Thank you for your support! In this segment, Senate talks about the challenges of juggling family, business, and health. He doesn’t believe in balance—instead, he believes in focusing on seasons. 🌱 For Senate, there are times when you focus on raising your kids, and other times when you shift gears to start a business or prioritize your health. Every season has its own priorities. 🏡💼 Senate shares his own journey—he wasn’t always fit, and his health took a hit during certain seasons. But now, as he’s focused on his fitness, he’s in the gym several days a week. His message? Don’t stress about balancing everything. Instead, focus on what matters in each season of life. 💪 He also discusses how creating synergy and alignment in your life can lead to greater success and peace of mind. It’s not about having it all together at once—it’s about embracing where you are in the moment. 🌟  #LifeSeasons #CreatingSynergy #EntrepreneurMindset *=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=* Thank you to all of our listeners!!!

Thank you for your support! In this episode, Hutch talks about the power of community in achieving your real estate goals. If you're looking to close your first acquisition, your competence often drives your confidence. But here's the thing—you don’t have to go it alone. 🏡💡 Whether you’re creating your own team or joining an existing one, surrounding yourself with like-minded individuals can help you level up faster. By collaborating with others who bring different strengths and skills to the table, you increase your chances of success and build the momentum you need to scale. 🚀 Hutch also dives into how family leadership plays a role in balancing entrepreneurship with parenting. While his kids are now adults, Hutch emphasizes that parenting is a lifelong journey. As an entrepreneur and investor, finding that balance becomes easier as they grow, but the support and leadership you give them remain essential. 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦💼 #RealEstateCommunity #TeamworkSuccess #EntrepreneurFamily *=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=* Thank you to all of our listeners!!!

Thank you for your support! In this episode, Senate breaks down the crucial first steps to take when looking to buy apartments. If you’re expecting mailbox money, it’s time to talk about passive investing. But if you’re ready to actively own and manage apartments, it starts with building the right team and taking action. 📈 Senate emphasizes that you don’t need to know the entire road before taking that first step. Just get to work—start analyzing deals, talking to brokers, and making offers. Action is key to momentum! 🚀 He also shares why community leadership is essential to his success as an investor. Whether it's through local meetups, serving on boards, or co-founding events, being deeply involved with his community helps him grow as an investor and educator. When you give back, you elevate yourself and others along the way.  #RealEstateAction #CommunityLeadership #InvestorMindset *=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=* Thank you to all of our listeners!!!

Thank you for your support! In this Focus round, Senate shares some personal insights. When he's not running deals or events, Senate loves golfing and enjoying cigars. 🏌️‍♂️🍂 He even finds joy in his work, making it all the more rewarding. The opportunity that changed his life? Network marketing! 🙌 It introduced him to personal development through mentors like Tony Robbins, Grant Cardone, and Ed Milet. Senate also highlights a key skill for success: asking intelligent questions. 🤔 Thinking critically is essential for every investor and entrepreneur. What does he wish he knew earlier? "Size doesn’t matter!" 📏 If you want big, aim big from the start—like going straight for a 200-unit apartment building. For Senate, true success isn’t about money—it’s about happiness and contentment. The real success is moments with family, like hearing his grandbaby’s belly laugh. 🏠❤️  #EntrepreneurMindset #PersonalDevelopment #RealEstateJourney *=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=* Thank you to all of our listeners!!!

Thank you for your support! In this episode, Senate shares powerful insights on how mindset drives success—not just in real estate, but in life! 🤔 One key takeaway? "We don’t wait to buy real estate. We buy real estate and wait." Patience and understanding market cycles are key to long-term success. But it’s more than making money—it’s about making an impact. 💥 Senate also talks about Zig Ziglar’s wisdom: "If you help enough people get what they want, you’ll get what you want." In real estate, especially in multifamily, helping others level up gives your life purpose. That's why waking up early to create content or build communities feels so rewarding. 🌱 It’s not just about wealth; it’s about connection and leadership. 🌟  #RealEstateMindset #LeadershipInBusiness #InvestInPeople *=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=* Thank you to all of our listeners!!!

Aloha, It’s Shelon "Hutch" Hutchinson here! If you’re enjoying 'The Multifamily Real Estate Experiment' podcast, please like, comment, and share our episodes to help us reach and inspire more people. Thank you for your support! In this section, Marvin explains that most problems in a deal can be worked through if they are disclosed early. What actually causes deals to fall apart is surprise. When something important shows up late in diligence, it creates doubt. Even if it was not intentional, trust starts to erode. And once trust slips, buyers begin asking a dangerous question. What else am I missing? Great leadership means telling the truth early, setting expectations clearly, and respecting the process. Transparency protects relationships, momentum, and outcomes. 🧠📄 Strong deals are built on trust long before signatures happen. #LeadershipMindset #BusinessStrategy #EntrepreneurLife *=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=* Thank you to all of our listeners!!!

Thank you for your support! In this episode, Marvin explains a mindset shift many owners miss. The biggest value is created when the owner steps out of daily operations and focuses on growth. When leadership is in place and the business runs efficiently enough, the most powerful lever left is simple. Go sell. Generate revenue. 🚀 Businesses that are prepared to scale give buyers a head start. They can move fast, build momentum, and focus on growth from day one instead of fixing foundations. Strong leadership is not just about building something that works. It is about building something that is ready. #LeadershipMindset #BusinessStrategy #EntrepreneurLife *=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=* Thank you to all of our listeners!!!

