Why This Former Accountant Is in LOVE with Mobile Home Parks with Alina Trigub

While “multifamily” investing is still very hot, mobile home parks can be just as lucrative as an investment. Today we chat with a former accountant, Alina Trigub to discuss why she decided to diversify beyond Wall Street into real estate. We cover so much with Alina, including advantages of passively investing, best educational resources for learning syndications, the “in’s and out’s” of mobile home park investments, and a simple 4 step process to work through difficult emotions. Alina is the founder and the Managing Partner of SAMO Financial. It’s a boutique private equity firm specializing in helping a select group of people passively invest in the commercial real estate. She welcomes warm introductions of accredited investors that are looking (1) for help to preserve their wealth, (2) to find ways to save on taxes, and (3) make an additional passive stream of income. Her business motto has been articulated well by Warren Buffett's indicating that, "Someone is sitting in the shade today because someone planted a tree a long time ago". She is the founder of two Meetup groups named, “The Power of Passive Investing through Real Estate”, which gather in NY and NJ. In addition, Alina offers educational webinars in collaboration with various administrators of self-directed IRA companies. Topics revolve around aspects of getting started investing in syndications by using funds in solo 401k or self-directed retirement plans. Alina has helped her clients to acquire and invest in over 1200 apartment doors, over 10MM Fund focused on self-storage, and over 5MM Fund focused on mobile home parks and storage. On today’s episode, we discuss a ton with Alina, including: How to work through difficult emotions The difference between passive and active investors The power of syndications Why vetting the syndicator is just as important as vetting the deal How to properly vet a syndicator The “ins and outs” of mobile home park investing Biggest mistakes investors can make when evaluating mobile home park investments   Contact Information Via email - [email protected] Via website - samofinancial.com Via LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/alinatrigub/   Books/Resources: Best Ever Book on Syndication by Joe Fairlesss It’s a Whole New Business by Gene Trowbridge Whitney Sewell’s Podcast on Real Estate Syndication Miracle Morning by Hal Elrod You are a Badass by Jen Sincero  InvestHER Community Join us on our mission to support and empower as many women as we can to live a financially free and balanced life.
