But the most useful information has always 37 00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:02,760 Speaker 2: been the practical day to day stuff that the everyday 38 00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:06,960 Speaker 2: person can go out tomorrow and execute in their real life. 39 00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:10,400 Speaker 2: Whether it's how to open how to open a brokera account, 40 00:02:10,639 --> 00:02:13,200 Speaker 2: to buy stocks, how to start a five to twenty 41 00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:15,800 Speaker 2: nine plan, to save money for your kid, how to 42 00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:18,960 Speaker 2: you know, get a mobile home, how to get a 43 00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:25,040 Speaker 2: vending machine.

We talk about real estate a lot, but 46 00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:34,240 Speaker 2: this is a topic that we really haven't talked about 47 00:02:34,280 --> 00:02:38,280 Speaker 2: in depth. So there's a KNAKA program in a c 48 00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:40,240 Speaker 2: A knacka. 49 00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:44,000 Speaker 1: Nonprofit community advocacy and home ownership organization for those. 50 00:02:43,880 --> 00:02:48,000 Speaker 2: Not KNAKA is a program that allows first time home 51 00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:51,600 Speaker 2: buyers to get a home.

And this is why I like 90 00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:30,760 Speaker 2: to interview people like this as well, because it's one 91 00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:33,039 Speaker 2: thing to have somebody from the program speak about it, 92 00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:35,680 Speaker 2: but it's always beneficial from somebody that actually just went 93 00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:39,640 Speaker 2: through the program himself and had success. So he actually 94 00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:43,400 Speaker 2: went through the program, has success with the program, and 95 00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:46,520 Speaker 2: now he's an advocate for the program, and you know, 96 00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:52,520 Speaker 2: he teaches people and provides information about best practices on 97 00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:56,279 Speaker 2: how you can utilize the program so you can become 98 00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:59,760 Speaker 2: a homeowner. So yeah, first he had experience. Is not 99 00:04:59,800 --> 00:05:02,440 Speaker 2: like something somebody like, you know, teaching out of a textbook. 100 00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:04,920 Speaker 2: It's like the real life. This is what I did. 101 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:07,080 Speaker 2: There's some mistakes that I made. This is things that 102 00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:10,040 Speaker 2: I did that you know, you should learn about, and 103 00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:12,640 Speaker 2: it's something that you know a lot of people have 104 00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:14,280 Speaker 2: been able to gain help from. 105 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:16,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's one of those things. And like if you've 106 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:19,039 Speaker 1: been in the real estate space, a lot of loan 107 00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:21,520 Speaker 1: officers don't know as much information as the people who 108 00:05:21,560 --> 00:05:24,039 Speaker 1: are actually going through it. So in order to you know, 109 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:26,880 Speaker 1: understand it, going through the trials is part of it. 110 00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:30,920 Speaker 1: So I'm sure that you're educating loan offices and people progress. 111 00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:35,000 Speaker 4: Agents because everybody, because it's a man a program, is 112 00:05:35,040 --> 00:05:37,120 Speaker 4: so little known and I feel like a program like 113 00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:39,320 Speaker 4: this will just be known across the nation, just like 114 00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:41,960 Speaker 4: by everybody. But now is also a non for profit, 115 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:44,440 Speaker 4: so they don't do any marketing. That's why they have 116 00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:47,240 Speaker 4: a clause in their program that once you go through 117 00:05:47,279 --> 00:05:48,440 Speaker 4: the program, you know what I mean, you kind of 118 00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:50,159 Speaker 4: got to advocate for the program because they don't have 119 00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 4: marketing dollars, so you have to go out and tell 120 00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:52,960 Speaker 4: people about the program. 121 00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:54,880 Speaker 3: And at this point, I've become. 122 00:05:54,640 --> 00:05:58,279 Speaker 4: Like their biggest You're doing your due diligence way more 123 00:05:58,320 --> 00:05:59,320 Speaker 4: than my due diligence. 124 00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:01,200 Speaker 2: Yeah. 125 00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 3: So, first and foremost, thank you for joining us, and 126 00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:05,640 Speaker 3: I appreciate you all having me on.

From there I went and deal, 338 00:14:54,640 --> 00:14:57,440 Speaker 3: she said, and just life life. 339 00:14:58,840 --> 00:14:59,760 Speaker 1: Now you're spokesperson. 340 00:15:01,480 --> 00:15:03,400 Speaker 2: So let's start at the beginning with NAKA. So I 341 00:15:03,520 --> 00:15:06,400 Speaker 2: first been introduced to NAKO in my sister was actually 342 00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:12,000 Speaker 2: going through the program with her late husband at the time, 343 00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:14,760 Speaker 2: and there was like a seminar that they had to 344 00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:16,520 Speaker 2: go through, and I was learning I had never heard 345 00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:21,080 Speaker 2: about the program before that they didn't actually go always 346 00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:23,000 Speaker 2: through with the program, which I find a lot of 347 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:26,480 Speaker 2: people don't. The retention is so a lot of people 348 00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:28,760 Speaker 2: have criticized NACA because they're like, it's a lot that 349 00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:32,840 Speaker 2: you got to go through. It's very strenuous. So what's 350 00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:36,240 Speaker 2: the first step in the KNACKER process. 351 00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:37,320 Speaker 3: Like you said, going to that meeting. 352 00:15:37,320 --> 00:15:39,200 Speaker 2: It's about three or four hours and that's all over 353 00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:39,720 Speaker 2: the country, right. 