Aloha, It’s Shelon "Hutch" Hutchinson here! If you’re enjoying 'The Multifamily Real Estate Experiment' podcast, please like, comment, and share our episodes to help us reach and inspire more people. Thank you for your support! Marvin breaks it down simply. The only opinion that matters is the market’s. And the only way to learn what the market thinks is to ask it directly. Too many owners try to sell quietly, take the first offer, or treat a business sale like a passive listing. That approach leaves value on the table. Strong leadership means creating real demand, running a process with intention, and giving yourself options. 🏡🤝 If it is business or real estate, outcomes improve when you prepare properly, invite competition, and let the market do its job. #LeadershipMindset #EntrepreneurLife #BusinessStrategy *=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=* Thank you to all of our listeners!!!

Thank you for your support! In this focus round, Marvin gives quick answers that reveal a lot about how he lives and leads. From endurance sports and faith, to telling the truth and believing that building a company is possible, the theme is clear. Success is not about titles or ego. It is about effort, integrity, and helping others get the outcome that is best for them. 💪🤝 Sometimes the most powerful insights come from simple answers said with conviction. #LeadershipMindset #EntrepreneurLife #PersonalGrowth *=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=* Thank you to all of our listeners!!!

Thank you for your support! In this episode, Marvin shares a principle that shapes how he leads, parents, and builds businesses. Talent helps, but persistence is what carries people through the hard parts. Leadership often means doing the unglamorous work, staying committed, and taking responsibility all the way through. 🛠️ One of the strongest ideas in this episode is that success is not just about reaching the top. It is about completing the mission and coming back safely with everyone who depends on you. 🏔️🏠 That mindset changes how you lead, how you take risk, and how you think long term. #LeadershipMindset #BusinessLeadership #PersonalGrowth *=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=* Thank you to all of our listeners!!!

Thank you for your support! In this episode of the Multifamily Real Estate Experiment podcast, host Shalon Hutchinson welcomes Cory, a former structural engineer and founder of Freedom Investing Group, who transitioned into mobile home park operations. Cory shares his journey from a demanding engineering career to real estate investing, driven by his desire to spend more time with his family. Cory discusses the value-add potential of mobile home parks, including the significant impact on affordable housing and financial stability for investors. He dives into a near-catastrophic investment mistake that cost him a million dollars, highlighting the importance of diligent due diligence and personal resilience. Cory also offers insights into why mobile home parks outperform other asset classes and the profound social impact of improving and maintaining these communities. The episode emphasizes the significance of taking incremental steps towards large goals and the importance of trust, verification, and community impact in real estate investment. 00:00 Introduction and Guest Welcome 03:34 Cory's Journey from Engineering to Real Estate 05:57 Discovering Mobile Home Parks 10:47 The Value of Mobile Home Parks 16:16 Impact and Community Building 22:18 Challenges and Mistakes in Mobile Home Park Investments 22:41 Understanding Mobile Home Park Investments 23:18 The Pitfalls of Capitalizing Rental Income 25:16 A Million Dollar Mistake 25:41 The Wastewater Treatment Plant Disaster 30:42 Overcoming Financial and Operational Challenges 33:40 Lessons Learned and Moving Forward 37:26 Focus Round: Fun, Opportunities, and Skills 40:10 Defining Success and Making an Impact 40:57 Conclusion and Contact Information *=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=* Thank you to all of our listeners!!!

Aloha, It’s Shelon "Hutch" Hutchinson here! If you’re enjoying 'The Multifamily Real Estate Experiment' podcast, please like, comment, and share our episodes to help us reach and inspire more people. Thank you for your support! When Cory Harelson and his team took over their first mobile home park, they didn’t do anything flashy—they simply showed up, walked the property, talked to residents, and solved small problems that had been ignored. The feedback? “You guys actually care.” But this episode isn’t just about feel-good moments. Cory also shares one of the most common mistakes investors make when moving from apartments to mobile home parks: miscalculating value by capitalizing income from park-owned homes. That rent is tied to personal property, not real property—and banks won’t recognize it when underwriting a deal. If you’re chasing deals without understanding this difference, you might be overvaluing your investment and setting yourself up for trouble. The numbers matter—but so does doing right by the people living in these communities.   #MobileHomeParks #UnderwritingMatters #ImpactInvesting *=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=* Thank you to all of our listeners!!!

Thank you for your support! Cory Harelson explains one of the most overlooked opportunities in mobile home park investing It’s not that there’s no demand  It’s that filling lots takes effort, capital, and coordination — and many longtime owners just don’t bother But that’s where the upside lives You’re often buying based on current cash flow  not future potential  So when you fill those lots, renovate the homes, and raise net income  the value of the property jumps — and fast Cory breaks down how this works in commercial real estate  Why it’s different from single family homes  and how increasing income by $1 can create $15–$20 in new value It’s not magic  It’s math — and mindset.   #CashFlowStrategy #CommercialRealEstate #MobileHomeParks   *=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=* Thank you to all of our listeners!!!
