The Wealth Building Formula with Ken Van Liew

Episode Summary

Ken Van Liew, Founder & CEO of Global Real Estate Strategies. At 17 years old, he read Robert Allen's book "Nothing Down: How to Buy Real Estate With Little or No Money Down", back then he couldn't even afford to have a car but was still fortunate to have a summer job on a major construction site where he learned the skill that ended him to create a 6-year plan in college by eventually becoming a civil engineer. When the tower collapsed in New York his best friend died. By 2008 he lost a 375 million dollars project with Lehman Brothers. That's when he wanted to jump off the building but magic kept him in the spirit and kept him in the game. He's got nothing out but he was able to get on his knees, surrender then built it up again, and keep going. That's where the Modern Wealth Building Formula comes in. He wants other people to apply it since it works for any type of business. With the system and syndication approach, it helps him create an extraordinary life where he wants other people to have. Also, we have Cameron Roy as our co-host for today. He is an opportunity provider for those looking to build passive cash flow, financial freedom, and generational wealth through real estate investing. He started a landscaping company in the 7th grade until high school then he wrote a book immediately after college, and married the girl of his dreams.

Guest Bio:

Ken Van Liew started his professional career with a civil design engineering job, twins, and 2 master's degrees, underpinned with a six-figure debt and a burning desire to serve others.

Ten years later, he cut the ribbon on the development of a $17M dollar, 72,000 square feet, 113 bed assisted living facility.  He parlayed this success into a Staten Island waterfront development and began a mastery journey with Tony Robbins.  While attending Tony Robbin's event in Hawaii, his waterfront development was terminated due to the World Trade Center tragedies.

This moment gave Ken time to reflect on where he was, where he wanted to be and the impact he wanted to have.  Alongside the syndication and development of over a billion dollars of high-profile real estate investments, Ken created the Modern Wealth Building Formula as the fastest track to building wealth ... a project that has empowered 1000's developers over the last 20 years.

Simply put, Ken is a titan in the world of real estate responsible for over a billion dollars of construction across dozens of projects and has forever changed the New York skyline.  In addition, Ken regularly speaks on stages including NYU Real Estate Institute and the College of Engineering at Rutgers University, and is a best-selling author.  Ken is an unsung hero in the world of stage magic, has been married for over 30 years, and is the proud father of 3 talented and successful children.