354 00:15:39,840 --> 00:15:42,400 Speaker 4: Yeah, they pretty much break down everything, all of the 355 00:15:42,440 --> 00:15:44,720 Speaker 4: benefits of the program, the things that you have to do, 356 00:15:44,840 --> 00:15:46,920 Speaker 4: the rules for the program, things you can't do to 357 00:15:46,960 --> 00:15:50,880 Speaker 4: the program. And yeah, from there, you know, you sign 358 00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:53,080 Speaker 4: up and let them know what date you want to 359 00:15:53,080 --> 00:15:55,360 Speaker 4: meet with a mortgage counselor it could be up to 360 00:15:55,400 --> 00:15:57,320 Speaker 4: two years out, it could be up to two weeks out, 361 00:15:57,360 --> 00:15:59,760 Speaker 4: but you put whatever date when you're comfortable. I tell 362 00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:02,360 Speaker 4: people all the time, don't go into you're ready. You 363 00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:04,440 Speaker 4: know what I'm saying, Don't go into your like all 364 00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:06,200 Speaker 4: the way ready, don't go just trying to see what 365 00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:08,680 Speaker 4: they gonna say and all that, like you know, test 366 00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:10,800 Speaker 4: the program, Like, no, go when you're ready, when you 367 00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:13,080 Speaker 4: know you have your documentation order, you got your two 368 00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:15,160 Speaker 4: years work history and order, you got your two years 369 00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:18,120 Speaker 4: tax history and audio bank statements order like these are 370 00:16:18,160 --> 00:16:22,000 Speaker 4: things that all lenders require, not just NAKA. So it's 371 00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:23,920 Speaker 4: like you shouldn't be going to a lender any unless 372 00:16:23,960 --> 00:16:26,440 Speaker 4: you have this stuff in order anyway. But NACA is 373 00:16:26,480 --> 00:16:30,480 Speaker 4: just extra strict about their documentation because essentially, you're going 374 00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:33,600 Speaker 4: to these people asking them for hundreds of thousands of 375 00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:37,240 Speaker 4: dollars for absolutely nothing. Your credit ain't shit, you ain't 376 00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:40,360 Speaker 4: really shit, like you know what I'm saying, like most 377 00:16:40,400 --> 00:16:43,320 Speaker 4: of the time for real time, like, but these people 378 00:16:43,320 --> 00:16:45,480 Speaker 4: are still willing to give you a chance. Most lenders, 379 00:16:45,480 --> 00:16:47,520 Speaker 4: when you go to them in that situation, what they're 380 00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:49,480 Speaker 4: doing they're closing, doing your face and giving you a 381 00:16:49,520 --> 00:16:50,680 Speaker 4: decline letter NAKA. 382 00:16:50,720 --> 00:16:52,680 Speaker 3: They're gonna give you a checklist of things to do 383 00:16:52,960 --> 00:16:53,880 Speaker 3: until you to come back. 384 00:16:53,920 --> 00:16:57,040 Speaker 4: When you have those things done, your ID with them 385 00:16:57,120 --> 00:16:59,200 Speaker 4: is still gonna be intacked, your foul with them still 386 00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:01,640 Speaker 4: gonna be attack. You're gonna be able to update documents 387 00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:03,560 Speaker 4: and send stuff in, but they're just not going to 388 00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:04,560 Speaker 4: qualify you for a. 389 00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:07,200 Speaker 3: Loan until you get things marked off that checklist. 390 00:17:07,240 --> 00:17:10,920 Speaker 1: So it's a pretty strenuous checklist. So it's not IT'SANUD, 391 00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:12,960 Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. Like people, most people with the 392 00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:15,520 Speaker 1: common misconception. It's like yo, I've seen people say yo, 393 00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:18,000 Speaker 1: I tried twice and I just can't get through it. 394 00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:20,360 Speaker 1: What is it? Is it the fact that they don't 395 00:17:20,800 --> 00:17:23,879 Speaker 1: have that profile that you just spoke about intact, or like, 396 00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:25,680 Speaker 1: what is the thing that is blocking people? 397 00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:26,359 Speaker 3: To me? 398 00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:28,199 Speaker 4: A lot of times it was my own fault. I 399 00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:32,240 Speaker 4: was getting in my own way, Like so just my mentality, 400 00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:34,000 Speaker 4: you know what I mean. So I'm you know, pointing 401 00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:36,120 Speaker 4: a finger at them. Like a lot of times they'll 402 00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:38,200 Speaker 4: be like, man, send us this document. 403 00:17:37,840 --> 00:17:39,080 Speaker 3: Or can you resend this? 404 00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:40,760 Speaker 4: And I would get mad and frustrated and want to 405 00:17:40,800 --> 00:17:42,800 Speaker 4: go back and forth and say of just sending the document, 406 00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:43,760 Speaker 4: like you know what I mean, So what if you 407 00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:46,520 Speaker 4: got to send it twice? Like it's just stuff, get lost, stuff, 408 00:17:46,520 --> 00:17:48,040 Speaker 4: get caught up in you know what I'm saying? Things 409 00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:50,000 Speaker 4: like that, And then too a lot of times people 410 00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:53,560 Speaker 4: get really frustrated because what they don't understand is KNAKA 411 00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:57,399 Speaker 4: is extremely understaffed. They're non for profit, they're understaffed, and 412 00:17:57,400 --> 00:18:00,240 Speaker 4: they're overworked. And then you got a person like me 413 00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:04,160 Speaker 4: out here screaming from the mountaintops on eyl where there's 414 00:18:04,240 --> 00:18:06,720 Speaker 4: millions of people following, Hey y'all, y'all can go get 415 00:18:06,760 --> 00:18:08,920 Speaker 4: y'all MAULTI unit with the knack of program So now 416 00:18:08,960 --> 00:18:11,680 Speaker 4: there's this rush of people going to the knack of programming. 417 00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:14,080 Speaker 3: Now they're even more overwork than more overwhelmed. 418 00:18:14,119 --> 00:18:15,800 Speaker 4: So it's like there has to be a level of 419 00:18:15,840 --> 00:18:19,080 Speaker 4: patience and understanding when you're taking advantage of a program 420 00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:21,320 Speaker 4: like this and just really getting like, all right, cool, 421 00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:24,720 Speaker 4: I know if I exercise patients at the end of 422 00:18:24,760 --> 00:18:28,040 Speaker 4: all of this, there won't be anything better out there 423 00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:31,440 Speaker 4: for me. So I made a real the other day 424 00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:35,320 Speaker 4: that said, I compare Naka to Tom Brady and Jordan. 425 00:18:35,560 --> 00:18:37,840 Speaker 4: They're not the biggest, they're not the strongest, they're not 426 00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:40,720 Speaker 4: the fastest, but they're the best in the clutch when 427 00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:42,600 Speaker 4: it comes to the closing table.

