E023: Taking Baby Steps in Private Investing with Ryan & Mandy Rosenberg

Born and raised in New Jersey, Ryan & Mandy Rosenberg met in high school, got married in 2003 and now live in Hightstown, New Jersey, an old, one-square-mile town founded in 1721. As a teacher and administrator in public education, Mandy never paid that much attention to the person who would show up in the faculty room once a month to talk to them about their investments. She later realized that once you open your mind to what this path could yield, it opens the door to more opportunities, and sometimes, you just have to take baby steps. They made their first jump into private investing helping out a local brewery. Here’s what we talked about: What drew them to Accountable Equity Their first jump into private investing at a local brewery Looking at all investing options Understanding good debt and depreciation Syndication vs. doing your own deal Episode Highlights: More Than Just Investment What drew them to Accountable Equity was how the company is taking properties that need some love and breathing new life into them. It's a great investment opportunity, but there's something more than that. It's about community building, historic preservation, and the ROI and all those things wrapped together. If you have been very traditional in your investing, you just have to take baby steps. The learning curve can be steep in the beginning especially when you're starting out and not knowing much. Then you begin to know a little and then it accelerates from there. You start doing some research. Syndication vs. Doing Your Own Deal Syndications and doing things with people like Accountable Equity that care about your money and are accountable with your equity is awesome. It's potentially going to yield far better than Wall Street. Although nobody knows the crystal ball, it should because of the direct access to the actual deal. And if you have that passion and you're an active investor, you should and can build more wealth quickly that way. The syndications are growing nicely. But sometimes, if you run your own project yourself, you can grow it quicker. There are also more opportunities. When you own your own private house or short term rental, you have all the tools available to you such as a debt and of your own capital going in and maybe pulling it back out. You're in charge and you can liquidate it. Links:
