Jason Hull got his entrepreneurial start after working for a few tech companies and then going through a divorce. That drove his need to have more time with his kids.

Like many entrepreneurs, he gave up safety & certainty of a job to allow him greater freedom and he did it for his family, to be able to spend time with his two daughters. Once the entrepreneurial fire was lit, he couldn’t put it out.

Jason’s mission in life is to inspire others to love true principles. This means he loves uncovering & learning what works and sharing it with others.

You will learn about:

  • Pros and cons to self-managing or hiring a property manager
  • Tips on finding a property manager
  • How to scale up your portfolio
  • What to ask a property manager to ensure you have the best one working for you

More about Jason:

Jason has enjoyed being able to help grow businesses from wherever he called home & operating in the background. He has been the secret weapon of savvy property management entrepreneurs for a decade.

With a little pushing and prodding from both coaches & clients, Jason realized he would have to be the one to create the change that he wanted to see happen in the property management industry. He launched DoorGrow with the mission to “Transform Property Management Businesses & Their Owners” with the intention of transforming the entire industry through his followers & clients.

Jason is challenging the status quo and disrupting the accepted group-think existing in the industry that assumes that you need to do costly marketing (advertising) in order to grow. He also is shifting his clients’ focus from fighting over the small amount of existing market share to creating new market share instead.

One of the challenges as your real estate investing career develops is being able to make the switch from one form of investing to another successfully.

With nearly 30 years of experience in real estate, there is not a strategy that Mat Frederick has not executed; in fact, it is believed he may be the only Canadian to have done so!  

Everything from starting in residential income property then expanded to buy-fix-sell, lease option, commercial buildings and new development.  Mathew has led on renovating properties over 28 years which includes partnering with a developer over the past 6 years to build houses and low-rise condo buildings.

He now focuses on managing the assets of commercial portfolios including plazas and multi-family buildings plus coaching investors in business and real estate acquisition. He will also be sharing his thoughts on what he sees as the next big investing opportunity, storage units.

His application of these strategies is more than just simple engagement – it’s about performing each strategy 4 or 5 times and wrangling out most kinks… the kind of kinks you only discover during application.

In this episode you’ll learn:

– Tips on getting a great Joint Venture Partner

– Tips and strategies on Real Estate Development

– Great Real Estate philosophies

– Pro’s and Con’s on storage properties