It's just like, man, oh the time 566 00:24:04,800 --> 00:24:08,280 Speaker 4: and a patience thing. And again, no, even in sports, 567 00:24:08,440 --> 00:24:11,359 Speaker 4: you're when you're dealing with hundreds of thousands, millions of dollars, 568 00:24:11,560 --> 00:24:12,919 Speaker 4: These things take time. 569 00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:14,600 Speaker 3: These things take time. 570 00:24:14,760 --> 00:24:17,600 Speaker 4: And most times when you hear, like I say, about 571 00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:20,440 Speaker 4: somebody getting offered like a big contract, you hear about 572 00:24:20,440 --> 00:24:22,880 Speaker 4: them turning the contract down or just not working out 573 00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:24,080 Speaker 4: or the deal going bad. 574 00:24:24,119 --> 00:24:26,720 Speaker 3: Like this is business. This is just how business works. 575 00:24:26,760 --> 00:24:28,800 Speaker 4: Like I said, there are times when you can do 576 00:24:28,920 --> 00:24:31,360 Speaker 4: everything right and stuff just still won't go your way, 577 00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:32,919 Speaker 4: like it just and then what do you do? Like 578 00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:34,520 Speaker 4: you have to get back on the ground. You gotta 579 00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:36,359 Speaker 4: get back to it. You can't let it discourage you. 580 00:24:36,680 --> 00:24:41,040 Speaker 4: And a lot of times people get emotional about these things. 581 00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:43,240 Speaker 4: That's why you hear so much slander because like now 582 00:24:43,280 --> 00:24:45,240 Speaker 4: you're mad, Oh Nakaa. 583 00:24:44,920 --> 00:24:46,000 Speaker 3: Did this to you and not Couna did. 584 00:24:46,040 --> 00:24:48,480 Speaker 4: That's no, you just quit, like you know what I'm saying, 585 00:24:48,480 --> 00:24:50,680 Speaker 4: You quit the process essentially, because if you would have 586 00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:53,240 Speaker 4: stayed down, you would have came up. Because that's what 587 00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:56,320 Speaker 4: I did, and that's what my ex did, and that's 588 00:24:56,359 --> 00:24:58,399 Speaker 4: what my you know what I mean friends did. Like 589 00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:01,200 Speaker 4: that's what I've helped so many people this program who listen. 590 00:25:01,400 --> 00:25:03,240 Speaker 4: But it's this it's a mindset thing, you know what 591 00:25:03,240 --> 00:25:05,120 Speaker 4: I'm saying. Most people don't have their mindset in order, 592 00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:07,560 Speaker 4: Like I say, it's entitlement. You feel like you owed something. 593 00:25:07,600 --> 00:25:09,600 Speaker 4: It's like, nah, man, you got to go earn everything 594 00:25:09,600 --> 00:25:12,160 Speaker 4: that you need that you got out here, from property 595 00:25:12,320 --> 00:25:15,680 Speaker 4: to business customers, Like you have to go and earn 596 00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:17,360 Speaker 4: these things. You have to go and show and prove. 597 00:25:17,440 --> 00:25:19,439 Speaker 4: You have to like do what you need to do 598 00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:21,920 Speaker 4: in order to make things happen. And most people operate 599 00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:24,000 Speaker 4: in the space of instant gratification. And I think the 600 00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:25,960 Speaker 4: Internet has a lot to do with that because you 601 00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:28,960 Speaker 4: see people doing so well, and you see people accomplishing things, 602 00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:31,720 Speaker 4: and you see more of the celebratory moments online. You 603 00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:34,880 Speaker 4: don't see the hard, behind the scenes grind that it took. 604 00:25:34,960 --> 00:25:35,760 Speaker 3: You don't see. 605 00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:38,280 Speaker 4: The offers that I put in and you know what 606 00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:40,480 Speaker 4: I mean, got turned down or got beat out by 607 00:25:40,600 --> 00:25:43,040 Speaker 4: cash offers. You didn't see the time we're almost lost 608 00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:45,720 Speaker 4: ten thousand dollars in earn this money because you know 609 00:25:45,720 --> 00:25:49,479 Speaker 4: what I mean, the contractors didn't do what they were 610 00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:51,480 Speaker 4: supposed to do and give me the proper estimates. Just 611 00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:53,359 Speaker 4: like it's a lot of things behind the scenes that 612 00:25:53,400 --> 00:25:57,040 Speaker 4: people just don't know. And practicing patience and understanding how 613 00:25:57,040 --> 00:26:00,439 Speaker 4: this process goes will make your life and just your 614 00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:03,159 Speaker 4: process way easier when it comes to stuff and just 615 00:26:03,200 --> 00:26:05,920 Speaker 4: a lot less stressful because it's like, it's not easy. 616 00:26:05,920 --> 00:26:08,960 Speaker 4: It's a super stressful process, regardless of whether it's Naka 617 00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:12,240 Speaker 4: Faha conventional. It's a it's a process, man, And I 618 00:26:12,280 --> 00:26:13,600 Speaker 4: don't think people understand. 619 00:26:13,240 --> 00:26:14,840 Speaker 1: They gotta be ready for the long run. You said 620 00:26:14,840 --> 00:26:17,240 Speaker 1: when you spoke to your friend who recommended Knaka to you, 621 00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:20,000 Speaker 1: that you had ten thousand dollars, and so a lot 622 00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:22,080 Speaker 1: of times when people here Knaka and they had no 623 00:26:22,119 --> 00:26:24,680 Speaker 1: doubt payment, they think, oh, you need no money. That's 624 00:26:24,720 --> 00:26:26,959 Speaker 1: not just like that's like one of these misconceptions like, oh, 625 00:26:27,000 --> 00:26:29,320 Speaker 1: it's no money down, My credit can be six twenty, 626 00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:31,960 Speaker 1: but you need you need money to be in a program. 