GUEST BIOBruce Wuollet grew up in a family bakery business in Minnesota. Over the next 16 years he worked in all areas of the business from baking to cake decorating to sales to deliveries which gave him a unique perspective of business. Early on he was able to identify and learn the importance of building systems along with relationships in everyday operations.Dating back to 2001, He gained his knowledge in real estate working in tax liens foreclosures. As an opportunist, he then pursued vacant homes that were not in tax lien foreclosures. He was able to have three investment homes, a duplex and a triplex by the summer of 2002. In the same year, he partnered with Jack Martin, another son of a baker and together they formed Bakerson, LLC.Today, Bruce specializes in multifamily apartments, which he refers to as the business of Togetherment, as opposed to “apart.” He values the communities that he brings together over everything and takes full pride in what he and his partner have built both—ironically—as sons of bakers. Together they are making more than just dough—their portfolio shows just that, under Bakerson, LLC.THE REAL ESTATE FOUNDATION01:21 Guest Background08:00 What strategy Bruce Wuollet focused?12:21 How to deal with opportunities?15:45 Evaluating the highs and lows of the business20:30 Dealing uncertainties events that affects the economic - extended spring break30:48 Finding a potential property39:30 The gap between Class A and Class BKEEPING IT REAL43:13 Keeping the lighthouse lit - always make an offer and talk to investors about opportunities44:00 Onyx App - hunting app that tells who the owners are45:24 Agile CRM - deals specific for raising capitalANSWERS TO THE RAPID FIRE QUESTIONS IN THE SHOW:49:19 Favorite book - Relentless by Tim S.
