My Cash Flow Academy's Investors Corner

I welcome Dafna Kaplan, the CEO of Cassette Systems, a trailblazer in modular home products for multifamily buildings. Dafna will be unveiling an exciting new product, making this a must-listen episode for anyone passionate about housing, affordable living, and scalability. After two years of anticipation, we are delighted to have Dafna joining us for this enriching conversation finally.

Revolutionizing Construction in Affordable Multifamily Housing the Cassette Systems Way

Dafna Kaplan, the CEO of Cassette Systems, joined the Women Making History series to share how her path from social work, consumer product sale, to PR for an architectural firm, to a commercial construction firm led her to her passion for multifamily affordable housing built with a manufactured product that she developed.

Imagine an apartment building that can be built green, efficiently, economically and quickly. while leaving very little footprint. Her experience in construction and her background in consumer product sales lead her to her ah-ha moment that the process is at fault not the product. She is set to revolutionize the construction industry by changing how things are done in one of the most inefficient big businesses in our economy. She also had a big reveal for a new product her firm Cassette Systems is launching in the fall and yes, she has some show and tell of projects now underway. We'd love to know what your favorite is, so please drop it in the comments.

Build Your Affordable #prefab #tinyhouse home in 4 Hours with Robotics!

Go green and catch the affordable housing wave! Build a factory built 1 bed 1 bath home in 8 hours!

Join me as I chat with Joe Basel CEO of Practical Revolution, a tiny home builder, and village developer.

A new movement is dawning out of the success and observed shortcomings of the Housing First approach. He is designing communities that lift people up toward a life of hope, purpose, and happiness.

Practical Revolution brings vulnerable individuals who are coming thru and out of serious trauma into the embrace of wraparound support services and healing housing. They also help facilitate intentional healthy community and relationships. All for a fraction of the cost of current permanent supportive housing, in a rapidly scalable platform.

Radical Affordability

These homes are radically affordable. We are budgeting for rents as low as $300/month all in non-subsidized for an SRO unit. The current developments are coming online for between $50,000 and $70,000 per door all in even after purchasing land and full infrastructure build-out.

With sponsored land, cooperative utility companies, and helpful planning and zoning authorities, they can do even better. At this cost, they are able to quickly scale to a meaningful number of homes in a short time frame. Hundreds or even thousands of units built in months, not decades.

How to Become RentAble to 4.5 Million Untapped STR Guests

Join me as I chat with the founder of becomingrentable.com, Lorraine Woodward, who will share how her company is turning the short-term rental market on its head.

Lorraine left a successful long-term career in the corporate and nonprofit world to create the solution she and families like hers needed.

You see Lorraine is living with MS and has 2 children with muscular dystrophy, MD. So it was a challenge, and let's be honest, a stress on her husband, for them to find the right place to stay when traveling.

She bought a second home and made it wheelchair friendly. Then when they weren't using it they put it out as a short-term rental. She had people drive from Texas to NC because there is such a need.

That was the spark.

She is going to be the Expedia Group/VRBO for special needs accommodation.

And she is growing like gang busters.

The growth of Becoming rentABLE in just 2 years has been staggering, during this time Lorraine’s teams' accomplishments include:    

Having over 1200 accessible short-term, rental properties on their listing map, which makes them have more accessible short-term, rental listings than Air BnB and VRBO combined.

Listings in all 50 states in over 685 cities across the United States.

In August, International Hospitality Media Limited out of the UK listed Lorraine Woodward and Becoming rentABLE in the top 20 influencers across travel, hospitality, and real estate.

The team has built the first and only fully accessible short-term rental property for individuals with mobility, vision, hearing, and/or Autism/IDD in the United States.

Becoming rentABLE is 1 of 12 startups selected for Expedia Group's new Open World Accelerator program. Each startup has created technology to improve accessibility for underserved travelers. 

Come hear her story AND how you can stand out as a vacation home provider for those who have been ignored until Lorraine came along that is. 

What do you need to stand out and how can her company help you serve this part of the vacationing public profitably?

 Multifamily ADUs top floor, bottom floor and garage ADUs

Join us as we chat with Cameron Crockett of UltraUnit a company that specializes in creating ADUs in multifamily dwellings, specifically in Long Beach CA.

He will take us through the process from visioning the ADU space layout and feel, to minimizing cost and disturbance to the existing structure and tenants and maximizing property value, to getting permits to completion. He will share how he also minimizes the time for permitting.

He has created ADUs on top floors of buildings, in parking lots, on the side of existing buildings, and his favorite: converting garages into living spaces.

He will give us guidance on what makes an ADU expensive and how to circumvent the top 5 killer mistakes investors make when creating an ADU.

Why did I choose him as a guest? Because he is helping us with our ADU after false starts with another architect who it turns out was not familiar enough with the process or the city.

Even if you are in a different city, his approach and dos and don'ts are universal, and worth the investment of time to learn.

Meet Rebecca Moller, founder and creator of SYmbiHom, the garage Additional Dwelling Unit kit!

Cities need to meet RHNA mandates. Institutions and corporations need to ensure that workforce housing is available to attract and retain young talent and to grow. Homeownership is unaffordable for the average earner.

An aging population needs to age in place with income to assist them.

In California, one in three homeowners and renters are cost-burdened, spending > 50% of their income on housing. 3.5 million market rate and affordable housing units are needed in California alone. New multi-family construction cannot meet demand. Workers cannot afford to live near work and half of our aging population needs an income subsidy. 

Increased land cost, land use laws, permitting, development processes, and rising construction costs have slowed the rate at which traditional new residential density can be built. In short, demand outweighs supply—most notably in metro areas where a lack of affordable housing has forced workers far away from their employers. 

The Solution: convert existing garages into living spaces. and have an easy-to-implement kit to do it. That's SYmbiHom! An efficient, green housing solution and fast track to creating workforce housing in the neighborhoods they serve.

Rebecca is passionate about creating housing and in scaling this solution from the 80 kits that have been sold in 2022 to 4,000 kits in 2026.
