PP$5.83/min per minute(47)Real Estate InvestingPaula Pant • New York, NYCreated 10 years ago in Industries / Real EstateApprox. $1 million in real estate investments before age 30. I specialize in buy-and-hold, cash-flow residential real estate investments that create passive income. I'm an investor who owns seven rental property units, as well as a former licensed real estate agent. I've built a team that manages my investments day-to-day, which allows me to enjoy the passive income and financial independence that result from these strategic investments. If you hop on a phone call with me, we can analyze deals together. We can decide whether you should buy, hold or sell a specific property. We can discuss ways to find funding, build and automate your real estate business, select property managers, and understand the role that real estate investments will play within the larger context of your life and goals. Learn from both my successes and mistakes: a 30-minute call can potentially spare you from several thousand dollars in missteps.Paula Pant New York, NY(47)

PP$5.83/min per minute(47)Managing MoneyPaula Pant • New York, NYCreated 10 years ago in Business / Financial ConsultingIf you listen to the Q&A episodes on the Afford Anything podcast, you've heard me share advice on everything from asset allocation to retirement planning. Many financial planning questions are essentially a variant of: "Here are my options. How do I choose between these?" Maybe you're trying to decide to max out a 401k or use those funds to start a side hustle or small business. Maybe you're trying to decide whether to pull money from your HSA, empty the principle from a Roth IRA, or harvest gains in a taxable brokerage account. Maybe you're deciding how much to contribute to your child's 529 plan, as compared to the amount you'll save in an emergency fund. Maybe you know how you're investing short-term funds (that you'll use in less than 2 years) and long-term funds (that you'll use in 10+ years), but you have questions about how to invest that murky middle. Whatever your money management questions, I can coach you through it. PLEASE NOTE I am not a licensed certified financial planner, nor do I hold any other professional financial planning designation. I am a financial journalist and educator, not an advisor. I provide educational material only. Nothing that I say constitutes professional advice. Please listen to the Q&A episodes on my podcast, which will give you a good sense of the type of educational content that I provide.Paula Pant New York, NY(47)

Source: Clarity Jared Johnson Sep 5, 2018Paula took in tons of details about my life and then put them through that calculator brain of hers.

Source: Clarity Joelle Hochman Jun 20, 2018I'm a licensed real estate agent and multifamily unit rental property investor in Georgia, as well as an internet entrepreneur. You're correct; you must hold a real estate license to collect a referral fee. However, this isn't the only way to monetize your website. You could select from a wide variety of monetization methods, such as CPM or CPC advertising, charge a flat fee per listing, or use the site as a lead generator for webinars, seminars or premium material. In short, there are many ways to create revenue streams from your site that go beyond simply collecting a referral fee. (Bear in mind also that referral fees on rentals work differently than referral fees on buy/sell arrangements). If you'd like to discuss these ideas in greater detail, I'd be happy to speak with you by phone. Thanks!
Many people will answer this question by describing how much they disliked their job, and wanted to be their own boss. I have a different take: I enjoyed my job, but I wanted to notch up to the next level. I wanted freedom to set my own schedule, get rid of the gatekeepers and have no upper limit to my income. I also started building this business during the evenings and weekends, testing the idea, before I left my position. That gave me both the funds and the proof-of-concept that I needed.
