Many of us work full-time jobs, have kids, or juggle a lot of responsibilities, so we can’t dedicate days each week to finding rental properties to buy. Thankfully, you don’t have to. If you have even an hour or so to spare each week, you can use any of these five “lazy” methods to find your next investment property.    Henry is our go-to deal-finding expert and has bought over 100 houses using strategies just like these. These deal-finding tactics are so beginner-friendly that you can use many of them on your first real estate deal, with no prior experience. We’ll share how to find tenanted rental properties that can cash flow on day one, the secret behind getting agents to send you deals before the market sees them, how to make low offers en masse to get cheaper properties in any market, and how to get someone else to find the deals for you…for a fee.    Finally, if you want to organically, cheaply, and sustainably grow your rental property funnel so you’re always being shared on deals, we give you the step-by-step path to incentivize other investors in your area to shoot you properties for sale first.    Your next deal is closer than you think; here’s how to find it as a “lazy” investor.     In This Episode We Cover  How Henry scores rental properties for 40% off (routinely!) in his market   Exactly what to tell an agent so they send you “pocket listings” first  Getting on wholesalers’ lists so you’re constantly getting deals sent to your inbox  What to tell local investors in your area so they’ll send you deals or even referrals on contractors   A type of property that has tenants and management in place and is abundant for investors   And So Much More!

And if you ask today’s guest, less is usually more.    For over a decade, John Crutchfield was in full-on acquisition mode. Despite starting with very little money, he scaled to over 600 units across multiple states and tens of millions of dollars’ worth of real estate. He even quit his job to focus on his portfolio full-time!    But then the market changed. Interest rates spiked, debt became more expensive, and John’s expenses ballooned.

And if you ask today’s guest, less is usually more.    For over a decade, John Crutchfield was in full-on acquisition mode. Despite starting with very little money, he scaled to over 600 units across multiple states and tens of millions of dollars’ worth of real estate. He even quit his job to focus on his portfolio full-time!    But then the market changed. Interest rates spiked, debt became more expensive, and John’s expenses ballooned. He had overleveraged his real estate portfolio, and suddenly, owning more properties wasn’t really making him wealthier. So he did something he had spent years trying to avoid: he started selling.

Do you want to pay less in taxes and keep more of your hard-earned money from the IRS? Dave’s bringing you seven of the best tax strategies that could help you save thousands each year!    Today, Dave’s breaking down an example property and putting each of these tax strategies to the test. We’ll look at how much money they could save you and how they fit into your overall investing strategy. From depreciation deductions that reduce your taxable rental income (on paper) to 1031 exchanges that help defer capital gains tax, there are options for every investor.    When used properly, these real estate tax deductions are completely legal and relatively easy to implement. But it’s up to you to actually use them! Whether you own a single rental property or a large real estate portfolio, put these tax strategies to work and allow your investments to compound even faster!    In This Episode We Cover  Seven real estate tax strategies that could put thousands back in your pocket  Two ways to defer capital gains taxes when you sell a rental property  How to offset your active income with real estate professional status (REPS)  How to accelerate depreciation deductions with a cost segregation study  Everyday operating expenses that often qualify as tax write-offs  And So Much More!

But you do need patience, discipline, and a willingness to play the long game. Real estate won’t make you rich overnight, but it’s incredibly forgiving—meaning you can make mistakes, lose money in the short term, and still come out on top.    Apolo Ohno understands this concept better than most, having dedicated his entire youth to becoming a short-track speed skater. He reached the pinnacle of the sport, competing in three Winter Olympic Games and taking home several medals.    But when his skating career ended 16 years ago, he faced a challenge he hadn’t trained for. He calls it the “great divorce”—separating from an identity that had shaped nearly every part of his life. Thankfully, many of the skills he had spent decades honing translated to real estate investing.    Now, Apolo operates at the intersection of high-performance business and wellness, helping entrepreneurs achieve their goals in a more sustainable way. And today, he’s sharing the lessons that helped him weather tough times, why your investing network is your single greatest advantage, and how to avoid burnout on the road to financial freedom.    In This Episode We Cover  Essential skills and habits of successful real estate investors  How to “hard pivot” from one career to real estate investing  How to find the best real estate deals through your investing network  Investing mistakes that cost Apolo money during the Great Financial Crisis  Why real estate is one of the “most forgiving” asset classes  And So Much More!

But you do need patience, discipline, and a willingness to play the long game. Real estate won’t make you rich overnight, but it’s incredibly forgiving—meaning you can make mistakes, lose money in the short term, and still come out on top.    Apolo Ohno understands this concept better than most, having dedicated his entire youth to becoming a short-track speed skater. He reached the pinnacle of the sport, competing in three Winter Olympic Games and taking home several medals.    But when his skating career ended 16 years ago, he faced a challenge he hadn’t trained for. He calls it the “great divorce”—separating from an identity that had shaped nearly every part of his life. Thankfully, many of the skills he had spent decades honing translated to real estate investing.    Now, Apolo operates at the intersection of high-performance business and wellness, helping entrepreneurs achieve their goals in a more sustainable way. And today, he’s sharing the lessons that helped him weather tough times, why your investing network is your single greatest advantage, and how to avoid burnout on the road to financial freedom.    In This Episode We Cover  Essential skills and habits of successful real estate investors  How to “hard pivot” from one career to real estate investing  How to find the best real estate deals through your investing network  Investing mistakes that cost Apolo money during the Great Financial Crisis  Why real estate is one of the “most forgiving” asset classes  And So Much More!

But one conversation with a regretful investment banker changed his life’s trajectory and set him on a path toward financial freedom through real estate investing. Just three years later, he owns 40 rental properties producing thousands in monthly cash flow!    Once Larry realized the impact that rental properties could have on his wealth, time, lifestyle, and flexibility, he wasted no time in buying his first rental property. While still in college, he sold his car, scrounged together a down payment, and bought a duplex out in the Midwest.

Mortgage rates just shot up to above 7% with no relief in sight. Markets are seeing (substantial) price cuts, and there could be much more to come this winter. So, is a crash on the way, or is this lukewarm correction simply becoming something stronger than we had imagined?    In this September 2026 housing market update, we’ll cover it all! First, we’ll talk about the massive change in mortgage rates this month, what’s caused it, and whether any relief is on the horizon. If rates stay high and more buyers are booted from the market, sellers will need to act—that means price cuts, concessions, and negotiating power for the buyers that remain.     But will this turn into a full-blown crash, or are there too many macroeconomic legs propping up the housing market? Dave gives his full risk report and shares where he thinks interest rates could end up hovering. Plus, the tactic he’s using to get 10%, 15%, or even 20% off real estate deals while sellers have their backs against the wall.    In This Episode We Cover  What caused mortgage rates to surge earlier this month to the 7%+ range   Why prices could drop even more in winter and the serious discounts Dave is finding   Some of the best and worst real estate markets in the U.S. (which are holding up?)  Chances of this market flipping from a correction to a housing market crash   What happens as buyers exit the market with the most homes for sale in six years?  And So Much More!

Mortgage rates just shot up to above 7% with no relief in sight. Markets are seeing (substantial) price cuts, and there could be much more to come this winter. So, is a crash on the way, or is this lukewarm correction simply becoming something stronger than we had imagined?    In this September 2026 housing market update, we’ll cover it all! First, we’ll talk about the massive change in mortgage rates this month, what’s caused it, and whether any relief is on the horizon. If rates stay high and more buyers are booted from the market, sellers will need to act—that means price cuts, concessions, and negotiating power for the buyers that remain.     But will this turn into a full-blown crash, or are there too many macroeconomic legs propping up the housing market? Dave gives his full risk report and shares where he thinks interest rates could end up hovering. Plus, the tactic he’s using to get 10%, 15%, or even 20% off real estate deals while sellers have their backs against the wall.    In This Episode We Cover  What caused mortgage rates to surge earlier this month to the 7%+ range   Why prices could drop even more in winter and the serious discounts Dave is finding   Some of the best and worst real estate markets in the U.S. (which are holding up?)  Chances of this market flipping from a correction to a housing market crash   What happens as buyers exit the market with the most homes for sale in six years?  And So Much More!

What about getting a rate in the 3% or 4% range, or putting only 5%-15% down on a property that’s not only affordable but also in the path of progress? As interest rates climb higher and buyers step back, investors have opportunities that haven’t been available in years, and in 2027, these opportunities could get even better.    Today, we’re talking with another rental property investing veteran (literally), Zach Lemaster.

He tried (and initially failed) at out-of-state investing before developing his own system to buy in the best markets with the best management so he could retire from his 9-5.    He did it, and in doing so created Rent to Retirement, one of the nation’s leading turnkey companies. Today, he’s sharing the actual strategy he’s personally using to get 10% (up to 15%) off rental properties, how he scores low (3%-4% range) interest rates, and builds his portfolio, and his customers’ portfolios, with loans as little as 5%-15% down.

It’s not hard, it’s not complicated, and it’s (arguably) one of the best residential real estate investments to make right now. Why? Safer financing, faster scale, and bigger cash flow. Unlike single-family rentals, small multifamily real estate was designed to make you money, and the returns clearly show that.    So how do you get your first duplex, triplex, or quadplex this year? Today, Dave is walking through each step you need to take.

It’s not hard, it’s not complicated, and it’s (arguably) one of the best residential real estate investments to make right now. Why? Safer financing, faster scale, and bigger cash flow.

The problem? All those gurus and guides online were only selling a fantasy. The one thing that seemed to actually generate income: real estate. When a property that could easily be split into two units came on the market, Kent jumped at the chance. Little did he know this $14,000 down payment would become an entire real estate portfolio that would help him retire early from his job.    At 46, Kent bought his first rental property (just two years ago, in 2024). The purchase price? A mere $70,000. With a small renovation, this property began bringing in $3,000/month in rent and some serious cash flow. Now that there was home equity to pull from, it was time to repeat this system.    Kent has now done this same type of deal four times, going from zero units to 10 units in just two years. He’s even gotten his young son involved, helping his 20-year-old profit nearly $50,000 from a similar deal! Kent’s close to replacing his income and fully stepping away from his 9-5, reaching early retirement, and dedicating all his time to real estate. He started in 2024 when most people thought real estate investing was past its prime—according to Kent, we’re still not even close!     In This Episode We Cover  The affordable real estate market where you can pick up rentals for just $70,000  How to turn a big single-family home into a cash-flowing duplex or triplex   Using the BRRRR strategy to get paid to buy rental properties (seriously!)  When it’s smart to use a HELOC (home equity line of credit) as a down payment   How to pass down wealth and wisdom to your kids so they can reach financial freedom, too   And So Much More!

All those gurus and guides online were only selling a fantasy. The one thing that seemed to actually generate income: real estate. When a property that could easily be split into two units came on the market, Kent jumped at the chance. Little did he know this $14,000 down payment would become an entire real estate portfolio that would help him retire early from his job.    At 46, Kent bought his first rental property (just two years ago, in 2024). The purchase price? A mere $70,000. With a small renovation, this property began bringing in $3,000/month in rent and some serious cash flow. Now that there was home equity to pull from, it was time to repeat this system.    Kent has now done this same type of deal four times, going from zero units to 10 units in just two years. He’s even gotten his young son involved, helping his 20-year-old profit nearly $50,000 from a similar deal! Kent’s close to replacing his income and fully stepping away from his 9-5, reaching early retirement, and dedicating all his time to real estate. He started in 2024 when most people thought real estate investing was past its prime—according to Kent, we’re still not even close!     In This Episode We Cover  The affordable real estate market where you can pick up rentals for just $70,000  How to turn a big single-family home into a cash-flowing duplex or triplex   Using the BRRRR strategy to get paid to buy rental properties (seriously!)  When it’s smart to use a HELOC (home equity line of credit) as a down payment   How to pass down wealth and wisdom to your kids so they can reach financial freedom, too   And So Much More!

Budgeting for renovations is one of the things that trips new investors up, which is why we’re bringing you a two-part series on estimating rehab costs. In part one, we’re taking a deep dive into the “big five”—the five major home systems that can make or break your next investment. We’re covering everything from roof to foundation, and even a bonus sixth system that’s much more costly to replace than you probably think.    These are the line items that strike fear into investors due to their potentially high price tags. But rather than passing on a great deal, you’ll learn exactly what to look for when inspecting these systems, how much it costs to repair or replace them, and when to bring in an expert.    Whether you’re flipping houses or making improvements to raise rents, these are the tips and tricks you need to accurately create your budget, avoid expensive surprises, and ensure you’re buying a great property—not a money pit!    In This Episode We Cover  The “big five” systems to check (thoroughly) when walking a property  How to spot when a roof has “failed” and needs to be replaced  Two telltale signs that you should replace a home’s windows  The number one mistake investors make when estimating foundation repairs  How much it actually costs to fully replumb your property  Dangerous electrical issues that require immediate attention  And So Much More!

Budgeting for renovations is one of the things that trips new investors up, which is why we’re bringing you a two-part series on estimating rehab costs. In part one, we’re taking a deep dive into the “big five”—the five major home systems that can make or break your next investment. We’re covering everything from roof to foundation, and even a bonus sixth system that’s much more costly to replace than you probably think.    These are the line items that strike fear into investors due to their potentially high price tags. But rather than passing on a great deal, you’ll learn exactly what to look for when inspecting these systems, how much it costs to repair or replace them, and when to bring in an expert.    Whether you’re flipping houses or making improvements to raise rents, these are the tips and tricks you need to accurately create your budget, avoid expensive surprises, and ensure you’re buying a great property—not a money pit!    In This Episode We Cover  The “big five” systems to check (thoroughly) when walking a property  How to spot when a roof has “failed” and needs to be replaced  Two telltale signs that you should replace a home’s windows  The number one mistake investors make when estimating foundation repairs  How much it actually costs to fully replumb your property  Dangerous electrical issues that require immediate attention  And So Much More!

First, we’re touching on whether or not the market has already peaked in 2026. We still have four full months left in the year, but with home sales falling in July, it could signal that the hot summer is starting to cool. But a surprising type of home is still selling fast—it’s not the newly renovated house flip—it’s the ugly, outdated home next door. Why? We’re explaining in this episode.    JPMorgan Chase makes a $750B bet on housing, signaling that America’s largest bank is bullish on a certain type of real estate. Finally, the latest inflation rate update—the CPI (consumer price index) stayed in check last month, but is it enough to stop the Federal Reserve from raising rates?

They just do nine things better than most other investors—boring, repeatable habits that make you rich over time.    This is what separates successful investors from those who never quite reach their goals, flame out after a deal or two, or stay stuck on the sidelines. Many of these habits are much simpler than you think—things like investing consistently, being patient, and treating real estate investing like an actual business—yet most investors don’t do any of them.    Today, we’re sharing exactly what these nine habits are and how you can practice them throughout your own real estate business. Whether you’re starting from zero or already own a few rental properties, these are universal principles that any (and every) investor can benefit from.    You don’t need to master all nine of them overnight or even this year. Pick one or two, get to work, and you’ll start to see real results!

For years, investors were using the one-percent rule to quickly determine if a real estate deal would cash flow. But the one-percent rule, rent-to-price ratio, and other common rules of thumb have a glaring blind spot. They account for purchase price, but they don’t account for expenses.    Meanwhile, mortgage rates, taxes, and insurance have all risen across the board—expenses that can easily kill your cash flow.    So, Dave’s come up with a new rule of thumb you can use to quickly analyze rental properties and markets. He’s calling it the rent-to-payment ratio. By comparing estimated rents to the estimated PITI payment itself, you’ll have a much better idea of whether a rental property will actually cash flow month to month.    And today, we’re not just breaking down how the formula works. Dave also built an entire spreadsheet that ranks U.S. real estate markets by their rent-to-payment ratios. Whether you’re looking for the best cash flow markets to invest in or a quick way to weed out unprofitable properties, this is the kind of math you need to make sharper investing decisions in 2026.    In This Episode We Cover  The “new” rule of thumb for finding great real estate deals and rental markets  Why rent-to-price ratio is a flawed metric (and which ratio to use instead)  Why the popular one-percent rule no longer works in 2026  The top 10 real estate markets with the highest rent-to-payment ratios  How to bake today’s mortgage rates, taxes, and insurance into your initial analysis  And So Much More!

He bought properties sight unseen, chose markets that made the most money, and routinely reinvested his home equity. He started with zero real estate experience, and his first real investment went way over budget, but he bounced back and has already replaced a sizable chunk of his salary.    Stuck in San Diego, Bryan knew he wanted to invest, but not in the million-dollar houses around him. The best bet? Move to a cheaper market (Arizona), buy a home, and try to invest there. A HELOC-funded house flip with a friend turned into a six-figure renovation, but they both walked away unscathed. After returning to San Diego with his newborn son, Bryan was determined to invest somewhere affordable, scalable, and profitable.    Over the next few years, Bryan bought duplexes in South Dakota, seller-financed portfolios in Arkansas, and short-term rentals in Virginia. He used equity to make down payments, moved markets when he found better deals, and now makes over $5,000/month on his rentals alone, living in Southern California and investing from thousands of miles away.     Priced out of your market? Feel like you’re boxed out of investing? If you’ve got a laptop, a phone, and some starting capital, you can repeat Bryan’s process!    In This Episode We Cover  How to use home equity (via a HELOC) to buy your first investment property   Choosing a market with the best cash flow potential (and tenant pool)  How to find seller-financeable rental property deals even in a market you’re brand new to  Buying investment properties sight unseen confidently when you’re hundreds or thousands of miles away   The creative investment Bryan made that is not a rental property but is in real estate   And So Much More!

For years, there was no debate. The ability to buy a property at a discount, add value through renovations, force appreciation, and recycle your money made the BRRRR method a no-brainer for most investors.    But in 2026, things are a little different. Builders are sitting on inventory, which means new homes are being sold for less than we’ve seen in years. Not to mention, builders are giving buyers massive incentives like mortgage rate buydowns, closing credits, and even price reductions—just to get these properties off their books.    But are these perks enough to make new construction a better option than the BRRRR strategy?    Today, we’re going to put them head-to-head and find out. I’m comparing two real estate deals in the exact same market—a new construction home and a value-add property. We’ll crunch the numbers and see which strategy actually comes out on top from a cash flow and appreciation perspective. The answer may surprise you.    In This Episode We Cover  Three scenarios when you might prefer a new build to a fixer-upper  A head-to-head comparison of two real estate deals in the same market  How to negotiate huge builder incentives when buying a new home  How to choose the right investing strategy for you in 2026  The biggest pros and cons of buying a new construction home  And So Much More!

Now comes the question: How much do you put down? Do you buy multiple cheaper properties or splurge and put the entire down payment into one bigger, arguably more stable rental? Should you start to scale from the jump or test the real estate investing waters before committing more money? After buying dozens of rental units, Dave and Henry have a clear opinion.    We’re back with your questions from the BiggerPockets Forums! A real estate rookie is wondering whether they should spend $100K on one down payment or split it up into multiple, cheaper rental properties. Another is planning on putting very little money down on his first house hack, but do the numbers add up in this not-so-stable housing market? If you’re ready for your first deal, both of these answers could give you peace of mind.    You’re about to sell a house flip for some serious profit—can you move that money (tax-free) into rental properties via a 1031 exchange? And if so, is the 1031 exchange worth the headache that comes with the timeline? Finally, a landlord is fed up with their rental and wants to sell. She has two choices: sell for cash and break even, or fix it up and potentially realize a five-figure profit. Would Henry, the renovation expert, make that bet?    Ask Your Question on the BiggerPockets Forums!    In This Episode We Cover  How much you should put down on each rental property you buy   What a solid first house hack actually looks like (mortgage, rent, etc.)  Why we don’t factor in rent growth (most of the time) when analyzing rental properties   Can you use a 1031 exchange to turn a house flip into a rental portfolio?

He’s even been able to quit his job and focus on his rentals full-time. But how did he pull all of this off—and in such little time?    Early on, Andres had one goal: maximize the cash flow on every property he bought. This led him to co-living, an investing strategy where you have multiple tenants under the same roof. The cash flow was so strong that he has deployed this strategy across his entire portfolio.  But the journey hasn’t been easy. In today’s episode, Andres shares all the growing pains—from making 200 cold calls a day to find off-market deals to working with shady contractors and navigating difficult tenant disputes.    Through it all, his pure hustle and grit have paid off. Whether you’re looking for creative ways to scale your real estate portfolio or create enough cash flow to replace your salary, Andres has a blueprint that works—even here in 2026!    In This Episode We Cover  How Andres went from waiting tables to making $13,000+/month with rentals  How to scale your real estate portfolio faster using other people’s money (OPM)  The biggest myths (and truths) surrounding the co-living strategy  The number one thing you must get right when operating a co-living property  The real estate markets where the co-living strategy works best  And So Much More!

In fact, it’s still one of my absolute favorite investing strategies today. But in 2026, you need to change how you use it.    I’m about to show you a variation of the traditional BRRRR that gives you all the upside and scalability you’d expect from one of these deals, but with far less risk, more time, and greater flexibility. And in this housing market? That’s exactly what you need.    I’m talking about the “slow” BRRRR. The steps are similar: You still buy a rental property, rehab it, rent it out to tenants, refinance, and repeat the process, but here’s where this strategy takes a turn. Rather than targeting a run-down property and maximizing its value, you identify a completely habitable, cash-flowing property that just needs a little TLC.    This achieves three things that the average BRRRR doesn’t, and it could be the difference between merely buying a decent property and landing a home-run deal. And I’ll prove it to you with a real example property. We’ll crunch the numbers, compare potential returns, and outline eight steps for putting this strategy into action in 2026!    In This Episode We Cover  How to execute the “slow” BRRRR strategy in 2026 (step by step)  A real example property with real numbers and potential returns  How to identify the right kind of rental property for this strategy  Three reasons why Dave prefers the “slow” BRRRR to other investing strategies  Why you don’t need to perform a “perfect” BRRRR for it to be a win  And So Much More!

There are thousands of videos, podcasts, books, and forums floating around. Where do you even start? The amount of information alone is enough to keep you stuck on the sidelines. Not to mention, there’s a lot of bad information out there.    In this episode, we’re giving you a clear roadmap for getting all the information you need before buying your first rental property.    Property management? Finding contractors? Those are tomorrow’s problems. To get in the game and buy a good investment now, there are only a few skills you really need to hone. We’ll show you exactly what they are and where you can go to learn all about them. These are specific tools for those who are learning the ropes—resources we wish we had access to when we were starting out.    Stop trying to learn everything. Learn these things, in this order, and you’ll be taking down real estate deals in no time!

He’s already bought four rental properties that make over $6,000 in monthly cash flow, and he’s been investing in real estate for just eight months.    Joe Crocker is eager to trade his 70-hour workweek for financial freedom, and he’s on track to replace his W-2 income with rental cash flow in the next two years. He’s not finding these properties by building lists, cold calling, or sending mailers. These are regular deals right off the MLS. He buys one, adds some value, pulls his money out, and buys the next one.    It’s a simple investing strategy that anyone can use, yet most people don’t. Meanwhile, Joe has already completed multiple deals this year and is well on his way to building a cash-flowing rental portfolio that gives him the money, time, and freedom he’s always wanted. Follow his model, and there’s no reason why you can’t, too!    In This Episode We Cover  The exact strategy Joe’s using to replace his income with rental cash flow  Scaling to four rental properties in just eight months while working his W-2 job  The simple property tax strategy that can instantly boost your cash flow  How to find overlooked, undervalued real estate deals in 2026 (on the MLS!)

This is how to do it right: get the best tenants and the highest rent.     For most Americans, renting out their previous primary residence will be their first experience in real estate investing. Thankfully, renting out your house like a professional is not hard; you just have to follow a few key steps that inexperienced investors will completely skip over. Today, Dave is sharing his step-by-step guide to renting out your home, even if you have no experience, even if you’re self-managing.    From estimating how much to charge for rent to listing your property, screening tenants, collecting security deposits, and keeping the cash flow coming, anyone can be a good landlord if they put in the effort. When done right, renting out your home can give you another stream of income, tens or even hundreds of thousands in equity over the long term, and experience in real estate investing.    You’ve got the house; this is how you rent it out.    In This Episode We Cover  How to know whether you should rent out your house in the first place (or sell it)  Estimating what to charge for rent (and the most accurate way to do it)  Should you hire a property manager or self-manage your rental?  Landlord insurance 101: Why you must switch before your tenant moves in  How to screen tenants legally (and fairly) to get the best ones in your property   Traps to avoid at all costs when renting out your home (Dave’s $5,000 mistake)   And So Much More!

When done right, renting out your home can give you another stream of income, tens or even hundreds of thousands in equity over the long term, and experience in real estate investing.    You’ve got the house; this is how you rent it out.    In This Episode We Cover  How to know whether you should rent out your house in the first place (or sell it)  Estimating what to charge for rent (and the most accurate way to do it)  Should you hire a property manager or self-manage your rental?  Landlord insurance 101: Why you must switch before your tenant moves in  How to screen tenants legally (and fairly) to get the best ones in your property   Traps to avoid at all costs when renting out your home (Dave’s $5,000 mistake)   And So Much More!

It may not look like anything special here in 2026, but it could be worth tens or even hundreds of thousands of dollars more down the road—IF it has any of the high-upside qualities we’re about to show you.    For the last 18 months, I’ve said that this is real estate investing’s era of “upside.” The “easy” real estate deals you could buy in 2015-2022 are long gone, and what we’re left with are a lot of seemingly unspectacular properties—but ones with hidden upside that is just waiting to be unearthed.    A property with one of these qualities is unlikely to make you rich on its own. You’ve still got to focus on buying high-quality assets at good prices today. But if your property has two, three, or more of these “upside” opportunities, its value could skyrocket five, 10, or 20 years from now.    This isn't just about market-driven appreciation. These are 10 distinct advantages that aren’t on most buyers’ minds when they’re looking for a simple deal that will cash flow, but thinking about them now could pay massive dividends in the future.    In This Episode We Cover  The 10 upside plays that can turn a “good” property into an all-time deal  Value-add opportunities that can add hundreds of thousands of dollars in equity  The huge advantages of owner-occupied strategies (not just better financing)  How to identify properties that have zoning upside or lie in the path of progress  Henry’s “free” land upside play that most real estate investors take for granted  And So Much More!

No complicated strategy. No huge windfall of cash. He made serious mistakes on his first true investment property, but quickly developed a “foolproof” system that allowed him to scale to an impressive real estate portfolio and gave him a sustainable exit path out of his W-2 job.    After getting tired of the “do this or don’t get paid” mentality at his job, Aaron realized he needed another source of income. Stocks required too much upfront cash, homes in his city were too expensive, but what if he looked outside the city? He bought his first property with around $12,000 down, saved up more money, repeated it, made mistakes, succeeded, failed, and did it again, until he had a process that built wealth on repeat.    Now, Aaron has an entire rental portfolio to rely on for income as he takes this interview from Portugal as part of a one-year trip around the world. It’s only possible because he took the first step—buying just one property.

If you can save up just one down payment for a rental property, you can use the strategy I’m about to share and repeat it until you build an income-replacing investment property portfolio, without needing a new down payment every time you buy. Today, I’m walking through one of the most powerful investing strategies that is so simple most investors ignore it.    I’ll also prove that you do not need 20 rental properties to comfortably replace your income—you only need seven.    This strategy is a more 2026-friendly version of the famous BRRRR (buy, rehab, rent, refinance, repeat) method. It’s relatively low risk, doesn’t require you to do some huge, complicated renovation, and allows you to turn one rental property down payment into an entire real estate portfolio. I’ll walk through the numbers using a real property for sale, and then extrapolate to prove that a small, powerful rental portfolio can replace your income.

His retirement fund? It wasn’t doing anything for him today, so he did something most would call “crazy”: he cashed it out. And it was the best move he could’ve made, as it’s helped him buy 23 rental properties and generate well over $100,000 a year in true cash flow!    Nathan’s using an investing strategy that any investor can copy: buy small (and affordable) properties, fix them up, and rent them out. It’s simple, it’s boring, and it’s exactly how he’s making six figures in annual cash flow. But there’s another wrinkle to Nathan’s story: he only lives on his W-2 income, which means 100% of his rental cash flow gets reinvested back into his business.    Now, he’s focused on optimizing his properties for even more cash flow, and in this episode, he shares the four levers he’s pulling to do just that. Whether you’re looking to scale your real estate portfolio or stabilize the properties you already own, Nathan’s slow, patient, conservative approach to real estate investing is a winning formula in 2026!

It wasn’t doing anything for him today, so he did something most would call “crazy”: he cashed it out. And it was the best move he could’ve made, as it’s helped him buy 23 rental properties and generate well over $100,000 a year in true cash flow!    Nathan’s using an investing strategy that any investor can copy: buy small (and affordable) properties, fix them up, and rent them out. It’s simple, it’s boring, and it’s exactly how he’s making six figures in annual cash flow. But there’s another wrinkle to Nathan’s story: he only lives on his W-2 income, which means 100% of his rental cash flow gets reinvested back into his business.    Now, he’s focused on optimizing his properties for even more cash flow, and in this episode, he shares the four levers he’s pulling to do just that. Whether you’re looking to scale your real estate portfolio or stabilize the properties you already own, Nathan’s slow, patient, conservative approach to real estate investing is a winning formula in 2026!

You don’t need to do any complicated math, you don’t need to sign up for a course, and you don’t need to have previous rental property experience.

When Brian Waters ran the numbers, he realized he was still decades away from being able to leave his nine-to-five. He needed a lifeline, and he found one in real estate investing.

Newer systems, fewer repairs, and that “brand new” feeling that tenants may pay more rent for. But…is it worth it? Building a small multifamily in a single-family area could let you house hack and own a rare property in your market, but is the headache worth the effort?    With more and more investors choosing to build rather than buy, we thought we’d weigh in.    Dave and Henry are back answering your questions from the BiggerPockets Forums. Today, we’re talking about building vs. buying rentals, when an investment property is too old to be worth buying, the lender-friendly rehab budget Henry uses to get loans for his BRRRRs (buy, rehab, rent, refinance, repeat) and house flips, and whether wholesalers (middlemen) are worth buying properties from.    Plus, if you’re house hacking, should you tell the tenant you’re the owner? Dave tried to hide it before, and shares whether it was worth it.     In This Episode We Cover  Building vs. buying rental properties: is the time (and effort) worth the upside?   Renovating an older rental property?

Newer systems, fewer repairs, and that “brand new” feeling that tenants may pay more rent for. But…is it worth it? Building a small multifamily in a single-family area could let you house hack and own a rare property in your market, but is the headache worth the effort?    With more and more investors choosing to build rather than buy, we thought we’d weigh in.    Dave and Henry are back answering your questions from the BiggerPockets Forums. Today, we’re talking about building vs. buying rentals, when an investment property is too old to be worth buying, the lender-friendly rehab budget Henry uses to get loans for his BRRRRs (buy, rehab, rent, refinance, repeat) and house flips, and whether wholesalers (middlemen) are worth buying properties from.    Plus, if you’re house hacking, should you tell the tenant you’re the owner? Dave tried to hide it before, and shares whether it was worth it.     In This Episode We Cover  Building vs. buying rental properties: is the time (and effort) worth the upside?   Renovating an older rental property? This build decade could be best   Henry’s exact renovation budget he shares with lenders to get fast financing   Are wholesalers worth their assignment fee? When we will and won’t buy from them  Should you tell your tenants that you’re the owner (what happens if they find out?)  And So Much More!

But when he asked his coworkers about the company 401(k), he left more confused than convinced. In searching for answers, he discovered a much better path: real estate investing.    Then, with just $5,000 in savings, he bought his first rental property—a triplex he house hacked to cover his mortgage. That first property snowballed into the next one, and in just six years, Niyi quit his W-2 job. Today, he owns 14 properties, including small multifamily rentals, Airbnbs, and even a self-storage facility. His portfolio generates more than enough cash flow to live on, but instead, he continues to funnel everything toward the next property.

They’re wrong.    House flipping isn’t dead. The “easy” money is.

We’ve done the math, we’ve crunched the numbers, and we've run the playbook ourselves—using rental properties, you can replace a significant portion of your income in just around a decade. Today, we’re sharing the exact strategy to get you there.     Most retirees have a small sum in savings and a Social Security check to count on in retirement. But what if you want more income to travel, experience, or donate as you see fit?

We’ve done the math, we’ve crunched the numbers, and we've run the playbook ourselves—using rental properties, you can replace a significant portion of your income in just around a decade. Today, we’re sharing the exact strategy to get you there.     Most retirees have a small sum in savings and a Social Security check to count on in retirement. But what if you want more income to travel, experience, or donate as you see fit? Even if you feel like the retirement timeline is closing in on you, you have options, but you’ll need to follow a plan.     In this episode, I’m walking through exactly how to go from no rentals to comfortable retirement in around a decade, and how someone in their 40s or 50s can do it easier than someone in their 20s or 30s!

Having lost everything he had saved throughout his early twenties, his only option was to rebuild. But with what? He needed something that could help him offset his living expenses today and propel him toward retirement.    That “something” was rentals.    But Matt didn’t just buy a couple of rental properties and sit back. He did what many investors won’t: he house hacked. And again. And again. Nine times in 13 years.

All the extra hours, all that hard work, equaled the equivalent of an inflation-matching salary bump. That was it—it was time to put his financial freedom in his own hands.    Remington began building an income-replacing rental property portfolio, so when the day came that he was laid off, he’d be more than prepared. Remington was ready to go, and that’s when the real scaling started.    Just ten years after buying his first rental, Remington has over 100 rental units, including sizable commercial buildings with strong cash flow, properties that are capital gains tax-free when he sells them, and units that generate 100% more cash flow than traditional rental properties.

You’re listening to this show because you’re either interested in or investing in real estate, but we’ve been invited to debate someone with a different perspective.     Ryan Sterling, CEO of NerdWallet Wealth Partners, has owned real estate investments but has since sold them and opted for something simpler, easier, and, in his opinion, more worth the money.

She didn’t start with a ton of cash; she worked full-time, and she often put very little down. Using an owner-occupied strategy that 99% of investors won’t dare to try, she’s reached financial freedom while raising three kids.     So how’d she do it?    Today, we’re talking to Rachel Duck from central Texas. She took a popular strategy—the live-in flip—and made it even better: buying houses with 5% down, living in them for a year, fixing them up, moving out, and repeating. She did it with three kids and spent her 5-9 after her 9-5 renovating homes so she could rent them and repeat.    The result? Millions of dollars in equity that has made her financially free. Today, she’s giving you the blueprint so you can do it too.

She didn’t start with a ton of cash; she worked full-time, and she often put very little down. Using an owner-occupied strategy that 99% of investors won’t dare to try, she’s reached financial freedom while raising three kids.     So how’d she do it?    Today, we’re talking to Rachel Duck from central Texas. She took a popular strategy—the live-in flip—and made it even better: buying houses with 5% down, living in them for a year, fixing them up, moving out, and repeating. She did it with three kids and spent her 5-9 after her 9-5 renovating homes so she could rent them and repeat.    The result? Millions of dollars in equity that has made her financially free. Today, she’s giving you the blueprint so you can do it too. Rachel shares the tips for your first live-in renovation rental, the expensive mistake she made that you can avoid, how to do it while raising kids and working 9-5, and the low-money-down loans she used to scale without putting up tons of cash.    In This Episode We Cover  One of the smartest strategies for growing your real estate portfolio fast  The “uncomfortable” rentals that make you rich and give you a place to live  Low-money-down loans you can use to buy your first property for 5% down  Rachel’s exact buy box for rental properties and live-in flip-style rentals   Tips before you buy a property that you’ll live in and renovate   And So Much More!

In an area that has high housing prices, tough landlord laws, or little-to-no cash flow potential? We’ve got you covered. We’re sharing 12 markets that are making money for real estate investors right now. Regardless of your strategy, we have markets for you. From long-term rentals to short-term rentals and Airbnbs, house hacking cities that will help cover your mortgage, and house flipping markets with high returns and low rehab costs.    We didn’t want to give you just one option to choose from, so Dave, Henry, and Ashley Kehr from the Real Estate Rookie podcast brought along three separate markets for each real estate investing strategy. From overlooked affordable suburbs with solid population growth to tourist towns that are making killer nightly rates during busy season, and even some sneaky top-tier markets that many would assume house hacking wouldn’t work (but it does!).    We’ll walk through why we like each market, their population and job growth, average home prices and rent prices, and the strategy that would make the most sense there. You can invest in real estate in 2026; you’ve just got to pick the right place!    See Dave, Henry, AND Ashley at BPCON2026!     In This Episode We Cover  12 top real estate investing markets in 2026 (most of which you may have never heard of)  The cash flow and appreciation “hybrid” market with huge population growth   A beach town with over 18 million yearly visitors and killer short-term rental rates  One underrated city where you can be all-in on a house flip for $200K (and make serious profit)  The one city where Dave would move if he were starting his real estate investing all over again   We’d invest in this state…even if everyone else tells you not to   And So Much More!

There’s no denying that rising interest rates, sluggish rent growth, and other factors have taken the shine off many properties that would have been home-run deals only a few years ago.    But this is real estate we’re talking about. Buy-and-hold investing tends to reward people in the long run. It’s just that, to buy in this market, you’ve got to adapt.    Chad “Coach” Carson believes these market conditions heavily favor the “small and mighty” investor—the person who isn’t looking to buy at a massive scale but actually handpick one or two great assets every year. But there’s one caveat: you must have the time, grit, and hunger to go out and find real estate deals that the more experienced, “lazy” investors can’t be bothered with.    And Chad’s about to show you how to do just that. He shares how his own buy box has evolved in the last 12 months, his favorite strategies for buying off-market properties today, and what every investor can do to slowly and steadily build a rental portfolio that provides the lifestyle they want—no matter the market.    In This Episode We Cover  The two biggest ways to win as a “small” real estate investor in 2026  Why getting a strong cash-on-cash return today isn’t as important as you think  The new investor’s superpower when looking for off-market properties  Chad’s 3-2-1 strategy for building a portfolio with new construction homes  The number one mistake most investors make shortly after buying a rental property  The exact blueprint Chad would follow if you dropped him in a new market today  How to arrive at “enough” when everyone tells you to keep scaling  And So Much More!

This is our June 2026 housing market update!     It could be the most encouraging sign for the housing market in years—prices haven’t crashed, Americans are actually buying more homes, and many traditionally hot markets are seeing complete buyer control.

Most Americans think getting wealthy is only for those willing to work 100+ hour weeks, build a business from scratch, inherit millions, or get a high-paying six-figure job.    That’s not the case. The average American can get wealthy—you just need to follow this “good enough” system.    Morgan spent the early part of his career covering lessons from the fallout of the 2008 Great Financial Crisis. Economics couldn’t make sense of it, and what he found was that psychology could. Knowing how to win the money game puts you in the player’s seat, instead of watching from the sidelines. And today, Morgan shares the biggest lessons to get in the game.    From the simple “system” both he and Dave use to build wealth to the #1 skill of a wealthy investor, when you should spend more money, and why merely working harder isn’t going to get you what you want. Morgan even shares his strong opinion on the #1 thing wrong with the housing market today—and how we could actually fix it.     In This Episode We Cover  Morgan’s simple “system” for building wealth even if you don’t have tons of extra income  Why retiring early is not the goal worth striving for (and what is better)  How much of a return should you be making on your investments?

Most Americans think getting wealthy is only for those willing to work 100+ hour weeks, build a business from scratch, inherit millions, or get a high-paying six-figure job.    That’s not the case. The average American can get wealthy—you just need to follow this “good enough” system.    Morgan spent the early part of his career covering lessons from the fallout of the 2008 Great Financial Crisis. Economics couldn’t make sense of it, and what he found was that psychology could. Knowing how to win the money game puts you in the player’s seat, instead of watching from the sidelines. And today, Morgan shares the biggest lessons to get in the game.    From the simple “system” both he and Dave use to build wealth to the #1 skill of a wealthy investor, when you should spend more money, and why merely working harder isn’t going to get you what you want. Morgan even shares his strong opinion on the #1 thing wrong with the housing market today—and how we could actually fix it.     In This Episode We Cover  Morgan’s simple “system” for building wealth even if you don’t have tons of extra income  Why retiring early is not the goal worth striving for (and what is better)  How much of a return should you be making on your investments? Morgan’s unique answer   Knowing your “enough” so you can stop worrying, start living, and do what you’re meant to do   Spend more money before it’s too late?

But it wasn’t always like this.     Back in 2012, Erika was working at a bank, climbing the corporate ladder, with no thought of ever retiring before 65. She just couldn’t ignore one thing—every wealthy client at the bank was investing in real estate.

But, as someone who’s been consistently investing, doesn’t own dozens of properties, and has made millions from real estate, I thought I’d do the math.    Today, I’m going to show you how buying just one rental property every two (or even three/four) years can turn you into a millionaire with over $16,000/month in cash flow. You don’t need to buy sketchy properties or take on super risky debt; all you need to do is buy the right rentals consistently.    But there’s a better way to do it. Instead of saving up a down payment every two years (hard enough in this economy), I’ll show you the way I “recycled” my down payments to turn one rental property into an entire real estate portfolio.

But, as someone who’s been consistently investing, doesn’t own dozens of properties, and has made millions from real estate, I thought I’d do the math.    Today, I’m going to show you how buying just one rental property every two (or even three/four) years can turn you into a millionaire with over $16,000/month in cash flow. You don’t need to buy sketchy properties or take on super risky debt; all you need to do is buy the right rentals consistently.    But there’s a better way to do it. Instead of saving up a down payment every two years (hard enough in this economy), I’ll show you the way I “recycled” my down payments to turn one rental property into an entire real estate portfolio.    This is how you slowly, safely, and strategically get to financial freedom with fewer rentals. It’s not magic, it’s math.    In This Episode We Cover  How to build a rental portfolio that will retire you by buying just one rental every two years  How to “recycle” your capital so you don’t have to save up a full down payment   The “BRRRR” strategy that allows you to increase home equity with smart repairs and renovations   The even easier way to get into your first (or next) property with very little money down   The “dollar-cost average” strategy that works for average Americans who want to invest   And So Much More!

It funds the purchase, renovation, closing costs, and up to six months of mortgage payments, so you’re not on the hook when renovating a vacant property, all for 3.5% down.     Today’s guest used it to put down just $9,000 on a house and, less than a year later, had $150,000 in equity. It changed his life and enabled him to become a real estate millionaire, even in an unaffordable market.     Matt Porcaro (AKA The 203k Way) was working in construction in America’s most expensive market—New York City. He could only get preapproved for a loan of a few hundred thousand dollars, which doesn’t buy much in NYC. When a local investor told him about the FHA 203(k) loan, his entire world opened up, and changed his trajectory forever. Now, he has over $1,000,000 in equity and over $2,000,000 in real estate—after just starting with $9,000.    Today, Matt explains the 203(k) loan from start to finish—how much money you need to put down, how to get preapproved, finding contractors, paying for the renovation, what to know before you start, and a new change that makes it even more lucrative in expensive areas of the country. Beginners: This changes the game entirely.     In This Episode We Cover  The best beginner real estate investing loan that only requires 3.5% down   Why getting a 203(k) loan is much less complicated than you think it is  How Matt turned $9,000 into $150,000 in equity in less than a year   The exact steps to take when getting a 203(k) loan (easier method)  A new change to the 203(k) loan that makes getting approved even easier   And So Much More!

Despite a successful 35-year engineering career, today’s guest was still financially dependent on her nine-to-five—until she pivoted to real estate investing. In just four years, she has bought four rental properties and left her W-2 job for good.     When Sandy Lee’s 50th birthday arrived, she realized she wasn’t quite where she wanted to be in life. At a crossroads in her career and still needing at least another five years at her current job before retirement, Sandy was ready for a drastic change (and a new challenge!).    Now, with four short-term rentals and a highly profitable real estate business, Sandy has officially retired and designed her dream lifestyle, where she gets to travel throughout the year while spending only a few hours per week on her real estate portfolio. Whether you’re starting in your 20s or 50s, it’s never too early or too late to invest in real estate, and Sandy is living proof!

Despite a successful 35-year engineering career, today’s guest was still financially dependent on her nine-to-five—until she pivoted to real estate investing. In just four years, she has bought four rental properties and left her W-2 job for good.     When Sandy Lee’s 50th birthday arrived, she realized she wasn’t quite where she wanted to be in life. At a crossroads in her career and still needing at least another five years at her current job before retirement, Sandy was ready for a drastic change (and a new challenge!).    Now, with four short-term rentals and a highly profitable real estate business, Sandy has officially retired and designed her dream lifestyle, where she gets to travel throughout the year while spending only a few hours per week on her real estate portfolio. Whether you’re starting in your 20s or 50s, it’s never too early or too late to invest in real estate, and Sandy is living proof!    In This Episode We Cover  How Sandy built a four-property rental portfolio in just four years  Making $5,000 in monthly cash flow from ONE rental property  How to build a real estate portfolio that supports your ideal lifestyle  Scaling a large portfolio versus having 100% paid-off properties  What really moves the needle for Airbnb revenue and occupancy  When to hire a “revenue manager” for your vacation rental portfolio  And So Much More!

Ever since we started investing, people have always told us to invest in “landlord-friendly” states—places with quicker eviction laws, no or limited rent control, and fewer license requirements and fees. But most Americans will know that the top-appreciating markets like California, New York, Washington, and Hawaii are tenant-friendly.     Are investors leaving money on the table by not investing in these more regulated markets?    Today, we’re getting to the bottom of it. We’ll explain what a tenant-friendly vs. landlord-friendly state is, the real dangers of investing in a tenant-friendly state, whether rent control could kill your real estate investing business, and why not all “landlord-friendly” states are so friendly to your bottom line.    The question is: would we invest in any of these “riskier” markets for landlords? Yes, but with one big caveat. If you can lock one specific skill down, you can invest in the most tenant-friendly states without ever going through an eviction, and make huge appreciation along the way.     In This Episode We Cover  Landlord-friendly vs. tenant-friendly states: the biggest differences between the two  Do tenant-friendly states actually make investors more money?  Rent control, rental licenses, and long evictions: how to plan for all of them   States with the worst (and best) laws for real estate investors   Would we invest in a tenant-friendly state?

Ever since we started investing, people have always told us to invest in “landlord-friendly” states—places with quicker eviction laws, no or limited rent control, and fewer license requirements and fees. But most Americans will know that the top-appreciating markets like California, New York, Washington, and Hawaii are tenant-friendly.     Are investors leaving money on the table by not investing in these more regulated markets?    Today, we’re getting to the bottom of it. We’ll explain what a tenant-friendly vs. landlord-friendly state is, the real dangers of investing in a tenant-friendly state, whether rent control could kill your real estate investing business, and why not all “landlord-friendly” states are so friendly to your bottom line.    The question is: would we invest in any of these “riskier” markets for landlords? Yes, but with one big caveat. If you can lock one specific skill down, you can invest in the most tenant-friendly states without ever going through an eviction, and make huge appreciation along the way.     In This Episode We Cover  Landlord-friendly vs. tenant-friendly states: the biggest differences between the two  Do tenant-friendly states actually make investors more money?  Rent control, rental licenses, and long evictions: how to plan for all of them   States with the worst (and best) laws for real estate investors   Would we invest in a tenant-friendly state? And if so, how would we protect ourselves?   And So Much More!

Paying the bills, having enough for retirement, and being able to afford emergency expenses. And, like many of us, you may have grown up in a household watching your own parents constantly worry or fight over finances. This is one of the crucial anxiety points of Americans—and rentals can change that.    Today, Joel Larsgaard from the How to Money podcast shares his story about how rental properties, and just paying attention to his money, changed his worldview and his family’s financial future. He, too, saw his parents constantly keeping up with the Joneses—buying more house than they could afford, buying expensive cars, struggling to keep up. Joel vowed never to worry the way his parents did.    After discovering personal finance, Joel did what most new real estate investors do: a “no-brainer” house hack. Then he bought another, and another, and another—and over the past sixteen years, built a slow, scalable, financial freedom-enabling rental portfolio, without taking a ton of risk or biting off more than he could chew.     Joel admits it’s harder to invest in 2026, but that’s what makes it a necessity in today’s economy.

There are six ways to fail at real estate investing in 2026, and if you get even a couple of these wrong on your first or next deal, you could be out of the game for years to come.  Trust us, we’re now dealing with five-figure emergency costs because we didn't follow the tips we’re sharing today.     Both Henry and Dave have reached financial freedom in around a decade by doing real estate the right way. But that doesn’t mean they haven’t made very costly mistakes. Whether it’s tenants, repairs, using the wrong calculations, or waiting to talk to this specific person, there are a few crucial landmines to avoid on your next investment property.     So, we’re going through the six ways to fail at real estate investing. If you do the opposite of these six, you’ll make money faster, with way less stress, scale smarter, and probably reach financial freedom even quicker than Henry or Dave.    In This Episode We Cover  What Dave does every single time before he hires someone to work on his rental   The one mistake that led to an $80,000 (that’s right) repair bill   The wrong way to calculate “cash flow” that will have you losing money every month  Why most new investors waste months or years by not talking to these two people   Are home inspections really worth it? This is who should (and shouldn’t) pay for one   The one true way to tell if a tenant will be a great renter or a nightmare   And So Much More!

There are six ways to fail at real estate investing in 2026, and if you get even a couple of these wrong on your first or next deal, you could be out of the game for years to come.  Trust us, we’re now dealing with five-figure emergency costs because we didn't follow the tips we’re sharing today.     Both Henry and Dave have reached financial freedom in around a decade by doing real estate the right way. But that doesn’t mean they haven’t made very costly mistakes. Whether it’s tenants, repairs, using the wrong calculations, or waiting to talk to this specific person, there are a few crucial landmines to avoid on your next investment property.     So, we’re going through the six ways to fail at real estate investing. If you do the opposite of these six, you’ll make money faster, with way less stress, scale smarter, and probably reach financial freedom even quicker than Henry or Dave.    In This Episode We Cover  What Dave does every single time before he hires someone to work on his rental   The one mistake that led to an $80,000 (that’s right) repair bill   The wrong way to calculate “cash flow” that will have you losing money every month  Why most new investors waste months or years by not talking to these two people   Are home inspections really worth it? This is who should (and shouldn’t) pay for one   The one true way to tell if a tenant will be a great renter or a nightmare   And So Much More!

You’re not the only one. Today’s guest built a portfolio of 50 rental properties before margins started getting thin, but one giant pivot changed everything—a pure cash flow play to complement the appreciation and tax benefits from his rentals. If you want cash flow, he’ll show you exactly where to find it!    Today, Devon Kennard makes 12%-14% returns with an investing strategy that doesn’t involve tenants or toilets: private money lending. Better yet, he’s often able to recycle the same capital multiple times per year for even faster returns. And yes, this is real, passive income. Despite scaling to over $12 million in assets under management (AUM), his tech stack allows him to spend just 25 hours a week on his real estate business.    It sounds too good to be true, but with some capital and a few tools, you could start doing private money deals that give you the monthly income you’re unlikely to find with normal rental properties. Devon shows you how to get started with as little as $10,000 and even breaks down a standard deal where he makes $5,000 in monthly cash flow—plus fees upfront!    In This Episode We Cover  How to generate massive cash flow with private money lending  Why Devon pivoted to passive investing after building a 50-property rental portfolio  How to structure your own private money deals (with as little as $10,000)  The three “levels” of private lending you can start using in 2026  The tech stack that makes private money lending easy for new investors  And So Much More!

Now, in 2026, he’s got a portfolio of around 30 rentals composed of small, affordable (mostly) multifamily properties that he’s getting killer returns on. Jesse did it even when mortgage rates were at 8%, even when home prices were flying up and subsequently correcting back down, and even when he didn’t know where he’d find the money to do it.   So, how does someone with zero real estate investing experience scale from no rentals to close to 30 in just five years, during a very volatile housing market? Jesse is sharing exactly how he grew, even when financing was expensive or hard to come by, the small multifamily rentals he looks for that have the most demand in his community, and how he flips (and sometimes accidentally flops) to make five-figure, repeatable profits.   And Jesse’s latest deal is something every investor dreams of. Converting a small hotel into 11 rental units, and, get this, for a $325,000 purchase price, putting just $0 down. It’s true, and after he’s done, this property alone will bring in a portfolio-producing amount of rent. How much? Jesse is sharing the exact numbers in today’s show!    In In This Episode We Cover:  How to scale in real estate investing and go from one rental to an income-replacing portfolio  Jesse’s latest rental: turning a hotel into an 11-unit affordable housing property (with great returns)  The five-figure profit strategy Jesse uses to make $15,000 on hands-off new builds  How to buy (profitable) rentals even when interest rates are high (8%+)  Why knowing an investor-friendly agent is the key to getting exclusive deals sent to you   And So Much More!

Now, in 2026, he’s got a portfolio of around 30 rentals composed of small, affordable (mostly) multifamily properties that he’s getting killer returns on. Jesse did it even when mortgage rates were at 8%, even when home prices were flying up and subsequently correcting back down, and even when he didn’t know where he’d find the money to do it.   So, how does someone with zero real estate investing experience scale from no rentals to close to 30 in just five years, during a very volatile housing market? Jesse is sharing exactly how he grew, even when financing was expensive or hard to come by, the small multifamily rentals he looks for that have the most demand in his community, and how he flips (and sometimes accidentally flops) to make five-figure, repeatable profits.   And Jesse’s latest deal is something every investor dreams of. Converting a small hotel into 11 rental units, and, get this, for a $325,000 purchase price, putting just $0 down. It’s true, and after he’s done, this property alone will bring in a portfolio-producing amount of rent. How much? Jesse is sharing the exact numbers in today’s show!    In In This Episode We Cover:  How to scale in real estate investing and go from one rental to an income-replacing portfolio  Jesse’s latest rental: turning a hotel into an 11-unit affordable housing property (with great returns)  The five-figure profit strategy Jesse uses to make $15,000 on hands-off new builds  How to buy (profitable) rentals even when interest rates are high (8%+)  Why knowing an investor-friendly agent is the key to getting exclusive deals sent to you   And So Much More!

Nope, that’s not clickbait; we’re actually getting rid of cash-flowing rental properties from our real estate portfolios.    But why? And why now?    Is there a market crash we fear is coming? Do we think this is the peak of real estate? Have we finally decided to listen to the social media doomers who keep telling us it’s another 2008? Not quite. Instead, our reasoning behind selling might make a lot more sense than you think. In fact, after you listen to this episode, you might decide to sell some rentals.     So, what are we doing with the money? Are we going to sit on cash, pay off properties, or retire early? Both Dave and Henry have different reasons for selling, but both agree there’s one thing you should do (at least twice a year) to see whether you should sell properties in your portfolio.     Thought you were supposed to “hold forever,” as many of the traditional real estate investors have told you? We have proof that selling can often make you much wealthier than holding—here’s how.    In This Episode We Cover  Why we’re selling parts of our rental property portfolios in 2026   Signs you should sell a rental instead of holding, renovating, or paying it off   What we’re going to do with the money from our property sales   Is the market too risky to hold real estate right now? (We may buy even more)  The one thing every investor should do (at least) twice a year to make the highest returns  Buying from landlords? Great deal funnel or overpriced properties?

Nope, that’s not clickbait; we’re actually getting rid of cash-flowing rental properties from our real estate portfolios.    But why? And why now?    Is there a market crash we fear is coming? Do we think this is the peak of real estate? Have we finally decided to listen to the social media doomers who keep telling us it’s another 2008? Not quite. Instead, our reasoning behind selling might make a lot more sense than you think. In fact, after you listen to this episode, you might decide to sell some rentals.     So, what are we doing with the money? Are we going to sit on cash, pay off properties, or retire early? Both Dave and Henry have different reasons for selling, but both agree there’s one thing you should do (at least twice a year) to see whether you should sell properties in your portfolio.     Thought you were supposed to “hold forever,” as many of the traditional real estate investors have told you? We have proof that selling can often make you much wealthier than holding—here’s how.    In This Episode We Cover  Why we’re selling parts of our rental property portfolios in 2026   Signs you should sell a rental instead of holding, renovating, or paying it off   What we’re going to do with the money from our property sales   Is the market too risky to hold real estate right now? (We may buy even more)  The one thing every investor should do (at least) twice a year to make the highest returns  Buying from landlords? Great deal funnel or overpriced properties?

Wars have begun. Gas prices are rising. Mortgage rates just went back up. It feels like things are getting more unstable by the day, and the average American is struggling to get by. This is a transitionary time in the economy, and we’re making proactive moves to limit the downside (and take advantage of the upside) starting now.    Some real estate is more recession-resistant than others—and that’s what we’re focusing on now. Dave and Henry are outlining the properties they’re looking to buy as risk and opportunity rise simultaneously. If you’re new to real estate investing, we’ll tell you what we’d do starting now to get the lowest-risk rental property in 2026 and which markets could be worth putting your money into.    Current investors—it’s time to start “pruning.” You said you’d never sell, but now may be the time. Both Dave and Henry are actively looking to offload some of their properties to make way for the buying opportunities to come. There are clear signs you should sell in today’s housing market, and if you own a rental property meeting this criteria, it could be time to get that cash out ASAP.    In This Episode We Cover  The best recession-resistant assets? Why we’re still buying this type of real estate   How to invest in real estate even when it feels like the economy is falling apart   Signs you should sell a rental property before the economy gets even worse   The lowest-risk real estate investments that still have solid upsides in 2026   The “green light, yellow light, red light” exercise every current investor needs to perform on their portfolio   And So Much More!

Wars have begun. Gas prices are rising. Mortgage rates just went back up. It feels like things are getting more unstable by the day, and the average American is struggling to get by. This is a transitionary time in the economy, and we’re making proactive moves to limit the downside (and take advantage of the upside) starting now.    Some real estate is more recession-resistant than others—and that’s what we’re focusing on now. Dave and Henry are outlining the properties they’re looking to buy as risk and opportunity rise simultaneously. If you’re new to real estate investing, we’ll tell you what we’d do starting now to get the lowest-risk rental property in 2026 and which markets could be worth putting your money into.    Current investors—it’s time to start “pruning.” You said you’d never sell, but now may be the time. Both Dave and Henry are actively looking to offload some of their properties to make way for the buying opportunities to come. There are clear signs you should sell in today’s housing market, and if you own a rental property meeting this criteria, it could be time to get that cash out ASAP.    In This Episode We Cover  The best recession-resistant assets? Why we’re still buying this type of real estate   How to invest in real estate even when it feels like the economy is falling apart   Signs you should sell a rental property before the economy gets even worse   The lowest-risk real estate investments that still have solid upsides in 2026   The “green light, yellow light, red light” exercise every current investor needs to perform on their portfolio   And So Much More!

Using a new real estate investing “model,” Chauncey Pham has cracked the code to make as much profit as possible from a single property. It’s so genius, we’re surprised no one has come up with it before, but today we’re sharing it with you.    Chauncey has always been good at sales—clearly, when she replaced her W-2 income in the first three months of being a real estate agent. She saw her investor clients making money hand over fist, and thought, “If they can do it, why can’t I?” So her husband quit to help her try flipping houses. The first deal netted a $60K profit.     That was it. It was time to go all-in.    But then Chauncey realized something crucial. In every house flip, dozens of people are getting paid. The buyer’s agent, the seller’s agent, the lenders, the contractors, the stagers, and the title company. This was six figures in expenses that she could be collecting. So, she created a new “model,” what she calls “turnkey house flipping,” that allows her to make six figures without putting a dollar into the deal.    This is exactly how she does it.

Home prices are stagnating or falling, and the hot markets are slowing down. Now, 40% of the U.S. housing market is in decline. This is exactly what we were waiting for. But new risks to the real estate market could flip this “stall” into something more serious. War. Spiking oil prices. A white-collar recession. What happens now?    We’re back with March’s housing market update, giving you the newest data on home prices, inventory, affordability, and some surprisingly good insurance news.     We’re living through what Dave predicted many months ago—the Great Stall. And while it may not sound all that great, there are actually some huge benefits of this stagnant market being passed on to homebuyers and real estate investors. In fact, your home insurance may actually be shrinking because of it. We’ll get into detail on that in the show.    But what about new risks? War in the Middle East, spiking gas prices, and rising unemployment. All of these could have serious effects on real estate. This isn’t 2008 again, but we’re carefully watching one metric that (if increased) could pose a substantial threat to the housing market.     In This Episode We Cover  Why home prices “stalling” is actually a good thing for investors and homebuyers   Cheaper mortgage payments? Huge news for U.S. housing affordability  Why home insurance prices are actually going down in the areas you’d least expect   How to save 5%-10% on your landlord insurance immediately (90% of people don’t do this)  The biggest risks to real estate which could threaten the housing market   Buyers: It’s time.

Home prices are stagnating or falling, and the hot markets are slowing down. Now, 40% of the U.S. housing market is in decline. This is exactly what we were waiting for. But new risks to the real estate market could flip this “stall” into something more serious. War. Spiking oil prices. A white-collar recession. What happens now?    We’re back with March’s housing market update, giving you the newest data on home prices, inventory, affordability, and some surprisingly good insurance news.     We’re living through what Dave predicted many months ago—the Great Stall. And while it may not sound all that great, there are actually some huge benefits of this stagnant market being passed on to homebuyers and real estate investors. In fact, your home insurance may actually be shrinking because of it. We’ll get into detail on that in the show.    But what about new risks? War in the Middle East, spiking gas prices, and rising unemployment. All of these could have serious effects on real estate. This isn’t 2008 again, but we’re carefully watching one metric that (if increased) could pose a substantial threat to the housing market.     In This Episode We Cover  Why home prices “stalling” is actually a good thing for investors and homebuyers   Cheaper mortgage payments? Huge news for U.S. housing affordability  Why home insurance prices are actually going down in the areas you’d least expect   How to save 5%-10% on your landlord insurance immediately (90% of people don’t do this)  The biggest risks to real estate which could threaten the housing market   Buyers: It’s time.

If you’re just beginning to buy rentals or want to overhaul your current portfolio, this is the episode to listen to.    Tim Yu went from zero rental properties to a dozen in just four years, but looking back, he would have done things very differently.

But if you don’t, you’ll learn them the hard way, as many investors do.    These are the 10 things we wish someone had told us before we started buying rental properties.    If you’re like most beginners, you’ve probably got a big goal: 50 rentals in 5 years so that you can be financially free by 30, 40, or 50!

It’s possible, and if you can achieve it, your financial future will change forever. Henry and I have done it—both of us were able to buy four rental properties before our forties, and not only will it allow us to retire early, but our traditional retirement will be much wealthier.     So, how do you start?

With the US tax code being favorable to real estate investors and renewed provisions in the One Big Beautiful Bill, real estate investing is one of the most tax-advantaged investments on the planet. Today, we’re showing you how to pay the least amount of taxes, before tax day 2026!    Amanda Han, CPA and real estate investor, says 40% of the tax returns she reviews are not optimized for deductions. Investors are leaving thousands on the table and giving it straight to the IRS. But after this episode, you won’t have to anymore.    We’re talking about how real estate investors can reduce their taxable income by up to 20%—instantly.

With the US tax code being favorable to real estate investors and renewed provisions in the One Big Beautiful Bill, real estate investing is one of the most tax-advantaged investments on the planet. Today, we’re showing you how to pay the least amount of taxes, before tax day 2026!    Amanda Han, CPA and real estate investor, says 40% of the tax returns she reviews are not optimized for deductions. Investors are leaving thousands on the table and giving it straight to the IRS. But after this episode, you won’t have to anymore.    We’re talking about how real estate investors can reduce their taxable income by up to 20%—instantly. Plus, the one renewed tax deduction that creates six-figure write-offs for investors, and what you can start doing right now to lower your taxes as much as possible starting in 2026.     In This Episode We Cover  How to reduce your taxable rental income by 20% instantly (many investors miss this)  The biggest (six-figure) write-off that was renewed in the One Big Beautiful Bill   Commonly missed real estate tax deductions that every investor can write off   Are opportunity zones back?

Everyone has the debate completely wrong, and it’s costing Americans their financial freedom.    “Live in Los Angeles? Guess you have to rent. Live in the Midwest? Guess you should buy.”    What if there was a way to grow your wealth no matter where you live, how much home prices are, or what’s going on in the housing market? What if you could get richer while renting? What if your simple, affordable house could propel you toward financial freedom? What if you could make hundreds of thousands of dollars, tax-free, by buying the home everyone overlooks?    Today, we’re showing you how to do all of them. We’ll give you three scenarios to buy, rent, or do a combination of both, and get wealthier in the process. Plus, Dave shares his “cheat code” investment strategy that gets him cheaper homes that he’ll love living in and makes him substantially wealthier in the process.    It’s not buy vs. rent.

Everyone has the debate completely wrong, and it’s costing Americans their financial freedom.    “Live in Los Angeles? Guess you have to rent. Live in the Midwest? Guess you should buy.”    What if there was a way to grow your wealth no matter where you live, how much home prices are, or what’s going on in the housing market? What if you could get richer while renting? What if your simple, affordable house could propel you toward financial freedom? What if you could make hundreds of thousands of dollars, tax-free, by buying the home everyone overlooks?    Today, we’re showing you how to do all of them. We’ll give you three scenarios to buy, rent, or do a combination of both, and get wealthier in the process. Plus, Dave shares his “cheat code” investment strategy that gets him cheaper homes that he’ll love living in and makes him substantially wealthier in the process.    It’s not buy vs. rent. It’s about building your wealth no matter your choice.     In This Episode We Cover  Renting vs. buying a house: The (not so obvious) answer nobody is talking about  How to turn your home into future cash flow and what to look at before you buy  The overlooked strategy Dave is using to make hundreds of thousands on his primary residence   Live in an expensive city?

First, we’re talking about a mortgage with 5% interest rates, 0% down, and no closing costs. There’s a catch—but we think it’s well worth it.    Next, a no-money-down loan that 97% of America will qualify for—there’s a good chance your next home will qualify for it, too. Then, a sneaky way to get around the bank and get a lower interest rate, down payment, or both. Want a 3% mortgage rate like back in 2020? There’s only one way to get it.

Today’s guest went from corporate life to early retirement, generating over $100,000 per year in cash flow thanks to a small, powerful rental property portfolio.

Vicente Garcia wanted to build a college fund for his children. When he moved to a new home, he realized he had an income-producing asset right in front of him. So, he turned his old primary residence into a rental, recognized its potential, and a few years later bought his first full-fledged investment property.     By combining savings from his job, recycling his properties’ cash flow, and using 401(k) loans (an incredibly underrated tool), Vicente grew to eight rental properties.

For years, you’d hear things like “$200 per month per door” or “it has to hit the 1% rule”. But with so many of these rules outdated, we need a 2026 refresh on real estate cash flow. In today’s housing market, what is good cash flow for a rental property?     This is how much your rental properties should cash flow each month to help you reach financial freedom.     We’ll show you exactly how to calculate cash flow, the cash flow goal Dave personally sets for his portfolio, and when a property doesn’t need to cash flow based on other crucial factors. Plus, how to create your “worst case scenario” when analyzing a rental property, so even if everything goes wrong all at once, you’ll still be able to pay your mortgage, keep your rental going, and not lose sleep.    Is the cash flow you’re making enough, or are you falling behind? We’re sharing it all in this episode.     In This Episode We Cover  How much cash flow should you be making on a rental property (in 2026)?

For years, you’d hear things like “$200 per month per door” or “it has to hit the 1% rule”. But with so many of these rules outdated, we need a 2026 refresh on real estate cash flow. In today’s housing market, what is good cash flow for a rental property?     This is how much your rental properties should cash flow each month to help you reach financial freedom.     We’ll show you exactly how to calculate cash flow, the cash flow goal Dave personally sets for his portfolio, and when a property doesn’t need to cash flow based on other crucial factors. Plus, how to create your “worst case scenario” when analyzing a rental property, so even if everything goes wrong all at once, you’ll still be able to pay your mortgage, keep your rental going, and not lose sleep.    Is the cash flow you’re making enough, or are you falling behind? We’re sharing it all in this episode.     In This Episode We Cover  How much cash flow should you be making on a rental property (in 2026)?  How to calculate cash flow, cash-on-cash return, and other crucial money metrics   Why Dave doesn’t care (too much) about year one (or day one) cash flow   Breaking even on your rental?

Now, less than ten years later, he’s financially free with $8,000/month in passive income from rentals.    Neil started with almost no money, promising his wife he would keep their life savings untouched while investing. He picked up side gigs, drove for Uber for a year and a half, and saved anything he could to buy a rental. And once he got his first rent check, everything changed for Neil and his family.    Neil is now a millionaire in his 50s, thanks to “boring rentals,” all in affordable price ranges ($200K or under homes!). Once paid off, his rental portfolio will make him over $20,000 per month.

Homes are now sitting on the market for the longest time in a decade, with sellers accepting thousands less than their original list price. For those who have been waiting to buy their first or next investment property, this could be the sign that it’s time to get in the game. But, with mortgage rates (slowly) coming down, will this window of opportunity last months or mere weeks?    We’re back with our January 2026 housing market update! Dave is getting into it all—mortgage rates, inventory, demand, and why investors are becoming so bullish heading into this new year.    Think there’s a housing crash on the way? Dave does his favorite thing—looks at data instead of guessing—to show some clear signs that those hoping for a crash will (unfortunately for them) be waiting quite a while. Demand is growing (steadily), and hungry homebuyers are itching to get back into the market. How much time do we have before steady appreciation returns?    Stick around, we’re getting into it in this housing market update!

Homes are now sitting on the market for the longest time in a decade, with sellers accepting thousands less than their original list price. For those who have been waiting to buy their first or next investment property, this could be the sign that it’s time to get in the game. But, with mortgage rates (slowly) coming down, will this window of opportunity last months or mere weeks?    We’re back with our January 2026 housing market update! Dave is getting into it all—mortgage rates, inventory, demand, and why investors are becoming so bullish heading into this new year.    Think there’s a housing crash on the way? Dave does his favorite thing—looks at data instead of guessing—to show some clear signs that those hoping for a crash will (unfortunately for them) be waiting quite a while. Demand is growing (steadily), and hungry homebuyers are itching to get back into the market. How much time do we have before steady appreciation returns?    Stick around, we’re getting into it in this housing market update!

Dion McNeeley did it and has inspired thousands of others to repeat his “boring” and self-proclaimed “lazy” strategy to reach financial freedom. Today, he’s teaching you how to do it, too.    A 40-year-old single dad with less than $1,000 in the bank and over $80,000 in debt is not who you’d think would become a multi-millionaire rental investor. But now, over a decade later, joining us from Thailand and making over $200,000 per year in cash flow, is the same man—Dion McNeeley! His tried-and-true strategy for rental investing is one anyone can replicate, and if you put in five years of hard work and another five years of patience, you, too, can be living your dream life, just like Dion.    Dion is walking through his exact rental property criteria and what he plans to buy in 2026.

It’s a new year, and markets have already shifted, changing where the best buying opportunities are. So today, Ashley Kehr (from the Real Estate Rookie podcast), Henry, and Dave are back to share their updated 2026 best places to buy rental property list!     These markets span multiple states, but many have affordable home prices (some even below $200K!). But of these top markets, which one would we make the biggest bet on?    These markets fly under the radar—we’re not talking about big cities like Miami, Austin, Chicago, or Denver. Many of these may be real estate markets you’ve only heard of once or twice, but once you hear the numbers, you might take a deeper look. If you want cash-flowing cities with landlord-friendly laws, we have them. If you want appreciation potential in affordable pockets of the country, we’ve got that, too. And, if you want to buy a rental in the birthplace of Mountain Dew, you’re in luck.    Each of these cities is broken down into metrics that matter most to investors: average home price, rent price, rent-to-price ratio, population growth, job growth, and more.

It’s a new year, and markets have already shifted, changing where the best buying opportunities are. So today, Ashley Kehr (from the Real Estate Rookie podcast), Henry, and Dave are back to share their updated 2026 best places to buy rental property list!     These markets span multiple states, but many have affordable home prices (some even below $200K!). But of these top markets, which one would we make the biggest bet on?    These markets fly under the radar—we’re not talking about big cities like Miami, Austin, Chicago, or Denver. Many of these may be real estate markets you’ve only heard of once or twice, but once you hear the numbers, you might take a deeper look. If you want cash-flowing cities with landlord-friendly laws, we have them. If you want appreciation potential in affordable pockets of the country, we’ve got that, too. And, if you want to buy a rental in the birthplace of Mountain Dew, you’re in luck.    Each of these cities is broken down into metrics that matter most to investors: average home price, rent price, rent-to-price ratio, population growth, job growth, and more. These aren’t just “cheap” markets with low home prices, but “sleeper” cities that only the savviest investors know about.    In This Episode We Cover  A cash-flowing college town with home prices that are below $200K  The hurricane-safe southern city that is growing at lightning speed   An affordable “sleeper” market between two very unaffordable cities  Small multifamilies and Mountain Dew: this market has plenty of both   You can buy a home for around $160,000 in this Midwest market with a (surprisingly) large population   And So Much More!

You don’t need experience, a big bank account, or a complicated spreadsheet. Anyone can follow these seven steps to acquire (at least) one rental property by the end of 2026.    Real estate investments are one of the best ways to grow wealth, reach financial freedom, and retire early. But you need to start with your first rental property to get to your end goal. We know how to do it because both Dave and Henry went from zero rentals (and almost no money) to financially independent investors.     It took Dave 15 years, but Henry only 7. And you might be able to do it faster.    We’ll start by helping you define your goal: how much passive income do you want and by when? Then, how to pick the right strategy, market, and property to fit that goal. We’ll share key rules of thumb to help you analyze (calculate the profit of) your first rental and understand what a “good deal” really looks like.

Today, Chad Carson (Coach Carson) will prove it, explaining how to retire with the fewest rentals possible.  Trust him, because he’s already done it with fewer rentals than you’d think.  Chad ditched the “buy 100 doors” mentality in exchange for fewer rentals, fewer headaches, and way more cash flow. Now, in his 40s and years into his lifestyle of two-hour workweeks, Chad has more than enough passive income to provide for his family, go on long (often up to a year at a time) international trips with his wife and children, and grow the wealth that will sustain him through traditional retirement age.  Thousands have copied his “small and mighty” approach, as Chad’s name has become synonymous with “make more doing less.”  Today, Chad is showing you how to do it in 2026, even if you only have five hours a week to dedicate to investing, even with today’s home prices and mortgage rates, and even if you’re starting with zero experience. Plus, the best properties for beginners and experienced investors, the exact deals he’s purchasing in 2026, and why now may be the best buying opportunity in years.    In This Episode We Cover:  How to retire early with the fewest rentals possible in 2026  The best real estate investing strategy for a beginner with limited free time  Why Chad believes there is more “opportunity” for investing in 2026 than in previous years  Put more money down?

From home price to mortgage rate predictions, “kidfluence” steering decisions, and the rise of the lifestyle renter, I’m going through all 10 of Zillow’s predictions and sharing which I agree with, which I’m confused by, and which made me laugh. Even with a few very interesting predictions, I do think some core forecasts will actually play out in 2026.    When’s the last time you asked your kid, “Hey buddy, where do YOU want to live?” and rented based on their answer? Well, Zillow believes that your toddler does have a serious influence on your next home. But that’s not all. In 2026, renting could become cool again as more “lifestyle renters” plan NOT to buy, even if mortgage rates drop. This could be a good sign for investors looking to keep long-term tenants, but you’ll need the right type of property.    We’ll also touch on Zillow’s home price prediction (and why they’re more positive than Dave), the floor for mortgage rates in 2026 (will we break into the 5s?), and why buying a new-build could get even better.    In This Episode We Cover  Zillow’s 2026 housing market predictions (prices, rates, rents, and more!)  Why housing demand could bounce back (but by how much?)  The “kidfluence” and why your seven-year-old really calls the shots when house hunting   One prediction that Dave audibly started laughing at (does anyone believe this?)