627 00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:36,080 Speaker 3: I mean any any any mortgage that you're gonna get. 628 00:26:36,119 --> 00:26:39,200 Speaker 4: You're going to have things you have to pay for, taxes, insurance, 629 00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:41,479 Speaker 4: like all of those kind of things. In addition to that, 630 00:26:41,840 --> 00:26:44,680 Speaker 4: Naka wants you to have a specific amount of money 631 00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:47,000 Speaker 4: saved up. Me I personally try to tell people save 632 00:26:47,040 --> 00:26:49,399 Speaker 4: about three and a half percent of the loan amount 633 00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:51,840 Speaker 4: that you're looking for, because that covers your taxes, insurance, 634 00:26:52,200 --> 00:26:53,960 Speaker 4: and it should cover you know what, I mean the 635 00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:57,080 Speaker 4: cushion of a few months that they require you to 636 00:26:57,160 --> 00:26:59,359 Speaker 4: have as well, because what they don't want to happen 637 00:26:59,440 --> 00:27:01,280 Speaker 4: is for you to be house rich and cash poor 638 00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:04,240 Speaker 4: because a lot of times what tends to happen to 639 00:27:04,240 --> 00:27:07,119 Speaker 4: people is they'll, you know, pay their down payment fees. 640 00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:09,240 Speaker 4: All of those different things you done came out of 641 00:27:09,280 --> 00:27:11,560 Speaker 4: twenty twenty five thousand dollars or whatever the case. Merk, 642 00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:15,760 Speaker 4: You've just spent thirty years of your life saving this money. 643 00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:18,480 Speaker 4: Now you just gave it away. Now you have this house, 644 00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:21,000 Speaker 4: and when something goes wrong with this house a roof issue, 645 00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:23,119 Speaker 4: a plumbing issue, you don't you can't fix it. You 646 00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:25,960 Speaker 4: don't have the money to fix it, and they don't 647 00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:27,640 Speaker 4: want you to do that. So they set you up 648 00:27:27,680 --> 00:27:30,040 Speaker 4: to whereas you have money, they set you up to 649 00:27:30,080 --> 00:27:32,040 Speaker 4: whereas if you go get a multi unit, you got 650 00:27:32,080 --> 00:27:33,960 Speaker 4: cash flow coming in because they make sure the numbers 651 00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:36,240 Speaker 4: fall right all of those different things. And this is 652 00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:38,439 Speaker 4: why I love them, because they protected me throughout the 653 00:27:38,480 --> 00:27:41,359 Speaker 4: whole process. There were times where contractors tried to do 654 00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:43,360 Speaker 4: food food shit, they're just different stuff, and that could 655 00:27:43,440 --> 00:27:45,560 Speaker 4: just like ran interference on all that, Like, nah, we're 656 00:27:45,560 --> 00:27:47,960 Speaker 4: not going for that at times, like somebody try to 657 00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:50,399 Speaker 4: sell you a four unit building but the building is 658 00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:52,280 Speaker 4: on his own for three units in the garden. 659 00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:54,680 Speaker 3: Unit or the basement unit would be like illegal. 660 00:27:54,800 --> 00:27:56,480 Speaker 4: But knaka, well, you know they gonna go do their 661 00:27:56,560 --> 00:27:59,000 Speaker 4: due diligence and you know what I mean, like check 662 00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:00,920 Speaker 4: you know, city record because and all that make sure 663 00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:03,159 Speaker 4: all of this stuff is owned and approved correctly, and 664 00:28:03,240 --> 00:28:04,400 Speaker 4: a lot of times like it don't. 665 00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:06,120 Speaker 3: And they protect you from all that stuff. 666 00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:08,240 Speaker 1: Even in your own personal right, Like I was reading that. 667 00:28:08,280 --> 00:28:11,679 Speaker 1: They'll check your patterns, right, They'll check your rent patterns, 668 00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:14,200 Speaker 1: they'll check your savings patterns. So it's not like hey, 669 00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:16,600 Speaker 1: they look at how much you were paying, how much 670 00:28:16,760 --> 00:28:19,040 Speaker 1: you make, and they'll say, well, that money could be saved. 671 00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:23,479 Speaker 1: So having that as an important system makes sense, right 672 00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:24,919 Speaker 1: because it's like you don't want to make sure, like 673 00:28:24,920 --> 00:28:27,000 Speaker 1: you don't want to have it where I say five hundred, 674 00:28:27,040 --> 00:28:28,680 Speaker 1: then I saved nothing for three months and I put 675 00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:32,520 Speaker 1: three thousand. They're watching that to make sure that they can. 676 00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:34,880 Speaker 4: Making sure you got good good money spend like good 677 00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:38,000 Speaker 4: money habits like and this is and it's not bad, 678 00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:39,880 Speaker 4: like you should want to have good money happen. You 679 00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:42,200 Speaker 4: should appreciate this kind of training, like, Okay, I need 680 00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:44,960 Speaker 4: this because I've been not disciplined for the longest amount 681 00:28:44,960 --> 00:28:47,240 Speaker 4: of time and now I have somebody challenging me to 682 00:28:47,280 --> 00:28:47,560 Speaker 4: do better. 