I am planning to use a HELOC, Home Equity Loan, or Home Equity Investment HEI as part of the down payment for an SMB acquisition. I get that this is not for everyone, but if you were in this position, how would you access your home equity for a business purpose?
Mortgage defaults are accelerating.
BIGGEST jump in Bank & Power of Sales since I started tracking last year.
TRREB just blew through the 200 mark and ITSO through the 100.

I bought 50% of a business 1.5 years ago, and it’ll do $2-3M of free cash-flow this year.
I got paid back my original investment in 6 months.
It got me thinking...
This is the golden era to buy a venture-backed business.
Startups are going OUT OF BUSINESS left, right and…

I’ve always wondered how CEOs run billion-dollar companies and thought "Could I do that?"
Then I learned from a friend at Salesforce how Marc Benioff does it with his executive team, and it blew my mind how simple it was.
Here’s how he does it:
1) Each team leader submits a…
My rules for being a founder (after selling 3 companies):
- Pay your invoices fast. People appreciate it

Great news! I was skeptical, but I just received confirmation from a lender that they've been able to get new $5 million loan SBA-approved for different NAICs for Personal Guarantors who've already maxed out their $5 million SBA.
Different NAICS, frees up another $5 million.
Don't listen to the Gurus, single family rental cashflow won't replace your income!
I made $473 cashflow off $344,000 in rental income in 2023.

I wanted to be in business to make money of course.

I started my business career in early 2005 at age 27 as a receptionist.
At 31 I was living in my mother-in-law's basement with my wife because we couldn't afford an apartment.
I didn’t make $100k for the first time until I was 33.
I didn't make my first investment until I was…
I’m actively seeking to acquire a mortgage company, preferably in Hawaii, but open to opportunities in other locations too. Thanks in advance for any leads or insights!
Here is a critical cash-management approach used throughout our businesses.
My dad (and many SMB owners in his generation) has a strong conviction that:
(1) all debt is bad; and
(2) businesses should carry a lot of cash
What I think my dad was really saying is that our…
SMB acquisitions are the most powerful wealth-generating vehicles on earth
