It’s been a while, but here’s an important (and a bit longer!) episode about the legalities and illegalities of hard money financing in Tennessee.

Today you're going to learn about the lender-borrower relationship, the hierarchy of the real estate business, but also about how you can check for the regulations about hard money financing in your own state.

You’ll hear the details of my litigation against two lenders for the breach of contract and R.I.C.O. violations, and I’m also going to introduce you to my all-star legal team that is helping me fight this fight.

And I hope that the results of this legal endeavor will have long-term effects and benefits for all of you investors creators out there.

What is Covered:

- What would you do in this situation? (the scenario I laid out to my Scale group)

- How I discovered the legalities and illegalities of hard money financing in Tennessee

- The reason why some loans are illegal

- “The borrower is slave to the lender.” Emotional aspects of the borrower-lender relationship

- The hierarchy and power dynamics in the real estate business

- State of Tennessee’s position and the initial reactions of lenders

- Litigation, lenders’ defense and the concept of R.I.C.O.

- The impact of this legal action on title companies and real estate associations

- Introducing my team of legal experts and the next steps

This is a special Patriots edition of the Investor Creator Podcast. Unless you've been in a coma for the past three days, then you know that there was an assassination attempt at the former President Trump that came incredibly close to having dire consequences.

But since this is not a politics show but a real estate show, the question we are asking now as real estate investors is, how does this potentially impact the real estate market?

In this episode, Brad shares what he has seen so far in election cycles, and how significant political events impact the buyers' activity and buyers' sentiment. We're going to cover the situation in the real estate market around 2016 elections, and what we can possibly expect in the light of this extreme event and upcoming elections of 2024. Brad also shares advice for the real estate investors on how to track their listings to remain safe, and why we all have to be cognizant of market cycles today.

Because the first rule of making money is don't lose money. And stay tuned for our new show launching soon!

Yes, he has done around 4,500 real estate deals over the last 20 years, but on that journey he also experienced two failed marriages, $9 million lost in business missteps, kids with behavioral issues, and the use of substances as coping mechanisms.

Today, he spends only one hour a week in his real estate business that runs completely without him, and dedicates his time to guiding people on a journey to profound personal transformation.