683 00:28:47,600 --> 00:28:48,480 Speaker 3: Why wouldn't you want that? 684 00:28:48,840 --> 00:28:51,360 Speaker 2: So they approve you for you come with your information, 685 00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:52,880 Speaker 2: Da da da. They put it in the system and 686 00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:56,080 Speaker 2: they say, Okay, you're based off of what we think 687 00:28:56,200 --> 00:28:58,560 Speaker 2: you can get a two hundred thousand dollars more. 688 00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:00,600 Speaker 4: If you're going for a single family home, yes, but 689 00:29:00,600 --> 00:29:02,800 Speaker 4: that's not how it works with multi units. Okay, with 690 00:29:02,920 --> 00:29:06,040 Speaker 4: multi units, how it works is even with NAKA, so 691 00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:08,640 Speaker 4: they have limits. So with a single family home, which 692 00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:10,840 Speaker 4: is these are examples, it depends on what area you're in. 693 00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:12,760 Speaker 4: They'll give you a max. So let's say a single 694 00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:14,480 Speaker 4: family home, they might give you a max two hundred 695 00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:16,200 Speaker 4: thousand two unit. They might give you a max a 696 00:29:16,240 --> 00:29:18,120 Speaker 4: three fifty three unit. They might give you a max 697 00:29:18,120 --> 00:29:20,160 Speaker 4: a six hundred on a four unit, they'll give you 698 00:29:20,160 --> 00:29:21,880 Speaker 4: a max of like nine hundred and nine to fifty 699 00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:24,840 Speaker 4: or something like that. So for me, I'm like, why 700 00:29:24,920 --> 00:29:26,840 Speaker 4: not max out and go crazy? If I'm trying to 701 00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:29,160 Speaker 4: go get me a rental property, I'm gonna get four units. 702 00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:30,840 Speaker 4: The four units are gonna make sure I have a 703 00:29:30,840 --> 00:29:32,600 Speaker 4: place to live for free. Is gonna make sure my 704 00:29:33,120 --> 00:29:35,360 Speaker 4: mortgage is paid on top of steel having some money 705 00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:36,880 Speaker 4: at the end of the month's cash flow. 706 00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:38,120 Speaker 3: So I'm gonna do that. 707 00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:39,880 Speaker 4: On top of that, it's going to allow me to 708 00:29:39,920 --> 00:29:42,040 Speaker 4: go for a bigger mortgage, which is gonna put me 709 00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:44,960 Speaker 4: in a nicer neighborhood, you know what I'm saying. In 710 00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:47,320 Speaker 4: addition to that, if I go find a four unit 711 00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:49,840 Speaker 4: in a nice neighborhood, that means the rents are gonna 712 00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:52,120 Speaker 4: be high. You know what I mean, because that's just 713 00:29:52,120 --> 00:29:53,760 Speaker 4: what it is. When you live in nice neighborhoods, you 714 00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:56,960 Speaker 4: got higher rents and apartments are nice. So how KNAKA 715 00:29:57,080 --> 00:29:59,960 Speaker 4: qualifies you or lenders qualify you in general for multi 716 00:30:00,120 --> 00:30:03,360 Speaker 4: units is totally different than they do for single family homes. 717 00:30:03,520 --> 00:30:06,800 Speaker 4: A single family home, you're qualified strictly using your income. 718 00:30:07,080 --> 00:30:09,800 Speaker 4: When it comes to multifamilies, and this is why I 719 00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:12,240 Speaker 4: tell people, go find you a multifamily that has people 720 00:30:12,240 --> 00:30:14,600 Speaker 4: living in it already, because what they do is they'll 721 00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:17,480 Speaker 4: take seventy five percent of the income that the property 722 00:30:17,520 --> 00:30:20,840 Speaker 4: is generating already added to yours, and that is what 723 00:30:20,920 --> 00:30:23,560 Speaker 4: makes the property more than affordable. For example, this is 724 00:30:23,560 --> 00:30:25,520 Speaker 4: what I like to tell people. So let's say you 725 00:30:25,600 --> 00:30:28,000 Speaker 4: make two thousand dollars a month at your job, right, 726 00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:30,120 Speaker 4: and the mortgage on this property you're looking at is 727 00:30:30,160 --> 00:30:32,239 Speaker 4: three thousand dollars. Of course you can afford it. You're 728 00:30:32,240 --> 00:30:34,600 Speaker 4: a thousand dollars short. But let's say the property that 729 00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:37,400 Speaker 4: you're looking at also generates four thousand dollars a month 730 00:30:37,480 --> 00:30:41,040 Speaker 4: in rent. They'll take three thousand dollars of dot add 731 00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:42,080 Speaker 4: it to your two thousand. 732 00:30:42,280 --> 00:30:45,120 Speaker 3: Now that's five thousand. Subtract three thousand from that. 733 00:30:45,280 --> 00:30:47,280 Speaker 4: Now you have two thousand dollars left over at the 734 00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:49,480 Speaker 4: end of the month, which makes this property way more 735 00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:52,360 Speaker 4: than affordable. On top of they only use seventy five 736 00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:54,440 Speaker 4: percent of the rent, they're still twenty five percent. That's 737 00:30:54,440 --> 00:30:57,480 Speaker 4: still there. You get what I'm saying to you. So like, 738 00:30:57,640 --> 00:31:00,360 Speaker 4: that's that's how the multi unit math works. And people 739 00:31:00,360 --> 00:31:01,880 Speaker 4: don't understand that, and they're like. 740 00:31:01,920 --> 00:31:04,360 Speaker 3: I can't afford a multi unit. It's so expensive. How 741 00:31:04,400 --> 00:31:05,560 Speaker 3: do you afford a multi unit? 742 00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:07,560 Speaker 4: And you're making twenty six thousand dollars a year because 