From home price to mortgage rate predictions, “kidfluence” steering decisions, and the rise of the lifestyle renter, I’m going through all 10 of Zillow’s predictions and sharing which I agree with, which I’m confused by, and which made me laugh. Even with a few very interesting predictions, I do think some core forecasts will actually play out in 2026.    When’s the last time you asked your kid, “Hey buddy, where do YOU want to live?” and rented based on their answer? Well, Zillow believes that your toddler does have a serious influence on your next home. But that’s not all. In 2026, renting could become cool again as more “lifestyle renters” plan NOT to buy, even if mortgage rates drop. This could be a good sign for investors looking to keep long-term tenants, but you’ll need the right type of property.    We’ll also touch on Zillow’s home price prediction (and why they’re more positive than Dave), the floor for mortgage rates in 2026 (will we break into the 5s?), and why buying a new-build could get even better.    In This Episode We Cover  Zillow’s 2026 housing market predictions (prices, rates, rents, and more!)  Why housing demand could bounce back (but by how much?)  The “kidfluence” and why your seven-year-old really calls the shots when house hunting   One prediction that Dave audibly started laughing at (does anyone believe this?)

And if you can still read this sentence without seeing double, you’ve made it!     But this year, things are going to be a little… different. We usually talk about the best places or strategies for buying rentals, but we’re going on a bit of a detour to start the year by discussing our real estate resolutions, all of which will actively help us retire early. Want to retire with rentals, too? This is the episode for you, and we’re sharing the strategies we’re using in 2026 to get there.     Kathy Fettke shares a new way she’s optimizing her real estate portfolio, with the goal to increase cash flow by 10% on her current portfolio (not buying more rentals!). Henry takes an opposite approach to most investors, opting not to scale his portfolio and instead doing something much safer. Dave details his “End Game”—the ultimate real estate portfolio for early retirement.     You can copy these experts’ strategies in 2026 to retire with rentals, too!    In This Episode We Cover  How to use AI to optimize your portfolio and find the cash flow blind spots where you’re losing potential profits   Stop scaling? Why Henry is making moves to pay off some rentals instead (and whether you should, too)  Building your “End Game” portfolio to retire with rentals you actually enjoy owning   The three “buckets” of investing and a sign you’ve already outgrown yours (it could cost you)  Henry and Dave’s real goal that has nothing to do with real estate (can you help them out?)

And if you can still read this sentence without seeing double, you’ve made it!     But this year, things are going to be a little… different. We usually talk about the best places or strategies for buying rentals, but we’re going on a bit of a detour to start the year by discussing our real estate resolutions, all of which will actively help us retire early. Want to retire with rentals, too? This is the episode for you, and we’re sharing the strategies we’re using in 2026 to get there.     Kathy Fettke shares a new way she’s optimizing her real estate portfolio, with the goal to increase cash flow by 10% on her current portfolio (not buying more rentals!). Henry takes an opposite approach to most investors, opting not to scale his portfolio and instead doing something much safer. Dave details his “End Game”—the ultimate real estate portfolio for early retirement.     You can copy these experts’ strategies in 2026 to retire with rentals, too!    In This Episode We Cover  How to use AI to optimize your portfolio and find the cash flow blind spots where you’re losing potential profits   Stop scaling? Why Henry is making moves to pay off some rentals instead (and whether you should, too)  Building your “End Game” portfolio to retire with rentals you actually enjoy owning   The three “buckets” of investing and a sign you’ve already outgrown yours (it could cost you)  Henry and Dave’s real goal that has nothing to do with real estate (can you help them out?)

Everyone thinks it’s impossible to find cash-flowing rental properties in today’s housing market, but this is NOT the truth. We’re going to show you three real rental property deals we’re buying.

He also looks at markets that may be “oversold” despite strong fundamentals, the places where buyers suddenly have serious leverage, and how rents are diverging sharply from home prices in some metros.

He also looks at markets that may be “oversold” despite strong fundamentals, the places where buyers suddenly have serious leverage, and how rents are diverging sharply from home prices in some metros. We’ll even take a look at the data to see where corrections may continue.    So, where should you buy? If you want killer deals, are these “oversold” markets prime places for rental property investing, or could they fall even further?      In This Episode We Cover  Zillow’s newest list of best and worst housing markets of 2026   Where buyers have strong leverage and where demand still holds  Markets that have strong fundamentals but major concerns from buyers   What rising or falling rents actually signal for investors  Will hot, affordable markets keep their flame burning or freeze like the rest of the US?   And So Much More!

Throughout 2025, three days a week, we’ve interviewed some of the best and brightest real estate investors in the country.

Today, we’ve compiled some of the most valuable advice we’ve received in 2025 into a holiday gift for you.     We’ll talk about the real financial freedom you receive as a real estate investor, how just one rental property (not dozens) can be enough to change your life, why the most successful investors tell everyone that they invest in real estate—and how it pays off, a new BRRRR strategy, and the best rental renovations with significant returns.

You told them you’re interested in investing, but they’re leaving your texts on “read.” This happened a lot to Dave and Henry until they started saying the right thing to agents.

Through a combination of affordable markets, “reverse BRRRRs,” and beginner-friendly renovations, Ben Vidovich has built financial freedom that middle-class America rarely achieves.     With his first child on the way, Ben knew he needed something more than the retirement account he was throwing his money into.

Dreaming about it. Talking to your spouse, friends, and family about it. Take our advice: don’t do it…yet.    Obviously, we’re talking about the one thing every real estate investor is after: quitting your job. It’s the goal of every rental property owner to have enough real estate cash flow to pay for your life, tell your boss it’s over, and walk out the door, fading away into the sunset.    But quitting your job for rentals could add years to your financial freedom timeline, limit your ability to scale your real estate portfolio, and force you back into the job market when things get tough. Today, we brought on someone who’s proof that keeping your job makes you richer (quicker) in real estate.    Paul Novak has worked full-time for 20 years. At record speed, he acquired eight rentals in just five years. And guess what? In five more years, he could be financially independent and retire early, IF he keeps his job and invests. The best part? Paul has unlocked secret, low-interest loans that W-2 workers have easy access to but rarely know about, helping him supercharge his rental portfolio.     If you really want to quit, do it. But if you actually want to get wealthy with real estate, listen to this episode.     In This Episode We Cover  How Paul scaled to eight rental units while working a full-time schedule   The secret loan to fund your real estate deals that W-2 workers have easy access to   Why you’ll retire much sooner if you keep your W-2 job vs. quitting   Should you work in the real estate industry if you don’t like your job?  The benefits of going full-time into real estate (only quit if these are worth it)  And So Much More!

Dreaming about it. Talking to your spouse, friends, and family about it. Take our advice: don’t do it…yet.    Obviously, we’re talking about the one thing every real estate investor is after: quitting your job. It’s the goal of every rental property owner to have enough real estate cash flow to pay for your life, tell your boss it’s over, and walk out the door, fading away into the sunset.    But quitting your job for rentals could add years to your financial freedom timeline, limit your ability to scale your real estate portfolio, and force you back into the job market when things get tough. Today, we brought on someone who’s proof that keeping your job makes you richer (quicker) in real estate.    Paul Novak has worked full-time for 20 years. At record speed, he acquired eight rentals in just five years. And guess what? In five more years, he could be financially independent and retire early, IF he keeps his job and invests. The best part? Paul has unlocked secret, low-interest loans that W-2 workers have easy access to but rarely know about, helping him supercharge his rental portfolio.     If you really want to quit, do it. But if you actually want to get wealthy with real estate, listen to this episode.     In This Episode We Cover  How Paul scaled to eight rental units while working a full-time schedule   The secret loan to fund your real estate deals that W-2 workers have easy access to   Why you’ll retire much sooner if you keep your W-2 job vs. quitting   Should you work in the real estate industry if you don’t like your job?  The benefits of going full-time into real estate (only quit if these are worth it)  And So Much More!

The 2026 housing market could be another year of a correction, but how low could we go?    Last week, we gave our mortgage rate predictions for 2026; this week, we’re focusing on home price forecasts. The housing market is stuck, and something needs to give.

And while Dave shares his “most likely” scenario for home prices, two other scenarios (“upside” and “downside”) aren’t worth ruling out just yet.

When do you (realistically) want to retire? How much real estate will it take to get there? And which strategy will actually get you to the finish line?    If you can’t answer all four of those questions, you’re like 99% of real estate investors—buying properties just to “build wealth.” While “building wealth” is worth striving for, it’s not actually a true goal. It's what keeps investors working longer, unsure of when or if they’ve “made it” or how much farther they have to go.    If you do one thing before 2026, do this: define your financial goals. Today, Dave shows you exactly how to do that. You’ll learn the formula to calculate your financial freedom number, how much real estate you’ll need, how long it will take, the one- and three-year goals you should set now, and the best real estate strategies for your situation.    You could be retired in under 10 years if you start in 2026. What are you waiting for?

This investor built the perfect rental property portfolio from duplexes and triplexes—small multifamily properties that any new investor can buy. Instead of taking his energy and buying larger properties, he reinvested in the ones he had, which made him even more money, allowing him to scale faster.     Matt (the Lumberjack Landlord) and his wife have self-managed over 100 rental units, meaning all that cash flow goes to them. Using his “acquire, stabilize, optimize” formula, Matt’s rentals make hundreds more in cash flow per unit than other properties. This has allowed him to retire in his 40s, all while supporting his family of six.    Today, he’s showing you how you can make the most from your rental properties, too. Simple utility changes, smart renovations for higher rents, cheap (and efficient) upgrades, and more can put hundreds of dollars back in your pocket every month. Plus, he shares how to keep your best tenants, even during tough economic times. If Matt could do it all while working 60+ hour weeks, why can’t you?

It’s allowed him to become such an investing expert that he’s constantly being asked for his opinion on the BiggerPockets forums, and he provides some of the most well-thought-out investing advice on the internet. So why does he have just one rental property, and why doesn’t he grow using his expertise? The answer isn’t that obvious.    You wouldn’t know it, but Mike is permanently disabled. After overworking so hard that he ended up losing his vision, he was placed on disability for the rest of his working career. This high achiever was forced to slow down and find something else that could replace his day job. Shortly after his diagnosis, he found BiggerPockets and turned a family vacation home into a short-term rental.    Now, he’s got systems and processes that help him self-manage with very few headaches, and he will probably keep this property as his one and only rental for life. Why didn’t he “FOMO” in when everyone was gobbling up real estate in 2020? Why didn’t he grow his portfolio to become the next tycoon? Mike has some clear answers for why he did what he did, and after listening to him, you might change what you want, too.  In This Episode We Cover:  Why you DON’T need a large real estate portfolio to find financial success when investing  Why Mike tells beginner investors that they should NOT buy a short-term rental property  The systems and processes Mike made to automate his vacation rental self-management (so he works less!)

It’s allowed him to become such an investing expert that he’s constantly being asked for his opinion on the BiggerPockets forums, and he provides some of the most well-thought-out investing advice on the internet. So why does he have just one rental property, and why doesn’t he grow using his expertise? The answer isn’t that obvious.    You wouldn’t know it, but Mike is permanently disabled. After overworking so hard that he ended up losing his vision, he was placed on disability for the rest of his working career. This high achiever was forced to slow down and find something else that could replace his day job. Shortly after his diagnosis, he found BiggerPockets and turned a family vacation home into a short-term rental.    Now, he’s got systems and processes that help him self-manage with very few headaches, and he will probably keep this property as his one and only rental for life. Why didn’t he “FOMO” in when everyone was gobbling up real estate in 2020? Why didn’t he grow his portfolio to become the next tycoon? Mike has some clear answers for why he did what he did, and after listening to him, you might change what you want, too.  In This Episode We Cover:  Why you DON’T need a large real estate portfolio to find financial success when investing  Why Mike tells beginner investors that they should NOT buy a short-term rental property  The systems and processes Mike made to automate his vacation rental self-management (so he works less!)  One thing you should do NOW before you start investing in real estate (it’s free!)

We hear you, and today we’re giving you multiple strategies that work in high-priced markets.     We’re not only showing you which investments work, but sharing the cash flow “superchargers” that routinely make rental property investors even more money in markets that many assume won’t work.     We have different strategies for every investor: value-add, high-cash flow, low money down, and how to combine them to make the most money possible on your next investment.

In fact, it was worse—he had $120,000 in debt. He was sleeping at work and renting out his own rented apartment just to survive in America’s most expensive market—New York City.     Now, six years later, he has eight rental properties, is debt-free, and even owns Billy Joel’s former residence (yes, you read that right).    If you’re living in an expensive market and think it’s impossible to invest, Ben has the formula for you. He turned very little money into a one-bedroom apartment empire—buying whatever he could in New York City, knowing it would all be worth the sacrifice.

It’s also not going to boom soon. We’re not in 2008, and we’re also not in 2020. We’re in a strange gray area, a zone that most Americans have never experienced before.     We’re entering the “Great Stall.” And this could last for years.     All data points to a new kind of housing market forming. But why, and why now? Is there any chance of a housing crash or home price explosion like before? Yes, but Dave is going to break down the odds of each scenario, plus what to do in the most likely scenario, while home prices stagnate and mortgage rates stay relatively high.     If you want to take advantage of the “Great Stall,” so that when home prices do go back up you’ll profit, there are four things you need to do. We’ll break down each step so you can prepare and pounce on the investment property that makes your future self wealthy.    The “Great Stall” is here, and when it’s over, millions of Americans will wish they had bought.     In This Episode We Cover  Crash, boom, or plateau?

It’s also not going to boom soon. We’re not in 2008, and we’re also not in 2020. We’re in a strange gray area, a zone that most Americans have never experienced before.     We’re entering the “Great Stall.” And this could last for years.     All data points to a new kind of housing market forming. But why, and why now? Is there any chance of a housing crash or home price explosion like before? Yes, but Dave is going to break down the odds of each scenario, plus what to do in the most likely scenario, while home prices stagnate and mortgage rates stay relatively high.     If you want to take advantage of the “Great Stall,” so that when home prices do go back up you’ll profit, there are four things you need to do. We’ll break down each step so you can prepare and pounce on the investment property that makes your future self wealthy.    The “Great Stall” is here, and when it’s over, millions of Americans will wish they had bought.     In This Episode We Cover  Crash, boom, or plateau? The most likely scenario for home prices over the next few years  How to prepare for the “Great Stall” and take advantage of frozen home prices   The “upsides” you must look for that could explode your wealth when appreciation returns   Why you need to start going “risk-off” in your investing to protect your wealth   What will finally cause home prices to rebound and Americans to get back into the market   And So Much More!

Then you’ll need an easy way to get into the game: no huge fix and flips or pricey renovations, no 20-unit apartment buildings or hotels. If you’re starting now (or starting over), we have four real estate investing strategies that still work in 2025 (and most likely will in 2026) for beginner-friendly budgets and solid returns.    Tony Robinson, host of the Real Estate Rookie podcast, has heard from hundreds of beginner investors and helped many of them grow and scale.

Don’t make it so hard!    Tony is sharing four beginner strategies that rookies can use to start investing. From low-money-down homes that make average Americans millionaires, to the big cash flow (with small properties) strategy that could replace your job, and even a 100% passive investment many rookies don’t think they qualify for.     This could be the day your financial future changes forever.

She was burnt out, in physical pain every day, and tired of working so hard. What could get her to the semi-retired lifestyle she wanted faster? Rental properties, of course.

Jessie was hooked on real estate from the start, buying rentals while she was renting herself. But after three property purchases, she was strapped for cash—but she didn’t give up. By creating an ingenious partner-finding system, she found her money partner and bought a rental that changed her life (and made them $1,000,000 in the process).

You see so many “no money down” investing strategies, but how do you know you won’t get burned trying them out? If you want to learn how to invest in real estate with no money, the right way, you need to take tips from those who have done it successfully without overleveraging themselves. Today, we’ve got two experts who bought rentals with very little savings and did it the legitimate way.    Deandra McDonald went from $5,000 in credit card debt and a $28,000 salary to financial freedom with rentals in just a decade. Dave Meyer (your host!) was waiting tables when he bought his first rental. Both did it without sketchy loans, running up credit card debt, or getting in over their heads—and they started with barely any money.    In this episode, we’ll walk through the steps you need to take and strategies you must try to buy real estate with no money. We’ll talk about how to fix your credit and become lendable, improve your income so you have cash reserves, down payment assistance programs that can get you into your first property for under $1,000, and the minimum amount you’ll need to invest safely.    No money? No problem. This is the blueprint for buying rentals with little to no money!     In This Episode We Cover  How to invest in real estate with no money and a lower income   Down payment assistance programs that can cover thousands in closing costs  The #1 best strategy for beginner real estate investors that requires the least amount of money   How to fix your money habits and build saving skills so you’re ready to buy rentals   Real estate partnership setups that give you equity in exchange for work   What to do when a bank won’t approve your mortgage application   And So Much More!

If you invest in real estate, what do you hope for? Opportunities to buy low, sell high, and cash flow in the middle. That’s exactly what’s happening in 2025—and it’s these “riskier” times that have made millions of real estate investors wealthy in the past.    But if you don’t know the risks, you could get hurt. Today, we’re explaining the biggest risks to real estate investing in 2025, how to mitigate all of them, and how to use them to your advantage, so in five years, everyone will wish they did what you did.    This is a “risk-off” time in the market, meaning big, risky swings on problem properties have even greater downsides. That’s why we’re sharing what our “perfect” property criteria is for a housing market like this one. These homes are easier to find, rent, sell (if need be), and can be purchased at sizable discounts. And if you think just sitting on the sidelines is keeping you safe, think again.

If you invest in real estate, what do you hope for? Opportunities to buy low, sell high, and cash flow in the middle. That’s exactly what’s happening in 2025—and it’s these “riskier” times that have made millions of real estate investors wealthy in the past.    But if you don’t know the risks, you could get hurt. Today, we’re explaining the biggest risks to real estate investing in 2025, how to mitigate all of them, and how to use them to your advantage, so in five years, everyone will wish they did what you did.    This is a “risk-off” time in the market, meaning big, risky swings on problem properties have even greater downsides. That’s why we’re sharing what our “perfect” property criteria is for a housing market like this one. These homes are easier to find, rent, sell (if need be), and can be purchased at sizable discounts. And if you think just sitting on the sidelines is keeping you safe, think again. We’re sharing another risk that could be even more threatening to your wealth.     In This Episode We Cover  The biggest risks of real estate investing in 2025 and how experts avoid them  The single greatest financial risk to all Americans right now (and why investors won’t get hit)  Our “perfect” property buy box for low-risk, higher-upside real estate investments   The properties you should avoid buying today (they’re far riskier than you think)  Dave’s three investing tips that will keep you afloat (and cash flowing) even during turbulent real estate markets   And So Much More!

You’re not! If you want to know how to invest in real estate while in college, or in your 20s, Daniel Kaplan has the blueprint. In three years, he went from having just $10,000 to his name to owning 99 rental units (and counting)!    As a college sophomore, Daniel bought a rental property for less than $50,000 (yes, really!). Then, he used the Section 8 investing strategy to mitigate his risk, earn consistent rent checks, and lock in over $600 in monthly cash flow. This first investment was a home run, but as you’re about to find out, it was just the first of many deals for Daniel. Today, he’s closing in on 100 total units!    Recently graduated, Daniel now uses wholesale real estate to help fund his investments and has a large real estate portfolio that spans three completely different markets—all because he took action with his limited money and resources. In this episode, you’ll learn how to do the same, no matter your age, experience, or season of life!    In This Episode We Cover  How to invest in real estate in your 20s (even as a college student)  How Daniel went from having $10,000 in savings to owning 99 units in just three years  Real estate side hustles you can use to fund your next investment  How to create consistent cash flow with the Section 8 investing model  Common home renovation mistakes that could cost you thousands  And So Much More!

Today, we’re grabbing questions directly from the BiggerPockets Forums and shooting them straight at two of the most trusted real estate investors in the industry.

Today, he’s generating $115,000/year in pure cash flow from his rentals, just five years after buying his first rental. In this episode, Joe shares exactly how he grew his six-figure passive income stream and the exact blueprint you can use to replicate it.    Joe invests in a market that real estate investors used to laugh at—Detroit. However, the tables are now turning, as Detroit continues to see solid appreciation, cash flow, and affordable prices. Joe buys houses for $100,000 (yes, even today), often using the “slow BRRRR strategy”, and rents them out for well above his costs. He says out-of-state investors can do this easily as well, and he has helped dozens repeat his system.     This could be your path to achieving financial freedom in under a decade, just like Joe!    In This Episode We Cover  The “bread and butter” rentals beginners can buy to build passive income streams  Why Joe says Detroit is such a solid real estate investing market (especially now)  Using the “slow BRRRR” method to build wealth faster and increase your equity   The best rental property types to target (for beginner investors, especially!)

We got into real estate investing to build wealth, not have the biggest portfolio possible. Financial freedom isn’t so freeing when you have a hundred rental units and hundreds of tenants calling. So, can you make more money with fewer rental units? Yes, and today, we’re giving you five ways to do it.    Each of these tips will help you increase your cash flow without having to put a down payment on another property. You can raise the value of each rental unit (growing your net worth) and boost rents by hundreds of dollars a month (more cash flow, same property). We’re discussing the amenities that renters will pay more for, the “convenience” factors you can charge for, and the strategies that generate more revenue than long-term rentals.    You don’t need a huge real estate portfolio to achieve financial freedom, but you do need an efficient one. Follow any of these five tips, and you could make more with less, reaching your ultimate cash flow goal faster.      In This Episode We Cover  How to increase the “perceived” value of your rental property with inexpensive upgrades   The amenities that renters will gladly pay more for (and aren’t difficult to add)  The “capacity” renovations Henry uses to increase his cash flow by thousands per year   When to switch from a long-term rental to a higher-revenue short or medium-term rental   The “convenience” amenities that take spare space and turn it into extra income   And So Much More!

Now, seven years later, he’s got 20 rental units, left his full-time position at work, and is making a life-changing amount of rental income.

You no longer need to live with roommates, share spaces with tenants, and give up your home to offset your mortgage. Instead, thanks to some new methods, you may not even need to live with or next to a tenant at all. These “house hacking” methods still make you rich, still save you tons of money, and work in 2025. In fact, they’re so good, Dave and Henry are doing them right now, even in their 30s and 40s, even with spouses and kids!    So what is house hacking? House hacking is when you rent out a portion of the space in or on your property to offset your mortgage cost. This could be renting out one unit in a duplex while you live in the other, or renting out a bedroom in a single-family home. While those are the more “traditional” ways to house hack, there are new tactics that still make you money every month without giving up your personal space. We’re talking about renting out garages, extra land, swimming pools, and more.    Plus, new house hacking loans allow you to put even less money down on your next property so that you can get in with little money down, have other people pay most of your mortgage, and use the savings to build your passive income streams faster. It’s made us wealthy, and thousands of other investors, too. So, when are you going to start house hacking?    In This Episode We Cover  Why house hacking is the easiest way to get started in real estate in 2025  How to house hack without having roommates (multiple methods)  New 5% down loans you can use for single-family AND multifamily rentals  Alternatives to renting rooms/units (renting swimming pools, garage space, office space, land, etc.)  Why Fall 2025 may be an even easier time to get your first house hack (buyers in control!)  Henry’s new home that he’s personally designed for house hacking (you’ll want to live there)  And So Much More!

Stick around, we’ve got your housing market update without the hype.     In This Episode We Cover  The “mild” housing market correction: what it means and whether it’ll become a crash   Updated home price predictions and how much prices will rise/fall by the end of the year   Signs that you can start confidently bidding under asking price (but by how much?)  Why inventory is beginning to reverse (have sellers finally had enough?)  Mortgage delinquencies are rising: who’s affected and could it lead to foreclosures?  What investors should do now to prepare to buy discounted deals (be patient!)   And So Much More!

These unassuming properties are in the perfect “sweet spot” for scaling a real estate portfolio, helping you reach financial independence faster with more passive income than regular, single-family rentals, but with even fewer expenses.     Today, we’re giving you the five steps to buy your first small multifamily and why 2025 may be the best time to get in the game.    Dave, your host, is financially free right now primarily because of small multifamily rentals. His first rental was a small multifamily, he house-hacked a small multifamily, and over a decade later, this remains his favorite real estate investment—for good reason. Small multifamily properties bring in more rent but leave you with only one roof, one furnace, and one foundation to worry about. You can use the best, lowest down payment debt to get one, and just a few of these properties could make you financially free.    So, how do you buy your first multifamily property? We’ll break down the five beginner-friendly steps to get there, from picking a market to finding deals, getting a loan, analyzing for cash flow, and closing and managing. This is the small multifamily blueprint that works in 2025 (we’re currently using it to invest!).     In This Episode We Cover  Why small multifamily rentals are in the perfect investing “sweet spot” for 2025   The five simple steps you can take this year to buy a small multifamily rental   Why smaller multifamily rentals often outperform larger ones  How to get into your first small multifamily for just 3.5% down   The best real estate markets for small multifamily investing in 2025   And So Much More!

She was a single mother with two children, earning just $20,000 per year working as a waitress, living in Detroit, one of the hardest-hit markets following the Great Financial Crisis.     Sixteen years later, she’s making $50,000 per month in pure cash flow (and she has the receipts to prove it)!    In Detroit, foreclosures were running rampant, houses were being repossessed left and right, but what could she do with almost no disposable income? Thanks to a $6,000 tax refund check, Ashley did what everyone told her not to do—buy a house during the crash. Fortune favors the bold, and Ashley was soon making $7,000 per year in cash flow from a single property. It was time to repeat the system and buy more rentals. With each tax refund, a new property was acquired, and get this—without using a mortgage.    Ashley scaled fast thanks to her super-saver mentality, and now makes more passive income in one month than many people do in a year.

If you buy now and prices rise, you’ll get all the appreciation that comes with it and have the chance to refinance at any point in the future.

We’re answering this question, and more, on this Q&amp;A episode where we field actual investor dilemmas and share what we’d do in these situations. First, the classic buy now or wait debate. Mortgage rates are falling, and so are prices in many areas, and if you’ve got just enough money to buy your first rental, is now the time to do it? Or, do you wait and save, bringing even more money to the table?    Should you renovate a house as a first-time real estate investor? If done right, the benefits could be massive, but veteran house flipper James Dainard says there’s only so far into a renovation you should go as a beginner. Plus, do you want 100% financing as a new investor with no experience? We’ve got some interesting news for you! Finally, the one flipping metric to rule them all—what James uses on every flip to see if it’s worth it.     See Dave and James live at BPCON2025. Limited tickets are still available!    In This Episode We Cover  Whether to buy a rental property now or wait until you have more saved up (is it worth it?)  Should you buy a move-in-ready rental property or renovate as a beginner?

She had to start over and rebuild any wealth she had acquired, all while being a single mom to her one-year-old. Now, just five years later, she has 17 rental properties and is on track to retire early as a multimillionaire over a decade before traditional retirement age. She did it all with very little money and creatively found ways to invest without having a huge bank account.     And she’s done it all while working full-time.    After building up a small rental portfolio with her now ex-husband, Sarah already had some of the skillset to invest in real estate. The problem? Those properties were sold to pay for divorce fees, leaving her with little money, but a basic plan. Her next step? Find a duplex, renovate it to increase the equity, rent out one side, and live in the other, and…repeat. She did a house hack BRRRR (buy, rehab, rent, refinance, repeat)!     With proof of concept, Sarah went on to repeat this renovation and refinance process, allowing her to scale, with little money, into a sizable rental property portfolio that will pay for her early retirement. Now, she’s got a plan to retire with $6M (yes, you read that right) in assets, and is giving you the framework she’s using to get there so that you can repeat it!    In This Episode We Cover  How to build a rental property portfolio with little money but a need for financial freedom  The best first investment property to start building wealth with (you can do it with kids!)  Why you do not need to use your own money to invest in real estate (private money 101)  Better than long-term rentals?

Maybe you’ve gone too far into one strategy, like owning eight short-term rentals. Or you’re seeing new build-to-rent properties with low prices, low maintenance, and low interest rates, and thinking “hmm…that seems like a good deal.” How do you know when to stay on course with your original plan or pivot to something greater? Which will get you financial freedom faster (and safer)?    This is a dilemma that you’re probably facing, and if you aren’t right now, you will. Garrett Brown is facing this conundrum head-on. He’s spent years building a real estate portfolio, but he’s deep in the vacation rental realm. He wants a safer, more passive, less time-intensive way to diversify his portfolio, so what should he do?    He’s got three options: buy a small multifamily rental, buy another short-term rental in a different part of town, or take advantage of new-build properties with price cuts and significant builder concessions. These are options that are probably open to you right now, and we’re about to show you which makes the most money, which has the least stress, and which is the best for real estate diversification.     In This Episode We Cover  Build-to-rent vs. multifamily vs. Airbnb: Which is the best bet in 2025?  When to pivot strategies and do something new to diversify your real estate portfolio  Red flags when buying a long or short-term rental that could hurt your cash flow  Are the high returns of Airbnb worth the added stress/time to manage?   The unbeatable benefit of new-build rental properties in 2025    And So Much More!

Why Pratik is pausing on rental properties for a different strategy   Want more off-market deals? Why you need to go to meetups and connect with investors on the BiggerPockets forums!   And So Much More!

The best markets to buy rental properties are often overlooked, affordable cities with strong rents, reasonable home prices, and robust job growth. These markets could not only appreciate steadily, giving you the long-term wealth you’re looking for, but also pocket you some decent cash flow, so you have more passive income to grow your portfolio faster.     We’ve got nine expert-chosen markets lined up, and there’s probably more than one with precisely what you’re looking for!    These are NOT teeny tiny markets with $50,000 home prices in some town you’ve never heard of. These are real cities, with serious growth potential and millions (if not billions) of dollars being poured into them by local governments. Cities where jobs are growing, populations are rising, and rental demand is strong.     If you don’t know where to buy your first or next property, this is the episode to help you whittle down your list. By the time you’re done listening to this, you’ll have at least a few hot real estate markets to start analyzing!    In This Episode We Cover    The nine best (affordable) real estate markets that we would personally invest in  A booming group of “satellite” cities that are already growing very fast   The fastest-growing affordable city with a new $3B (yes, billion) investment  The Northeast’s sweet spot city with high rents and median home prices   One Midwest city investors LOVE to buy in…but is it still worth it?   And So Much More!

This is the goal of every real estate investor, and the goal Dave and Henry had when they bought their first rental properties.

We get the same questions all the time: Do I need an LLC for rental property investing? Should I start an LLC before buying my first rental? Where is the best state for a real estate LLC? We’re not lawyers, so we can’t advise on this, but we do know someone who can—Brian T. Bradley, nationally renowned asset protection lawyer.    Brian has heard all the “legal advice” from social media—an LLC makes you anonymous, an LLC helps you pay no taxes, and an LLC will completely hide your assets. If you’d prefer to 1. Keep your assets yours and 2. Not spend years in federal prison, this is the episode to watch. Just following any of the above (extremely incorrect) advice could not only risk your rentals, but also put you behind bars.     In today’s episode, Brian shares a masterclass on asset protection, from which legal entities you need (LLCs, trusts, partnerships), to the biggest myth about where to start an LLC, how much it costs to keep your asset protection strong, and whether you really should buy your first rental without an LLC. Don’t know what an LLC even is? You better, and after this episode, you’ll be a pro!    In This Episode We Cover  LLCs explained (limited liability companies) and how they protect your assets  The biggest myth about LLCs that will cost many investors in the long run   When to upgrade from an LLC to an asset protection trust (you may already be there)  How much an LLC costs to create, keep active, and where to start yours  Offshore trusts that are virtually untouchable by US courts   Own rentals?

We’re about to make it much easier. These are the two best investment properties to buy in 2025, whether you’re a beginner with little to no real estate investing experience or a veteran investor ready for something with a bit more meat on the bone. We’ll share exactly how much they cost, where to find them, and how much they could make.    Let’s start with the beginners/part-time real estate investors. If you’ve got limited time in the day to dedicate to real estate, we’ve got the property for you. Dave is investing in these types of properties right now, even with his packed schedule and full-time job. These rental properties give you long-term returns with the added upside of tens, if not hundreds, of thousands in equity growth.    Next, for those who are a bit more dedicated, Henry will share the investment property “formula” you can rinse and repeat to build your real estate wealth. This works even better in today’s buyer's market and, when done right, can replace a six-figure salary, if you’re willing to put in the work. These are the investment properties working in today’s market!    In This Episode We Cover  The “slow” BRRRR method that makes you equity rich without the stress of a quick renovation   How much money you’ll need to invest in either of these solid real estate deals   Where to find properties like this (cheaper than the average home price!)  How to replace a six-figure salary with Henry’s house flipping “formula”  Funding a home renovation when you don’t have the cash (best options)  And So Much More!

Want to know how to analyze a rental property like a pro? This is how. Expert investors don’t just crunch the numbers once and submit an offer or reject it—that’s an easy way to miss out on the best real estate deals. Instead, we’re showing you how we tweak specific numbers in your offer to make the deal as profitable as possible, while giving the seller many ways to say “yes.”    Today, our friend and fellow investor, Ashley Kehr from the Real Estate Rookie podcast, brought us a real deal she’s debating on buying. Here are the quick numbers: it’s a triplex (three units) being sold by a tired landlord. The price seems reasonable, but the expenses may be too high. We use the BiggerPockets Rental Property Calculator to run the numbers and see if it cash flows, then tweak the offer in multiple different ways to boost the returns substantially.    Now, Ashley is taking these offers to the seller. Yes, offers—plural—to see which one they’ll choose. Either way, Ashley is in a position to make more money from this rental than before, and all she had to do was get a little creative. Today, we’re showing you, too, how to make any real estate deal cash flow.    In This Episode We Cover  How to analyze a rental property from start to finish (and calculate an offer)  Seller financing vs. bank loans: how to give the seller the choice so you both benefit   Estimating rents and how to ensure that your units will bring in enough revenue   The numbers you can “manipulate” to make your rental cash flow more   The three final offers Ashley will be giving this seller, and why you should not submit just one   And So Much More!

It allowed investors to buy properties, fix them up fast, get their down payment money back, and recycle it. This created an “infinite” investing loop where someone with one down payment could turn it into five (or more) separate houses. But with high mortgage rates, the BRRRR method was thought to be over by many…until now.     We’re introducing a new BRRRR strategy. It’s safer, with less risk (and stress), makes you more cash flow than before, and keeps your leverage lower so you don’t go underwater in a housing correction. Does it work? Dave and Henry are both using this new BRRRR method right now—and doing quite well, we might add.     You (yes, you listening to this) can also use this new BRRRR method to buy houses, increase their value, get higher cash flow than regular rentals, and then recycle the money you put into the property to use toward your next investment. You can invest faster, but with lower risk than before, and scale your real estate portfolio the right way, so if interest rates rise, it might not even matter for your bottom line!    In This Episode We Cover  The new 2025 BRRRR method that’s safer, smarter, and produces more cash flow  One big problem with the “perfect BRRRR” and why you should (probably) stop chasing it  You don’t need to refinance: why a HELOC (home equity line of credit) may be better   Expert tips for doing your first BRRRR in 2025 with the least risk and the highest reward   The right amount of money to leave in your BRRRR property (how much equity to pull out after the renovation)   And So Much More!

This is how you do it.   You don’t need a six-figure salary to buy your first rental property and start building generational wealth and early retirement. Dave is a testament to this, buying his first rental with barely any money, zero experience, and working as a waiter. If you’ve got a stable salary and some savings, you’re already leagues ahead of him. Today, we’re showing you how to put that money to work.  We used median income and savings data to create a complete middle-class investor plan to get you on the fastest (and safest) path to financial freedom. We’ll walk through three investing strategies anyone in the middle class can use to buy their first rental, define how much money you’ll need saved, what to do if you don’t have enough in the bank, and how to repeat the system to finally retire early with real estate.   Stop waiting, start wealth-building. This is how to escape the “middle-class trap” and move up the rungs to financial freedom even if you’re starting with a $70,000/year salary!     In This Episode We Cover:  The three best real estate investments for a middle-class income earner  The “middle-class trap” that most Americans are stuck in (how to escape)  Pro tip: How to get more money for your first deal if you don’t have enough  How to retire in just a decade with rental property investing (even starting from scratch)  The one high-profit, low-money-down, tax-free strategy Dave is using right now!

It’s been a long time since we’ve seen real estate prices not appreciate year-over-year, but this reality is becoming increasingly likely every day. With low affordability, high mortgage rates, rising supply, and steady demand, the tables are starting to turn for one of the hottest asset classes of the past decade (real estate). The question is, should you buy fully knowing prices won’t rise anytime soon?    J Scott has been investing in real estate for decades. He’s been through the booms and the busts and has maintained a very even demeanor, even in the best and worst of times. So, we brought on a real estate veteran to answer a simple question: Is real estate still worth investing in with stagnant prices, and if so, how do you make appreciation when the market won’t give it to you?    J shares why home prices will likely stay flat or even dip for years to come, the strategies you can still use to raise your property values by sizable margins, two types of financing that work best for times like these (and benefit the investor), and when real estate could bounce back. Scared to invest when you don’t know where prices are going? Listen to J’s advice!

The housing market correction spreads to nearly 50% of the country. Sellers are giving up as new listings begin to retreat. Is this just a normal correction or the signs of a housing market crash?

Think again. Today’s guest built an 11-unit rental portfolio—starting in 2022, with high interest rates—and is cash flowing on each property. In fact, he’s making more cash flow than most investors we know, even with still sky-high rates. How’s he doing it with such little money down? No creative finance, no expert skills—Justin Albrecht is just following a simple, repeatable rental formula.     After moving back in with his mom, Justin was getting the itch to find his own place. The problem? This was 2022, where single-family homes for sale were rife with bidding wars. What about small multifamily properties, like a duplex, triplex, or quadplex? That seemed to be the sweet spot. With zero experience in property management or landlording, Justin took the plunge.    Fast forward three years, Justin now owns four properties totaling 11 rental units, and just quit his W2 job to focus his full-time efforts on his rentals. He did it all without putting a ton of money down and dealing with 7% interest rates on most of his properties. Still, he’s making sizable cash flow, impressive return on equity numbers, and living for free. Today, he’s breaking down his blueprint.    In This Episode We Cover  The small multifamily rentals that average investors can use to build massive wealth  How to unlock monthly cash flow even with interest rates at 7% (or higher!)  Getting into your first real estate deal with just 3.5% down   Does the 1% rule still exist in the 2020s? Yes! Here’s how Justin is finding these deals  “Turnkey” rentals that are move-in ready but still produce serious cash flow   And So Much More!

Still, he’s making sizable cash flow, impressive return on equity numbers, and living for free. Today, he’s breaking down his blueprint.    In This Episode We Cover  The small multifamily rentals that average investors can use to build massive wealth  How to unlock monthly cash flow even with interest rates at 7% (or higher!)  Getting into your first real estate deal with just 3.5% down   Does the 1% rule still exist in the 2020s? Yes! Here’s how Justin is finding these deals  “Turnkey” rentals that are move-in ready but still produce serious cash flow   And So Much More!

You don’t need to have any real estate investing experience to follow this blueprint, but if you’ve already started investing, you could (and probably will) get there faster. How much money do you need? How long will it take? Which properties should you invest in? We’re sharing the complete blueprint in this episode.    Financial freedom is the goal for almost every real estate investor; the way you get there is by having consistent cash flow that can pay for your life.

The data is clear—the buyer’s market is back. So, how do you ensure you’re getting the best price for you, without making a seller feel like they’re getting taken advantage of? This episode is all about how we negotiate the best real estate deals in 2025, using methods that everyday homebuyers are unaware of, and most investors never try. This is how to do real estate negotiation the right way.    Listen: you don’t need to be the highest offer to win the house. We’re showing you other “levers” you can pull besides the offer price that give the seller confidence in you as a buyer and get you under contract quicker. What if you’re doing off-market deals? You know, sending mailers, talking to sellers, walking homes. Henry breaks down the three offers he gives every seller (yes, three), and why this strategy is a winner.    Rather have a low interest rate than a slightly lower price? There’s one subset of sellers that’s basically begging buyers to take houses off their hands. The best part? They’ll actually pay to get you a lower mortgage rate.

It’s not a short-term rental, or a beachside Airbnb, or anything even close to that. Within a couple of years of starting to scale, James Davis has a rental portfolio on track to gross $1,000,000 per year in rents, from just six properties. The best part? He’s not even doing it for the money. His investments are making lives better while securing him financial freedom.    You may have heard of assisted living before, but probably not like this. While many assisted living facilities focus on older adults, James owns small assisted living properties that cater to individuals with disabilities. After taking on two traditional real estate deals, James’s brother, who worked in disability services, thought they could be treating residents better. So, they converted one of James’s properties into a compliant assisted living facility. They got their first monthly tenant—the rent: $15,000 per month for one bedroom.    Sounds steep, right? James walks through the entire expenses and profit margins to prove that the caregiving business may be worthwhile, even just for the emotional benefits. Now, he has six properties and has already pulled in $500,000 just halfway through the year. Follow the same steps James shares in this episode, and your portfolio could grow just as fast.    In This Episode We Cover  How James went from making $16/hour to bringing in $1,000,000/year in rents  How much assisted living investment properties make (cash flow!)  Locking down a 3.5% interest rate using the creative “subject to” strategy   The process of becoming legally compliant for running an assisted living property   Why James still buys long-term rentals instead of more assisted living properties   And So Much More!

If so, you’re already further ahead than Leka Devatha was a decade ago. She was not only an immigrant to the United States, but also had extremely basic financial knowledge, far from what a “real estate investor” should possess. However, even starting from zero, Leka was able to scale not only quickly but efficiently. A decade later, she’s one of the leading voices in real estate investing, with a financially freeing rental portfolio and fun projects that make her massive six-figure profits.    We’ll detail the different investing stages, from complete real estate rookie to expert investor, plus show you how to get the funding for your first or next deal, how to buy back your time, and make more money while having fewer properties (it’s very possible).    Unlock the hidden potential in every property with Leka’s guide to maximizing your real estate portfolio, Return on Real Estate!     In This Episode We Cover  The different “stages” every real estate investor goes through (and how to scale faster)  The easiest, FREE way to start real estate investing (Leka did this!)  Why you must (must!) buy an “easy” property for your first real estate deal   How to start scaling to multiple rentals, flips, and deals each year  Raising money from your network so you can grow even faster (and make others money!)  Buying back your time so you can actually enjoy your financial freedom  And So Much More!

Whether you love your job or hate it, having the option to retire early on a schedule you choose is something we are all working toward. Thankfully, you don’t need 100 properties to do it. Today’s guest did it with 15, slowly building a rental property portfolio and recycling his home equity so he could scale faster and reach financial freedom sooner.    Tony DeGiacomo lived with his parents for years while buying rentals. Every single dollar he made was designated for a new rental property. He knew his goal: long-term wealth through real estate, even if it took some time. Some twenty years later, he’s got 15 properties, 30 or so units, and could comfortably live off the cash flow of his first property purchases. How’d he scale his respectable portfolio? Using HELOCs (home equity lines of credit) to turn one rental into multiple.    Today, he talks about the even bigger deals he’s doing, how to make money before, during, and after a crash, and the reason he’s switched from buying to building properties for better returns. Tony can comfortably retire at 50, but will he when he’s having so much fun with real estate? No matter what he chooses, you can follow his “formula” to retire over a decade earlier.    In This Episode We Cover  How to retire 15 years earlier with a small (but scalable) rental portfolio   How to use HELOCs (home equity lines of credit) to invest in rentals faster   Why it’s crucial to have active income to buy real estate (DON’T quit your day job!)

This “Hack” Unlocks It</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/3-interest-rates-in-2025-this-hack-unlocks-it--75651862</link><description><![CDATA[Want a 3% interest rate? What about a lower purchase price? Maybe hundreds of thousands of dollars in tax-free income? These real estate “hacks” unlock all of these benefits—and they work especially well in 2025. We’re entering a new type of housing market: sellers have lost much of their control, inventory is high, affordable areas are seeing stronger demand, and real estate investors need to pivot ASAP.     So, how do you take advantage of today’s real estate market? Dave has five hacks he’s currently using to find real estate deals at better prices (and substantially lower interest rates) in 2025. You can use them to land better buys, too.    Our hacks include how to “steal” a 3% mortgage rate even in 2025, the “rental property” that isn’t really a rental (but has way better upsides), how to perform renovations with less stress and more flexibility, a location hack that will get you a lower price while still having big-city demand and more!    In This Episode We Cover  How to get a 3% interest rate even in 2025, even if you’ve been quoted much higher   The markets that have serious demand but much more affordable home prices   Why a traditional rental might not be your best bet in 2025  The “delayed BRRRR” strategy that makes you more with less renovation stress   How to “benchmark” rentals in your area so you know you’re getting a great deal   And So Much More      Check out more resources from this show on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠BiggerPockets.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.biggerpockets.com/blog/real-estate-1152  Interested in learning more about today’s sponsors or becoming a BiggerPockets partner yourself?

You could be a brand-new investor or someone returning after years since your last purchase. One thing is clear: 2025 has changed the housing market. We are not in the same scenario as we were in 2020, 2022, or even 2024. Investors have more negotiating power now, and if you’ve decided to get in the game, now is the time to pick up deals.

We mean truly passive—no tenant phone calls, no toilets, no evictions—just checks sent to your account. This is the dream of every real estate investor, and today’s guest, Chris Lopez, actually achieved it. He did what we preach on every single episode—bought single-family rentals and small multifamily buildings and ran them right—but at some point, he realized the cash flow was too low, and the headaches were too high. So he switched, finding a type of real estate that is truly passive.    At one point, Chris’s rental property portfolio was only making him a meager $20 per hour. Doesn’t sound like financial freedom, does it? He dipped his toe into passive investing, invested a little more, then a little more. Now, he’s heavily on the passive side.     Chris is on today to show you how to do the same. Got a lot of equity but low cash flow? Turn that rental into bigger, better, and more passive income. Tired of dealing with tenants but still want financial freedom? You can exchange your rentals for a passive income stream. We’re talking about debt funds, value-add syndications, and other passive investments that enable investors to earn more while doing less.    Join Chris’s 5-week cohort to learn how to transition from active landlord to passive investor (while multiplying your cash flow).    In This Episode We Cover  Real estate investments that make double-digit returns (without the work)  The one (easy) calculation every investor must perform annually   How to vet a passive investment (and the person running it) before you invest  Significant economic risks to be aware of before you start passive investing   Keep, refinance, or sell? How to know your rental is past its useful period   And So Much More!

How to know your rental is past its useful period   And So Much More!

New data suggests sellers are getting increasingly frustrated as their houses sit—and they’ve finally had enough. Buyers are ready to pounce on lower-priced homes, but can they actually afford them? If you’re investing in real estate, is now the best time in a long time to fight for a price cut or seller concession? We’re back with our monthly housing market update, sharing our supply, demand, and home price predictions.    Inventory is growing—fast. We’re up double-digit percentage points year-over-year. But buyers are starting to catch on, getting back into the market. So, if we’ve got supply and demand, why are home prices falling—and could they fall even more?

Today’s guest did it in even less time, scaling up to income-replacing cash flow in just a matter of years, even with a very demanding full-time job and constantly moving around the country. Through pure hustle, Taylor Wing is now financially independent in his late twenties with a sizable rental property portfolio that spits out cash flow to pay for his South Florida lifestyle. He’s got so many tricks to reach financial freedom faster, but his best piece of advice? The number of rentals you own doesn’t matter.    Taylor was a full-time military member, serving in the Army for the first five years of his career, bouncing between North Carolina, South Dakota, and beyond. Wherever he was stationed, he began buying houses as soon as possible. That meant Taylor spent almost every hour of the day working, either at his job or on his rental property portfolio, for years straight. Was it a grind? Yes. Was it worth it? 100%.    Now, fast forward seven years after graduating from West Point, and his family is financially free. He has his beautiful house on the water in Florida and is spending more time with his new (and growing!) family. Through “rebalancing” his rental portfolio, strategically using “reverse 1031 exchanges,” and other savvy strategies, Taylor is now in complete control of his time. He’s teaching you how to do the same today!    In This Episode We Cover  Why “unit count” doesn’t matter for financial freedom, but cash flow does   Buying rentals in multiple markets and how to maximize your profit with medium-term rentals   Why every real estate investor MUST review and “rebalance” their rental portfolio (or it’ll cost them)  How to do a “reverse 1031 exchange” and move your headache rentals into better cash-flowing real estate  The $140,000 properties Taylor is buying today that make $300-$400/month cash flow!

We have to admit it—real estate deals aren’t nearly as good as they were in the 2010s. But here’s the thing…we’re still buying real estate. Even with low affordability, high interest rates, and still high home prices, real estate still makes much more sense as an investment than your other options. We can prove it, and we’re doing it in today’s episode.     You know your crypto-buying uncle who’s always predicting a housing crash? Send him this episode. Dave presents the proof, backed by decades of data, showing that real estate remains one of the best risk-adjusted returns of any investment you can buy today.    And with sellers significantly outnumbering buyers and home prices starting to correct, this could be one of the best times to buy before demand boomerangs back and supply dwindles. Dave is buying right now, after reviewing all the data. So, if the numbers make sense for him, what’s holding you back?    In This Episode We Cover  Who cares about 2010s home prices?

No worries—long-distance real estate investing is the natural next step. We’ve done it before, many times, and made the beginner mistakes, so you don’t have to. Now, we’re gearing up to do it again. Dave and Henry are heading out on the “Cash Flow Road Show,” touring top Midwest markets, and maybe even making offers along the way.    These trips are crucial for finding deals and getting to know an area. We’re sharing the exact blueprint to follow before you make a long-distance investment. Who should you meet? How do you know a neighborhood is safe? What are the exact questions you should ask an agent?    We’re providing you with the complete list so your next long-distance or out-of-state investment is a success. Seriously, we’re giving you an actual list of things expert investors do before buying in any area. Don’t just show up and start touring houses—make your trip out to a new market worth the effort. Follow these exact steps before long-distance investing!     In This Episode We Cover  The two real estate professionals you must talk to when looking at new markets (it’s not just the agent)   The exact questions experts ask real estate agents about their market   Why you should look for smaller markets surrounding big cities (better prices and cash flow?)

No worries—long-distance real estate investing is the natural next step. We’ve done it before, many times, and made the beginner mistakes, so you don’t have to. Now, we’re gearing up to do it again. Dave and Henry are heading out on the “Cash Flow Road Show,” touring top Midwest markets, and maybe even making offers along the way.    These trips are crucial for finding deals and getting to know an area. We’re sharing the exact blueprint to follow before you make a long-distance investment. Who should you meet? How do you know a neighborhood is safe? What are the exact questions you should ask an agent?    We’re providing you with the complete list so your next long-distance or out-of-state investment is a success. Seriously, we’re giving you an actual list of things expert investors do before buying in any area. Don’t just show up and start touring houses—make your trip out to a new market worth the effort. Follow these exact steps before long-distance investing!     In This Episode We Cover  The two real estate professionals you must talk to when looking at new markets (it’s not just the agent)   The exact questions experts ask real estate agents about their market   Why you should look for smaller markets surrounding big cities (better prices and cash flow?)

He did it all starting in 2022 when interest rates were beginning to rise, the market was turning, and many investors decided to sit on their hands. Thanks to a strategy that allowed him to “recycle” his money, he went from one down payment to 16 rental units in record time. How’d he do it?    Only in his 20s, Ricardo Adames already knew he wanted out of his career. Working harder wasn’t paying him dividends, so he knew he needed an extra income source. Even after taking a “risk” on his first deal, he was able to walk away with a perfect rental property that only cost him (after all was said and done) $5,000. How’s that possible? Simple—the BRRRR method.     In this episode, Ricardo details this cash-recycling method investors can use TODAY to build a six-figure-producing real estate portfolio, even if you have little experience. Plus, Ricardo shares his exact “buy box”—the properties he’s targeting for more home-run real estate deals in 2025!    In This Episode We Cover  How to “recycle” your down payment money and scale way faster with the BRRRR method   Why buying below-market-value is the ultimate risk-mitigator in 2025   How Ricardo went from zero experience to doing eight real estate deals at once just three years later   Why high interest rates aren’t stopping you from investing in real estate   Making money even in a down market (Florida!) that most won’t invest in   And So Much More!

We have another option for funding your real estate investments: private money lending! If your DTI (debt-to-income) is too high, you’ve maxed out how many mortgages you can get, or you need quick cash to finance a renovation, house flip, or BRRRR (buy, rehab, rent, refinance, repeat), private money loans can float you. Today, we’re sharing how to find a private money lender, what interest rates they charge, who these loans are best suited for, and what documents to bring to get approved.    Dave is out on a search to find the perfect pickle for his sandwich, so we brought in a seasoned investor and trusted Real Estate Rookie host, Ashley Kehr. Today, she’s invited her private money lender, James Dainard, to the show to explain how private money works, how much money you’ll need to put down, rates and terms you can expect, and red flags a lender looks for.    But this isn’t just for borrowers. If you’ve got a serious sum of cash and want to lend to investors and pocket the interest payment, James will show you how. Plus, Ashley shares her exact private money lending structure that she worked out with James on a recent deal he lent to her.     No bank loan? No problem—here’s how private money works!

By cracking the real estate “formula,” Andre Taylor was able to buy larger properties faster. He used his financial independence number to work backward by picking up properties that would truly help him retire early. He’s still buying deals in 2025, and you can retire early, too, if you use his “formula.”    Andre started with just $3,000 in the bank. Not $30,000—$3,000. With a bit of sweat equity, he converted a foreclosure into a cash-flowing rental, generating a solid $300 in profit per month per unit. Then, everything clicked—what if he bought enough rentals to replace his income? After calculating his “freedom number,” he knew how many rentals he needed.     But then Andre…took a break. A long break. A decade of not investing. When he got back, it was time to go all out. In today’s episode, you’ll hear about the buying spree Andre’s been on over the past eight years, how he closed on over thirty rental units (some filled with black mold), and why “buying up the block” is the fastest way to reach financial freedom.     In This Episode We Cover  How many rentals you’ll need to retire early by calculating your “freedom number”  Buying foreclosures and the pros and cons of these cheaper deals   The many ways to finance a rental (mortgages, credit cards, 401(k) loans, etc.)  Why you should start contacting owners of properties next to your current rentals   How to make the passive income jump faster by buying commercial properties (five units or more!)   And So Much More!

We brought on an investor who has successfully timed the housing market (three times) to give his thoughts on whether we’re at the bottom or we have a long way to go. If you’ve been holding out for lower home prices and less competition, should you take the risk and wait, knowing a rebound could be on the way?    Through a combination of genius and a bit of luck, Brian Burke has sold, bought, and sold at the right times repeatedly. He exited the majority of his real estate portfolio in the early 2020s as prices hit all-time highs and competition was fierce. For the last three and a half years, he hadn’t bought anything, up until very recently. Is this a signal that now is the time to buy?    Today, we’re asking Brian whether 2025 is the right time to buy (and for which assets), how to get in “position” to make a profit as home prices decline, the sellers most likely to give you concessions and further price cuts, and signs YOU should sell your headache rental and trade it for something better. The second half of 2025 could be when the scales tip—are you ready to make a move?    In This Episode We Cover  Buying near the bottom and how to capitalize on the steepest price cuts   What Brian looks for in a rental property during a down market   How to get even deeper discounts (and seller concessions) in 2025   Signs that you should sell your rental and redeploy the profits   How much debt to take on during volatile times in the housing market   And So Much More!

You could stop after just one, but more often than not, that first deal opens the door to even bigger opportunities, allowing you to build wealth, create more passive income streams, and finally reach financial independence. Every successful real estate investor has had that one deal that set off a domino effect, enabling them to build wealth. We’re sharing ours today so you can repeat them!    Joining Dave are Garrett Brown and Matt Faircloth, two investors from different backgrounds, strategies, and parts of the country.

We’ll share how Garrett made $50,000 (tax-free!) on a repeatable first real estate deal anyone in any area can try. Matt shares how he was able to scale up his portfolio fast when he realized he didn’t need to provide the money for his down payments and renovations. Finally, Dave shares the second deal he ever did that upgraded his life permanently and why he does not “sacrifice” to achieve financial freedom faster.     In This Episode We Cover  The real estate deals that defined our investing careers (and how they propelled us to financial freedom)  The easiest real estate investment for beginners (make $50K+ tax-free!)   Using other people’s money to invest in real estate?

And he did it with affordable, small multifamily rental properties that he still buys in today’s market, all while working a demanding schedule that required his attention 24/7, 40 weeks per year.    Bill Price has worked as a sound engineer for some of the music industry’s biggest names. He’s toured with Justin Bieber, Weezer, and Third Eye Blind (among many more), working intensive hours on global tours. But, in the background, when he was off the road, Bill was building an intentional real estate portfolio to replace his income. Today, less than a decade after buying his first true rental, he’s working just 16 weeks per year instead of 40.    Bill made some mistakes and some BIG bets that paid off. We’re talking terrible tenants, eviction notices, bird cages, dog droppings, and flooded basements. But, through it all, Bill says it was well worth it, as 90% of his rental property investing career has been buying deals and collecting checks. If Bill can manage a rental portfolio while touring in Japan and setting up an impromptu skate park for Justin Bieber, why can’t you?

We’re breaking it all down—best and worst markets, home prices, mortgage rates, supply and demand, and more—in our June 2025 housing market update!    Mortgage delinquencies are rising—which could spell trouble. Are we heading back to foreclosure territory of the last housing crash? Not quite, but this is good news for buyers. Dave shares his 2025 investing plan so you can follow along, find better deals, and reduce your risk. Plus, will we see interest rates reverse with good inflation data and a worrying jobs report?

Here’s exactly how to estimate renovation costs, so you know you’re buying a property with a juicy margin instead of one that will just break even. Whether you’re renovating a rental property, planning to refinance after the rehab with the BRRRR method, or flipping a house for some quick cash, we’ll give you the formula to run your renovation numbers FAST.     We’re back with real estate investor questions from the BiggerPockets Forums. First up: how to estimate rehab costs on a distressed property. And, if the renovation costs are high, is the rehab still worth it? Then, once you’ve got your rental portfolio, when should you hire property management?     Your agent wants you to sign an exclusivity agreement so you only work with them; here’s when we will (and definitely won’t) do it. Finally, we share a way to access home equity WITHOUT refinancing at a higher rate and killing your cash flow.    Got a question? Need answers? Share your real estate investing situation on the BiggerPockets Forums.     In This Episode We Cover  How to estimate rehab costs and the price-per-square-foot guidelines to follow  Accessing home equity without refinancing (a way better option in 2025)  How much money should you make on a flip?

This income alone could cover all your bills, allowing your entire paycheck to go toward investing as you're fast-tracked to financial freedom and early retirement. Even if you’ve got a demanding job with long hours and limited free time, investing in real estate is STILL the right move. Today’s guest was able to utilize her (very limited) downtime to build a rental portfolio of six units, all while managing her hectic day job. Now, she’s in a great position to retire early and is even eyeing her dream retirement house as we speak.

This income alone could cover all your bills, allowing your entire paycheck to go toward investing as you're fast-tracked to financial freedom and early retirement. Even if you’ve got a demanding job with long hours and limited free time, investing in real estate is STILL the right move. Today’s guest was able to utilize her (very limited) downtime to build a rental portfolio of six units, all while managing her hectic day job. Now, she’s in a great position to retire early and is even eyeing her dream retirement house as we speak.

You don’t need to be a landlord already or have any investing experience to follow these steps; all you need is around 40 minutes and the desire to build wealth, find financial freedom, and start investing in your future. Ready? Let’s get you your first rental!    These are the steps that Dave followed to eventually build a seven-figure real estate portfolio and reach financial independence himself. We’ll start with YOU—what do you want out of the rental? Cash flow or appreciation? How much time do you have? Want more passive income with slimmer returns or higher returns with a more hands-on approach?    Then, we’ll cover tactical steps to help you find (and buy) your first rental before 2025 ends. Steps like picking your market, building your “buy box,” and the multiple ways to find cash-flowing real estate deals. We’re back in a buyer’s market, so you have the upper hand in negotiations. It’s time to make moves and start building serious wealth, one investment property at a time!    In This Episode We Cover  Why 2025 may be the best time to buy a rental in years! (The market has changed!)  One thing you must do before you start looking into rental property investments   How to pick a market (and neighborhood) that has the highest return potential   The many ways to find real estate deals, both on listing sites and off-market  How to negotiate with sellers for BIG concessions (price cuts, interest rate buydowns, and more!)   And So Much More!

What about early retirement AND making millions of dollars tax-free? Only one real estate investing strategy gives you the ability to do both, but 99% of investors won’t try it. Why? We don’t know because today’s two guests, as well as Dave, are all using this investing strategy in 2025 to make a killing on their real estate deals. It’s not house hacking, it’s not medium-term rentals, and it’s not private lending—it’s live-in flipping.    Never heard of live-in flipping? There’s a good reason—nobody is doing it, even though it boasts the biggest benefits of almost any real estate strategy out there. This method enabled Mindy Jensen to accumulate millions of dollars in net worth by her early 50s, much of which was tax-free. The same strategy is being used by Ashley Kehr and Dave to make hundreds of thousands of dollars in profit simply by buying a house, fixing it up while living in it, and reselling it.    How does this get you to early retirement? Simple: you make hundreds of thousands tax-free, more than what your job might pay you over several years, dramatically boosting your bank account and allowing your investments to multiply way faster. Anyone can do it—whether you’re single, have a partner, or kids—and the benefits are unbeatable. Wanna know how to start? Mindy, the expert on live-in flips, is sharing her secrets in today’s episode.     In This Episode We Cover  Live-in flipping 101, the best real estate strategy for tax-free millions   What type of house makes the best live-in flip (with the highest profits)  What level of renovation to put into the house (DON’T pick your favorite upgrades)  Tips to keep your family comfortable while live-in flipping, especially if you have kids   Financing a live-in flip and one easy way to get a lower interest rate   And So Much More!

He started investing years ago but recently bought another home-run rental for just $87,000, which will continue to boost his passive income. His slow, steady “tortoise” approach is one that anyone (especially beginners) can use in 2025 to build wealth and massive passive income through rental property investing. How do you do it? He’s sharing his blueprint.    Nathan Nicholson woke up one day in his 30s to realize that his bank account had only $32,000 in it. While by no means is $32,000 a small sum, as a top producer in the mortgage business, he expected to have much more—something needed to change. After watching clients close (and make it rich) on rentals, he decided to give it a shot.    But instead of going for the biggest house his money could buy, he opted for a small, affordable property where less could go wrong. It was a good move and one worth repeating. Fast forward over a decade later, Nathan has 22 properties, 10 of which are paid off, with six-figure cash flow coming in every year. He scaled smart (and safely) using his “tortoise approach” to investing—an approach you can use, too!    In This Episode We Cover  Why buying small (less than 1,000 square feet!) rentals is a smart move for beginners   Taking the “tortoise approach” to wealth so you safely get to early retirement   Cashing out your 401(k) for rentals? Why Nathan says it’s worth it   One quick calculation (that beats the 1% rule) every investor should use   Why Nathan is buying even more as price cuts hit many major housing markets   And So Much More!

Home prices are falling in many major markets, and affordability could be improving for Americans. There’s a strong chance home prices could fall even further throughout this year, so should you wait for the bottom or take your chances and put something under contract now?    Dave is sharing his exact investing plan today.    With new home price predictions from top housing market data leaders like Zillow forecasting a drop in home prices, many buyers are remaining hesitant. But, as a real estate investor, you’re not buying your dream house—you’re looking for deals. Dave shares a simple strategy he uses to gauge when to buy, even when the housing market is going in different directions.    If you follow this method, you’ll not only (most likely) be better off than the average investor, but you’ll be buying with far less stress and far greater strategy. Plus, what are the scenarios for the next year or two? Is there a chance that home prices could reverse and return to appreciation territory by this time next year? Dave is sharing his take so you can make better investment decisions.    In This Episode We Cover  Dave’s exact real estate investing plan for buying in 2025 and 2026   New home price predictions and why top experts have flipped their forecasts   One simple, repeatable strategy to invest in rising and falling real estate markets   The “upsides” you MUST look for when investing in real estate in 2025   Is 2025 the bottom?

Don’t believe us? Today’s guest proves it.     Mitra Kalita lives in her dream home today, but it’s only because she bought a house FAR from what was her dream back in 2002. With her family moving often, she was accustomed to packing up and making somewhere new her home throughout her childhood. So, when it was time to buy her first property, then later move, settle in, move again, and repeat, it was nothing new.

Don’t believe us? Today’s guest proves it.     Mitra Kalita lives in her dream home today, but it’s only because she bought a house FAR from what was her dream back in 2002. With her family moving often, she was accustomed to packing up and making somewhere new her home throughout her childhood. So, when it was time to buy her first property, then later move, settle in, move again, and repeat, it was nothing new. This has now led to her dream home, but it only started because she made a move on that first property.     Mitra went through the 2008 housing crash as a journalist, seeing what actual loss looked like for everyday Americans. However, even with memories of the last crash, she still owns real estate and hopes the new generation of first-time homebuyers can do the same.

To prove it, we’re taking three real (on-market!) deals and analyzing them three ways: as a long, medium, and short-term rental to see which will have the highest cash flow. All of these properties are around or under the median home price in the US and have at least one strategy that makes them profitable, even in 2025 with today’s high interest rates.    To help run the deal analysis, Ashley Kehr from the Real Estate Rookie podcast and Garrett Brown from BiggerStays join us to crunch the numbers. You’re probably thinking, “Short-term rentals always make more than long-term rentals!” but that isn’t exactly the case. With the added expense of short-term rental management, some deals may work MUCH better as a long or medium-term rental.    We’ve even got some bonus strategies to share to boost your rental property profits, like renting-by-the-room to get even more revenue and subdividing your lot so you can sell it and pay off your rental faster (more cash flow!).

If mortgage rates come down and wages continue to grow, are we inching closer to equilibrium and the more affordable housing market we’ve all been waiting for?    In this bonus episode, Dave is explaining why housing market “weakness” is a sign of long-term strength and a huge opportunity for investors willing to make moves. Don’t believe him?

We’ve all asked ourselves this, and if you’ve been thinking about buying rentals, you probably have, too. Whether you’re 20 or 50, have a little money or a lot, that first real estate deal can seem so...scary. You’ve never done this before, and things can (and will) go wrong, so how do you know you’re ready? Have you read enough books, saved enough for emergencies, or looked at enough houses? We’ve got three investors who all started in different positions to help get you an answer.     Dave started investing right after college when he was waiting tables and had barely any money in the bank. Henry began to invest well into his working career, but with a family to take care of in the near future, he had to invest differently. On the other hand, Jonathan Greene was born into real estate, with an investor father who taught him the ropes from childhood. Each expert started from a different place, but they all agree on when it makes sense to invest.    How much money do you need to make? How much free time should you set aside? What should your bank account look like? Do you need to know how to renovate and repair? Each investor will share where they think you should be to successfully invest in real estate. Good news—you might already be there!     In This Episode We Cover  The right age to invest in real estate (and can you ever be too young/old?)  How much money you should have in case your first deal goes wrong   Growing your confidence to buy and how many houses you should view before bidding   The time it takes to invest in real estate on the side (do you have the schedule for it?)

You don’t need millions of dollars in stocks, retirement accounts, or cash to do it. You might just need a handful of rental properties. Today’s guest, Paul Novak, only started investing four years ago in 2021, but he’s already nearly at his early retirement goal through rental property investing. He may only need one or two more rentals to fully retire in his mid-40s. Want to trim twenty years off of your working career? Follow Paul’s plan!    After realizing that stock investing could only get him to retirement so fast, Paul knew he needed a better path to early retirement. He thought real estate could be the answer. The problem? This was 2021, where every house was going over asking and competition was steep. He finally got a deal done after previous ones fell through and found he was already making 10 times more money than his stocks were giving him. It became a no-brainer to repeat the strategy.    Fast forward to 2025, Paul has five rentals, with seven units in total, and he’s nearly at his cash flow goal to retire from his job. He did it all through some very creative rental financing. One more rental could unlock the holy grail: early retirement, time freedom, and plenty of passive income. And this is just four years into his investing journey!     In This Episode We Cover  How to retire early in just ten years with boring, repeatable rental deals   401(k) loans, HELOCs (home equity lines of credit), and other ways to fund your rentals  Why interest rates don’t matter as much as you think they do   How to run your numbers on rentals so you’re ALWAYS making money   Why you don’t need a dozen or more rentals to reach financial freedom   And So Much More!

No “off-market” deals, no mailing letters, no cold calling—we’ll walk you through how to find profitable, on-market rental properties that anyone can spot in any market across the country. Plus, how to separate “upside” potential from money pits that aren’t worth the price. Dave has been buying rentals for 15 years, and he’s showing you his exact method.    If you’re used to browsing listing sites like Zillow, Realtor, or Redfin, prepare to get your mind blown.

This trims down your search time for properties by a massive margin.    Now that you’ve used BiggerDeals to find your next potential rental, Dave will show you how to run the numbers in-depth to ensure you’re buying a deal, not a dud. If the numbers work, and it fits your buy box, it’s time to make an offer! The deal-finding and analysis can all be done in minutes, which means you’re WAY closer to your first (or next) rental property than you thought!     In This Episode We Cover  How to find profitable rental properties in any market in just minutes with BiggerDeals  Why you DON’T need to find “off-market deals” to invest in real estate  The “funnel” approach to finding rentals and how to trim down your search time by 90%+  Using the rental property calculator to easily run your numbers   How to estimate variable expenses on your next investment property  The one thing you should always do before you offer on a property   And So Much More!

Why Small Portfolios Win</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/financial-freedom-with-just-4-rentals-why-small-portfolios-win--75653461</link><description><![CDATA[This investor quit her job for good, with just four rental properties. Not 40, not 400—four rentals. And she’s not looking to grow much beyond that. You’ve heard other investors talk about owning dozens, even hundreds of rental units, but you DON’T need to get to that scale to reach financial freedom. Antoinette Munroe is proof of that.  After countless “I hate my job” Google searches, Antoinette found the FIRE movement (financial independence, retire early). This prompted her to start saving and investing at a far greater speed than before, hopefully giving her enough runway to quit. She had saved enough to buy her first house—but realized it could actually make her money. The accidental real estate investor was born!  Fast forward around a decade later, Antoinette owns four rental properties with very high cash flow. She’s done flips, learned to renovate and rehab homes, added additions to increase value, split properties in two, and done whatever it takes to make more from one house. But does Antoinette want more rental units? Not really. She’s happy with her small and mighty real estate portfolio—unless an investment in one of her vacation destinations comes up for sale!    In This Episode We Cover:  Why you DON’T need a large rental property portfolio to quit your job  The unique, high-cash flow rental properties Antoinette focuses on today  Doubling your cash flow by “splitting” rentals with the right amount of space  How to fight city code enforcement fines and reduce them by 90%  Using a HELOC to buy rental properties (and get ALL your money back via BRRRR!)

If you’re listening to this podcast, you’re already multiple steps ahead of the masses that shift their mindset with every news story shouting from the rooftops that a crash, correction, or recession is coming. Savvy investors are sitting, waiting, knowing that if a recession does come, deals usually do, too. Want to build wealth during a recession instead of losing your head? J Scott, author of Recession-Proof Real Estate Investing, is here to show you how.    J says there are three things every investor should be doing before a recession to be in the best position possible. If you follow these three, relatively simple, steps, you’ll be ready to buy deals at a steep discount while average Americans miss out on yet another opportunity to invest. This happened in 2008, and many modern investors regret not having the means to buy back then.    Plus, J outlines the real estate deals that work best in a recession, whether you’re a buy-and-hold landlord or a flipper/renovator. Some homes have serious risks attached to them during downturns, while others offer wealth-preserving (and building) opportunities. Here’s how to invest in real estate if a 2025 recession hits.    In This Episode We Cover  The three things every investor must do to prepare for a recession   Time to sell? Why offloading a poorly performing rental now could be a smart move  What to do right now if you have rental properties (and want to keep your cash flow going!)  The business “cycle” and why we may be at the “peak” before the fall   Building your recession-proof strategy so you DON’T deviate from it when times get tough   And So Much More!

After years of buyer-seller imbalance, with rising mortgage rates, low affordability, and frozen transaction volume, there are finally some signs of improvement. But are these changes enough to call the market “healthy”? Or are we still a long way from normal?    We’re back with a bonus audio-only episode, touching on housing market expert Logan Mohtashami’s recent article, Why the housing market is actually much healthier in 2025. Dave breaks down the five key traits of a healthy housing market—and which ones the 2025 market actually meets.

He did it in a major market and became a millionaire by age 28 simply by repeating this beginner-friendly rental property strategy over and over again. And, even though he started earlier, you can STILL buy properties like his, at affordable prices, that cash flow, in the same market today. Where is he investing, and how did he scale up so fast? We’re breaking it all down in today’s episode.  Jeremy Taggart saved every dollar from his college internship, knowing he wanted to invest in real estate after graduation. He bought his first house, a small multifamily, for just $6,000 down, lived in it, did some DIY renovations, and increased the value. Thanks to the rent savings, he bought another property the following year—this time, making $50,000 (tax-free!) by fixing it up.  This was just the start of the “rinse and repeat” strategy that would turn Jeremy into a millionaire before he was thirty. But it wasn’t easy. Jeremy was fired from his job, had to start working for himself, and did what many real estate investors won’t. The result? Complete financial independence less than a decade after graduating college. His strategy still works in 2025, but will you use it?    In This Episode We Cover:  The easiest way to buy your first property with low money down (only $6,000!)  Making $50,000 tax-free using the “BRRRR strategy” (buy, rehab, rent, refinance, repeat)  The affordable, cash-flowing, stable real estate market Jeremy invests in (you can, too!)

With so much rate volatility as of late, it’s getting harder and harder to predict when interest rates will rise, fall, stabilize, or go in a completely different direction.

There are a few ways future mortgage rates could go, and today, Dave shares his prediction for the 2025 mortgage rate “range.”    You want lower mortgage rates, we want lower mortgage rates—everyone wants lower mortgage rates—how do we get there?     Dave will spell out the scenario that has to happen for rates to fall, and if you start seeing these warning signs, you might want to prepare.

For Jesse Walters, a coffee roaster by trade but a cash-flowing investor now, buying his first rental property opened up an entirely new world of not only passive income—but freedom. After his wife became a real estate agent, Jesse noticed the sizable commission checks and thought hundreds of dollars a month in passive cash flow beat wholesaling three-dollar bags of coffee. Was he right?    Jesse didn’t do any expert-level real estate investing moves to get his first deal done. It was 2021—he found a listing for an affordable house, put 20% down on it, and rented it out. That strategy seemed to work, so Jesse did it again, finding another on-market, affordable rental property to purchase. Then, he took it up a notch, purchasing a fourplex (four units) by putting—get this—$0 down! He used a strategy ANYONE with access to a local bank can try, and this property lit the rocket fuel for his portfolio.    Now, he has 11 rental units, runs multiple house flips a year that pay him five-figure checks, and is building a new triplex that will hit the 1% rule from the start. Jesse shares the exact playbook for building a small but profitable rental property portfolio, even with high interest rates, even in a small town, and even if you have no experience.     In This Episode We Cover  How Jesse used his two small rental properties to put $0 down on a fourplex!  “Building” the 1% rule and why brand new rentals may make more sense than existing ones   Why you CAN cash flow with affordable real estate in small towns   The investor cheat code that Jesse has (thanks to his wife) and why you NEED an investor-friendly agent to get the best deals  How Jesse made $21,000 on a quick, cosmetic, low-cost flip (as a complete newbie)   And So Much More!

