And you’ve raised about how much private money Crystal has in your career?
Crystal Baker:
About three, three quarter million.
Jay Conner:
And how long did we work together before you retired from that six-figure income as an occupational therapist and went full-time real estate?
Crystal Baker:
Yeah, so it was right between nine months and a year.

On raising private money, we’ll speak with new and seasoned investors to dissect their deals and extract the best tips and strategies to help you get the money because the money comes first. Now, here’s your host, Jay Conner.
[00:00:55] Crystal Baker:
Hello everybody. I’m Crystal Baker. I started investing in real estate back in 1996. Very traditionally, I would buy a house, bank through the bank, and get a loan. I lived in them wood rehab and sell ’em. I got out of the market. Back in 2008, 2009 timeframe, my last house sold in a bidding war.
[00:01:11] Crystal Baker:
I was fortunate and then found myself a single mother unexpectedly when my daughter was a baby and kind of looked at what had served me in the past. So I was an occupational therapist in leadership. So I did very well financially, but I did not feel very comfortable in terms of the number of hours and the lack of ability to be involved and raise my kids.
[00:01:33] Crystal Baker:
So I got back to real estate as a vehicle to make a change in my life and I was fortunate in that I met Jay Conner. I had other coaches and mentors before. Lots and lots of training spent a ton of money, did not do much, and then I attended the live event. Decided that I needed to sign up and be part of the platinum program did exactly what Jay said to do, and was able to create a business that allowed me to step away from a career that I’d had for 26 years and raise my kids travel.
[00:02:06] Crystal Baker:
Do what I wanna do. I now home-homeschool them so that we can do that however and wherever we want. And shortly thereafter, Jay asked if I would help coach his students. So I am on all accountability calls. I’m there for the hotline, I’m there for Platinum Q and A sessions. I help facilitate with the Mastermind students.
[00:02:23] Crystal Baker:
I provide Hour Of Power. And just general support all the way around in addition to that. And I’m just very blessed to have found something that I’m super passionate about. You’ll see me at the live event when you are there, and we’ll get to spend some time together I get to be a great part of this family and just grow my passion and give back, and that’s what matters in this life.
[00:02:44] Jay Conner:
And you’ve raised about how much private money Crystal has in your career?
[00:02:48] Crystal Baker:
About three, three-quarters million.
[00:02:50] Jay Conner:
And how long did we work together before you retired from that six-figure income as an occupational therapist who went full-time in real estate?
[00:02:59] Crystal Baker:
Yeah, so it was right between nine months and a year.
[00:03:02] Jay Conner:
Awesome. Crystal, you’re very important to our team of support and coaching all the Platinums, and Masterminds and you are very special to me and Carol Joy and the whole team. And can’t wait to see you in less than three weeks. Mastermind meeting three weeks from this past Monday and yesterday.
[00:03:22] Jay Conner:
Wait until you mastermind members. Hear what’s going on Monday night, the first night of Mastermind. Yeah. I can’t tell you now. It’s like I can tell you this. It is going to be the most amazing mastermind Monday evening we have ever had.
[00:03:43] Phyllis Way:
Okay. Hi everyone. I gave and sent out some of the CDs introduction, cd and my neighbor guy lives right behind me.
[00:03:50] Phyllis Way:
He didn’t seem like he was too interested. He had his concept of what he thought we were doing, and then he went home and he listened. He finally listened to the cd, came back a few minutes ago, and told Tom as well, with you and Tom, I can really, I can trust you all. I’m going to partner with y’all and be, become, be a private lender.
[00:04:07] Phyllis Way:
He didn’t say it in those words, but he was going to do business with us. I think that’s what Thomas said.
[00:04:12] Jay Conner:
That’s amazing. Phyllis, everybody. Phyllis, the clap. Is this your first private lender, Phyllis?
[00:04:20] Phyllis Way:
Yes. I don’t even know how to answer that one, Jay. I have people saying, oh wow, I wanna do it, but they don’t listen to the tape, but he’s the one that listened to the tape, came back, and did respond with a confirmation. Yes.
[00:04:30] Jay Conner:
That is fantastic. So how does that make you feel, Phyllis?
[00:04:34] Phyllis Way:
Scary. Yeah. Scary.
[00:04:38] Phyllis Way:
So what? Happy was scary at the same time. Happy was scary.
[00:04:41] Jay Conner:
Why? Why does that make you feel scared?
[00:04:43] Phyllis Way:
Because there’s still a lot of moving. That I don’t have in place, that I’m trying to get in place and that’s the part. But as far as I’m happy that I finally, did because, one of my biggest fears was maybe nobody would trust us, to do it, but, I’m happy about it.
[00:04:59] Jay Conner:
And you bring up a good point, and that’s why. You got Crystal Chaffey, myself, and the entire team to continue to hold your hand and walk through the process of funding that first deal with that private money. Yes.
[00:05:15] Phyllis Way:
Thank God.
[00:05:17] Jay Conner:
So that is awesome.
[00:05:18] Jay Conner:
Congratulations Phyllis.
[00:05:20] Phyllis Way:
Thank you.
[00:05:21] Chaffee Thanh-Nguyen:
I just wanna point out that with Phyllis there are the tools. We say that all the time and people forget to use it because they want to go and just talk to people or don’t know what to say. But if you just use the tools and pass out those audios, whether it’s a CD or a text or anything.
[00:05:38] Chaffee Thanh-Nguyen:
It works. And you know that Jay and Crystal know that. And we know that because you got students across the entire country that just pass out your audio and follow through the system. So, I do wanna reiterate that if you have Jay’s where to get the money now, the system uses it because we know it works.
[00:05:54] Chaffee Thanh-Nguyen:
And great job, Phyllis.
[00:05:55] Phyllis Way:
Thank you. Thank you.
[00:05:58] Jay Conner:
Thank you for emphasizing that chaff the tools. Use the tools and the tools work ab. Absolutely. As