743 00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:09,840 Speaker 4: I understand how multi unit math works. And I went 744 00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:12,000 Speaker 4: and found me property that had high rents and cash 745 00:31:12,040 --> 00:31:14,680 Speaker 4: flowing already, and all I have to do is pretty 746 00:31:14,720 --> 00:31:16,480 Speaker 4: much sign a paperwork and move in. 747 00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:20,360 Speaker 1: So you found the property yourself. Didn't apply for the program, right, 748 00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:22,240 Speaker 1: So does it when you apply for it? Does it 749 00:31:22,280 --> 00:31:24,960 Speaker 1: have to be primary residents? How does that work? 750 00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:25,200 Speaker 3: Yeah? 751 00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:27,680 Speaker 4: So you do have to live in a property for 752 00:31:27,720 --> 00:31:29,640 Speaker 4: the life of the loan, But NAKA has a five 753 00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:33,160 Speaker 4: year leaning on a property because they're not designed to, 754 00:31:33,480 --> 00:31:36,160 Speaker 4: you know, create investors. They're designed to balance our neighborhood. 755 00:31:36,160 --> 00:31:38,120 Speaker 4: So they want you to live in a property and 756 00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:40,640 Speaker 4: for the first five years you have a twenty five 757 00:31:40,720 --> 00:31:43,240 Speaker 4: k lian on it. Every year drops off five thousand dollars. 758 00:31:43,280 --> 00:31:45,600 Speaker 4: So after the fifth year you probably like clean and 759 00:31:45,760 --> 00:31:47,440 Speaker 4: free to go do whatever you need to do, whether 760 00:31:47,480 --> 00:31:50,000 Speaker 4: it be refinanced or whatever the case may be. And 761 00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:52,080 Speaker 4: at this point, my first one, I've been in it 762 00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:54,080 Speaker 4: for eight years. The second one it's been five years. 763 00:31:54,080 --> 00:31:55,480 Speaker 4: So now I'm kind of like free and clear to 764 00:31:55,520 --> 00:31:57,400 Speaker 4: knackoling and I can kind of go move around how 765 00:31:57,440 --> 00:32:01,440 Speaker 4: I want to. But it's just like I'm set up 766 00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:03,560 Speaker 4: to the point where now I can pull equity out 767 00:32:03,600 --> 00:32:05,840 Speaker 4: of my properties. NAKA set me up to the point 768 00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:10,000 Speaker 4: in the beginning on my first deal, we didn't even 769 00:32:10,040 --> 00:32:12,320 Speaker 4: talk about this yet, but my first deal was immaculate. 770 00:32:13,280 --> 00:32:16,200 Speaker 4: I got a four unit property I moved in, so 771 00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:19,040 Speaker 4: I lived for free. All three units you know what 772 00:32:19,040 --> 00:32:23,320 Speaker 4: I mean, were paying rent already. I didn't put any 773 00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:25,640 Speaker 4: money down. I walked away from the closing table with 774 00:32:25,720 --> 00:32:28,800 Speaker 4: a five thousand dollars check. That same day I got 775 00:32:28,840 --> 00:32:31,760 Speaker 4: paid from my job. In addition to I kept all 776 00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:33,600 Speaker 4: of my money because I was going through the process 777 00:32:33,640 --> 00:32:35,360 Speaker 4: and they required me to keep saving, so that ten 778 00:32:35,400 --> 00:32:38,480 Speaker 4: thousand turned into fifteen thousand. So I went from making 779 00:32:38,520 --> 00:32:41,600 Speaker 4: about twenty six thousand dollars a year at my job 780 00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:44,200 Speaker 4: to having twenty six thousand dollars in cash in my 781 00:32:44,240 --> 00:32:47,400 Speaker 4: account after my first deal, which allowed me to go 782 00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:49,680 Speaker 4: start investing in the stock market, you know what I mean, 783 00:32:49,880 --> 00:32:53,720 Speaker 4: doing more deals, traveling network and building business, meeting guys 784 00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:54,240 Speaker 4: like y'all. 785 00:32:54,640 --> 00:32:56,480 Speaker 3: And that just came from that first deal. 786 00:32:56,480 --> 00:32:58,120 Speaker 4: And this is why I try to encourage people to 787 00:32:58,120 --> 00:33:01,120 Speaker 4: go through NACA, because they set you up so beautifully. 788 00:33:01,240 --> 00:33:03,440 Speaker 4: After the deal, it's like, damn, I still got all 789 00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:05,440 Speaker 4: this money left the average person they out of what 790 00:33:05,600 --> 00:33:08,440 Speaker 4: ten fifteen, twenty thousand dollars on the deal with faha, 791 00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:11,400 Speaker 4: you know what I'm saying, Like, it's not that with NAKA. Yeah, 792 00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:13,160 Speaker 4: I had to spend Actually I didn't spend nothing, but 793 00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:14,560 Speaker 4: you may have to spend a little money, like I said, 794 00:33:14,560 --> 00:33:17,160 Speaker 4: your taxes, insurance and little stuff like that. But man, 795 00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:19,160 Speaker 4: it's nowhere near the same as what a convention to 796 00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:19,600 Speaker 4: a FHA. 797 00:33:19,720 --> 00:33:22,400 Speaker 2: Long, so let me ask you this. Okay, a few things. 798 00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:24,360 Speaker 2: You was making twenty six thousand dollars a year when 799 00:33:24,360 --> 00:33:27,720 Speaker 2: you first got the house after taxis yep, okay, so 800 00:33:28,360 --> 00:33:31,200 Speaker 2: knaka all right.