For as long as home prices have been recorded, they’ve always increased over time. But, with one of the largest generations, the Baby Boomers, aging out, and household formation shrinking as birth rates decline, we could face a new problem—insufficient demand.  This is a huge problem for Millennials and the Gen Z generation since buying a house, the primary asset that makes up the majority of many Americans’ net worth, may not be the same wise financial decision as it was before. James Rodriguez joins us on the show to break down his recent article, The millennial homebuying predicament, and why buying a home may get easier for the younger generations, but it could come with less long-term payoff.   For years, economists speculated that a “silver tsunami” would flood the housing market with inventory. What actually ensued, however, was more of a “silver glacier,” since we’re still millions of housing units short. But once these boomer-owned homes hit the market, will prices grow, stall, or decline? What happens to home prices if the population stagnates or reverses? Does buying a home become a riskier decision? James is on to help us answer these questions and share which homes could be the safest bet for long-term demand.   In This Episode We Cover The demographic dropoff that could transform the housing market forever  Properties with the most (and least) demand as household sizes shrink  With population concerns, does buying a house become a much riskier decision? The “silver glacier” that’s slowly melting and bringing inventory to the market  Could immigration solve America’s population replacement problem? And So Much More!

Zillow just made headlines by revising its 2025 housing market forecast, now predicting home values to drop in much of the United States. But do other top housing market forecasters agree, and if home prices fall this year, does it put you in a better position as an investor to lock down discounted deals? Dave is unpacking Zillow’s new prediction, plus sharing his own take on what might happen next. This is not the first time Zillow has revised its 2025 housing market forecast. They’ve updated their predictions several times throughout the year, with the newest release being the most negative for home prices. Some markets in the US are even predicted to see drops of up to 10%—other markets could have price growth, while the rest of the nation struggles. What’s causing the downward trend in home prices? Is it tariffs, inflation fears, signs of a recession, or just too much housing supply and insufficient demand? We’re breaking it down in this episode. If you plan on buying or selling this year, don’t miss this.   In This Episode We Cover: Zillow’s new 2025 housing market forecast and why price declines seem likely  The best and worst housing markets for home price growth (some could fall by 10%) What Fannie Mae, Wells Fargo, and JP Morgan are predicting for 2025 home prices Is this the start of a housing market crash, or just a break for buyers?

Everyone thinks it’s impossible to find cash-flowing rental properties in today’s housing market, but this is NOT the truth. We’re going to show you three real rental property deals we’re buying in 2025. All of these are being purchased in 2025—these are NOT cheap deals from 2020 with 3% - 4% interest rates. Each one will build major equity, cash flow, or both.  Dave brought backup on this episode—the entire expert panel from the On the Market podcast—to share real deals they’re doing right now. We’ve got three to go through—a $55,000 heavy rehab rental property that will also serve as Henry’s own vacation home, a new build rental property at a super reasonable $214,000 price, and finally, a very creative (but somewhat costly) land-banking deal in Seattle, Washington.  Each of these deals ranges in expertise needed. Some of the heavier rehab projects may require a few years of renovation experience, while Kathy’s new build deal is a profitable rental ANYONE can buy right now. Regardless of your experience, you can copy these strategies and get richer with these rentals!   In This Episode We Cover Three profitable real estate deals you can do RIGHT NOW in 2025 How to buy a brand new rental property, with a low interest rate, for just around $200,000 How Henry is turning a $55,000 disaster house into a $265,000 top-tier rental  James’s super creative way to make $300,000 on land in high-demand areas  The best investment if you’ve got a busy job, a family to take care of, or just a hectic schedule  And So Much More!

Each one will build major equity, cash flow, or both.  Dave brought backup on this episode—the entire expert panel from the On the Market podcast—to share real deals they’re doing right now. We’ve got three to go through—a $55,000 heavy rehab rental property that will also serve as Henry’s own vacation home, a new build rental property at a super reasonable $214,000 price, and finally, a very creative (but somewhat costly) land-banking deal in Seattle, Washington.  Each of these deals ranges in expertise needed. Some of the heavier rehab projects may require a few years of renovation experience, while Kathy’s new build deal is a profitable rental ANYONE can buy right now. Regardless of your experience, you can copy these strategies and get richer with these rentals!   In This Episode We Cover Three profitable real estate deals you can do RIGHT NOW in 2025 How to buy a brand new rental property, with a low interest rate, for just around $200,000 How Henry is turning a $55,000 disaster house into a $265,000 top-tier rental  James’s super creative way to make $300,000 on land in high-demand areas  The best investment if you’ve got a busy job, a family to take care of, or just a hectic schedule  And So Much More!

Just four years ago, Andrew had little to his name—around $50,000 and a $200,000 condo. That’s what a decade of working had gotten him, but to Andrew, it was a sign he wasn’t doing enough. Like most real estate investors, Andrew stumbled upon Rich Dad Poor Dad and made an immediate change that would propel him to financial freedom. Four years later, he’s there—quitting his job and going full-time into real estate. How did he do it? Simple. “Recycling” his money is what allowed Andrew to scale so quickly. A HELOC (home equity line of credit) on his condo gave him the money for his first small multifamily—a house hack that would help him live for free. With each new property, he’d get a new HELOC and use it to grow his portfolio even faster.  Now, Andrew has a sizable real estate portfolio, personally paying him six figures a year, while he focuses on the next property. If you want to quit your job and give real estate your all, you can do what Andrew did, recycling your money to build your wealth—and you can start with just a condo!  In This Episode We Cover: How to use HELOCs (home equity lines of credit) to quickly fund your first real estate deal Using the BRRRR method (buy, rehab, rent, refinance, repeat) to buy rentals for essentially $0  The “sweet spot” multifamily properties that are easier to manage and boast big cash flow  How to take down huge real estate deals when you don’t have the money  Why buying portfolios of properties (not single properties) is the cheat code for faster financial freedom  And So Much More!

The housing market is seeing some turbulence, even if it remains more stable than other parts of the economy. Inventory is rising, and sellers are in a tough position, with many buyers still waiting out the market. Stock sell-offs and tariffs are keeping fear high, and the housing market could freeze because of it. Where is the housing market headed? We’re catching you up on all the data and big headlines in this April 2025 housing market update. First up: inventory. A few years ago, there was none—now, we may have too much. More homes are hitting the market, which could spell trouble for sellers. With inflation fears and stock market uncertainty dragging down demand, prices may soften. Don’t worry, this isn’t another 2008, even though a certain “delinquency chart” would have you thinking so. We’re also hitting on the condo market and why more than half of condo sellers should prepare to accept an under-asking price…and this could be just the start.  In This Episode We Cover: April 2025 housing market update: home prices, inventory, mortgage rates, and more Why inventory is rising so quickly now and what it means for buyers (good news?) Home price predictions and whether or not we’ll see prices fall even more in inventory-heavy markets  The condo market’s notable sign of weakness and why price drops are becoming more common With more economic pain, will foreclosures increase?

As tariffs, mortgage rates, and stock market volatility take over the news cycle, average Americans are turning away from time-tested investments like real estate and worrying about unstable markets instead. This could be a huge mistake because, as I’m about to show you, the ability to get rich with real estate has not disappeared—if anything, the opportunity has grown. For months, I’ve been talking about how we’re entering the “upside” era of real estate investing—a time when patient, prudent investors can make a killing by pinpointing often-overlooked opportunities. Today, I’m sharing the exact “upsides” to look for in 2025 and how I’m buying real estate deals RIGHT NOW that will make me wealthier in the not-so-far future. Even better? I’m proving how real estate BEATS your other investments—especially during turbulent times. Stocks, bonds, cryptocurrency, and even private businesses can’t hold a candle to real estate. Now is the time to get in, and if you don’t, you can be sure other investors will pick up what you missed, building their financial freedom where you could have built yours!  In This Episode We Cover: The “upside” era explained and seven different ways to build wealth through real estate NOW Real estate vs. stocks vs. cryptocurrency vs. businesses: which reigns supreme? How to achieve financial freedom in just a decade if you start investing NOW Real “upside” deal examples Dave is doing now to build wealth in today’s market  Huge economic tailwinds real estate has over the next few years (if not much longer) And So Much More!

He did it making a median salary, all while working his full-time job and raising his family. He didn’t use flashy methods, risky strategies, or constant cold calling. Starting with around $30,000, Lamontis Gardner went from zero to 19 rental units in just four years and is STILL growing!  After pandemic lockdowns left Lamontis with extra time and little work, he knew he needed to stop solely relying on his W2 income to fuel his life. Of course, Rich Dad Poor Dad found its way into his hands, and the real estate bug began. From there, Lamontis turned a lost deal into an opportunity to buy three duplexes from one owner. The problem? He only had a third of the money. It was time to partner up!  After a home run first real estate deal that gave him a six-figure equity upside, Lamontis knew this was the path for him. Since then, he’s been buying rentals, flipping houses, and doing whatever he can to reinvest in real estate, all while working his W2 job. Now, he’s replaced his W2 income but is STILL growing his portfolio even in 2025’s high-rate, “tough” housing market. Want to do the same? Copy Lamontis’s strategy!   In This Episode We Cover How to invest in real estate when you don’t have enough money for a down payment  Why you DON’T need to cold call in order to find great off-market real estate deals  The easiest (and most profitable) homes to flip that ANYONE can find on-market Why section 8 rentals are not what you think (and might be as good or better than regular rentals) When to flip vs. renovate and rent a house (telltale signs of a great flip/bad rental)  How Lamontis scaled to 19 rentals and multiple flips per year WITHOUT a big team  And So Much More!

What’s the best inflation-proof investment to make in 2025? Which options will merely hedge against inflation, and which will beat inflation so you grow your wealth while prices are going up? With new tariffs potentially flaring up inflation again, every investor should be paying careful attention to this.

If inflation is about to take away your spending power, where’s the best place to put your money?

Today’s guest was working multiple jobs, and a single property purchase allowed her to finally free up her weekends and regain some freedom in her life. The best part? She did it with just around $4,000, then repeated the process again and again, leading her to quit her demanding teaching job in just four years! Today, she’s describing exactly how she did it! Deandra McDonald called a lender, expecting to get a preapproval for a home. What actually happened? They told her, “No. Come back when you have more money, better credit, and less debt.” She hustled for two years, saving, working more, and paying off debt. She finally secured a loan for her first property, a two-bedroom townhouse that would change her life forever. Now, she’s a financially independent real estate investor, no longer tied to her teaching job, and investing in completely overlooked “rental properties” that produce killer returns and allow her to live job-free. These properties are still largely ignored, but Deandra says it’s not too late to take advantage of them and escape your W2 job, too!  In This Episode We Cover: How getting just one rental property can lead you to financial freedom in under a decade Why you CAN NOT give up when a lender tells you “no” for a home purchase The overlooked rental properties that you can buy at a MAJOR discount  Why Deandra wants to pay off her mortgages instead of scaling to a huge unit count The easiest way to start investing in real estate that requires the least money possible And So Much More!

Home prices aren’t crashing, but many of them are dropping, or stagnating, as homes sit on the market and seller confidence drops, buyer control rises, and economic sentiment remains low. Americans aren’t feeling good about the economy, but this makes buying a home even better: lower mortgage rates, the ability to get seller concessions, and longer negotiation times put buyers in the driver’s seat. So, how should you take advantage?  Dave brought the entire expert investing panel from the On the Market podcast to the show to share what they’re buying, what they’re selling, and how they’re investing during this new buyer’s market.   Not every market in the US is experiencing a buyer’s market, but if you’re in one of the many major metros that is, we’re sharing how to take advantage of it. Fear means opportunity, and the opportunity is here. If you’re buying rentals, how does this affect your cash flow? If you’re flipping homes, when should you start dropping prices before your listing gets too stale?

This was a decision I made after seeing severe weakness in the market and realizing it was time to put my money where my mouth is. For months, I’ve been talking about the “upside” era strategy of real estate investing—the theory that now is a great time to buy as real estate is primed to experience significant upsides in the future, making investors rich. I’m doubling down on this due to market volatility—and in today’s episode, I’m sharing exactly where I’m putting my money. I made a move that most investors would caution against, but I ran the numbers (many times) and am confident in what I decided to do. Part of my plan is to move money out of riskier assets with potentially lower returns and into assets that I’m confident will generate stronger returns. This is something EVERYONE (yes, even you) should be thinking about NOW to build long-term wealth in the future. I’ve got two places I’m planning on putting the money from making this move. One will allow me to capitalize on future real estate deals, the other will guarantee me a minimum of a 6.5% return—and that’s just the floor of the return. I’m putting the “upside” strategy into play now, and if you’re feeling the same way about the economy as I am, you should, too!  In This Episode We Cover: The big move I made and why I’m cashing out of some investments to fuel others  How I’m getting a guaranteed MINIMUM 6.5% return with this big investing move  Rental properties I’m looking for right now that have the highest “upside” potential  Three things every investor should do right now to ensure they capitalize on the “upside” era  Key indicators that the stock market is significantly overvalued (and what I did with my stocks)  And So Much More!

He buys rentals you can find on any real estate listing site, uses his own money to invest, doesn’t need “creative financing” techniques to fund the deal, and treats his tenants well. This is a real estate portfolio anyone can repeat, and it has made Welby Accely a multimillionaire in just over a decade, even after he lost everything (three times!).   In a time when every real estate guru is trying to get you into the lowest-money-down deal with the most risk and the shallowest margins, Welby takes it the whole other direction. His simple offer “formula” allows him to buy properties under market value, fix them up, get them rented, and refinance out to create an “infinite return.” Basically the BRRRR (buy, rehab, rent, refinance, repeat) strategy, but EVEN safer.  How does he find rentals that are (almost) always worth more than what he pays for them? Welby says, “Every deal is a flip,” meaning if you buy rentals like a flipper would, your profit margins massively multiply, and you reap huge financial benefits. Welby is a REAL real estate investor, giving you a real strategy you can use in 2025, even with high interest rates. The question is, will you take advantage of it like Welby did?   In This Episode We Cover Welby’s unbeatable “offer formula” to get discounted real estate deals with HUGE equity upside  Why Welby believes every investment is a “flip” and how it’s made him millions How to find real estate deals ON-MARKET by simply browsing listing sites and activating notifications  Why Welby always puts more money down on his properties (and it pays him back BIG time) What you can offer (that isn’t money) to get a seller to accept your bid  And So Much More!  (00:00) Intro (01:32) NEVER Buy “Cheap” Real Estate (03:54) Every Investment is a “Flip” (06:13) ONLY Buy These Properties (09:32) How to Find On-Market Deals (15:29) The Easy Offer Formula (18:02) Put MORE Money Down (23:21) $4,300/Month Cash Flow (ONE Property) (27:55) Offer More Than Money (32:02) Follow Welby’s Formula!

His simple offer “formula” allows him to buy properties under market value, fix them up, get them rented, and refinance out to create an “infinite return.” Basically the BRRRR (buy, rehab, rent, refinance, repeat) strategy, but EVEN safer.  How does he find rentals that are (almost) always worth more than what he pays for them? Welby says, “Every deal is a flip,” meaning if you buy rentals like a flipper would, your profit margins massively multiply, and you reap huge financial benefits. Welby is a REAL real estate investor, giving you a real strategy you can use in 2025, even with high interest rates. The question is, will you take advantage of it like Welby did?   In This Episode We Cover Welby’s unbeatable “offer formula” to get discounted real estate deals with HUGE equity upside  Why Welby believes every investment is a “flip” and how it’s made him millions How to find real estate deals ON-MARKET by simply browsing listing sites and activating notifications  Why Welby always puts more money down on his properties (and it pays him back BIG time) What you can offer (that isn’t money) to get a seller to accept your bid  And So Much More!  (00:00) Intro (01:32) NEVER Buy “Cheap” Real Estate (03:54) Every Investment is a “Flip” (06:13) ONLY Buy These Properties (09:32) How to Find On-Market Deals (15:29) The Easy Offer Formula (18:02) Put MORE Money Down (23:21) $4,300/Month Cash Flow (ONE Property) (27:55) Offer More Than Money (32:02) Follow Welby’s Formula!

What’s the defining factor between a stable housing market and one where sellers are actively cutting prices? Housing inventory! This metric defined the 2020 - 2022 run-up in home prices, but the rubber band of demand is snapping back as buyer power grows, housing inventory rises, and investors get even better buying opportunities. Remember when people said, “I’ll buy when prices drop”? Well, now might be the time. ResiClub’s Lance Lambert joins us to provide a holistic view of housing inventory, prices, demand, and emerging opportunities. Lance walks through the most up-to-date data on where housing inventory is rising fast, where prices are quickly declining, and which markets are holding on as sellers remain in control. We’ll also talk about why homebuilding costs are about to JUMP and the reason Warren Buffett sold his homebuilding stocks shortly after buying them. Will construction slow down, limiting new inventory and leading us back into ultra-low supply? If so, this could push home prices higher, creating a prime opportunity for real estate investors.  In This Episode We Cover: Is spiking inventory a worrying sign for the housing market, or are we merely normalizing? What to look at in your housing market to forecast whether prices will rise or fall  Why are homebuilding costs about to JUMP, and could this lead to even more inventory problems? The new housing trend: Older renters, but could this mean more demand for rentals? And So Much More!  Links from the Show Join BiggerPockets for FREE Let Us Know What You Thought of the Show!

It’s not a single-family rental, it’s not a large apartment building, it’s not even a duplex or a triplex—it’s a “sweet spot” small multifamily. These investment properties, ranging from five to 25 units, make more money, are easier to manage, and help you scale faster to achieve financial freedom. Even large multifamily investing experts like Brian Burke are ditching the huge apartment complexes to buy these. But what makes these small multifamily investment properties so much better than their bigger and smaller counterparts? We’re discussing the massive investing opportunities in 2025 for these properties with Brian today and how new investors and those looking for a manageable portfolio can leverage these properties to reach financial freedom. These types of properties are still experiencing low prices with limited competition, which means that if you know about them, you already have an advantage. How long do we have until multifamily prices rebound and these investments become out of reach for regular investors? How do you analyze a small multifamily property to ensure it makes you monthly passive income? Brian shares his wisdom and gives an exact timeline for when it may be too late to buy.  In This Episode We Cover: The rental property “sweet spot” for more income and fewer headaches  Why it’s easier to own multifamily than single-family homes  The multifamily real estate crash and why prices are LOW right now How to analyze small multifamily before you buy and which expenses most new investors forget What makes a “good” small multifamily real estate deal in 2025 And So Much More!

Thanks to his smart “rinse and repeat” strategy, he’s quickly scaled from zero to 13 rental units in just four years, all while collecting thousands of dollars of cash flow a month. He would have never been able to get to this place if he hadn’t followed a strategy many investors are too scared to try. Mike Johnson knew the best way to take bigger career risks was to have a backup plan. The ultimate passive income plan? Rental properties. But he didn’t want to put 20% to 25% down on each property he bought, so he started where many investors do—house hacking. Four years later, he’s continued his repeatable house hacking strategy, purchasing a new property every year, living in one unit, and renting out the others. This has allowed Mike to build a portfolio worth $3.4 million in just four years while buying in B+ or A-class neighborhoods and taking home a healthy amount of cash flow. But he has dealt with his fair share of headaches—squatters, non-paying tenants, and a lot of purple paint. Mike still says investing has been a massive win for him, and you can repeat his same strategy!   In This Episode We Cover: How to start investing in real estate with little money using the house hacking strategy  Why your primary residence IS an investment (and a phenomenal one at that) The biggest mistake Mike made that led to him buying a property with a squatter in the unit  The new 5% down multifamily loan you can use to buy bigger, better, more expensive properties  The cash flow AND appreciation market Mike is bullish on (and keeps investing in) When to self-manage vs. hire property management for your rentals  And So Much More!

More and more homeowners and landlords are using this strategy to pay their mortgages, pad their pockets with cash flow, and increase their home values significantly. Of course, we’re talking about ADUs (accessory dwelling units), the rental properties that states are begging you to build, and you can do so right now with the home you already own. To help you affordably (and profitably) build your first ADU, we brought on Derek Sherrell, AKA That ADU Guy, to give you the beginner steps to your first attached (or detached) investment. We’re walking through which properties have the best ADU opportunity, how much an ADU costs to build or convert, how much an ADU will make, how to fund and finance your first ADU, and how Derek builds an ADU from scratch in just 90 days! Derek often makes an infinite return on his ADU investments, and he’s teaching you how to do the same! If you’re in an expensive state like California, Oregon, or Washington, this strategy is even more effective as you can collect more rent AND do so without local regulations slowing down your ADU progress!

More and more homeowners and landlords are using this strategy to pay their mortgages, pad their pockets with cash flow, and increase their home values significantly. Of course, we’re talking about ADUs (accessory dwelling units), the rental properties that states are begging you to build, and you can do so right now with the home you already own. To help you affordably (and profitably) build your first ADU, we brought on Derek Sherrell, AKA That ADU Guy, to give you the beginner steps to your first attached (or detached) investment. We’re walking through which properties have the best ADU opportunity, how much an ADU costs to build or convert, how much an ADU will make, how to fund and finance your first ADU, and how Derek builds an ADU from scratch in just 90 days! Derek often makes an infinite return on his ADU investments, and he’s teaching you how to do the same! If you’re in an expensive state like California, Oregon, or Washington, this strategy is even more effective as you can collect more rent AND do so without local regulations slowing down your ADU progress!

Everyone has seen the TV shows, podcast interviews, and the high-priced renovations, even in their own neighborhoods. But what if where you live is WAY too expensive to flip houses? The home costs are high, the labor costs are high, and underpriced, outdated homes are hard to find. Thankfully, you’re not out of luck. Today, we’re teaching you how to flip houses from a distance, even thousands of miles away! Dominique Gunderson is currently flipping 12 houses from 2,000 miles away. Yes, it’s possible (and profitable), and Dominique has made it her full-time business. As a Los Angeles native, Dominique couldn’t afford anything in her home market, but through visiting family in New Orleans, she realized it was the perfect place to flip. So, she slowly started scaling a team that would allow her to be anywhere in the world while she ran her business. In only her mid-twenties, she’s been able to build a team that takes care of the renovations and rehabs for her while she handles finding the deals and getting the funding. Today, she’s teaching you how to do the same: build your out-of-state team, scale the right way, and when (and how) to delegate so you don’t do all the work. She’s even breaking down her profit margins and revealing how much you can actually make flipping in affordable markets.  In This Episode We Cover: How to flip houses anywhere (and FROM anywhere!) without doing the work yourself How much long-distance flips can make you in 2025 (Dominique’s profit margins) Building your boots-on-the-ground team to handle renovations for you When to flip vs. hold and signs a flip should become your next rental property  The secret to scaling your team so you can do less work and make more money  And So Much More!

Scott is putting his money where his mouth is, revealing the contrarian moves he’s making to his portfolio to keep his wealth growing during this increasingly volatile period.

Do you hire a property manager or self-manage your rental(s)? How do you know a property manager will ensure your rental is performing instead of just collecting a monthly fee?

Want to spot an average property manager vs. one that builds your wealth? Follow Selali Kalevor’s advice. He’s not only a property manager himself but an “upside” investor as well, who knows what it takes to make not only his clients' properties perform but also his own. He shares the key questions to ask ANY property manager and must-know tips for self-managing rentals. Plus, Dave and Selali describe the one thing that makes a property manager a massive value to rental property investors, and if your manager can’t do this, you might as well find a new one.   In This Episode We Cover: Crucial questions to ask a property manager to see if they’re worth the fee Hiring a local vs. national property management company (and what to check before you hire them) The type of “manager” that will make you more money with less stress  Signs that you should (or shouldn’t) be managing your properties yourself  The #1 most important factor when hiring a property manager  And So Much More!

Well, it’s more than possible, and today’s investor proves it. After spending months looking for the “perfect BRRRR” property, Jon Kessler stumbled upon it and, through a series of fortunate events, got paid $50,000 to buy a cash-flowing rental property. And guess what? This wasn’t a one-time occurrence. Jon repeated this strategy multiple times to build his real estate portfolio with little money and reach financial freedom in just 11 years! So what is the “perfect BRRRR” strategy, and how can you repeat it to get paid at the closing table, just like Jon? Today, Jon is walking us through his decade-long real estate investing journey, starting with being tens of thousands of dollars underwater on his home in 2008 to getting paid to buy rental properties, building an off-market lead business, and eventually getting to his true goal: financial freedom and truly passive income. Jon faced a LOT of ups and downs. He started with zero investing experience, had non-paying tenants, a home with negative equity, and built his real estate portfolio all while working a full-time job and raising kids. Think you can’t invest in real estate in your situation? Jon will prove you couldn’t be more wrong!  In This Episode We Cover: The “perfect BRRRR” investing strategy that pays YOU to buy rentals  Financial freedom in just a decade and why it’s still more than possible Why you should turn your primary residence into a rental property when you move out Working with wholesalers and how to score super underpriced real estate deals How Jon finds his off-market real estate deals and the method he uses to contact motivated sellers 100% passive income and what Jon is investing in now for more time freedom And So Much More!

There’s one often overlooked real estate investing “upside” that, over time, makes rental property investors and landlords rich without any extra effort. This is one upside that Dave is exceptionally bullish on and is one of the most compelling cases for rental property investing. It’s not home price growth, it’s not tax benefits, and it’s not zoning changes—it’s simple: rent price growth. Rent has steadily grown throughout the history of the housing market and shot up at an extreme pace during 2020 - 2022.

There’s one often overlooked real estate investing “upside” that, over time, makes rental property investors and landlords rich without any extra effort. This is one upside that Dave is exceptionally bullish on and is one of the most compelling cases for rental property investing. It’s not home price growth, it’s not tax benefits, and it’s not zoning changes—it’s simple: rent price growth. Rent has steadily grown throughout the history of the housing market and shot up at an extreme pace during 2020 - 2022. Now, the pendulum is swinging in the other direction as rents soften and tons of supply hit the market. But how far are we from going back to the days of solid rent growth? And with the new housing supply already starting to be absorbed, could we get to above-average rent growth again? We brought Chris Salviati from Apartment List on the show to share his team’s rent research.  Over time, your rental income will rise significantly while your mortgage payment stays the same, boosting your profits.

This is serious interest rate relief for homebuyers, real estate investors, and anyone getting a mortgage. But will mortgage rates fall even further in 2025? A new article from HousingWire’s Logan Mohtashami suggests that even more rate relief could be on the way, but not without a series of caveats.  To give our take, we’re bringing you a bonus episode where Dave breaks down Logan’s argument, gives his opinion on the hypotheses, and reveals what would have to happen for rates to drop into the low sixes, maybe even into the five percent range! With bond yields ticking down and recession fears mounting, mortgage rates seem poised to improve compared to the past couple of years. Will we have to see economic pain before rates lower? Could rates go back up, even higher than before, if positive economic news emerges? Dave is breaking down both his own predictions and Logan’s in this bonus episode.   In This Episode We Cover: Today’s mortgage rates and why we’re hitting 2025 lows  Two factors that influence mortgage rates and where they both stand now  The bond yield “spread” and how its improvement could keep rates low  What has to happen for rates to fall even more, and why it’s not all good news Could mortgage rates get BELOW six percent in 2025?

Just ask Leka Devatha, a Seattle-based investor. She’s got ONE BRRRR property this year that could make her $600,000 in profit. And that’s ONE home, not an apartment complex. So what is the BRRRR strategy, and why do so many investors write it off instead of trying it in 2025? Are they missing out? Absolutely! BRRRR stands for buy, rehab, rent, refinance, repeat. The basic formula is this: buy a house that needs some improvement, renovate the home (to a scale you’re comfortable with), rent out the home to tenants now that it’s fixed up, and refinance it. Now that the property is worth more, you may be able to get the bank to pay YOU back your initial down payment and renovation costs due to the increase in equity. Then…repeat until you’re financially free. How do you pull off a BRRRR in 2025 with high interest rates, high home prices, and rising renovation costs? Dave and Leka are walking through their own BRRRR deals, showing you how to successfully BRRRR and do it without using ANY of your own money (seriously!).  In This Episode We Cover: The BRRRR strategy explained and whether it still works in 2025 Leka’s BRRRR deals making her up to $600K! The best property types for BRRRRing to get more cash flow, higher appreciation, and bigger returns  How to use other people’s money (OPM) to fund your BRRRR investments  The “DADU” strategy that could skyrocket your home price with one savvy addition  And So Much More!

After listening to Tim Yu, you’ll have no excuse NOT to invest in real estate. He’s done it all: house hacking, creative financing, seller financing, lease-to-own, single-family, multifamily, house flipping, and everything in between to find the real estate investing tactic that worked best for his goals and his lifestyle. After trying (and failing) house flipping, Tim was ready to give up on real estate entirely. It wasn’t until a house hack (renting out other units/rooms in your home) gave Tim the cash flow he needed that he decided to give real estate another shot. From there, he spent hours calling owners after work, sweating bullets on cold calls, and refining his real estate skills. He’s been able to buy a house for truly ZERO dollars down, pick up profitable rental properties for as little as $3,000, and get seller financing terms that have made him six figures in just a year or so. Tim has tried every strategy, so you don’t have to, and if one of his tactics resonates with you, be like Tim and give it your all!  In This Episode We Cover: The one loan that lets you buy your first property for ZERO dollars down How to get squatters out of your property (fast) with “cash for keys” Using seller financing to pick up real estate deals for just $3,000-$5,000 Tim’s personalized strategy for finding off-market deals and motivated sellers  The new type of rental property Tim is buying that makes $3,000+/month in cash flow  And So Much More!

The one with the pool and the ocean views, space for the kids to run around, and a huge pantry. The secret nobody will tell you: you CAN afford your dream house right now—or at least you can afford the investment that will get you there. Just ask James Dainard, who took a $175,000 hoarder condo and turned it into what would eventually become his $8,500,000 dream house. You can do the same using his level-up strategy. James only started with $9,000, which turned into multiple millions over the next fifteen years. He would buy a house, fix it, and trade it up for a better one, repeating this strategy five times until he reached the goal: a 9,000-square-foot luxury home in one of the priciest markets in America, Scottsdale, Arizona. He made millions of dollars completely tax-free because of this live-in flip strategy that ANYONE can use to massively multiply their wealth and take them to their dream home. And maybe you don’t want an $8,500,000 mansion—that’s fine! It only took James three house flips to get into “dream home territory,” and you can do the same!  In This Episode We Cover: How to use the live-in flip strategy to make tax-free millions and buy your dream home Why buying the worst house in the best neighborhood can make you rich  Why your primary residence IS an investment…if you use it the right way  The real estate tax cheat code that lets homeowners make $500K in tax-free profits  How to renovate a home even if you have zero flipping or construction experience  Why it’s crucial to find a spouse who’s DTF (down to flip) And So Much More!

Today, we’re going through each tier of rental renovations: easy and cheap ($5,000 or under), moderately challenging and expensive ($25,000 - $50,000), and hard/pro-level ($50,000+). This will give you a roadmap of high-ROI rental renovations you can make right now to increase your property’s value and rent. Why are these rental renovations (AKA value-add) so important right now? Because with so many investors and homebuyers sitting out of the market, you can take your pick of homes with overlooked potential and turn them into high-value investment properties. This not only makes tenants happier due to new renovations and upgrades but also gets you higher rents and wealth-building equity to boot. We’ll start with some easy ones—painting, tiling, adding backsplashes, etc.—and work our way up to the pro-level renovations like adding square footage and turning a single-family home into a multifamily. Based on your experience, you can go either route, but both have enormous potential to turn your initial investment into a killer real estate deal.  In This Episode We Cover: How to increase your property’s value (and rents) with high-ROI rental renovations The easiest (and cheapest) upgrades to make that take little time What to look for when buying a home for “value-add” and signs of money-making potential The one appliance you should NEVER include in your rental property The easy bathroom conversion that will massively boost your home’s equity Pro-level rental renovations that could make you six-figures And So Much More!

Now, would you do it while having one of the most prestigious jobs on the planet? If you said yes to both, you might as well be Gary Striewski, rental property investor, DIY home renovator, and, yes, host of SportsCenter. Wait… the host of SportsCenter used a bucket as a bathroom while renovating? Yep, but he’s got a good reason for going through the struggle. Working at SportsCenter has always been Gary’s dream job, but when 2020 hit, he knew he needed an alternative income stream. Real estate seemed like the obvious answer, but without much savings and only a car to his name he didn’t have many options to invest. So what did he do? Sold his car, downgraded significantly, and picked up a condo for $20,000 down. Fast forward a few years—Gary has turned that first condo into a full real estate portfolio, including a private ski house that’s soon to be a short-term rental. He’s had evictions, DIY renovations where he lived without plumbing for months, and closings that didn’t go as planned, but with persistence and grit, he’s become an expert investor. Follow Gary’s tenacity, and you can, too!  In This Episode We Cover: How Gary turned a $20,000 down payment into ten rental units and a real estate portfolio Gary’s “value-add” renovation that 99% of people would never do themselves A huge tenant mistake Gary made that will cost you if you repeat it Why you should constantly evaluate selling your rentals, even if they’re performing well Whether or not condos are worth it as starter real estate investments  Sports stars who (unsurprisingly) love real estate investing And So Much More!

Think again. We’re doing BRRRR deals right now that are making us cash flow and serious equity while most investors sit on the sidelines. But how do we FIND these money-making BRRRR deals? We’re sharing the new BRRRR formula in today’s episode, along with more questions and answers from the BiggerPockets Forums. Besides uncovering our BRRRR secrets, we’re helping an investor scale from single-family rentals to multifamily rentals. This is a BIG jump, and there’s a smarter way to scale your way up to big, new-build multifamily buildings. Next, an investor finally sees the light, realizing cash flow ISN’T everything. He’s about to walk into a nice chunk of equity with his new property, but is the cash flow TOO low (should he worry)? What were you thinking about when you were 18? Maybe you were stressing out about college applications or sleeping in until noon. One ambitious young investor wants to get his first rental at just 18 years old, but on this rare occasion, we advise against it. If you’re in his position, too, we’d recommend doing something else first. Finally, are “small towns” too risky to invest in? How small is too small? We’re getting into it in this episode! Looking to invest? Need answers? Ask your question on the BiggerPockets Forums!  In This Episode We Cover: How to BRRRR in 2025 and how Henry finds his undervalued real estate deals The pitfalls of scaling from single to multifamily rentals and how to do it the right way Is a low cash flow rental worth it for a five-figure equity gain once purchased?

Always end your leases in winter. NEVER raise rents on a tenant. These are just some of the “Dionisms” that have made Dion McNeeley, the so-called “lazy investor,” rich with rental properties.

In this episode, we’re breaking down the ten different “Dionisms” (unconventional landlord advice) that have literally made Dion millions and can do the same for you.  Dion went from debt-riddled to multi-millionaire in just over a decade, starting his journey making just $17/hour, with three kids and very little time.

If it all pans out, he’ll be one million dollars (or more) richer, with a brand new investment property that’ll spit out $7,000 cash flow monthly! This is a DREAM real estate deal that any investor wishes they could get their hands on…but here’s the thing: anyone can do this, and you can 'build' your own deal from scratch! After making $100,000 in his first 18 months of investing, David knew he had a knack for real estate investing. He was a nurse practitioner and in no way wanted to give up his sizable six-figure salary, but he knew he wanted to scale his real estate portfolio in a big way. The problem? Deals are hard to come by, and David’s main strategy—medium-term rentals (renting to traveling nurses)—was getting saturated. So, he searched for something new and landed on a big opportunity: build his OWN short-term rental in one of the hottest destinations in the US but build it specifically to beat the competition. He found the money and the dirt to build on and is off to the races—keeping his small portfolio while taking a big risk for a massive reward: a million-dollar equity upside if he pulls it off.

In This Episode We Cover: How David is ‘building’ a seven-figure equity-upside real estate deal Using other people’s money to invest in real estate (and how to do it the RIGHT way) How David scaled from zero to eight rentals in just three years The bright side of short-term rental regulations and the market that David feels very confident in How to find a builder/developer for your first new construction rental property (and vet them BEFORE you start!)

If it all pans out, he’ll be one million dollars (or more) richer, with a brand new investment property that’ll spit out $7,000 cash flow monthly! This is a DREAM real estate deal that any investor wishes they could get their hands on…but here’s the thing: anyone can do this, and you can 'build' your own deal from scratch! After making $100,000 in his first 18 months of investing, David knew he had a knack for real estate investing. He was a nurse practitioner and in no way wanted to give up his sizable six-figure salary, but he knew he wanted to scale his real estate portfolio in a big way. The problem? Deals are hard to come by, and David’s main strategy—medium-term rentals (renting to traveling nurses)—was getting saturated. So, he searched for something new and landed on a big opportunity: build his OWN short-term rental in one of the hottest destinations in the US but build it specifically to beat the competition.

Home prices keep rising in every major metro—even with interest rates stuck in the sevens. It seems that nothing can stop the wave of demand hitting home sellers even as affordability reaches lows we haven’t seen in decades. But what could be the housing market’s kryptonite—the one thing that could lead to lower prices and distress in the market? Today, we’re giving you a Q1 housing market update with the latest data coming in from January 2025, sharing must-know metrics about home sales, prices, mortgage rates, buyer demand, and even mortgage delinquencies.  Is Dave already off on his 2025 housing market predictions? He could be, as housing has seen unexpected strength despite last year’s big election, inflation rising once again, and interest rates more than double what they were just a few years ago. Will we see mortgage rates (and prices) drop at any point this year? What’s the one thing that could flip this housing market? We’re getting into the mystery metric you MUST watch to know what’s coming next.  In This Episode We Cover: A Q1 2025 housing market update: prices, rates, demand, inventory, and more! One troubling metric that could spell pain for the housing market in 2025  The markets where inventory is exploding, but does that mean prices will fall? Is there a chance that mortgage rates will drop this year, or has the Fed paused for good? The often overlooked (and cheap!) real estate markets seeing sizable home price appreciation  And So Much More!

We all knew about the Airbnb bubble that formed shortly after lockdowns. With low interest rates and local vacationing exploding, everyone wanted to cash in on the short-term rental craze. The result? Inexperienced hosts flooded the market with half-baked Airbnb listings, leading to an oversaturation in vacation rentals and stricter short-term rental laws. But things are beginning to change. Avery Carl, arguably the most knowledgeable short-term rental investor in the country and author of Smarter Short-Term Rentals, has NEVER sold a vacation rental due to poor performance. In fact, she’s stayed booked and busy while new short-term rental investors struggle to fill their units. How does she do it? And why does she think now is the time to double down on traditional vacation rental markets? Avery gives her expert advice on where (and what) to buy, how to boost your Airbnb bookings even in crowded markets, and why you don’t need every amenity under the sun to attract guests. Plus, why are Airbnb bans a good thing? Avery shares why some investors will thrive while others fight to survive in the new short-term rental space.

We’re not talking about a huge apartment complex or commercial real estate investment. $1,500,000 on a single-family home purchase. How is that even possible? Dina Onur is more than a million dollars richer after spotting one rare real estate investing “upside” at the closing table. And the best part? She’s just a regular, everyday investor. Dina runs her own home healthcare business and is a mom of three, but she decided, “I’m not busy enough; let’s start buying (and renovating) rentals!” So, that’s exactly what she did. Her clients routinely had houses to sell, so instead of passing them along to real estate agents she knew, Dina made the jump, buying a triplex to test her hand at rental property investing. She did a BIG renovation but created some serious sweat equity as a result. The next rental? Double the size—a six-unit investment property. But, none of these compare to the one deal that is making her over a million dollars. This was such a rare find that Dina was offered hundreds of thousands of dollars over the asking price to sell it to other investors. She refused, and if you can find a property like hers, you too could make a seven-figure profit on your next real estate deal.  In This Episode We Cover: How Dina made $1,500,000 on a real estate deal everyone else overlooked Pulling yourself up from bankruptcy to rebuild your financial life The one reason you ALWAYS check the zoning of a property before you buy Why Dina refuses to invest in single-family homes and sees them as too risky Using a HELOC (home equity line of credit) to fund your home renovations  Financing new construction and a sneaky way to get around the massive down payment And So Much More!

It’s easy—copy the experts. They’re doing it over dozens of deals, so why not apply their same tactics to your properties? That’s precisely what we’re sharing in today’s episode—the “upside” tactics ANYONE can use on ANY investment property to create more cash flow, better equity upside, and make their future selves richer. Last week, we discussed the ten different “upside” investing tactics you can use in 2025 to boost your real estate returns. Today, we’re walking through six of them, in-depth, with investing experts Ashley Kehr and James Dainard. Ashley has been investing in rentals for over a decade, seeing basic properties become home-run rentals over time. James has made millions of dollars flipping houses with HUGE “upside,” he’s teaching you how to do the same, even if you’re only buying rentals. We’re walking through our favorite “upside” strategies and how to spot the properties that have multiple "upsides" for investors. Follow these steps, and in a few years, the properties you buy in 2025 could become your best investments yet!  In This Episode We Cover: Why you CAN’T just focus on today’s rent prices/cash flow and how basic properties can become cash flow kings The “rocket fuel” James used to explode his net worth and real estate portfolio  Hidden zoning opportunities that most homebuyers have no clue about (MASSIVE price appreciation potential)  How to pinpoint the “path of progress” so you know exactly where to buy  Why putting more cash down on a real estate deal is such an underrated move  And So Much More!

This investing strategy allows you to slowly scale your real estate using low-money-down loans, turning one down payment into multiple properties. It’s one of the smartest, safest ways to build wealth, but it’s almost been forgotten. Today, we’re talking to an investor reviving “The Stack,” using it to build an eight-rental real estate portfolio starting with just $15,000. Like most investors, Connor Anderson had barely enough money to close on his first house, a condo. He scrounged together just $15,000 to buy his first property and immediately began to rent out the other rooms. But this was just the beginning for Connor. Over the next few years, Connor slowly turned the rent savings from that one condo into a single-family house, a duplex, and now a fourplex, which he is still house hacking in. The best part? Those properties he used to live in are now cash-flowing rentals WITH equity, which he has used to buy more properties. This is “The Stack” method done the right way, and if you want to safely, slowly, and steadily grow your rental portfolio without a ton of money, this is how to do it.   In This Episode We Cover: “The Stack” method and how to use it to build a rental portfolio with little money  Why you DON’T need to rush building a real estate portfolio to be successful One investing area that both Connor and Dave are very bullish on  How Connor scored a zero-dollar-down, off-market duplex  Interest rate buydowns and other strategies to create cash flow in 2025  And So Much More!

You’ve probably heard of it before—house hacking allows you to significantly reduce (or eliminate) your mortgage/rent payment, so your housing cost hits rock bottom or even zero. This helps you save more money every month, invest faster, and reach financial freedom after a short (but worthwhile) period of sacrifice.  Which US markets are best for house hacking, getting a great job, and paying next to nothing for housing? We’re presenting four of the best house hacking markets in the country, some of which you’ll probably be tempted to move to. These markets all have lower home prices but respectable wages, things to do, and great rents for you to collect.  Who better to judge these markets than the man who wrote The House Hacking Strategy, Craig Curelop? Data scientist Austin Wolff is pitching these four real estate markets to Craig and Dave as the house hacking duo votes on whether they’d move to that market to house hack or stay put where they are.   In This Episode We Cover: How to reduce (or eliminate) your monthly mortgage/rent payment with house hacking The different levels of house hacking (comfort vs. profitability)  What makes a market worthwhile to house hack in (it ISN’T just about the money) A mountain biking capital with booming job growth and low home prices  A “smart-grid” affordable city close to two major markets  Great jobs, an excellent airport, solid schools, and strong growth from this underrated southern market  Buying a house for under $300K in this city with a sports atmosphere  And So Much More!

If you hate the idea of having hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars in equity and six-figure passive cash flow in the not-so-far future, ignore the ten strategies we’re sharing today. When followed, these ten tactics will help you buy real estate deals with phenomenal “upside” potential in markets that most investors overlook but will WISH they bought in within a few years. Anyone can use this information to unlock the “upside” in whatever market they choose to invest in, but they aren’t obvious. You’ve probably been told the opposite of the advice we’ll give you today. But here’s the thing: the housing market has CHANGED. In 2025, those 2015 strategies will not work. To unlock the “upside” potential that will lead only savvy real estate investors to generational wealth, plentiful passive income, and serious returns, you must shed the old ways and embrace the new strategies. That’s why Dave is outlining the ten strategies he would use to find hidden “upside” in the 2025 housing market and sharing how he’s doing it (right now!) with some of his properties.  In This Episode We Cover: Ten ways to unlock the hidden “upside” in your next real estate deal (make MORE money!)

If you hate the idea of having hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars in equity and six-figure passive cash flow in the not-so-far future, ignore the ten strategies we’re sharing today. When followed, these ten tactics will help you buy real estate deals with phenomenal “upside” potential in markets that most investors overlook but will WISH they bought in within a few years. Anyone can use this information to unlock the “upside” in whatever market they choose to invest in, but they aren’t obvious. You’ve probably been told the opposite of the advice we’ll give you today. But here’s the thing: the housing market has CHANGED. In 2025, those 2015 strategies will not work. To unlock the “upside” potential that will lead only savvy real estate investors to generational wealth, plentiful passive income, and serious returns, you must shed the old ways and embrace the new strategies. That’s why Dave is outlining the ten strategies he would use to find hidden “upside” in the 2025 housing market and sharing how he’s doing it (right now!) with some of his properties.  In This Episode We Cover: Ten ways to unlock the hidden “upside” in your next real estate deal (make MORE money!)

Stuck in an area with expensive housing prices or not-so-landlord-friendly laws but want to buy real estate? We’ve got you covered. We’re sharing our favorite 2025 real estate markets for rental property investing, many of which are so affordable even a real estate rookie will have no trouble buying in. But these aren’t just cheap markets; they all have strong fundamentals that drive appreciation and rising rents.  We brought the market-picking experts, Ashley Kehr and Henry Washington, back to the show to share their picks and see how they compare to Dave’s. We’ve got “sleeper” markets that are growing but fly under the radar, a new Midwest manufacturing hub that will soon become one of America’s most prized chip-building markets, and the next boom city with great jobs and even better cash flow. Then, we’ll share bonus affordable markets for those who don’t have much money to start. Got some more cash saved and looking to buy in a big city with big upside potential? We’re listing the three big cities we’d happily call home and invest in, with phenomenal housing market metrics and much more affordable prices than New York, Seattle, and the other “big” real estate markets.   In This Episode We Cover: The best rental property markets of 2025 that sport appreciation, cash flow, and affordable prices Why Henry thinks this “unsexy sleeper” market could be a phenomenal place to buy The chip-manufacturing Midwest market that could see massive growth One market with a booming economy but still very affordable home prices  The “big” cities we’d buy in that are poised for growth and home price appreciation  How to find the perfect market for YOU to invest in (free data on HUNDREDS of markets) And So Much More!

Big apartment owners have been decimated after their occupancy rates dropped, interest rates shot up, and loans got called due. But when prices fall and the masses turn away from an asset, it’s usually time to buy, and 2025 could be one of those times for commercial real estate. But YOU don’t have to be the one to go out and find the deal yourself, do all the renovations, and deal with tenants—you can invest all while someone else does it for you. That’s exactly what today’s guests, Jim Pfeifer and Paul Shannon from the PassivePockets podcast, are on to talk about. They see coming opportunities to invest in multifamily real estate deals passively and will teach you exactly how to do it. Both Jim and Paul previously owned rental properties but moved over to real estate syndications, a passive real estate investment, as they grew. Now, they can have someone else do all the work for them while they reap the benefits. The best part? 2025 is looking like an opportune time to get in on investments like these, as many of the inexperienced syndicators have fled the market. Still, the veterans remain, ready to buy underpriced assets and pass the profits on to you!  In This Episode We Cover: Why the historic commercial real estate crash could be close to over Real estate syndication investing 101 and how to invest without the stress of landlording Better, safer multifamily real estate deals that are coming to the market How to analyze a passive real estate investment AND the syndicator running it What to ask any syndicator before you invest in their deal (this is crucial) And So Much More!

Then, STOP buying rental properties. You heard that right; buying more rental properties may actually push you further away from early retirement IF you’ve crossed a certain threshold. Today’s guest proves you don’t need dozens of rental properties to reach financial freedom. Chad Carson, the “small and mighty” investor, is back to share why he scaled down his rental portfolio and now only works two hours a week because of it! Don’t know Chad? He’s the investor who did it right. After building a real estate business way too big for his liking, he and his partner thought, “Is this the life we dreamed of?” It wasn’t, so they began scaling down, only keeping the properties they loved and selling the rest. Now, Chad does what he wants full-time, including traveling the world and living abroad with his family, coaching other investors, and spending a fraction of his waking hours on his rental property portfolio. This is an investor who has actually retired early with real estate. Want to copy Chad’s blueprint to financial freedom in just ten to fifteen years? He’s sharing the three “phases” every investor goes through, including the most important one—the “harvesting” phase that allows you to retire early. How do you get to the “harvest” after all your hard work, and what should you do once you get there to unlock ultimate financial freedom? Chad is sharing it all, step-by-step, in this episode.  In This Episode We Cover: How to retire early with fewer rental properties than you’d think The three “phases” of financial freedom investing (and how long it’ll take to retire early) How to start building your real estate portfolio even if you have no money or experience  Why cash flow is far less important than you think when building a rental portfolio  Why Chad sells some of his successful rental properties to pay off others (this is a cheat code!)

Yes, and we have proof that real estate may be underpriced, even as we hover around the most expensive average home prices in history. How can real estate be undervalued when prices are at historic highs? Dave is sitting down with Scott Trench, CEO of BiggerPockets, who has condensed ten hours' worth of research into one episode to prove to you that, without a doubt, real estate will be winning over the next few years. Plus, he’s about to make a BIG financial bet on it. We’ve been talking a lot about entering the “upside” era recently—the new cycle of real estate investing—and wanted Scott’s take on it, too. He has invested in real estate for over a decade, reached financial independence through rental properties, and has been openly critical about multiple sectors of the real estate industry over the past few years.  Today, Scott makes a compelling case for real estate as a better investment than stocks, crypto, or gold.

Wondering whether you should get rid of your student loans before buying your next property? Maybe your market is too expensive, so is it time to go out of state instead? These are some of the most common questions we see on the BiggerPockets Forums, and today, we’re answering them so you can get to your next rental(s) faster, even if you’ve got debt and even if your home market is too expensive. First, we’re explaining when and why we buy properties without ever seeing them in real life. Isn’t that a huge risk? Yes—if you do it the wrong way. Next, should you invest out-of-state if your home market is too expensive, and if you decide to do so, what should you know BEFORE buying a property well outside driving distance? Want to scale faster? We’re discussing purchasing multiple rental properties a year and when it’s time to grow your real estate portfolio. Got student debt? You’re not alone! Henry had his student loans until recently and still heavily invested in real estate. But, if your interest rate crosses a certain threshold, we’d definitely recommend reconsidering real estate investing. Stay tuned; we’ll share when your debt is too much to invest.   Join BiggerPockets Momentum 2025 to supercharge your investing this year!  In This Episode We Cover: How to buy multiple rental properties a year and when it’s time to scale  Paying off debt vs. investing and whether six-figure student loans are stopping you Buying rentals sight unseen, the risks, and why we do it under certain circumstances Out-of-state investing 101 and signs it’s time to leave your home market to invest elsewhere Keeping vs. selling a negative cash-flowing rental property (and when to hold for equity) And So Much More!

Around a decade ago, it was common knowledge that with a few rental properties, you could easily replace your income, retire early, and be fast-tracked to financial independence within just three to five years of investing. Is that possible anymore? How long will financial independence actually take if you start investing in real estate in 2025? And if you feel like you’re almost there, should you quit your job and dive head first into real estate? We’ve got two financially free investors on the show, each taking different paths to get there. Dave kept his full-time W2 to pay for his more passive real estate investments, while Henry quit his job to buy rentals and flip houses full-time. Would they both be okay if they lost their “active” income today? Yes! But they STILL choose to work to build the dream life that goes far beyond basic financial freedom. Today, they’re sharing how the financial freedom formula has changed, what you need to do to get on the path to financial independence/early retirement in 2025, and whether you should stay at your W2 while you build your rental portfolio or quit your job to pursue real estate full-time. The good news: financial freedom through real estate is still a significantly quicker route to retirement, but which path will you choose to get there?  In This Episode We Cover: What “financial independence” really means and how long it will take for you to get there The cash flow myth that most new real estate investors believe (this could hurt you later!) Full-time real estate investing vs. keeping a nine-to-five and why you NEED “active” income to scale fast What to know about full-time real estate investing BEFORE you quit your job  And So Much More!

Are we closer to a recession than most Americans realize? Why does it feel like this economic cycle of high rates and a struggling middle class will never end? The biggest question is: What do all these factors mean for real estate, and should you still be investing? We brought on the man who literally wrote the book on Recession-Proof Real Estate Investing to give his 2025 outlook. J Scott has flipped over 500 homes, manages and owns thousands of rental units, and has been involved in tens of millions of dollars in real estate transactions. He started investing in 2008; he’s seen the worst of recessions and the highest of pricing peaks. We brought him back on the show as our industry expert to provide his time-tested take on what could happen in 2025 and share his economic framework for forecasting what’s coming next. J says we’re long overdue for a recession—and the red flags are popping up more frequently. While signs of a global recession loom, J explains what this means for mortgage rates and home prices and why now might still be the time to invest.  In This Episode We Cover: Why J believes we’re closer to a global recession than most people think New Trump presidential policies that could have huge impacts on inflation (and mortgage rates) Whether mortgage rates will stay in the seven percent range EVEN as the Fed lowers rates The broken economic “cycle” we find ourselves in and the only way to fix it  Could home prices correct/crash if mortgage rates finally do fall?

Many of you may have been waiting for a housing crash or correction. But where is it? In short, it never happened. Home prices kept climbing, rent prices finally stabilized, and mortgage rates stayed at eye-watering highs. What’s coming next for the 2025 housing market? Are things about to get better (or worse) for homebuyers and real estate investors? This is when Dave takes out his crystal ball (federal housing data and spreadsheets) to predict what’s to come in the new year. He’s giving his full forecast on three crucial topics, home prices, mortgage rates, and rent growth, and explaining his predictions and reasoning behind them. If Dave is correct, it may be a good year for real estate investing. Don’t believe us? Stick around! Coming up after this episode, Dave is piggybacking off of these predictions to show you why real estate could be the single greatest investment in the coming years. If you’re on the fence about buying a home or investing for the first time, this data-driven episode could get you out of analysis paralysis!  In This Episode We Cover: Why 2025 is already shaping up to be an excellent year for real estate investors and homeowners Dave’s 2025 mortgage rate range and whether we’ll see some interest rate relief The reason why home prices could still grow even with so many potential homebuyers sitting on the sidelines Are foreclosures and mortgage delinquencies a threat to the housing market?

We’ve got good news for you in today’s episode—it’s never too late for retirement (and even EARLY retirement!). No matter what age you’re at, how much you have in the bank, and how much you make, you CAN retire on your terms, and our guests will prove it. The question is, will you follow through on their time-tested system for reaching retirement? Bill Yount and Jackie Cummings Koski from the Catching Up to FI podcast are here to show you that whatever your situation is, you can get on track for retirement. Bill and Jackie both were late starters, only taking retirement seriously decades after starting their working careers. Even with their “late start,” Bill and Jackie were able to massively multiply their net worths and retirement savings, allowing them to reach financial freedom on their terms. In today’s show, Bill and Jackie walk through the four steps that anyone can take to begin saving for retirement. You don’t need ANY money to take these initial steps, but doing so will change your entire financial future. Stick around for our next show as we get into the nitty gritty of retirement planning and put you directly on the path to retirement or early retirement!  In This Episode We Cover: The four steps anyone can take to reach retirement Why it’s okay to be a “late starter,” especially when it comes to retirement planning How to do a “backward budget” to quickly and easily see how much you’re spending  Why you MUST look back on the financial “lessons” you’ve learned to build wealth now! Getting clear on your goals and what you want to achieve so you can reach retirement The “trifecta of mistakes” Bill made and how even that didn’t stop his financial freedom journey!

As in no tenants, toilets, phone calls, or painting! You can get genuinely passive income through one type of investment—real estate syndications. Never heard of them before? You’re about to have your world flipped upside down because today, Jim Pfeifer, host of PassivePockets: The Passive Real Estate Investing Show, is on to walk you through real estate syndications, even if you’re a complete beginner! Joining Jim is a long-time syndication investor and former professional football player (seriously!) Devon Kennard. Before syndications, Devon bought single-family homes during his NFL career, but as his time got increasingly limited, he needed a passive way to invest. The obvious choice? Real estate syndications!  Jim and Devon deliver a masterclass on syndication investing, showing you how much money you’ll need, how to vet a syndication deal BEFORE you invest, the profits you could make, and red flags to watch out for. If passive income is your goal, syndications are for you; here’s everything a beginner needs to know!  In This Episode We Cover: Real estate syndications explained and who should (and shouldn’t) invest in them The minimum investment amount for real estate syndications (lower than you’d think!) How to vet a syndicator (general partner) BEFORE you invest in their deal  Why many real estate investors ditch rentals for the passivity of syndications  Preferred returns, equity payouts, and other ways a syndication will make you money What Devon and Jim look for in a syndication before they invest any money  And So Much More!

You’re about to have your world flipped upside down because today, Jim Pfeifer, host of PassivePockets: The Passive Real Estate Investing Show, is on to walk you through real estate syndications, even if you’re a complete beginner! Joining Jim is a long-time syndication investor and former professional football player (seriously!) Devon Kennard. Before syndications, Devon bought single-family homes during his NFL career, but as his time got increasingly limited, he needed a passive way to invest. The obvious choice? Real estate syndications!  Jim and Devon deliver a masterclass on syndication investing, showing you how much money you’ll need, how to vet a syndication deal BEFORE you invest, the profits you could make, and red flags to watch out for. If passive income is your goal, syndications are for you; here’s everything a beginner needs to know!  In This Episode We Cover: Real estate syndications explained and who should (and shouldn’t) invest in them The minimum investment amount for real estate syndications (lower than you’d think!) How to vet a syndicator (general partner) BEFORE you invest in their deal  Why many real estate investors ditch rentals for the passivity of syndications  Preferred returns, equity payouts, and other ways a syndication will make you money What Devon and Jim look for in a syndication before they invest any money  And So Much More!

Then this is the show to listen to. We’ve had some phenomenal guests on the show this past year.

We’re in one of the wildest economic periods: mortgage rates are high, inflation has cooled, stock prices are hitting records, and the housing supply chain is slowing dramatically. What happens next? In short, something really, really good for real estate investors. And this isn’t hype—it’s precisely what the data points to.  Ben Miller, Fundrise CEO and one of our favorite macroeconomic experts, is back to break down his four data points that directly point to a win for real estate investors in 2025 and beyond. Answer this: what happens when housing supply is low, little to no new inventory is coming online, interest rates come back down, and everyone’s competing for homes? The answer: prices go up.  That reality is coming to fruition soon, and those who already own real estate are poised to reap significant profits. Those who sat on the sidelines will be forced to compete with other buyers as sky-high demand returns. But that’s not even Ben’s entire argument. He brings even MORE data to make the case for real estate in 2025—and it’s a case you shouldn’t ignore.  In This Episode We Cover: An expert’s case for real estate investing in 2025 and why it isn’t too late to get in Why commercial real estate could be close to the bottom (and be rebounding soon) The stock-to-real-estate correlation that BROKE last year (and what it means) The reason Ben believes new Trump tariffs could be good for homeowners and investors  Why the housing undersupply problem could get even worse in 2025, 2026  What happens when interest rates fall and demand for homes returns?  And So Much More!

Do you need an LLC to start investing in real estate, and will it help you buy more deals? Can you BRRRR (buy, rehab, rent, refinance, repeat) your primary residence to realize some serious home equity gains? We’re getting into these topics and more as we answer YOUR questions from the BiggerPockets Forums.  First, a seller has been presented with an interesting seller finance offer. Should they take it? How do they vet the buyer before giving them the house in exchange for monthly payments? We’ll explain when seller financing makes sense for sellers and how buyers can create compelling offers. Next, do one-bed, one-bath rentals do well, or are they too small for most areas?  How can you use your primary residence to build wealth without renting to tenants? We’re talking about the new BRRRR, or as Dave calls it, the LIFLOC (we’ll describe it in detail!). Do you need an LLC to invest? Most new investors get this totally wrong. Finally, why do investors and agents think so poorly of wholesalers? Do we ever use them? And how do you tell a good one from a bad one?  Looking to invest? Need answers?

We’re touching on the exact numbers you want to hear about—home prices, mortgage rates, home sales, rent prices, and housing supply. Knowing what’s coming could give you an edge as an investor, agent, or first-time homebuyer. First, we’re reviewing Redfin’s home price predictions for 2025. Will things get any more affordable, or will high home prices persist into 2025? Will mortgage rates finally reach the low sixes, maybe even into the high fives? Dave disagrees with Redfin’s take on interest rates, so where does he think they’ll be headed? If you’re a real estate agent, broker, loan officer, or in the industry, listen up! Redfin has some good news you want to hear about home sales! Renters and landlords, take note—Redfin’s predictions suggest rents could become more affordable for everyday Americans. But that’s not all; we’ll also review their housing inventory, agent commission, and migration predictions for 2025!  In This Episode We Cover: Redfin’s notable 2025 mortgage rate prediction that most homebuyers DON’T want to hear 2025 home price forecast and whether or not we’ll continue to see prices climb  The “step in the right direction” for home sales coming in 2025 Why homebuilders are getting bullish thanks to the 2024 Republican sweep  Why Gen Z may be the first generation to give up on homebuying  And So Much More!

($300K in Equity!)</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/should-i-sell-my-4-interest-rate-rental-property-300k-in-equity--75653605</link><description><![CDATA[Should you keep, refinance, or sell your rental property? If you’re sitting on a low mortgage rate and plenty of equity, you’ve probably asked yourself this once or twice within the past year. Most people who bought a rental property before 2020 have seen unprecedented appreciation and rock-bottom interest rates and are likely sitting on a war chest-sized home equity position. But that equity could be better spent investing in new properties than keeping your old ones. This is Dave’s exact predicament. He’s got a property he bought back in 2016 that has over $300,000 in home equity. It’s cash flowing a solid $500 per month with a mortgage rate of just under four percent, but only producing a measly two percent cash-on-cash return. He’s getting four times the return on his recent investment property purchases, so should he sell? Not so fast; we’re doing the math to figure out whether he should keep, refinance, sell, or change strategies on this property. Got the same good problem? Stick around as we even drop a fifth option most investors overlook entirely, which gives you the best of both worlds.   In This Episode We Cover: Whether to keep, refinance, or sell a low-performing rental property  The obvious problem with cash-out refinancing in 2024/2025  Why we DON’T love doing 1031 exchanges (and a tax-advantaged way around them)  Converting your long-term rental into a medium or short-term rental (MORE cash flow!)

Why does he think renting, NOT buying a house, makes more sense for most Americans in 2025? And what’s the one mistake that lost him hundreds of thousands of dollars even after being an experienced investor for decades? Jonathan Greene, one of our favorite repeat guests, is back on the show to share. Jonathan’s father, a serial real estate investor, taught him everything about rental properties early on. Together, they walked potential properties, snuck into foreclosed homes, reviewed the profits and figures line by line, and even dealt with evictions together. This equipped Jonathan with the skills to not only build generational wealth for his family but also financial freedom for himself. However, once he achieved it, Jonathan realized that early financial freedom wasn’t worth it. But why? This episode looks into the mind of one of the most experienced investors in the entire industry. Jonathan shares why he still decided to work even after building a real estate portfolio, the investment he made that cost him severely, why he’s moving his money into a more “passive” investment, the reason renting makes MORE sense than buying in 2025, and what a beginner should do RIGHT NOW to start investing in real estate.  In This Episode We Cover: The reason Jonathan says early retirement/financial freedom is a mistake  One thing every beginner to real estate investing should be doing right now  Jonathan’s huge loss and the lessons he learned about pricing yourself too high Renting vs. buying and the obvious choice for most Americans in 2025 What to teach your kids about real estate investing and generational wealth And So Much More!

We’re not talking about taking an interest-free loan from your mom; we mean using “private money” to finance your investment. This type of investment property financing is usually reserved for the more experienced investors, but is it a bad idea for someone with such little experience? Is there another way to finance your first deal that gives you more wiggle room if you make a mistake? This is just one of the BiggerPockets Forum questions we’re answering today from investors like you. One investor on her second rental wants to know whether bankruptcy or late payments is an immediate red flag in a tenant application. She’s struggling to fill up her property, so should she take on a tenant with sub-optimal finances? What do you do when you inherit a tenant paying substantially under-market rent? How do you raise rents the right way? Finally, Henry the house flipper shares his thoughts on the 70% rule and gives his own house-flipping formula you can perform on the spot to see if your deal is a steal! Looking to invest? Need answers? Ask your question on the BiggerPockets Forums!  In This Episode We Cover: Whether you should or shouldn’t borrow private money for your first real estate deal Tenant red flags and what to do when you’re struggling to fill a vacancy  Raising rents on inherited tenants and why we DON’T ask for market rates  How to attract better tenants to your rental property (and whether to lower the price) Henry’s house-flipping formula that beats the 70% rule calculation And So Much More!

Mid-term rentals, also called medium-term rentals or MTRs, are thirty-day or longer stays, usually for traveling professionals or those who need temporary housing while relocating. These rentals give you more rent than a regular long-term rental, less turnover than short-term rentals, and can be successful in even the most average of markets. Where are MTRs heading next? We brought on Jeff Hurst, CEO of the leading MTR listing website Furnished Finder, to share the data he’s seeing. Jeff believes MTRs are still years away from peaking in demand and supply. But maybe he’s a little biased as someone who works in the field. Even as an industry insider, Jeff brought some solid stats that show that MTR is far from falling off the investing map. He’s so bullish on this strategy that he believes MTR is now where Airbnb was in 2012. But what should you do to get in on MTR investing? Jeff shares the best MTR markets and signs for whether or not your city could be a great place to try it, plus the surprising property type that works best for this strategy (MUCH more affordable than short-term rentals) and how landlords and investors can find tenants WITHOUT going through pricey booking platforms.  In This Episode We Cover: The state of the mid-term rental market and why it’s looking much brighter than short-term rentals Mid-term rental investing explained, and who’s staying at these properties Why rural markets actually make terrific mid-term rental investing areas How to start investing in mid-term rentals WITHOUT owning a single property (rental arbitrage) How to find tenants for your mid-term rentals without paying high listing fees The (surprisingly) small property types that work best for mid-term rentals And So Much More!

They either think it’s a completely hands-off investment like stocks or that all turnkey real estate companies offer the same product. Both of these assumptions can be dangerous when investing in what should be an easier, less stressful, and far more scalable type of real estate investment—turnkey rentals. If you invest in truly turnkey real estate, you’ll get all the benefits of regular rental properties with MANY of the headaches already dealt with. What do we mean? We’re bringing back repeat guest Chris Clothier, turnkey provider and investor for over twenty years, to explain exactly what turnkey real estate is and whether or not it’s right for you. Chris describes the danger of thinking that every “turnkey” company is actually turnkey and signs that the company you’re dealing with could be selling you a bad deal.

We’re sharing those stats and the two questions you MUST ask a turnkey company before you work with them!  In This Episode We Cover: Turnkey real estate investing explained and why so many investors get this definition wrong  How much turnkey rentals can make you in 2025 (actual return estimates)  The two questions you MUST ask a turnkey provider to prove they’re legit  Signs of a good turnkey real estate deal and why you should NOT buy properties under a certain price point  Why turnkey real estate investing isn’t just for beginners  And So Much More!

Of course you would! And that’s exactly what David Lecko, CEO of DealMachine, suggests you do to find better real estate deals in 2025. After hundreds of calls and mailers, an extensive rehab, and two appraisals, he walked into six-figure equity on a single rental property! Welcome back to the BiggerPockets Real Estate podcast! David has achieved financial freedom by building a real estate portfolio of nineteen cash-flowing, appreciating properties. His big secret? Buying the same property over and over in a market he knows inside out—Indianapolis, Indiana. He’ll scour tax-delinquent lists for distressed properties that fit his buy box and use the BRRRR method (buy, rehab, rent, refinance, repeat) to snowball into his next deal. But now that David has moved to Austin, Texas, he faces a brand-new challenge—investing in real estate out of state. While most investors would hire a property manager to oversee their properties, David self-manages from hundreds of miles away and employs an assistant to be his eyes and ears. Tune in as David shares all of the details on his latest deal and the strategies investors can use to gain a competitive edge in 2025!  In This Episode We Cover: The strategy David used to make $100,000 on ONE real estate deal How to self-manage your rental properties (from hundreds of miles away) Why the BRRRR method (buy, rehab, rent, refinance, repeat) still works today How to scale faster and make higher returns by staying within your buy box The midwestern markets that allow you to earn cash flow and appreciation Why you shouldn’t wait for interest rates to drop to buy your next property And So Much More!

Many Americans are critical of the Fed’s move to raise interest rates sharply, pause for years, and then slowly start implementing rate cuts. The arguably most prominent critic of the Fed? President-Elect Donald Trump, who, shortly after nominating the current Fed chair, Jerome Powell, reversed his opinion on whether Powell was the right person for the job. Now, with Trump coming back to the White House, Powell’s job hangs in jeopardy—or does it? Can a President fire the Fed chair? Does the President have the authority to influence how the Fed operates? What would happen if Trump decided to go after Powell and request his resignation? Nick Timiraos, reporter at The Wall Street Journal and Federal Reserve expert, is on to answer these questions. Nick gives us the latest update on rate cuts, where the Fed is headed, how the future of the Fed looks with Trump back in office, and why some politicians champion “Fed Independence,” while others argue that Fed power has overstepped its bounds. Are Trump and Powell more aligned than they think, and is this government drama all talk? We’re getting Nick’s expert viewpoint on it all.   In This Episode We Cover: Why “Fed Independence” could actually be a crucial piece to keeping the economy stable  Whether or not Trump has the authority to fire and replace a Fed chair  Future rate cuts, inflation concerns, and the Fed’s latest “signal” on rates  Powell’s simple response when asked if he would resign because of Trump’s request  Why the Fed does NOT have to answer to the President (and is this a good thing?) Trump’s proposed tax and tariff policies and why they could challenge the Fed And So Much More!  Links from the Show Join BiggerPockets for FREE Let Us Know What You Thought of the Show!

Many Americans are critical of the Fed’s move to raise interest rates sharply, pause for years, and then slowly start implementing rate cuts. The arguably most prominent critic of the Fed? President-Elect Donald Trump, who, shortly after nominating the current Fed chair, Jerome Powell, reversed his opinion on whether Powell was the right person for the job. Now, with Trump coming back to the White House, Powell’s job hangs in jeopardy—or does it? Can a President fire the Fed chair? Does the President have the authority to influence how the Fed operates? What would happen if Trump decided to go after Powell and request his resignation? Nick Timiraos, reporter at The Wall Street Journal and Federal Reserve expert, is on to answer these questions. Nick gives us the latest update on rate cuts, where the Fed is headed, how the future of the Fed looks with Trump back in office, and why some politicians champion “Fed Independence,” while others argue that Fed power has overstepped its bounds. Are Trump and Powell more aligned than they think, and is this government drama all talk? We’re getting Nick’s expert viewpoint on it all.   In This Episode We Cover: Why “Fed Independence” could actually be a crucial piece to keeping the economy stable  Whether or not Trump has the authority to fire and replace a Fed chair  Future rate cuts, inflation concerns, and the Fed’s latest “signal” on rates  Powell’s simple response when asked if he would resign because of Trump’s request  Why the Fed does NOT have to answer to the President (and is this a good thing?) Trump’s proposed tax and tariff policies and why they could challenge the Fed And So Much More!  Links from the Show Join BiggerPockets for FREE Let Us Know What You Thought of the Show!

Imagine it. You may have a high-stress job where you’re working long hours and making good money but feeling burnout creeping in. You NEED an exit strategy if you’re going to keep up with this lifestyle because before long, you may need an early retirement. That’s precisely how Benjamin Aaker, emergency medicine physician, felt. Benjamin loves his work, and he’s still working today, but now, he has the option to leave when the burnout gets too much. After becoming an “accidental landlord,” Benjamin quickly saw the benefits of investing in real estate. He bought a few more houses and a multifamily building, then went bigger and bigger. Now, he’s equity-rich with a real estate portfolio that can support his lifestyle if he decides not to work. Even if you’re not stressed out at your job (yet), Benjamin encourages you to financially prepare to exit your career, if just for peace of mind. He talks about how you can scale smarter, faster, and better with partners, why sometimes you need to get dirty to succeed in real estate, and how to juggle investing with your full-time job.   In This Episode We Cover:  How to scale your real estate portfolio fast and reach financial freedom  The crucial mistake Benjamin made when he bought his first big property  Determining your financial independence timeline and when you want to be able to quit  Appreciation vs. cash flow and the surprising choice Benjamin made to reach financial independence faster  Vetting a real estate partner BEFORE you invest and red flags to look for Syndication investing for beginners and using other people’s money to buy real estate  And So Much More!

How much of a return should your investment property be producing? Are real estate returns good enough in this tough housing market to beat out other performing assets like stocks? Today, we’re sharing our exact investing criteria, defining what makes a “good” real estate deal to us, and how you can use key indicators to identify deals worth the effort. We’re breaking this episode into a few parts as we touch on the primary types of investment properties: long-term rentals, short-term rentals, and house flips. Garrett Brown is our resident vacation rental expert and shares how he’s routinely getting twenty percent (or greater) returns by reinvesting in his short-term rentals. Next, familiar face James Dainard discusses the unbelievable house-flipping returns he nets, but are they worth the risk? Finally, Dave shares the metric he goes after when investing in long-term, low-risk rental properties. Plus, we’ll share when it’s a better use of your money to reinvest in your current properties vs. going out and buying new ones!  In This Episode We Cover: What makes a “good” real estate deal in 2025 and beyond The massive return James is making with house flipping (and the HUGE risks he takes) Garrett’s unique short-term rentals pulling in twenty percent (or higher!) average returns  IRR (internal rate of return) explained and why everyone should calculate this when investing When to buy more properties vs. reinvest back into your performing portfolio And So Much More!

It’s not through cold calling homeowners, sending mailers, networking with wholesalers, or doing any other “off-market” strategy. It’s so easy that even real estate investing beginners will have no trouble finding deals. What are we talking about? On-market, MLS (multiple listing service) properties for sale. You might think, “But everything on the market is overpriced; there are NO good deals left!” That’s where you’re wrong, and today’s guest proves it. Dan Nelson has been buying on-market investment properties for two decades now, and he’s built an entire portfolio doing so (even in recent years). Dan knows there’s a time and place for off-market deals, but he has found so many hidden opportunities on the market that he keeps returning to buy. During this episode, Dan shows YOU precisely what to look for when browsing listing websites for rental properties or potential house flips. He shares the hidden opportunities most investors miss and why you should NOT be focused on properties that make money from day one. Instead, he walks through his simple strategy to create serious cash flow only a couple of years after purchasing properties most investors overlook.  In This Episode We Cover: Why (for the most part) off-market deals are NOT great for beginners  The reason Dan doesn’t care about “day one cash flow” when buying rentals  Signs that you should offer a lower price on a potential rental property  Why you should always look for on-market deals BEFORE deciding on a market  When it’s time to start buying off-market deals (Beginners should avoid this)  And So Much More!

