Investing in Co-Housing and the Future of Affordable Housing with Matthew Ryan
Show notes
In this episode of The Real Estate Investing Club I interview Matthew Ryan, My passion in life is building companies that tackle socio-economic issues through entrepreneurship. I strongly believe in the ability of the private sector to solve society's most complex problems and that entrepreneurs are the foundation of it all.
I started my first company in 2010 after reading that a mere 3% reduction in energy demand would mitigate the need for a controversial coal plant in my home state. In 2013, while still building that company, I made my first investment in a post-WWII duplex in an up-and-coming neighborhood because I felt I could generate a better return than what I was getting in the stock market. This coupled my passion for remodeling older buildings with delivering quality, energy-efficient, green homes to the market. My experience with that project in addition to my relationship with a fellow community member would become the genesis for what is now re-viv; a private equity company focused on providing profitable investments for our investors while improving the communities we serve.
To date, I've built a real estate portfolio that's averaged a 25%+ annualized ROI, and I have enough passive income I could retire. My goal is to help other start-up founders, active real estate investors, and those who already know the benefit of passive real estate investing continue to build wealth so they can pursue their passions the same way I have..
