In the Realty Portal You’ll Have Access to the Following:

  • View pro formas for single family and multi family rental properties that property teams in each market have recently featured.

  • Connect with our preferred network of investor-friendly CPAs, lenders, 1031 exchange facilitators and more.
  • Connect 1-1 with an investment counselor who owns investment property and has experience in the markets we recommend.
  • Introductions to experienced property teams nationwide who can help you buy and manage property from anywhere (more on that below) .

Step 2: Connect with Experienced Property Teams Nationwide

When investing out of state, it can be difficult to know who you can trust. That’s where we come in… At RealWealth we work with a number of vetted property teams in select markets around the United States. When choosing these teams we focus on quality, not quantity. Having an endless list of deals to buy is convenient, but it could be short sighted. Our approach is relationship centric. As investors, we understand that our long term success with a real estate investment depends largely on the team we have working on our behalf. We know the property teams and property managers we refer to and they know us. Our vetting process is lengthy and rigorous and property teams receive continued positive feedback from our 70,000 members in order to remain on our list.

Step 3: You Choose Your Investments

At RealWealth We Offer the Following Types of Investments:

  • REAL Income Properties™: Properties that conform to RealWealth’s REAL Income Property™ standards. These properties have been rehabbed within the last 12 months before being marketed for sale.
  • Rental Resale Properties: Properties that do not conform to RealWealth’s REAL Income Property™ standards. Additionally, these properties may not have been rehabbed in the last 12 months.
  • New Construction Properties: Properties that are brand new and usually purchased directly from a builder. Some teams that RealWealth works with are the builder or developer themselves and others have identified local builders who are building tenant optimized properties. Some of these properties are sold in the pre-construction phase, which means they could take several months to complete, and most are located on infill lot locations.
  • Group Investments & Syndications: To learn more about these options, visit the RealWealth Developments Portal.

If you are doing a 1031 exchange:

Take caution when identifying a property that is under construction or currently being rehabbed because it might not be ready by your deadline. Ensure that the property team knows your 1031 deadlines and account for the possibility of delays.

Step 4: Enjoy Real Wealth

We define real wealth as having both the money and the freedom to live life on your own terms. In our opinion, the best way to achieve this type of wealth is by owning income producing assets, specifically real estate.

Although today, cash flow is not nearly as good as it used to be, savvy investors are still buying. Unlike many newbies, experienced investors realize that things are always changing and they understand that it’s essential to look at the total return on an investment instead of cash flow or appreciation alone.

Remember, in many cases you’ll be purchasing a property and taking out a 30-year fixed mortgage. This gives you a long time for property values and the rents to go up while your costs stay relatively flat. In other words, the numbers may look worse now, and they will likely improve over time.

Long story short, it’s important to learn how to recognize when continued growth is most likely to happen in a particular market and buy now instead of losing out on opportunities by waiting for things to change. After all, success in real estate is less about timing the market and more about time IN the market.

How RealWealth Makes Money

At RealWealth, we believe that education should be free! We therefore do not charge for any educational webinars, articles, blogs, or podcasts. However, like all businesses, we do need to make money to be able to support our members and employees. We do this in three primary ways.

The 3 Ways RealWealth Makes Money:

  • Broker To Broker Referral Agreements: RealWealth is a licensed brokerage in California. When we refer a member to a property team and that member chooses to purchase an investment through them, we receive a predetermined broker to broker referral fee from the proceeds of the sale. There is NO additional cost to the investor.
  • Sponsorships: We have curated a list of key resource partners that can help you with your real estate investments. This includes mortgage companies and brokers, CPAs/Accountants, Attorneys, Insurance companies, etc. We select these resource partners based on their expertise and our internal vetting process. Once approved, resource partners pay to advertise on our site and teach informational classes to our members. This allows us to offer our members FREE classes caught by subject matter experts.
  • Books: Our founders, Rich and Kathy Fettke are pretty awesome and they have both written fantastic books. Kathy’s book, Retire Rich with Rentals and Rich’s book, The Wise Investor are both available wherever books are sold.