He’s bought five rental properties, completed multiple flips, and done it all in the past fifteen months with high mortgage rates. To make it more impressive, he did it WITHOUT a W2 job at just twenty-three years old! So what sets Clay apart from ninety-nine percent of other investors? As you’ll hear in today’s episode, he went through an almost comical amount of failures, but how he solved them makes him an elite investor. If you think you missed the boat on real estate investing, Clay proves that you couldn’t be more wrong. He not only built an entire rental portfolio in one of the most challenging times to invest but did it with no consistent income, no experience, and in a market you’ve probably never heard of. If you can follow Clay’s advice, mimic his ingenuity and tenacity for problem-solving, and are willing to put up with small failures to achieve massive success, you, too, will be able to build serious wealth, no matter your timeline, no matter your age, and no matter your job.

He’s bought five rental properties, completed multiple flips, and done it all in the past fifteen months with high mortgage rates. To make it more impressive, he did it WITHOUT a W2 job at just twenty-three years old! So what sets Clay apart from ninety-nine percent of other investors? As you’ll hear in today’s episode, he went through an almost comical amount of failures, but how he solved them makes him an elite investor. If you think you missed the boat on real estate investing, Clay proves that you couldn’t be more wrong. He not only built an entire rental portfolio in one of the most challenging times to invest but did it with no consistent income, no experience, and in a market you’ve probably never heard of. If you can follow Clay’s advice, mimic his ingenuity and tenacity for problem-solving, and are willing to put up with small failures to achieve massive success, you, too, will be able to build serious wealth, no matter your timeline, no matter your age, and no matter your job.

What should you do? The good news is that even if you don’t know how to invest in real estate, you can get started relatively quickly, especially if you avoid the common rookie mistakes. To help you jump over the investing hurdles, instead of running right into them, Dave brought on Tony Robinson, top short-term rental investor, and Henry Washington, repeat co-host and long-term rental investor, to share exactly what they’d do if they were starting from scratch in 2025. Both Henry and Tony have scaled very fast. They own seven-figure real estate portfolios producing hundreds of thousands in rent yearly. But neither of them has been investing for more than ten years. How did they scale their real estate portfolios so quickly? They learned from their mistakes FAST and are teaching you the same lessons on today’s show. In this episode, we’re going through the beginner steps you should take to build a real estate portfolio starting in 2025. We’ll discuss whether you should buy long-term or short-term rentals, how to choose a market to invest in, knowing how much you can afford, the many ways to find real estate deals, and the one thing Henry and Tony WISHED they had done earlier. Ready to start investing in 2025? This is your quick guide!  In This Episode We Cover: Best beginner real estate investments and whether you should buy or build your first rental What to do when you don’t have tons of money to invest and how to calculate your buying power How to find real estate deals even if you’re low on time or money The one thing Henry and Tony advise every rookie real estate investor to start doing NOW Emergency reserves and why you must keep cash on you when you start investing And So Much More!

(We Found Some)</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/can-you-still-find-on-market-cash-flowing-rentals-in-2024-we-found-some--75653636</link><description><![CDATA[Can you invest in real estate with just $75,000? And not only invest but can you find cash-flowing rentals in solid markets with long-term profit potential without spending six figures? Yes, to both. Today, we’re proving it’s more than possible because we’re finding on-market rental properties for sale that can be bought, renovated, and rented with a $75,000 (or less) investment. These are LIVE deals, meaning you could make an offer on them right after this podcast airs (seriously!). To help us out, Dave asked fellow investors Ashley Kehr and Henry Washington to bring a deal to the show that: 1. Has an all-in cost of $75,000 or less 2. Is on-market (on the MLS) 3. Isn’t a house hack (you don’t have to live in the property). Dave found his own deal and brought it along, too. So today, we’re sharing three actual deals in three solid real estate markets, all that you can invest in with $75,000 or less. We found rental properties that not only cash flow hundreds of dollars a month but come close to (or beat) the 1% rule, AND one is already renovated, meaning you just need to find renters, and you’re already making money. Don’t let the naysayers fool you—this is PROOF you can find good rental properties even in 2024.   In This Episode We Cover: How to invest $75,000 in real estate if you want cash-flowing rental properties  Three distinct real estate markets that all offer below-average rental property prices  How much to keep in cash reserves for your first investment property  “Value-add” potential you can spot that’ll help you boost equity in your property  The one cost that you really need to check before you buy in a new market  Key indicators that point to a real estate market growing (or slowing)  And So Much More!

Our guest is using zoning laws to his favor by finding areas with hidden potential but NO space left to build. He then changes the zoning, builds new homes, and sells them FAST (and often over-asking price) to the local buyers waiting in line for inventory to arrive. You can do it, too, but you’ll need some beginner information before you start. Since 2016, Stuart Udis has been building homes in areas most investors overlook. The average investor sees an area with growing demand but realizes that they can’t build a home because a piece of land may NOT allow residential units, so they give up. Stuart instead gets both the city AND the local residents on his side, having all parties favor a zoning change, helping him be the only investor to build on that once-overlooked piece of land. So how do YOU do this, too? In this episode, Stuart walks through how he finds hidden opportunities in often-overlooked neighborhoods, the groups you’ll have to meet with before you try to change the zoning, and the types of units he’s building that give him the highest return on his money.  In This Episode We Cover: Why “rezoning” property might be one of the most overlooked investing strategies  The big cash flow mistake that Stuart made earlier on in his investing career  The #1 reason you must look into school districts BEFORE buying in an area  Getting approval for rezoning from the city and the neighbors you MUST get on your side  How to tell exactly what a buyer/renter will want BEFORE you rezone/build  And So Much More!

Other times, it’s NOT fun to be a real estate investor. While the pros, like financial freedom, generational wealth, and passive income definitely outweigh the cons, there are times when real estate investing makes you sit back and think, “Wow, I’m not having fun right now.” So we’re here to vent some of our biggest frustrations about the real estate industry, and if you’re an investor, landlord, house flipper, or property manager, you’ll probably relate.  These are the things that grind our gears the MOST. Now we’re not saying to ditch rental properties and real estate investing because of these downsides. Despite all these investment property pains, we still believe real estate is the best asset class for investing. But you will be hit with the headaches that we go through if you decide to invest. The good news? We will give you actionable tips to avoid the worst of these throughout the episode. If you’re brand new to real estate investing or are thinking of buying your first property, this is advice you need to hear before you begin so you can make the most money with the least amount of stress.   In This Episode We Cover: Why you really (really) don’t need to become an agent just to invest in real estate  Getting blinded by “exit strategies” and how it’ll cost you in the long run How Henry learned to work with contractors so he doesn’t get scammed or ghosted Why we’re begging you to stop doing “virtual staging” when selling a house  Etiquette for agents writing property descriptions (stop saying everything is “cozy”) How to improve your relationship with your tenants so you both can enjoy your lives  And So Much More!

Even with home sales falling by a massive margin, home prices are still at all-time highs, and the housing market is “stuck,” but we could see some sellers taking price cuts this winter if you’re willing to take advantage. Okay, but how can home prices still be THIS high when the total home sales are twenty percent lower than average and around fifty percent under the recent highs? It’s simple—affordability struggles. High rates, high prices, and “locked-in” homeowners staying in place keep the market frozen. So, why does Dave believe sellers will be more inclined to drop their prices this winter? Where does he believe interest rates will be by the end of the year? And what’s the one thing that could get the housing market “unstuck”?   In This Episode We Cover: Why Dave believes real estate deals are coming THIS winter  Mortgage rate predictions and how low rates could go by the end of this year Whether to buy now or wait for affordability to improve, prices to drop, and rates to fall  Why home prices are still rising EVEN with homebuyer demand plummeting  The MASSIVE drop in home sales since the pandemic boom and why prices have remained high  And So Much More!

They didn’t start with a ton of money and only got into investing together in 2021 when housing competition was high, and rates were soon to rise sharply. So, how does their strategy work, and how can YOU use it to buy more rental properties? In this episode, these innovative investors, Joe Escamilla and Sam Farman, talk about why it’s CRUCIAL to have great real estate investing partners and how choosing the right one can be the rocket fuel you need to build a financial freedom-enabling rental property portfolio. They share the new “BRRRR” strategy (buy, rehab, rent, refinance, repeat) they’re using to get steady real estate cash flow AND boost their equity at the same time.  We’ll also talk about raising private capital and creating your own real estate syndication so you can buy more real estate using other people’s money and pass along the returns to your investors. Joe and Sam have built a real estate portfolio most investors can only dream of achieving, and they did it all in only three years, during high rates, and while working full-time jobs. Stick around to hear how you can do it, too!   In This Episode We Cover: The new-and-improved “BRRRR” strategy that lets you “recycle” your money  Signs of a perfect real estate partner and why getting this right is CRUCIAL for growth  Cash-out refinancing to reinvest in real estate and grow your portfolio faster  Why you DON’T want to sit on the sidelines while rates are high and competition is low Syndications and how to raise money for your next real estate deal  And So Much More!

For the past few decades, mainstream real estate investing platforms have almost forgotten this region, and we’ve even overlooked it a few times. Here, landlords can buy affordable homes, make serious cash flow, and see significant investing advantages they can’t get in most other areas. Where are we talking about? Salt Lake? The Great Lakes? Lake Tahoe? Welcome back to this week’s BiggerNews, where we’re discussing everyone’s favorite subject—cash flow (and a LOT of it). We brought Real Estate Rookie co-host Ashley Kehr, a predominantly cash-flow investor, to the show to share why her home region is finally getting the recognition it deserves for real estate investing. If you want the residual income that will lead you to financial freedom and an early retirement, this is the region to look at. You can buy homes for a fraction of what they cost elsewhere, all while getting surprisingly high rent prices, leaving you with a serious supply of cash flow at the end of the month. We’re talking about the MOST affordable cities in this area, why the tech industry is moving in, and one crucial advantage that makes this market almost future-proof.   In This Episode We Cover: “Lake Effect” cash flow and why it’s making landlords wealthy in this affordable area  The most affordable (and cash-flowing) markets in this under-the-radar region Why more and more tech companies are moving into this overlooked area  Appreciation potential and the cities with cash flow AND rising home prices  The “booming” area that has serious infrastructure support for more jobs/businesses  And So Much More!

After the Fed’s big rate cut last month, mortgage rates did the unexpected…they went UP. But, even with these slightly inflated rates, now is looking like a good time to refinance if you bought a home with a higher interest rate. So, should you take the risk of waiting for mortgage rates to drop or lock in these substantially lower rates now? We don’t know what will happen next, so we brought on veteran lender Caeli Ridge to answer some of our more nuanced questions. Caeli summarizes where rates were, where they are today, and where they could be headed. If you want to know what refinance and HELOC (home equity line of credit) rates are right now, stay tuned because she shares exactly what her clients are getting. What about paying no or low interest on your next HELOC? Caeli shares what may be the greatest HELOC hack we’ve ever heard of—one that gives you lots of liquidity while keeping your interest payments at the absolute rock bottom. You may have never heard of anything like it, so don’t miss this one!  In This Episode We Cover: Where mortgage rates are right now for refinances and HELOCs The HELOC hack that greatly minimizes your interest in your next equity line  Caeli’s interest rate forecast and where she thinks rates could be in the near future  When waiting to refinance could cost you, and whether rates may go UP again  The metrics that influence where mortgage rates will go next (what to pay attention to) And So Much More!

Now, imagine you could do it all in just two years. Sounds impossible, right? Today’s guest did precisely that, with more barriers than most. Jon Boyd left his W2 job to pursue real estate investing full-time, all while having to provide for his family of six! Now, he’s making much more than his job ever paid him and is building serious wealth in the process. How’s he doing it? It’s simple: direct-to-seller strategies anyone can try.  Unlike many real estate investors, Jon skipped heavily investing during the 2010s, so his wealth is NOT due to the rapid appreciation of 2020 - 2023. As his W2 whittled him down day by day, Jon knew he needed an exit option. So, he tried one simple direct-to-seller marketing strategy, found a great deal, made a serious profit, and decided, “Let’s go ALL-IN!”  Now, just a few years later, he’s a full-time real estate investor, doing over a dozen house flips in a year, with a portfolio of five rental properties, and making MUCH more than his job was paying. The best part? He does almost all of it himself, and if you’re willing to push past your comfort zone, you can, too!  In This Episode We Cover: The one direct-to-seller marketing strategy Jon uses to find off-market, undervalued deals How to plan your financial safety nets when quitting your job for real estate  How to talk to a potential seller so they feel comfortable giving you the deal  The one thing you should do before you quit your job (or you’ll regret it!)

We mean the areas nobody knew about until it was too late. The neighborhoods that seem to jump in price overnight, and everyone ends up saying, “I should have bought there when I had the chance!” What if there was a way to easily identify WHICH areas are in the “path of progress” and could make you serious wealth IF you buy today? We brought in an expert with two decades of experience picking these markets. James Dainard is a rental property investor, house flipper, private money lender, and every other role you can think of in real estate. He’s been investing primarily in one market for his entire career: Seattle, Washington. But, even though he’s sticking to this specific market, he’s diversified by having investments all around the entire metro area, even in places most people wouldn’t DARE to buy in. Today, he’s sharing his secrets, showcasing precisely what he looks at to identify these hidden but growing real estate areas WITHIN a market. We’ll discuss whether you should focus on the deal or the neighborhood first, “clues” that point to a solid investing area, why zoning will become your wealth-building best friend, and how to identify markets with solid cash flow or appreciation.   In This Episode We Cover: The “clues” that point to a rising real estate area most people DON’T know about yet Whether to choose a neighborhood FIRST or evaluate a deal based on its neighborhood  The magic of “upzoning” and how James uses this to boost his portfolio’s worth  The “path of progress” that will have your home value rising FAR faster than others  What to be cautious of when investing in a new area (these could ruin your real estate deal) Data sources you can use right now to pinpoint exactly where to buy And So Much More!

You know you need money for a down payment, skills to manage tenants/perform renovations, and time to find the deals in the first place. But what if you only have one of these? Can you still invest in real estate even without the missing pieces? Today, we’re going to show you how to do just that, no matter how much time, money, or real estate experience you’ve got.  We’re walking through three scenarios with three different investors: Dave Meyer (who had no money/experience), Devon Kennard (who had money but no time/experience), and Tyler Madden (who had skills but limited time/money). Each of these investors was able to build a successful real estate portfolio, all while either being time-stretched, money-stretched, or not knowing how to swing a hammer. They’re sharing the secrets to hiring out/building the other skills so you CAN take down real estate deals, no matter what you’re working with. If you can combine all the pieces of this “resource triangle,” you have FAR higher chances of succeeding in real estate investing and reaching financial freedom. If you’re a rookie with no real estate to your name, worry not—we’re teaching you what you need to know in today’s episode.   In This Episode We Cover: The “resource triangle” investing theory and the three things you need to succeed (YOU don’t need all three!)  The most overrated skills in real estate that you can survive without  Building a team and hiring out/outsourcing the resources that you lack  How to start investing if you ONLY have time, money, OR real estate experience  Crucial skills that we WISH we had (you can make a LOT more money with these)  And So Much More!

For many, it’s “value-add” real estate investing. You might know what this is, but you may have never heard the term before. Value-add investing is when you buy investment properties, improve them, increase the cash flow, equity, or both, and reap the rewards by holding onto them as rentals or flipping them for quick cash. Today’s investor, Tom Shallcross, is doing just this, but he’s making BIG returns (six figures on flips!) and funneling those profits into his sizable rental portfolio. And he’s doing it all in 2024. We know that everyone has told you how impossible it is to invest in real estate in 2024, but Tom instantly proves the naysayers wrong. Not only is he flipping houses, but he’s also buying rentals, BRRRRing (buy, rehab, rent, refinance, repeat), and doing it all in a competitive market—Chicago! So what’s he doing differently? Tom gets the deals before the rest of the investors in his area can, takes on BIG house flips that most investors are too scared to, and constantly reinvests the profits into more real estate. He’s been doing it since 2016 and is STILL finding success in today’s market. How’s he getting the best deals sent to him? How’s he making such large profit margins? We’re uncovering his exact strategy and method in today’s episode.   In This Episode We Cover: “Value-add” real estate investing explained and why it still works in 2024 Knowing your neighborhood “class” and why Tom switched from C to A How Tom is making six-figure profits on house flips even in today’s market  Real estate partnerships and the skillsets you need to build a profitable flipping/rental/rehab business  How to get real estate agents to send you properties BEFORE they hit the market  Using short-term projects (flips!) to fund your rental property portfolio  And So Much More!

A few years ago, buyers were fighting tooth and nail to purchase properties in Austin, Boise, Phoenix, and other red-hot markets. Demand was growing in these cities, and prices were shooting up with no end in sight. But then…it stopped. Prices started declining, vacancy rose, and investors were stuck holding onto properties now worth less than what they paid. The interesting part? These market declines might be only temporary, and those who don’t buy now could be kicking themselves a few years down the road. To give us insight into which boomtowns are worth buying in and which are worth ignoring is Matt Faircloth, multifamily real estate investor. He saw many investors rush to these real estate boomtowns during the peak and are now struggling to fill their rental units as the boom became a bust. He’s identified a sneaky strategy that allows you to buy properties at a discount in these markets to make money while the FOMO investors search for an exit option. We’ll talk about the cities with the most hype, the ones worth investing in, the future boomtowns that most are ignoring, and the massive opportunity of “economic spillover” that could lead you to markets with the best future potential.  In This Episode We Cover: The future “boomtowns” that most investors have no clue about (get in early) How boomtowns form and what to look at to tell if one is worth investing in  When is it too late to invest in a growing city (metrics to check before buying) The secondary markets with “economic spillover” boasting huge opportunity The sneaky move Matt is using to buy boomtown properties at a discount  What to do if you bought in a boomtown that is already declining  And So Much More!

A run-in with Rich Dad Poor Dad prompted her to begin saving so she could start buying rental properties. She called her lender, found a property, and spent her and her husband's entire savings on the down payment. Little did she know that this one decision would set her life’s course in an entirely different direction. Now, just seven years after first looking into real estate investing, Deba has thirty rental properties and doesn’t work at her W2 anymore! How did she do it so fast, especially with kids to care for, bills to pay, and no prior experience in real estate investing? One BAD piece of beginner advice could have thrown her entire investing career off track, but she quickly learned from her mistake and leveled up at light speed! Deba is sharing how she went from real estate investing zero to hero, doing everything from BRRRR (buy, rehab, rent, refinance, repeat) investing, building new construction rental properties, flipping houses, and becoming an agent herself to help other investors. Want to escape the nine-to-five grind and get on the fast track to financial freedom? Do it all like Deba!  In This Episode We Cover: The one critical mistake Deba made on her second deal that could have cost her severely The truth about becoming a real estate agent (and why it isn’t as easy as you think) Regular realtors vs. investor-friendly realtors (you CANNOT mix them up!) When it’s time to quit your job and become a full-time real estate investor Why Deba is still buying in a market that is seeing price declines in 2024 The massive benefits of new construction rental properties (and why they make sense in 2024) And So Much More!

But, with mortgage interest rates lowering right before our eyes, we’re noticing something peculiar—affordability isn’t improving. Home prices are staying stagnant, if not rising. Thanks to America’s “golden handcuffs,” we’re still in a housing market standoff, but there might be some solutions to fix it. We’re bringing on The New York Times’ Rukmini Callimachi, a real estate correspondent, to shed light on the vast affordability crisis affecting America. With homes “unmanageably expensive,” regardless of whether you’re renting or buying, we need solutions that don’t just spark up demand (like lowering mortgage rates). There’s one glaring problem plaguing the property market, but why won’t anybody fix it? Today, we're cracking this discussion wide open, speaking on the solutions that could ACTUALLY increase affordability in the future, the rising homelessness problem affecting working Americans and students, and how NIMBYism (not in my backyard) could be forcefully put to stop as communities struggle to build enough housing. If you want to get in (or get back in) the real estate game, whether as an investor, house hacker, or first-time homebuyer, these solutions could directly affect you!  In This Episode We Cover: Housing inventory update and the “golden handcuffs” keeping housing constrained  Why homebuyers are stuck and the magic interest rate that could unlock demand  The root of our housing problems and what we must do NOW to fix it  Growing homelessness (even among working adults) and why housing costs have gotten too high  Modular home building and how this new type of construction could change the housing market forever  And So Much More!

It’s allowed him to become such an investing expert that he’s constantly being asked for his opinion on the BiggerPockets forums, and he provides some of the most well-thought-out investing advice on the internet.

Since so many previously “cash-flowing” markets have seen rising prices, higher expenses, and limited housing inventory, we went back to the drawing board to reevaluate which markets in the United States offer the most cash flow potential. Today, we share these markets and hone in on two specific ones with real-life on-market examples to prove that cash flow is still possible. But before we get into that, we’re sharing the cash flow formula even beginners can use to quickly calculate whether a rental property will cash flow. Then, we describe what type of cash-on-cash return WE target in today’s market and list some of the most cash-flowing markets of 2024. Want to see real cash-flowing rental property examples? We’re hopping over to BiggerPockets Deal Finder as we quickly analyze two separate rental properties in two cash-flowing markets to prove that these properties do sport some serious cash flow. Don’t believe us? Head over to BiggerPockets Market Finder, where you can see the nation’s top rent-to-price investing areas (that’s where the cash flow is!).   In This Episode We Cover: Two cities that have cash-flowing rental properties for sale RIGHT NOW Precisely how to calculate cash flow for rental properties (and why most investors do this wrong) The optimal cash-on-cash return we target that properties must meet before we bid on them The 1% rule explained and whether or not it’s still worth using in 2024 When to sell a cash-flowing rental, even if it’s making you mailbox money every month  And So Much More!

What used to be someone setting up a tent and potentially a portable toilet for guests looking to get into nature has now become a full-blown luxury business that travelers will pay good money to get a taste of. One large glamping property allowed today’s investor, Garrett Brown, to replace his music producer job and reach levels of success most short-term rental investors can only dream of. Garrett owns a ten-acre piece of land in a lake town outside Houston, Texas. Even though many non-Texans won’t be familiar with the area, local travelers flock to it to escape the big city. Since buying the property, Garrett has made some serious expansions, such as building cabins (and even geo-domes) with WiFi, running water, and the creature comforts many of us don’t want to live without. Plus, Garrett is doing it all while getting most of his bookings directly from social media. That’s right, he has (mostly) cut out Airbnb and other middlemen booking platforms, so he keeps much more of the profit and even gets his guests to upgrade with “add-on packages” that make the deal even sweeter. You can do it, too, but you’ll need to hear how Garrett does it in this episode!  In This Episode We Cover: Why “glamping” has become such a popular (and profitable) version of short-term rental investing The “sixty-thirty-ten” rule that helps you identify the best areas for short-term rentals  Leaving your career to build income streams that don’t take up all of your time How to get seventy to eighty percent of your guest bookings through direct booking Why you should offer your guests “add-on packages” that help make YOU more revenue The reason you should “start small” when building out your glamping sites And So Much More!

Will we continue to see slow (or no) rent price growth, or could lower interest rates push more households to form and demand to jump? With so much multifamily housing supply and the Fed’s recent rate cut decision, we’ve got a lot to unpack on this BiggerNews episode. Thankfully, we have Apartment List’s Chief Economist, Igor Popov, to help us. We’re talking about rent prices: where they are, where they’re going, and what’s impacting them in 2024 (and into 2025). Unsurprisingly, we’ve got a lot of multifamily supply—apartments are giving huge concessions to lease up. But what if we told you we were oversupplied AND undersupplied at the same time, and in a few years' time, demand could heat up again? Igor gives a rare 2025 rental market forecast, his take on what’s impacting rent growth, and whether the “oversupply” of multifamily is hurting single-family rental investors’ chances to get higher rents.  In This Episode We Cover: A 2025 rental market forecast and whether we’ll see rents grow, decline, or flatten next year The areas where all the rental money is moving to (things have REALLY changed) More renter control as the oversupplied multifamily market searches for tenants Why the housing market is currently in a dangerous flood-drought combination  Will sluggish multifamily rent prices push single-family rents down with them?

If you’re like Craig Curelop and learn from what went wrong, then yes! Craig is now financially free, with millions of dollars in equity, thousands in monthly cash flow, and a thriving business. But, back when he was starting, he made a few mistakes that cost him a sizable amount of money, took years of time away, and put serious stress on his shoulders while trying to grow his real estate portfolio. Thankfully, you can take his lessons to heart, so YOU don’t have to make them yourself. Today, we’re talking about one of Craig’s real estate deals that went wrong. What was supposed to be a profitable out-of-state BRRRR (buy rehab rent refinance repeat) investment quickly turned into contractor scams, danger, theft, and even…love. Yes, love is part of it, too. Craig lost a significant sum on this deal, but if you follow his advice, you don’t have to repeat the same mistakes. Even though this was a property from hell, Craig still kept investing, eventually reaching financial freedom and living his dream life. Something WILL go wrong when you start investing in real estate—just make sure it wasn’t what Craig went through.  In This Episode We Cover: Real estate investing mistakes that lost Craig money on his first out-of-state investment  Interviewing agents and why it isn’t enough to work with someone based on a good feeling The easy way to avoid a contractor taking your money WITHOUT doing work Why a cheap deal doesn’t mean it’s a good deal (be really careful) Cutting your losses early and when you should give up on a project that’s going south Why you MUST check references on everyone you work with on a real estate deal And So Much More!

We know—everyone has told you to go to the bigger, growing cities where you can chase appreciation, but today’s guest might change your mind. He was able to scale to over twenty rental properties in just a few years, all by buying in his rural Ohio town that you’ve probably never heard of. Even better? He bought the rentals with none of his own money, AND he was cash-flowing THOUSANDS per month. So how do you do it, too? Josh Bauerle tried to invest in real estate back in 2006. What was supposed to be a “quick flip” turned into a thirteen-year investment, which (thankfully) made a bit of money by the end. After taking a decade off from real estate investing, he got back in the game, first by buying a rental from his father and then by purchasing a twelve-unit real estate portfolio from a local friend. He then scaled FAST to a serious amount of rentals, all in a tiny town with a small population. After that, he stumbled upon the best-kept cash flow secret in real estate investing: section 8 rentals. Today, Josh is sharing how he did it without using his own money, and how you can do it, too, whether you’re in a sizable city or a small town.  In This Episode We Cover: Why living in a small town is a HUGE advantage for real estate investing Seller financing 101 and how to buy rental properties without getting a traditional loan Using other people’s money to build a rental property portfolio Section 8 rentals, the pros and cons, and why they get you MORE rent than regular rentals The simple way that Josh has found his off-market real estate deals with social media And So Much More!

If so, creative finance might be precisely what you need. It’s what today’s guest, Ankit Lodha, used to go from zero rental properties to THIRTY in just a couple of years. Sounds risky? What if we told you Ankit was walking into equity when he bought these deals, keeping him from being overleveraged and helping him build wealth faster? After saving up for over a decade to buy his first property, Ankit quickly realized that building wealth would be a slow grind if he didn’t solve his down payment problem. He was working hard as a data scientist by day, looking for real estate deals by night, and needed a solution to help him creatively buy real estate WITHOUT putting twenty-five percent down on every property. After finding a sweet spot in his local housing market, where he made substantially more rent than other landlords, he knew he needed more properties. Today, Ankit talks about how he scaled from zero to thirty properties using creative financing, seller financing, and traditional mortgages. He’ll talk about how he dodged the high mortgage rates most investors were forced to accept, how he built a team and runs his properties remotely, and the ingenious ways he buys houses for very little down with high cash flow.  In This Episode We Cover: Creative financing explained and using it to build your real estate portfolio faster Low money down real estate with seller financing and creating a win-win for you and the seller Making twice his mortgage payment in rent by tapping into this “gray area” of his market Building his team while working full-time and managing his rentals remotely Making a fifty percent return on one very creative real estate deal The risks of creative finance you MUST know about before you start And So Much More!

Well, that depends. If you want a lower price for a property in a better condition, with a lower mortgage rate and the ability to charge more rent, then new construction homes are what you need. This “sleeper” investment is now cheaper to buy than a regular rental property, but since it’s a new build, it comes with a fraction of the headaches and repairs than most “used” homes. So if they’re cheaper, better, and make you more money, why isn’t everyone buying a new home? Kathy Fettke has been investing in new construction homes for decades. At first, it was just a way for her to have a more passive real estate portfolio. But now, she knows she can make much more with new homes than buying existing rentals. Since so much of her portfolio is new builds, we brought her to the show to share why this investment may be the best on the market. We’ll get into new construction pricing and why new homes are CHEAPER than existing homes but offer better amenities, safer structures, and often much lower insurance prices. Next, how to get a rock-bottom mortgage rate by negotiating with builders (we’re talking three or four percent interest rates!). Plus, Kathy shares precisely how to ensure you’re buying a new home in the path of progress so you can rake in appreciation.  In This Episode We Cover: Why new construction rental properties may be one of the best investments of 2024 Saving serious money on your mortgage with rate buydowns paid for by the developers Why new construction home prices are CHEAPER than existing home prices in 2024 Buying in the “path of progress” to ensure your home value keeps growing Factoring in appreciation into your next deal and whether you should account for it at all And So Much More!

Like any type of investing, real estate can be risky. However, the amount of risk you take changes depending on the deal. Today, we’re helping YOU figure out how much risk YOU should be taking based on your goals and then share some expert risk management tactics so you can be prepared even if a “black swan” event throws your entire real estate investing plan out the window. Ashley Wilson started investing in real estate at a risky time. It was 2009—nobody knew if the housing market would face another significant downturn and crash again. Thankfully, due to determination (and a bit of helpful ignorance), she invested at a time that turned out to be one of the best in history. Now, running massive multifamily real estate deals, Ashley has not only survived but thrived through high interest rates, a pandemic, falling rents, and economic uncertainty. What does she do differently than most investors? She faces her real estate risks BEFORE they happen, and today, she’s showing you how to do the same. We’re talking with Ashley about risk management, how much risk you should take based on your goals, the “buckets” of risk and what you CAN control, and what to do NOW to limit your risk of loss.  In This Episode We Cover: Real estate investing risks and how to mitigate them before it’s too late Dodging black swan events and what to do BEFORE a rare risk hits you The controllable risks you can plan for NOW that’ll protect your wealth during troublesome times Risk profiles based on whether you’re building, preserving, or tax-sheltering your wealth Why shiny object syndrome will cause you more headaches (and loss) than you think And So Much More!

But if it’s so good, why isn’t everyone doing it? Simply put, most investors have no idea that rent-to-own real estate is even possible! So today, we’re talking to an investor, sharing the ins and outs of this lucrative strategy, and showing you how she scaled from zero to over fifty units, half of which are thanks to this strategy. Maura McGraw and her husband quickly realized that being active-duty military members wouldn’t lead to the stable family life they dreamed of. They needed a way out while still making enough money to provide. So, they pivoted and began formally studying real estate. After a first deal left them with a $30,000 loss, Maura did what most wouldn’t and got back out there searching for another deal. After dozens of flips and numerous rentals, she stumbled upon rent-to-own investing—a strategy that would fuel her real estate portfolio’s growth. Imagine getting monthly rent checks without repair and maintenance expenses or insurance costs. That’s what rent-to-own can provide! We’ll talk about analyzing a market, screening tenants/buyers, profit margins, and how YOU can start investing in rent-to-own real estate in your market!  In This Episode We Cover: How to make more cash flow with less risk by providing rent-to-own options to tenants The four major ways to make money from a rent-to-own real estate deal  Who makes the perfect buyer/tenant when offering rent-to-own opportunities  What happens when a tenant defaults on the loan, leaving you with the down payment  Screening tenants/buyers before you offer them a rent-to-own opportunity  Why losing money on your first real estate deal does NOT mean you should give up And So Much More!

Buying a house seems impossibly far away for first-time homebuyers, rent prices are still far past pre-pandemic levels, and mortgage payments are through the roof. This can’t last forever, and some new government policies are trying to ensure it doesn’t. In this week’s BiggerNews, we’re talking to Dennis Shea, Executive Director at the J. Ronald Terwilliger Center for Housing Policy at the Bipartisan Policy Center, about what policies could benefit the country and whether or not they’ll actually pass. We’re also getting into Vice President Harris’ housing plan and former President Trump’s housing plan to see what each candidate believes could bring more affordable housing to the market. With President Biden’s recent rent control proposal, many real estate investors are worried their rents could be capped. But will this nationwide rent control proposal go through?  Plus, what effect does affordability have on current homeowners and investors? Low supply means more demand and higher home prices, but could it come at the cost of your local economy, as renters and would-be homebuyers struggle to afford a home? We’re answering it all in this episode of BiggerNews!   In This Episode We Cover: The housing affordability problem and new government proposals aiming to help  Factors that are making housing so unaffordable and why we’re at forty-year lows  Regulatory and zoning reform, and why we must make construction easier  Harris’ housing policy and new incentivizes to build 3 MILLION homes Trump’s housing policy and using government land for new construction  Biden’s nationwide rent control proposal and whether or not it has enough support to pass  And So Much More!

Then, this episode might surprise you. While most real estate educators online are constantly stressing how you must leave your W2 so you can become a full-time real estate investor, today, we’re going to do the opposite, proving why most real estate investors SHOULD keep their job and let real estate supplement their dreams, instead of becoming their dream. Take it from Lawrence Briggs. He’s an avid BiggerPockets listener who moved to a different city just to invest in real estate. With such passion and drive, you’d think he wants to become a full-time landlord. But the truth is…he doesn’t. His passions go far beyond managing tenants and fixing toilets, so he uses real estate to amplify his lifestyle and protect his finances so that he never HAS to get a job but can choose the exact job he wants to work. Today, we’re talking to Lawrence about balancing your W2 job with real estate investing, why you DON’T need to quit to reach (even a small amount of) financial independence, the side hustle he used to save up for his first rentals, and how he works just a few hours a week managing his real estate portfolio. This is the realistic way to build wealth through real estate, and if Lawrence can go from poverty to multi-unit landlord, you can invest, too!  In This Episode We Cover: How Lawrence escaped generational poverty through sacrifice and smart investing  Why Lawrence does NOT want to quit his job for real estate but would do something else instead  Moving to invest in real estate and why your salary-to-home-price ratio matters  The realistic way to spend just a few hours a week managing your rental properties  One super flexible side hustle Lawrence used to make money, learn how to invest, and find properties  And So Much More!

Neither did Brandon Tilson. As a social worker, he was never on the higher end of the income scale, but thanks to some serious side hustles, he now has eight rental units in just two years! How did he do it while working full-time and having a family to feed? Today, we’re talking to Brandon about why ANYONE can invest in real estate, no matter your experience, salary, or cash in the bank.  Brandon doesn’t have just one side hustle, or two, or three—he has five separate side hustles, leaving him with six jobs to take care of. It’s no surprise that Brandon works anywhere from sixty to eight hours a week, but it’s all been worth it for him, especially after seeing his real estate holdings go from zero to eight rental units in an extremely short period of time. Now, he’s less than ten years away from financial freedom, allowing him to retire early if he wishes to at just forty-five years old!  Brandon gives crucial advice for anyone trying to invest in today’s market, even with higher interest rates. We talk about different side hustles that bring in extra income, how he funded his first deal, what to do when your renovation becomes a “trainwreck,” and whether or not getting your real estate license is worth it. Plus, why investing alone is much harder than doing it with a partner (or spouse!).  In This Episode We Cover: How Brandon scaled to eight rental units in just two and a half years (even on a lower income!) Making extra income every month with real estate (and non-real estate related) side hustles Using a HELOC (home equity line of credit) vs. a cash-out refinance for your first rental  Whether becoming a real estate agent is worth it as a part-time side hustle  Finding your financial independence number and why it’s crucial to know how much you need to be set for life Why you should not DIY your home renovation (even if you have the time)  And So Much More!

The truth doesn’t seem so obvious, but new data shows the unintended consequences of banning Airbnbs and short-term rentals, especially in big cities. To get a take from someone inside the industry and with plenty of data to share, we invited Taylor Marr, Senior Housing Economist at Airbnb, to the show to explain how Airbnbs affect the economy, affordability, and housing supply. For years, there have been claims that short-term rentals take away housing supply from renters and homebuyers and, as a result, inflate rents and home prices in nearby areas. But new data is saying something very, very different. Today, Taylor talks about how Airbnbs and short-term rentals change a local economy, the amount of money this type of local hospitality provides to small businesses, and why affordability ISN’T improving in areas where Airbnbs are banned. We’ll also discuss the age of “experiences” and how hosts can earn more by catering to a new kind of traveler willing to spend. Do you have a short-term rental or want to make money with one in the future? Then don’t miss this episode!  In This Episode We Cover: A short-term rental market update and how Airbnbs are faring in 2024  Airbnb supply and whether or not the short-term rental market is oversaturated  Tips for hosts to take advantage of “experiences” and make more money from their vacation rentals  The $80B impact Airbnb has on local economies and the real result of banning them  How Airbnb is working with local governments to IMPROVE affordability and tourist spending   And So Much More!

After trying out more “active income” business ideas and realizing she didn’t want another job, rental properties became the obvious choice. But putting up her retirement nest egg to try her hand at investing would be a significant risk. Thankfully, it’s a risk that has paid off in a BIG way. Are you getting into the investing game late? Do you feel like you don’t have the time, money, or energy to build a real estate portfolio like all the twenty-something-year-olds on social media? Jill is here to prove you wrong. Within a decade, she’s been able to build a rental portfolio of over fifty units, grow her retirement reserves, and have the financial freedom she always wanted. In today’s episode, we’re talking to Jill about why she chose real estate and not stocks or small businesses, the biggest mistake she made early on when buying rentals, the advantages of being a “late starter” in the rental property game, and advice for anyone in their forties, fifties, sixties, or seventies who want to retire on their terms with real estate!   In This Episode We Cover: How to start investing in real estate in your fifties and reach your retirement goals Supplementing social security with the semi-passive income of rental properties  Why you MUST be careful when choosing the neighborhoods you invest in  The big advantages to investing later in life that’ll help you scale fast  Creating cash flow in your market by finding under-rented properties  And So Much More!

The stock market has taken substantial hits, housing inventory is climbing, and bank account balances are starting to fall. So, with more economic turmoil, we have to ask: will the housing market crash? And if we get a housing market crash, how bad (or good) will it be for investors? Could we see a 2008-style selloff, or should we be more prepared for small dips worth taking advantage of? Today, we’re asking two top investors these questions, one of whom literally wrote the book on Recession-Proof Real Estate Investing. J Scott and James Dainard join us on today’s episode to discuss market crash predictions, scenarios, and opportunities for real estate investors. Both J and James experienced the 2008 housing market crash—an economic event almost impossible to forget. But is 2024 shaping up for a sharp decline like 2008, or will we simply see a slower real estate market like most people had expected when interest rates began to rise? If the market DOES crash, what should you look for to take advantage, and how do you ensure you don’t get caught biting off more than you can chew?

The stock market has taken substantial hits, housing inventory is climbing, and bank account balances are starting to fall. So, with more economic turmoil, we have to ask: will the housing market crash? And if we get a housing market crash, how bad (or good) will it be for investors? Could we see a 2008-style selloff, or should we be more prepared for small dips worth taking advantage of? Today, we’re asking two top investors these questions, one of whom literally wrote the book on Recession-Proof Real Estate Investing. J Scott and James Dainard join us on today’s episode to discuss market crash predictions, scenarios, and opportunities for real estate investors. Both J and James experienced the 2008 housing market crash—an economic event almost impossible to forget. But is 2024 shaping up for a sharp decline like 2008, or will we simply see a slower real estate market like most people had expected when interest rates began to rise? If the market DOES crash, what should you look for to take advantage, and how do you ensure you don’t get caught biting off more than you can chew? J and James break down their game plans if prices fall and why buying now could set you up for wealth ten years from now, IF you can handle the “fear” of buying when others are running from real estate.  In This Episode We Cover: New housing market “crash” predictions and how low prices could go Why economic “fear” is rising now, and the recession indicators that are going off Rising housing inventory and why experienced investors expected this already The difference between the 2008 housing market crash and today What could cause a housing crash and how to know it’s time to buy The immense opportunities for investors that 99% of Americans will pass up And So Much More!

You buy another ten, then a big apartment complex, and now you’re raising money to buy even more. You have zero free time, investors to answer to, and a lot of stress. This wasn’t what you wanted. Let’s take it back to where you are now: how do you actually make it to early retirement? At the height of Chad Carson’s real estate investing career, he was working eighty-hour weeks flipping homes, buying rentals, and dreaming of a financial freedom-enabling portfolio. But when the market crashed, he took a step back and asked, “What do I really want?” Thus, the small and mighty investor mindset was born. Now, Chad is retired early in his forties, working just two hours per week and making six figures in passive income. Want to do it, too? Today, Chad discusses how you can build a small and mighty portfolio with fewer rentals, more cash flow, and ultimate time freedom. We’ll show you how to reverse engineer your goals to build the real estate portfolio you ACTUALLY want to own, why having hundreds of doors isn’t completely worth it, and the “metrics of success” you can use to measure your progress toward financial freedom.  In This Episode We Cover: How to retire early (like Chad) with a small real estate portfolio  Why “door count” isn’t an accurate measure of success in real estate investing Reverse-engineering your financial freedom and how to start working toward it today Discovering your “why” and how NOT to get stuck in the day-to-day drudgery of adult life Measuring your progress toward financial freedom with the “metrics of success” Knowing when is “enough” and why winners know when to quit  And So Much More!

Surprisingly, it’s not as hard as you think, and if you repeat the strategy from today’s show, you could reach financial freedom much sooner than you’d planned. In this episode, we’re talking to Corby Goade, who, not too long ago, was a teacher making just $17,000 per year at the start of his career. So, how did he begin building wealth and replace his AND his wife’s income? After fixing up an outdated house he bought after college, Corby was shocked by how much equity he had made. With some basic painting, new flooring, and simple upgrades, Corby made twice as much in equity as he did teaching. From there, a rinse-and-repeat-type strategy formed as Corby slowly began buying rental properties whenever he could, even with his tiny teacher’s salary. Fast forward to today, and Corby and his wife are financially free, running multiple businesses and living life on their terms. They still own that first rental, even though Corby did “everything wrong” (his words), and his first tenant almost destroyed the property. Still an active investor, Corby says that deals just like his first one are on the market NOW, even in 2024. He shares his exact buy box you can use TODAY to find properties like this, walk into equity, and achieve financial freedom just like he did.   In This Episode We Cover: The repeatable real estate investing strategy beginners can use to build wealth fast  Why house hacking is the easiest way to invest in real estate and start making/saving money Why you can still reach financial freedom, even if you do EVERYTHING wrong on your first rentals The exact buy box Corby uses today to find undervalued real estate deals (even in an expensive market) Corby’s best advice to get real estate deals sent straight to your inbox  And So Much More!

We’ve got some of the top 2024 housing market predictions to share today as we run through what could happen with home prices, mortgage rates, inflation, unemployment, and how single men could unintentionally tank the housing market. But we’re not just reviewing other housing market forecasts; we’re giving our own as we bet on what will happen by the end of this year. If you’re buying, holding, selling, or even thinking about investing in real estate, this is data you need to hear. First, we’re giving you a full rundown of the state of real estate in 2024 and where we are now. We’ll then move on to inflation, the Fed’s biggest target for the past few years. Inflation is starting to taper off, but will we be able to hit the golden two percent inflation rate by year’s end? And with inflation finally falling, would that mean the Fed can FINALLY cut rates and lead us into a lower mortgage rate environment? We’ll tell you exactly where we think rates will be by 2025. Next, we’re hitting on home prices. Some top forecasters are predicting above-average home price growth, while one BIG listing site sees us going negative by this time next year. Who’s right, who’s wrong, and why is one wild predictor saying that single men will cause home prices to fall by twenty percent? We’re getting into it all in this episode of BiggerNews!  In This Episode We Cover: 2024 housing market predictions and where we’ll be by the end of this year Mortgage rates, rate cuts, and the Fed’s BIG decision to make in the Fall of 2024 The current state of the housing market and whether things are improving for buyers A growing unemployment rate and whether we’ll see continued job loss into 2025 Home price forecasts for the summer of 2025 and why one leading listing site expects us to go negative Whether or not we’ll see a housing crash in the near future (and who would cause it) And So Much More!

However, when we started this podcast in 2013, it was a different time. The housing market had crashed just years earlier, prices were still recovering, and cash flow was abundant in many markets. But things have changed, and now we’re changing, too. Welcome to our 1,000th episode and your first look at the new BiggerPockets Real Estate Podcast.  We’re getting back to the basics, sharing investor strategies that work in today’s market and showcasing the data investors need to know now so they can reach financial freedom faster. Our first guest on this new wealth-building journey is Scott Trench, CEO of BiggerPockets and rental property investor.  Today, we ask Scott, “Is financial freedom still possible through real estate, and if so, how do investors achieve it in this housing market?” Scott shares what both beginner and experienced investors must do now to reach financial freedom, who should even be investing in the first place, and the best beginner investment EVERYONE listening to this should be taking full advantage of.   Ready to start building your path to financial freedom today? The BiggerPockets Real Estate Podcast is the best place to be!   We also want to thank David Greene and Rob Abasolo for their massive contributions—David Greene for nearly 7 years as a host and co-host of the podcast, and Rob Abasolo for many of the past 250 episodes. They did a fantastic job building on the foundations poured by our Founder, Josh Dorkin, and Brandon Turner and continued the work of changing millions of lives.  While we had hoped that Rob and David would continue to stay on as hosts in this rotational capacity, we completely understand their desire to move on to their next adventures, and wish them success in those endeavors, knowing that they will continue to change many lives with their thought leadership.

We’re in the best housing inventory position since before the pandemic, so the question is: what happens next? Rising inventory could result in more homes on the market and, in theory, less competition, so lower prices. But, with rates coming down, home prices might go back up with more borrowers entering the market. We’ve got a lot of questions, but thankfully, Senior Economist at Realtor.com Ralph McLaughlin has the answers.   Ralph doesn’t just study the housing market; he actively participates in it as an investor. He’s on this BiggerNews episode to discuss the state of mortgage rates, when we should expect them to start falling, home price updates, housing inventory, and opportunities for investors that most homebuyers will miss.  We’ll discuss the real estate markets with the most and least housing inventory, why price cuts are rising, but home prices aren’t falling, the best markets for investors to take advantage of during the rate-to-price “delay,” and which homes are selling the fastest. If you want to get ahead of the curve and take advantage of hot markets with opportunities that (probably) won’t last, now is the time!   In This Episode We Cover Mortgage rate predictions and when we could see 2024’s first rate cut  Housing inventory’s huge comeback and why prices aren’t falling  Real estate markets seeing the most/least amount of homes for sale  The rise in seller price cuts, but why this ISN’T leading to lower home prices  Hot markets with HUGE opportunities that investors must take advantage of before rates fall And So Much More!  (00:00) Intro (01:19) Lower Mortgage Rates On the Way (06:21) Inventory Hits Recent High  (13:28) Markets with Most/Least Inventory  (15:53) Price Cuts Rise, But… (17:33) Best Markets for Investors  (20:52) Which Homes Are Selling?

Although the past two years have been rough for multifamily, with falling rents, rising interest rates, and higher vacancy, we may be on the way out of this vicious multifamily market we found ourselves in just a year or so ago. With new multifamily construction predicted to dry up significantly over the next few years, current multifamily rents are already beginning to rise. So, where should YOU be buying to take advantage of this positive trend?  Thomas LaSalvia, from Moody’s Analytics CRE, joins us to give a multifamily real estate update and share where to find the best multifamily opportunities in 2024. With some markets still seeing more supply than demand, investors could pick up deals from distressed owners. Plus, one often-forgotten region may see demand pick up in a big way—if you invest here, you could get ahead of the curve!  We’ll also discuss how multifamily rents have been performing, why new multifamily construction will see a huge slowdown in 2025 - 2026, whether today’s sluggish economy will affect multifamily, and the one big danger multifamily real estate investors (and future investors) CANNOT overlook.

She got into it with no money and zero experience. While pregnant with her first child, Heather answered the phones, paid the bills, laid mulch, and slept on the office floor, working long days and longer nights to do anything she could to keep the campground running. Over a decade later, she has a $30,000,000 portfolio, with her first campground worth almost half that amount. How did she do it, and can you repeat her same investing strategy?  In her new book, Real Estate Campgrounds, Heather dives into the almost unbelievable streams of income you can create from just one campground or RV park investment. In today’s show, she shares the different ways you can make money (and cash flow!) from your first campground investment, what to know before you buy, and how rental property owners can transition from single-family or multifamily rentals to campground investments.

She got into it with no money and zero experience. While pregnant with her first child, Heather answered the phones, paid the bills, laid mulch, and slept on the office floor, working long days and longer nights to do anything she could to keep the campground running. Over a decade later, she has a $30,000,000 portfolio, with her first campground worth almost half that amount. How did she do it, and can you repeat her same investing strategy?  In her new book, Real Estate Campgrounds, Heather dives into the almost unbelievable streams of income you can create from just one campground or RV park investment. In today’s show, she shares the different ways you can make money (and cash flow!) from your first campground investment, what to know before you buy, and how rental property owners can transition from single-family or multifamily rentals to campground investments.  We also bust some myths that have probably stopped you from investing in this lucrative asset class before. Do you need a ton of money? Nope. Do you need a HUGE campground? Not really. Should you have hospitality experience? Maybe. Heather started with ZERO real estate investing experience and now is a campground multimillionaire! Want to follow in her footsteps?

With multifamily rents still falling, should we fear a nosediving rent trend in the near future? And why are all these traditionally overlooked investing markets becoming the new rental property hot spots? You asked, and on this episode of BiggerNews, we’re answering. We’ve taken top questions from the BiggerPockets forums and are answering them on today’s show!  It wouldn’t be a BiggerNews episode without talking about the Federal Reserve. With the latest job numbers pointing in the right direction, is this the final signal the Fed needs before they start cutting rates? Or is there a specific unemployment rate we must hit for the Fed to give us some interest rate relief? Next, we’re talking about the continuously “softening” rents around the country. One sector is actually seeing rents grow, but if you’re not seeing that with your rentals, how do you ensure your tenants stay put and keep paying you rent? We’re giving our expert tips on mitigating falling (or stagnating) rents.  Next, we’re highlighting the “affordable” investing hotspots popping up throughout the country as the cost of living increases. Are these markets actually worth investing in, or are the big cities going to have better returns once they bounce back? Finally, should you wait to save up emergency reserves and risk home prices rising OR buy your first property now? We share exactly what we did in the same position when we first started investing.   In This Episode We Cover Fed rate cut updates and how close we could be to mortgage rates finally falling The “softening” rent trend and what you can do NOW to ensure your rent prices stay put  Why the oversupply of multifamily rentals could actually reverse soon  The new “affordable” investing areas that are emerging across the US (and whether we’d buy there) Emergency reserves 101 and whether you should buy now or keep saving  And So Much More!

How a $50,000 Home Pencils Out</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/986-are-tiny-homes-a-good-investment-how-a-50-000-home-pencils-out--75653726</link><description><![CDATA[Are tiny homes a good investment? For just $50,000, you can get a brand new tiny home investment—not even fifteen percent of the average single-family home price in the United States. Even better? These tiny investment properties can bring in over $15,000 per year in rent, making your payoff period minuscule compared to a standard real estate investment. To learn more, we brought Steven Harrell, tiny home builder and investor, on the show to walk through all the numbers and how investors can cash in big on these tiny homes.  Steven has seen the tiny home industry shift from off-the-grid, fringe mini homes in the woods to now a mainstream necessity as more Americans struggle to pay the sky-high cost of rent or a mortgage on standard homes. With affordability at a forty-year low, Americans need cheaper housing options, and tiny homes might be the perfect answer.  We discuss the costs of tiny homes, how much they rent for, finding and buying land to put them on, insurance, financing, and how beginners can get started on this investment at a very attractive price point. Want tiny houses with big profits? This episode is for you!   In This Episode We Cover How much does a tiny home actually cost to build, and how much it’ll rent for  Tiny home appreciation and whether these small investments are for cash flow only How to find and buy the land for your next tiny home, plus what you MUST look for The average insurance cost for a tiny home (it’ll surprise you) Why the average tiny home tenant might not be who you think it is Exactly what Steven would do now to get started investing in tiny homes  And So Much More!

This is the question Tom Keating had to ask himself back in 2018. At the time, he had no real estate investing experience and only picked up The Book on Rental Property Investing by chance. He still had student loans but decided to spend his savings (which could have made him debt-free) on the down payment for his first rental property. Now, just six years later, Tom has an entire real estate portfolio of passive and active investments and is free from his W2!  If you’ve got some form of debt—student loans, credit card debt, medical debt, etc.—you might think you can’t invest in real estate, but you’d be wrong. In today’s episode, Tom breaks down the simple equation you can use to figure out whether you should pay off your debt or invest. Tom took the path less traveled, and now, he’s benefiting from it, being able to go anywhere in the world, live where he wants, and control his schedule.  Tom also shares a simple yet unbelievably valuable way to find the hottest real estate markets and areas to buy rental properties. The best part? The data he uses is FREE, and you can copy his same strategy to get cash flow, appreciation, or a bit of both!  In This Episode We Cover Whether to pay off student loans or invest and the simple calculation you can use to decide  The super simple way to find hot real estate investing areas with appreciation potential  Quitting your W2 job and becoming a full-time real estate investor, even with a small portfolio  How to diversify your real estate portfolio with both passive and active investments  Why Tom invests across multiple states (and strategies) instead of drilling down on one area And So Much More!

While spring is traditionally the hottest time of the housing market, with more sellers and buyers hitting the market at once, this year was stunted significantly. Will this trend continue as housing inventory remains at rock-bottom levels, or are things gradually improving, with a return to normalcy in sight? We’ve got Dr. Skylar Olsen, Chief Economist at Zillow, on to share the latest forecast and which markets could be in trouble.  With mortgage rates still hovering around seven percent, homebuyers and sellers are stuck. Sellers don’t want to trade into a more expensive mortgage payment, and buyers can’t afford today’s median home price. As a result, some under-the-radar, affordable real estate markets are seeing home and rent prices increase, while some traditionally hot markets are already seeing price corrections.  Where will the next correction hit, and which markets will have the most opportunity for real estate investors? Skylar explains it all, plus why Zillow updated their recent home price forecast to show a DROP in home values over the next year.  In This Episode We Cover Zillow’s updated housing market forecast and why they’re predicting prices to drop The spring homebuying season’s “extra slowdown” and why buying/selling is so stunted  Skylar’s 2025 housing market and mortgage rate predictions  What happens when mortgage rates get cut, and whether this could fire up the housing market again The real estate markets seeing the most price corrections, plus hot markets Zillow is keeping an eye on Markets with the strongest rent growth (for single-family AND multifamily investors) And So Much More!

Wondering how to prepare for a recession if one hits soon? Should you sell your rentals and pocket some cash, or will you regret dumping your performing properties to secure some short-term safety? These tough questions can’t be answered by just anyone, so we have our expert investors David Greene and Rob Abasolo on to help you navigate through the most financially puzzling parts of real estate investing.  In this Seeing Greene, we’re tackling topics like how to prepare for a recession as a landlord, what to do when high interest rates kill your deals, and whether you should build an ADU (accessory dwelling unit) or simply park an RV on your land and rent it out instead.

Is he barking up the wrong tree, or is going the investor instead of the residential route a better choice for those trying to grow their contracting business?   Plus, how long a tenant turnover should take and whether your property manager is moving too slowly. All that, and much more, is coming up in this Seeing Greene show!  In This Episode We Cover How to invest in real estate during a high interest rate environment (and find lenders!) Whether or not to sell your rentals if a recession hits in the near future  Renting out an ADU vs. an RV and which will make you more money and come with a lower cost  The power of compound interest and David’s genius method to pay off properties fast Tenant turnover times and how long it should take for your property manager to find new renters  How contractors can get consistent work from investors by doing this  And So Much More!

Yep, you heard that right. We’re not talking about a few hundred bucks a month in cash flow like most rental properties get you. Instead, you can make a living by buying a business “no one wants,” which is exactly what Matt DeBoth is doing.  Matt saw the writing on the wall after building up a sizable real estate portfolio. Low interest rates flooded buyers into the housing market, putting those with properties to sell in a great position. So, Matt sold many of his rental properties and wondered where he should put the money into. Over the next year, he spent his days researching businesses to buy, talking to business brokers, and eventually landed on a local pizza franchise. Matt was able to turn it around, and after months of hard work, he’s collecting serious cash flow from a business that only takes a few hours a week to manage!  If you want to buy yourself a six-figure income stream and feel like now is the perfect time to take a pause from real estate investing, Matt’s story may be just what you need to get started. He shares how much it costs to buy a small business, how to manage it, what to look for in business investment opportunities, and what you can do TODAY to get started!  In This Episode We Cover How to create a six-figure income stream by buying small business franchises  Buying the businesses “no one wants” and how to easily spot an investing opportunity Why a poorly run business can mean tremendous potential for you to make more money The low-money-down small business loans that Matt is using to buy businesses  How to manage your business the right way so you only need to work a few hours a week  Who should (and shouldn’t) buy businesses, and how to pick one  And So Much More!

Even in late 2023, many housing market experts predicted that we’d be seeing high to mid six percent mortgage rates at this point and hovering around the high five percent rate mark by the end of the year, but the Fed isn’t showing any sign of lowering rates soon. Some experts even believe rates could go UP again this year as the job market stays hot and the economy sees unprecedented strength. This begs the question: What IF mortgage rates remain high?  It’s a reality many of us don’t want to see, but 2024 could end with minor, if any, rate cuts, keeping monthly mortgage payments high and affordability low. So, what should an investor do in this situation? Sit on the sidelines? Invest in a different asset class? Pray to Jerome Powell? While that last option may be worthwhile, top real estate investors are saying that NOW is the time to buy BEFORE rates fall. What do we mean?  We’ve got the entire expert investor panel from On the Market here to give their take on what investors should do IF rates don’t fall. From house flipping to long-term buy and hold rentals, our nationwide panel of investors shares exactly what they’re doing to make money even with high interest rates. Plus, we’ll give our predictions on when rates could fall, what will happen to housing inventory, what young people should do NOW to get their first house, and why investors need to “reset” if they want to thrive in this high rate housing market.   Support today’s show sponsor, Rent App: the free and easy way to collect rent!  In This Episode We Cover Mortgage rate predictions and when interest rates could finally start falling  What should investors do IF mortgage rates stay high throughout 2024 The “lock-in effect” and whether or not high rates are leading to lower inventory  The homes that are flying off the market in many areas (and the ones that are sitting) How young people can creatively get into their first home or investment property Why investors MUST “reset” their expectations if they’re to build wealth in this housing market  And So Much More!

So, what should an investor do in this situation? Sit on the sidelines? Invest in a different asset class? Pray to Jerome Powell? While that last option may be worthwhile, top real estate investors are saying that NOW is the time to buy BEFORE rates fall. What do we mean?  We’ve got the entire expert investor panel from On the Market here to give their take on what investors should do IF rates don’t fall. From house flipping to long-term buy and hold rentals, our nationwide panel of investors shares exactly what they’re doing to make money even with high interest rates. Plus, we’ll give our predictions on when rates could fall, what will happen to housing inventory, what young people should do NOW to get their first house, and why investors need to “reset” if they want to thrive in this high rate housing market.   Support today’s show sponsor, Rent App: the free and easy way to collect rent!  In This Episode We Cover Mortgage rate predictions and when interest rates could finally start falling  What should investors do IF mortgage rates stay high throughout 2024 The “lock-in effect” and whether or not high rates are leading to lower inventory  The homes that are flying off the market in many areas (and the ones that are sitting) How young people can creatively get into their first home or investment property Why investors MUST “reset” their expectations if they’re to build wealth in this housing market  And So Much More!

Yep, and mobile home investing is how you do it. We know what you’re thinking, “I don’t want to own trailers! I want to invest in “real” houses where the “real” money is at!” That’s what today’s guest John Fedro thought too some twenty years ago when he stumbled into mobile home investing, which, at the time, was even too embarrassing for him to share. But, over the past two decades, this at-first “embarrassing” investment has made him wealthy, and if you follow his lead, it can do the same for you.  John has successfully made money with mobile homes in various ways: buying and flipping, wholesaling, renting, and seller financing, the main topic of today’s episode. He provides a masterclass on how to make money buying and selling mobile homes, where you essentially take on the role of the bank. However, it’s crucial to be cautious. Mishandling this could lead you into an ethical gray area and potentially harm your buyer. On the other hand, getting it right can create a win-win situation for both the buyer and seller while making you wealthy.   John shares his whole strategy, plus how he’s getting into deals for $15,000 and often making DOUBLE his money and $400 per month (or more) cash flow per door when he seller finances these properties. If you want a way to get into real estate investing without a ton of cash but with the potential to make a serious return on your money, this may be your winning strategy.  In This Episode We Cover The three “levels” of mobile home investing and how much each costs to get into The danger of seller financing the wrong way and how it can hurt your buyer Why you MUST background check EVERYONE you seller-finance a mobile home to One thing that new mobile home investors overlook that can ruin your properties The exit strategies you must know about to avoid losing money on your next deal Whether or not we would invest in mobile homes (and our concerns with seller financing)  And So Much More!

Since 2020, we’ve seen rent prices skyrocket almost overnight, with huge asking price increases for single-family homes, multifamily apartments, and everything in between. But that trend quickly reversed as the fight against inflation began, mortgage rates rose, and would-be homebuyers sat still, not knowing whether to stay renting or search for a home. But, a return to “equilibrium” may be coming soon, and that’s good news for landlords and renters alike. To break it all down, Zumper’s Anthemos Georgiades joins the show to share his team’s latest rent data.  Anthemos brings some surprisingly good news for landlords, from new month-over-month rent growth data to consumer preferences shifting to a more renter-focused lifestyle; now may be the moment landlords have been waiting for as renter demand looks promising and rates stay high. We’ll also discuss the inflation lag effect our rental market has caused and how to stay on top of current rent prices.   Has the dream of homeownership died? And if so, how do YOU attract the long-term renters who want to make a home out of your house (while paying YOU rent!)? Stick around for this rental market update every landlord needs to know about.  Support today’s show sponsor, Rent App: the free and easy way to collect rent!  In This Episode We Cover Rent growth updates and why rents for some units are starting to climb Single-family vs. multifamily demand and which asset is seeing the most strength  Why Anthemos is predicting a return to “equilibrium” for landlords this summer  The massive effect rent has on inflation and how housing shifts the economy  Is the “American Dream” dead?

Mortgage rates are high, inventory is low, buyers have fewer choices, and many homeowners refuse to put their properties up for sale. But could things change in the second half of this year if interest rates fall and inventory improves, even if ever so slightly? We brought Redfin Chief Economist Daryl Fairweather on this BiggerNews episode to get her team’s latest 2024 housing market predictions.  First, Daryl explains how our stubbornly strong economy put the Federal Reserve in a challenging position and whether or not we could hit the magic two-percent inflation rate goal. Will buyers ever get a break in this tough housing market, and could lower interest rates improve things? Daryl shares what she thinks will happen once the Fed finally cuts rates, how low rates could go, and whether or not this will heat home prices up yet again.  Some “unusual demand” may come late this year for housing, but will agents, brokers, and sellers see the traditionally hot summer season they’ve been waiting for?

Should I Sell or Lower My Rent?</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/969-seeing-greene-i-can-t-find-tenants-should-i-sell-or-lower-my-rent--75653799</link><description><![CDATA[Your rental properties are sitting vacant—what do you do? Do you sell or lower your rent price to spark some interest? Will reducing your rent open you up to bad tenants? We’re getting into exactly what you should do in this sticky landlording situation, and many others, in this episode of Seeing Greene. This time, we’re sharing wisdom on what to do when you can’t find tenants, how to invest with just $15,000 in 2024, which rental property mortgage to pay off first, and whether to keep or sell your newly renovated rental.  As usual, your real estate investing experts, David Greene and Rob Abasolo, are on the show to help answer any investing question you can think of. Our first video submission comes from a new investor who is completing his first BRRRR (buy, rehab, rent, refinance, repeat). With only $15,000 in the bank and a desire to build a real estate portfolio, what’s the BEST way to use such a small amount of cash? Next, a landlord with multiple rentals wants to know which mortgage to pay down first: her primary residence or her other rentals. An out-of-state investor with a vacant property struggles to find a tenant even after lowering his rent price. A medium-term rental owner with a burnt property asks whether to sell or re-rent the property after his insurance-paid renovations are completed.  Want to ask David and Rob a question? If so, submit your question here so they can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene, or hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take!  In This Episode We Cover Struggling to find tenants? What to do if you think your rent price is too high  Building a real estate portfolio with just $15,000 and why you must use the “BRRRR method” Paying off your mortgage early and whether to prioritize loan balance or interest rate when picking which property to pay off The huge danger of using a HELOC (home equity line of credit) to pay off a property What to do after you renovate/rebuild a rental property—keep or sell it? And So Much More!  (00:00) Intro (01:24) Build a Portfolio with $15K? (10:43) Which Mortgage to Pay Off First?  (20:22) I Can’t Find Tenants!  (30:00) Sell or Keep Renovated Rental?

We doubt it comes even close to what we’re about to share. Today, the experts are in to talk about bee-infested rental properties, risky flips, “wholetail” failures, and other ways that they’ve lost money with real estate deals gone wrong. Why are we sharing such horrific stories? Because we want YOU to be able to avoid the same fate on your first or next investment property. Take a seat, get some popcorn, and pray that your properties won’t turn out like this…  First, Henry Washington from the On the Market podcast shares his recent luxury flip…or should we say, luxury “flop.” This property was poised to make him up to a six-figure profit, but it didn’t work out that way. One simple mistake ruined this real estate deal and forced Henry to slowly pay away all his profits to a hard money lender. Next, our own Rob Absolo talks about the dangers of NOT looking at the comps when doing a “wholetail” deal and how you could easily find yourself with a home worth less than what you put into it.  Finally, the deal of all horrible deals comes out…David Greene’s deal. Where do we even start? Permit problems, mold, bee infestations, and NO way out—this short-term rental gone wrong is costing David hundreds of thousands of dollars, and with little light at the end of the tunnel, he may be forced to do something drastic. So, how do YOU avoid these nightmarish real estate deals? Stick around so you know exactly what NOT to do.  In This Episode We Cover Three of the worst real estate deals our investing experts have ever done Why not knowing your neighborhood can cost you BIG on your next house flip The danger of hard money loans and the massive interest they come with Why you NEED a partner/mentor in your area to confirm a property’s worth The so-called “landlord-friendly” state that’s actively trying to ruin David Greene  How nosy neighbors can end up costing you hundreds of thousands of dollars  Whether or not our investing experts regret investing in real estate after this  And So Much More!  (00:00) Intro (01:24) A Risky Luxury Flip (06:02) Final Numbers and Exit Plans (09:19) Henry’s Mistake  (11:14) An Overpriced Wholetail  (15:04) Rob’s Mistake  (23:23) The City Ruined My Real Estate (32:43) David Lost HOW Much!?

One that takes less cash, less time, and is beginner-friendly? Then you’re in the right place! In this Seeing Greene, we’re talking about the “sneaky rental tactic” that can help you build a real estate portfolio in just a few years. And if insurance and property taxes have been eating away all your cash flow, we go through a real-life investor’s situation to determine whether he should hold, fold, or change his real estate strategy. All that, and more, is coming up!  Like most investors in America, your property expenses are rising, but rent isn’t climbing at the same rate. What do you do when your cash flow disappears? That’s what our first investor is asking. Then, a house hacker wants to know how to get into his second property and what rules he has to follow to house hack once again. A rent-by-the-room investor gets given an ultimatum by his potential tenant—what should he do? We’ll also discuss the difference between “cheap” and “bad” houses, what to look for in a home inspection, and what to do when guests throw a party at your Airbnb.  Want to ask David a question? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene. Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can jump on a live Q&amp;A and get your question answered on the spot!   In This Episode We Cover Whether to keep or sell a rental property if it no longer brings in monthly cash flow The “sneaky rental tactic” anyone can use to buy their first (or next) investment property  How many checking accounts you should have for your real estate portfolio Renting-by-the-room and what to do when a tenant has make-or-break demands  The problem with buying “cheap houses” and why we steer clear of them  What we look at in a home inspection report and what you should always ask the inspector  How to stop parties and large gatherings from happening at your Airbnb or short-term rental  And So Much More!  (00:00) Intro (01:51) Sell My Low-Cash-Flow Rental?  (07:30) The “Sneaky” Rental Tactic  (12:55) How Many Checking Accounts?

One that takes less cash, less time, and is beginner-friendly? Then you’re in the right place! In this Seeing Greene, we’re talking about the “sneaky rental tactic” that can help you build a real estate portfolio in just a few years. And if insurance and property taxes have been eating away all your cash flow, we go through a real-life investor’s situation to determine whether he should hold, fold, or change his real estate strategy. All that, and more, is coming up!  Like most investors in America, your property expenses are rising, but rent isn’t climbing at the same rate. What do you do when your cash flow disappears? That’s what our first investor is asking. Then, a house hacker wants to know how to get into his second property and what rules he has to follow to house hack once again. A rent-by-the-room investor gets given an ultimatum by his potential tenant—what should he do? We’ll also discuss the difference between “cheap” and “bad” houses, what to look for in a home inspection, and what to do when guests throw a party at your Airbnb.  Want to ask David a question? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene. Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can jump on a live Q&amp;A and get your question answered on the spot!   In This Episode We Cover Whether to keep or sell a rental property if it no longer brings in monthly cash flow The “sneaky rental tactic” anyone can use to buy their first (or next) investment property  How many checking accounts you should have for your real estate portfolio Renting-by-the-room and what to do when a tenant has make-or-break demands  The problem with buying “cheap houses” and why we steer clear of them  What we look at in a home inspection report and what you should always ask the inspector  How to stop parties and large gatherings from happening at your Airbnb or short-term rental  And So Much More!

Logan Koch, an investor in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, was buying investment properties for one specific goal: To retire his parents. With a $45,000/year cash flow target in mind, Logan and his parents went to work, finding small multifamily rental properties to buy, fix, and increase rents on. But one day, Logan stumbled across a commercial real estate deal that nobody wanted, one with huge signs of opportunity.  In today’s show, Logan lays down step-by-step exactly what he did to find this unwanted and unnoticed commercial real estate investment, how he was able to DOUBLE the cash flow on it, the massive return on investment he’s walking away with, and even how he got the city to lower his property taxes by two-thirds! The best part? None of what Logan did requires expert-level investing knowledge. Anyone, even a complete real estate investing beginner, can follow Logan’s same thought process to find and buy undervalued real estate deals.  Do you want to start building some retirement (or early retirement) cash flow for yourself or your parents? These are the exact types of deals you should be on the lookout for! Stick around as we discuss Logan’s almost unbelievable return on this cheap investment property everyone else was overlooking!   In This Episode We Cover Telltale signs that a property’s expenses are WAY too high (and how to lower them significantly) Setting a cash flow retirement goal that’ll allow you to retire (or retire early) on your timeline  How Logan cut his property tax bill on this investment by over sixty percent!  Seller financing and how to get creative when buying commercial real estate  BRRRR-ing a big property and how Logan bought $15,000/year cash flow for just $20,000!

When interest rates are low, housing inventory is high, the economy is booming, and everyone’s happy, real estate investors can take considerably more risks with bigger payoffs. But now, only the most savvy investors are finding cash flow, appreciation potential, and wealth-building properties. So, with little hope in sight for lower rates or home prices, how do you ensure you’re building wealth, not getting burnt, in the challenging 2024 housing market?  If there’s one person who knows how to invest during tough times, it’s J Scott. He literally wrote the book on recession-proof real estate investing and has flipped, landlorded, and syndicated through booms, busts, and the in-between periods. Today, J is laying down his six rules for real estate investing in 2024, which he’s following himself to ensure his portfolio doesn’t just survive but thrive, no matter what the housing market throws his way.  First, we dive into the factors causing such a harsh housing market and whether J thinks home prices will rise, flatten, or crash. Next, J walks through the six rules for real estate investing in 2024. We’ll talk about appreciation potential, rising expenses like insurance and property taxes, the riskiest investing strategies of today, loans that’ll put your real estate deals at risk, and why you MUST start paying attention to your local housing laws.   Support today’s show sponsor, Rent App: the free and easy way to collect rent!  In This Episode We Cover The six rules for successful real estate investing in 2024 from a time-tested expert Inflation, interest rates, home values, and why the housing market has significantly slowed down What rising expenses like insurance premiums, property taxes, and labor will do to your rentals The one thing you CAN NOT assume when analyzing real estate deals (big potential mistake) Adjustable-rate mortgages (ARMs) and why J is avoiding these at all costs  Rent control, short-term rental regulations, and housing laws that could put your rentals at risk And So Much More!

The BRRRR method is how you do it. Seriously—the BRRRR strategy is almost too good to be true, which is why so many real estate investors use it as the stepping stone to start building wealth. In short, the BRRRR (buy, rehab, rent, refinance, repeat) method allows you to reuse and recycle your money repeatedly, turning one sum of cash into multiple investment properties or an entire portfolio! This allows you to build your real estate portfolio faster WITHOUT having to wait around to save up tons of capital to invest.  But how do you use the BRRRR method to build wealth, passive income, and financial freedom? We’ve got a financially free investor, Dave Meyer, on the show to walk through the three steps of completing a BRRRR real estate deal. From finding the properties to analyzing them for maximum profit potential and refinancing to get your money back out, these are the steps a beginner needs to take to do their first BRRRR deal. Plus, we’ll even show you a tool that runs the numbers for you in just minutes so you can get your first or next investment property even faster!  Want to do BRRRR deals like the pros? Sign up for BiggerPockets Pro to unlock unlimited BRRRR calculator usage and access all the elite investor tools by using code “BUYPOD24” at checkout. Plus, you’ll score a sweet discount and over a thousand dollars in bonuses!   In This Episode We Cover The BRRRR method explained and how to use it to “invest on repeat”  Why BRRRR may be one of the best ways to reach financial freedom FAST The risks of the BRRRR method (and easy ways to get around them) How to find perfect properties for the BRRRR method (and Dave’s favorite way to find deals) Analyzing a BRRRR deal from start to finish (in just minutes!) with the BRRRR calculator  How to get funding for your first or next BRRRR deal with these investor-friendly lenders  And So Much More!

We know you’ve thought about it before—starting a compound with all the people you love, everyone helps each other, watches each other’s kids, the community stays safe, and you barely have to drive! This is exactly what co-ownership homes, co-buying, and co-living can do for you! But getting a dozen or so people together to do a real estate deal can be a little tricky; that’s why we have Phil Levin, founder of Live Near Friends, on the show to help.  Phil lives in his own housing “cluster” with nineteen (yes, nineteen) of his closest friends. He believes that being near your loved ones helps you live a happier, safer, and more contented lifestyle—and we agree! There are massive positives to living in a neighborhood with your friends. We’re talking free babysitters, consistent helping hands, less driving and more walking, and, of course, being able to see your best friends almost every day of the week. But practically, how does one start building a community like this?  Phil walks through the different setups anyone can try to begin living with and around their friends and family, from co-buying with one or multiple others to starting a “minihood” and making your own part of the block, or building an ADU (accessory dwelling unit) for a close friend or two to live in. He even talks about the rising demand for this type of co-living and what developers and real estate agents can do to make serious profits from this growing trend.   In This Episode We Cover Co-ownership, co-living, and co-buying explained and how to live with your best friends  The massive benefits of living near family and friends (especially if you have kids!) The “law of proximity” and boosting your lifestyle by co-living with more happiness and less stress  Creating a “minihood” where you and your friends all live within walking distance How real estate developers can get a jump on this fast-growing co-ownership trend  And So Much More!

