Growing up in a small town in Illinois, Matt began work at a local Machine shop, creating parts for agricultural companies like John Deere and Caterpillar. But after a few years, amounting debt and minimal pay raises forced him to look for another source of income. Spending the remaining money he had, he invested heavily in learning about real estate before successfully completing his first wholesale deal in 2006. Fast forward to the present, Matt has created a multi-million dollar real estate enterprise, completed thousands of real estate transactions, and holds a substantial portfolio of cash flowing properties. If you're just starting out, or already run a business and are looking to go to the next level, Matt has the knowledge to get the result you desire.\n\xa0\n[00:01 \u2013 09:40] Opening Segment\nMatt\u2019s 17 years in real estate\nMaking key hires, aka virtual assistants, to expand the business\nHow Matt financed his first property\n\xa0\n[09:41 \u2013 18:39] Working 5 Hours a Week \nEmploying virtual assistants in Matt\u2019s business after reading The 4-Hour Workweek\nBetter with Processes: The Aftermath of Hiring Vas\nHiring Vas from the Philippines\n\xa0\n[18:40 \u2013 26:27] What Makes a Virtual Assistant\nThe VA Hiring Process\nHow COVID impacted the virtual world\nPieces of Advice from Matt: Why You Should Hire a VA\n\xa0\n[26:28 \u2013 33:24] Closing Segment\nQuick break for our sponsors\nThe first step to growing your wealth is tracking your wealth, income spending and everything else about your finances, you can start tracking your wealth for free and get six free months of wealth advisor.\xa0 Learn more about Personal Capital at escapingwallstreet.com\n\nWhat is the best investment you've ever made other than your education?\nA high-paying flip\n\nMatt\u2019s worst investment\nA bar\n\nWhat is the most important lesson you\u2019ve learned in business and investing?\n\u201cDocument every single thing you do.\u201d\nCheck out sweetprocess.com\n\n\xa0\nConnect with Matt Larson through https://realestatematt.com, Facebook, and Instagram.\n\xa0\nInvest passively in multiple commercial real estate assets such as apartments, self storage, medical facilities, hotels and more through https://www.passivewealthstrategy.com/crowdstreet/\nParticipate directly in real estate investment loans on a fractional basis.
