The Wealth Elevator
By Lane Kawaoka
Single family home flips - that's a job!
Join me in my journey as I build my own portfolio with large syndications in multi-family apartments, mobile home parks, self storage, assisted-living, and buy-hold turn-key rental real estate.
We build passive streams of cashflow with each rental so we can have the freedom to quit our jobs to do what we truly want.
It's not easy, but it's simple.

The Wealth Elevator: Floor One
The Wealth Elevator podcast's latest episode, hosted by Lane Kawaoka, delves into the transition from the basement floor to floor one, targeting small investors aiming for financial freedom with a net worth between $50,000 to $500,000 and a monthly cash flow of $0 to $5,000. The focus on cultivating a savvy money mindset and values is emphasized, drawing from Lane's personal journey as an engineer who saved aggressively.
The narrative shifts from traditional investing to the first floor's strategy, with Lane advocating for diversification into rental properties over conventional options like the 401k. The four key reasons to invest in rental properties—cash flow, appreciation, tax benefits, and leverage—are explored, emphasizing their potential to boost income and motivate additional savings.
Lane acknowledges the challenges, including dealing with tenants and property maintenance, but underscores the benefits of diversification within a portfolio. He encourages a gradual approach, highlighting the journey from saving a few thousand dollars monthly to significant increases in net worth over time.
The podcast discourages alternative investments like Airbnb short-term rentals and advises against vacation homes, favoring long-term rentals catering to the broader market, especially during economic downturns.
The episode elaborates on the tax benefits of real estate investments, with Lane advocating for a shift from traditional retirement plans to alternative approaches. Business expenses, such as equipment and meals, are discussed as deductible items, with a call for better understanding and collaboration with knowledgeable CPAs.
The conclusion emphasizes that the first floor is a training ground for learning the art of saving, budgeting, and investing in rental properties. Lane encourages the implementation of legal entities, asset protection, and tax strategies for long-term wealth building. He invites listeners to join upcoming episodes exploring strategies for ascending to higher floors, stressing the importance of sharing the podcast with like-minded friends for a supportive community.
The Wealth Elevator; Basement Floor
In this episode of The Wealth Elevator podcast, Lane explores the foundational "basement level" of The Wealth Elevator, emphasizing the challenges of information overload for higher net worth individuals. The discussion covers personal experiences, the traditional linear path of financial success, and the importance of discernment and financial tools. Lane addresses distinguishing between good and bad debt, the significance of budgeting, and the value of building a financial foundation. He encourages listeners in the basement to appreciate the process, emphasizing the eventual financial growth. The episode concludes with a preview of upcoming discussions on the wealth elevator's other floors.

Why focus on investing in real estate as opposed to “more popular” investments rather than crypto, forex or stocks?
In this week’s podcast, we have the second chapter 2 of the Simple Passive Cash Flow book where we talk about real estate as a source of cashflow.
Real estate can provide genuine cash flow for investors because it generates income from rental payments or profits from the sale of properties.
When you purchase a rental property, you can generate rental income from tenants who pay you rent regularly.
You can generate a positive cash flow as long as the rent covers the costs of maintaining the property, such as mortgage payments, property taxes, and repairs.
Moreover, real estate investments can appreciate over time, which means the property can increase in value and provide additional profit if you sell it. This combination of rental income and appreciation can make real estate a powerful investment vehicle for generating cash flow and building wealth.

Do you save and prepare for your medical expenses if the need arises?
Patients can save medical costs while still receiving necessary care by taking advantage of in-network primary care physicians, using high-deductible health plans, researching prescription drug prices, and opting for generic medications.
You can also save money on routine medical care by using telemedicine or virtual visits, choosing urgent care or walk-in clinics instead of emergency rooms, and participating in workplace wellness programs. It is essential to regularly check medical bills for errors and overcharges and consider alternative therapies and community health clinics as well.

Land conservation refers to protecting natural areas, biodiversity, and ecosystems for the long-term benefit of humans and the environment. Conservation easements are a tool used to preserve land for future generations.
The New Omnibus Bill impacts conservation easements by increasing tax incentives for landowners who choose to conserve their land through easements.
In addition, it encourages private landowners to participate in land conservation efforts and helps protect critical natural resources.

2023 Tax Action Plan For Passive Investors
Are you determined to pay lower taxes legally?
As a passive investor, you need to know how you can have LEGAL tax deductibles that will lower the tax you'll be paying. Focus on the 'big balls' like passive activity losses (PALs) that can reduce your adjusted gross income (AGI).
When a taxpayer has a loss from a passive activity, they can use that loss to offset income from other passive activities, as well as income from non-passive activities, up to the amount of their taxable income from all sources. This can lower the taxpayer's AGI and reduce their overall tax liability.