High down payments. Most lenders want you to come to the table with twenty to thirty percent down, but with home prices averaging around $400,000, it might not be easy to come up with $80,000 to $120,000 on your next deal, especially with today’s high cost of living. So, how do you skirt the high down payment requirements while still locking up solid real estate deals? We’re showing you how in today’s Seeing Greene!  First, a Hawaii investor struggles to scale his real estate portfolio with the state’s significant down payment requirements. David and Rob give him some creative ways to still get deals done. A median-income-earning new investor wants to know whether to buy a new construction home or BRRRR his way to wealth. Then, we debate whether a high down payment with cash flow beats a low down payment with negative cash flow. Looking for a better interest rate on your next deal? We’ll share the seller finance strategies you can use to buy off-market properties, plus whether or not you can buy two houses at once with the same preapproval.   Want to ask David a question? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene. Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can jump on a live Q&amp;A and get your question answered on the spot!   Support today's show sponsor, Rent to Retirement, by checking out their turnkey rental properties for sale!

High down payments. Most lenders want you to come to the table with twenty to thirty percent down, but with home prices averaging around $400,000, it might not be easy to come up with $80,000 to $120,000 on your next deal, especially with today’s high cost of living. So, how do you skirt the high down payment requirements while still locking up solid real estate deals? We’re showing you how in today’s Seeing Greene!  First, a Hawaii investor struggles to scale his real estate portfolio with the state’s significant down payment requirements. David and Rob give him some creative ways to still get deals done. A median-income-earning new investor wants to know whether to buy a new construction home or BRRRR his way to wealth. Then, we debate whether a high down payment with cash flow beats a low down payment with negative cash flow. Looking for a better interest rate on your next deal? We’ll share the seller finance strategies you can use to buy off-market properties, plus whether or not you can buy two houses at once with the same preapproval.   Want to ask David a question?

At the beginning of the year, real estate investors were hopeful that mortgage rates would fall, affordability would return, and home prices would have a chance to stabilize before going back up. But none of those things happened. Rates are still high, affordability is at a forty-year low, and home prices are slowly rising even with diminished demand. Why is this happening, and what’s causing these market moves? All that and more, with VP of Market Intelligence at BiggerPockets, Dave Meyer, in this BiggerNews episode.  We’re giving you an entire wrap-up of the 2024 housing market (so far) on today’s episode as Dave goes through the data behind affordability, home prices, inventory, sales, and which real estate markets are faring the best. With more and more homeowners “locked in,” the US as a whole is still experiencing low housing inventory—HALF the amount of inventory from just a few years ago. This puts buyers in a tough spot. Should they buy now with limited choices and high rates or wait for mortgage rates to drop? And if they do decide to wait, what happens to rent prices?  Dave answers it all plus shares the region-by-region differences affecting each corner of the US housing market. From high inventory in the Southeast to the often overlooked real estate regions with massive demand, we’ll get into where money is moving and which states you should be most concerned about investing in. All that, and much more, in this BiggerNews housing market update!   Support today’s show sponsor, Rent App: the free and easy way to collect rent!  In This Episode We Cover A 2024 housing market update and the data you should pay attention to most Why home prices continue to rise EVEN with low demand and record-low affordability Our ongoing affordability crisis and how mortgage rates are stunting home sales Why inventory is exploding in one specific region of the United States (and what it means for investors) Slow rent growth and the multifamily overbuilding problem that could affect many investors Exactly what Dave is investing in this year, plus the one big concern he has for future real estate deals  And So Much More!

The right property manager can give you the time to scale your portfolio to new heights, all while increasing the revenue on your rental properties. But the wrong property manager can drown you in unnecessary fees, push time-consuming tasks back on your plate, and leave your properties worse off than they were before. How do you distinguish between the two when every property manager tells you they’re the best in the business? In today’s show, we’ll show you how.  After building their real estate portfolios, Luke Rzepiennik and Michael Vialpando struggled to find property managers that fit their standards. They both had portfolios of short-term rentals, but no manager in their area was making the cut. With busy schedules and full-time jobs, neither of them could drop everything to become the perfect property manager. So, instead, they started Renjoy to not only manage their own properties but other investors’ properties as well.  If you’ve struggled to find the right property manager in your area or are at the tipping point of needing one, Luke and Michael can help. They give a masterclass on property management, from the exact questions to ask a property manager to signs of a great one, red flags to watch out for, and when it’s time to stop managing your own properties and start hiring it out. Plus, we’ll share the huge mistake most rental property investors make and the little “fees” that can kill your cash flow when using a property manager incorrectly.  Find a trusted property manager in your area today with BiggerPockets Property Manager Finder!  In This Episode We Cover How to hire a property manager so you can spend less time managing and more time scaling What a property manager does and the roles and responsibilities you should expect them to take on  Questions you should ask any short-term rental property management company BEFORE you hire them Death by fees and the tiny charges that are draining your rental of any cash flow When it’s time to hire a property manager and common property management pricing  And So Much More!

When mortgage rates began to rise, subject to (often called sub to) came in as the hero to save the day. This real estate investing strategy offered investors the chance to take over low-interest-rate loans from homeowners who wanted to sell their properties. And, with often a minimal down payment required, new and experienced investors lined up to give this fast-scaling strategy a try. Without even knowing it, Tanner Litchfield did the same. After being brought a home run, three-percent mortgage rate deal, Tanner knew he had to act quickly to secure what would be a massive passive income play. He put down a six-figure down payment to secure it, with another seventy thousand dollars in renovation costs. Things were rolling smoothly until…they weren’t. Tanner lost every penny he put into this property and the property itself while another investor walked away with it in hand. How did this happen, and how do YOU avoid a six-figure creative financing mistake? In today’s episode, Tanner walks through every difficult detail of this deal gone wrong. He shares the red flags he should have seen in the beginning and the one thing that could have saved him from this deadly deal. If you’re interested in seller financing, subject to, or any other type of creative financing, you MUST listen to this episode, or you could be hit with a six-figure loss, too.  In This Episode We Cover: Subject to real estate explained and why so many investors are flocking to this strategy The “due on sale" clause which can easily lose you an entire property if called Why you MUST understand the zoning and rules for your rental property BEFORE you buy it The “gray area” of creative financing that is putting new and veteran investors at risk Why having a solid network in your investing area can stop you from getting burned  And So Much More!

We brought the fine folks from The Motley Fool on the podcast to get into a serious debate over which asset makes you more money, which is easier to invest in, and which saves you the most in taxes. We’ll go head-to-head against The Motley Fool’s Jason Moser and Matt Argersinger to finally answer the age-old question: Should you invest in stocks, real estate, or both?  For this debate, we had to bring out the big guns. That’s why Dave Meyer and BiggerPockets CEO Scott Trench will be on team real estate for this debate, as Chris Hutchins from All the Hacks moderates to ensure things stay fair. Although we’d love to admit that we crushed this debate, there are some moments when the stock investors will surprise you, showing that real estate may not be for everyone and how stocks beat real estate in numerous ways. But that doesn’t answer the question, “Does real estate make you richer?” Don’t worry; we’ll get into all that in this debate.   Stick around as we get into the topics you care about most: building wealth, barriers to entry, volatility and risk, diversification, REITs vs. rentals, leverage and liquidity, time commitments, tax advantages, and more. If you’re itching to park your cash in an investment, hear out the debate BEFORE you make a move!  Support today’s show sponsor, Rent App: the free and easy way to collect rent!  In This Episode We Cover The ultimate real estate vs. stocks debate (and which will make you richer) Barriers to entry and which asset class is the EASIEST for beginners Volatility and risk, and the sizable advantage real estate has for stable pricing  REITs (real estate investment trusts) vs. rentals and the more “passive” type of real estate investing  How much time it actually takes to succeed at stock investing and landlording  The MASSIVE tax advantages to real estate investing that stocks cannot beat  Why BiggerPockets CEO Scott Trench invests more in stocks than in real estate (!?)

That’s right, just twenty-five percent of the median home price in America. Well, we found a couple who does just that, finding fixer-upper properties that often cost less than six figures and turning them into eye-catching, head-turning homes. They even argue that these cheap old homes are BETTER than the newer-built house flips that so many investors are targeting today. So, how do you find your next $100K home, and where do you start looking?  Elizabeth and Ethan Finkelstein, the brains behind HGTV’s Cheap Old Houses and the social media account by the same name with millions of followers, join us on today’s show. Elizabeth and Ethan love cheap old houses, but not for the reason you think. Most investors purely look at the numbers or the profit potential, but Elizabeth and Ethan see beyond that, fixing up old houses to not only collect the significant equity gain but restore communities and bring back long-forgotten styles, materials, and looks.  They’ve bought houses for as cheap as $27,000 and turned them into homes anyone would dream of having. If you’re an investor without much capital and can get a little handy, these old houses could explode your portfolio. But who SHOULD be buying these cheap old houses? Stick around as Elizabeth and Ethan give their expert advice on what to DIY vs. hire out, which old pieces to keep, the best way for beginners to get started with little money, and the decades that built the BEST houses!  In This Episode We Cover How to get on the path to financial freedom by buying cheap old houses  Buying houses for just $27,000 and where to find these types of homes  How old is old enough, and the decades when building quality starts to decline Using the “live in flip” strategy to buy your first fixer-upper or primary residence  DIY vs. hiring it out and the tasks that Elizabeth and Ethan enjoy the most  And So Much More!

When should someone use the 1% rule in real estate, and when does this metric point to a cash flow disaster? What’s the best way to get more capital or funding for future real estate deals: get a HELOC on your primary residence or look for investor-only DSCR loans? We’re pulling some of the top questions from the BiggerPockets Forums and giving our answers on today’s show!  Expert investors Dave Meyer, James Dainard, and Kathy Fettke from the BiggerPockets On the Market podcast are on today to answer YOUR real estate investing questions. First, we return to the age-old debate, “Does the 1% rule exist anymore?” With high home prices and lagging rent growth, this once foolproof metric could be an outdated calculation inexperienced real estate investors should avoid. Next, can you make more money building houses than flipping houses?   Are turnkey rentals the best “low headache” real estate investment? We’ll answer that and give our thoughts on when to use a HELOC (home equity line of credit) vs. a DSCR loan (debt service coverage ratio). Finally, for our out-of-state investors, we share the top metrics to look at BEFORE you invest in a new market.   Want to ask a real estate investing question? Post yours in the BiggerPockets Forums, and we might select it for our next show!  In This Episode We Cover The 1% rule explained and when you should (and definitely shouldn’t) use it to decide on deals Building new construction vs. flipping houses, plus which could make you more in 2024 Turnkey real estate investing and whether the lost value-add potential is worth the passive income HELOCs (home equity lines of credit) vs. DSCR (debt service coverage ratio) loans Best tools to use and metrics to track when looking into out-of-state investing markets  And So Much More!  (00:00) Intro (00:46) Is the 1% Rule Dead? (08:24) Building vs. Flipping Houses (14:30) Are Turnkey Rentals Worth It?

Dave Meyer, VP of Market Intelligence at BiggerPockets, took his time building up passive income, and years later, it’s what has allowed him to amass impressive wealth all while living abroad, working where he wants, and securing a very stable retirement. But Dave wasn’t always some housing market genius who knew every statistic and metric about real estate investing. He started as a broke college student with no job prospects, struggling to pay his own rent.  After graduating college during one of the worst recessions America had ever experienced, Dave was waiting tables to keep the lights on. He realized that he needed a different way to get ahead, and just getting a job wasn’t going to be enough. So, even with no money, Dave convinced a few friends to buy a house together while he borrowed money for his share of the down payment. Dave managed the property, took the tenant phone calls, and did what he had to do to learn the real estate ropes. And…it worked!  Now, a decade and a half later, Dave has an entire real estate portfolio of long-term and short-term rentals and passive income streams from syndication investments, but this all started with one small deal he took a chance on.

Dave Meyer, VP of Market Intelligence at BiggerPockets, took his time building up passive income, and years later, it’s what has allowed him to amass impressive wealth all while living abroad, working where he wants, and securing a very stable retirement. But Dave wasn’t always some housing market genius who knew every statistic and metric about real estate investing. He started as a broke college student with no job prospects, struggling to pay his own rent.  After graduating college during one of the worst recessions America had ever experienced, Dave was waiting tables to keep the lights on. He realized that he needed a different way to get ahead, and just getting a job wasn’t going to be enough. So, even with no money, Dave convinced a few friends to buy a house together while he borrowed money for his share of the down payment. Dave managed the property, took the tenant phone calls, and did what he had to do to learn the real estate ropes. And…it worked!  Now, a decade and a half later, Dave has an entire real estate portfolio of long-term and short-term rentals and passive income streams from syndication investments, but this all started with one small deal he took a chance on. Today, Dave shares every part of his story, from finding the first deal to moving abroad, pausing buying rentals, and why he’s getting BACK in the game now and doing deals again!

As America’s affordability crisis continues to strain consumers, one of the most considerable costs, housing, is much to blame. Rising mortgage rates are making monthly payments significantly more expensive than just a few years prior, but how long can this last? According to the Vice President of Enterprise Research Strategy at ICE, Andy Walden, not much longer.  Every month, Andy’s team at ICE releases their Mortgage Monitor data reports, sharing valuable insights on what’s happening in the housing market. On this BiggerNews, we’re asking Andy to share what the data is telling him about home prices, mortgage rates, housing inventory, and buyer demand but, even more importantly, where we could be headed in 2024 and whether or not this hot housing market still has room to run.  While there has been huge home price growth over the last few years, Andy reckons prices could begin to “soften” as affordability reaches its breaking point. With demand retreating from the market and housing inventory still on the rise, prices may start to decline, and even if interest rates do fall again, we may not see the uptick in demand many home sellers are waiting for. Stick around as we unpack exactly what’s moving the housing market with ICE’s Andy Walden!   Support today’s show sponsor, Rent App: the free and easy way to collect rent!  In This Episode We Cover Why home prices may begin to “soften” in 2024 and what’s causing demand to fall How to predict housing market trends and the key metrics that indicate potential price movement  The “lock-in” effect that’s causing homeowners to hold on to their properties  Why inventory is quickly rising across much of America, EVEN with sky-high rates The ongoing affordability crisis and the dramatic changes that could solve it  Record home equity and why American homeowners may be richer than ever  And So Much More!

It allows you to get the best mortgage rates with the lowest down payments and buy properties in the best areas. And you can do it every single year until you grow a massive real estate portfolio. Real estate millionaires have been made using this strategy, but most Americans have no idea about it. What’s the wealth-building secret that savvy investors are taking advantage of? Of course, it’s house hacking.  If you’ve never heard of house hacking before, the concept is simple: You buy a single-family home or a small multifamily property and rent out the space you’re not using. This not only allows you access to the best mortgages but also keeps your mortgage cost lower than living on your own. This strategy is so good that expert investor Dave Meyer and today’s lender guest, Terrence Terrell, have used it repeatedly to build serious wealth.  If you’re a first-time homebuyer or have a home but want to get into rental property investing, this is THE strategy to try first. Terrence gives a beginner-friendly masterclass on house hacking, showcasing the huge benefits of house hacking’s low-money-down loans, what you need to have to qualify for a mortgage, the common misconceptions most people get wrong about house hacking, and how to use this strategy to build wealth fast.  In This Episode We Cover House hacking explained and why it’s the easiest beginner real estate investing strategy  How to buy your first investment property with as little as ONE percent down  Qualifying for a mortgage and what first-time homebuyers must know before they apply The free way to find out whether or not you’ll be able to get financing for your house hack The easy, low-money-down way to build a real estate portfolio by house hacking  And So Much More!

Joshua Tree, the Smoky Mountains, maybe Destin? We all know about the famous short-term rental markets, but what about the not-so-famous ones? You know, the unsexy markets where you book an Airbnb for a conference or when you’re going to see extended family? That’s right; we’re talking about everyday American markets like Cincinnati, Ohio. But surprisingly, these markets make some of the best investments for short-term rental investors like Jarrod Tucker and Yiwei Cheng.  Jarrod and Yiwei moved to Cincinnati for work shortly after catching the real estate investing bug. They knew they wanted to invest in real estate, but long-term rentals only came with measly cash flow that would never support their passive income goals. So, what’s the next best option? Short-term rentals! Unfortunately, Cincinnati isn’t known as a popular vacation getaway, but it didn’t have to be to support Jarrod and Yiwei’s cash flow dreams!  Now, five years after the start of their investing journey, they have ten rentals of their own and manage a couple dozen more for other investors. The question is, how do you make money with short-term rentals in an unsexy market? Jarrod and Yiwei walk through their tips for finding the right properties, keeping occupancy rates high, buying real estate when your DTI (debt-to-income) gets maxed out, and why you MUST separate yourself from the basic short-term rentals to reach your financial goals.  In This Episode We Cover The three types of short-term rental guests who consistently come to markets like Cincinnati  How to set your Airbnb apart if you’re in a saturated short-term rental market  Tips for higher occupancy and what you MUST have to get more bookings  Scaling your real estate portfolio when you have high DTI (debt-to-income) Using partnerships to buy even more properties when you’re low on cash Why you DON’T need to invest in high-priced, popular vacation destinations  And So Much More!

We mean a really low rate—like 4.75% in 2024 low. What about half a million in profit on a sneaky development deal?

These aren’t made-up numbers; these are REAL deals that our expert investing panel is doing in today’s hot, hot housing market. And if you know where to find deals and steals like these, you, too, could be taking home huge profits like they are! Thankfully, they’re sharing all their secrets on today’s episode!

Kathy Fettke gives tips on getting a low mortgage rate on your next new construction rental and how doing so could massively boost your cash flow. Henry Washington walks through a quick flip that will make him $55,000 on the low end and the ingenious way he found this deal.

During the lockdowns, many musicians, gig workers, and creatives saw their income streams dwindle. There were no shows to play, no tours to attend, festivals were canceled, and human-to-human contact was limited as much as possible. As a result, famous musicians began to become real estate agents, mortgage brokers, investors, house hackers, and everything in between to pay their bills. And guess what—it worked!   Now, touring is back on, but those whose job is pursuing their passions still need extra income to take care of their bills during slow seasons or to build wealth. That’s where Juliet Lalouel from Heavy Realty comes in. Juliet is a Colorado and Hawaii-based investor and real estate agent who helps the music and creative communities find ways to fast-track their financial freedom to keep doing what they love. But her message doesn’t just apply to musicians. Anyone who loves what they do but wants more financial stability can take these lessons to heart.  Today, we’re talking about how anyone from any background can use real estate to supplement their income, pay their bills, and help them build wealth. Juliet shares why you may make a great real estate investor/professional without even knowing it and the beginner investments that ANYONE can try to start building a strong financial fortress, even if you’re a real estate enthusiast by day and a rock star by night.   In This Episode We Cover Real estate side hustles that’ll help you make extra income no matter your experience  Why musicians and creatives make GREAT real estate investors  The best ways to start making money with real estate and how to find your perfect role Beginner investments for anyone to start building wealth today Financing your first investment property, even if you DON’T have a W2 Why real estate is the ultimate side income stream to support your dreams  And So Much More!

It’s a threat that could take away all your cash flow, ruin your real estate portfolio, and put you right back to square one after years of work. And even the most seasoned investors aren’t immune to this threat—our own David Greene almost got caught in this trap and had to act quickly to escape. What’s the danger we’re discussing, and how do you ensure YOU don’t lose everything? We’re about to tell you! We’re back on another Seeing Greene as David and Rob take your real estate investing questions and give up-to-date advice on what they’d do in your situation. First, a real estate investor sees his cash flow disappear due to rising operating expenses—should he sell the property or keep a low/no cash-flowing deal? Then, we talk about the silent threat targeting real estate investors—title fraud. An investor wants to know if a low mortgage rate on a subject to deal warrants a higher price, and Rob and David debate whether investing in expensive markets is worth the cost.  Want to ask David a question? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene. Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can jump on a live Q&amp;A and get your question answered on the spot!   In This Episode We Cover: Title fraud explained and how silent thieves can steal your real estate portfolio without you even knowing it  Whether to keep, sell, or 1031 exchange a rental property that won’t cash flow  The real value of a low interest rate and why many investors get this wrong  Warning signs that your properties are being stolen out from under you  Investing in expensive markets and why we would/wouldn’t invest in states like Hawaii  And So Much More!

With housing inventory still hovering around historical lows, finding a cash-flowing, appreciating rental property isn’t as easy as before. But maybe that’s just because most people don’t know where to look for these properties. In reality, there are steals and deals all around us, and if our hosts can take down home-run real estate deals in this housing market, what’s stopping you from doing it, too? So today, David Greene and Dave Meyer are giving you three ways to find your next real estate deal using both on AND off-market investing tactics. The majority of Americans ignore these tactics, and only serious or savvy investors will follow through on them. Once you know where to find these deals, the deal flow doesn’t stop. If you can master any of these three tactics, you’ll have a source of profitable investment properties streaming to you for years to come. First, we’ll show you how to find off-market deals and a few strategies you can use to locate and engage with motivated sellers. Next, we’re sharing the exact networking play to get real estate deals sent straight to you. And if you think on-market (MLS) deals are dead, you couldn’t be more wrong. David shares how he picked up an on-market luxury vacation rental for a surprisingly low price, all because he knew where to look!

These investment property loans can help. Most real estate investors get stuck early on in their journey. They buy some properties and build up some comfortable cash flow, but then…they can’t qualify for another loan. They’ve either reached the maximum limit on conventional mortgages OR don’t have enough income to qualify for bigger and better investments. So what do they do? Give up? Settle with a small rental portfolio? No, they use THESE investment property loans instead. Jeff Welgan, our investor-friendly lender expert, is back to show us what we’ve been missing. From DSCR (debt service coverage ratio) loans that help you scale to more doors, to no-income-necessary investor loans that don’t look at your income, to business bank statement loans that’ll let you buy homes based on your business’s cash flow, these mortgages can help anyone in any position, purchase real estate faster. If your DTI (debt-to-income) ratio is too high and you’re struggling to qualify for another mortgage, this is THE episode for you. We’ll discuss using your property’s rent to qualify for more, loans that get around DTI requirements, using your business to fund your deals, and the mortgages you should look into FIRST before you move on to more complex loan products.

These investment property loans can help. Most real estate investors get stuck early on in their journey. They buy some properties and build up some comfortable cash flow, but then…they can’t qualify for another loan. They’ve either reached the maximum limit on conventional mortgages OR don’t have enough income to qualify for bigger and better investments. So what do they do? Give up? Settle with a small rental portfolio? No, they use THESE investment property loans instead. Jeff Welgan, our investor-friendly lender expert, is back to show us what we’ve been missing. From DSCR (debt service coverage ratio) loans that help you scale to more doors, to no-income-necessary investor loans that don’t look at your income, to business bank statement loans that’ll let you buy homes based on your business’s cash flow, these mortgages can help anyone in any position, purchase real estate faster. If your DTI (debt-to-income) ratio is too high and you’re struggling to qualify for another mortgage, this is THE episode for you. We’ll discuss using your property’s rent to qualify for more, loans that get around DTI requirements, using your business to fund your deals, and the mortgages you should look into FIRST before you move on to more complex loan products. Stick around if you’re ready to scale faster!

But an investor-friendly agent—one who will find deals for you, run the numbers, hook you up with contractors, and help you get funding—isn’t the same as your neighborhood agent down the street. These agents have connections that can help skyrocket a new real estate investor’s portfolio and bring them deals that no one else knows about. So, how do you find these diamond-in-the-rough real estate agents? You need to ask THESE questions. To help you vet your future investor-friendly real estate agent is James Dainard. James is a flipper, wholesaler, broker, investor, and lender in the Seattle, Washington, area. He’s been buying and selling houses for two decades and does more deals in one month than most investors do in years! He’s here to guide any investor through finding an investor-friendly agent, the crucial questions you MUST ask at the start, his number one tip for finding the best agents in an area, and how agents can set themselves apart from the competition. But that’s not all. With the latest agent commission lawsuits, more buyers are aware that commissions are negotiable. So, whether you’re looking to get a steal on your next deal or want a first-class buying and selling experience, James walks through how you may now be able to negotiate what commission you want to give an agent, depending on what matters most to you. In This Episode We Cover: The best place to find a real estate agent (for investors!) Questions you MUST ask any “investor-friendly” agent BEFORE you use them  The services that expert-level agents provide that’ll help you build wealth faster Negotiating agent commissions and how the recent NAR lawsuit could change the agent landscape How to make sure that your agent knows what they’re talking about when they bring you deals And So Much More!

With new no-money-down mortgages coming out specifically to help first-time home buyers finally get into a property, you can now buy a house for no money out of pocket, with your entire purchase price and closing costs covered. These 100% financeable loans aren’t a secret, so why don’t most first-time home buyers know about them? In this BiggerNews, we’re diving deep into the best first-time home buyer loans available in 2024, how to pick up your first property for NO MONEY out of pocket, and low-money-down multifamily deals any brand new investor can start buying today. With affordability at nearly forty-year lows, most Americans struggle to save up a down payment, even if they have enough income to qualify for a home loan. This is where 100% financeable loans come in, making it easier than ever to buy your first home. So, who can get approved for these first-time home buyer mortgages, where do you find them, and how do they work? Jeff goes through these programs on the federal and state levels, showing first-time home buyers where to find them, which loans to avoid, and whether or not they can use these loans to buy their next property.

With new no-money-down mortgages coming out specifically to help first-time home buyers finally get into a property, you can now buy a house for no money out of pocket, with your entire purchase price and closing costs covered. These 100% financeable loans aren’t a secret, so why don’t most first-time home buyers know about them? In this BiggerNews, we’re diving deep into the best first-time home buyer loans available in 2024, how to pick up your first property for NO MONEY out of pocket, and low-money-down multifamily deals any brand new investor can start buying today. With affordability at nearly forty-year lows, most Americans struggle to save up a down payment, even if they have enough income to qualify for a home loan. This is where 100% financeable loans come in, making it easier than ever to buy your first home. So, who can get approved for these first-time home buyer mortgages, where do you find them, and how do they work? Jeff goes through these programs on the federal and state levels, showing first-time home buyers where to find them, which loans to avoid, and whether or not they can use these loans to buy their next property.

When done correctly, property management can feed you consistent, passive income without the everyday stressors of being a landlord. Whenever you hear people talking about bad tenants, midnight phone calls, or surprise maintenance problems, they’re really talking about property management gone wrong. So, how does a rookie real estate investor, with even just one rental property, start managing the right way so they can scale their portfolio faster?  Amelia McGee and Grace Gudenkauf, authors of The Self-Managing Landlord, did it all wrong initially. They were picking up every tenant phone call, placing every service request, taking rent payments every which way, and here’s the thing—none of it was working. As they scaled their portfolios, things only got more difficult until finally, one day, they stopped and developed a system, and like that, their businesses took off. Now, only a few years into real estate investing, both Amelia and Grace have dozens of rental units to their names and less stress than ever before. How did they do it all WITHOUT hiring everything out to a property manager? In today’s show, they’ll share the self-managing principles they used to explode their rental portfolios while staying sane! And if you’re a new investor or are about to be one, these tips could save you YEARS of headaches! In This Episode We Cover: Why EVERY real estate investor should be self-managing when building their portfolio How to start building your property management “system” that’ll save you HOURS a week What brand new investors NEED to start doing once they have their first property Three apps/software that every real estate investor should have Tenant selection 101 and simple mistakes that could cost you months of rent  How to know it's time to start outsourcing and signs you need some help And So Much More!

These market conditions make investing in real estate harder than ever…or so most investors think. The truth? This housing market isn’t all that different from years past, and if you know which moves to make, you can get ahead of all the other investors without them noticing. What do we mean? We’ve got a seasoned investor with over thirty years of rental property experience on the show, ready to share how buying during “high” rates can be a huge advantage. But that’s not all we’re getting into on this BiggerNews episode. We’ve got questions directly from BiggerPockets listeners that we’re throwing at expert investor Kathy Fettke to see what time-tested advice she’d give. First, a listener wants to know why mortgage rates aren’t falling and how to get into the real estate investing game during a time like this. Then, we discuss how investors can save themselves against inflation. With a spike in part-time work, could the American economy be showing signs of weakness? Finally, we answer the question everyone has on their minds: Is it the darn millennials’ fault for causing these high home prices? Want to ask a question for a future BiggerNews episode? Post your question in the BiggerPockets forums and get answers from a community of over 2,000,000 real estate investors! In This Episode We Cover: Mortgage rates explained and why interest rates are staying so high Sneaky ways to snag a LOW interest rate in 2024 (Kathy got 4.75%!)

These market conditions make investing in real estate harder than ever…or so most investors think. The truth? This housing market isn’t all that different from years past, and if you know which moves to make, you can get ahead of all the other investors without them noticing. What do we mean? We’ve got a seasoned investor with over thirty years of rental property experience on the show, ready to share how buying during “high” rates can be a huge advantage. But that’s not all we’re getting into on this BiggerNews episode. We’ve got questions directly from BiggerPockets listeners that we’re throwing at expert investor Kathy Fettke to see what time-tested advice she’d give. First, a listener wants to know why mortgage rates aren’t falling and how to get into the real estate investing game during a time like this. Then, we discuss how investors can save themselves against inflation. With a spike in part-time work, could the American economy be showing signs of weakness? Finally, we answer the question everyone has on their minds: Is it the darn millennials’ fault for causing these high home prices? Want to ask a question for a future BiggerNews episode? Post your question in the BiggerPockets forums and get answers from a community of over 2,000,000 real estate investors! In This Episode We Cover: Mortgage rates explained and why interest rates are staying so high Sneaky ways to snag a LOW interest rate in 2024 (Kathy got 4.75%!) The best hedge against inflation and how to protect the money you have Rising part-time work and whether or not this is a recession warning sign  Did millennials cause this unaffordable housing market?

But, even with so much free-flowing information on how to pay less to Uncle Sam, most real estate investors are missing out on a MASSIVE tax deduction that could be saving them thousands, if not tens of thousands, on their tax bill.

Today, he’s walking through whether or not you need a tax professional (a LOT of people DON’T), why you need to start tax planning BEFORE you buy your first property, the biggest real estate tax write-off that most people miss, and why you should WAIT to file your taxes to see if a MASSIVE real estate tax benefit is making a much-awaited comeback.

In This Episode We Cover: The big real estate write-off that most investors are completely overlooking Why you should WAIT to file your taxes in case this MASSIVE tax benefit returns Who should (and definitely shouldn’t) be doing their own taxes  Scaling your portfolio?

Just like that, buyer’s agents were no longer getting their standard three percent commission, and many investors began imagining what buying and selling homes would be like without realtors. But is this massive NAR settlement as dramatic as the headlines are making it out to be? Is there really an agent exodus on the horizon, or is this just a way for the bad agents to exit the industry quickly? We brought on a panel of top investor-friendly agents to find out. Joining us are four agents from across the nation: Avery Carl, Craig Curelop, Juliet Lalouel, and Mike Savegnago. All of these agents are affected by the recent NAR lawsuit settlement, but they don’t seem so shaken up. For many of these agents, this lawsuit simply thinned the competition, putting the expert agents back on top while showing the less-than agents the door. Plus, after the recent deals they’ve done, they’re not too concerned about a lack of buyer’s agent fees. Today, we’re asking each of them their thoughts on the changes to the NAR’s rules, how this will affect buying and selling homes, what this means for real estate agent commissions, and what agents should do NOW to get ahead of the game. Plus, since our agent panel is all investors as well, they give some crucial advice on finding an agent in your area that will help you build your real estate portfolio even bigger.  In This Episode We Cover: The NAR lawsuit explained and what it means for real estate agent commissions A “huge exit of agents” and how this could change the real estate industry forever What to do when a seller offers you or your buyer’s agent a zero-percent commission What real estate agents need to start doing NOW to ensure they still get paid The key signs of an investor-friendly agent that any landlord should be looking for Massive downsides of buying or selling without an agent (it will cost you…) And So Much More!

How’d he do it so quickly? Before we answer that, we’re going to make this a little more impressive. Dylan isn’t buying in the big cities with tons of inventory going on the market every week—he’s been buying in tiny towns that you and almost everyone else listening to this have never heard of. And he may have struck gold by doing so. Dylan acquired his first investment property right before the lockdowns. Then, after closing, he quickly realized that this was the worst rental property he could have bought. It had everything—low rents, tenants who never paid, and, to top it off, a cesspool of human waste in the crawlspace—everything you need for a deal gone wrong. He quickly got control of this nightmare rental, flipping it and walking away unscathed. But now, he had to start back from square one, this time with new knowledge. Over the next few years, Dylan made it his mission to build multiple income streams, so every dollar he made went into new deals. He eventually met partners that would help him scale even quicker and learned the secret to finding the best off-market properties—don’t worry, he shares it in this episode! Now, he’s got over one hundred rentals across three small markets, and if you copy his strategy, you could too! In This Episode We Cover: Why you CANNOT overlook small markets when investing in real estate The #1 best way to find off-market real estate deals in any area How much emergency reserves you should have on hand at ALL times Investing in real estate with no money by finding the deal FIRST Scaling your real estate business faster so you don’t have to do so much of the work The risk of having only a W2 salary and just one income stream And So Much More!

So, are our low inventory struggles finally behind us? During the low interest rate days, housing inventory couldn’t keep up with demand. Within days of posting a listing, properties had already gone under contract, and buyers could no longer bid. But now, with higher interest rates, we’re finally starting to see a return to “normal,” but a rate cut could take us back to scarce inventory in an instant. So, is now the time to buy? Mike Simonsen from Altos Research joins us on this BiggerNews episode to give an update on housing inventory. Mike’s team tracks every home for sale in the country every single week and has been doing so for almost two decades. Today, he gives us the most recent data on homes for sale, why inventory is rising, the states that are seeing the most inventory hit the market, and whether or not we can expect to return to pre-pandemic inventory levels. Plus, for those debating waiting it out for lower mortgage rates, Mike shares exactly how rates will affect housing inventory and why waiting could throw you back into the bidding wars once rates drop again. Mike even discusses the data behind price cuts and when you can expect sellers to start accepting lower bids.  In This Episode We Cover: A housing inventory update and why more inventory is finally starting to hit the market What happens to housing inventory if interest rates fall or rise Florida, Texas, and other southern states that are seeing a surge in housing inventory  Why most investors are wrong about price cuts  What must happen if we’re to see inventory rise back to pre-pandemic levels The one thing buyers and sellers should know if they’re waiting for rates to fall  And So Much More!

Even if everything goes wrong, you may still be in a better position than Ayesha and Kevan Shelton were just a few years ago. After quitting their jobs to become full-time real estate investors, Ayesha and Kevan found themselves staring at a $300,000 loss. Their credit was ruined, their life savings drained, and most of their partners walked away, never to return. Ayesha and Kevan did the right thing, paying back every investor who funded their failed house flips, but it came at a cost. With a baby on the way, Ayesha and Kevan were debating bankruptcy to get some relief from the massive financial pressure they were under. But some wise investors told them they had it in them to rebuild their wealth—and that’s precisely what they did. In today’s incredible investor story, you’ll hear about how this power couple pivoted to turn their business around and began investing in new build construction projects. Now, five years later, they’ve built sixty homes, developed their own communities, and created true wealth out of nothing. The best part? These new construction homes are affordable housing, helping solve the inventory crisis we’re currently facing and giving those that truly need it safe, affordable, quality homes to live in. And if Ayesha and Kevan can do it starting from negative, you can too, even if you’re starting from zero! In This Episode We Cover: How Ayesha and Kevan turned a $300K loss into a massively successful business  Why you always (ALWAYS!) pay back the investors you’ve borrowed from Affordable housing 101 and how to get discounted land deals for your next new construction project How to find the “path of progress” of where homes will appreciate in your area Scaling your business with new construction homes instead of flipping houses Private money, hard money, and other creative financing methods to use when banks WON’T fund your deals And So Much More!

When is it time to STOP investing in real estate? When you have a hundred units or a thousand? When can you step back and let the hard work and grind pay off so you can spend more time with your family, spouse, children, and loved ones? But maybe this is just the start of your real estate investing journey, so a better question would be: how to start investing when you DON’T have tons of money to get in the game? Whether you’re a couple of years away from early retirement or gearing up for your first rental, we’ve got you covered on this episode of Seeing Greene.  Full-time real estate investors David and Rob are back to answer your investor questions! This time around, live-caller Ethan wants to know when enough is enough. He’s built a big real estate portfolio, but his spouse is asking, “What’s the end goal?” Next, David and Rob share what’s going on in their own lives and the “perfect storm” that hit David head-on that could be headed your way. A young house hacker wants to know the best plan for his property after he moves out: rent by the room, turn it into a long-term rental, or go the short-term rental route. Finally, a homeowner with some sizable equity but no extra money asks if she should sell her low-rate primary residence and exchange it for some investment properties.  Want to ask David a question? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene. Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can jump on a live Q&amp;A and get your question answered on the spot!  In This Episode We Cover: Why you need to start preparing your short-term rental for spring and summer break NOW When to start raising rates on last-minute guests (HUGE revenue boost) What you MUST include in your listing before it’s spring/summer break Amenities that any host can add to their home to bring in more bookings  Why seasonal photos make a huge difference to guests when browsing properties How to avoid parties at your property and guest red flags to watch out for Airbnb’s indoor camera ban and what to do if you have security cameras on your property And So Much More!

After a snowball of NAR lawsuits, the realtor association agreed to settle for a whopping $418 million and make critical changes to how real estate agent commissions are paid and how competition can be upheld. This significantly impacts anyone buying or selling a home and has life-changing effects for every real estate agent and realtor in the country. The New York Times’ Debra Kamin joins us to break the story. Debra breaks down the enormous legal loss that NAR (National Association of Realtors) suffered last week and the impacts it will have on the housing market. First, we discuss the new agent commission rules, which may break the standard six percent fee that realtors are used to taking. These commissions are real estate agents’ livelihoods, and a new model that supports lower commissions could force many agents to leave the industry entirely.  We’ll also touch on the turbulent times NAR has faced recently, from sexual harassment scandals to changing leadership and, now, a massive settlement that could lose them more than half of their members. Will a new type of real estate agent form from the ashes of this century-old model? Or, could a brand-new way of buying and selling homes transform the housing market? Stay with us; we’ll give you the entire scoop. In This Episode We Cover: NAR’s massive settlement creating ripple effects across the real estate market  The new real estate agent commission rules that could shock an entire industry  Changes to the multiple listing service (MLS) that may open the market up to new competition  The future of buyer’s agents and whether or not they’ll remain a critical component to buying a home  Sexual harassment scandals, turbulent leadership, and recent NAR struggles  What the future of using a real estate agent could look like  And So Much More!

You’re tired of the early mornings, late nights, alarm clocks, and commuting. You want to go out on your own, create your own destiny, gain autonomy, and control your schedule. Can real estate help you get there? Definitely, but it won’t be the way you think. Those popular flipping shows on TV and influencer Instagram feeds love to show how easy and fun it is to be a full-time real estate investor. But is this reality? Today, we’re having an “escape the rat race” roundtable as Dave Meyer, David Greene, and Rob Abasolo discuss the best way to quit your job with real estate. Two of these investors are full-time real estate professionals, while one still holds their nine-to-five. In this episode, they get into the exact strategies you can use to start building wealth through real estate, create cash flow to replace your job, and determine which investments will work best for you. There’s even one strategy they ALL agree is the best way to get started. But before you hand in your two weeks’ notice, you better listen up. The world of full-time real estate investing isn’t what it seems on the outside, and unless you’re willing to put in the work, you might as well stay at your job and invest on the side. Want to hear about the grind none of the investing gurus will tell you about? Stick around; we’re sharing it all in this episode.  In This Episode We Cover: How to quit your nine-to-five job and start investing in real estate full-time The easiest way to get started investing in real estate that EVERYONE should do Active vs. passive real estate investing and whether you should flip houses or fund other people’s deals The truth about real estate cash flow and why it WON’T solve the problems you want it to Which personality types should invest in which assets (and the ones you should avoid) Real estate jobs you can start NOW that will help you get into the game even faster  And So Much More!

You see the same countertops, wall colors, appliances, and flooring in almost every new flip. While it makes sense for many high-volume flippers to use the same “cookie cutter” recipe repeatedly, it may not get you the highest price on your house flip. If you want to start a bidding war on your next investment property, you’ll need to think outside the box, like George and Heather Bassett have. George and Heather aren’t your everyday house flippers. To start, they filmed this entire interview from inside a church-turned-luxury house flip. George and Heather want to make each home they flip stand out and feel unique to every prospective buyer who walks through it, and their recipe for success sure seems to be working. On a recent flip, they had over fifty showings in one weekend alone. So, what house-flipping tips do they have that could help YOU sell for more? From unique finishes to thinking of livability first, asking the house what IT wants, and staging the not-so-basic way, George and Heather deliver an absolute masterclass on how to turn your next fix and flip into a show-stopping, bidding-war-starting, beautiful property that could give you tens of thousands more in profit than what the everyday flipper is getting. In This Episode We Cover: Why “cookie cutter” flips AREN’T what buyers want in 2024  Inexpensive, “unique” additions that’ll make your fix and flip sell for more Asking the house what IT wants and keeping the character of historic homes  How to use “bold” renovations to start a bidding war on your next house flip  Financing your next fix and flip with hard money, private money, and…credit cards?

To do so, you’ll need some serious investments. And if you want bigger and better cash flow or appreciation, commercial real estate is the place to start. But how do you find these bigger deals? Sure, it’s easy to log on to your favorite listing website and find a hundred houses to buy, but what about self-storage facilities, multifamily apartments, warehouses, and more? How do you find the BIG deals? On this Seeing Greene, we’re answering crucial investing questions so you can build wealth better and reach financial freedom faster. First, Real Estate Rookie guest Mike Larson calls in to ask how to find off-market commercial real estate deals. If you’ve ever wondered how to invest in commercial real estate, this is the place to start!

Don’t believe us? Just ask Rico to the Rescue’s Rico León. Rico has spent years cleaning up contractor mistakes, making homeowners feel whole again after getting ripped off, lied to, and scammed by who they thought were reputable contractors. As a contractor himself, Rico knows the red flags to spot right away to tell if a contractor will take your money and run, and he’s sharing them with us today! This episode is crucial for ANYONE who owns a home, is looking to renovate one, or is just getting started in real estate investing. Home renovations can make or break your career as a real estate investor, so knowing who can get the job done is a skill that can’t be overlooked. Rico breaks down the common problems inexperienced contractors run into, the Ponzi scheme of payments to look out for, how to create a contractor contract so you protect yourself, and the mistakes you can prevent BEFORE you hire a contractor. Plus, we’ll get into the not-so-obvious red flags that only an experienced contractor will notice, what you need to check before you hire a contractor, the milestones to set up so you don’t get ripped off, and the conversation you must have with ANY contractor before work begins. Finally, Rico leaves us with four tips to help even the most inexperienced homeowner hire the right contractor. In This Episode We Cover: Red flags that point to a shady contractor who has their eyes on your wallet Writing your contractor contract so you stay legally protected during a renovation Why you never (EVER!) pay upfront for a home renovation  What you MUST check before you hire a contractor to ensure they’re legit  The common contractor Ponzi scheme that is slowly being targeted by local governments  Expert-tested tips to hire the right contractor for your first home renovation  And So Much More!

With inflation still rearing its head and the job market hot as ever, the Fed already has enough evidence to hold back on lowering the federal funds rate, which influences the mortgage rate you get on a home. So when will the Fed finally lower rates so we can escape this highly unaffordable mortgage market? Or, can the Fed pause for the foreseeable future as we enter a new era of high interest rates? Caeli Ridge, President of Ridge Lending Group, is here to help us answer these questions. Caeli works on getting investors mortgages every single day, so she has a solid pulse on the mortgage market. She gives us a mortgage rate update, explaining what today’s rates look like, when the first Fed rate cuts could come (sooner than you think!), and how a mortgage lender calculates your specific rate. She also gives some tips on navigating this high-rate environment and why merely looking at your mortgage rate as a deciding factor could cost you big time. As we wrap up, Dave will give his perspective on what the Fed is waiting for and the factors that MUST change before the Fed decides to proceed with a rate cut. He’ll also share a few tips on how to get ahead of the competition with today’s high rates and why these unique advantages won’t last long.  In This Episode We Cover: How long we’ll have to wait for the Fed to finally cut rates  March 2024 rate update and the rate you can expect on your next mortgage What matters MUCH more than your mortgage rate when closing on a property LLPAs (loan-level price adjustments) and how to score a lower interest rate from your mortgage lender The crucial economic factors the Fed is watching to decide when to lower mortgage rates How to get ahead of the competition during a high-rate environment and buy when the masses are distracted And So Much More!

But today’s guest was doing twenty to thirty real estate deals a MONTH. That’s right—not per YEAR, per MONTH. And he did it all while scaling his real estate business at lightning speed. The best part? He didn’t have to use his own money to get there—his deals were being funded completely by private partners, and if you stick around, you’ll know exactly how to do it, too! After closely observing investors while he was a real estate agent, Don’nell Greer got the hang of finding and tackling profitable real estate deals. After much analysis paralysis, he got his first deal under contract—an $80,000 home that needed some heavy sweat equity to make it profitable. With high rents and low home prices, Don’nell knew the deal would work, but he needed more money. Through a family loan, Don’nell realized the power of private money, and once he saw the possibilities, there was no turning back. Fast forward soon after, and Don’nell was borrowing hundreds of thousands of dollars from millionaire investors he met through his network. Thanks to the new source of funding, Don’nell was able to flip dozens of houses a month, making a life-changing business in the process. But it wasn’t all good news. Partnership problems, rising interest rates, and changing market dynamics forced Don’nell to make a hard pivot—a pivot you may have to make in the future! In This Episode We Cover: How to get past analysis paralysis and get your first real estate deal in the bag How to use private money to fund your real estate deals when you’re low on cash Flipping twenty-thirty houses a MONTH by scaling your real estate business  Taking a chance on tenants and why most landlords say “no” to some of the best renters  How Don’nell corrected course when rising interest rates put his flipping business at risk The power of coaching and mentorships and why you need a strong real estate community to succeed  And So Much More!

What about boosting your property’s equity by tens or hundreds of thousands? The “value-add” strategy can do all this and more, but you’ll need to know the right moves to make. Top real estate investors have been using value-add on their rental property portfolios for decades, turning lackluster rentals into financial freedom-producing properties, and you can do the same IF you know how to spot value-add opportunities. So, today, we’re showing YOU how to make MORE cash flow and explode your home equity by tweaking your rental properties in the right ways. Both David and Rob have done this numerous times across multiple properties. In fact, David even shares a real-life example of how he increased the cash flow on one of his rental properties by over $10,000/month thanks to an interesting strategy most rookie real estate investors would completely overlook. Not only that, Rob was able to turn his first Southern California home into a multifamily rental that hosts long, medium, and short-term tenants, and rakes in massive cash flow almost a decade after purchasing it. Whether you’ve got small, big, long, medium, or short-term rentals, you can use value-add to create more passive income and bigger equity gains. Stick around as we give away our secrets on the best value-add moves to make.  In This Episode We Cover: How to use the “value-add” investing strategy to make MASSIVE cash flow on any property  The two most common ways to add value to your rental property portfolio The value-add improvements to spot BEFORE you buy another rental property (most people miss this) Additions, ADUs, and other ways to add more doors to your rental property  Boosting your cash flow by converting your long-term rentals into short and medium-term rentals  What you MUST do BEFORE you start adding on to your rental property And So Much More!

Out-of-state investing is the way to go! With it, you can invest nationwide, finding more cash flow or appreciation potential than you would in your local area. But managing a rental property portfolio from hundreds, if not thousands of miles away, isn’t always easy. Thankfully, we’ve got two time-tested out-of-state investors with six killer tips to share on making your next long-distance investment as profitable and painless as possible.

How about $400K/year cash flow? Would that be enough to set you financially free? For Amanda and David Fornelli, this is reality, and it’s all thanks to one very unique rental property investment. And even though these numbers are massive, Amanda and David aren’t that removed from being real estate rookies. Just five years ago, they didn’t own any rental properties and were W2 workers just looking for a way to make some extra income. After finding themselves in a real estate investing program, this power couple began flipping any house they could get their hands on in Southern California. Within three months, David had made twice as much from flips as he did at his day job, so he quit, and the rest is history. Now, they’re full-time investors, still flipping houses, but ALSO running a multimillion-dollar boutique hotel that’s making them hundreds of thousands of dollars a year in profit. In today’s episode, Amanda and David talk about leaving their jobs to flip houses full time, how they slowly realized that short-term rentals beat the short-term profits of house flipping, why they’re still investing in high-priced Sothern California, and the massive cash flow they’re making off their very first commercial real estate investment—a small, but very profitable boutique hotel. In This Episode We Cover: Making $400K/year from an unconventional type of rental property When it’s time to quit your job and become a full-time real estate investor Using the BRRRR strategy to make massive wealth gains WITHOUT investing your own money How to mitigate risk when doing high-priced house flips (especially as a beginner!) Raising private money and how to buy bigger, better real estate deals without using your own cash Short-term rental vs. hotel investing and why you CANNOT treat these as the same assets And So Much More!

More than ever, rental property owners are waking up to find less and less mailbox money coming in every month. This is doubly true for those who used low down payments to house hack and turned their properties into full-on rentals. So, what do you do if you have a rental property giving you low, no, or negative cash flow? Should you sell it and swap it for another investment or ride it out, betting on future appreciation gains? We’re giving our thoughts in this Seeing Greene! As always, David and Rob are here to answer your pressing real estate investing questions. But resident yacht tycoon James Dainard also brings his twenty years of investing experience to the show to help this week’s rookie real estate investors. First, our very own Noah Bacon asks what he should do with a negative cash-flowing house hack that has six figures in tax-free equity. Then, we ask a question everyone wants an answer to, “WTF is wrong with investors these days?” If you want to turn your house into a rental property, stick around because two more investors ask whether it’s worth it AND when you can start writing off those lucrative real estate tax deductions. Want to ask David a question? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene. Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can jump on a live Q&amp;A and get your question answered on the spot! In This Episode We Cover: Whether to keep or sell a rental property that’s losing money every month Appreciation vs. cash flow and why SO many new investors get this wrong How to minimize your chance of negative cash flow by buying in THESE areas Why some real estate markets appreciate while others rarely see price growth Whether you should turn your primary into a rental property or buy an investment property instead Real estate tax deductions and how long you have to wait to write them off And So Much More!

Ever since interest rates began to rise, multifamily transactions have slowed considerably. Higher rates made profits fall, and as a result, buying and improving multifamily properties halted. And, with a massive lag in multifamily construction, new units were popping up left and right in already saturated markets, creating a race to the bottom for rent prices as multifamily operators struggled to keep their units occupied. But, the multifamily woes may be close to over. Kim Betancourt, Vice President of Multifamily Economics and Strategic Research at Fannie Mae, joins us to share the findings of a recent multifamily report. Kim knows that there are oversupplied multifamily markets across the country. Cities like Austin have become the poster child for what oversupply can do to home and rent prices. However, Kim argues that this is only a fraction of the overall housing market, and many markets are in need of more multifamily housing. So, if much of America is still struggling with having enough housing supply, shouldn’t rents be on an upward trend? Kim shares her team's findings and rent forecasts, explaining when rents could begin to climb, which multifamily properties will experience the most demand, and why we need MORE multifamily housing, not less. In This Episode We Cover: Fannie Mae’s 2024, 2025, and 2026 rent growth forecast for multifamily A “tale of two markets” and why the “oversupply” narrative isn’t the whole story Property classes and why B/C-class properties are seeing such strong demand The one metric that points to a growing or shrinking multifamily real estate market  Why so many millennials are “stuck” as renters and can’t become homeowners How rising rents could affect multifamily prices and boost valuations across the country And So Much More!

And, with a massive lag in multifamily construction, new units were popping up left and right in already saturated markets, creating a race to the bottom for rent prices as multifamily operators struggled to keep their units occupied. But, the multifamily woes may be close to over. Kim Betancourt, Vice President of Multifamily Economics and Strategic Research at Fannie Mae, joins us to share the findings of a recent multifamily report. Kim knows that there are oversupplied multifamily markets across the country. Cities like Austin have become the poster child for what oversupply can do to home and rent prices. However, Kim argues that this is only a fraction of the overall housing market, and many markets are in need of more multifamily housing. So, if much of America is still struggling with having enough housing supply, shouldn’t rents be on an upward trend? Kim shares her team's findings and rent forecasts, explaining when rents could begin to climb, which multifamily properties will experience the most demand, and why we need MORE multifamily housing, not less. In This Episode We Cover: Fannie Mae’s 2024, 2025, and 2026 rent growth forecast for multifamily A “tale of two markets” and why the “oversupply” narrative isn’t the whole story Property classes and why B/C-class properties are seeing such strong demand The one metric that points to a growing or shrinking multifamily real estate market  Why so many millennials are “stuck” as renters and can’t become homeowners How rising rents could affect multifamily prices and boost valuations across the country And So Much More!

And it’s easy to see why. Using this simple formula, you can buy an outdated property, fix it up, lock in some solid equity, and then refinance, having the bank pay you back all the money you put into a deal. It sounds foolproof in theory, and up until 2020’s hot housing market, it essentially was. But things have changed. Home prices are higher than ever, mortgage rates are still double what they were during 2021, and everyone and their grandma now wants to invest in real estate, making more competition for these outdated homes. So, one big question presents itself: Does the BRRRR method still work in 2024? And, if it does, what are some ways to beat the competition and score a seriously good deal, no matter the mortgage rate? Well, we’ve got the man who literally wrote the BRRRR book on the show—our very own David Greene! David is giving his time-tested insider tips on how to build wealth with BRRRR, create more equity on your next home rehab, which new loans make BRRRR much better in 2024, and why you CAN’T rely on cash flow anymore, but you can rely on something MUCH more beneficial. Ready to get your first (or next) BRRRR done in 2024? This is the episode for you! In This Episode We Cover: The BRRRR method (buy, rehab, rent, refinance, repeat) explained Whether or not you can still do a BRRRR in 2024 (and if it’s even worth it) New types of loans for BRRRRs that make buying and cash-out refinancing MUCH easier  Cost-cutting rehab tips to make sure you don’t go over budget on your next home renovation The not-so-basic “value-add” potential you NEED to look for in your next BRRRR property Massive tax benefits, long-term wealth, future cash flow, and more upsides of doing a BRRRR in 2024 And So Much More!

Asset prices are falling, mortgage rates are still high, banks aren’t taking on new loans, and every real estate “expert” thinks that the multifamily space is full of dead deals. If this was so true, then how did Brian Adamson build a multimillion-dollar, 120-unit portfolio with plenty of cash flow and seven figures in equity all in the past four years, a time of tremendous booms and busts in the multifamily market? Well, he’s about to show you! Brian started investing before The Great Recession but didn’t walk away from the housing crash unscathed. Thankfully, a few upside-down properties didn’t stop him from investing as he continued to do wholesaling and fix and flip deals from 2008 onwards. But, in 2020, he had a calling to start investing in multifamily during a hot market and in areas most real estate investors would run from. Fast forward close to four years later, and Brian has a rental property portfolio of over one hundred units, with tens of thousands in cash flow coming in every month and millions in equity. He bought when he shouldn’t have, in places investors run from, with loans even top investors refuse to use, but he came out on top. In this episode, he’ll break down his exact strategy, what and where he’s buying, and how much money he’s making, plus some real estate markets he’s bullish on in 2024. In This Episode We Cover: Massive multifamily deals that are making Brian a millionaire even during a down market A failed first multifamily attempt that cost Brian tens of thousands of dollars Investing in markets that most investors would NEVER even consider  The exact rent, cash flow, and equity numbers Brian looks at before buying How to use bridge loans to cover your rehab costs on a home-run deal Real estate investing markets that Brian is bullish on in 2024  And So Much More!

If you don’t get these steps down, you can kiss your dreams of financial freedom goodbye. We’ll touch on how to define your investing goals to get what you REALLY want out of life, how to evaluate whether or not you’re even in a financial position to invest, how to fix your bad finances if they’re not up to shape, building a solid emergency reserve for when things go wrong, and what the experts say you NEED to know before you invest in 2024. In This Episode We Cover: The six beginner steps EVERY investor must take before buying an investment property Investing with the end in mind and deciding what you really want: money or time? Budgeting, getting rid of bad debt, and how to make and save more money to invest  Building emergency reserves and why skipping on this is a costly mistake that could set you back years EXACTLY what you need to know before investing (if you can’t answer these questions, you should NOT invest) Tips to get you to your first rental property even faster  And So Much More!

Before, buying a rental or two and repeating the process for a few years was all you had to do to find financial independence and retire early, sipping fruity drinks on the beach without a worry in the world. But now, that's over. The days of easy passive income are gone, but a new path to wealth is beginning to emerge, one that will still lead you to millionaire status if you’re strong enough (and smart enough) to take it. It’s the 900th episode of the BiggerPockets Real Estate podcast, and this is no ordinary show. We brought out the big guns this time. Brian Burke, J Scott, and Scott Trench, all time-tested investors, join us to share the truth about real estate investing in 2024 and answer the question we’re all thinking: “Is it still possible to reach financial freedom with real estate?” But that’s not all. We’re getting their takes on whether or not to wait for lower mortgage rates with monthly payments still sky-high, which strategies are working for them in 2024, which investors will get burnt during this investing cycle, and what a new investor can start doing TODAY to become a millionaire in the next decade. Plus, they share why investors should be fearful now more than ever and why the get-rich-quick influencers are about to get the wake-up call of a lifetime. In This Episode We Cover: Whether or not financial freedom is still achievable through real estate in 2024 Why waiting for mortgage rates to drop might not be the best move to make Investing strategies that are making money RIGHT NOW (and which to avoid) Why investors MUST have more “fear” if they want to survive in this market The slow, steady path to building wealth with real estate (this WORKS in 2024) What new investors should do RIGHT NOW if they want to get in the game And So Much More!

But which home renovations have the best bang for your buck? We’ve got pro house flippers James Dainard and Jessie Rodriguez back on the show to give their insider tips on the home upgrades that could get you up to a 400% return on your money and the interior renovations they NEVER skip during a house flip. Last time, we talked about the exterior renovations that can make your house stand out from the rest during a busy buying season (If you missed it, click here to take a listen). This time, we’re taking our shoes off and heading inside, talking about the best kitchen, bedroom, and bathroom upgrades that offer huge returns for often just hundreds of dollars. So, even if you don’t have the budget to add new rooms, you can still pull out thousands more in extra equity with these quick interior fixes.  But if you do have a chunk of change set aside, we’ll also get into adding bedrooms and bathrooms as well as opening up more living space so you can wow buyers (or an appraiser) as soon as they step through the door. Plus, the not-so-sexy but certainly necessary upgrades you’d NEED to pass an inspection! In This Episode We Cover: The most overlooked home renovations that don’t cost much but can increase your property’s value Whether an “open-concept” floor plan is still worth it in 2024  The one kitchen renovation that could give you a 400% return on your investment A pro tip to save over thirty percent on this one crucial bathroom upgrade  When to add bedrooms and bathrooms to a home (and the return you can expect on additions)  When to replace an old water heater, furnace, or electrical panel so you DON’T get flagged during an inspection And So Much More!

Where am I going to find a property like that?” you say. What if we told you that instead of finding a home-run rental property, you could build a better one? Now, not only do you have some instant equity once the house is built, but you also deal with none of the expensive capital expenditures, regular repairs, and common headaches that come with owning an older home. And you can do this even in the most expensive of markets. When Lacey Russell was looking for an investor-friendly agent, she turned to BiggerPockets Agent Finder, where she found her rockstar real estate agent, Sam Haack. Together, they realized that building a new construction rental worked FAR better than buying one, so Sam scoped the market for investor-friendly builders, and now, they’re off to the races. They’ll go through the full numbers of this real estate deal, from land costs to loans, equity forecasts, cash flow, and more! Want to find an agent just like Sam? Hop on the BiggerPockets Agent Finder, answer a few questions, and get matched with investor-friendly agents in your area!  In This Episode We Cover: How to find profitable real estate deals when your market is VERY expensive or has no inventory When building rentals beats buying them and how much instant equity you can make How to find an investor-friendly agent no matter your real estate market The type of lender to look for that’ll get you a lower mortgage rate  Finding a builder in your area that’ll work with your investor-first numbers What you MUST tell your real estate agent in the beginning to find success together And So Much More!

The answer is pretty simple: rental properties. Whether you plan on keeping them or giving them to your children later in life, rental properties are one of the best ways to secure generational wealth for your children, their children, and many generations to come. But how do you give your kids everything while ensuring they stay hard-working, frugal, and financially savvy? We’re gonna show you how. Welcome back to Seeing Greene, where David, Rob, and special guest James Dainard answer your legacy-building questions. First, Falisha wants to know how to create generational wealth for her children. James gives an interesting take on why he’s NOT giving his kids rental properties but doing something that’ll make buying a home MUCH easier when they come of age. An investor on the BiggerPockets forums asks when to put appreciation over cash flow, an almost-financially-free investor wonders when he should go full-time into real estate, and a young investor wants to know how to start investing in real estate when his local market is too expensive. Want to ask David a question? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene. Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can jump on a live Q&amp;A and get your question answered on the spot! In This Episode We Cover: How to start creating generational wealth and set your kids up for LIFE! Getting around estate taxes by putting your assets in a trust  Cash flow vs. appreciation and when breaking even is actually a major win When to leave your job to become a full-time real estate investor (think TWICE about this) The easiest way to start investing in real estate, especially when you have little money or experience  Investing in townhomes and the one BIG expense most investors overlook  And So Much More!

Or, if you’re not selling, how do you rake in even more equity during a hot housing market? If you have some time, a bit of money, and the knowledge from this episode, you can instantly increase your home value through some standard home renovations.

Insurance premiums are skyrocketing, costs to build are rising, and your reserves need to be bigger than ever. Tornados, hurricanes, fires, and floods threaten your properties, so how do you protect yourself from what’s coming? Where are the least-affected areas, and how do you ensure your rental property portfolio doesn’t go up in flames or get drowned out by the rising tide? Moody’s Analytics’s Natalie Ambrosio Preudhomme is on this BiggerNews to talk about one thing—climate catastrophes. Natalie spends her days looking through data on the financial implications of climate risk and how she can better help real estate investors navigate around or outright avoid the most devastating effects to come. Plus, researching what you can do to prevent property damage if you're in an at-risk area.  Natalie outlines how climate risk will force more local governments to increase regulations (and fines), the safest investing areas in the country, and whether the sky-high insurance premiums can continue. Whether you’ve got rentals, commercial real estate, or just own your own home, these risks WILL affect you, so pay close attention to Natalie’s insight. In This Episode We Cover: The financial implications of severe climate risk that go FAR beyond just rising insurance prices  New government-enforced emission regulations that will affect businesses  The areas of the country that will be least exposed to rising climate risk  The skyrocketing price of insurance premiums and why Natalie says something’s got to give Could the cost of construction rise as new energy-efficient homes become the standard?

Her secret to success? The “build-to-rent” strategy that so many real estate investors won’t even consider. Most investors feel that the building process is too complicated, expensive, and requires too much effort to be worth the time. But what if this “build-to-rent” strategy allowed you to create your own profitable deals, make massive amounts of equity, and build wealth even in a highly competitive market? After her parents shared their secret strategy to build wealth, Natalie realized that building rentals, not buying them, was her ticket to financial freedom. But how could she get started? She was a fresh college graduate with no money to her name. Thanks to a no-money-down construction loan, Natalie built her first rental property, a house hack, which ignited her multimillion-dollar real estate portfolio. In today’s show, she shares her “super secret method” to “building” wealth with the build-to-rent strategy, how to CREATE your own deals in ANY market, what you can expect to pay for a new construction home, how to find land to build on, and the biggest challenge that stops most investors from getting started (you CAN get around this!). Plus, how she’s doing it all in Canada’s unbelievably unaffordable housing market. In This Episode We Cover: The build-to-rent strategy and why building trumps buying in 2024  The EASIEST way to get into new construction (copy Natalie’s move!) How much you can expect to put down when building a new construction rental Tips to make your new construction rentals cost-effective and save tens of thousands  Where to find land to build on (it’s not as hard as you think)  The one move that will make building a rental MUCH easier for you  And So Much More!

On this Seeing Greene, David gives his take on what someone with no rentals (or real estate at all) can do with their retirement accounts to successfully retire on real estate. But maybe you have a bit more experience or aren’t such a late starter. Don’t worry, we’ve got plenty for you too.  We’re back as David takes investing questions directly from listeners just like you. In this Seeing Greene episode, a house hacker asks whether he should take out a HELOC or hard money loan to get his next deal done. A late starter wonders what she can do to retire with real estate, even with zero experience investing. David shows YOU how to negotiate with your lender to get a better rate or term on your home loan and use “portfolio architecture” to put your “lazy” equity to work so you build wealth faster!  Want to ask David a question? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene. Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can jump on a live Q&amp;A and get your question answered on the spot!   In This Episode We Cover HELOCs vs. hard money loans and the not-so-obvious way to fund your next deal How to retire with real estate as a later starter with no experience in rental property investing Buying a house in all-cash and why now may be the perfect time to do so (if you can!) Negotiating loan terms with your bank/lender and how to get a lower rate and better terms Portfolio architecture and how to use your equity to design a rental property portfolio that produces the most wealth possible  And So Much More!

These secrets could save you tens of thousands of dollars on your next home purchase, and most buyers have no clue about them. In fact, these secrets are so rarely used that most agents don’t know how to take advantage of them until it’s too late. Today, we’ll unlock the best-kept negotiation secret in real estate investing: negotiating AFTER your offer has been accepted.  New investors and first-time homebuyers think the time to negotiate is BEFORE their offer gets accepted, but this couldn’t be further from the truth. Once an offer is accepted, buyers unknowingly gain a TON of leverage—leverage that can be used to get seller credits, a reduced purchase price, concessions, and more. And this isn’t just some negotiation theory that works only in psychology textbooks. David has used these tactics NUMEROUS times to save his clients thousands of dollars and get them EXACTLY what they want out of the seller. And if you’re a seller, the reverse works in your favor. Knowing these negotiation tactics can help you STOP buyers from taking control once you’re under contract, giving you the upper hand while they struggle to find faults in your house. So, if you’re about to buy a property, are under contract right now, or WANT to invest in the future, these negotiation secrets MUST be followed to score a great deal. In This Episode We Cover: How to negotiate a real estate deal when you’re ALREADY under contract  The two stages of negotiation that most buyers/sellers have zero clue about Home inspection red flags that CANNOT be ignored (and can get you HUGE seller credits) The one thing you never, EVER ask a seller to do when under contract Seller disclosures 101 and what sellers must tell you about a home before you buy How to get a lower price, seller credits, or concessions while mid-contract  The one thing sellers should ALWAYS do (but DON’T) before they accept any offer  And So Much More!

(Do NOT File…Yet) w/Brandon Hall</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/890-100-bonus-depreciation-coming-back-do-not-file-yet-w-brandon-hall--75654697</link><description><![CDATA[The biggest real estate tax deduction is coming back. That’s right—100% bonus depreciation is almost cleared for a triumphant return as the House pushed a new tax bill to the Senate, one that includes some massive tax deduction potential for real estate investors and everyday Americans alike. So, why is this SUCH a big deal? We’ve got Brandon Hall, CPA, on to break down why bonus depreciation could save you tens, if not hundreds, of thousands of dollars. Everyone knows that real estate boasts some of the best tax benefits of any investment in the nation. But, the one tax benefit to rule them all is almost always depreciation. This tax write-off lets you expense a portion of your property every year and can turn your real-life gain into a paper loss, so you keep your cash flow while avoiding taxes. But bonus depreciation is like regular depreciation on steroids. And the tax benefits can be massive. So, how do you take advantage of this huge tax write-off? What do you need to know BEFORE you take it? And should you hold off on filing before this new bill passes? We’ve got answers to all that and much more in this episode, so stick around!  In This Episode We Cover: Four of the hottest housing markets in 2024 that we’d flip houses or long-term invest in The high-priced coastal market that we love…but wouldn’t buy rentals in A snowy northeast market that has low prices and big rent-by-the-room potential  A sleeper city with a big price tag but solid investing benefits The not-so-sexy market that made the number-one spot and surprised us all Unemployment rates, home prices, average rents, and top metrics you MUST check before investing And So Much More!

There’s a MUCH better way to build wealth. And we mean that literally, “building” wealth is the best path. At just twenty-seven years old, today's guest has built twenty-five homes, often making around a one-hundred percent return on his money, all without the hassle of the creaky floors, poor piping, and outdated electricals of old, “cash-flowing” rental properties. So, how is he doing it? Donovan Adesoro bought his first duplex in 2020. He took advantage of a zero percent down loan program, allowing him house hack a new build for just $3,000 out of pocket. But once he saw how much equity he could make, he realized he had to do more. So, Donovan linked up with other investors, overseeing the new build process in exchange for capital to buy land. He then used the plots of land as collateral for his new construction loans, and within six months, Donovan was the proud owner of a brand new duplex with TONS of equity included. But if you’re like most investors, you know NOTHING about new construction. Thankfully, Donovan, who wasn’t a builder by trade, breaks down the entire building, funding, and capital-raising process so you can repeat his system and start building your wealth instead of buying it! Plus, Donovan gives ACTUAL numbers on what he’s making for every new home and some expert tips on lowering your costs while selling for a high price! In This Episode We Cover: How to build a new construction rental and make a HUGE equity gain Whether or not new construction is STILL worth it in 2024 with higher prices Why you should build DUPLEXES over single-family homes, triplexes, or bigger properties How Donovan raised private capital almost entirely through social media The new build process, from laying the foundation to finishing and beyond How to save a TON of money with tiny square footage tweaks  And So Much More!

Before you pull the trigger, you’ll want to hear today’s episode because you could be making a big mistake. Speaking of buying, are future rate cuts going to push mortgage rates down so low that buyers and bidding wars flood the market? Is this your last chance to get in before home prices shoot back up? Don’t worry; we’re getting to all these questions in this week’s Seeing Greene. David is back and better/balder than ever as he answers your real estate investing questions. First, a young house hacker wants to know what he should do when there are no good deals in his area. Then, another young investor debates whether they should buy a rental or invest in stocks instead. Unfortunately, there’s one big problem he’s overlooking. A new investor wonders if she should dump her ENTIRE savings into a second home, and a realtor asks for lead generation tips. Finally, David gives his take on what will happen when mortgage rates finally fall this year.  Want to ask David a question? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene. Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can jump on a live Q&amp;A and get your question answered on the spot!

If you’re like many Americans, your own backyard may not offer what you want out of an investing area. So, where do you go to find cash flow or appreciation? Today, we’re walking you through choosing a real estate investing market, the metrics to look for, signs of growth and decline, and which markets offer investors the biggest benefits. How hard is it to do market research? If you have access to the internet, you can research a market in a matter of minutes. But knowing WHAT to research is the most crucial part. Dave Meyer, VP of Market Intelligence at BiggerPockets and host of the On the Market podcast, shares his steps to market analysis and how he analyzes each market to ensure it’ll make him the most money in the long run. We’ll touch on population and migration, supply and demand, vacancy rates, rent-to-price ratios, landlord vs. tenant-friendly states, and the telltale signs that a market will have high or low cash flow. So before you buy your first or next rental property, make sure you do THIS research! In This Episode We Cover: How to choose a real estate market in 2024 (market analysis 101) The market “fundamentals” that show whether an area is worth investing in Vacancy rates and signs that you’ll have a HARD time finding tenants  The 1% rule and whether or not we’d still use it in 2024 Cash flow vs. appreciation markets and who should NOT be chasing cash flow Tenant vs. landlord-friendly states and how to quickly tell which is which And So Much More!

But there's one huge threat on the horizon no one is watching. With layoffs and bankruptcies already starting to tick up, a new wave of misfortune could hit consumers EVEN as inflation cools, interest rates begin to drop, and asset prices hit an all-time high. What's coming for us that only the most economically inclined know about? We're about to break it down on this BiggerNews.  J Scott, investing legend and author of too many real estate books to name, is back on the show to talk about housing crashes, economic predictions, mortgage rates, consumer sentiment, and the silent threat to the US economy that nobody is thinking about. J knows the game better than most and is the furthest thing from a bubble boy or permabull. He’s got his finger on the economic pulse and uses the most up-to-date economic data to form his opinions. On today's episode, J shares whether or not he believes another housing crash is coming, how America could become a "renter nation" over the next decade, whether or not home prices will stay high once rates drop, how low mortgage rates could go in 2024, and the biggest economic risk to businesses, employees, and anyone operating in the US economy.  In This Episode We Cover: The likelihood of another housing crash, especially if America falls into a recession  A silent risk to the US economy that could hit everyday Americans hard  Why Americans are pessimistic about the economy but spending more than ever  The economic "musical chairs" which must come to a stop sometime soon  Why home prices could continue to rise as mortgage rates begin to fall  Mortgage rate predictions and J's forecast for how low they'll go in 2024 The big bank bailout program that could be coming to a close   And So Much More!

You never walk into a bank and see a “hard money” sign, and if you aren’t outwardly searching for it, you’d probably never know hard money was a thing. That’s because hard money isn’t coming from a bank or big institution, and because of that, it has some HUGE benefits over getting a standard loan. Better loan-to-value ratios, higher lending amounts, faster funding, and the ability to get a loan on a ROUGH property are just a few. So, how do YOU find your first or next hard money loan? We’ve got Will Heaton from Heaton Dainard Real Estate on the show to share his experience as a hard money lender and investor for the past two decades. Will has been on both sides of hard money—he’s been the lender and the borrower, but now primarily focuses on lending to OTHER investors trying to build their fix and flip businesses or real estate portfolios. Will walks us through what hard money is, why it often beats bank loans, how much it costs, the hard money lending process from start to finish, and how to BECOME a hard money lender if you’ve got too much cash in the bank and want to make a solid return. Plus, who should and definitely should not be using hard money to invest in real estate. Having trouble getting your fix and flips or BRRRRs funded? Stick around because hard money may be your best bet.  In This Episode We Cover: Hard money loans explained and which investors should choose it over a bank loan Common hard money fees, interest rates, and payoff periods  The hard money process, from getting preapproved to paying back the loan How to become a hard money lender yourself and put your cash to work  The hard money “draw” process and when you can expect to get your money from a lender  What happens if you DON’T pay back your hard money loan  And So Much More!

The cherry on top? She’s making a huge profit while doing it. In 2005, during Hurricane Katrina, Terrica Lynn Smith couldn’t scrounge up a few hundred dollars to evacuate her and her two children from New Orleans. After this traumatic event, Terrica was determined to break the curse of generational poverty and create a better financial future for her family. Little did she know that she would be creating a better life for countless people in her community as well. After seven failed attempts, Terrica passed her real estate exam and started selling homes. She jumped at any opportunity to learn something new, which allowed her to advance from a real estate agent to an investor, and finally, to a developer. If you want to have a powerful impact with real estate but lack the resources to do it, this episode is for you. Terrica provides the blueprint for delivering affordable housing to your community at a profit. She also shares the best ways to bring value to a real estate investing partnership, how to get bank financing for large developments, and why cultivating the right mindset is so crucial to your success as an investor!

The man of the people is back for another Seeing Greene-style show! This time, David is answering questions from new investors, experienced investors, and everyone in between. First, we’ll hear from an investor who’s wondering about the value of a low mortgage rate, especially when buying a new build. Is a lower rate worth a higher price? Then, David tells you how to convert your home equity into a new investment property and what you MUST know before getting into commercial real estate. A college student wants to know how to use his $20K savings, and a “late starter” searches for cash flow in a market that’s dry as a desert! Want to ask David a question? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene. Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can jump on a live Q&amp;A and get your question answered on the spot! In This Episode We Cover: What to do with $20,000 if you want to start investing in real estate How to create cash flow when rental properties DON’T profit in your market Using your home equity to invest in BIG properties (commercial real estate investing 101) Why a low mortgage rate ISN’T everything and other factors you MUST check before you buy a deal The tricky mortgages you MUST look over BEFORE you sign (you could be surprised!)

