Hey @Jesse Badoe! You can either submit this question in the chat when we get on the Zoom, or I can note it and ask him during Q&A for you! Look forward to having you on!

Our virtual meetup is tomorrow, Wednesday, July 15th at 6:30 pm and I highly recommend not missing this one!

This month, we are beyond excited to have one of the largest investors in self-storage in the U.S., AJ Osbourne, speak to us as we continue our series on alternative methods of real estate investing.

AJ is an Idaho-based investor that owns and operates over 1 million square feet of self-storage. He has been on the BiggerPockets podcast twice (#286 and #388) and has an incredible story about how he built his real estate business (which focuses on self-storage facilities) as a way to transition his family from rich to wealthy. AJ experienced a tragic health emergency that debilitated him for months, and is an expert on the value of documenting, delegating, and streamlining your real estate business so it can run without you.

AJ will also go over:

• How to find underperforming real estate deals
• How a loss on his first deal directly led to millions of dollars in later profit
• How he made $13,000,000 in equity on one deal

The entire niche of self-storage is fascinating, but even if it isn't you thing, all of the concepts still apply.

We expect a large turnout so make sure you reserve your spot by clicking the link below. YOU MUST REGISTER AHEAD OF TIME TO GAIN ACCESS.

Hey y'all!

Our meetup is virtual again (Zoom details at the bottom) on this Wednesday, June 17th at 6:30 pm and I hope you can make it, this one you won't want to miss!

This month, we are thrilled to have Ben Day with Lionshare Bookkeeping speak about "being the bridge" between your CPA and your Banker. Now I know bookkeeping isn't most people's favorite topic, but here's why you NEED to be here. Ben has developed a system to show us how to be the bridge between our tax returns and our bankers. Why is that important? Ben is going to show us how to not have to pay a ton in taxes (I.e. taking all the deductions we can), while also showing an income to continue getting loans to run our businesses buying properties. He is also going to show us how to put a system in place to organize the finance side of our businesses which can lead to huge gains for business growth.

If you'd like to read more about Ben, his bio is below:

Ben graduated from The University of Oklahoma in 2015 with bachelors degrees in accounting and music. He founded Lionshare Bookkeeping in April 2017. On the music side, he has performed in international festivals and recorded a variety of music genres. He is also an Eagle Scout, Certified Pyrotechnician with the ATF, and Brew Genius.

On Christmas Eve 2016, he found out that his gig as an executive assistant in the music industry had disappeared overnight. Over the next four months, he decided that it was high time to became his own boss. He found a coach, and started Lionshare Bookkeeping. At the recommendation of his dad (who is currently the president of a community bank that largely deals in single family “fix-and-rent” construction loans) he started focusing on solving the accounting and finance issues that landlords and house-flippers run into every day.

Today, Lionshare Bookkeeping serves real estateinvestors across the country. He also works as a coach and instructor for new bookkeeping businesses inside of bookkeepers.com, and as an investor and hard money broker with Rex Capital Group.
