How SYSTEMS Save Your Self Time, Energy & Money in Real Estate Investing

By Eric Willner, Investor, Coach, and Host of The Real Estate Show, America’s longest running daily radio show about real estate.

Welcome to The Real Estate Show! South Florida’s #1 Real Estate Radio Show and America’s longest-running daily radio show about real estate. I’m your host, Eric Willner, known as the Voice of Real Estate, and the founder of this incredible platform. I’m also the creator of The Automatic Landlord System for owning cash-flowing real estate “profitably and hassle-free.” If you’ve tuned in before, you know that every episode is like a virtual real estate seminar, packed with insights, strategies, and practical advice.

Today’s theme is "SYSTEMS: Save Your Self Time Energy & Money." It’s all about how systems can simplify your real estate journey and set you up for long-term success.

Did You Know?

Let’s kick off with some thought-provoking questions:

1.      ?  Did you know that businesses with automated systems are 67% more efficient than those relying on manual processes, and the same principle applies to real estate investing?

2.      ?  Did you know that nearly 70% of real estate investors fail to maximize profits because they don’t have a systematic way to track expenses and income?

3.      ?  Did you know that implementing property management systems can reduce vacancy rates by up to 40% by streamlining tenant communication and marketing?

4.      Did you know that a lack of financial systems is one of the top reasons people fail to build generational wealth through real estate?

These are just a few of the alarming statistics about the current market. It is important to be aware of the challenges you may face so that you can plan accordingly. These questions highlight the critical role homeownership plays in financial independence and the vulnerabilities of not having a clear, systematic approach to wealth-building.

Why Real Estate?

Remember, everyone is in real estate. Either you are IN real estate because you own it—having searched, negotiated, and closed on it—or you are ON real estate, paying rent directly or indirectly to those who own it. The difference is whether you are building wealth or contributing to someone else’s wealth.

So, why is real estate the ideal investment? Because it offers the potential for:

• Cash flow through rental income.
• Appreciation as property values rise over time.
• Tax advantages like depreciation and deductions.
• Leverage, allowing you to invest more than you could with cash alone.
• Legacy building, creating wealth that can be passed down to future generations.

9 Actionable Steps for SYSTEMS

Yesterday, we explored nine reasons why SYSTEMS Save Your Self Time Energy & Money. Today, let’s break those reasons into actionable steps:

1. Automate Financial Tracking
   Use apps or tools to track income, expenses, and investment returns. Automating this process saves time and ensures accuracy.
2. Streamline Property Management
   Invest in property management software or hire professionals to handle tenant relations, maintenance, and rent collection.
3. Create a Budget Plan
   Develop a monthly budget to allocate resources for mortgage payments, repairs, and savings.
4. Leverage Tax Advantages
   Work with a tax professional to maximize deductions like depreciation and mortgage interest.
5. Establish a Debt Reduction Strategy
   Focus on paying down high-interest debt first to free up cash for investments.
6. Build a Real Estate Team
   Surround yourself with experts—agents, attorneys, contractors, and property managers. Their expertise will save you time and reduce costly mistakes.
7. Set Realistic Investment Goals
   Define short-term and long-term goals. Are you looking for cash flow, appreciation, or both?
8. Diversify Your Portfolio
   Spread your investments across different types of properties or locations to minimize risk.