Great, because today we’re showing you how to use home equity to invest in real estate, even if you’re low on cash. But maybe you’re still saving up to buy your first property. Well, we’ve got you covered; we’re also sharing the TOP ways to use your retirement accounts—your Roth IRA or 401(k)—to invest faster than ever before and even lock down your first property in 2024!  Joining the show is Kyle Mast, fellow real estate investor and CFP, to talk about all the ways you can invest in real estate that you didn’t even know about. And if you’re like many Americans, you’ve got home equity just sitting there, waiting to be used, so today, we’re walking through how to unlock it so you can build wealth faster, retire earlier, or renovate that rental you just bought!  Kyle goes over the multiple ways to finance these investments using a home equity line of credit (HELOC) or retirement accounts like Roth IRAs and 401(k)s, the special program new homebuyers can use to get their first house faster, and why you DON’T want to cash-out refinance your property just yet. Ready to start? Let’s get into it!   In This Episode We Cover How to use home equity or retirement accounts to invest in real estate  Cash-out refinances vs. HELOCs and the EASY choice in today’s high-rate environment  How to qualify for a HELOC and whether you can get one on your rental property  The 401(k) loan where YOU act as the bank and what to watch for BEFORE you get one The first-time homebuyer cheat code that lets you access retirement funds with NO penalty  How to make COMPLETELY passive income by “lending” your home equity  And So Much More!

But with so many home loans available, which is the right one to pick? Do you go FHA or conventional? Do you work with your local bank or call a broker? How much can you even afford? These questions alone might put you into analysis paralysis, so today, we’re breaking down what it takes to get a home loan, how much YOU can qualify for, and the best real estate investment for beginners. To demystify the home loan process is David Mackin—the third David in today’s episode—mortgage broker, house hacker, and home loan expert. He knows what you need to qualify for a mortgage in 2024 because he qualifies buyers all day long. David shares how YOU can determine how much home you can afford, why you’re getting different mortgage rates from different lenders, and how to find cash flow in your market by reverse engineering your real estate calculations. And, if you’re looking for the easiest, lowest cost, and arguably best way to get into real estate in 2024, this episode is for you. We’ll break down why house hacking has become the new norm and why skipping out on it can cost you BIG in your real estate investing journey. In This Episode We Cover: The simple calculation to estimate how much home you can afford in 2024 Getting pre-approved for a mortgage and why credit score ISN’T as crucial as you think The danger behind getting a low mortgage rate and signs that your lender isn’t experienced Debt-to-income (DTI) and two factors that can throw your home loan completely off track Why house hacking is the BEST way to start investing in real estate (especially with high home prices) And So Much More!

After flipping over SIX HUNDRED houses and building a BIG real estate portfolio, he knows a thing or two about where to buy, which markets make the most sense, and what type of house is worth the risk. That’s why, instead of doing multimillion-dollar luxury flips, Antoine decided to do “micro-flips” in affordable markets, with a staggering rate of success.    What is "micro-flipping?" If you’re a beginner investor like Antoine, starting out with only $40,000, buying in the big cities won’t work. So, instead, Antoine found the real estate markets with low prices, high demand, and LOTS of deals so he could get his money back faster and keep repeating the system. These low-risk “micro-flips” all-in often cost less than a down payment, but they can give beginner investors the snowball effect they need to start building wealth.   Shortly after seeing massive success with his “micro-flips,” Antoine ran out of deals and decided to move into more markets. From there, he developed a detailed system that ANYONE can copy to pinpoint America's BEST real estate investing markets. And if you stick around, you’ll learn how to do it, too!   In This Episode We Cover How to find the best real estate markets in the country, just like Antoine  The “micro-flipping” strategy that beginner investors can use to start building wealth WITHOUT a big investment  How to use the BRRRR method to turn one property into an entire passive income portfolio  How to “test” your long-distance real estate investing market and ensure it’ll be worth investing in  The home renovation budget “sweet spot” that has ninety-six percent accuracy on ANY flip or BRRRR  And So Much More!

With more debt coming due, expenses rising, incomes falling, and owners feeling desperate, there’s only so much longer that these high multifamily prices can last. Over the past year, expert multifamily investors like Brian Burke and Matt Faircloth have been sitting and waiting for a worthwhile deal to pop up, but after analyzing hundreds of properties, NOTHING would work. How bad IS the multifamily market right now? Brian and Matt are back on the podcast to give their take on the multifamily real estate market. Brian sees a “day of reckoning” coming for multifamily owners as low-interest debt comes due, banks get desperate to be paid, and investors run out of patience. On the other hand, Matt is a bit more optimistic but still thinks price cuts are coming as inexperienced and overconfident investors get pushed out of the market. So, how does this information help you build wealth? In this episode, Brian and Matt share the state of the 2024 multifamily market, explain exactly what they’ve been doing to find deals, and give their strategy for THIS year that you can copy to scoop up real estate deals at a steep discount. Wealth is built in the bad markets, so don’t skip out on this one! In This Episode We Cover: The state of multifamily real estate in 2024 and how low prices could go A “day of reckoning” coming for inexperienced/overleveraged multifamily owners Whether or not we’ve reached the bottom for multifamily price drops  What rookie real estate investors should do NOW to take advantage of this down market Rising mortgage rates and how increased costs have KILLED many multifamily deals Exactly what Brian and Matt are investing in during 2024 to make money no matter how the market moves And So Much More!

Every winter, millions of freezing northerners go south, seeking a temporary escape from the cold and to dethaw themselves before returning in spring. And while you may think that most of these destinations are expensive cities, like Miami, there are some cheaper areas that make not only perfect snowbird rental markets, but profitable year-round short-term rental markets as well. On this BiggerNews, Vacasa’s Kristen Taylor joins us to give her take on the markets with the most demand and the once-popular markets starting to see declines, including a top-rated tourist destination you wouldn’t expect. Kristen shares updated numbers on how long snowbird season lasts, how the typical snowbird is changing, and why snowbird markets can be MUCH more affordable than year-round vacation destinations. And if you’ve got equity in one of YOUR properties that you’d like to turn into snowbird rental property, stick around until the end. This episode’s Seeing Greene segment will answer the age-old question: what do I do with all my home equity? In This Episode We Cover: Snowbird season explained, how long it lasts, and who’s flying south The top snowbird markets in America (and why some are MUCH cheaper than you’d expect) Snowbird markets to stay away from that are seeing declining vacation populations  Combining medium-term and short-term stays to make money the entire YEAR (unlike many short-term rentals)  What to do with a property with a LOT of home equity: sell, get a HELOC, refinance, or keep it?

How many rental properties would you have to buy? Most real estate investors think they’d need twenty, thirty, fifty, or a hundred units to finally retire with a six-figure passive income stream, but that could take decades to achieve. So, how do you do it faster? How do you build massive passive income, monstrous cash flow, and find financial independence fast? Follow Kate Lynch’s advice. Three years ago, Kate was working…a LOT. Seventy-hour work weeks were the norm as she left the house before sunrise and returned well past sunset. Her family time was non-existent, moments with her kids were only reserved for the weekends, and her job controlled every aspect of her life. And while she was getting compensated fairly for the work she was putting in, watching her family time fly by was too much of a burden to bear. So, a rental property portfolio became the goal. Kate bought in a completely unconventional area for her strategy, focusing entirely on cash flow, not caring much about equity, and doing whatever she could to replace her outrageous W2 income. Now, just three years later, she’s financially free, and if you follow her steps and only make a THIRD of what she’s making, you will be too! In This Episode We Cover: How to get off the “hamster wheel” of working a W2 job and find financial freedom Using your retirement funds to invest in real estate (and whether or not it’s worth it) The unconventional short-term rental markets that make HUGE cash flow Buying homes with “negative equity” and how they can make you massive passive income  Long-term vs. short-term rentals and whether the extra cash flow is worth more work And So Much More!

And while she was getting compensated fairly for the work she was putting in, watching her family time fly by was too much of a burden to bear. So, a rental property portfolio became the goal. Kate bought in a completely unconventional area for her strategy, focusing entirely on cash flow, not caring much about equity, and doing whatever she could to replace her outrageous W2 income. Now, just three years later, she’s financially free, and if you follow her steps and only make a THIRD of what she’s making, you will be too! In This Episode We Cover: How to get off the “hamster wheel” of working a W2 job and find financial freedom Using your retirement funds to invest in real estate (and whether or not it’s worth it) The unconventional short-term rental markets that make HUGE cash flow Buying homes with “negative equity” and how they can make you massive passive income  Long-term vs. short-term rentals and whether the extra cash flow is worth more work And So Much More!

Maybe you’re upsizing or downsizing, moving away for work, or just want to buy another primary residence and take advantage of low-money down loans. Whatever your reason, renting out your primary home can be a phenomenal way to get into the real estate investing game. You’ll make passive income, all while holding on to the equity in your home and appreciation potential. So, how do you start? David, Henry, and Rob are all on the show today to give you a step-by-step guide to turning your primary residence into a rental property. Hundreds of properties have been owned between these three investing experts, and all of them have turned their primary residences into rental properties multiple times. But before you rent out your home, you’ll need to know if your home is even rentable. We’ll tell you exactly what you need to know to decide whether or not your home would make a good rental, how to make the most money possible off your home with affordable finishes, added amenities, and upgrades, how to decrease your liability and keep your property safe, insuring your rental, screening tenants, collecting rent, and more. If you’re a beginner landlord or are renting out your home for the first time, you CANNOT miss this. In This Episode We Cover: How to convert your primary residence into a rental property  How to know whether or not your home would even make a profitable rental  Areas to invest in and what potential renters will look for Long-term vs. short-term rental investing and how to know which works best for your home Affordable finishes and amenities you can add to rent out your home for more What you MUST fix in your home to keep your liability as low as possible Landlord insurance and the one added policy you (probably) should get How to screen tenants, collect rent, and get substantial tax benefits Whether to invest in out-of-state rentals or buy property in your backyard And So Much More!

Over the past few years, online crash predictors shouted from the rooftops about how another foreclosure crisis is always on the way, and we’re only months from a full-on meltdown. How much of this is true, and how much of it is pure clickbait? We’ve got Rick Sharga, Founder and CEO of CJ Patrick Company, one of the world’s leading housing market intelligence and advisory firms, on the show to tell us what the data points to. Ever since the pause on foreclosures during the pandemic, homeowners have been getting win after win. They were able to save up plenty of cash, their home values skyrocketed, and they could refinance at the lowest mortgage rates on record. Now, with high rates, still high home prices, and steady demand, homeowners have most of the power, EVEN if they’re behind on payments. But, as the economy starts to soften, could the tapped-out consumer finally force some homeowners to default on their loans? In this BiggerNews episode, Rick will give us all the details on today’s current foreclosure landscape, walk us through the three levels of foreclosures, give his 2024 foreclosure prediction, and share the economic indicators to watch that could signal a coming foreclosure crisis.  In This Episode We Cover: A 2024 update on foreclosure rates, defaults, and Rick’s foreclosure forecast for next year The three levels of foreclosure and why most homes WON’T ever be defaulted on Rising consumer debt and what happens as more Americans default on their credit card and auto loans Housing supply and whether or not a foreclosure crisis could finally give us some inventory Economic indicators to watch that could signal a rise in foreclosures How to use your home equity to invest in real estate (WITHOUT putting yourself at too much risk!)

With mortgage rates dropping, listings increasing, and spring buying season only a short couple of months away, NOW is the time to act before bidding wars start up again. With so much pent-up buyer demand, agents and lenders are already seeing a spike in activity, and we haven’t even gotten to spring. So, if you want to know how to buy a house in 2024, even with fierce competition, we’re here to help. Avery Carl, short-term rental expert and agent, and Caeli Ridge, President at Ridge Lending Group, join us to talk about what they’re seeing in the market NOW, what their housing market predictions are as buying season heats back up, and whether or not now is even the time to buy. Both Avery and Caeli work heavily with investors, so they know what does and doesn’t work when buying a rental property, NOT just a primary residence. We’ll touch on the hottest markets that could see the most competition, why rookie investors need to snap out of analysis paralysis to win in 2024, and why this buying season could become red-hot in just a few months. Plus, David and Rob will answer a listener’s question about how to win in a competitive market without having the highest bid. In This Episode We Cover: “Buying season” and why spring 2024 could bring back the hot housing market  Most active real estate markets that are seeing inventory fly off the MLS Why mortgage rates are NOT as important as you think they are The “great stalemate” and what could cause homeowners to finally list their houses Whether to buy or wait and the risk of holding out for lower mortgage rates How to beat other buyers when bidding for investment properties And So Much More!

Well, if you’re willing to get a bit creative, you too can build a real estate portfolio that will lead you to hundreds of thousands of dollars a year in passive income, even if you start with little money or experience. Dedric and Krystal Polite are wholesalers, buy and hold rental investors, house flippers, business builders, and, most importantly, husband and wife. After reading the personal finance classic Rich Dad Poor Dad, Dedric had a vision to become rich. It wasn’t until Krystal came into his life that he finally took the steps to realize that dream. Now, they own a massive income property portfolio and host A&amp;E’s 50/50 Flip. In today’s episode, you’ll hear how Dedric and Krystal started with no money, no passive income, and no business knowledge, how they built up their first wholesaling business, how they transitioned into rentals, and the new business they’re investing in that could make them millions. Plus, they give some solid tips on how to invest with a spouse and the question you MUST ask your partner now to make sure they’re willing to build wealth with you.  In This Episode We Cover: The no-money-down, zero-interest creative financing you can use to buy rentals TODAY Building multiple streams of income and why you CAN’T just wholesale and flip houses Investing in small businesses and building a $500K/year passive income stream  The real key to creating multigenerational wealth that’ll actually last  How to know whether or not you should invest with a partner or spouse  When you should (and definitely shouldn’t) use private money on your deals  And So Much More!

A stable or growing population, large employers nearby, tourism, and, as a bonus, college-educated residents. Put those all together, and you’ve just stumbled upon your next great real estate investing area: college football towns! After digging into the data, the On the Market panel discovered that many top college football markets aren’t just great for partying and tailgating; they’re also undeniably promising property markets! On today’s episode, Dave, Henry, James, and Kathy will uncover four of the BEST college football markets in the nation and share which ones they personally would invest in. Looking for cash flow? We’ve got a couple of markets. What about long-term appreciation? We have those, too! We even have one STRONG college football market that has seen prices drop off over the past two years, with HUGE potential for rising prices in the near future. If you’ve been waiting to buy your first or next rental property but don’t know where to invest and which metrics to watch, this is THE episode to listen to. The On the Market panel will explain exactly how they analyze each market, which ones make sense for which investor, and why you’ll want to score a deal in these cities before it’s too late! In This Episode We Cover: The four best real estate markets for cash flow, appreciation, and football  One expensive market with amazing house flipping profits and NO income tax  The boomtown market that's seeing BIG price drops but has massive appreciation potential Two cash flow real estate markets with low home prices and strong populations The metrics expert investors look at before they invest in ANY real estate market And So Much More!

With so much hate on the housing market from everyday people, why are expert investors buying more than ever? Do they know something that we don’t? Or is it just because they have more money and experience than the rookie real estate investor or first-time home buyer? Nope, it’s even more simple than that! We rounded up four housing market experts who actively invest to get their takes on the 2024 housing market. David Greene, expert investor; Rob Abasolo, the king of short-term rentals; Dave Meyer, host of On the Market, and Henry Washington, house flipper and buy and hold investor, are here to give us their takes on whether buying a home could a be good, bad, or ugly decision this year.  The experts also review top surveys that highlight consumer, home buyer, and investor sentiment, plus what they think the best move to make in 2024 is. Take it from four investors who have built considerable wealth through real estate; following the masses isn’t always your best bet.  In This Episode We Cover: Why most Americans think now is a BAD time to buy real estate  Rock-bottom consumer sentiment, rising credit card debt, and more 2024 economic headwinds  The split investor survey that shows why SO many investors are on the fence  The effects of falling mortgage rates and whether or not now is a good time to sell  Who should NOT be investing in real estate right now (or ever) The 2024 investing moves that could make you rich in the long-run  And So Much More!

As housing prices went up, commercial real estate prices went down. When primary mortgage rates were high, commercial mortgage rates were even higher. With record-setting vacancy rates in areas like office and less reliance on retail, many investors thought that commercial real estate was a dying asset class. But they weren’t entirely correct. Investors like Kim Hopkins had thriving commercial real estate success, EVEN during lockdowns and the pandemic. Kim’s secret sauce to her high cash-flow commercial real estate portfolio wasn’t in getting lucky—it was all in her “buy box.” Kim ONLY buys properties that can’t get shut down, in markets where they’ll thrive, with tons of customers nearby. And today, she’s sharing her exact formula with us! But that’s not all. Kim is currently debating doing one more deal before the year is up. This property looked like a home run on paper, but as she’s dug deep into it, the property may not be worth the price. From plumbing issues to overinflated income numbers, Kim uses David and Rob as coaches to help her decide whether this deal is worth doing. In This Episode We Cover: Kim’s commercial real estate investing “buy box” she uses to purchase profitable properties Cap rates explained and why you MUST get this right when buying big properties The inflated “pro forma” numbers brokers will try to convince you of (don’t follow these!) The types of commercial properties that are lockdown-resistant and always stay open The significant risks for commercial real estate in 2024 and two businesses you should NEVER rent to A live deal deep dive with a current deal Kim is debating on buying And So Much More!

You've all been good this year, so instead of a lump of coal, you're getting a special episode delivered on the most merry day of the year. We'll be sharing Yamundow Camara's unbelievable journey from dirt-poor poverty to INCREDIBLE passive income, even against all odds. If you're unsatisfied with your holiday gifts this season, listen to this episode—it may change your ENTIRE outlook on life and give you something to be extra grateful for today!  ______ How do you go from absolute poverty to passive income in a short amount of time? What if you were raised on the other side of the world, where even a basic education had to be fought for, and every opportunity was a constant struggle? This is the real story of Yamundow Camara, who went from sleeping on a dirt floor in a small village of Gambia to making a million dollars per year thanks to real estate. Yamundow grew up in an environment foreign to many of us. When her parents passed away in her youth, she was forced to live with relatives that treated her as a nuisance, not someone worth nurturing. She slept on the floor of her family’s home and was sometimes lucky enough to have a cardboard box as a mattress. She was set to be wed in her early teenage years, but thanks to her drive, determination, and pleading of her aunts, Yamundow was given a chance to go to high school and college and later immigrate to the US. From there, Yamundow put success as her sole focus. She not only academically overachieved, but was able to do an INCREDIBLE amount of investing with almost no money, no credit score, and no experience in the industry. She now sits on over thirty rental units, with a monthly income that rivals most Americans’ yearly salaries. Yamundow has one of the most incredible stories we’ve ever shared on the podcast, and you’ll have to tune in to hear her unimaginable path to success. In This Episode We Cover: How Yamundow went from complete poverty to making $80,000 in cash flow a month  Putting education first and the true value of hard work and perseverance  Investing with NO credit score and VERY little money and how to find banks that will lend to you Working two jobs and why increasing your income is ESSENTIAL to building wealth  Out-of-state real estate investing and what to do when your local market is too expensive  How to find (and keep) quality contractors, property managers, and other team members  Using the BiggerPockets Rental Property Calculators to make sure a deal is worth doing  And So Much More!

He knew picking up one rental property, let alone a multifamily, wouldn’t be cheap. But, somehow, even as a newcomer to the area, Remy was able to buy a rental property at a deep discount. He got three rental units for the price of two in a market with loads of investors and immense competition. How did he do it? We’re about to share the secret. In this episode of the BiggerPockets Real Estate podcast, we’re talking to out-of-state investor Remy, as well as Kim Meredith-Hampton, long-time real estate investor and Remy’s agent! Kim operates both in Tampa and Orlando, Florida, serving investor clients looking to buy in a state that has seen immense population growth. Seeking to take advantage of strong demographic trends, Remy picked Kim as his go-to Florida agent, and the rest is history. Remy and Kim will talk through the three-for-the-price-of-two deal they picked up in the very competitive Florida market and how they were able to get the deal done EVEN when financing fell through, LLC problems came up, and a hurricane froze the Florida state government. You’ll also hear about the final numbers of the deal and why Remy ISN’T counting on big cash flow BUT will make his riches another way from the rentals. In This Episode We Cover: Why so many Americans are flocking to the Florida housing market (and how to take advantage) Building your “buy box” and how to know what a great deal looks like Low cash flow and why banking on passive income ISN’T always a wise move  Why you should ALWAYS look for rental properties that come BACK on the market  Financing troubles and how Remy dealt with numerous housing hiccups Why waiting to invest will cost you and how to get started today!

It’s a day real estate investors have been eagerly awaiting. With lower mortgage rates on the horizon in 2024, buyers could gain more control of the housing market, and the seller standoff may finally break. What does this mean for the economy, and are we finally out of recession territory? On this BiggerNews episode, we’re breaking it all down! Joining David and Rob are James Dainard and Kathy Fettke from the On the Market podcast. Today, all four housing market experts bring a breaking headline to dive into. From the Fed’s proposed plan for 2024 mortgage rates to the new jobs report that shows optimistic signs for the economy, there is a LOT happening before the new year rolls around. But that’s not all we’ll touch on. A new bill targeting corporate landlords has been proposed, limiting the amount of hold hedge funds have on the housing market. But could this bill target ALL real estate investors, not just the Wall Street buyers?

It’s a day real estate investors have been eagerly awaiting. With lower mortgage rates on the horizon in 2024, buyers could gain more control of the housing market, and the seller standoff may finally break. What does this mean for the economy, and are we finally out of recession territory? On this BiggerNews episode, we’re breaking it all down! Joining David and Rob are James Dainard and Kathy Fettke from the On the Market podcast. Today, all four housing market experts bring a breaking headline to dive into. From the Fed’s proposed plan for 2024 mortgage rates to the new jobs report that shows optimistic signs for the economy, there is a LOT happening before the new year rolls around. But that’s not all we’ll touch on. A new bill targeting corporate landlords has been proposed, limiting the amount of hold hedge funds have on the housing market. But could this bill target ALL real estate investors, not just the Wall Street buyers? Finally, how the baby boomers bought the housing market and how their remarkable wealth has allowed them to make all-cash home purchases while the other generations sit on the sidelines. In This Episode We Cover: The Fed’s proposed 2024 rate cuts and effects on mortgage rates Recession fears and whether or not we’ll be able to achieve a “soft landing”  The new jobs report and the impact of a “cooling” labor market on employees and employers  Corporate landlords and the dangerous side effects of a new bill that is targeting hedge fund buyers The baby boomer housing market shopping spree and why they’re taking advantage as rates stay high  And So Much More!

Today, you’ll see just how easy it is to lose money on a bad real estate deal and how even the top investors, those with decades of experience, still can end up in a rough situation through no fault of their own. And while both the investors featured in this two-part series have made millions in real estate, they’ve also had a couple of deals gone wrong that have cost them hundreds of thousands. In this episode, we’re talking to Mindy Jensen, host of the BiggerPockets Money podcast, about, as she calls it, “the house that almost broke me.” This property alone lost Mindy over a quarter of a million dollars, as she had to deal with crooked contractors, a once-in-a-lifetime flood, theft, and more. If you want to ensure you NEVER repeat the same mistakes as Mindy, listen to this ENTIRE episode before buying your next house. And next time, we’ll be on with James Dainard, expert flipper and co-host of On the Market, to talk about his house flip that makes Mindy’s look like a walk in the park! In This Episode We Cover: How Mindy lost over $300,000 on ONE real estate investment The one “waiver” you MUST get signed before you hire a contractor DIY vs. hiring it out on home renovations and why Mindy does almost all her own work The “five-hundred-year flood” and the WRONG time to replace a roof Why you must have emergency reserves before you invest in ANY property And So Much More!

Do what Hunter Lawler did and take it step-by-step; within a few years, you, too, could be making over $100,000 in cash flow with just ten properties! But the only way you’ll get there is by thinking outside the box, buying properties most don’t even know about, and taking risks when talking to sellers. Hunter learned very early on that a college degree doesn’t guarantee a big paycheck. He was making a full-time income from his crawfish-selling side hustle when he decided to drop out. After seeing entrepreneurial success, Hunter pivoted and started investing in the sexiest, highest-priced properties ever…mobile homes. These dirt-cheap rentals gave him the sweat equity he needed to build a bigger portfolio. From mobile homes to single-family houses, self-storage facilities, and killer seller finance deals, this episode is a masterclass on how to grow a six-figure income stream without a college degree or hundreds of thousands in the bank! In This Episode We Cover How to build a six-figure income stream by buying cheap, low-risk rental properties Buying discounted houses at “sheriff sales” and what to know BEFORE you bid Mobile home investing and why it may be the easiest way to get into real estate  Commercial lines of credit, home equity, and how to turn your rentals into more mortgages  Self-storage investing and the hands-off system Hunter uses to create serious cash flow Seller financing and the simple way to convince a seller to take a fair price for their property  And So Much More!

If you invest in college towns, students will pay a premium to be close to campus and won’t mind living in a property with three, four, or five other roommates! This means you can squeeze six high-paying tenants into one single-family home. But more money means more problems, and your investment property could become a party house overnight. How do you keep the cash flow and avoid the headache? Let’s find out! David is back on Seeing Greene to answer your real estate investing questions, and his partner in crime, Rob Abasolo, joins in to add more investing firepower to this episode. This time, the dynamic duo will touch on student housing investments and whether fitting six (yes, six!) students under one roof is worth the risk. Then, how to invest when your DTI (debt-to-income) is too high. One investor asks whether a lease option is the best way to sell a property, and finally, we’ll finish with the great debate: pay down your mortgage early or save the money instead. Want to ask David a question? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene. Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can jump on a live Q&amp;A and get your question answered on the spot! In This Episode We Cover Investing in student housing and whether the huge cash flow is worth the headaches How to make sure your short-term rental or student housing DOESN’T become a party house How to fund your real estate deals when your DTI (debt-to-income) is too high  Selling properties via lease options and what could go wrong during the deal  Paying off your mortgage early vs. keeping the cash and saving instead  And So Much More!

For decades, cash flow has been king in the real estate investing realm. Investors were told NEVER to buy a rental property that didn’t bring in hundreds a month or at least break even. But now, this golden rule of real estate investing is broken, and there’s a FAR faster way to build wealth that sacrifices cash flow for something much more powerful. And this isn’t just some hypothesis or “what if” scenario. We have three investors today showcasing three real estate deals, ALL with negative cash flow and ALL with huge equity upside, 100% (or greater) returns, or profits that far outweigh what most investors even dream of achieving on their real estate deals. And if you do just a few of these deals the right way, you could reach financial freedom in a matter of years, not decades, like today’s guests. Join David Greene, James Dainard, and Mindy Jensen as they do their best to deprogram the masses from “cash-flow-only” investing and show you why negative cash flow isn’t always bad—in fact, it could be a sign of an unbelievable deal.  In This Episode We Cover: What is “negative” cash flow, and why TOP investors go for these deals ROE (return on equity): the one metric the ultra-successful pay attention to How James traded $800 a month for over $300,000 in equity (with ONE property) The danger of floating rate debt and how it can easily KILL your deals David’s $100 negative cash flow deal that INSTANTLY made him $90K The negative cash flow rules that you MUST follow And So Much More!

Why is cash flow SO hard to find? And what do you do when you overpay for a property? With so many ways to build wealth with real estate, you’ll also need to be aware of the pitfalls. If you don’t know what you’re doing, you could end up with a property you paid too much for, with no cash flow and empty pockets. Thankfully, this is BiggerPockets, so we’re going to give you all the tactics you need to make your next investment a home run. Put on your green-tinted goggles because David does NOT have a green light for this Seeing Greene episode. Due to this unforgivable offense, we brought another expert investor, Rob Abasolo, on to help David answer some of YOUR real estate investing questions. First, we hear from an investor who makes some great cash flow from her short-term rental but wonders if it’s worth all the work. Next, an investor finds out that his new build property is selling for a significant discount—can he get out of the deal? Similarly, an ADU (accessory dwelling unit) investor is looking to develop but doesn’t know the best way to finance his new construction. David also answers some questions from the comment section about why investors stopped chasing cash flow so much. And finally, a realtor is concerned about the amount of subto (subject to) “speculation” in today’s industry. Are his concerns legit? Stick around; we’ll get into it all in this episode!  In This Episode We Cover: How to automate your short-term rental so you do less work What to do when you realize you’ve overpaid for a property How to fund a new development with equity, construction loans, or both  Why cash flow is NOT the only thing to focus on anymore  Subject to speculation and whether overpaying to lock in a low rate is EVER worth it  And So Much More!

And this was ALL during one of the hottest real estate markets ever. The best part? You can do EXACTLY what Jason did to become a millionaire, too, so stick around to hear his FULL strategy!

Well, we have the opportunity for you! We’re about to make you a gazillionaire for the low, low price of your entire life savings. Don’t worry about doing any due diligence; just sign these papers without looking through them. You’re about to strike it rich!” Most people can call out an obvious scam or bad real estate deal, but what about the less-than-obvious signs? Today, we’ve got two multifamily real estate experts, Andrew Cushman and Matt Faircloth, on the show to go through the multifamily and syndication red flags that could cost you EVERYTHING. Andrew even went through the painful process of losing 90% of an investment years ago just to walk through his lessons on the show. Whether you’re partnering on a deal or passively investing in syndications, if any of these red flags show up, you should run—immediately. From vetting a sponsor to investigating track records, which metrics to trust (and which NOT to), and the questions you MUST ask, this episode alone could stop you from losing tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars. In This Episode We Cover: The seven deadly signs that a multifamily syndication deal is a scam (or at least a dud) Vetting a sponsor/syndicator and why you MUST avoid “FOMO investing” Partnerships, inexperienced sponsors, and who you can REALLY trust The new financial “metric” unsophisticated syndicators hope you DON’T look into  The “capital stack” explained, and how to do your due diligence on a syndication’s debt (before you invest) And So Much More!

Well, you could retire early, thanks to it. If you bought a house from 2009 up until 2021, there’s a good chance you could be sitting on tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or millions of dollars in equity. But equity just sitting in a property isn’t doing much for you unless you can use it to retire early! Want to know how? Stick around; we’ll show you! We’re back on another Seeing Greene where average investor Rob Abasolo joins buff, strong, beautiful, and bald David Greene to answer your real estate investing questions. In today’s show, we talk to Anthony, a slow-and-steady investor who’s built up an impressive amount of equity over the past decade. He wants to retire early and use his equity to increase monthly cash flow. But what’s the best way to do it? Next, we share some public loathing of HOAs (homeowners associations) and how they can be the bane of your investing existence, plus when it’s time to sell a property in an HOA. Finally, an investor who is STRUGGLING to pay off her HELOC asks what the next best move to make is: work hard to pay it off the old-fashioned way or leverage ANOTHER investment to become debt-free faster.  In This Episode We Cover: How to turn your home equity into cash flow and an early retirement  Buying rental properties in cash and when it makes sense to forgo a mortgage Syndications vs. active investing and when you should stay away from “passive” income HOA headaches and why a homeowner association could ruin your cash flow Cash-hemorrhaging HELOCs and the fastest way to pay off bad debt And So Much More!

After realizing that her corporate job in Jamaica wouldn’t lead her to where she wanted to be, Keleisha made the adventurous decision to pack up everything she had and move to the US. Overnight, she went from a high-respected marketing role to bussing tables in an entirely different country, but she had bigger plans. Keleisha’s goal was to support her family financially in any way she could and eventually bring them to the States. After numerous promotions, Keleisha built up a small sum of savings that she would use to buy her first rental property. Or, that was the plan until she realized that without being a US citizen, purchasing a home and getting a mortgage would be much more complicated than she thought. In today’s show, Keleisha shares her smart strategy to get around the banks and buy properties, EVEN as a new immigrant. Plus, she’ll show how she’s buying rentals today WITHOUT using her own money and why she’ll NEVER try to flip houses again. In This Episode We Cover: How to get around mortgage qualifications and buy your first property WITHOUT the banks Quitting corporate and when it’s time to take a risk and leave a soul-sucking job behind An immigrant’s guide to real estate investing without a Green Card or citizenship Why EVERY BRRRR (buy, rehab, rent, refinance, repeat) property MUST work as a house flip How to find the perfect out-of-state investing market even if you have ZERO investing experience And So Much More!

These investment property loans are unknown to most real estate investors simply because they don’t know where to look or who to ask about them. Which loans are we talking about? Stick around because today, we’re uncovering all the ways that YOU can finance and fund your real estate deals in 2023 and 2024, even when getting a loan is harder than ever before. If you’ve been struggling to put properties under contract because your financing keeps falling through, this is the episode for you. After running into numerous closing table conundrums and non-stop financing fatigue, many real estate investors are giving up on buying new properties due to banks’ lack of liquidity and eye-watering loan requirements. But that isn’t stopping David, Rob, or today’s guest, Zach Lemaster, from closing deals. In this episode, we’ll go through the loan options that WORK in 2023 and 2024, the creative financing you can use to fund your next deal, and the often unknown loans that STILL offer only three percent mortgage rates or just five percent down on rental properties (seriously). If you haven’t tried these loans yet, you could be missing out on some of the best deals of the decade. In This Episode We Cover: The underrated, often overlooked rental property loans with low interest rates and low down payments Why getting a thirty-year fixed-rate loan may NOT make sense in 2023 and 2024 Whether to secure the debt or the deal first on your next real estate investment Loan “covenants” you MUST look out for before getting any new mortgage Mortgage rate predictions and where interest rates could be over the next five years How to build a relationship with banks/lenders so you ALWAYS get funding  And So Much More!

We’re about to give you all the last-chance tax tips and loopholes you can use NOW to pay WAY less in taxes in 2024. All of these are perfectly legal, but many will require some form of real estate investing. Don’t own any rental property yet? Not a problem! You can STILL start planning to pay lower taxes BEFORE you buy! We brought back our two favorite tax experts, Amanda Han and Matt MacFarland, on to the show to share all the last-minute tax tips YOU can use to pay Uncle Sam less and keep more in your pocket. Plus, Amanda and Matt share a tax “loophole” that anyone who makes under $100K per year OR owns a short-term rental property can use to save thousands, if not tens of thousands, in taxes. We’ll also get into common ways anyone can reduce their taxes through retirement account contributions, charitable donations, and more. Plus, the common misconception costing you thousands of dollars in write-offs that you never knew you could take!  In This Episode We Cover The one rental property “loophole” that allows you to take a MASSIVE deduction A huge real estate write-off any investor who makes under $100K is able to take  Retirement investing and how boosting your nest egg can dramatically lower your taxes Common real estate write-offs that you’ve probably missed  How to use your home equity for tax-free income AND a big tax write-off  What to do RIGHT NOW to avoid paying taxes in 2024 (and beyond!)

Five, ten, twenty, one hundred? And once you know how many you need, how long will it take you to get there? KC Massie reached financial independence in his thirties after eleven years of slowly, quietly, and strategically building a repeatable rental property portfolio that rakes in over $100,000 per MONTH in rent. Yes, you read that right—six figures a month!  KC didn’t do anything spectacular to achieve this feat. He didn’t raise any money from friends or family, buy a thousand units in a year, or use risky debt. Instead, KC did things the old-fashioned way—slowly building a portfolio of rental properties, consistently buying every year, and making the most money he could at his job to fuel his purchases. Fast forward eleven years, he has complete financial freedom and has enough money to do whatever he wants, whenever he wants. In today’s show, you’ll hear about KC’s repeatable path to real estate wealth, the surprisingly ordinary methods he used to build a BIG portfolio of rental properties, and why he encourages EVERY real estate investor to start “building quietly.”  In This Episode We Cover How KC built a $50K/month rental property income stream in just eleven years The “limiting beliefs” you’re telling yourself that stop you from achieving financial freedom Working with your spouse and why you WANT them included in your rental business  Why getting better at your job is the fastest road to early retirement  How KC doubled his portfolio overnight with one very smart move  Why you MUST start “building quietly” if you ever want to become wealthy  And So Much More!

With home prices and mortgage rates so high, even a decent-paying job won’t land you a rental property or even a primary residence. So, what do you do? Should you call it quits and let others build wealth while you struggle to make ends meet? Not quite. There’s one thing you should start doing today that’ll make your real estate investing much easier. Welcome one and all to another Seeing Greene, where David answers your investing questions in today’s tough housing market. First, Rob joins us to advise an investor struggling to buy her business’s building from her father. He wants to sell after having a rough time with this commercial property, but Shelly, our investor, wants to convince him to keep the building OR give her a chance of ownership. What should she do?  Next, David answers the trifecta of 2023 investing questions: what should you do when your pre-approval is too low? How do you pull out home equity when you’re broke? And what to do when you don’t have enough income to qualify for a mortgage? A straightforward solution solves ALL THREE of these investors’ questions, and it’ll help you, too, if you’re struggling in this market! In This Episode We Cover: What to do if you WANT to invest in real estate but don’t have enough money  Why DTI (debt-to-income) is SO important to investing and how to lower yours NOW Real estate vs. stocks and why property almost ALWAYS beats simple stock investments When to invest in a “mediocre” deal that has no-to-low cash flow How to fire your property manager EVEN if you’ve signed a long-term contract The secret to scaling your real estate portfolio that the gurus won’t tell you And So Much More!

She’s spent her entire career betting on New York real estate, and her risk has come with tens of millions of dollars in rewards. And while Barbara is known for her “go with your gut” type of investing, her son, Tom Higgins, went a completely different direction—and it paid off. Tom has flown under the radar for most of his real estate career, never relying on his Corcoran lineage thanks to his different last name. He worked at a real estate brokerage in college, attended real estate finance classes at night, and eventually found himself in the industry as a real estate development professional, helping develop and renovate over 2,000 multifamily rental units! Tom is a hard-numbers guy. He knows the cash-on-cash return, loan-to-value, and acquisition cost of every deal he’s done. Barbara, on the other hand, self-admittedly, can barely remember which metrics are which. Today, Barbara and Tom debate whether you should go with your head or heart when investing in real estate and why using a little bit of both could make you richer than all the other investors. In This Episode We Cover: Barbara and Tom’s sneaky way of finding up-and-coming real estate investing areas Why Barbara says to never touch a DIME of your cash flow until… How Tom made Barbara even more money by making her go against her investing nature  One super simple way to immediately find out if a contractor will be worth the money  Risky leverage and the one type of loan Tom says to STAY AWAY from Why Barbara looks for “old ladies” every time she’s in a new market  How Tom uses BiggerPockets to meet investors, contractors, and partners (and why you should too!)  And So Much More!

Today, Barbara and Tom debate whether you should go with your head or heart when investing in real estate and why using a little bit of both could make you richer than all the other investors. In This Episode We Cover: Barbara and Tom’s sneaky way of finding up-and-coming real estate investing areas Why Barbara says to never touch a DIME of your cash flow until… How Tom made Barbara even more money by making her go against her investing nature  One super simple way to immediately find out if a contractor will be worth the money  Risky leverage and the one type of loan Tom says to STAY AWAY from Why Barbara looks for “old ladies” every time she’s in a new market  How Tom uses BiggerPockets to meet investors, contractors, and partners (and why you should too!)  And So Much More!

How to Build Wealth in Both</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/841-biggernews-soft-landing-or-hard-recession-how-to-build-wealth-in-both--75654781</link><description><![CDATA[Will 2024 bring about a soft landing or a hard recession? Tough economic times could be upon us as more and more economists disagree with the “soft landing” narrative of early and mid-2023. Even though the economy hasn’t broken down yet, top-tier investors like Fundrise’s Ben Miller believe that a recessionary “lag” is taking place that could give us some severe financial whiplash—and only the best of the best will survive what is to come. So, what does it take to survive a recession, and how do you know whether or not you’ve put yourself at risk of losing everything? Ben, David, and Rob all give their takes on what could happen in 2024, how they’re protecting their wealth, and why they’re taking fewer risks to ensure they make it out alive. This may be a HUGE wake-up call if you’re still actively buying real estate deals and leveraging your portfolio as much as possible. Ben will also talk about his lessons from the last two crashes, how the companies he worked with got crushed, and how he changed his investing perspective to build wealth far faster than almost anyone around him. Wealth is built during the downtimes, but if you don’t follow the advice of those who have been through past crashes, you could lose everything you’ve built! In This Episode We Cover: When the 2024 recession could hit and why it may be worse than most Americans believe The recession “lag” that is catching up to us and why it might hit you by surprise  A soft landing vs. hard recession and how bad the economy could get Impacts on real estate and whether or not you should be buying or holding right now Playing financial “defense” and how to ensure you don’t get wiped out during downtimes High mortgage rates and how they could lead to unemployment, a housing market standstill, and a tough economy And So Much More!

If you want boring, unsexy markets that give you mailbox money every month, have growing populations, cheap homes, and strong economies, bring your notepad because you probably haven’t thought of any of these markets before. We sent our On the Market researchers on a quest to find the country’s most boring, underrated, yet promising rental property markets—and we’re sharing the list with you today. From college football towns to underrated beach cities and strong manufacturing centers, almost all these cities have cash-flowing real estate where you can find steals and deals easier than already-tapped markets like Miami, D.C., or Denver. Some of these markets are on the smaller side. Still, with housing affordability tanking, these cheaper states could see a massive influx in population as coastal workers seek financially stable inland cities. So, if you’ve been saving up to buy your next deal but can’t find anything worth investing in around your area, check out ANY of these eight markets because if you don’t buy in them, we will (and Henry already has)! In This Episode We Cover: Eight boring, stable, cash-flowing real estate markets you can invest in NOW The East Coast beach city with MASSIVE population growth and cheap home prices The college football towns where you can make a killing on student housing Staying away from single-industry markets and what happens when employment starts to fall The state pushing for zero percent state tax that could see a significant population boost The growing city where Henry is gobbling up rental properties as fast as he can And So Much More!

How do you know how much to spend on a renovation before buying a house? And is a negative cash flow rental EVER worth investing in? On this Seeing Greene, we’re answering the tough questions you’ll be forced to ask in a hard housing market so you can build wealth while the masses run for the hills. Thankfully, David has his co-pilot on this episode! David and Rob are back to answer YOUR real estate questions, EVEN if you’re too scared to hear the answers. On today’s show, a live caller asks, “How do I get a renovation estimate BEFORE bidding on a BRRRR?” If you’ve stressed over which comes first, the bid or the buy, stick around. We’ll also touch on negative cash flow and when it makes sense to buy a rental that’s losing money every month (there’s a science to this). Then, for all you doomsayers, David and Rob give their take on what happens when the population declines, and no one is left to rent houses. Finally, we answer the age-old question, “should I rent or buy in today’s market?” Want to ask David a question? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene. Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can jump on a live Q&amp;A and get your question answered on the spot! In This Episode We Cover: How to estimate rehab costs BEFORE you bid on a BRRRR When it’s worth it to buy a “cash flow negative” rental property  The secret to getting out of ANY contract if you need to exit a deal The long-term effects of declining populations and whether real estate investing could meet its end Renting vs. buying and when it makes sense to invest while you're still a renter And So Much More!

By taking advantage of property auctions and investing in areas that most real estate investors wouldn’t even consider, Darius has built a real estate portfolio that will soon bring in six figures in rent every year, most of which he’ll get to keep. How he did it was a lot simpler than you’d expect. Before real estate, Darius had $100,000 in student debt, was making a close-to-unlivable wage, and knew he needed a way out. He bought his first home six years after the Great Financial Crisis in an economically devastated city. Darius couldn’t get a mortgage and needed to save up to get out of the two-bedroom house he was sharing with six other people. Once he closed on his first house, he knew he had to repeat the system. But this wasn’t easy. Darius has seen everything from sewer problems to stripped copper piping and wiring, no electric hookups, and renovation headaches, but he never stopped. Now, he makes as much passive income per year as many people’s full-time jobs and can show you how to do the same so you can make more money than you ever dreamed possible. In This Episode We Cover: How to buy properties at auctions for THOUSANDS of dollars each (seriously) The one thing you MUST do before you buy any property (getting this wrong could cost you thousands) DIY rehabs and how to outsource your home renovations so you can focus on investing How to use BRRRR (buy, rehab, rent, refinance, repeat) to build your real estate portfolio faster Why Darius’ overlooked area could be a cash flow goldmine for investors Turning your real estate skills into a business to make even more money And So Much More!

One slip and fall from a tenant, one angry ex-spouse, one jealous onlooker, and you could have your real estate relinquished and your bank accounts drained. And as the economy continues to get even more rocky, lawsuits that threaten your hard-earned nest egg are becoming more and more common. So, how do you build a legal fortress around your fortune? Brian T. Bradley, Esq., our go-to asset protection expert, is back on the show with news that could affect all real estate investors. A recent case surrounding LLCs (limited liability companies) has completely changed the landscape for investors, businesses, and anyone who operates within an LLC. Now, the LLC you so carefully set up could mean nothing if you eventually get sued. But there is something you can do about it.

One slip and fall from a tenant, one angry ex-spouse, one jealous onlooker, and you could have your real estate relinquished and your bank accounts drained. And as the economy continues to get even more rocky, lawsuits that threaten your hard-earned nest egg are becoming more and more common. So, how do you build a legal fortress around your fortune? Brian T. Bradley, Esq., our go-to asset protection expert, is back on the show with news that could affect all real estate investors. A recent case surrounding LLCs (limited liability companies) has completely changed the landscape for investors, businesses, and anyone who operates within an LLC. Now, the LLC you so carefully set up could mean nothing if you eventually get sued. But there is something you can do about it. In this episode, Brian goes over the changes in this new LLC law, how you can start protecting your assets (even if you only have a couple of properties), how to NOT commit “accidental fraud,” and the rise of “Robin Hood” lawsuits you MUST protect yourself against. In This Episode We Cover: The asset protection “layers” anyone can use to protect themselves from lawsuits  A new court case on LLCs that could change the way business is done  “Piercing the veil” and mistakes you’re probably making that could cost you everything The “accidental fraud” actions MANY investors make when protecting their assets Why you NEVER want to put your rental properties into an S-Corp The rise in “Robin Hood” lawsuits that target wealthy, successful investors And So Much More!

But this time, you’ll hear a bit more about who should be investing, who shouldn’t, and why partnering up on a property is a huge “no-no” in Kevin’s book. Plus, if you’re starved for cash flow in this impossible investing environment, Kevin has some good news for you. But that’s not all we get into. David and Kevin talk about why cash flow isn’t as important as you think, why dating the mortgage rate could be risky, the social media investing scam you could be falling into, and why investing with no money down is a fool’s game. One investor even submits a potential deal that makes Kevin want to vomit (his words), so if this sounds like something you’re about to buy, run away! Want to ask David a question? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene. Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can jump on a live Q&amp;A and get your question answered on the spot! In This Episode We Cover: Why you should stop caring so much about cash flow and focus on THIS instead What to do with “trapped capital” in your properties and how to make more money to invest BRRRRing vs. flipping in 2023 (and which one Kevin HATES) The investing “advantage” you might not even know you have Partnership problems and the one real estate investment Kevin won’t touch  Using private money to fund your down payment (and Kevin’s STRONG opinion on this) And So Much More!

She was hundreds of thousands in debt from student loans, trying to raise a family with almost zero free time, working eighty-hour weeks, and failing to find financial footing. Now, just five years later, she’s financially free, owns over five hundred rentals, and works not because she has to but because she wants to. She’s scaled faster than almost anyone else we’ve interviewed, so tune in to hear her secrets! Let’s address the elephant in the room. Lindsey Duguet is actually Dr. Lindsey Duguet, a physician who was the first in her family to attend college. After being told “you can’t do that” more times than she could count, Lindsey made it her mission to prove everyone wrong on her road to success. She got into medical school, nailed residency, became a doctor, and then built a massive passive income rental portfolio on the side to free up family time. In this episode, Lindsey talks about what made her realize she couldn’t rely on a W2, why buying squatter-filled rentals for just $5,000 isn’t the best move to make, a MASSIVE BRRRR win that made her $300K (tax-free), and how to get “unstuck” when you feel like your real estate investing has hit a wall. In This Episode We Cover: How to build a massive real estate portfolio in five years (or less) Direct mail and other ways that Lindsey found killer off-market deals Why you should NEVER buy a house sight unseen (unless you do this) Real estate partnerships and how to use them to build an even bigger portfolio Creating passive income and why you CAN'T rely on your W2 forever Working full-time while running a real estate portfolio and how to start outsourcing tasks And So Much More!

With the threat of an economic recession, travel spending was supposed to crater, and with it, a slew of Airbnb failures. But that never happened. While demand did drop, supply increased, and daily rate growth eventually fell flat, there was no “Airbnbust” that so many doomsayers predicted. But, with another recession risk looking more real, are hosts still safe? We brought AirDNA’s Jamie Lane back to give his take on whether or not a short-term rental crash could happen this year or next. But that’s not all; Jamie also goes over what top hosts are doing NOW to increase their revenue and keep their businesses afloat even as rates come off their post-pandemic highs. Plus, what’s happening globally as a strong US dollar scares away would-be international travelers. If you run an Airbnb, this is data you must pay attention to. We’ll review which short-term rental markets are in danger, the amenities that will explode your occupancy, what to do when regulations get introduced in your city, and how to prepare if a recession cuts into Americans’ travel spending. In This Episode We Cover: The “Airbnbust” that never happened and why the short-term rental market held up Supply, demand, and why average daily rates are starting to fall across the industry Airbnb bans and short-term rental regulations that could immediately impact your business Global Airbnbs and why international travelers are steering clear of vacationing in the US Fires, floods, hurricanes, and other natural disasters threatening lives and Airbnb businesses Jamie’s advice on getting your first Airbnb and how to find a market that will last And So Much More!

This could be a move you regret for years, ESPECIALLY if you’re doing this in 2023. As home prices have risen and real estate investors search for more money to invest, the HELOC (home equity line of credit) has become an obvious choice for many. But drawing from these lines of credit could come with a lot more risk than you might think and may tank your cash flow. David Greene is back on another Seeing Greene, live from Florida! But that’s not all; Rob (Robuilt) Abasolo is coming on to tag-team your real estate investing questions. They'll first talk to Tim, who wants to invest in real estate in high-priced Southern California. He has a townhome with some sizable equity but doesn’t know how to fund his first investment or make the most cash flow. David and Rob also hit on what to do with inherited or paid-off properties and how to scale when you lack the capital.

What started as a niche type of investing quickly took over the world, and Luke was able to use these mega high-cash flow properties to buy more rentals, build more wealth, and have enough real estate to do whatever he wanted, whenever he wanted. If you want that same type of financial freedom, you’ll want to copy Luke’s blueprint. Luke and his wife, Avery, bought their first short-term rental before the term “Airbnb” even existed. They got in the game so early that they currently have the longest-running Airbnb in the Smoky Mountains. One vacation rental turned into another and another until they eventually reached a breaking point, forcing them to pivot and turn their short-term profits into long-term rentals, a move that Luke would wholeheartedly do again. Now, with a massive rental property portfolio, Luke credits his passive income portfolio to short-term rentals. The high cash flow has allowed him to buy more passive properties that can be outsourced and don’t require constant attention. But can YOU still repeat Luke’s short-term rental strategy with the so-called “#Airbnbust” upon us? Surprisingly, yes. He'll show you how.

With the right out-of-state rental properties, you can have consistent cash flow coming in every month, along with tens of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands, in equity from properties you bought this year! Today, we’re talking to two investors building their retirement nest eggs with long-distance real estate investing. Even better, the deals they’ll share were bought THIS year in today’s impossible housing market. First, we’ll talk to Keith, who lives in pricey California. He knew he couldn’t invest nearby but wanted to start building his passive income empire. With the help of Indianapolis agent Peter Stewart, Keith was able to lock down a medium-term rental that now cash flows $700 per month! Keith and Peter get into all the details, from how much the house cost to how they got it close to $30,000 under asking price, and the almost-perfect BRRRR (buy, rehab, rent, refinance, repeat) they did. Next, we’ll talk to Dave, who sold off all his rental properties in the last crash. Now, with retirement inching closer, he wants to build a legacy for his two boys. Dave worked with Oklahoma’s own Dahlia Khalaf on finding a long-term rental in a market with PLENTY of demand—so much demand that Dave had seventy-five interested applicants the weekend he posted this home for rent! If you want to find deals like Keith and Dave did in TODAY’s housing market, tune in! In This Episode We Cover: Retiring with rental properties and how to start building your nest egg today Out-of-state real estate investing and landlording at a distance when your home market is too pricey Building your “buy box” so you know exactly what rental properties to look for How to get WAY more cash flow out of the same rental with the “medium-term rental” model Using the BRRRR (buy, rehab, rent, refinance, repeat) method to pay close to nothing for rental properties  Why overbidding isn’t always a bad thing (and how it can make you money!)

Instead of buying the nicest-looking rental property in the best area through a brutal bidding war, David Lecko went the opposite route, purchasing the properties nobody else wanted, finding deals simply by driving for dollars or paying someone else to do so. He went from a burnt-out nine-to-five worker to financial freedom in just two years by following this strategy, and you can do it, too! David was working all day and all night, making a meager salary with almost zero time freedom. His boss, who worked far less than he did, outsourced his business and had rental properties on the side. David knew that to be in the same position, he’d have to mimic his boss’ path to wealth. So, after work, David would drive around his local area, looking for the tallest grass, the biggest roof repairs, and the worst paint jobs. He finally found his first deal, which cost less than a used car, but ended up springboarding David to make millions. In today’s episode, David will walk through EXACTLY how to find off-market real estate deals the RIGHT way, how to get around the lazy lists that most off-market investors use, and how to turn a few properties into millions of dollars of wealth and close to six figures a year in passive income.

Instead of buying the nicest-looking rental property in the best area through a brutal bidding war, David Lecko went the opposite route, purchasing the properties nobody else wanted, finding deals simply by driving for dollars or paying someone else to do so. He went from a burnt-out nine-to-five worker to financial freedom in just two years by following this strategy, and you can do it, too! David was working all day and all night, making a meager salary with almost zero time freedom. His boss, who worked far less than he did, outsourced his business and had rental properties on the side. David knew that to be in the same position, he’d have to mimic his boss’ path to wealth. So, after work, David would drive around his local area, looking for the tallest grass, the biggest roof repairs, and the worst paint jobs. He finally found his first deal, which cost less than a used car, but ended up springboarding David to make millions. In today’s episode, David will walk through EXACTLY how to find off-market real estate deals the RIGHT way, how to get around the lazy lists that most off-market investors use, and how to turn a few properties into millions of dollars of wealth and close to six figures a year in passive income. And in today’s tough housing market, finding deals like these is even MORE crucial. So, what are you waiting for? Financial freedom is only a couple of years away! In This Episode We Cover: How to reach financial freedom in just a couple of years by buying off-market real estate  Driving for dollars and using this strategy to find massively underpriced deals Outsourcing your deal finding so you can drive less and make more money Building your off-market deal list and how many houses it’ll take to get your first payday  To BRRRR or not to BRRRR and why NO cash flow isn’t always a bad thing  And So Much More!

At least that’s Rob Abasolo’s advice as he joins David this Sunday for a Seeing Greene episode, where they take questions directly from BiggerPockets listeners, commenters, and reviewers! And even if you don’t have your first rental in the bag, this episode will be worth tuning into. David and Rob discuss whether buying your first property with a fixed vs. adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM) makes more sense with today’s high interest rates. Then, we hear from an investor looking to sell their rentals and move that money into a bigger city with more appreciation potential. The problem? Their rentals are making some serious cash flow. Speaking of cash flow, we hear from an investor who’s got a townhouse that COULD become a rental but would have some meager returns. Is it worth keeping? Tune in to hear answers to all those questions and more! Want to ask David a question? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene. Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can hop on a live Q&amp;A and get your question answered on the spot! In This Episode We Cover: How to turn your low-cash flow rental into a passive income machine  Partnering with family members on a rental and how to split the profits  Fixed-rate mortgages vs. adjustable-rate mortgages (ARMs) and whether the low rate is worth the risk  When to trade your stable, cash-flowing rentals for long-term appreciation in a better market  Why lenders DON’T want you to downgrade to a cheaper primary residence (and how to get around it) And So Much More!

What about a way to do it in a year or less? That’s precisely what Keith Everett did, trading his sixteen-dollar-an-hour factory job for the potential to make six figures by himself, wholesaling real estate. Keith dropped out of college to work, realizing he made as much at his job as his university professors. After working twelve to sixteen-hour shifts and receiving a ten-cent raise (seriously), Keith knew he needed a way out. Keith purchased a twenty-dollar book on real estate investing and got his first deal soon after. He was flying high, thinking the rest would be easy until the money stopped flowing in, his car got repossessed, his bank account ran low, and his wife was forced to move away for a job that would support the family. This wasn’t Keith’s plan, but he quickly turned things around. Now, Keith runs a real estate business that brings in not just six figures a year but six figures a MONTH. He’s done over 400 deals in the past seven years and went from factory worker to scrappy hustler to CEO. Keith walks through every book he read, course he attended, and skill he learned that took his wealth to the next level. If you follow his practical tips, you could end up right where he is. In This Episode We Cover: How to make six figures a year (or month) by wholesaling real estate Finding your “financial thermostat” and setting it so you save money EVERY month How to fix your credit and the one thing you can do now to boost your score How to go from hustler to CEO and build a business instead of another job  The biggest mistake Keith made when he started making serious money The three things Keith focuses on when doing ANY deal  And So Much More!

But, after this episode, we bet your home offer will get accepted, even during a wild seller’s market, even if you’re not offering the highest bid, and EVEN if this is your first time buying a home. While you may THINK that sellers always choose the “highest and best” offer that comes their way, we have a few experts to prove that that’s rarely the case and how you can win even in an impossible housing market. First-time home buyers and veteran investors alike are feeling the sting from this never-ending sellers market. There are still more buyers than sellers, and bidding wars have come back into fashion. Thankfully, a few quick tips from today’s expert agent, Lindsey Iskierka, and David Greene’s own mortgage broker, Christian Bachelder, can help you win the home you love or your next cash-flowing, equity-boosting investment property. We’ll walk through the five steps ANYONE (yes, even you) can take to put yourself in the BEST position to make a bid on a property, how your lender can ensure you DON’T get squeezed into paying more, and the biggest mistake new home buyers make that are costing them their dream home. Stick around because once you put these tips into practice, you could have too many accepted offers on your hands. In This Episode We Cover: How to get your home offer accepted in 2023, EVEN if you’re not the highest bidder Pre-qualification vs. pre-approval and why you CAN’T mistake the two Why you MUST call your lender before putting in ANY property offer (save THOUSANDS) The “rate stack” that could lead to a lower mortgage rate or a credit to closing costs The powerful negotiation tool that could land you tens of thousands at closing One common “hiccup” you MUST avoid when closing on your next property And So Much More!

Thankfully, a few quick tips from today’s expert agent, Lindsey Iskierka, and David Greene’s own mortgage broker, Christian Bachelder, can help you win the home you love or your next cash-flowing, equity-boosting investment property. We’ll walk through the five steps ANYONE (yes, even you) can take to put yourself in the BEST position to make a bid on a property, how your lender can ensure you DON’T get squeezed into paying more, and the biggest mistake new home buyers make that are costing them their dream home. Stick around because once you put these tips into practice, you could have too many accepted offers on your hands. In This Episode We Cover: How to get your home offer accepted in 2023, EVEN if you’re not the highest bidder Pre-qualification vs. pre-approval and why you CAN’T mistake the two Why you MUST call your lender before putting in ANY property offer (save THOUSANDS) The “rate stack” that could lead to a lower mortgage rate or a credit to closing costs The powerful negotiation tool that could land you tens of thousands at closing One common “hiccup” you MUST avoid when closing on your next property And So Much More!

What if you could use it to buy even more rentals, build your real estate portfolio, and have a steady stream of passive income flowing into your bank account? On today’s Seeing Greene, one viewer is asking exactly how to do that, and while his strategy could work, it may not be the best move with mortgage rates so high and deal flow so low. So, what would David do instead? It’s Sunday, so we’re taking listener questions directly from rookies, veteran investors, and those wanting to retire early. In this episode, David pokes holes in the “cash-out refinance to buy a new property” strategy. We also hear from two late starters who want to get a jump on their retirement, a burnt-out property manager looking for the best way to scale, an equity-heavy investor who’s debating buying a rental or lending out his money, and a reviewer who was scammed by the real estate “gurus.” Want to ask David a question? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene. Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can hop on a live Q&amp;A and get your question answered on the spot! In This Episode We Cover: How to use your home equity to buy more rental properties and build a real estate portfolio How to retire early, build a nest egg, and create cash flow as a late starter Scaling your real estate business and whether you have what it takes to do so The real estate “gurus” who will take your money and run (and telltale signs of a scam) Why quitting your job for real estate isn’t a smart move to make (especially in 2023) Private money lending vs. property investing and which will make you more money And So Much More!

After watching his family go bankrupt, lose their multi-generational farm, and have to give up their dreams, Jason knew that this was NOT what he wanted his future to look like. Instead, Jason would build a multi-million dollar real estate portfolio. One without high risk, high leverage, or a bank breathing down his neck when things went sideways. A portfolio that would make him MILLIONS in tax-free income, using techniques every average American can repeat. Jason quickly learned the right way to use debt. After securing a loan at the young age of seven, Jason started raising hogs. When he became the Grand Champion for hog raising at his local fair, he was given a check for a couple thousand dollars—MORE than enough for any seven-year-old. This lesson later helped Jason repeat the same strategy, but with real estate, always adding value and ALWAYS paying his debts. Jason’s “opportunistic” way of investing allows him to buy anything and everything that makes money. House hacking, fix and flips, mobile homes, and oil and gas leases are just SOME of the asset classes that Jason has invested in. One of these allowed him to make $1.9 million using a strategy that ANYONE listening to this episode can take advantage of. Want to hear how? Stick around! In This Episode We Cover: The danger of “overleveraging” and how it can ruin your chance at financial freedom House hacking and how to make tax-free millions simply by living in your home Syndication hype and why you should NEVER “fake it till you make it” in real estate Jason’s “No B.S.” advice to find real estate deals WHEREVER you are Partnerships and when it’s a wiser move to fly solo in your investing career  And So Much More!

A cost segregation study. Never heard of it? Most real estate investors haven’t, but we’re about to unlock a world of tax-free income earning using this specific tool. If you’ve wondered how the wealthy pay such few taxes while owning million-dollar-producing real estate, this is how. In today’s episode, you’ll learn how to use cost segregation, too, so you can keep more money in your pocket. Taxes aren’t everyone’s favorite subject, but paying fewer taxes? You can probably get behind that. We’ve brought on CPA and CFP Mitchell Baldridge to explain how he helps real estate investors, large and small, delete their taxable income and build their real estate portfolios faster. Our own Rob Abasolo uses Mitchell’s team to cut his taxes down by more than six figures! In this episode, we’ll explain what cost segregation is, why so many top real estate investors use it to lower their taxes, when you can (and can’t) use it on your properties, the short-term rental tax “loophole” to take advantage of, AND what happens when you do it wrong. In This Episode We Cover: How to wipe out your income taxes using cost segregation studies Bonus depreciation and writing off your property faster than before Using real estate losses to lower your W2 or business income The short-term rental “loophole” ANYONE can use to reduce their taxable income Carrying over losses and why top real estate investors will NEVER stop buying property Caveats and pitfalls of cost segregation and when it can come back to bite you And So Much More!

For the majority of homeowners, equity is just something to sit on, not something worth using. But what if you could convert your home equity into rental properties, cash flow, or even more appreciation? Where would you be in a decade if you used your equity to make even more equity in other properties? You could retire early, make more than you’ve ever imagined, and KNOW that your wealth is working FOR you. It’s Sunday, and David remembered to turn his green light on…you know what that means. We’re back with another episode of Seeing Greene, where real estate investors, rookies, and business owners shoot some of their most pressing questions at David. In this show, a young business owner wants to know how to sell (without sounding salesy). Then David describes how to use your home equity to buy even more properties, the best way to pull "wealth" from your rentals, how to retire in ten years, and why no one talks about the “BEAF” strategy of real estate investing.  Want to ask David a question?

By the time Ryan was thirty, he already had twenty-one rental units, paid off over six figures in student debt, and used his pilot job to scope out new property markets. Everything was going to plan until a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity presented itself. Ryan left everything and made the jump. But how did Ryan end up in his multi-millionaire position? How did he go from house hacking “crash pads” for pilots to helping manage one of the largest real estate portfolios in the country? A better question—how did a commercial pilot become Grant Cardone’s right-hand man? Ryan’s story is unbelievable, but it’s true. In today’s episode, Ryan will share why he gave up his high-paid job to bust his butt working for Cardone Capital, why Grant Cardone told him to sell his ENTIRE real estate portfolio, and the two-minute deal analysis Ryan does that instantly tells him whether a property is worth pursuing. Ryan proves ANYONE can go from nothing to much more than something—and you can, too! In This Episode We Cover: Becoming a millionaire by your mid-thirties and turning active income into passive income  House hacking, “crash pads,” and how to make money off of your first home Paying off six figures in student debt and why you MUST be frugal at the beginning of your investing career  Millionaire tips from Grant Cardone and what to do when your property ISN’T profiting  The two-minute deal analysis Ryan uses at Cardone Capital EVERY day  And So Much More!

Really bad. “As bad as I’ve ever seen,” says Insurance Office of America’s Robert J. Hamilton. He’s never seen home and multifamily insurance prices as high as today. But, he has good reason to believe that a better insurance market could be upon us soon, especially as prices continue to ramp up and providers get priced out of the market.  If you’re a property owner, there’s a good chance your insurance premium increased significantly in price last year and the year before. After several unprecedented natural disasters, states like Texas, Florida, and California have seen carriers massively raise rates or leave their markets entirely. But why now? And how long will this last? Robert walks us through exactly what’s caused the higher insurance rates, why so many carriers have given up or died out, and “the beginning of a reset” that could be on the horizon. Andrew Cushman, long-time friend of the show and multifamily investor, gives his seven quick tips on finding a better rate and protecting your property if and when disaster strikes. DO NOT analyze another deal before you watch this episode because, by the time you finish, your new insurance rate could ruin the profit potential.  In This Episode We Cover: The wild 2023 insurance crisis explained and why rates have gone up so dramatically The “capacity crunch” forcing insurance carriers to leave risky markets  What’s causing rates to rise and the “reinsurance” problem carriers face  Underwriting your next rental/multifamily and how to properly predict property insurance costs  The safest states/areas to invest in that carriers are flocking to  The “percentage deductible” trap that could bankrupt your deal if you aren’t careful  And So Much More!

To the non-investors, the numbers seem too good to be true. But Mikey has repeated this system, again and again, to make millions of dollars off of “boring” investments that most investors overlook. What “cash machines” is Mikey referring to, and how do you go from making $800/month to millions of dollars like he did? Mikey has no degree, full-time job, or wealthy parents to hand him an inheritance. At sixteen, Mikey made it his mission to find sponsors for his skateboarding career. What started as a hobby grew into a profession, but Mikey knew it wouldn’t last. After searching for some other income to support him when his career finally ended, Mikey conveniently stumbled upon real estate—and the rest is history. Since ending his skateboarding career, Mikey has built a brewery, invested in multiple BIG multifamily deals, and started buying the “cash machine” properties so many investors WISH they could get their hands on. If you want to know the strategy behind these bold moves and how you can go from barely scraping by to financial mastery, like Mikey, this is THE episode to watch. In This Episode We Cover: The “cash machine” real estate investments only few investors will buy What REAL passive income looks like and how to start building your income streams today Starting a brewery from scratch and selling it for an almost unbelievable profit The “blue ocean” real estate deals many are too scared to touch Converting Kmarts into self-storage and how much money Mikey makes off of each How to avoid lifestyle inflation when you start making big bucks (so you can invest the rest!)

But, your market may be a little too pricey or lack the supply for you to invest in these “slam dunk” deals. So, where do you go? We’ve got two elite agents from the South and Midwest that can help YOU get your next killer deal in metro areas that are seeing STRONG demand, renter growth, and rising rents. To tell us about Chicago, the “we don’t actually love deep dish” city, is Dan Nelson. Dan was recently able to access a “private listing” that was severely underpriced. He brought this deal to a rookie client of his, who ended up making a MASSIVE amount of equity on closing. We’ll also chat with Jodi Gauthier, a Houston-based agent who secured a very lucrative seller-financed deal for her client, who couldn’t get a mortgage anywhere else. You might think these deals are too good to be true, ESPECIALLY in 2023’s housing market. But, we’re here to prove that as long as you’re in the right market, running the right numbers, with the right agent, you too can lock down these “slam dunk” small multifamily deals. In This Episode We Cover: Two housing markets with “slam dunk” small multifamily opportunities Metrics to watch BEFORE you invest in a market and how to know your home will appreciate What to do when you CAN’T find cash flow in your area (and whether or not cash flow is worth it) Seller financing and how to buy properties when you can’t get approved for a loan Questions to ask your agent to see whether or not they TRULY know what they’re doing And So Much More!

If you’ve got $20K (or less) sitting around, there’s a good chance that you could start TODAY. With home prices still sky-high and most Americans under the impression that buying is out of the picture, David Greene comes in to save the day with the “sneaky rental tactic” that can help you start building a real estate portfolio for less than it costs to buy a car! Welcome back to the long-awaited return of Seeing Greene. We’ve taken some of the BEST questions from BiggerPockets listeners just like you and rapid-fired them at David to get his take. In this show, a military couple is looking to start investing but doesn’t know where to begin. A wholesaler wants to buy rentals with a partner but doesn’t know how they should form an LLC. A high-earner debates whether a “luxury house hack” is worth the extra money. Finally, an active-duty family debates selling their homes, and a deputy sheriff wants to know where best to put her leftover cash from a home sale. Want to ask David a question? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene. Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can hop on a live Q&amp;A and get your question answered on the spot! In This Episode We Cover: How to invest in real estate with $20K using the “sneaky rental tactic” “Luxury house hacking” and why buying better properties may be worth the lower cash flow Rental property LLCs and whether or not to form one for your future partnerships When to sell your properties and whether or not a housing crash could be on the horizon The “base hit” rental properties that will make you RICH when you retire And So Much More!

These properties are often in overlooked markets that aren’t as attractive as San Diego, Miami, Austin, or Seattle, but they make her as much, if not more, money. The houses Soli buys are often $100K or less, meaning almost any investor reading this could come close to buying one. In three years, Soli turned $50K into a $5M real estate portfolio, enough passive income to support her for life, and an online following constantly finding and funding deals for her. She started building her real estate portfolio right after college when lockdowns took away her chance to make any active income. After reading David Greene’s Long-Distance Real Estate Investing and listening to the Real Estate Rookie podcast, Soli scraped together every dollar she had and bought a Midwest rental that needed serious rehab. Now, a few years later, she and her partners own dozens of rentals across multiple markets. As a result, Soli was able to quit her job, focus entirely on real estate, and achieve ultimate time freedom. But will her cash-flow-first model work out in the long run? David goes head to head with Soli in this episode to debate whether or not these “cheap” markets are a mistake to invest in. In This Episode We Cover: Out-of-state investing and where to buy rental properties for just $100K Expensive properties vs. cheap properties and which will really make you richer  Keeping yourself accountable and why you need to tell people your goals to make them happen Raising private money and how Soli got over 800 private investors through Instagram alone  Real estate partnerships and how to grow your portfolio FAR faster by not going solo The battle of the BRRRRs and a David vs. Soli debate over which markets make the most money  And So Much More!

In other news, it’s just another day in the 2023 housing market. Some say the sky is falling, others are optimistic, but what do the equally named yet unequally-haired Daves think will happen? Tune into this BiggerNews to find out! David Greene and Dave Meyer are reviewing some top headlines on today’s real estate market. Whether you love them or not, real estate agents are at the center of this episode as new lawsuits and cybersecurity attacks put their careers at risk. And this is no exaggeration—one of these stories could foreshadow “the beginning of the end” for real estate as we know it, and David has some strong opinions to share. We’ll also touch on how “deflation” could push prices down as the US economy enters shaky territory and what would have to happen for us to realize this notorious economic event. And if you’re ready to buy or sell a home this year, we have good/bad news for you (depending on what you’re doing) as Goldman Sachs releases their newest home price predictions for 2023 and 2024.  In This Episode We Cover: The multibillion-dollar lawsuits that could create HUGE hurdles for first-time home buyers Deflation concerns and whether or not inflation could reverse entirely Home price predictions and why the housing market could fall flat MLS (multiple listing service) cyberattacks that are holding real estate agents hostage Why institutional investors want to END buyer’s agents and take over home buying And So Much More!

Builders aren’t building what buyers and renters want, insurance companies are pulling out of top investing states, and property threats are growing increasingly common. This may sound like doom and gloom to you, but in reality, it’s keeping your competition out of the game, and if you use the advice on today’s show, you could build wealth while most cower in fear. Seeing Greene is back again as David is on to give his time-tested wisdom to every real estate investor on the planet. But he’s got backup. Rob hangs around on this episode, and special guest Dana Bull, the “know when to stop” investor, is here to drop some knowledge bombs. We take viewer questions like whether you should buy one pricey property or a handful of smaller rentals, what to do when a property you’re buying has an illegal ADU (accessory dwelling unit), why insurance companies are leaving states like California, Florida, and Texas, and what’s the BEST property type to buy in today’s market? Want to ask David a question? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene. Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can hop on a live Q&amp;A and get your question answered on the spot!

Builders aren’t building what buyers and renters want, insurance companies are pulling out of top investing states, and property threats are growing increasingly common. This may sound like doom and gloom to you, but in reality, it’s keeping your competition out of the game, and if you use the advice on today’s show, you could build wealth while most cower in fear. Seeing Greene is back again as David is on to give his time-tested wisdom to every real estate investor on the planet. But he’s got backup. Rob hangs around on this episode, and special guest Dana Bull, the “know when to stop” investor, is here to drop some knowledge bombs. We take viewer questions like whether you should buy one pricey property or a handful of smaller rentals, what to do when a property you’re buying has an illegal ADU (accessory dwelling unit), why insurance companies are leaving states like California, Florida, and Texas, and what’s the BEST property type to buy in today’s market? Want to ask David a question? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene. Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can hop on a live Q&amp;A and get your question answered on the spot!

But, he didn’t do this by investing after the last housing crash, inheriting millions from his parents, or buying a hundred-unit apartment building at once. Actually, Jason seemed like the least likely person to end up as a big earner. He was raised in a household where finances were a constant source of contention, and he only went to college to play sports. Jason’s parents gave him one choice: become a doctor, lawyer, or other high-skilled professional, so he wouldn’t have to struggle like they did. After scraping through pre-med classes, living in the library, and dedicating all his time to school, he thought what every real estate investor thinks, “Maybe this isn’t the right path.” After having a sudden mental breakthrough, Jason knew he couldn’t continue. So what did he do instead? Real estate. He was working (for free) four days a week and going to school two just to level up his skills so that he could finally do what he loved when he graduated. His first deal almost blew up, he almost quit, and he got six figures stolen from him, but Jason is now back on top, only three years after graduating, with a portfolio in the eight figures. How’d he do it so fast? Stick around and find out.  In This Episode We Cover Quitting a (potential) career to focus on what will REALLY build your wealth  How non-stop rejection allowed Jason to become one of the most successful brokers/investors in his area  Why working for free has a far higher ROI than most college students think Investing in an expensive market and why “cash flow” doesn’t matter  How to NOT get scammed by a contractor and signs yours is stealing money  Jason’s “formula for underwriting” and what he looks at most when doing deals  And So Much More!

