Are you a successful business owner? Or maybe a business owner who has been able to provide a living for your family but hasn’t yet found financial freedom through your business?
This week, Cory and Matt welcome Jon Switzer, an owner occupier financial specialist, who shows business owners how to unlock their revenues enabling them to become their own landlord and in some cases with as little as 0% down including closing costs. Most businesses in Canada are small businesses, 50 employees or less, and you would be surprised to hear how a lot of these businesses have the financial ability to buy their real estate vs leasing it. Jon highlights how banks view your business, the do’s and don’ts when you’re looking to purchase real estate for your business, and simple mistakes business owners make that could cost you an opportunity to become your own landlord.
This is a must-listen episode for all business owners or those inspiring to be business owners one day!