A lot 1053 00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:22,000 Speaker 2: of times people will be like, all right, well I'm 1054 00:44:22,080 --> 00:44:32,040 Speaker 2: not buying a home until we get married. Crazy, which so, 1055 00:44:32,520 --> 00:44:36,800 Speaker 2: but there's actually benefits in place for buying a home 1056 00:44:37,560 --> 00:44:40,799 Speaker 2: not being married, absolutely, because you can buy you each 1057 00:44:40,880 --> 00:44:44,600 Speaker 2: can own a home individually, and then you can always 1058 00:44:44,600 --> 00:44:48,040 Speaker 2: buy a home together when you're married. So the dividing 1059 00:44:48,080 --> 00:44:50,839 Speaker 2: conquer strategy is something that people have talked about. So 1060 00:44:51,920 --> 00:44:57,080 Speaker 2: explain this because another thing that people can say is like, 1061 00:44:57,200 --> 00:44:58,960 Speaker 2: well I don't want to buy a home with somebody 1062 00:44:59,000 --> 00:45:01,040 Speaker 2: then we break up, but you actually went through a. 1063 00:45:00,960 --> 00:45:02,880 Speaker 3: Breakoup, yeah, so I've been through it. 1064 00:45:03,160 --> 00:45:06,120 Speaker 2: Explain Explain this that the second the second play. 1065 00:45:06,000 --> 00:45:08,359 Speaker 4: Okay, so the second play again, we took her back 1066 00:45:08,520 --> 00:45:10,520 Speaker 4: or whatever the case. Your girlfriend at the top it's 1067 00:45:10,520 --> 00:45:11,920 Speaker 4: my girl at the time, we took her back, and 1068 00:45:11,920 --> 00:45:14,480 Speaker 4: by me knowing the program, I'm like, yo, I can 1069 00:45:14,520 --> 00:45:17,400 Speaker 4: go big. So I'm looking at Chicago's biggest and best neighborhoods. 1070 00:45:17,440 --> 00:45:18,920 Speaker 4: I know the maximum on four unions. I know I 1071 00:45:18,960 --> 00:45:20,759 Speaker 4: can go up to nine hundred and fifty thousand dollars 1072 00:45:20,800 --> 00:45:22,120 Speaker 4: all this, So I'm like, oh shit, We're going to 1073 00:45:22,160 --> 00:45:25,000 Speaker 4: the North Side, Lincoln Park, Bucktown, Worker Park. These are 1074 00:45:25,080 --> 00:45:26,680 Speaker 4: areas that you know what I mean, young, You know 1075 00:45:26,719 --> 00:45:29,319 Speaker 4: what I mean. People who are making one two hundred thousand, Now, 1076 00:45:29,360 --> 00:45:31,080 Speaker 4: these are the areas they moving in. They're not married, 1077 00:45:31,160 --> 00:45:34,279 Speaker 4: but everything within walking distance, buses, trains, like you know 1078 00:45:34,360 --> 00:45:37,280 Speaker 4: what I mean. It's a popping, gentrifying area in Chicago. 1079 00:45:37,600 --> 00:45:39,799 Speaker 4: And I'm like, that's what we're going. So we go 1080 00:45:39,920 --> 00:45:43,400 Speaker 4: up there and this process takes a year because we 1081 00:45:43,600 --> 00:45:45,560 Speaker 4: just could not get deals like you know what I mean, 1082 00:45:45,719 --> 00:45:48,000 Speaker 4: Like it just wasn't working out for us. But again, 1083 00:45:48,040 --> 00:45:49,560 Speaker 4: at the end of y'all will understand why I'm not 1084 00:45:49,680 --> 00:45:53,000 Speaker 4: working out, because God's timing is the best timing. We 1085 00:45:53,040 --> 00:45:55,480 Speaker 4: went through probably four or five different deals where we 1086 00:45:55,640 --> 00:45:58,840 Speaker 4: just got turned down. No, almost lost ten thousand dollars 1087 00:45:58,840 --> 00:46:02,000 Speaker 4: in earnest money, just like went through the ringer with 1088 00:46:02,080 --> 00:46:05,759 Speaker 4: this second one. But then we finally went to see 1089 00:46:05,760 --> 00:46:10,560 Speaker 4: a property, and this property was amazing because it's almost 1090 00:46:10,560 --> 00:46:12,560 Speaker 4: like a two for one. Y'all call them eighty us 1091 00:46:12,600 --> 00:46:15,200 Speaker 4: out here. We call them coach houses in Chicago. But 1092 00:46:15,280 --> 00:46:17,480 Speaker 4: this particular property, it had a three unit building in 1093 00:46:17,480 --> 00:46:19,560 Speaker 4: the front of the lot and in the back of 1094 00:46:19,600 --> 00:46:21,080 Speaker 4: the lot there's a coach house. 1095 00:46:21,320 --> 00:46:22,759 Speaker 3: And this ain't no regular coach house. 1096 00:46:23,320 --> 00:46:26,560 Speaker 4: This house has twelve foot call for ceilings, floating stairs, 1097 00:46:27,719 --> 00:46:31,280 Speaker 4: just cherrywool oak floors. The guy who built the property 1098 00:46:31,360 --> 00:46:33,640 Speaker 4: was a developer and he stayed there with his family 1099 00:46:33,680 --> 00:46:36,440 Speaker 4: while collecting rent from the building in front. So essentially 1100 00:46:36,440 --> 00:46:38,399 Speaker 4: this is a two for one. And like I said, 1101 00:46:38,400 --> 00:46:40,920 Speaker 4: it's not a small property.

Like it's for need throw to buy. 1149 00:48:20,400 --> 00:48:21,839 Speaker 2: An interest rate, you just you put a lump sum 1150 00:48:21,840 --> 00:48:23,879 Speaker 2: of money up front here. 1151 00:48:24,520 --> 00:48:27,479 Speaker 4: So essentially I gave them was about seventy five eighty 1152 00:48:27,520 --> 00:48:30,120 Speaker 4: thousand dollars to save four hundred thousand dollars an interest 1153 00:48:30,160 --> 00:48:32,320 Speaker 4: on the back end. So it's like I gave y'all 1154 00:48:32,400 --> 00:48:35,200 Speaker 4: eighty bands to save four hundred just extra money that 1155 00:48:35,239 --> 00:48:37,440 Speaker 4: I would have been paying. In addition to that, it 1156 00:48:37,560 --> 00:48:40,279 Speaker 4: gave me twelve hundred dollars extra you know what I mean, 1157 00:48:40,320 --> 00:48:43,120 Speaker 4: savings on the mortgage. So that made it way more 1158 00:48:43,160 --> 00:48:44,960 Speaker 4: than affordable because, like I said, we now have a 1159 00:48:44,960 --> 00:48:46,960 Speaker 4: twenty seven hundred dollars mortgage with. 1160 00:48:47,040 --> 00:48:49,040 Speaker 3: Rents of five thousand dollars. 1161 00:48:49,160 --> 00:48:51,080 Speaker 4: Now my network then jumped up to one and a 1162 00:48:51,120 --> 00:48:54,640 Speaker 4: half million dollars in real estate through the knack of program. 1163 00:48:54,719 --> 00:48:56,239 Speaker 3: It's built relationships. 1164 00:48:57,040 --> 00:49:00,000 Speaker 4: I have a brand, I have a book, I travel, 1165 00:49:00,160 --> 00:49:02,840 Speaker 4: I do public speaking. I'm here talking to the biggest 1166 00:49:02,880 --> 00:49:07,160 Speaker 4: and the best. Also true all because of that first 1167 00:49:07,200 --> 00:49:09,640 Speaker 4: deal with the Knacker program. My relationships have grown to 1168 00:49:09,640 --> 00:49:11,520 Speaker 4: the point where I'm able to learn from other people 1169 00:49:11,600 --> 00:49:14,640 Speaker 4: in my industry because they're attracted to me because of 1170 00:49:14,680 --> 00:49:16,839 Speaker 4: how I did my deals. Like I have investors who 1171 00:49:16,840 --> 00:49:19,840 Speaker 4: are worth fifteen twenty thirty million. I go to Bigger 1172 00:49:19,840 --> 00:49:22,400 Speaker 4: Pockets conference and things like that. They're like a zero 1173 00:49:22,440 --> 00:49:24,839 Speaker 4: point eight percent interest rate. These are the biggest real 1174 00:49:24,920 --> 00:49:27,400 Speaker 4: estate investors in the world. We're talking about here that 1175 00:49:27,520 --> 00:49:29,120 Speaker 4: you know what I'm saying, And they like, how did 1176 00:49:29,160 --> 00:49:30,759 Speaker 4: you get a zero point eight how did you get 1177 00:49:30,800 --> 00:49:33,520 Speaker 4: a twenty a half percent? Like no money down. I've 1178 00:49:33,560 --> 00:49:36,719 Speaker 4: never heard of this program, And you would think people. 