Just ask Mark Simpson from Boostly; he used just one of these tools to bring in over six figures in sales, save dozens of hours a week, and reach thousands of prospects instantly. But, as a small investor, will these tools help you build wealth faster? The answer is a resounding YES!  In this episode, we’re going over three types of real estate investing tools that have helped us scale our portfolios and businesses to new heights. And whether you own a rental portfolio, have a few properties, are still looking to buy your first, or run an entire real estate business, these tools can help ANYONE with ANY skill set, no matter what you do or how long you’ve been doing it.  From automatically personalized video messages for prospects to a tool that will design your house for you and automations that make your team faster, many of these tools are free or cost FAR less than traditional methods. Now you can reach out to sellers, redesign a rental, and have tasks automatically assigned at the SAME time while you focus on building your business. In This Episode We Cover How AI (artificial intelligence) is changing the way real estate investors do deals How Mark from Boostly made six figures by sending this “personalized” video to prospects  The “scraper” tool that can save you dozens of hours by automatically grabbing property information  Remodeling and redesigning a rental in MINUTES (even if you have ZERO experience) What to do when/if AI takes over and how to set yourself apart from the “lazy” investors  And So Much More!

His dream was to make a living as a musician without selling out. Now, most country music fans know Corey's name and his platinum record speaks for itself. But what you don’t know is that Corey fueled his music career thanks to a handful of properties he bought years ago. Corey’s side project real estate portfolio allowed him to launch his music career, make passive income when times got tough, and fall on his feet when the world was shut down. Corey was looking to invest in property at just seventeen years old, but when a bank turned him away, he had to change his entire mindset and learn the personal finance game from a very early age. After his grandfather taught him the do’s and don’ts of buying raw land, Corey slowly built his real estate portfolio. At this time, Corey was below the poverty line, sleeping in his truck and saving whatever money he could to invest. He continued to buy property, EVEN when times were tight, successfully using his passive income to help him leapfrog into later becoming a chart-topping musician who now can follow his one true passion.  In This Episode We Cover: Investing in real estate when you have low (or no) credit  Buying land and the rule of thumb that Corey ALWAYS follows before he invests  Corey’s “side project” passive real estate portfolio that helps pay for his lifestyle  How one rental property saved Corey’s family when the lockdowns began  Why real estate DOESN’T need to be your passion to build passive income  And So Much More!

Up until now, buying a property has seemed like a guessing game. Your real estate agent, inspector, and title company do their best to ensure you’re buying the right home, but a few months, or weeks, into owning it, something breaks. But not something small—something huge. Now you’re on the hook for tens of thousands in repairs, and this is just one of many things that could go wrong. What if there was a way to see EXACTLY what a home has been through since it was built? What if you could know about every past owner, system malfunction, renovation, repair, or addition to the home? And what if you could access it in seconds when analyzing deals? Sheila Fejeran and Teresa Grobecker from Consortia are building the technology that lets you do just that. Consortia is real estate on the blockchain. But before you start thinking crypto, know that this is something MUCH different. Consortia gives interested parties—lenders, agents, buyers, and more—access to information you would have NEVER known about a home. But that’s not all. Consortia makes closing and lending quicker, so you can buy a house FAR faster than ever imagined. In This Episode We Cover: How the “CARFAX for properties” will make buying rentals painless The blockchain explained and how it will evolve the entire real estate industry Uncovering unknown property risks and how investors can use Consortia to buy even better deals Stopping wire fraud in its tracks and how blockchain could solve this HUGE payment problem Why you should NEVER, ever decline title insurance on a property purchase And So Much More!

The properties with motivated sellers, high-profit potential, equity upside, and BIG cash flow—the real estate deals that every investor dreams about getting. Well, what if we told you that top investors have a tried-and-true way to get them before anyone else and that they do this consistently, every day, every year, while ninety percent of investors are forced to buy their scraps? Of course, we’re talking about funnels. Not the cake you buy at the fair or the thing you use to pour oil—we’re talking about real estate marketing funnels, and if you know how to use them, you can make money at ANY TIME with ANY property. James Dainard and Sam Primm have been using marketing funnels for years to get off-market deals sent their way. But they’ve also used them to get agent business, find property buyers, and build investor lists. So how do they do it? Today you’ll get a masterclass on building your own investing funnel, so you can get the best deals sent to you instead of picking up low-profit on-market properties. This is the same system the TOP investors are using, and if you repeat the steps outlined today, you’ll be able to build a bigger portfolio, create more passive income, and reach financial freedom faster.  In This Episode We Cover: How to find more real estate deals, buyers, sellers, and investors in ANY market The #1 thing you MUST do when creating a real estate marketing funnel  Metrics and KPIs (key performance indicators) to track (so you don’t waste $$) TV ads, direct mail, cold calling, and other funnel sources you can use to grab deals What to do when your funnel is costing you money but not providing the leads you need And So Much More!

With just a few multifamily rental properties, you can create passive income streams that’ll allow you to retire from your W2 job, go full-time into real estate investing, or have enough money to do whatever you want, whenever you want. Don’t think it’s still possible? Dave Meyer, multifamily investor and VP of Data and Analytics at BiggerPockets, may change your mind.  Dave started investing in real estate by buying a couple of small multifamily rentals within a block of each other. He lived in one of the units while renting out the others, allowing him to live for free and collect some sizable cash flow. Now, years later, Dave is collecting around $5,000 per MONTH from just these two properties. And if you invest in small multifamily rentals, you could experience the same cash flow!  If you want to invest like the experts and use the tools and calculators from this episode, sign up for BiggerPockets Pro and use code “FAMILYPOD20” for a discount!  In This Episode We Cover: How to achieve financial freedom by investing in SMALL multifamily real estate The four MAJOR benefits small multifamily boasts and why you’ll want to get in NOW The financial freedom formula and calculating out how much you REALLY need Financing your small multifamily rentals using loans and creative financing  How to use the BiggerPockets Rental Property Calculator to calculate cash flow, cash-on-cash return, and long-term profit  The dangers you MUST look out for before investing in ANY multifamily deal  And So Much More!

Think again. We’re going over two of the country’s biggest cash flow housing markets and showing why they may be your next best bet when buying rental property. And while, traditionally, cash flow real estate markets have been associated with constant turnover, low appreciation, and consistent headaches, these two markets defy the odds—if you know where to buy. Peter Stewart, Indianapolis agent and investor, is on today to discuss why his underrated but surprisingly lucrative housing market deserves your dollars. He’s got clients doing BRRRRs, flips, and regular rental properties with crazy cash flow numbers and returns in the triple-digit percentages! Then we talk to Brandon Ribeiro, Philadelphia commercial agent who recently scored his buyer a rock-bottom mortgage rate (3%!) that will double the cash flow on his newest property. Interested in investing in markets like this? Need a local expert to guide you through the buying process? Check out BiggerPockets Agent Finder to connect with an expert agent in your area. It’s completely free, and you’ll get matched with experts who can talk about cash flow, not just granite countertops. In This Episode We Cover: Two cash flow real estate markets with strong signs for buyers  The market metrics you MUST look at before buying in ANY area  The “danger” of investing in cash flow areas and what you MUST avoid when doing so The 130% cash-on-cash return BRRRR that you can buy in THIS market  How to lock down a rock-bottom mortgage rate with seller-financing And So Much More!

Back in 2010, in a post-crash housing market, almost any property in any area could cash flow easily. Back then, the question wasn’t “Where are the deals?” It was “Which deal should I buy?” But things have changed, and now in 2023, homes are hard to purchase, let alone cash flow, and more and more real estate investors are giving up simply because they don’t know the new rules of the game. So, here’s what you NEED to know. Before we unlock every wealth-building secret in the book, let’s welcome back Danny Zapata, Philip Hernandez, and Wendy St. Clair, our recent mentees of the ninety-day mentorship! We brought them back on the show to talk about deals they’ve done, the progress they’ve made, and where they’ve fallen off track. One mentee left their job, another is handling headache evictions, and one had to put a pause on real estate. But now, they’re ALL ready to expand their empires, but they’ll need some advice first. In this episode, David and Rob show you how to get more real estate deals TODAY, why you’re doing meetups all wrong, the reality of cash flow and why “mailbox money” isn’t what it used to be, and what to do when you CAN’T find the momentum to keep growing your wealth. In This Episode We Cover How to find more real estate deals instantly (even in 2023!)  The “reverse escalator” of wealth and why most Americans are getting left behind What to do when you’ve lost momentum along your real estate journey Replacing your job with real estate and the smartest, cheapest way to buy home-run rental properties  Why you MUST sacrifice short-term cash flow for long-term wealth  And So Much More!

We’ve got good news for you! You DON’T have to rush full-steam ahead, buying every property that crosses your path to reach financial freedom. That’s right, instead of buying dozens of units a year, you can buy a dozen units within a couple of decades, taking the slow, steady path to building wealth instead of ferociously racing to rack up as many rentals as possible. While it may sound like every real estate investor is constantly on a buying spree, this is far from the truth. Investors like Andy Gil have been able to build seven-figure real estate portfolios without sacrificing time with family or infringing on their morals to make more money. Far from it, actually; Andy is outwardly trying to make it easier for often neglected renters to find a safe place to stay. Through the past two decades, Andy has been building his rental property portfolio up to the twelve units it is today. He never thought he would be the person to buy a house, let alone own a rental portfolio. Still, thanks to his differences that make him a superhero in aspects most investors would dread, he’s built serious wealth without sacrificing what’s important. In this episode, you’ll hear precisely how Andy did it, his “T-Rex” policy that entices renters, outsourcing your weaknesses, and using your differences to build wealth. In This Episode We Cover: Andy’s “T-Rex” rental policy that leads to low vacancy and a steady stream of passive income Outsourcing your weaknesses and why you MUST know what you don’t do well Buying a “fractured condo association” and why Andy is all-in on this uncommon asset class Taking obstacles and turning them into opportunities along your investing journey How multifamily real estate investors can prepare for an upcoming wave of vacancies  Why unit count DOESN’T matter, but the wealth in those units does!

To her, building businesses isn’t the “set it and forget it” dream that most investors think it will be, but it sure beats having a job. Codie has built her wealth by buying “boring” businesses that most people overlook. Car washes, laundromats, and self-storage are some of her portfolio favorites, and they could make you a killing too. So, what business should you buy? In today’s episode, Codie goes over the exact type of businesses real estate investors should be looking into, what to do before you even begin your search, and how to hire someone else to run the business so you don’t have to. But you might think, “I have no experience doing ANYTHING like this.” Thankfully, you don’t need to be a former CEO or investing expert to buy profitable boring businesses, but you need something almost everyone has. From there, Codie dives deep into the secret of “talent management” and how to keep great employees around while making them rich, plus the one partnership tip that could stop you from getting scammed and losing hundreds of thousands of dollars (this happened to Codie). Want to buy a business and leave your nine-to-five behind? Tune in! In This Episode We Cover: How to buy a “boring” business that will build wealth for you  The passive income scam and why the money you make comes with a cost Hiring out your business so you can spend time doing what you want The talent management “secret” and how to keep the best employees around for decades The businesses that real estate investors should look at buying  Codie’s rules of thumb that she follows when buying ANY type of business And So Much More!

You need a real estate partnership. What keeps almost every real estate rookie from investing is the fear that they’ll fail or that they don’t have enough to get started. But what if you could join forces with an experienced investor and learn the real estate investing game while gaining equity? Or, what if you’re busy making money from a high-paid job or business and don’t want to manage tenants, toilets, or trash? Well, there’s a good chance a partnership could take your passive income to the next level. To help unlock the world of real estate partnership, Ashley Kehr and Tony Robinson from the Real Estate Rookie podcast join us and give a glimpse into their new book, Real Estate Partnerships. In it, they talk about the four reasons why most investors need a partner, where to find the right person to invest with, the different types of partnerships (equity vs. debt), and red flags that you CAN’T ignore. Both Ashley and Tony have built multimillion-dollar real estate portfolios thanks to partnering up. So, if you’ve tried to go at it alone and aren’t having much luck building wealth, this may be your sign to start searching for a partner who will help you build your rental property portfolio! Grab your copy of Real Estate Partnerships and use code “PARTNER801” at checkout for an exclusive discount. In This Episode We Cover: The four signs that you NEED a partnership to succeed in real estate  The red flags to RUN away from if you see them in a potential partner  Debt partnerships vs. equity partnerships and how the wrong one could kill your deal The partnership agreement and why you MUST sign one before you start investing together  Where to find the perfect real estate partner (they’re closer than you think!)

This time, we’re not just hearing from one successful guest but dozens of them as we get their take on the biggest mistakes, the worst wastes of money, the best advice they’ve ever received, and whether or not you’re too old (or young) to get rich. You’ll hear what’s holding them back today and the one thing they wished they had done earlier that would have made them millions more and saved thousands of hours. Stick around because this episode is a masterclass on making your first (or next) million from investors who are playing the game better than anyone else. Be sure to keep an eye on the BiggerPockets feed, as these full interviews will be released over the next few weeks!  In This Episode We Cover: What you should NEVER ignore if you’re building a rental portfolio or business Why focusing on making money while you’re young is a WASTE of time  The $3,000 purchase that Alex and Leila Hormozi wish they could take back Why you DON’T need money to make millions and an eight-figure mistake you CAN’T repeat Building your systems and processes NOW so you can relax while others work for you Shiny object syndrome and how it’s secretly making you broke  And So Much More!

Cody Davis and Christian Osgood built their multimillion-dollar rental property portfolio in a matter of years, using strategies that ANYONE, no matter their experience level, can use. But, how they do things is a little unconventional and probably goes against everything top real estate investors have been telling you. While the world looked to lock down as much debt as possible during 2020-2021’s low mortgage rates, Cody and Christian sought something else. This dynamic investing duo wanted long-term debt on excellent properties that could be paid off quickly, enabling them to own their portfolio outright. This meant that Cody and Christian would have to sacrifice a substantial amount of cash flow, keep their spending low, and only buy the best properties out there. How Cody and Christian bought the properties is a strategy you most likely haven’t heard of before. It’s so ingenious that if you follow the same steps as Cody and Christian, you’ll be able to get THE best properties, at the best price, from a seller who WANTS you to make money off them. Doesn’t sound possible in such a cutthroat industry, does it? Stick around to learn the EXACT steps Cody and Christian took to build their low-risk, high-reward, eight-figure portfolio. In This Episode We Cover: How Cody and Christian built a 130-unit rental portfolio in just a few years The three simple steps to seller financing and why you NEVER ask if an owner is selling Working with realtors and how to turn on-market deals into off-market steals  Where to find seller-financed properties and owners that are most likely to sell Mortgage rates, bank loans, and how to choose your own terms on your next loan How to NEVER lose your wealth and why most investors are in for a rude awakening And So Much More!

Instead of waiting, Jenni bought seven rentals in just three years, with almost unbelievable cash flow on each using what she calls the “golden triangle” method of investing. With this simple framework, Jenni was able to buy undervalued properties in cities that most investors don’t even have on their radar. The properties are cheaper, the profits are bigger, and if you copy Jenni’s method, you, too, can build a six-figure side income stream in just a few years. Surprisingly, Jenni still keeps her day job as a Cutco closing gift saleswoman. In fact, it’s what got her into real estate. After working with dozens of realtors a week, Jenni learned about buy and hold rental property investing. It didn’t take long before she bought her first property in an area most investors would avoid. But, thanks to careful planning and intentional investing, Jenni turned this cheap property into a $50K/year revenue stream. And that was just the start. Now, breaking all the “real estate rules,” Jenni is out to prove that almost any property can become a profitable vacation rental. Whether she’s adding game rooms, "redneck mini golf" courses, or cowboy pools, Jenni has turned lackluster properties into top-performing short-term rentals. If you follow her advice, you can do it too! In This Episode We Cover: The “golden triangle” method that ensures your rental will always be full Breaking the “real estate rules” and why boring locations bring in BIG cash flow Quitting your nine-to-five and why keeping your active income stream may be a better idea Unique amenities that will make your vacation rental stand out in a saturated market  The short-term rental listing tip that could give you a boost in bookings  How to invest in short-term rentals in 2023 (and what to avoid before you start)  And So Much More!

But don’t worry, David and Rob haven’t put their careers on the line to try and guess where home prices will be next year. Instead, we brought the expert panel from On the Market to give their best real estate predictions so David and Rob remain safe in the eyes of our darling listeners. Dave Meyer, host of On the Market and BiggerPockets VP of Data and Analytics, recaps the 2023 housing market and tells us what (and where) to look for as the year’s second half begins. Dave and the expert investor panel will review everything that happened over the past six months in real estate. From home prices correcting and failing to crash to inventory falling back down to historic lows, days on market dwindling, and the “lock-in effect” for homeowners, the 2023 housing market turned out to be nothing we would have expected. But is there hope for rental property owners and real estate investors? To answer that, our guests will give their mortgage rate, recession, and home price predictions. But that’s not all. They’ll also uncover some of the most underrated real estate markets across the nation, all showing strong signs of growth and huge profit potential.

But don’t worry, David and Rob haven’t put their careers on the line to try and guess where home prices will be next year. Instead, we brought the expert panel from On the Market to give their best real estate predictions so David and Rob remain safe in the eyes of our darling listeners. Dave Meyer, host of On the Market and BiggerPockets VP of Data and Analytics, recaps the 2023 housing market and tells us what (and where) to look for as the year’s second half begins. Dave and the expert investor panel will review everything that happened over the past six months in real estate. From home prices correcting and failing to crash to inventory falling back down to historic lows, days on market dwindling, and the “lock-in effect” for homeowners, the 2023 housing market turned out to be nothing we would have expected. But is there hope for rental property owners and real estate investors? To answer that, our guests will give their mortgage rate, recession, and home price predictions. But that’s not all. They’ll also uncover some of the most underrated real estate markets across the nation, all showing strong signs of growth and huge profit potential.

If you want to leave your nine-to-five behind, make six figures, and have ultimate time freedom, real estate investing may be your best bet. But, with so many influencers constantly pushing “more doors,” it seems like real estate is becoming a death race to retirement, not something that grants total financial freedom. If you want to ACTUALLY retire early, with fewer headaches, and a lot of passive income, Chad “Coach” Carson is who you should listen to. For the past year, Chad and his family have been living abroad in Spain. He’s taken time to learn Spanish, lounge around, and have a siesta while his rental properties create his passive income. The best part? Chad spends two hours (yes, TWO) a week running his rental property portfolio. But Chad didn’t need to build a real estate portfolio of a billion units to accomplish his goal of ultimate time flexibility. Instead, he built a “small and mighty” portfolio. In today’s episode, Chad walks through how to build a rental property portfolio that will help you reach financial freedom without owning hundreds of units. He also uncovers why debt and leverage aren’t always the best option and why you should pay off your properties before they’re due! You can learn more about Chad’s exact strategy in his new book, “The Small and Mighty Real Estate Investor.” Use promo code “SMALL795” for a special discount! In This Episode We Cover: How to retire early with rental properties and only work two hours per week When to take profits and when to reinvest in your portfolio Delayed gratification and why you SHOULD take “mini-retirements” on the road to financial freedom The five most commonly believed myths about building a real estate portfolio  Paying off your rentals early and the double benefit of being debt-free And So Much More!

If you know what it is and how to use it, you can pick up properties for only a hundred dollars, build your rental portfolio faster than ever, and reach financial freedom in mere years. And in 2023, when the housing market is still hot, and home prices have barely cooled off, creative finance could be the solution to no cash flow and overpriced deals. But before you creatively finance your next rental property, you’ll need to know which strategy to use and when to use it.  Jenn and Joe Delle Fave used creative finance to move from snowy Upstate New York to sunny Florida after escaping soul-crushing work. Jenn, a former teacher, loved her career, and the time she spent with her kids. But Joe was stuck at the car dealership, working late into the night, sacrificing family time to make more money. He knew he needed a way out but didn’t want to give up the financial security of a W2. Everything changed when he had the “light bulb” moment to try creative finance. Now, Jenn and Joe have run a full-time investing business, picking up pristine properties using strategies like seller financing, subject to, or wrap mortgages. They’ve acquired properties for very little down in some of the most competitive neighborhoods in the country, growing wealth WITH the time freedom they desired. Jenn and Joe give invaluable advice on which strategies work for which seller, the easiest way to get leads sent to you, and how you build wealth with real estate faster.  In This Episode We Cover: The EASIEST way to get dozens of off-market properties sent to you EVERY DAY The best creative financing strategies and when to use each Wrap mortgages explained and taking advantage of someone else’s low mortgage rate  Time freedom and the “golden handcuffs” that stop you from accomplishing your dreams The one thing you should ask EVERY seller before you buy a property  Investing with a spouse and the benefits of building a business together And So Much More!

One that will help you reach financial freedom, find purpose, and give you more opportunity to spend time with your family? Those are the reasons why almost all of us get into real estate investing, and while having a couple of rentals may not sound like a business to you, running your portfolio like a business will have immeasurable effects on your life. But first, you’ll need to know how the pros build businesses. Gary Harper, esteemed business coach, went from a rental property investor shooing away copper thieves to Fortune 500 executive and now teaches other entrepreneurs how to do the same. He knows what it takes to build a successful business, why so many entrepreneurs fail, and how to delegate and eliminate tasks to build a business you enjoy running. Sounds like a dream, right? In this special edition of Seeing Greene, David and Rob will take listener questions on starting a business, building a rental property portfolio, real estate partnerships, and what parents should do when entering the high-stress world of entrepreneurship. You’ll also hear why being fixated on profit could be a BIG mistake. All that and more are coming up in this episode! In This Episode We Cover: Going from employee to entrepreneur and what to focus on when building a business Scaling a busy business and how to start outsourcing and automating tasks you don’t want to do The “coaches” you can’t trust and signs that a mentor ACTUALLY has experience  Real estate partnerships and one of the biggest mistakes you can make when buying a property together  The work-life balance lie and what you should be focusing on instead How parents can balance raising kids and building a real estate portfolio And So Much More!

Now, near the halfway mark, Nate and Troy have made almost unbelievable progress in a real estate market most investors perceive as radioactive. With overpriced properties everywhere you look, out-of-whack cash flow, and high mortgage rates, will good deals ever come back? Thankfully for Nate and Troy, finding a deal was never the assignment; making a deal was. After going through difficult partnerships in the past, Nate and Troy were hesitant to hop in the game together. But after years of getting to know each other’s strengths and weaknesses, it was only natural for them to tackle big deals together instead of small deals apart. Now, with forty rental units under their belt, they’re well on their way to hitting their hundred-unit goal. But this wouldn’t have worked out if they hadn’t made one special phone call. In this episode, Nate and Troy will review their most recent acquisition, a fourteen-unit apartment complex with tricky financing in northwest Alabama. They’ll also share how calling one desperate listing agent unlocked a deal flow that brought dozens of units directly to them. If you’re struggling to invest in today’s demanding market and don’t think there are any deals worth the effort, this episode could change everything for you. In This Episode We Cover: The “desperate” real estate deals that NOBODY is looking at (and where to find them) Real estate partnerships and why investing together beats going at it alone  Exit strategies and the BIG mistake most partnerships make when getting started  Why you might be just one phone call away from the best real estate deal of your life Seller financing and how to use it to lower your loan costs and get a tricky deal done Raising private capital and who you should (and shouldn’t) accept money from  And So Much More!

What about a quick fix and flip that’ll net you six figures in profits? Or, maybe buy an office and make nearly half a million dollars while having your own workplace? It’s 2023, and the housing market has turned most real estate investors off. Everyone thinks that deals are impossible to find, but funnily enough, we keep hearing stories about real estate investors making massive profits while residential buyers cower in fear. So, where can you find these deals? We’ve brought back Kim Meredith-Hampton and Victor Steffen from the Tampa/St. Petersburg, Florida, area and the Dallas-Fort Worth, Texas, markets, respectively. Plus, Matthew Nicklin from southern seller’s market, Atlanta, Georgia, joins us as we review real deals from all three markets to show you that no matter the housing market cycle, you can STILL make money in real estate (even in 2023!) We’ll go over six individual deals, from turnkey medium-term rentals selling at zero percent mortgage rates (with seller financing) to easy, instant cash flow deals with perfect tenants in place. But maybe you’re not a buy and hold investor. If so, a couple of flip deals are brought on to show that six-figure profit potential still exists for the right properties. And, we’ll deep dive into one of the agent’s commercial real estate deals that made nearly half a million dollars in equity alone! In This Episode We Cover: Three hot southern housing markets where you can still find real estate deals  Signs of a stable market and why you want to see faster home sales  Seller financing and how to use it to score a rock-bottom mortgage rate on your next rental  How to use private lending to make a killing without getting your hands dirty on a deal “Office hacking” and turning unused space into cash flow and HUGE equity gains  Paying off your property faster and why having little-to-no cash flow may be worth an earlier retirement  And So Much More!

But, there are still a few overlooked rental markets that most investors aren’t aware of. In times like this, with investors ready to pounce on almost any property and other assets vastly underperforming real estate, you’ll need to think differently if you want to get ahead. Long gone are the days of buying any property in any market and expecting instant cash flow. Now, you’ve got to think like an expert investor and start Seeing Greene! David is back with another Seeing Greene episode as we touch on how investors can find deals in 2023, which markets are worth looking into, why low cash flow isn’t such a bad thing, and how to decide between buying a single-family or a multifamily rental. We’ve also got some trickier-than-usual questions this time, as a seventeen-year-old wants to know where he should invest a $100K inheritance. We’ll also get into the nitty gritty of paying off loans vs. refinancing, where to find distressed properties, and what to do when natural disasters threaten your rental business. Want to ask David a question? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene. Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can hop on a live Q&amp;A and get your question answered on the spot!

But, there are still a few overlooked rental markets that most investors aren’t aware of. In times like this, with investors ready to pounce on almost any property and other assets vastly underperforming real estate, you’ll need to think differently if you want to get ahead. Long gone are the days of buying any property in any market and expecting instant cash flow. Now, you’ve got to think like an expert investor and start Seeing Greene! David is back with another Seeing Greene episode as we touch on how investors can find deals in 2023, which markets are worth looking into, why low cash flow isn’t such a bad thing, and how to decide between buying a single-family or a multifamily rental. We’ve also got some trickier-than-usual questions this time, as a seventeen-year-old wants to know where he should invest a $100K inheritance. We’ll also get into the nitty gritty of paying off loans vs. refinancing, where to find distressed properties, and what to do when natural disasters threaten your rental business.

This strategy is so brilliant that most real estate investors assume it doesn’t exist or they can’t use it in their rental property portfolio. Lamon luckily stumbled upon this way to invest, and now, he’s growing his real estate portfolio at a pace unfathomable to most landlords. But Lamon didn’t start as some rental property investing expert. He was making a low income, working a job he had no passion for, and looking for any avenue that could help make him more money. When his wife suggested that they buy the house they were currently renting, Lamon put up a fight but eventually went along with the plan. It wasn’t until he moved out and rented his first home that the real estate investing lightbulb went off. From there, Lamon realized how quickly passive income could replace his paycheck. So, he made it his goal to buy one house a year. The plan was working, but then Lamon realized he could purchase homes without using his own money. In fact, Lamon could take the properties he already owned and use them to grow his rental property portfolio even faster. Now with over one hundred units to his name, Lamon wants to teach other investors (like you) how to do the same! In This Episode We Cover: Lamon’s “infinite return” financing method that’ll let you buy properties with NO money down “Cross collateralization” and how to use properties you already own to build your rental property portfolio Knowing your real estate market and why over-improving will kill your cash flow  Replacing your paycheck with passive income and going from renter to landlord  Getting around your lender's seasoning period and how to use your equity WITHOUT having to wait  And So Much More!

For most people, this would be the end of working, investing, or trying to better themselves. But for Brandon, this was only the start. Now a decade later, Brandon is managing close to one billion dollars in real estate, running numerous companies, and dedicating his efforts to eradicating human trafficking while simultaneously setting millions of Americans financially free. Brandon has, in almost every way, won the game of life, and he has five crucial tips to share with us today.

These lessons aren’t just crucial in achieving financial independence. When taken to heart and implemented correctly, they will allow you to level up your life, relationships, friendships, and businesses. They will also set you apart from the 99% of people who want success but refuse to go out and get it.

If you want to achieve financial freedom, start living your dream life, and live a life like Brandon, you’ll have to tune in. In This Episode We Cover: The five most important lessons for financial freedom and building a better life Knowing what you want (and going after it) even when fear takes over Pushing past resistance and why pros show up while amateurs sleep in The “crystal clear criteria” that makes buying real estate easier than ever before Building your “vivid vision” and designing a life that you would love to live  Thinking five steps ahead and how future-planning will make you rich  And So Much More!

That’s right, live from the Sea Shed are your beloved BiggerPockets hosts, Brandon and David! Can you feel the bromance brewing through your speakers, or is it just us? David flew out to attend one of Brandon’s recent events and conduct a two-part interview with one of the most popular property investors on the planet! And boy, oh boy, has Brandon been busy! In this episode, David puts Brandon in the hot seat, going through a fire round of top-asked questions to get Brandon’s input on not just real estate but life. You’ll hear Brandon talk about housing market crash prophecies and whether or not he thinks they’ll come true, the struggles he’s facing with today’s intense competition, an unflattering tattoo that may or may not be part of a bet gone wrong, and why humiliation is one of the BEST ways to get you in the zone to WIN. But that’s not all; you’ll hear about how Brandon used social media to build his entire real estate business, why NOW is the time to lock down good debt (and invest!), and why you need to STOP trying to survive and start looking to thrive! Tune in as we take a nostalgic walk down metaphor lane with Brandon and David! In This Episode We Cover: Finding financial freedom and why the everyday struggle to survive is NOT enough Investing in 2023 and whether or not the housing market could be headed for a crash Using social media to raise private capital, find employees, and grow your business Facing humiliation and transforming negative emotions into the fire that propels you forward Why you can’t buy happiness, but you CAN buy an “environment” that makes you happy  An update on Brandon’s bet with InvestorGirlBritt over who will get an embarrassing new tattoo  And So Much More!

Real estate may be the best way to get there. Just follow the same steps Dean Rogers took. In just a decade, Dean went from making $65,000 per year to over a million dollars; but the payoff wasn’t instantaneous. After being put in a position that most people would kill to be in, Dean left behind a seven-figure salary, glitz, glamor, fame, and a childhood dream to do something that fulfilled him. He had to start over entirely while his peers made more money than most of us could imagine. Dean took over a ninety-percent pay cut just to enter the tireless, W2 working world that he thought he would excel in. After realizing that hard work and continuous overachieving gets you nothing but a meager pay raise, he knew he had to go in another direction. He stumbled upon a real estate podcast, started investing with no money (seriously!), and grew a small side hustle into a full-on business that pays him as much as only professional athletes make. Dean’s story goes from riches to rags to riches again as he left his dangerous yet high-paying career to live paycheck to paycheck doing something that he knew would pay off Now, he rakes in more money in one year than most Americans make in a decade, controlling his own life, putting his health and family first, and helping new investors, like you, along the way. Want to make your millions? Tune in!  In This Episode We Cover: How Dean does over 100 real estate deals per year and profits seven figures Walking away from a high salary when you know that the career isn’t worth the cash Investing with no money and how to do your first deal without ANY experience Why you should always make this ONE phone call before partnering with anyone Losing six figures on bad deals and red flags that you should look out for Building your “friends with benefits” that all build wealth together And So Much More!

You book a trip to the beach, get on your swimsuit, and are about to head out the door, but then, your tenant calls you. “The toilet is leaking,” “I lost my keys,” “The oven just went out.” Instead of enjoying your vacation, you’re spending hours looking up plumbers, locksmiths, and electricians. You’re juggling phone calls while trying to enjoy your time off. Wasn’t real estate investing supposed to be passive? This is the scenario that most landlords are living in. And it only gets worse the more homes you buy and the more money you make. But, there is a way never to pick up another tenant phone call again while giving your renters the best experience imaginable. All you have to do is build a system like Pasha Maleknia did. Pasha went from 218 tenant phone calls a year to only one by creating and tweaking this passive income system. In today’s episode, he’ll provide the exact steps so you can do it too. Pasha’s system isn’t complex, and most of it can be built for free. There’s no expensive software or complicated formulas to create this rental portfolio system. If you have some time to set aside from your day, you can build something like this in a matter of hours. So, are you ready to trade tenant phone calls for more trips to the beach? If so, stick around! Grab Pasha’s system spreadsheet template here. In This Episode We Cover: The five-step system to turn a nightmare rental portfolio into truly passive income Why you DON’T need to spend a lot of money or time building a rental systems Finding your “why” behind real estate investing and financial freedom How Henry Washington saved over twenty hours immediately by implementing one super simple system The two things you need to build any system quickly and cheaply And So Much More!

According to experienced investors like Jessie Rodriguez, now is one of the best times in recent memory to start building wealth. As a multi-decade house-flipping veteran, Jessie understands how the housing market works. He lost his business, his home, and the majority of his wealth in 2007 but has made it out not only surviving but thriving with a house-flipping business that prints cash. And he knows something that you probably don’t. The past few years have been a bloodbath for flippers. With home prices correcting and buyers fleeing the market, many flippers from years back aren’t around today. But, the tide has started to turn, and buyers are getting back into bidding wars, willing to spend good money on homes that fit their remote-first lifestyle. Jessie and his team are HEAVILY capitalizing on this, and more good news may be on the way. In this episode, Jessie talks about rebuilding his business after losing it all in 2007, why now may be one of the BEST times to start house flipping, key indicators of a market shift that most investors miss, the biggest myth in today’s real estate space, and how Jessie’s team is redeveloping a historic building and turning it into a passive income stream that offers millions in profits. The best part? You can copy Jessie’s strategy to build your own wealth in 2023, so don’t skip this! In This Episode We Cover: Rebuilding your wealth after losing EVERYTHING in a financial crash  The biggest myth of 2023 real estate and why most investors are wasting time  Signs of a housing market shift and the metrics that predict where we’re headed  Finding a mentor and how the right one can put you decades beyond the competition  Redeveloping historic real estate and the unusual deals that are making Jessie a fortune  Building a seven-figure passive income stream, EVEN if you’re new to rentals  And So Much More!

With banks tightening their funding, forcing investors to refinance at higher rates and occupancy down across multiple sectors, commercial could be crashing very soon. But we aren’t here to prompt fear for real estate investing; instead, we’re presenting some opportunities to build wealth, even when most investors think the sky is falling. To help give us a read on the whole commercial real estate situation is Willy Walker, CEO of Walker &amp; Dunlop, one of the largest commercial real estate finance companies in the nation. Willy knows precisely what’s happening in the industry because he is the industry.

And he has some news to share. Willy touches on the “pain to come” for commercial real estate, why residential has stayed safe, big investors’ refinancing dilemma, and why banks are pulling out of lending for large assets. With commercial investors needing cash to fund their deals but failing to find it, everyday investors (just like you) could help fill the void and walk away with a sizable profit. If you want to fuel your wealth, not your fear, stick around!   In This Episode We Cover: The impending commercial real estate crash and who’s in danger  Balloon loans, risky refinances, and why high mortgage rates have put investors in a tough spot Residential vs. commercial real estate and why one can fall while the other holds strong Private lending and how you can take advantage of banks pulling back from larger investments  Asset classes that could have the biggest opportunity if a crash hits  US debt and how increasing the debt ceiling will lead to unmanageable consequences  And So Much More!

Thankfully, we’ve got some experts who do. Finding a below-market-value property is much easier than most people think. So, why is it SO difficult for new real estate investors to find deals instead of duds? If you’re scrolling through popular real estate listing sites, hoping you’ll stumble upon the deal of a lifetime, you may be wasting your time. Today, we present four time-tested, easily-implemented ways to find undervalued, off-market real estate so you can build wealth faster. Rob Abasolo (Robuilt) takes the helm on this episode as he welcomes Henry Washington and James Dainard from the On the Market podcast and Sam Primm, expert investor from the St. Louis area. Henry, James, and Sam have collectively bought thousands of off-market properties. Whether they’re buying them to fix and flip, hold as rentals, or wholesale to other investors, the combined knowledge between these three investors is almost incalculable. They’ve done more deals than hundreds of other investors and know what works and, more importantly, what doesn’t. In this episode, you’ll learn EVERYTHING you need to know about finding off-market real estate deals, tactics that are best for beginners vs. experienced investors, which strategies cost the most money and which you can try for FREE, and how you can find your first off-market deal TODAY. These three investors PROVE that buying deals with huge equity upside and instant profit is NOT impossible in 2023; you just need to know where to look! In This Episode We Cover: The medium-term rental strategy explained and how to use it to make 400% more cash flow Short-term rental regulations and why many hosts may need to switch to medium-term stays Best real estate markets for medium-term rentals and signs of low vacancy Unique amenities that will get you CONSTANT business (bikes, cars, grocery delivery, and more!) Rental contracts and how to use hospitals, insurance companies, construction crews, and more to fill up your rental  Whether or not allowing pets in your rental is EVER the right move to make And So Much More!

Rent growth is slowing, mortgage rates are rising, and property prices are staying put. So where can you find more room to profit with your rental property? The answer is medium-term rentals! Until a couple of years ago, medium-term rentals, also called corporate rentals or traveling nurse rentals, were the sleepy investing strategy that only experienced investors like Jesse Vasquez knew about. But now, they’ve become (arguably) the best rental property on the planet. With medium-term rentals, you can often make four (or more) times the rent than a regular rental. You’ll also have minimal turnover, more professional tenants, and be able to book out your place at a high monthly rate for four, five, or six months at a time. They’re easier to manage than short-term rentals but have substantially more cash flow than long-term rentals. So, how do you get in on this high-cash flow craze? We brought Jesse back to the show for a step-by-step tutorial on starting, running, and profiting with a medium-term rental. He gives in-depth answers on how much it costs to start, the best locations to buy (or rent), how to get the biggest rental contracts from top corporations, amenities guests will expect, and what to charge. If you want to take your rental property from break-even to making bank, this is the strategy for you!

Work as a pizza delivery driver! Not only will you learn how to handle high-pressure situations, but you might also find your next property on a regular pizza run! At least that’s what Pamela Bardhi did to build her twenty-seven-unit rental property portfolio and reach financial independence in her late twenties! Pamela’s family moved to the United States when she was just five years old, thrusting her into the restaurant business before she realized that real estate was her true passion. Pamela did everything right. She studied hard, got scholarships, worked at internships, and built her own business, but she was still miserable. Working every day of the week, often twelve hours at a time, was eating away at her. She wanted some side income to help her dial back the time spent building her business, but when her first deal turned into a $100,000 profit, the property game was too enticing to resist. Since then, she’s scaled to massive heights and wants you to do the same. With twenty-seven rental units, over one hundred deals done, and a financially free lifestyle by thirty-one, Pamela knows what it takes to build a property portfolio FAST. But she also knows what can make it crumble. Pamela shares her three BIGGEST lessons learned from doing over one hundred deals and how she turned delivering pizzas into a passive income stream that will create generational wealth for her whole family. In This Episode We Cover: How to reach financial independence with rentals in under ten years  The three biggest lessons every real estate investor must learn to NOT get burnt on a deal Passive vs. active income and why the investor life isn’t for everyone  Becoming your own boss and quitting corporate to do what truly fuels you How the right mentor can immensely speed up your road to early retirement  Real estate partnership red flags that’ll lead to you losing money or pulling your hair out  And So Much More!

Buying a property every year or two is good, but it won’t give you the financial freedom you desire. However, if you know how to double, triple, or quadruple the amount of real estate you’re acquiring without adding tons of tasks (or stress) to your plate, you could be financially independent faster than you’ve ever thought. This is precisely what Niti Jamdar &amp; Palak Shah did, building a ten-million-dollar real estate portfolio in less than a decade. As two burnt-out corporate workers, Niti and Palak were tired of putting their jobs before their future family. So after having children, they realized it was time to start building something that would help them regain their freedom instead of shackling them to golden handcuffs.

Buying a property every year or two is good, but it won’t give you the financial freedom you desire. However, if you know how to double, triple, or quadruple the amount of real estate you’re acquiring without adding tons of tasks (or stress) to your plate, you could be financially independent faster than you’ve ever thought. This is precisely what Niti Jamdar &amp; Palak Shah did, building a ten-million-dollar real estate portfolio in less than a decade. As two burnt-out corporate workers, Niti and Palak were tired of putting their jobs before their future family. So after having children, they realized it was time to start building something that would help them regain their freedom instead of shackling them to golden handcuffs. With a busy schedule and little time, Niti and Palak were forced to automate, delegate, and systematize their real estate business. And now, you can copy their exact steps. In their newest book, Accelerate Your Real Estate: Build a Hands-Off Rental Portfolio with the SCALE Strategy, Niti and Palak uncover the five-step system to unlock eight-figure wealth. They used this same strategy to build their portfolio with little free time or money to throw at projects.

Maybe you’re in your forties, fifties, or sixties and have decided that now is the time to put passive income first. With retirement coming up in a couple of decades (or even years), what can you do to build the nest egg that’ll allow you to enjoy your time away from work? Is it even possible to retire with rentals if you didn’t start in your twenties or thirties? For those tired of the traditional route to retirement, stick around! You’ve hit the jackpot on this Seeing Greene show; it’s episode number 777! But, unlike a casino, everything here is free, and we’re NOT asking you to gamble away your life savings. Instead, David will touch on some of the most crucial questions about real estate investing. From building your retirement with rentals to investing in “cheap” out-of-state markets, buying mobile homes as vacation rentals, and why you CAN’T control cash flow, but you can control something MUCH more important. Want to ask David a question? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene. Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can hop on a live Q&amp;A and get your question answered on the spot! In This Episode We Cover: Turning a $100K high school into a $42K/month apartment complex  What to do when your first flip or real estate deal becomes a huge flop  The smartest way to shoot up your property’s value and boost your neighborhood’s desirability Unbelievable real estate conversion projects and why creative investing often has the most cash flow Raising private capital when doing large deals and why you NEED partners with skills you don’t possess Signs that your real estate agent might be the love of your life  And So Much More!

We’ve talked to hundreds of investors that have flipped houses, bought apartment complexes, storage facilities, and more. But a high school? A high school rental property? Surely this has to be a first. If you want to know the pioneer behind this absolutely insane passive income project, look no further than Jesse Wig, who turned a dilapidated high school into a thirty-one-unit apartment building. But before Jesse went on a literal wild ride through this high school, he faced defeats that would stop most investors in their tracks. After making just ten dollars per hour working under a flipper, Jesse tried to do his first deal himself, but things didn’t go to plan. He walked away from his first real estate deal in debt with a massive loss but decided to try again. Jesse learned quickly from his mistakes and started buying rentals in an up-and-coming area right outside of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.  Through a brilliant investing tactic that we’ve never heard of before, Jesse was able to catapult and control his rental properties’ values, skyrocketing his personal wealth while bringing up an entire neighborhood with him. Soon after that, he found his off-market high school and, through some savvy partnerships and serious work, turned it into a cash cow unlike anything we’ve ever seen on the show. Jesse is about to school us on the right way to do real estate!

But, few of us would have ever expected the unimaginable rent hikes of 2020-2022. With major metros seeing double-digit year-over-year rent percentage bumps, residents were forced to throw a larger chunk of their income toward housing. Now, with higher rent prices than ever before, America has become “rent-burdened,” and a dangerous threshold has been crossed. What’s causing this rise in rents? Are investors to blame? And what’s a solution that could benefit builders, buyers, and renters? We’ve got Lu Chen and Thomas LaSalvia from Moody’s Commercial Real Estate division to give us their findings. Lu and Thomas’s team have been tracking rent prices carefully, logging which cities have seen the most significant price increases, which are becoming increasingly unaffordable, and what can be done about the problem. With a lack of housing supply and inflation eating away Americans’ income, what can everyday investors like us do? Thankfully, there is a solution to this problem that could help curb unaffordability while presenting a profit for investors. Lu and Thomas go over exactly what would have to happen to return to a normalized, affordable housing market and what’s hurting our efforts to get there.

While this may sound like doomsday prophesying or over-bullish investor attitudes towards properties, the fact is that most investors today won’t make it.

When everything could end, thoughts of your partner, children, and family come to mind, and most notably, what you left behind for them. Pasha Maleknia was thrown into a warzone and came within minutes of meeting his end. As he sat, not knowing whether or not he would ever see his wife again, he made a promise to build financial freedom for his family so that if anything happened to him, they would be protected. Pasha kept his promise and is here to share exactly how he got it done. Through chaos, Pasha was given a second chance at building the life he dreamed of, starting a real estate investment portfolio that has grown to a double-digit unit count with close to six figures in expected cash flow. None of what he did was easy, but using his background in coding, systems, and optimizing everything for efficiency, Pasha is building a hands-off real estate empire that will set his whole family financially free. If you’ve struggled to progress with rental properties, do NOT miss out on Pasha’s story. He explains exactly how his “why” forced him to reach financial freedom in only a few years and what he’s doing now to ensure his wealth never stops growing. Don’t wait for it to be too late. Put your life in your hands, and take Pasha’s words to heart. In This Episode We Cover: The near-death experience that forced Pasha to find financial freedom for his family  Building your “income-producing box” that will take care of your family for decades  DIY rehabs and why you DON’T need to know everything before you start investing  Pasha’s killer first rental property and the “surprise” basement that came with it  Using the BRRRR method to quickly multiply your portfolio without much cash needed  How to automate your ENTIRE rental property portfolio so you do nothing  And So Much More!

For most people getting into rental property investing in the mid-2010s, profitable properties were plentiful, cash flow was almost automatic, and equity was flowing in the tens (if not hundreds) of thousands every year. Unfortunately, this real estate market is long gone. Now, there’s blood in the streets as new investors try to salvage sickly-looking deals that don’t cash flow and come with pathetic-looking profits. And maybe, just maybe, that’s why now is the best time to buy. Make no mistake, real estate investing isn’t easy, and just buying any house WON’T make you rich. But, the 2023 housing market has far more opportunity than most people think, and David Greene, Henry Washington, and Rob Abasolo are here to explain how. These three investors have been gobbling up rental properties as quickly as possible. And even with lower margins, slim cash flow, and limited equity, there is some method to their madness. If NOTHING you’re looking at is cash flowing and almost every home seems overpriced (especially with today’s mortgage rates), this is THE episode to tune into. In it, David, Henry, and Rob will detail how you can “create” a profitable property while the masses sit on the sidelines, as well as go over real, authentic deals they’re doing today to show you it isn’t impossible to invest in 2023.  In This Episode We Cover: How to analyze a real estate deal and what to do if none of the properties show a profit  The 2023 housing market and how things have changed over the past few years Investor expectations and why the times of “get rich quick” are long gone  How to build, buy, or force equity into your rentals so you get rich in the background Simple steps the average investor can do to make their real estate deals work  Renting vs. flipping and which exit to take in a volatile housing market  And So Much More!

Most people will either tell you it’s impossible to buy an affordable home or that those buying affordable homes are outright stupid. The term “affordable” has been correlated with inexperienced buyers getting cheap deals on homes, often ending up in trailer parks or something of the sort. But things have changed. Mortgage rates are at decade highs, home prices tower over what everyday workers can afford, and a new age of affordability is upon us—we’re here to unlock it for you. A new forest of David Greenery has sprouted as we welcome Kristina Smallhorn and Rob Abasolo onto this episode of Seeing Greene. Kristina, Louisiana-based realtor, has been fighting for affordability, helping get her clients into creative homes that don’t break the bank. She’s here to dispel all the myths about affordable housing, manufactured homes, modular homes, land investing, and more. We’ll touch on build-to-rent homes and who should NOT be investing in them, green flags to look out for when buying land, and the danger behind new forty-year mortgages. Want to ask David a question? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene. Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can hop on a live Q&amp;A and get your question answered on the spot! In This Episode We Cover: Affordability in 2023 and how homebuyers can still purchase even with high home prices Modular homes and how these cheaper builds are quickly becoming the high-quality norm Build-to-rent properties and whether or not appreciation is worth the lack of cash flow Red (and green) flags to watch out for when buying land, plus how to know a plot can even be built on The forty-year mortgage explained and why it may be a BAD idea for desperate borrowers Misconceptions about affordable housing and why “mobile homes” aren’t what you think And So Much More!

For years, you’ve been socking away money into your IRA or 401(k) to ensure an abundant retirement. The problem? You’ve only been able to invest those funds into passive investments like stocks, bonds, and mutual funds. What about the investors who want a more active income stream with bigger tax benefits, more equity upside, and plenty of cash flow? Can you use your retirement accounts to build wealth with real estate? If you ask Kaaren Hall, her answer is a resounding yes. Kaaren saw quickly how the real money was being made in real estate, so she began investing herself, later realizing that she could use her retirement funds to build a real estate portfolio faster. She founded uDirect IRA Services to help other investors build wealth a better way, opening up more options for passive income, so your retirement accounts can grow into the millions. If you want to scale your real estate portfolio but don’t have the cash on hand, this could be your PERFECT option. Kaaren goes over exactly how to use your retirement accounts to invest in real estate, what you can (and definitely can’t) do when investing this way, and how you can start raising capital for your own deal using other people’s retirement funds. This is a $40 trillion untapped opportunity, so don’t miss out! In This Episode We Cover: Tax-free real estate profits and using self-directed IRAs to build your retirement accounts How Kaaren used retirement funds to buy her newest investment property  The self-directed IRA explained and why SO many savvy investors use one  The “layers” of retirement that’ll help you build massive wealth for later in life  Mistakes you can make when using self-directed funds to invest (and how to avoid them) And So Much More!

It’s one of the most popular real estate investing strategies around, allowing almost anyone to take a small amount of money and turn it into an extensive rental property portfolio. And while this may seem complicated to imagine for the everyday worker or small landlord, BRRRR can change your life and supercharge your wealth, but only if you know how it works.

It’s one of the most popular real estate investing strategies around, allowing almost anyone to take a small amount of money and turn it into an extensive rental property portfolio.

With sellers still riding the highs of 2022, buyers are at a crossroads; keep pursuing deals or wait for the market to go south. And, with mortgage rates rising and short-term financing coming due, many multifamily owners could be forced to sell their properties to the highest bidder. While some of this may sound like speculation, we’ve got a multifamily forecast straight from an expert in the industry, Angie Smith, from Strategic Management Partners. Angie and her company manage 25,000 rental units at a time. Yes, you read that right! For the past decade, Angie has been the go-to manager for top apartment complexes across Georgia, dealing with everything from noisy tenants to in-unit farms and goat grilling operations (seriously). She knows the ins and outs of property management, what makes a good property manager, and why self-managing isn’t always the wisest move. In this episode, Angie gives her take on the 2023 housing market and when she thinks multifamily will start to get shaky, why most investors are wrong about property management, how to choose a property manager, and the questions you should ask ANY management company before you hire them. If you want TRULY passive income through real estate, you DON’T want to manage your rentals alone.  In This Episode We Cover 2023 multifamily market updates and when prices could start to fall Lessons learned from managing 25,000 rental units, plus an INSANE story about an in-unit butchery Third-party property management vs. self-management (and who can handle it)  Three questions to ask ANY property manager before you hire them  “Receivership” and what happens to owners who can’t pay their bills  What you should NOT ask a property manager to do on your behalf  And So Much More!

Markets like these two exploded in 2020-2022 and are still seeing strong demographic signs that more growth could be on the way. But, as two markets that have witnessed some of the most dramatic price appreciation in history, is now a worthwhile time to invest? In this episode, we’re doing a market deep dive into two hot housing markets, Tampa, Florida, and Dallas, Texas. These two metro areas saw population booms like never before, shooting their home prices high and keeping competition hot, even as rates rise. But are these two markets starting to see a slowdown in 2023, or are there surefire signs that another wave of buyer activity is about to take place? With so many Americans moving to Texas and Florida, could this be the appreciation play of a lifetime? We’re joined by Kim Meredith-Hampton and Victor Steffen, realtors in the Tampa and Dallas areas, respectively, to talk with David Greene and Dave Meyer about the potential of these two property markets. They’ll touch on how to find cash flow even with high home prices, the strategies they’re using today to lock in wealth-building buys for their clients, and why the days of bidding wars and buyer ferocity may be far from over. In This Episode We Cover: Updates on the Tampa and Dallas markets and whether or not there are still opportunities to buy Florida cash flow and whether or not the sunshine state has been tapped out of passive income  The Texas “BEAF” strategy wealthy investors are using to buy better properties  Short-term rental risk and regulations and what to do if your BnB gets banned  Out-of-state investing and which investors should put money into these property markets Mortgage rate impacts and what high home costs have done to buyer competition  And So Much More!

Most real estate investors go gung-ho from the start, buying as many cheap rental properties as possible, only later to realize their mistake. But here’s the thing; you don’t need to invest in sketchy markets or buy dirt-cheap rentals to make money, you just need a bit of creativity if you want to get ahead. On this episode of Seeing Greene, we’re taking you through a plethora of investing strategies. We talk about how to invest in real estate when at the tail end of your career, whether to convert your garage into a rental or buy an out-of-state investment, the true cost of holding onto a risky rental property, and why your “cash flow” numbers probably aren’t what they seem. And, if you’re a young investor thinking of skipping college to dive head-first into real estate, you may want to hear David’s advice before you make that move. Want to ask David a question? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene. Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can hop on a live Q&amp;A and get your question answered on the spot! In This Episode We Cover: House hacking in an expensive market vs. buying an out-of-state rental  Garage conversions and the surprising profits of turning storage space into a rental unit Going to college vs. becoming an agent and why you don’t have to choose between the two The low-risk way to begin real estate investing (even if you’re starting late!) How many bank accounts you REALLY need when running a rental portfolio When to give up on a risky rental property that has high expenses 1031 exchanges explained and how to dodge taxes when buying a new property And So Much More!

You may be making good money at your job, but the long days, longer nights, lack of sleep, and limited time off is probably leaving you feeling fatigued. This is exactly how Brittany Swait felt after a severe diagnosis put her life in danger. She was working harder than ever, but the time with her family was slowly slipping away. That was until she started investing. Brittany was able to build a fifty-nine-unit rental property portfolio in just three years. These properties bring in a staggering $200,000 per year passive paycheck, allowing Brittany to focus on her family, not take tasks from a boss. But this portfolio wasn’t easy to build, even though it happened quickly. Brittany had to learn the BRRRR method, take considerable risks (like draining her retirement accounts), and put herself in an entirely new position. Now, just a few years later, Brittany is building her rental property portfolio at a fast pace, but she loves every minute of it. In this episode, she’ll walk through the exact strategy she uses to make such high cash flow, her five tips for remodeling and renovating that will save you TONS of time, and how she’s been able to pull her cash out of the deals she’s doing. If you want to scale your real estate portfolio, Brittany is the person to listen to.   In This Episode We Cover: The one skill that allowed Brittany to scale from zero to fifty-nine rentals in three years Medium-term rental investing and how to triple your rent with one strategic move Using Facebook to find off-market deals and the one factor that matters MUCH more than you’d think How to estimate rehab costs and five tips you MUST follow when doing a renovation  BRRRRing in 2023 and how to get around the one-year seasoning requirement for a cash-out refinance  Being more than your job and how to build a life that YOU are in control of  And So Much More!

And while most of us know her from Shark Tank, Barbara swims in a league of her own as one of the most successful real estate investors and brokers in New York City. She knows the up-and-coming areas, the overpriced hipster neighborhoods, the streets to stray away from, and which will make you rich when owning real estate. And while Barbara has made a killing, she’s done it in a way foreign to almost any other real estate investor. If you want to know the “formula” for making a fortune, this is the episode to tune into. In it, Barbara uncovers the exact way she finds the hottest rental markets before anyone else, why she consistently overpays for properties, the reason you should partner on almost EVERY deal you do, and why small-time investors are MUCH more likely to succeed than the big players. Not only that, but Barbara also shares her past failures and why falling flat on her face was what she needed to see great success. She talks about her infamous word-of-mouth campaign that sold out an eighty-unit apartment complex in hours, the “Corcoran Report” that landed her on the front page of The New York Times, and why you MUST talk to waiters whenever investing in a new area.  In This Episode We Cover: Barbara’s investing formula that will make you a FORTUNE (if you take the risk!) A terrible first real estate investment and a crucial finding Barbara learned from failing Overpaying for properties and why savvy investors don’t worry about the purchase price Cash-out refinances and why Barbara is ALWAYS taking money out of her properties Almost unbelievable marketing moves that Barbara made to boost her business Whether or not buying with today’s “high” mortgage rates is a mistake Why taking a night drive could be your key to finding the best real estate markets  And So Much More!

What if you were raised on the other side of the world, where even a basic education had to be fought for, and every opportunity was a constant struggle? This is the real story of Yamundow Camara, who went from sleeping on a dirt floor in a small village of Gambia to making a million dollars per year thanks to real estate. Yamundow grew up in an environment foreign to many of us. When her parents passed away in her youth, she was forced to live with relatives that treated her as a nuisance, not someone worth nurturing. She slept on the floor of her family’s home and was sometimes lucky enough to have a cardboard box as a mattress. She was set to be wed in her early teenage years, but thanks to her drive, determination, and pleading of her aunts, Yamundow was given a chance to go to high school and college and later immigrate to the US. From there, Yamundow put success as her sole focus. She not only academically overachieved, but was able to do an INCREDIBLE amount of investing with almost no money, no credit score, and no experience in the industry. She now sits on over thirty rental units, with a monthly income that rivals most Americans’ yearly salaries. Yamundow has one of the most incredible stories we’ve ever shared on the podcast, and you’ll have to tune in to hear her unimaginable path to success. In This Episode We Cover: How Yamundow went from complete poverty to making $80,000 in cash flow a month  Putting education first and the true value of hard work and perseverance  Investing with NO credit score and VERY little money and how to find banks that will lend to you Working two jobs and why increasing your income is ESSENTIAL to building wealth Out-of-state real estate investing and what to do when your local market is too expensive How to find (and keep) quality contractors, property managers, and other team members Using the BiggerPockets Rental Property Calculators to make sure a deal is worth doing And So Much More!

For a few months, homebuyers took a sigh of relief as competition stayed low, prices began to drop, and the real estate market returned to reality. But it seems like the days of sweet deals and plenty of showings are now behind us as homebuyers are jumping back into the market. So what’s causing this housing market madness to refuel, and are we returning to 2020-2022’s crazy competition? In this BiggerNews update, David Greene and Dave Meyer discuss some top headlines affecting the housing market in 2023. First, they’ll get into the nitty gritty of new inflation data and why prices are still high even after some good news. Next, they’ll talk about the newest real estate recovery and give their spring 2023 housing market predictions on whether or not home prices could rise and competition could return.

For a few months, homebuyers took a sigh of relief as competition stayed low, prices began to drop, and the real estate market returned to reality. But it seems like the days of sweet deals and plenty of showings are now behind us as homebuyers are jumping back into the market. So what’s causing this housing market madness to refuel, and are we returning to 2020-2022’s crazy competition? In this BiggerNews update, David Greene and Dave Meyer discuss some top headlines affecting the housing market in 2023. First, they’ll get into the nitty gritty of new inflation data and why prices are still high even after some good news. Next, they’ll talk about the newest real estate recovery and give their spring 2023 housing market predictions on whether or not home prices could rise and competition could return. Then, a debate over how the US dollar could be replaced as the world’s reserve currency and which countries are out to take its place. Plus, if you’ve been waiting to get your hands on a new short-term rental property, you could be in luck. Recent data points to a stark shift in vacation home demand as the vacation rental market gets saturated and work from home starts to level off.  If you want up-to-date data on everything happening in the housing market and beyond, tune in and grab Dave’s FREE Q2 real estate report!  In This Episode We Cover: Housing market hysteria and what’s causing homebuyers to jump back into the bidding wars Inflation updates and how close we are to returning to the golden 2% inflation rate Vacation home demand drop-off and what’s causing buyers to ditch their dreams of a beach house De-dollarization, the war against the USD, and which countries are dropping the dollar Real estate price predictions and whether or not we’ll see the yearly price run-up during spring/summer Dave’s FREE Q2 housing market report (and where to get it) And So Much More!

Cash flow vs. consistent dividends. Equity vs. price-to-earnings. If you’re reading this right now, chances are that you’re more of a real estate investor than a stock picker. But maybe you’re on the wrong side. Does the passivity of stock investing beat buying properties? Or do things like depreciation, tax write-offs, and the ability to use leverage while having tangible assets take the cake when it comes to the stock vs. real estate debate? And what about investing in 2023 as the economy continues to falter?  We brought on return guest, stock investing expert, and host of We Study Billionaires, Trey Lockerbie, to put him head-to-head against some of the most famous names in real estate podcasting. Rob Abasolo emcees this battle of investment strategies as Dave Meyer and Henry Washington bring in the housing heat. And while no physical jabs are thrown, Trey and our real estate investing experts put these two popular asset classes head-to-head to see which is a better bet for today’s investors. And if you’re trying to scoop up deals at a discount, we touch on whether stocks or real estate are better bets during a recession, which comes out on top, and the risks you MUST know about before investing in either asset class.

He didn’t invent creative finance, seller financing, or subject to investing. Instead, he perfected it, buying deals often with zero dollars down, low (or no) interest, and with terms any investor would dream of. But maybe you don’t know what creative finance is. Maybe the terms “seller financing” or “subject to” have never been mentioned to you before. As Pace describes in this episode, this industry-wide ignorance of creative finance is by design and keeps you from building wealth. To Pace, creative finance is the ultimate key to building a big rental property portfolio. But most sellers, buyers, and real estate agents don’t know about it. Describe creative finance to a regular realtor, and you’ll get laughed out of the listing. But, bring it up to a buyer, and suddenly everything changes. Don’t believe us? Pace brings up numerous examples in today’s show of how he was able to get real estate deals done that agents and realtors alike thought impossible. In this episode, you’ll get a complete intro to creative finance. Pace runs through the definitions, how each strategy works, why NOBODY talks about creative financing, and how YOU can start investing today (yes, TODAY!) with zero dollars out of your pocket and even with limited experience. Ready to start your rental portfolio? Tune in and get your copy of Pace’s new book, Wealth without Cash, today!  In This Episode We Cover: How Pace Morby buys multifamily real estate for NO MONEY out of pocket  Pace’s new BiggerPockets book that’ll help you get your first creative finance deal done  Seller financing explained and using it when a seller won’t budge on purchase price  The “subject to” strategy and how to lock in a rock-bottom mortgage rate even in 2023 Underwriting a real estate deal and seller lies that can often trick an inexperienced buyer Tax benefits of creative financing and how it makes a win-win for you and a buyer  The risks of subject to and seller financing and how to EASILY avoid them  And So Much More!

But with interest rates at decade-long highs, rents starting to stagnate, and home prices still in unaffordable territory, making cash flow, or breaking even for that matter, has become challenging. And while the “golden age” of cash flow real estate investing might be over, there are still numerous ways to bring in more passive income on properties you already own. We’re back for another Seeing Greene, where your favorite investor, broker, and “definitely not a loan expert,” David Greene, is back to answer YOUR real estate investing questions. This time around, we’ve got some serious questions about which rental properties are worth buying, how to get around zoning headaches, whether building an ADU is worth the money, and whether or not now is the right time to sell a high-equity property. David also touches on the EASIEST way to increase your cash flow in 2023 and the investing method that EVERY investor should focus on. Want to ask David a question? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene. Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can hop on a live Q&amp;A and get your question answered on the spot! In This Episode We Cover: How to “supercharge” your real estate cash flow by looking for money in places most investors avoid Zoning requirements and how to get around them by building ADUs or making some simple rental property tweaks Investing out of state and whether selling your primary residence to buy rentals is ever worth it How to start and structure a real estate partnership (and why David invests solo) Building an ADU vs. buying a rental property and which is a MUCH safer bet When to sell vs. hold a rental property (even if you have HUGE equity gains) And So Much More!

But with interest rates at decade-long highs, rents starting to stagnate, and home prices still in unaffordable territory, making cash flow, or breaking even for that matter, has become challenging. And while the “golden age” of cash flow real estate investing might be over, there are still numerous ways to bring in more passive income on properties you already own. We’re back for another Seeing Greene, where your favorite investor, broker, and “definitely not a loan expert,” David Greene, is back to answer YOUR real estate investing questions. This time around, we’ve got some serious questions about which rental properties are worth buying, how to get around zoning headaches, whether building an ADU is worth the money, and whether or not now is the right time to sell a high-equity property. David also touches on the EASIEST way to increase your cash flow in 2023 and the investing method that EVERY investor should focus on. Want to ask David a question? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene. Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can hop on a live Q&amp;A and get your question answered on the spot! In This Episode We Cover: How to “supercharge” your real estate cash flow by looking for money in places most investors avoid Zoning requirements and how to get around them by building ADUs or making some simple rental property tweaks Investing out of state and whether selling your primary residence to buy rentals is ever worth it How to start and structure a real estate partnership (and why David invests solo) Building an ADU vs. buying a rental property and which is a MUCH safer bet When to sell vs. hold a rental property (even if you have HUGE equity gains) And So Much More!

Rick is what we would call an “accidental investor.” He has been able to build a home-run housing portfolio by slowly, steadily investing whenever he had the chance. The best part? In the beginning, Rick had no idea that what he was doing was real estate investing. He was stunned when he bought his first home, which ended up paying for itself entirely. Fast forward a couple of decades, and Rick is sitting pretty with $285,000/year in passive income, a $3,000,000 portfolio, and the financial freedom most Americans won’t achieve until their 60s. So how did a barber, growing up in an impoverished household, go from making $12 a haircut to pulling in over $200,000 per year in pure cash flow? It’s simple: buy right, buy consistently, and trust your gut. Rick has done flips with car-sized holes in the roof, gone over budget and timeline, and made up his own comps, but at the end of the day, all the deals he’s done have led to him holding this massive real estate portfolio. And while he’s nothing short of an investing genius, his process for evaluating and doing deals is NOT complex. You don’t need a degree, a large inheritance, or any experience to repeat Rick’s system. If you’re trying to build wealth in the background, leave a legacy for your kids, grandkids, great-grandkids, and everyone else down the line while focusing on doing what you love, tune into this episode.

We aren’t talking about tackling a duplex or triplex; we’re talking about sixteen, eight, or ten-unit apartment buildings that could help you replace your W2 income. And while these deals may seem too big to take down for a rookie real estate investor, they’re much easier to get done IF you know what to do. But you’ll want to follow Lee Yoder's advice, who left his job and took a hefty pay cut to start investing in real estate. As a corporate physical therapist, Lee knew that time was passing him by. The one thing he could do to ensure a life of financial freedom and time with his growing family? Multifamily real estate investing! He made the risky decision to switch gears, leaving the corporate world and thirty percent of his income behind to make the jump. Thanks to smart saving and spending, Lee was in a position where he could dedicate large chunks of his time to flipping houses and later investing in passive-income-generating real estate. The best part about Lee’s story is that he did all of this on a middle-class income, without a ton of cash, using tools that almost every investor has available to them. If you want to know how he did it, what steps helped him skyrocket his portfolio, and how you can repeat his system, stick around!  In This Episode We Cover: When to go full-time into real estate and saying goodbye to a steady paycheck  House flipping and buying under-market homes at online auctions  The “passive income” fallacy and why real estate investing ISN’T what you think Living below your means and why spending less allows you to take bigger risks  Using real estate meetups to find partners, mentors, and deals in your area  The rental property “scrapyard” that most investors overlook when buying multifamily Buying in the multifamily “sweet spot” that new investors and big syndicators won’t venture into  And So Much More!

But you’ll want to follow Lee Yoder's advice, who left his job and took a hefty pay cut to start investing in real estate. As a corporate physical therapist, Lee knew that time was passing him by. The one thing he could do to ensure a life of financial freedom and time with his growing family? Multifamily real estate investing! He made the risky decision to switch gears, leaving the corporate world and thirty percent of his income behind to make the jump. Thanks to smart saving and spending, Lee was in a position where he could dedicate large chunks of his time to flipping houses and later investing in passive-income-generating real estate. The best part about Lee’s story is that he did all of this on a middle-class income, without a ton of cash, using tools that almost every investor has available to them. If you want to know how he did it, what steps helped him skyrocket his portfolio, and how you can repeat his system, stick around!  In This Episode We Cover: When to go full-time into real estate and saying goodbye to a steady paycheck  House flipping and buying under-market homes at online auctions  The “passive income” fallacy and why real estate investing ISN’T what you think Living below your means and why spending less allows you to take bigger risks  Using real estate meetups to find partners, mentors, and deals in your area  The rental property “scrapyard” that most investors overlook when buying multifamily Buying in the multifamily “sweet spot” that new investors and big syndicators won’t venture into  And So Much More!

With new financing rules and regulations, the “Buy, Rehab, Rent, Refinance, Repeat” strategy could be coming to a close for rookie real estate investors. This is a sensitive subject for most investing experts, as the BRRRR method was almost foolproof from 2010 to 2020. ANYBODY could find a house needing renovations, make some needed repairs, and turn it into a cash cow by refinancing out of their original loan. But now, the tide has started to turn, cash flow has been erased thanks to high mortgage rates, and finding a home for sale isn’t as easy as it always was. For investors who relied on the BRRRR method, this could be seen as the end of a wildly profitable era. But for expert investors like David Greene, Henry Washington, and Rob Abasolo this is just the beginning of a new type of BRRRR that could pay off handsomely but has much more lethal side effects. In this episode, we’ll get into exactly what the BRRRR strategy is, how investors use it to recycle their down payments, and what changes have caused it to go out of style. Our expert hosts will also describe what you MUST do to make your BRRRR investment work in 2023 and why simply buying a fixer-upper is NOT a worthwhile strategy. So stick around if you don’t want to get burnt on your next BRRRR!  In This Episode We Cover: The BRRRR method explained and why it’s such a profitable rental property strategy  What changed in the BRRRR method and why 2023 will be MUCH more challenging  Seasoning period requirements and how long you’ll have to wait before refinancing  BRRRR red flags and what to do to protect yourself from buying a bad deal The 1% rule and whether or not it’s still worth chasing in 2023  Expert ways to get around BRRRR waiting periods and high-interest rates  And So Much More!

Or, how do you escape the rent cycle and get into real estate investing? Should you buy your first rental before a primary residence?

Finally, David talks about growing your financial foundation and how to systematize your business, so you AREN’T working sixteen-hour days. All that and more, coming up! Want to ask David a question? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene.

If you ever had Josh Janus drop off food at your house, you may have been in the middle of him getting a deal done. That's right; between picking up and delivering food, Josh was cold-calling sellers, sourcing as many off-market real estate deals as possible. This type of serial side hustling led Josh to acquire $1,500,000 in real estate at age twenty-two, making $50,000 per month and building a business most entrepreneurs could only dream of. From a young age, Josh was already the king of multiple income streams. He was making duct tape wallets on the bus, flipping shoes online, and doing whatever he could to save more money. When he found BiggerPockets, he realized that real estate was the way to propel his dollars even further, allowing him to have money work for him instead of the other way around. So, Josh set out building a "hybrid wholesaling" model. He would contact off-market sellers, send their information to an agent, and get paid for his side of the deal. Once Josh got his real estate license, he started hustling even harder, selling $17,000,000 of real estate as an agent, making more in a month than many Americans make in a year. So what was Josh's quick key to success? How did he do all this in his early twenties without any experience? And how can you repeat the same system to skyrocket your wealth? Stick around; Josh will tell you how to do it too!  In This Episode We Cover: The "hybrid wholesale" model Josh uses to make serious commissions on off-market deals Side hustles, alternative income streams, and how to make more money in your free time Cold calling tips and getting your first off-market deal under contract (even with NO experience) How to use the BiggerPockets forums to get more deals, network with more investors, and build wealth  Mistakes you should avoid when hunting for your own off-market real estate deals Josh's nearly perfect BRRRR and the right way to do a deal that needs a renovation/rehab And So Much More!

You wouldn’t believe it at first. How could someone like Anne Curry go from making five dollars per hour to bringing in five figures’ worth of rent checks every month? While it didn’t happen overnight, Anne’s story is one that’s repeatable by almost everyone, no matter where you’re starting financially, how much education you have, or your background. Anne was never destined to be rich. She grew up in a household of non-profit workers, teachers, and those that expected to give more than they got. So when Anne married her husband, a social worker, she knew their chance of owning a home, let alone several, was slim to none. But, her fire for financial freedom and generational wealth never stopped burning, and as soon as she could purchase her first property, she made the jump that changed the course of her life. Now, as an affordable housing landlord with hundreds of units, Anne is on a mission to not only build wealth but help others follow her same path. She went from having very little money to an astonishingly large real estate portfolio simply by asking questions, offering help, and having a tenacious attitude to build up others, not just her bank account. She explains how ANY landlord can get into affordable housing, the massive benefits that this type of investing offers, and the common myths most people get wrong about section 8 and guaranteed rent.  In This Episode We Cover: Affordable housing myths and why most landlords are wrong about section 8 tenants How to find affordable housing deals and the HUGE grants local governments offer Scaling into multifamily and how to connect with those that have affordable housing deals Finding a mentor, asking questions, and why you MUST be willing to learn before you invest The new BRRRR method that’ll let you level up your wealth while owning your home Types of affordable housing and who to talk to if you want to convert your rental to section 8 housing And So Much More!

If you didn’t already know, you could be sitting on the perfect funding source found right under your own feet. But with today’s mortgage rates still double what they were last year, is taking out any of your equity a mistake, or could this be the opportunity of a lifetime to scoop up some sweet real estate deals at a stellar price? We’ve got our expert investor, lender, broker, and ship-metaphor-making host, David Greene, to give you his wealth-building secrets. Welcome back to another Seeing Greene, where we take questions live from BiggerPockets listeners on how you can retire early with real estate, build a business you love, and create generational wealth. This time, we’ve got questions on how to use home equity to buy more property, then we debate cash flow vs. appreciation and which is a better bang for your buck. We’ll also compare commercial vs. residential real estate and explain how these two seemingly similar assets operate VERY differently. And finally, David gives his favorite news sources on where to learn about the economy, the housing market, inflation, and every other variable that’ll help you make intelligent investing decisions! Want to ask David a question? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene. Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can hop on a live Q&amp;A and get your question answered on the spot!  In This Episode We Cover:   Refinancing vs. selling and what to do with high equity but high mortgage rates    Appreciation vs. cash flow and why bad neighborhoods are NOT for rental property investing   Residential vs. commercial real estate and why it gets tricky when funding bigger deals   Bitcoin as an alternative to cash and why the rich are still investing in a downturn    Portfolio architecture and how to buy rentals that build wealth (not just cash flow)   Where to learn about economic trends, data, and the housing market     Paying off debt vs. investing in real estate (and which to do first)   And So Much More!

That takes some SERIOUS drive. But after talking to Jake Radawick, the whole story makes much more sense. Within three years, Jake built a rental property portfolio that brings in over $200,000 a year in rent and provides Jakes with a full-time salary’s worth of passive income. But Jake wouldn’t have done any of it if it weren’t for his family—specifically his brother. Jake’s older brother has been his “why” for as long as he can remember. He broke through barriers and was able to achieve what most thought impossible of someone with autism. This gave Jake the confidence to go after goals that others told him weren’t achievable. And now, after three years, a lot of work, and some serious goals, Jake has a real estate portfolio that would have taken most investors decades to build. But it didn’t come without its struggles. From financing blunders to pipes bursting and flooded basements, this episode will open you up to the realities of building a sizable rental portfolio. But, if you’re willing to take risks like Jake, pivot when possible, and build a team of investing experts, you too could replace your W2 income with real estate profits in just a few years!  In This Episode We Cover: How to build a sizable real estate portfolio in three years or less Knowing your “why” behind investing and why you NEED one to be successful How to save up for a down payment and why side jobs are a MUST when building wealth Live-in BRRRRs and capitalizing on equity to build your portfolio even faster  Investing out of state and why balancing cash flow with appreciation is a must The “snowball” method that Jake used to buy properties faster than most investors What to do when no one will finance your loan and why you should always have a great relationship with your banker And So Much More!

