Rob Rowsell is a successful multifamily real estate investor. He didn’t earn wealth by focusing on the wrong priorities. Here’s Rob’s Investor Report Card. If you’re not prioritizing your goals in the right order, you won’t live a fulfilled life. Prioritize your Walk with the Lord FIRST, then your Health, your Relationships, your Personal Development, and THEN your Wealth. Review this report card honestly every month. If you didn’t get straight A’s this month, no worries. This list will show you what you need to do to improve next month.

Investor Report Card Investor Report Card – It’s Not Just About Money

One of Rob’s mentors, Robert Kiyosaki, often mentions an investor report card strictly in the financial sense. However, this report card takes a more holistic approach, examining Rob’s six pillars, in order of importance:

  1. Walk With The Lord: None of our endeavors as believers will truly succeed without putting them where they belong: under God’s Lordship. We exist to serve Him, and He will bless our efforts if we trust in Him.
  2. Health: Our bodies are temples to God. If we don’t exercise, eat healthy food, and get enough rest, we won’t be around as long as we could to honor God.
  3. Relationships: Healthy relationships with ourselves and our families, friends, and neighbors come first. When we treat those that we see the most right, then treating business associates will come naturally.
  4. Personal Development: Regular study will help you become the best version of yourself. This includes reading the right books to increase your financial IQ.
  5. Wealth: When you put in the work on Investor Report Card subjects 1-4, #5 will come to you naturally. Financial freedom in Rob’s world means reaching deca-millionaire or even hecto-millionaire status. Healthcare advancements mean longer lives. Gone are the days of seven figures translating to a comfortable retirement.
  6. Contribution: Giving back means sharing your overall wealth with others. That means the Time, Talent, Treasure, and Testimony that your efforts have earned you.

A guest on Rob Rowsell’s ATL Inner Circle Community call asked why Rob made his choice in a “residential or commercial investment” quandary. In short, residential units were a proven commodity in this space. The bank would not loan Rob and his investors money to renovate and set up a commercial business on the property.

Residential or Commercial Investment - Real Estate InvestingResidential or Commercial Investment? You May Not Have A Choice!

Dave chimed in to ask about a property Rob detailed earlier. He asked why Rob chose to develop multifamily residential units, rather than the commercial business that previously operated there. What drove that decision? Turns out it was the bank.

Rob initially planned on renovating the space for a new commercial endeavor. However, the lending institution wouldn’t go for it. Despite plenty of research on what Rob and his team could charge for the business space, the previous owners never make the most of it. In fact, those investors had left the commercial space unfinished and inoperable, content with income from the second floor apartments. The previous history of underachievement scared the bank out of another commercial investment.

Rob and his investment team went back to the drawing board. They crunched the numbers on remodeling the downstairs commercial space into new multifamily dwellings. This time, the bank agreed to the loan, so the group could move forward. Despite being deep into a PSA, the new plan will actually generate more profits. Win-win!

What is your emergency fund savings number? How much should you store in your Wealth Security Bucket to *really* be prepared for financial hardship? Rob Rowsell, successful multifamily investor, has the answers. It all comes down to what number you and your family can agree on to fund your lifestyle in the event of a catastrophic emergency, such as job loss, illness, or natural disasters.

Emergency Fund Savings AccountEmergency Fund Savings Number – How Much Should I Save?

Hans responded to Rob’s request for questions by asking about the “Security Bucket” concept. What kind of account does Rob recommend, and perhaps more importantly, what is the magic emergency fund savings number?

Rob previously mentioned he has two years of income saved up in his security bucket.  What amount do most experts recommend, though? Simply put, Rob says it’s an amount that you and your spouse can agree upon, assuming you are married. Money is a point of contention in most marriages, so you will likely need to compromise. Although he is exaggerating, Rob says three months of income is fine by him, but his wife Claudia wants ten years! Obviously, their two year cushion compromise resulted from some serious haggling.

Many financial advisors recommend saving up six months of income as an emergency fund savings number. Your mileage may vary, depending on your own circumstances and risk factor. For instance, younger investors likely have a lot more runway left in life to take financial risks. Thus, they will have a lot more time to refill their security bucket when disaster strikes. Rob recommends the book “The Psychology of Money” for more in depth reading on saving for potential calamity.