1179 00:49:36,520 --> 00:49:40,080 Speaker 2: Know about this, and they don't Knacker for anybody or 1180 00:49:40,120 --> 00:49:41,960 Speaker 2: you have to anybody lower income. 1181 00:49:42,320 --> 00:49:46,239 Speaker 4: So it's it's it's designed for lower income people, but 1182 00:49:46,320 --> 00:49:48,239 Speaker 4: you can do Knacker as a high income earner too. 1183 00:49:48,280 --> 00:49:50,680 Speaker 4: They'll just consider you what's called a non priority member, 1184 00:49:50,680 --> 00:49:52,319 Speaker 4: to whereas your interest rate will be a little bit 1185 00:49:52,360 --> 00:49:54,759 Speaker 4: higher than the priority members, but it's still going to 1186 00:49:54,840 --> 00:49:58,440 Speaker 4: be below the national average. And you can't buy in 1187 00:49:58,480 --> 00:50:02,319 Speaker 4: a neighborhood that the median income is higher than your 1188 00:50:02,360 --> 00:50:02,960 Speaker 4: media income. 1189 00:50:03,000 --> 00:50:04,839 Speaker 3: It has to be equal to or less than your 1190 00:50:04,880 --> 00:50:06,120 Speaker 3: media luxury. 1191 00:50:06,320 --> 00:50:09,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, So for example, if you make two hundred and 1192 00:50:09,840 --> 00:50:11,960 Speaker 4: fifty thousand dollars, you will probably have to buy a 1193 00:50:12,000 --> 00:50:15,600 Speaker 4: neighborhood where the median income is one hundred thousand, one 1194 00:50:15,640 --> 00:50:17,920 Speaker 4: hundred and fifty meters. I was making twenty six I 1195 00:50:17,960 --> 00:50:20,200 Speaker 4: can go buying a million dollar neighborhood. Because their goal 1196 00:50:20,280 --> 00:50:22,799 Speaker 4: is to balance out neighborhoods. NAKA doesn't want good or 1197 00:50:22,800 --> 00:50:25,520 Speaker 4: bad neighborhoods. They want it to be all neighborhoods are equal. 1198 00:50:25,719 --> 00:50:28,439 Speaker 4: The median income across all these neighborhoods are the same, 1199 00:50:28,480 --> 00:50:30,399 Speaker 4: and that's how you create balance by putting people who 1200 00:50:30,400 --> 00:50:32,799 Speaker 4: make thirty thousand in this neighborhood and people who make 1201 00:50:32,840 --> 00:50:35,000 Speaker 4: two hundred thousand in this neighborhood, and it just kind 1202 00:50:35,000 --> 00:50:37,359 Speaker 4: of like levels everything out so that way you don't 1203 00:50:37,400 --> 00:50:39,239 Speaker 4: have red lining and things like that. 1204 00:50:39,440 --> 00:50:42,239 Speaker 1: Can the high income earner. Can they buy down the 1205 00:50:42,280 --> 00:50:44,239 Speaker 1: industry as well? How low can we go? 1206 00:50:44,840 --> 00:50:47,000 Speaker 2: I think about one percent at this point one percent. 1207 00:50:48,160 --> 00:50:51,480 Speaker 2: What's some of the mistakes that people make with KNAK. 1208 00:50:51,680 --> 00:50:53,960 Speaker 2: I think the biggest mistake is probably just trying to 1209 00:50:53,960 --> 00:50:56,400 Speaker 2: get a faint single family as opposed to multi family. 1210 00:50:56,440 --> 00:50:59,120 Speaker 3: That's one. That's one and then two. 1211 00:50:59,440 --> 00:51:02,160 Speaker 4: Feeling like it's gonna be easy because you hear me 1212 00:51:02,200 --> 00:51:04,960 Speaker 4: talk about you no down payment, no closing costs, like yeah, 1213 00:51:05,000 --> 00:51:06,799 Speaker 4: it's your lick, but it's just like it's still going 1214 00:51:06,880 --> 00:51:08,960 Speaker 4: to be a process, like yeah, this is gonna be 1215 00:51:09,000 --> 00:51:10,600 Speaker 4: your move, this is your blessing right here. When you 1216 00:51:10,600 --> 00:51:14,080 Speaker 4: hear me talk that, get excited, but know that it's 1217 00:51:14,160 --> 00:51:16,279 Speaker 4: not going to be easy just because you heard all 1218 00:51:16,360 --> 00:51:18,960 Speaker 4: these benefits in the thirty second clip. Make sure you 1219 00:51:19,000 --> 00:51:20,960 Speaker 4: go do your own due diligence. Make sure you go 1220 00:51:21,000 --> 00:51:22,920 Speaker 4: watch the full interview. When I tell you about how 1221 00:51:22,960 --> 00:51:25,319 Speaker 4: I almost lost ten thousand dollars.

As long as you can pay rent, you 1696 01:11:37,360 --> 01:11:39,240 Speaker 4: can pay your mortgage. Now, it may not be in 1697 01:11:39,240 --> 01:11:41,960 Speaker 4: the best neighborhood of ever, but it's ownership. It starts 1698 01:11:42,000 --> 01:11:43,800 Speaker 4: there and then you can take that little piece of 1699 01:11:43,840 --> 01:11:45,800 Speaker 4: property or whatever the case may be, in scale up 1700 01:11:45,800 --> 01:11:48,000 Speaker 4: from there. But if we don't know about ownership, we 1701 01:11:48,000 --> 01:11:50,280 Speaker 4: don't have any representation. We don't have anybody teaching us 1702 01:11:50,280 --> 01:11:52,280 Speaker 4: these things. We don't have anybody talking about these things. 1703 01:11:52,560 --> 01:11:53,519 Speaker 4: It's just kind of like. 1704 01:11:53,520 --> 01:11:56,280 Speaker 2: You said something I was extremely insightful. Just now, if 1705 01:11:56,280 --> 01:11:59,400 Speaker 2: you can pay rent, you can pay a mortgage. That's 1706 01:11:59,479 --> 01:12:01,760 Speaker 2: true because most of the time the rent is higher. 1707 01:12:02,360 --> 01:12:02,760 Speaker 1: Oh yeah. 1708 01:12:02,800 --> 01:12:05,000 Speaker 2: The problem that stops people from buying a home is 1709 01:12:05,000 --> 01:12:07,720 Speaker 2: a down payment. So there's dollars, you know that, But 1710 01:12:07,760 --> 01:12:09,960 Speaker 2: it's like the down payment. So it's like, if you're 1711 01:12:10,040 --> 01:12:13,080 Speaker 2: living in the Bronx, you might be paying nineteen hundred 1712 01:12:13,120 --> 01:12:16,200 Speaker 2: dollars a month for a one bedroom a and not 1713 01:12:16,280 --> 01:12:19,120 Speaker 2: a great neighborhood.
