1. Kris Krohn Encourages Investors to Build a Real Estate Power Team
Kris Krohn is the first to admit that building wealth through real estate investing is not easy, and
is virtually impossible to do alone. Kris Krohn learned early in his career that the best way to be
successful in real estate investing is by dividing and conquering. To Kris Krohn, a “power team”
is essential to building life-changing wealth through real estate. This Q&A explains the elements
of a power team and why there is no “I” in this team.
Q: A lot of investors seem to make money from real estate. Is it really that hard?
Kris Krohn: While we have all heard stories of real estate moguls going it alone, the truth is,
most have a team of experts behind them. There are so many moving parts when it comes to
real estate and it is always changing. For someone new to real estate, it is particularly difficult
to stay on top of all areas of real estate, including buying, selling, financing, rehabilitating,
maintenance, contracts, and more.
Q: What is the power team and why is it so important?
Kris Krohn: Successful real estate investing requires a team of experts to handle all of the major
Krohn:
pieces and includes a realtor, mortgage broker, title officer, certified public accountant,
attorney, banker and insurance broker. The power team lightens the workload of the investor
substantially. By enlisting a power team, the investor is able to leverage the team’s time,
expertise, ideas, knowledge and systems to build their own personal wealth without the
additional workload. The power team makes it possible to replicate the buy, lease and sell
process over and over again, thus leading to more significant wealth in the long-term.

Kris Krohn: Yes, the Strongbrook Group includes Strongbrook REIC, Strongbrook Realty,
Strongbrook Lending, Strongbrook Property MGMT, Strongbrook Financial Services, and