It requires very little money down, no experience in investing, and can be used over and over and over again to build millions of dollars in real estate wealth. The strategy? House hacking! Real estate millionaires agree that this strategy is the BEST way to get started investing and can help launch you to the next level of financial freedom. You DON’T need a ton of time or money to house hack, and doing so could set you up for life. And if you think our empire-building hosts, David Greene, Henry Washington, and Rob Abasolo, aren’t spitting facts, think again. All three of these investors started house hacking and credit it as the greatest move they made to build wealth. But how does house hacking work, and if it’s such a smart move to make, why isn’t everyone doing it? In essence, house hacking allows you to monetize your living space. So, you get paid to have a mortgage instead of paying a mortgage. This could mean renting out your spare bedrooms, Airbnb-ing your mother-in-law suite, or buying a duplex and renting out the other side. And during a time when mortgage rates are higher than many of us have seen before and housing affordability is at an all-time low, house hacking can become your savior of savings, helping you keep more money every month. This compounded savings allows you to buy even more real estate, build your dream portfolio faster, and retire earlier than you thought. So, if you’re ready to invest in real estate, don’t sleep on house hacking!  In This Episode We Cover: House hacking explained and why it’s the EASIEST real estate investing strategy of 2023 Investing in real estate with no and low money down and why house hacking is the perfect starter option The different ways to house hack, from buying a duplex to renting out rooms How to find and analyze your house hack to ensure it’s paying for itself The best housing markets for house hacking and why you DON’T need to cash flow The house hack stack and the secret to building a multi-million dollar portfolio over just a few years And So Much More!

Do you need a rental property LLC for every property, or can you put multiple in one? And how do you create cash flow when housing prices are so high?

How to Make $200K+ on ONE Deal w/Janice Stitzer</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/743-better-than-brrrr-how-to-make-200k-on-one-deal-w-janice-stitzer--75656325</link><description><![CDATA[The BRRRR method is one of the most celebrated, highly-effective real estate investing strategies the world has ever known. Never heard of it? BRRRR stands for “Buy, Rehab, Rent, Refinance, Repeat” and is a simple framework to allow any real estate investor, no matter their skill level, to get into real estate investing for no money at the end of the deal. This down payment recycling system allows you to use the same amount of cash to build a real estate portfolio that’ll expand to infinity. And for a while, the BRRRR method was yet to be bested—until now. Janice Stitzer may have cracked the code. As a house-hacking California native, Janice was pushed out of the golden state right before the last crash when housing prices were high, cash flow was low, and traffic was at a standstill. She and her husband decided to boost their quality of life by relocating to Colorado, where they started a construction company and a BRRRR-ing empire. Then in 2008, when lending screeched to a halt, her BRRRRs died down. But some years later, a new idea hatched—the BRRRR 2.0. Using this simple strategy, Janice got a brand new short-term rental that cash flows like crazy, all while gaining $200K in equity before her first guest checked in. This repeatable system can be used by almost anyone and doesn’t require much experience. With just five properties, this “BRRRR 2.0” investing style could make you a millionaire. But you won’t know how it works if you don’t tune in! So, stick around!

Never heard of it? BRRRR stands for “Buy, Rehab, Rent, Refinance, Repeat” and is a simple framework to allow any real estate investor, no matter their skill level, to get into real estate investing for no money at the end of the deal. This down payment recycling system allows you to use the same amount of cash to build a real estate portfolio that’ll expand to infinity. And for a while, the BRRRR method was yet to be bested—until now. Janice Stitzer may have cracked the code. As a house-hacking California native, Janice was pushed out of the golden state right before the last crash when housing prices were high, cash flow was low, and traffic was at a standstill.

Whether you want to replace your nine-to-five income, retire your spouse or family members, spend more time with your loved ones, or just have enough money to travel the world, reaching financial independence is truly the American dream. And the wisest, most stable way to find financial freedom? Real estate investing! For generations, rental property investing has been the foundation of many millionaires’ portfolios, and you can repeat their path with four simple steps. To give you the complete rundown on the four steps to financial freedom, we’ve got Dave Meyer, VP of Data and Analytics and host of On the Market, on the show. Dave embodies the financially-free life most people dream of. He lives abroad, chooses to work, and eats copious amounts of sandwiches every day. But what most people don’t see is the decade of hard work and dedication that Dave put in to get up to this point.  Dave will explain exactly how to calculate the passive income you need to find financial freedom, where to start investing in real estate, how to analyze a real estate deal from scratch, and the one tool that EVERY investor can use to build a rental property portfolio faster. If you want to become a real estate pro in 2023, sign up for BiggerPockets Pro and use code “ANALYSIS20” for a special discount.  In This Episode We Cover How to achieve financial freedom through real estate in 2023  Calculating your FI number and setting the RIGHT type of real estate goals Picking your real estate market and metrics you MUST use when researching  Finding real estate deals and the LAPS funnel professional investors use to find perfect properties How to analyze a real estate deal in minutes using the BiggerPockets rental property calculator  Cash flow vs. appreciation and which you should pick when deciding on your investment strategy  And So Much More!

For the past decade and a half, landlords got used to buying standard homes that made a killing in cash flow. Combine that with exponentially appreciating home prices, and anyone who purchased a property in the past ten years looks like an investing oracle. But now, the tide is starting to turn, and rookie real estate investors are struggling to find any house in almost any market that can cash flow. So what happened, and why has the nation’s cash-flowing real estate suddenly disappeared?  Welcome back to another Seeing Greene, where your “don’t just go for cash flow” host, David Greene, is back to drop some real estate knowledge for ANY level of investor. In this episode, we get into why it’s so challenging to find real estate deals that cash flow in 2023, when to invest in an appreciation vs. cash flow market, and whether or not to sell a property that isn’t profitable. Then, we switch gears and touch on how to vet a private lender you met online and whether or not an out-of-state rental rehab project is too risky for a brand-new real estate investor.  Want to ask David a question? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene. Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can hop on a live Q&amp;A and get your question answered on the spot! In This Episode We Cover: The “Golden Age” of cash flow and why it might finally be over in 2023 How to pivot when you can’t find a “deal” in today’s housing market Cash flow vs. appreciation markets and which makes for a better long-term bet What to do when your rental property isn’t profitable and how to know it’s worth selling Vetting private money lenders and why you should NEVER send money to one Out-of-state renovations and rehabs and why rookie real estate investors should stay clear of them Delayed gratification and why it’s the true path to building wealth  And So Much More!

With bank runs becoming contagious, Americans in fear of economic turmoil, and a recession now closer on the horizon, assets like real estate could be affected in ways that most everyday Americans don’t realize. But, to understand what could happen to home prices and the US economy, we’ll need to explain the entire situation. Back on as expert guests, J Scott, multi-decade investor, and Scott Trench, CEO of BiggerPockets, are here to share their takes on the SVB’s meltdown. More importantly, they explain the events leading up to this bank collapse, how the pandemic created fuel for this future fire, and whether SVB’s collapse could cause a chain reaction that leads to more bank failures, harder economic times, and, surprisingly, higher mortgage rates.  J and Scott debate whether or not more small banks are at risk, what could happen to HELOCs (home equity lines of credit), mortgages, and other financing options, and whether or not real estate will go down with the ship as our economic situation goes from bad to worse. And, if you’ve been saving up for your next investment property, stick around as J and Scott walk through how real estate investors should be using their money in troubling times like today. In This Episode We Cover: SVB’s collapse explained and how it could drag us into a deeper recession  The effects on real estate and whether or not prices will drop as a result Mortgage rate predictions and the Fed’s shaky decision to raise or halt rates  HELOCs (home equity lines of credit), mortgages, and other property financing options that could be in danger  Whether or not we’re in a recession, and if we aren’t, when the recession could hit Investing in real estate in 2023 and the moves you MUST make to protect your investment  And So Much More!

Like many investors after the 2008 crash, Eric was left flat broke, with an unbelievably high adjustable mortgage rate, hundreds of thousands in credit card debt, and just a few hundred dollars to his name. His “bed,” a pile of clothes in an empty apartment, was the one thing that could comfort him while digging himself out of the housing market hole he fell into. Now, Eric’s life looks a little different. With dozens of cash-flowing rental units, even Eric questions how he got here. His story includes selling snakes, dealing drugs, storage wars, terrible real estate deals, and bad debt, but at the end of it, thanks to making the perfect pivot, he came out on top. He made almost every real estate investing mistake in the book, from buying a property he knew nothing about to purchasing fifteen rental properties in one month (don’t do this) and taking risks that were never worth the reward. But Eric isn’t here to cry over spilled milk. Instead, he’s here to share EXACTLY how he made it out of a horrible situation and turned his life around to build wealth, have time freedom, and live without worrying. You might be feeling a bit like Eric did, and if you want to know the mistakes you should avoid and the moves you should make to get in a better position, tune into today’s episode! In This Episode We Cover: How to build wealth when starting from ZERO (or in SERIOUS credit card debt) Storage wars and making thousands flipping items found at auctions The HUGE cash flow of sober living facilities and why they beat regular rental properties Becoming a real estate agent and why you HAVE to go all in if you want to make more money Purchasing portfolios and the big mistake Eric made that cost him hundreds of thousands Property inspections and why you NEVER use a residential inspector on a commercial property And So Much More!

The “DIY management” style works for most real estate investors until they build a significant stack of multifamily properties. Then, the toilet calls, tenant complaints, and late rent checks get a little exhausting when you’re now taking care of dozens of tenants, not just two or three. So, what’s the right way to scale with multifamily real estate without losing your hair? We’ve brought back multifamily investing experts Andrew Cushman and Matt Faircloth to explain how new multifamily investors can start to scale by making some strategic hires. Both of these battle-tested investing experts have dealt with their fair share of flaky property managers, late maintenance technicians, and asset managers who care more about a paycheck than building a profitable portfolio. They know exactly what does (and doesn’t) make a good hire and how you can start scaling quicker by outsourcing work you once thought crucial for an owner to do. Andrew and Matt break down the difference between a property manager and an asset manager and explain why these roles are commonly confused. They also hit on how essential operations are at a time when cap rates are starting to expand and many buyers have fled the market. Finally, they’ll walk through the exact skills you should be looking for in an asset manager, property manager, leasing agent, and maintenance supervisor, so you can focus on growing your portfolio, NOT handling the day-to-day hiccups.  In This Episode We Cover: Asset management vs. property management and how these two separate roles create investing synergy  The changing multifamily market and how “buying a deal” isn’t as easy as it was before What small multifamily investors can do NOW to build the road to a bigger portfolio  Hiring a property manager and the twenty-seven questions you MUST ask them before you bring them into your team  Attitude over skills and how to find the rockstars that want to build your real estate portfolio Incentivizing success and making sure your workers are paid for increasing value and cash flow  And So Much More!

Without the free-flowing deal flow of the past decade, real estate investors need to try more intelligent strategies to snag properties that can help them reach financial freedom. To help them hit their goals, expert investors David Greene and Rob Abasolo have been coaching a small group of real estate mentees on their journey to build a robust property portfolio. Over the past three episodes, we’ve seen them build their buy boxes, decide on markets, formulate offers, and level up their investor skills. At the end of this ninety-day journey, our mentees have made some profound revelations. We start with Philip, who’s been struggling to find a worthwhile campground to get under contract. He’s been able to wrangle in a deal, but it comes with “hairy” circumstances that could allow him more bargaining power when negotiating with the seller. Next, Wendy is back on her hunt for a house hack. After viewing potential properties in the Las Vegas area, she’s had to pivot her investing strategy to tackle something that comes with lower costs. And finally, Danny joins us to talk about two “offensive” offers he made and the “pickle jar” method that investors should know about before negotiating with a seller. All of the mentees have made MASSIVE strides in their real estate investing journeys, but what comes next is entirely up to them. Stick around to hear how they got ahead of the game, what made the most significant difference in their property searches, and how they’re gearing up to tackle even bigger deals throughout 2023! In This Episode We Cover: Negotiating with a seller and what to do when hidden costs pop up during your due diligence Networking with other investors and the MASSIVE benefit that comes with it House hacking, medium-term rentals, and what to do when struggling to find cash flow Pivoting your rental property strategy and why you should NEVER make an offer unless the numbers make sense Making “offensive” offers and why lowballing isn’t always such a bad thing Building your “buy box” and keeping it flexible enough, so you’re still able to get properties under contract Analysis paralysis, outsourcing, and what will stop you from making it in real estate And So Much More!

Don’t believe us? Maybe you’ll be more convinced by Dave Meyer, VP of Data and Analytics at BiggerPockets and real estate investor who got his start right after the 2008 housing market crash. For a fresh-out-of-college Dave, this was one of the scariest purchases he could have ever made. Right off of the Great Recession, no one knew which way the housing market would head, but because Dave took an educated, data-backed risk, he’s been rewarded handsomely with passive income. And if you’re like most new real estate investors, you want to find financial freedom and spend more time doing what you love while building wealth in the background. Now, with skittish sellers and high mortgage rates scaring away many would-be-homebuyers, you can pick up real estate deals that could propel your wealth forward for years to come. And in this webinar, Dave will show you EXACTLY how to find, analyze, and finance your real estate deals. He’ll also dive deep into the data behind today’s housing market and prove why now may be one of the BEST times to buy real estate in years. Now is YOUR time to start building wealth.

He’s talked to investing moguls, sports icons, mindset authorities, and everyone in between. Through doing this, he’s become an expert on building the mental landscape that makes you successful, accountable, and ready to make meaningful action in the world. He knows what it takes to build wealth, get rich, and start eight-figure businesses. And he also understands why you may not be ready to achieve your wildest dreams. Lewis Howes knows most people aren’t ready to get rich. It’s not because they aren’t smart or savvy enough at investing. It’s because there’s something missing deep down—something they didn’t even know about. And Lewis has real-world experience with this struggle. He was flat broke only fifteen years ago, sleeping on his sister’s couch, watching his dreams of becoming a professional athlete slip away. He even got caught by his first mentor stealing food after a speaking event when he didn’t have enough money to eat. Fast forward to today, and Lewis is a best-selling author, owner of a multi-million dollar business, and gets paid more in an hour than most Americans make in a year. So what changed? What steps did Lewis take to accomplish this unbelievable feat, and what can YOU do to repeat the same system that led Lewis to greatness? All that (and more) in this episode!  In This Episode We Cover: How Lewis Howes went from flat broke to multi-millionaire  Why you’re NOT READY to get rich (and what you can do to change that) The importance of getting a coach and why tenaciously leveling up your skills is crucial to success Breaking out of rock bottom and how to build wealth when starting from zero The three steps to greatness that will help you achieve any dream  The one skill Lewis says you MUST have in today’s modern world  Pushing past fear and how judgment stops so many from fulfilling their destiny  And So Much More!

That’s right, we’ve crammed in all the most important news for real estate investors, including AI realtors, dangerous fast food options, and why buyers and sellers keep pushing down hard on both pedals. David Greene and Dave Meyer will go down the real estate rabbit hole, discussing the most important headlines affecting today’s housing market. Welcome back to BiggerNews, where we touch on the facts, data, and everything else affecting real estate investing. This time, the Dave duo hits on why mortgage rates shot down earlier this year and what’s causing them to rise again, plus what this will do to buyers and sellers who are waiting to get into the market. Then, we’ll hear how the BRRRR method could be in danger as new mortgage rules make a cash-out refinance far harder than before. Ever thought, “We need more artificially conscious investors.” If so, you’re in luck! We’ll touch on how ChatGPT could allow an influx of sub-par investors to enter the market. And if you’ve been waiting for a revival of Craigslist, stick around. New rules that Meta (Facebook) announced recently may deal a blow to real estate sellers on the popular platform. Finally, David and Dave will give their take on Biden’s new “Renters Bill of Rights,” which could create more protections for renters but with the side effect of rent control for landlords. All these stories could have SERIOUS impacts on the housing market. Whether you’re an investor, realtor, renter, or homeowner, this is news you need to know about! In This Episode We Cover: Mortgage rate updates and what’s causing the interest rate volatility affecting investors New cash-out refinance rules that could make the BRRRR method even more challenging  Why Meta is cutting support for real estate sellers (and what this means for off-market investors) The Biden Administration’s new renter bill that could create housing markets dead zones for investing  Chat GPT’s opportunity for investors and how it could harm those that are running the best real estate businesses  And So Much More!

If you don’t, you could end up in the same situation as David Pere, who just finished off a four-year lawsuit after a seller tried to get rid of a deal that wasn’t even worth the dough. But David wasn’t a rookie when this happened. This was David’s third deal after having multiple units under his belt. And even though he was able to walk away from the lawsuit, the downsides, years of stress, and wasted opportunity is what he wants to make sure you DON’T repeat.  This deal didn’t look fishy at the start, but as soon as closing came, difficulties started to crawl out of every nook and cranny of this property. Made-up leases? David’s got them! Weirdly intertwined relationships between sellers and property managers? It’s there too! Repairs that never got made? You bet! And this isn’t even the worst of the deal gone wrong. The story gets even more unbelievable, fraudulent, and downright confusing as David spills the tea. But this isn’t a pity party. All while this lawsuit was happening, David has been scaling his rental property portfolio, reaching financial freedom, and still doing the best he could to build wealth. This story is NOT meant to scare you off from investing but to show you that any deal, no matter how bad it gets, can be a learning lesson that allows you to reach your goals even faster!   In This Episode We Cover: The “more doors” trap and why scaling bigger isn’t always the best move Lease options explained and why a seller would risk signing one  Mixed use real estate and the multiple streams of income that come from one property  Why you should ALWAYS get your team into a deal before you sign the contract  Red flags David missed that you should ALWAYS look out for when buying a new property Taking a seller to court and what to do if you find out there’s fraud in your deal  Why savvy buyers (and sellers) always document EVERYTHING said in a negotiation  And So Much More!

For the past few months, most real estate investors have assumed that high interest rates and low inventory would stop first-time homebuyers from making offers on houses. But, most of us assumed wrong. At the start of this year, demand started picking back up, causing investors to pivot to get offers in quickly. So, if you’ve been waiting to buy your first or next deal, now may be the perfect time to start analyzing properties, sending in offers, and getting your property portfolio started. But you can’t do it without an elite agent! We brought in three of the nation’s top agents to tell us what’s happening in their markets, what types of deals they’re doing, and how you can make the most off your next purchase. We first welcome back Dahlia Khalaf from ASN Realty in Tulsa, Oklahoma. She’s recently helped a client get into a “double dip deal” that resulted in tens of thousands in profit on a deal that almost any beginner investor could do. But they had to get creative to find it! Next, we bring back Rob Chevez from Washington, D.C., who’s worked out an interestingly debt-ridden real estate deal to help his investor client pull in some SERIOUS cash flow from short-term renting. And lastly, who could forget about our own David Greene? He’s California’s favorite real estate agent, and his team has been using the house hacking strategy to help first-time homebuyers subsidize a SIGNIFICANT portion of their mortgage. Even better? This deal required no money down and allowed his clients to lock in a low mortgage rate and a low cost of living while in one of America’s most expensive cities, San Diego. If you want a home run deal like any of the ones discussed on today’s show, head to BiggerPockets’ Agent Finder to find an elite investor-friendly agent in your area.  In This Episode We Cover Why the housing market is heating up as homebuyers come back with higher demand  Wholetail real estate deals and how to flip a property without ANY renovation costs  How to find off-market deals and targeting homes that have been sitting on the market  Home liens and using them to find sellers who are willing to give a discount on their properties  Whether or not cash flow is still possible in 2023 and which strategies will bring in the highest rents House hacking and using this strategy to lower your cost of living significantly  Rate buydowns, seller credits, and more ways to come to closing with less money  And So Much More!

And for Brent Daniels, it was the worst time of his life. Before the crash, he was riding high, making six figures, living in a big house with a new car, and building a real estate brokerage with eighty employees. Then, the market started to tank, and so did Brent’s revenue. He had to let go of all eighty workers, watch his car get repossessed, and witness his wife leaving him. But that wasn’t all. The ten-year office lease for his brokerage was still due, and the owners shackled him with seven hundred thousand dollars of debt. Brent hit rock bottom as his reputation lay ruined, forced to stay with friends to survive. He slowly got back into real estate, making a few hundred dollars here and there. But then, one day, Brent stumbled upon an assignment fee. He watched one of his friends walk away with a five-figure check simply for flipping a contract to an investor. Thus, the wholesaling fire was sparked, and Brent gave up his dreams of becoming a top agent or real estate investor. He hit the phones, finding as many motivated sellers as possible. From there, Brent shares how he built a business that does over a million dollars a year with just four team members, why he doesn’t invest heavily in real estate, and the exact script he uses to get hefty wholesale fees from motivated sellers. Now, with a net worth of over eight million dollars, Brent has proven that no comeback is impossible and that the best foundation for success is rock bottom. In This Episode We Cover: Overleveraging and Brent’s mistakes that made him lose everything in the last crash The toxic “supreme ego” that will push you to take risks that are never worth it Paying off six figures in debt and how to rebuild when starting from below zero  The secret to talking to motivated sellers and the four pillars of negotiation in a deal Cold calling tips and what you should NEVER say to a seller  How to scale a LEAN business that operates almost entirely without you  A glimpse into an alternate universe where Henry Washington is David Greene’s wife  And So Much More!

Think of cities like New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, and Seattle. Just a few years ago, these bustling metros were packed to the brim with tech workers, all of which contributed to housing shortages and sky-high home prices. Now, with remote work the new norm, these big cities are seeing their populations slowly start to siphon out to more affordable housing markets in America. As an investor, you may ask yourself, “where are the most people (and money) headed?” In this episode, Dave Meyer and David Greene will answer this exact question. But, it isn’t as easy as solely looking at population growth. Dave and David go deep into the data to see where businesses, tech jobs, and high salaries are moving so you can make the best bet for future equity plays. And even though it seems like Miami, Austin, and other booming markets have already priced out most investors, recent price drops could be a short-term loss that leads to your long-term gain. But even if you know where Americans are migrating, you’ll still need to know the “why” so you can find future markets fitting these criteria. Dave and David touch on how work from home changed the housing market, why the pandemic split the nation into affordable and unaffordable housing markets, and how something as simple as a warm day could heavily impact where the best investing opportunity is. So stick around if you’re planning on buying, investing, selling, or moving in 2023! In This Episode We Cover: The ten real estate markets that are seeing massive migration even in 2023  The “great reshuffling” and how a nomadic work culture changed America’s housing landscape Work from home’s effect on migration, high-paying jobs, and home prices  How political stances and low/no income tax enticed many Americans to leave their home states The housing markets seeing the BIGGEST population drops and where not to invest  Where businesses are moving, and the sneaky tax incentives states use to entice corporations  Why short-term price drops DO NOT predict the future of the housing market  And So Much More!

You can do it with less than ten properties. Sounds insane, right? If so, tune in to hear Jesse Vasquez’s story as he breaks down exactly how he built a seven-figure income stream with fewer rental properties than most medium-sized landlords. He even gives an example of how just two of his rental properties are cash-flowing enough to replace a six-figure salary. So what is he doing differently from the rest? After escaping the “golden handcuffs” of a six-figure healthcare sales job, Jesse knew he couldn’t ever return to the corporate work environment again. He loved the paycheck but was paralyzed by the work and needed an escape that could help him build wealth without sucking his soul. After sparking up a conversation with a traveling nurse, he realized there was an unfilled niche in the medium-term rental space, one that traveling professionals would pay handsomely for.

You can do it with less than ten properties. Sounds insane, right? If so, tune in to hear Jesse Vasquez’s story as he breaks down exactly how he built a seven-figure income stream with fewer rental properties than most medium-sized landlords. He even gives an example of how just two of his rental properties are cash-flowing enough to replace a six-figure salary. So what is he doing differently from the rest? After escaping the “golden handcuffs” of a six-figure healthcare sales job, Jesse knew he couldn’t ever return to the corporate work environment again. He loved the paycheck but was paralyzed by the work and needed an escape that could help him build wealth without sucking his soul. After sparking up a conversation with a traveling nurse, he realized there was an unfilled niche in the medium-term rental space, one that traveling professionals would pay handsomely for. From working in healthcare, Jesse has been able to pinpoint exactly what makes a high-cash flow medium-term rental, which amenities can dramatically increase your rent price, and how to make six figures in cash flow with just a few properties. This deep dive will give you EVERYTHING you need to know before you buy a medium-term rental, how to achieve a near-zero vacancy rate, and the most lucrative way to find tenants that will net you five times higher rent than a regular long-term tenant.

Unlike long-term traditional rental properties, short-term rental hosts can charge higher daily rates, allowing them to lock in far higher revenue. This revenue number grows exponentially the bigger, better, and more unique a property gets. So, a Spanish-style Scottsdale mansion will rent out for a LOT more than a traditional large home. And that’s exactly what we have on this episode of Seeing Greene; a Scottsdale, Arizona mansion bringing in over $300,000 per year! On this special edition of Seeing Greene, David Greene and Rob “Robuilt” Abasolo will give a Deal Deep Dive on their latest partnership property. This massive mansion in sunny Scottsdale was one of the most expensive properties Rob had ever bought, but with the help of David, they’ve been able to turn it into a cash cow, even as headaches pop up. David and Rob walk through the property cost, how they found it, the renovations they made, and how much they expect to bring in this year. They also share guest stories that’ll make you feel sympathy for any vacation rental host, the problem with pool heaters, and what to do when your guest pulls a Glock on your house cleaner. These are the stories most vacation rental hosts won’t tell you, so stick around if you want to hear all the cash-flowing details! In This Episode We Cover: Scottsdale real estate and why David and Rob picked this perfect vacation rental destination  The downside of buying dozens of properties and why one large purchase beats many small ones Finding an investor-friendly agent and why you NEED a rockstar in your real estate market How much David and Rob spent on furnishing, painting, and fixing this property David’s five-point matrix for a profitable rental property Guest horror stories and why you should ALWAYS keep your TV manual And So Much More!

But, when phrased and timed correctly, you’ll be able to lock down real estate deals at the perfect price, sometimes without the seller even knowing it. Unfortunately, most real estate investors make a MASSIVE mistake when negotiating. Too often, they ask for everything they want when making an offer, not knowing there are ways to get an even better price later on. Want to see how this sneaky style of negotiation works? Stick around! We’re back with our real estate mentees as they get one step closer to buying their next property and building their dream real estate portfolio. First, we chat with Philip, who lost out on the perfect deal but now knows a better way to get properties under contract. Then, Danny joins us as he stays on the hunt for a multimillion-dollar multifamily but is struggling to find reasonably priced properties in his area. Finally, Wendy is on as she debates which of her rentals have the best medium-term tenant potential. She also dives into a new market that could be perfect for her high-cash flow house hacking strategy. We also get deep into the mindset of these intermediate investors. We’ll talk about why it’s so hard to let go of a great deal, how to systematize your learning so you’re constantly leveling up your skills (even during a busy day), breaking through analysis paralysis, and why your limiting beliefs are often untrue. So if you want to tee up your next real estate deal like Philip, Danny, and Wendy, tune into this episode!  In This Episode We Cover Why you NEVER submit your final offer when trying to get a perfect property under contract Buying raw land and how to perform due diligence on an untraditional asset  Embracing the chaos and how to build your real estate portfolio with a jam-packed schedule  Why 2023 is the perfect market to write “offensive offers” on properties  Medium-term rental investing and which markets work best for it Analysis paralysis and how your mind tricks you into not succeeding  The ONE thing that most house hacking investors forget when looking for new deals  And So Much More!

Without it, you won’t get far, and the first fumble that comes your way may be your last. That’s why having a solid reason behind your real estate investing can keep you going while the rest give up. And this is precisely what Suni Rao’s success is built on as a former pro tennis player turned financial analyst and now ten-unit real estate investor. You may think you know her story already since she was a former pro, but you’d probably be wrong. Suni was raised in a household of domestic violence. As a child, she knew that if she only had enough money, she could escape and finally be free of the abuse. So when the opportunity came for her to play pro tennis at a young age, she took the chance without ever looking back. This dream continued until her early twenties, when she was physically forced to give up her goal of winning the world’s biggest tournaments. She took a hard pivot, eventually leading her to climb the corporate ladder, only to have some crushing feedback knock her off. However, none of this stopped Suni from building the life she wanted in the background. After one property came another, and another, and another. Now, with ten units to her name, she’s making massive strides toward financial freedom and is here to tell you exactly how you can do the same.  In This Episode We Cover  Financial insecurity and how to regain your freedom through real estate investing    House hacking and using it as a stepping stone to invest in bigger, better properties   Leaving the corporate ladder behind to build your own wealth without an employer   Sports lessons of resilience that any real estate investor can relate to   How to stop limiting beliefs and doubts from derailing your dreams   Why property class matters and how buying in better neighborhoods will make you more   How to “force appreciation” and gain massive equity on your properties   And So Much More!

You’ve been stuck at the same number of units, dealing with the same problems for far too long. But what can you do? At what point do you reach a limit to the number of rentals you can take on? Is there even a limit at all? For most investors, hitting a wall in your real estate portfolio can feel like the beginning of the end. For David Greene, this just shows that you need to scale a little smarter. And today, he’ll show you exactly how to do it. David, at one point, had a portfolio of over fifty single-family homes. As a result, he was constantly getting calls about evictions, maintenance issues, late payments, and the everyday landlord headaches. He realized that he was spending all his extra cash flow fixing the regularly sprouting problems, so he decided to pivot. Now, he has a cash-flowing, profitable, passive real estate portfolio with multiple types of rentals nationwide and far fewer headaches. Not only that, he’s leading a top real estate agent team, teaching his top agents the same skills in his newest book, SCALE: A Successful Agent’s Guide to Leveling Up Their Real Estate Business. In it, David teaches top agents how to leave the mundane headaches behind and start building a business. But this book isn’t just for agents. If you’re an investor, the same rules apply to you, and learning these skills can help you leverage time, money, and other workers to help you grow an even bigger business. Pre-Order SCALE now, and use code “SCALE724” to get a special discount and access to exclusive pre-order benefits.  In This Episode We Cover: A deep dive into David’s newest book, SKILL How David went from blue-collar worker to seven-figure business owner  The two pieces of any successful system (and the part EVERYONE screws up) Why finding your weakness is the key to unlocking wealth  Learning how to leverage time, money, and workers to build your business bigger The “three dimensions” of scaling and which one you MUST start putting into practice today Fish-cleaning vs. fish-catching and how to adapt your skills when building your real estate portfolio And So Much More!

Falling prices, rising mortgage rates, and an uncertain housing market have made buying rental properties riskier than at any other time in the past ten years. But, the flip side of this coin is that a lack of buyers and harsh buying conditions makes it easier than ever to pick up homes in grade-A areas, many of which could help you realize massive returns in the future. So, is now the time to buy? Welcome back to Seeing Greene, where expert investor, agent, broker, and author, David Greene, answers your recession-based real estate questions on the spot. We take questions from new investors struggling to find cash flow in today’s challenging market and long-term property owners who don’t know what to do with all their equity. We’ll also hit on the touchy subject of when to quit your job, when you have too much debt to invest, and the difference between a property manager and an asset manager (most people get this wrong!). Want to ask David a question? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene. Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can hop on a live Q&amp;A and get your question answered on the spot! In This Episode We Cover: Why cash flow is NOT the most important metric when buying in 2023 Using the recession to snag better deals on homes in appreciating areas  Selling vs. renting and what to do with a house that has heaps of equity  When to quit your W2 and whether or not doing so in a recession is too risky  Overleveraging yourself and why you may want to hold off on investing if you have high debt  Lease options and using them to buy properties from on-the-fence sellers  Asset management vs. property management and how these two titles differ  And So Much More!

The world of a real estate investor can seem glamorous. There are always so many properties, cash flow, retreats, speaking events, and jam-packed, money-making schedules that most nine-to-five workers would be envious of. However, what you’re seeing is the result, not the journey. What about the seven-day work weeks, the night shifts, the financial stress, the bad tenants, and the failures? This is what made David Greene what he is today. To most, David Greene is the epitome of an entrepreneur. He owns a multimillion-dollar real estate portfolio, multiple cash-flowing companies, and hosts the best real estate podcast ever (we’re not biased). But just fourteen years ago, this was far from his reality. David was waiting tables, working at restaurants, trying to become deputy sheriff, and had no real estate to speak of. He sacrificed almost every weekend to make more money so he one day could own his schedule. In this episode, you’ll hear precisely how David hustled for years to buy his first property, how his first tenant stole thousands from him, the long nights he spent working overtime to save up even more, and how eventually everything clicked, and he started building wealth at record speed. If you want an authentic look into the making of a real estate tycoon without the rose-colored hindsight, this is the episode to tune into. In This Episode We Cover: Investing during the great recession and why most investors wouldn’t touch real estate The worst first-rental property experience ever and why you NEED to screen your tenants Why every investor needs to respect money, not just try to make more of it Doing whatever you have to do to save up, invest, and build a brighter future for yourself  Building the BRRRR strategy and accidentally finding a way to recycle down payments Out-of-state investing and how to pivot when your market becomes too expensive Strengthening your financial foundation so you can invest wisely and work way less Rob and David’s Russian-Mexican Spanish and how to confuse everyone in Latin America And So Much More!

Rising interest rates, compressed cap rates, and new inventory about to hit the market is making commercial real estate, and multifamily more specifically, look as unattractive as ever to a real estate investor. But with so much money still thrown at multifamily investments, are everyday investors going to get caught up in all the hysteria? Or is this merely an overhyped crash that won’t come to fruition for years to come? Scott Trench, CEO of BiggerPockets and host of the BiggerPockets Money Podcast, has had suspicions about the multifamily space since mortgage rates began to spike. Now, he’s on the show to explain why a crash could happen, who it will affect, and what investors can do to prepare themselves. This is NOT a time to take on the high-stakes deals that were so prominent in 2020 and 2021. Scott gives his recommendations on what both passive and active investors can do to keep their wealth if and when a crash finally hits. But that’s not all! We wouldn’t be talking about multifamily without Andrew Cushman and Matt Faircloth, two large multifamily investors who have decades of experience in the space. Andrew and Matt take questions from two BiggerPockets mentees, Philip and Danny, a couple of California-based investors trying to scale their multifamily portfolios. If you want to get into multifamily the right way or dodge a lousy deal, stick around! In This Episode We Cover: The commercial real estate crash and bad news for high-interest rate investors Cap rate compression, rent stagnation, and red flags for the multifamily market  Recommendations for both active and passive multifamily investors How to vet a real estate syndication deal when raising private capital Scaling from small to large multifamily and why the jump is easier than you think Cash flow vs. appreciation and which is a better bet if valuations start to tank Balloon payments, adjustable-rate mortgages, and risky financing options putting new investors in a tough spot And So Much More!

For those who want to build bigger portfolios beyond just buying single-family rental properties, finding multifamily, development, or perfect medium-term rental deals can be a struggle. You have to be in the know and have a network full of agents, brokers, lenders, and other investors who can throw deals your way, so you don’t have to dig through the scraps that bigger investors (or investment firms) have left behind. This is a struggle that all three of our ninety-day mentees have faced since we spoke to them last. We’ll be getting updates on all their situations in today’s episode as David and Rob work to get them to their next investments as soon as possible. First, we talk to Philip, who’s still struggling to find adequate land for his future resort. He’s successfully made one offer but has yet to receive a counter.

Lastly, we talk to Danny, who’s struggling to connect the dots that will lead to his next property. As an introvert, finding contractors in the field has become challenging, although he has started to reach out to other investors he knows in his area. A common thread in this episode is that ALL our mentees are finding a pain point stopping them from reaching their next property. Of course, what they do next is entirely up to them, but you’ll hear case-by-case advice from David and Rob, which could also help you on your next deal! So if you’ve hit a roadblock on your path to real estate wealth, don’t give up—tune in!

For those who want to build bigger portfolios beyond just buying single-family rental properties, finding multifamily, development, or perfect medium-term rental deals can be a struggle. You have to be in the know and have a network full of agents, brokers, lenders, and other investors who can throw deals your way, so you don’t have to dig through the scraps that bigger investors (or investment firms) have left behind. This is a struggle that all three of our ninety-day mentees have faced since we spoke to them last. We’ll be getting updates on all their situations in today’s episode as David and Rob work to get them to their next investments as soon as possible. First, we talk to Philip, who’s still struggling to find adequate land for his future resort. He’s successfully made one offer but has yet to receive a counter.

Sell everything! Houses will be worth $1 next year! This is just like 2008!” Look at the track record of those who shill predictions like this. These are the same forecasters who have been predicting a crash will happen at some point over the last ten years. Now, with a whiff of fear in the air, mainstream real estate journalists will do anything they can to convince you we’re having a repeat of 2008. However, this is far from the truth. But how could we forecast the 2023 housing market without data? And where there’s data, there’s Dave Meyer, VP of Data and Analytics at BiggerPockets and host of the On the Market podcast. Dave and his team have recently released “The 2023 State of Real Estate Investing Report,” which gives all the housing market data you need to invest successfully in 2023. In it, Dave shares how the 2022 housing market flipped once the Fed raised rates, how supply and demand have been affected, and what we can expect for 2023. Dave will also go over the three investing strategies he feels are more appropriate for investing in 2023, including a completely passive way to invest, a cash flow and appreciation combo, and how buyers can take advantage of this market to get deals at a steep discount. While we can’t predict the future, we can give you our best insight into what you can do to build wealth in 2023. So turn off the mainstream fear forecasting and tune into real news designed to make you richer! In This Episode We Cover: Why 2023 is not a “normal” housing market and the details leading up to today’s state The “levers” that affect home prices and why 2023 is NOT the same as 2008 Seller’s vs. buyer’s markets and where prices are most expected to dip Homebuyer demand and how unaffordability has caused most buyers to sit on their hands Mortgage rate increases and how the Fed is using high rates to combat inflation The three strategies that work in today’s housing market and how to invest while others sit on the sidelines 2023 housing market predictions and when we could potentially see home prices bottom And So Much More!

For the average American worker, this can be a slow grind, saving a few hundred dollars a month, hoping to be financially free at sixty-five so they can finally enjoy retirement. The problem? You spent three or four decades at a job, waiting to do what you want. If you’re going to crack the code to financial freedom, retire early, and live and work on your terms, you might want to follow Greg Cullen’s strategy. Greg has been hustling since he was a teenager. He was bringing in a full-time salary at age sixteen after building a sign-spinning business with over a dozen workers. He always knew the key to success was finding smart ways to make more money. So, when Greg was offered a full-time salary, he turned it down for a sales job with no cap on commissions, allowing him to save money at a far faster rate, and reach financial freedom well before the age of thirty. But Greg didn’t need some colossal empire of cash-flowing rentals. Instead, he’s financially free with only ten units, all of which he bought in under a decade. So how did someone like Greg, without real estate experience, scale his income up so fast? In this episode, you’ll learn what Greg did to purchase properties at lightning speed, the Chick-fil-A rule of real estate you should adopt, and how failing is the only successful way to hit financial freedom early. In This Episode We Cover: Why choosing a commission-based job, with uncapped earnings, beats a salary almost always Sign spinning and creative ways Greg made big money as a teenager The Chick-fil-A real estate rule that all investors should follow when picking a rental property market Common investing hurdles and how to deal with massive burnout when trying to make more money The laws of power that every entrepreneur, investor, or employee must know to level up What to do when real estate partnerships go wrong and turning a stressful situation into a killer deal And So Much More!

Why? Real estate investing is one of the most time-tested, stable, and repeatable ways for the everyday American to get rich, build wealth, and start collecting passive income every month. But you’ll never get going if you don’t know where to start. So to make your 2023 as successful as ever, David Greene, investor, agent, and host of the BiggerPockets Real Estate Podcast, sat down to walk through the eleven steps it takes to go from onlooker to real estate investor. Real estate is NOT a “get rich quick” type of investment, but it can help you build wealth in a surprisingly short amount of time. Just ask David, who spent years working overtime as a cop, slowly building up a real estate portfolio that eventually led him to hit financial freedom before most people buy their first house! In this episode, David will walk step-by-step through everything a new investor must do to get their first rental property, how to analyze real estate deals once you find them, and how to repeat the system, so your passive income stack grows bigger every year!

How should you fund your rentals? And why is today’s housing market so hard to cash flow? These are just some of the questions that regular real estate investors ask themselves. In a high interest rate, low inventory environment like 2023, landlords need to find better deals, use better financing strategies, and look for different ways to profit, to turn their portfolios into passive income-generating machines. Welcome back to a Seeing Greene episode that has questions from all over the nation. Some investors wonder why their cash-on-cash return numbers look so bleak. Others are debating using a HELOC (home equity line of credit) to buy rentals, even as interest rates continue to rise steadily. You'll hear answers to those questions all while David touches on topics around buying for cash flow vs. appreciation, how to buy rental properties while in college, how to find off-market properties, and where to meet private money lenders! Want to ask David a question? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene. Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can hop on a live Q&amp;A and get your question answered on the spot!  In This Episode We Cover: Starting a construction company and using this lucrative trade to invest faster Cash-on-cash return and why appreciating markets are crunching down on potential cash flow Single-family vs. multifamily real estate investing and when to favor appreciation over cash flow Using a HELOC to buy rental properties vs. saving up your cash for a down payment Investing while in college and how to get approved for a mortgage even if you don’t have full-time income Where to find off-market real estate deals and reach motivated sellers And So Much More!

This exhilarating film showcased the almost unbelievably intense reality of being an elite pilot in the military. And behind many of those awe-inspiring stunts and scenes was John Foley, Blue Angels pilot, entrepreneur, real estate investor, public speaker, and all-around inspiring human being. John has performed these death-defying stunts for years and successfully became the one percent of the one percent of pilots. His key to success? Failing hard. As soon as John saw the Blue Angels perform as a child, he dreamed of doing the same. It took him eighteen years to accomplish his dream, but it came with a cost. Before hitting his performance peak, John made a flight mistake that could have ended his career and another pilot’s life. Thankfully, this ill fate was avoided, but John still had to live with the consequences of making such a massive mistake. As a result, John reframed and rewired his brain to be better, retain more, keep his composure, and be “glad to be here.” He’s made his way up to the highest level of flying and knows the key to elite success. The surprisingly simple method is laid out in today’s show, as John walks through the five steps he goes through every day to improve his life constantly, always be grateful, and never leave a day to waste. So if you want to push yourself to the next level, accomplish more than you think you’re capable of, and live more life in the moment, tune into this episode! In This Episode We Cover: Knowing your blind spots and why witnessing your weaknesses can boost your skills Why complacency kills and thinking you’re “good enough” can drag you down  The benefits of a debrief and why you always want to know what you did wrong  Finding your “why” and turning it into the driving force behind your success  The “glad to be here” method and why it’s a “wonder drug” for human happiness  How the 1% of any skill set optimize their performance and push others to do the same  And So Much More!

With low interest rates and a surge of post-pandemic tourism, new hosts were buying homes for cheap monthly payments, throwing some furniture in them, and making a six-figure return within a year of owning just one property. Naturally, this led more and more hosts to start building bigger vacation rental empires, buying as many properties as possible and inflating prices as a result. But, the boom in BnBs caught on quickly, and more investors began tackling the same strategy. Before long, there were more short-term rentals than ever, but the same number of guests occupied them. Now, short-term rental hosts are facing lower occupancy as they struggle to compete over which properties will get which guests. So, is this the end of the short-term rental industry, or is the data showing something completely different? We brought on Jamie Lane, Vice President of Research at AirDNA, to give us a glimmer of hope. Jamie knows short-term rental data better than anyone else. He knows which markets are growing, which are declining, which amenities get you the highest ROI, and why last-minute bookings aren’t a bad thing. He gives us a deep dive into what’s affecting the short-term rental market as a whole, whether it’s on a decline, and what hosts can do to beat out the competition when trying to fill their listings. In This Episode We Cover: The “BnBust” and why so many short-term rental hosts are facing low occupancy  2023 short-term rental predictions and the effect a recession could have on the industry The best short-term rental markets and which tourist cities will remain strong Short-term rental regulations and how they may be a good thing for existing hosts Last-minute bookings and using dynamic pricing to make these stays more profitable The top amenities guests want in their vacation rental in 2023 Superhost status and the massive boost in bookings it can lead to And So Much More!

Even those that had been in the field for decades were finding it challenging to get offers accepted or deals underwritten. Investors were throwing in almost unbelievable amounts of non-refundable earnest money, going well over asking price and analyzing deals at lightning speed, which often led to mistakes, not more money. But the tables have turned, and now, thanks to high interest rates, the buyer is in the driving seat. And how could it be a multifamily episode without Andrew Cushman and Matt Faircloth? These two expert multifamily investors have been buying apartments for decades and helping others do the same! In this episode, Andrew and Matt break down what has gone on in the multifamily markets, why cap rates haven’t kept pace with interest rates, and what buyers can do now that sellers have lost most of their bargaining power. You’ll also get to hear their multifamily predictions for 2023, how far they expect prices to fall, and what you can do to start or scale your multifamily investing this year! Then, Andrew and Matt take questions from the BiggerPockets forums and live Q&amp;As with new multifamily investors. These topics range from property classes explained to raising private capital from investors (who aren’t your mom) and the risks and rewards of investing in smaller markets. Whether you’re interested in duplexes, triplexes, or two-hundred-unit apartment complexes, Andrew and Matt have answers for you! In This Episode We Cover: The mortgage and cap rate battle and how the two are unbalanced in 2023 The multifamily buyer’s market and why now is the time to aggressively chase deals 2023 housing market predictions and what multifamily investors can expect  How to start, or scale, your multifamily real estate portfolio this year  Long-distance real estate investing and assessing a property market from afar How to raise money from private investors and expanding your network The hidden dangers behind investing in a small, tertiary markets And So Much More!

For many investors, turning their single-family home into assisted or senior living seems like an impossible task. Don’t you need to have a medical background? Do you need a license? Can anyone do it? Instead of getting caught in analysis paralysis, Antoinette Munroe looked at the numbers, decided to take the jump, and hasn’t looked back. And after hearing her story, you might do the same! Antoinette found financial freedom in just a few years with vacation rental investing. She used the game-changing strategy of house hacking combined with short-term rentals to profit over a thousand dollars a month, all while living in her own house. She slowly started building her empire, buying one property a year while working towards financial independence. She reached her ultimate goal, retiring early after only a few years of investing. Then, things started to change. With new regulations rolling in, Antoinette had a large slice of her business about to be shut down or restricted at best. She needed to pivot to something that would make her the same money while still being passive enough to live the newly-retired lifestyle. When she heard about assisted living, she knew she had to run the numbers to see if the hype matched reality. The income was astonishing, and now she’s dedicated her time, money, and resources to building an assisted living empire that'll pay her much more than the vacation rentals before. In This Episode We Cover: The “game-changing” house hacking strategy that will help you reach financial freedom faster Why you DON’T need to build a large real estate portfolio to retire early Short-term rental regulations and how they’re delivering a blow to new investors Pivoting your strategy to make even more money when everything is going wrong Assisted living investing explained and how you can get in on the high-income action The funding/financing mistake that Antoinette made and why you MUST avoid it The bright side of short-term rental investors and improving your community while making passive income And So Much More!

Only experienced landlords know how to deal with closing delays, overbudget rehabs, and tenant issues. But that doesn’t mean you have to come in blind on your first real estate investment. If you have the proper knowledge, expectations, and systems set up, you can build a real estate portfolio faster than the rest, which is what Ashley Kehr, author of Real Estate Rookie: 90 Days To Your First Investment, did. Ashley hosts the Real Estate Rookie Podcast, where she interviews new investors who have had one or a few successful deals. She’s seen what it takes for someone to go from bystander to investor and wants to make sure you can purchase your first investment property too. On today’s show, Ashley walks through her pre-closing checklist, where she details everything from due diligence to budgeting renovations and rehabs, how to negotiate with sellers, where to find insurance and more. This is just a brief glimpse at everything you can find in Ashley’s new book, and combining these golden nuggets with what is shared in Real Estate Rookie will get you on a faster path to landlord life and passive income. So, if you’ve been waiting to invest or feeling like you don’t know what you don’t know, this may be the perfect episode to start. Tune in, grab the new book, and get ready to make some property purchases in 2023! In This Episode We Cover: The pre-closing checklist and everything a new investor should do before they come to closing Due diligence and how to ensure title work, home insurance, and taxes are ready Renovation and rehab budgeting and how to build a scope of work even when investing out of state Negotiating with a seller on both on and off-market deals and the pros/cons of using an agent How to smoothly communicate with a seller or agent so you can get a deal done quicker (and with less stress) Landlord insurance and how to find a policy that works for you before you close And So Much More!

Casual real estate investors can slowly start stacking one or two units a year and eventually end up with financial freedom, but often with stress and headaches that match their cash flow. Other investors, like David Greene and Rob Abasolo, take a more goal-oriented approach, building millions of dollars of wealth in under a decade with a portfolio that is self-sustaining, not self-defeating. Our goal here at BiggerPockets is to help YOU find financial freedom by following the same steps as investors like David and Rob. In the same spirit, David and Rob have decided to sit down with three mentees and give them one-on-one coaching to get them to their ultimate goals. These mentees are all at different stages of their investing journey, focusing on different strategies with different properties. First, we talk to Philip, a school teacher who dreams of building out glampsites and campsites, all while developing cash-flowing retreat centers. Secondly, we talk to Wendy, an investor stuck in the “turnkey trap” who wants to escape her job and the low cash flow of “easy” investing. Lastly, we talk to Danny, a multifamily investor who wants to scale faster to regain his time. All of these mentees have the same goal: financial freedom. If you’re trying to find your way out of the rat race and into the wealth-building realm of real estate, these are the episodes for you. We’ll continuously be checking in on our guests, giving them action items, and helping them work through any roadblocks that come their way. So stick around for the journey; you might hit financial freedom faster! In This Episode We Cover: Investing in glamping, camping, and retreat centers and why developing may be a costly move How to find a real estate agent/broker who can source your PERFECT property (even if it’s VERY niche) The “turnkey trap” and why easier investing often leads to lower returns Why working in real estate as you build your portfolio is a cheat code for investors  House hacking, rental arbitrage, and creative ways to rent your properties for more How to scale from small to large multifamily investing and how to find your own mentor And So Much More!

While many real estate investors know about this strategy, only a few of them know it well enough to pull it off. The rules are simple; sell a property, buy another property with the proceeds, and pay no capital gains tax. But, this is far easier said than done, and it’s much easier to make mistakes than most people think. Even our real estate hero, David Greene, had a 1031 exchange go awry. To clear up the misconceptions, highlight the common mistakes, and guide us to tax-advantaged freedom, we’ve brought on 1031 exchange expert, Ryan Finch, to the show to share everything he knows about this misunderstood, often misused strategy. Ryan is a real estate investor at heart, house hacking as a sophomore in college to live for free. After working at multiple commercial real estate and development companies, he got the itch to start investing heavier himself and help others propel their wealth. Now, Ryan works to help real estate investors and everyday homeowners make the most out of their equity. Ryan has unlocked the tools that have allowed those with home equity to build passive income streams, buy bigger, better properties, and reduce much of their landlord burden, all in a single transaction. If you’ve been sitting on some post-2020 equity, this episode will teach you how to use it as fuel for your financial freedom fire, all while ditching the tax bill that comes with selling! In This Episode We Cover: The 1031 exchange explained and using it to avoid taxes (legally) Converting home equity into cash flow and when selling makes more sense than refinancing How both the government and real estate investors benefit from the 1031 exchange  What to know before you use a 1031 exchange and the three rules you MUST pay attention to 1031 tax benefits, depreciation, and cost segregation to massively lower your tax bill The most common mistakes investors make when doing their first 1031 exchange And So Much More!

But that’s easy for someone like David Greene and Rob Abasolo to say, right? They’ve already made it big, with millions of dollars in cash-flowing income properties. But they didn’t start like this. David and Rob have come together to ask themselves, “what would we do if it all came crashing down?” If both of them lost their entire real estate portfolios in one fell swoop, how would they build it back up? Today, we put these two real estate legends in the hot seat and give them the biggest nightmare scenario so they can show you exactly how to build a real estate portfolio from scratch, no matter where you’re starting. David and Rob will also be given certain dollar amounts to use in rebuilding their portfolio. So, if you’ve only got a thousand bucks on you, David and Rob will show you exactly how to use it best to catapult your wealth forward so you can become a real estate millionaire. If 2023 is going to be YOUR year to get started, get going, and get one step closer to financial freedom, we’d suggest following David and Rob’s plan! In This Episode We Cover: The biggest challenges real estate investors face today (and how to solve them) Raising private capital, real estate syndications, and how to use other people’s money to build wealth Mistakes to avoid when building (or starting) your real estate portfolio The four steps to take when rebuilding a real estate portfolio and why building your network is so crucial Rental arbitrage and why it’s a great no money down strategy for cash flow House hacking and the low down payment loans you can use to buy properties for cheap Boosting your brand, creating content, and how to build a reputation in real estate And So Much More!

Most real estate investors think that buying a few dozen dirt-cheap houses is all they need to do to make millions and live a life full of passive income. This is far from reality, as your entire net worth could come crashing down as soon as a housing market crash, correction, or new rental policy comes into play. So how do you build a sustainable real estate portfolio—one that will grow your wealth even during the worst of economic times? David Greene has touched on this topic numerous times, often referring to “portfolio architecture” as one of the most crucial aspects of building wealth through real estate. This strategy not only helps you grow wealth but keep it even when everything goes wrong. Don’t believe us? Listen to David and Rob’s individual stories on what happened to their portfolios during the 2020 lockdowns and how quickly they bounced back while other investors had to completely rebuild. In part one of this two-part podcast, David and Rob will go through the most common weaknesses in their real estate portfolios, what could cause everything to come crashing down, and the five most important keys to portfolio architecture. They also talk about diversification and how having just one type of real estate in one location could be a huge mistake. In This Episode We Cover: Why cash flow isn’t as reliable as most investors think and why you CAN’T depend on it The few things that could completely destroy your real estate portfolio  Liquidity and how much cash to have on hand/ready to deploy when things go wrong Why all real estate investors should strive to be “broke millionaires” Real estate diversification and why you want to own rentals in more than one market The five factors of portfolio architecture that EVERY investor must pay attention to And So Much More!

Unlike all the rest, there are no utilities, renovations, or tenants to take care of. It’s really as simple as buying a piece of land with high demand and finding a seller who either wants to build or sit on it. But can it be that easy? If land flipping is low cost, low risk, and high reward, why aren’t more investors buying raw land? What are everyday real estate investors like us missing that land flippers like Paul Hersko and Willie Goldberg understand? Paul and Willie, like many investors, didn’t start out in real estate. Willie worked in investment banking while Paul was busy running an ecommerce business. Both were feeling unfulfilled by their work and wanted to build something bigger and better on their own. After a casual skydiving session, Paul and Willie realized they'd be perfect partners together, deciding that buying, selling, and financing raw land was what interested them most. Now they’re making massive multiples on literal dirt, selling plots online to investors and retail buyers who want to own real estate without the big banks, down payments, and high interest rates. Paul and Willie have built an entire business around these types of deals, and even though land is low-cost, you'd be surprised by how much they make off of a simple land sale. This could be the best low-risk real estate investing out there!  In This Episode We Cover: The benefits of buying and selling raw land and why it’s far less stressful than regular rental property investing  Flipping land and why offering owner financing almost always gets the deal done  Building a scalable system for your real estate business and the crucial KPIs to track The risks behind buying raw land and pitfalls to look out for when getting started Why banks refuse to lend on raw land and using the lack of loans as an opportunity  The one US state that Paul and Willie refuse to buy land in  And So Much More!

There’s something for everyone on this episode of Seeing Greene, as David tackles questions that go far beyond just basic investing. And as the housing market continues to get even more confusing, homebuyers, landlords, and sellers are stuck with some serious debates that only an expert agent, mortgage broker, and investor like David can answer! When choosing to rent vs. buy a home, David uses some geographic-specific data to decide which markets make more sense to own. Then, we have a question on how an interest-only mortgage works, and whether not paying into principal is a waste of time or a better option for cash-flow-strapped landlords. If you’re thinking of buying a property in all cash, David has some advice as to why now may not be the time to use loan-free dollars to get a better deal. Finally, David takes a more personal question from a listener, asking when to put real estate over relationships and why dating feels like a “waste of time” when trying to build wealth. Want to ask David a question? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene. Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can hop on a live Q&amp;A and get your question answered on the spot! In This Episode We Cover: Buying vs. renting and when house hacking makes sense EVEN if you lose money every month Using a HELOC (home equity line of credit) to buy your first rental and the dangers of doing so Investing in your business vs. buying more real estate and when to do both The “lease-back” agreement and why it’s a phenomenal way to get a tough deal done Buying rentals in cash and why it may be a mistake as the markets shifts more to the buyers Having a social life vs. investing and why so many investors find dating a waste of time And So Much More!

If you’re thinking of buying a property in all cash, David has some advice as to why now may not be the time to use loan-free dollars to get a better deal. Finally, David takes a more personal question from a listener, asking when to put real estate over relationships and why dating feels like a “waste of time” when trying to build wealth. Want to ask David a question? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene. Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can hop on a live Q&amp;A and get your question answered on the spot! In This Episode We Cover: Buying vs. renting and when house hacking makes sense EVEN if you lose money every month Using a HELOC (home equity line of credit) to buy your first rental and the dangers of doing so Investing in your business vs. buying more real estate and when to do both The “lease-back” agreement and why it’s a phenomenal way to get a tough deal done Buying rentals in cash and why it may be a mistake as the markets shifts more to the buyers Having a social life vs. investing and why so many investors find dating a waste of time And So Much More!

As soon as you’ve got your footing in one strategy, it violently jerks you into another, often by force. This is how most investors felt during the great recession as flipping profits dried up, home sales fell off a cliff, and investors were faced with a tough question, “who’s going to buy these deals?” While many investors stood on the sidelines, hoping that someone would save them, Eric Brewer did something much different, and it’s a move that’s paid off heavily over ten years later. Before the crash, Eric was a car salesman, but he wasn’t the type you’re imagining. His main strategy was “talk to everyone,” and it earned him salesman of the month almost every month. But selling cars didn’t make for a family-friendly schedule, so he pivoted into real estate investing and took the dealership’s owner with him. They were flipping hundreds of houses a year, making tenfold what they were used to when selling cars. But then the housing crash happened, and once again Eric needed to pivot. Now, instead of just flipping, he’s doing wholesale deals, novation contracts (MUCH bigger profits than wholesale), turnkey rental sales, and more. As the housing market has changed, so has Eric’s mindset, never betting on one strategy to be the one that brings home the bacon. Eric has stayed ahead of the game, blatantly ignores the “expert advice” off-market investors like to peddle, and pivots as soon as the market shows signs of a move. In this flip-flop market we’ve experienced over the past two years, this is EXACTLY what investors need to hear.  In This Episode We Cover: How Eric closes on over thirty real estate deals a MONTH using simple marketing tactics  The biggest “buyers list” no one knows about, and why you won’t find it where you’d think Why most people HATE salespeople, and how to get around the common seller/buyer objections  BRRRRing &gt; flipping and why the tax code favors holders over flippers  Eric’s top ways to find off-market deals and why you should NEVER disqualify a lead  Novation deals and why they’re better and more profitable than wholesaling in 2023 And So Much More!

He essentially owned the MTV lineup for years with hit shows such as Rob &amp; Big, Rob Dyrdek's Fantasy Factory, and Ridiculousness. At first glance, Rob may look like a phenomenal skater who turned his passion into something profitable. But behind the half pipes is an almost unbelievable amount of discipline, wisdom, and time optimization that only a select few know about. Rob, like many entrepreneurs, ditched school early on when he realized that his talents were best used elsewhere. He left high school at sixteen, went on to compete in the highest level of skateboarding, and started his first company at seventeen. He was bringing in millions of dollars a year at an age where money is almost incomprehensible. Rob was fueled by creation, starting dozens of businesses that were doing millions in revenue but weren’t making a financial difference in his life. So, he took a high-level view of what was worth keeping and cut out everything but that. From then on Rob began investing down two major avenues—businesses and real estate. Most people who follow Rob know about the former, but very few know about the latter. Now, Rob’s on the show to help us celebrate the 700th episode of the BiggerPockets Real Estate Podcast and show us how we too can make millions of dollars by tracking every minute of our day as intelligently as possible.  In This Episode We Cover: Becoming an entrepreneur and Rob’s earliest business ventures Why quantity over quality is key when building businesses and brands Real estate syndications and why Rob will only touch a certain type of property The “soul-sucking” landlord life and why it is NOT for everyone Rob’s recession-proof plan that will make him millions even as investing fear peaks Tracking your life and how doing so will make you richer and happier almost automatically Building your financial framework and how so many doors open after you do so And So Much More!

So, what do you do when your income isn't enough to buy the next property? What if you've used up all your financeability on your primary residence or house hack? How can you squeeze out a loan to buy another property? We’re back on another Seeing Greene episode, where your “one away from seven hundred” host, David Greene, is here to give you practical advice on buying and selling properties. In today’s episode, we take multiple video and written submissions, with topics touching on how to buy more real estate when your debt-to-income is maxed out, what to do with a dangerous tenant, refinancing at today’s high interest rates, and why off-market deals aren’t always what they seem to be. And, if you’ve struggled with setting standards before, you’re in for a special treat, as David gives himself (and all of you) a personal pep talk on expecting excellency. Want to ask David a question? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene. Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can hop on a live Q&amp;A and get your question answered on the spot!

All of a sudden, you’ve gone from a two-income household to just one, your children are now your sole responsibility, and you’ve got to almost financially start over. Finding financial independence after events like this would be awe-inspiring—so imagine you did it all in just two years. Sarah King did just that, with thirteen units under her belt since buying her house hack property in 2020. Sarah worked hard to put herself in a strong financial position. She was a debt-free disciple who paid off six figures in debt. Then, she focused on her savings, minimizing her expenses and increasing her income as much as she possibly could. But then, when everything started to feel stable, she uncovered something that would unravel her marriage. She went from financially stable to undoubtedly anxious in a matter of days. But it’s what she did next that was incredible. Knowing she had to do whatever she could to take care of her daughter, Sarah went on rental property shopping spree. She built the portfolio she knew her family needed, and now just two years later, she’s enjoying the fruits of her non-stop labor. But how did she get the money for the deals? What strategy allowed her to cash flow so much in such a short amount of time? If you want to do what Sarah did, you’ll have to tune into this episode. In This Episode We Cover: How to achieve financial independence through real estate in less time than you think House hacking and why it’s arguably the best way to start investing  Why being scared of debt is a downside when trying to build a rental property portfolio The medium-term rental strategy and using it to get better cash flow on smaller units Private money lending and how to raise private capital from those who know and trust you Hiring, outsourcing, delegating, and how to free up much more time in your life The phenomenal funnels that will bring you the best tenants, deals, and more money!

Some are short-term rental markets, others are affordable cash-flowing long-term rental markets, and many are in between, capitalizing on strong appreciation with enough monthly profit to keep investors going. The great thing about investing in the US is that we have fifty states' worth of land to buy, improve, and rent out. And today, we’ll be looking at three specific markets, all with wildly different price ranges and profit potential for 2023. Welcome back to this month’s BiggerNews, where your host Dave Meyer (not David Greene *gasp*) will be interviewing three of the most elite agents across the United States. We’ll talk to Rob Chevez, the investor and experienced agent operating in our nation’s capital, Washington, DC. You’ll also hear from Dahlia Khalaf, managing broker of ASN Realty Group in affordable Oklahoma. And, of course, we’ve got David Greene, California’s favorite realtor, here to talk about why sunny San Diego deserves an investment from you. With mid-priced markets like DC, affordable real estate in Oklahoma, and massively-appreciating west-coast properties to build your wealth, this episode of BiggerNews shows you how you can invest in ANY of these markets and build wealth in 2023. The agents also talk about the strategies that are working in each market and some of the major pitfalls you could stumble upon if you aren’t a local expert. Need to find an agent in your neck of the woods? Use the BiggerPockets Agent Finder to connect with a local expert in your area! In This Episode We Cover: How markets like Washington, DC, Tulsa, and San Diego are faring in 2023 The oversaturation of short-term rentals and which investors should avoid buying them The real estate “Bermuda triangle” and why every investor should buy at least one property there House hacking for cash flow and turning your primary residence into a paid-for mortgage  Subject to deals and other creative financing strategies that work as the buyer’s market takes shape Advice from expert agents around the country for investors in 2023 And So Much More!

For some investors, setting goals is a coveted experience where they get to center themselves and plan for the coming year. For others, setting goals can seem stressful as there are too many shiny objects always around to chase. This type of dichotomy exists even among the most experienced investors, as you’ll see in this episode. David Greene, everyone’s favorite investor, agent, broker, and mentor, systematically sets his goals, while Rob “Robuilt” Abasolo, the internet’s short-term rental oracle, does things a bit differently. In this episode, you’ll get a peek behind the scenes at how two very successful investors set goals in two very different ways. But this isn’t just about real estate investing and building wealth. David and Rob both touch on the personal goals they’ve set out for themselves and how they organically intertwine with the lofty investing goals they’ve set for 2023. David and Rob both want to grow their wealth substantially in 2023. But this doesn’t mean that they’re just hungry for doors. You’ll hear a crucial tip on how top real estate investors focus more on revenue than on unit count and how mistakenly chasing more properties could put you in a stressed-out situation without much to show for it! If you’re ready to tackle some of your biggest goals yet, tune in to this episode, and bring a planner while you’re at it! In This Episode We Cover: How to crush your 2023 goals by revamping and reviewing your 2022 plans Constantly updating your MINS (most important next steps) to hit goals even faster The struggles of outsourcing and hiring and why you MUST do it to grow The “more doors” trap that investors often find themselves falling into Building your vision for the next year and basing your goals on an end-result Content creation, building your brand, and becoming a bigger figure in the real estate space And So Much More!

Ever decided to look up the wealthiest people in your area and give them a call? What type of tips could they give you for success? What business ideas would they push you to try? And how would your life change? Instead of speculating, at a young age, Andrew J. Abernathey tried out this strategy, and much to his surprise, he got the billionaire mentor he always dreamed of. Before that, Andrew was just a simple farm boy. You know how it goes: tending to the field, ordering supplies, and trading futures at ten years old. Yep, you read that right. Andrew was making trading calls on grain prices at only ten years old, a skill that his father helped teach him. At fourteen, Andrew decided to put some money in the stock market, and a year later, walked away with an $80,000 profit. And like all young boys, he knew exactly what he wanted to spend his money on—a million-dollar apartment complex! Picking up on a pattern? Andrew has been making incredible moves at almost unbelievably young ages. But we haven’t even touched on the most incredible part of his journey yet. In this episode, you’ll hear how Andrew made wild real estate profits at sixteen, met his billionaire mentor by offering him some pie, and went on to build hundreds of millions in self-storage. It’s all true, and it’s all coming up in this episode! In This Episode We Cover: The importance of early financial education and investing at a young age How parents can cultivate the passions their kids possess  Puts and calls, stock trading, and how to invest like Warren Buffett Apartment investing and how knowing your market can make you millions  How to find a mentor (even if you’re looking for a billionaire!) Analysis paralysis, shiny object syndrome, and sticking to one strategy Self-storage development and the details behind the deal And So Much More!

If you want to realize financial freedom, you’ll need consistent, passive monthly income. But with cash flow harder to find than ever before, how can you get it when real estate prices and interest rates remain high? Should you give up on cash flow entirely and only bank on appreciation? Maybe not. Using the strategy David outlines today, you can convert your equity into cash flow, but you’ll need to follow the right steps. Welcome back to another Seeing Greene episode, where David, and some expert guests, answer your questions surrounding anything and everything related to real estate investing. Joining us on today’s show are Dave Meyer, J Scott, and Pat Hiban, all BiggerPockets authors and real estate masters in their own rights. They tag-team questions ranging from how to get around the twenty percent down payment requirement, how to calculate the time value of money on an investment, how HELOCs (home equity lines of credit) work, whether investing in hurricane-heavy Florida makes sense, and more! Don’t forget to head over to the BiggerPockets Bookstore to get massive discounts on some of the best real estate investing books in the world! Still itching to ask David a question?

If you want to realize financial freedom, you’ll need consistent, passive monthly income. But with cash flow harder to find than ever before, how can you get it when real estate prices and interest rates remain high? Should you give up on cash flow entirely and only bank on appreciation? Maybe not. Using the strategy David outlines today, you can convert your equity into cash flow, but you’ll need to follow the right steps. Welcome back to another Seeing Greene episode, where David, and some expert guests, answer your questions surrounding anything and everything related to real estate investing. Joining us on today’s show are Dave Meyer, J Scott, and Pat Hiban, all BiggerPockets authors and real estate masters in their own rights. They tag-team questions ranging from how to get around the twenty percent down payment requirement, how to calculate the time value of money on an investment, how HELOCs (home equity lines of credit) work, whether investing in hurricane-heavy Florida makes sense, and more!

For the most part, working at a job, getting a steady paycheck, and bringing home the bacon is enough. That is until something forcibly stops you from working. It could be a workplace injury, a family emergency, or even a cancer diagnosis. What do you do when you can’t work or provide for your family, all while fighting a life-threatening disease? Josh Goldstein was in this exact situation in 2015 when doctors gave him a rough diagnosis—pancreatic cancer. Josh and his wife knew that he could make it through the treatments, but the financial problem still loomed largely. How would they be able to pay the bills, take care of their kids, or continue living the life they loved without any money coming in from Josh’s work? The answer—real estate investing. After years of analysis paralysis and a deep obsession with BiggerPockets content (woohoo!), Josh bought his first property as the world was starting to shut down. But he didn’t let the lockdowns stop his plan to hit financial freedom fast. Over the past two years, Josh has gone from zero to twenty units, some of which he’s never laid eyes on before. This portfolio, which was built out of a life-threatening situation, is now bringing in hundreds of thousands a year for Josh’s family, providing them well-earned financial independence. In This Episode We Cover: Solving life’s hardest problems (even when they threaten to kill you!) Building your foundation for financial freedom today so you’ll never be out of options Kicking analysis paralysis to the curb and the simple way to start investing in real estate Long-distance real estate investing and why it isn’t as scary as you may think Short-term rental saturation and what will happen as hosts buy more and more homes Why you always want to double-check the battery life on your home’s smart locks  And So Much More!

Most real estate investors either want to be completely hands-off, letting a property manager handle the entirety of their leasing and management, OR be hands-on, constantly dealing with tenant issues themselves. And for a long time, there wasn’t a great way to self-manage. You either ran your business off scraps of paper or insufficient spreadsheets. But it’s 2022, and this has completely changed. When Ryan Barone was applying for his first apartment, he was blown away by how complicated the tenant application process was. So, he built an app that made it easier for tenants to upload all their documents to landlords. Then, the landlords started reaching out to Ryan asking for a tenant management version of the software. As a result, RentRedi was born, and has slowly grown to become one of the most popular property management tools around! Ryan credits much of his success to early BiggerPockets users, who constantly tested and tried RentRedi when it was in early development. Now, the software is fully formed—used by tens of thousands of investors across the country. And it comes standard with a BiggerPockets Pro Membership! If you want to know how to manage your properties without the headaches (or high costs) of regular property management, stick around. Ryan gives a full demo on how you can start using RentRedi today! In This Episode We Cover: Common landlord and tenant headaches and how RentRedi instantly solves them Reporting, rent collection, bookkeeping, and more features you can get with RentRedi How to start self-managing as a new landlord even if you have no experience How RentRedi used BiggerPockets users as beta testers to build the best property management software around Outsourcing and delegating tasks so you can build your business faster than ever before Turning tenant problems into profits and managing your rentals without breaking the bank And So Much More!

It always seems like the wealthiest landlords, apartment owners, or short-term rental hosts walk away with not only massive income but little-to-no tax bills at the end of the year. Are investors unethically avoiding taxes OR are they carefully, quietly using the tax code to build wealth and bring their tax burden down to zero? And if the big investors can do it, can average investors use the same strategies? Whether you own one, ten, or a thousand rental units, Matt Bontrager, CPA at TrueBooks, has a solution for you. He’s been working with real estate investors for years to help them minimize their tax burdens and maximize their portfolio values.

Communities are dying, young people are feeling helpless, and wealth is slowly being sucked out of the system to give the ultra-rich even more comforts than before. The average American merely wants to make it—having a house, a family, and maybe an ounce of peace. But with mainstream media violently pointing fingers at one another and the modern worker feeling desolate in the daily grind, what can we do to put this country on the correct course? Scott knows that the game is rigged. He has strong feelings that real estate investors, like many of us, are playing with “cheat codes.” But, that doesn’t mean we’re doing anything wrong. Scott dives into his personal philosophy on who has taken advantage of this country, who needs the most help, and how a young, aspiring entrepreneur or investor can build wealth, without blindly buying into “sexy” assets. Although Scott likes real estate (and wishes he bought more of it), he cautions young investors to take a step back and be intelligent with their investments. A few right moves when Scott was young allowed him to live the life he has today—but this was through hard work and taking the right action, not waiting for someone else to save him. No matter what age you are, what side of the political spectrum you fall on, or your feelings toward real estate—Scott has words you’ll want to hear. In This Episode We Cover: Scott’s new book Adrift and why he thinks America’s course needs to be corrected The biggest problems America is facing today and how a specific demographic is rigging the system The bias against boys and how young men are left behind How young people can get ahead and why they should steer clear of “sexy” investments Fiat money, cryptocurrency, and how the American dollar is quickly losing its value The real estate “cheat codes” that any investor can take advantage of How YOU can create change in the world that will lead to more equality, friendship, and connectivity And So Much More!

This is the constant struggle real estate investors find themselves in. When they have cash, there aren’t enough deals. When they have deals, there isn’t enough cash. This catch-22 usually puts investors in a spin cycle, never pulling the trigger on their first or next deal. But, it doesn’t have to be this way. With the right mindset, you can find the money to purchase more rental property, even if you’ve run out of options. This is what expert investor, David Greene, refers to as his capital “carrot,” or the thing that allows him to find (and make) more money to buy even more real estate. And it’s just one of the topics in today’s Seeing Greene show. In this episode, David takes a live call from Garrett, who’s struggling with whether or not to sell or keep his first deal. We also get questions about BRRRRing with high interest rates, where to find medium-term rental tenants, and how to find a realtor in a brand-new market. Want to ask David a question? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene. Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can hop on a live Q&amp;A and get your question answered on the spot! In This Episode We Cover: The house hack “savings” that turn a dud into a screaming real estate deal Whether or not keep or sell a rental even if you’re not making much from it How to buy BRRRRs in today’s high-interest rate environment  Dominating a market as a brand new real estate agent or realtor Where to find medium-term rental tenants and common short-term rental regulations How to find a rockstar real estate agent when investing out of state And So Much More!

Unlike most professional athletes, Evan left the league with more assets than at the peak of his career. He was buying real estate, building homes, and making moves while working a grueling six days a week schedule, knowing that he had to use this opportunity to build something that went far beyond basketball. Evan grew up in the inner city with a single parent. The realities of struggling for money were all too real for him when he got hit with millions of dollars in his early 20s. He struggled to spend any money for the first few years of his NBA career, which led him to have a surplus that he used in all the right ways. Relying on NBA veterans around him, Evan knew that to build wealth, he needed to up his assets. The most tangible thing he could think of investing in? Real estate. Now, with many deals under his belt, Evan has become proficient in almost every aspect of buying, funding, and profiting on a real estate deal. He, like many other investors, is seen as lucky for buying consistently throughout the past decade. But Evan knows that the rewards he reaps today came from smart decisions he made years ago. Now, even after he’s out of the game, Evan is still able to bring in seven-figure paychecks. But this time, thanks to smart strategizing, he’ll get to keep most of it. In This Episode We Cover: Making the money mindset shift that allows you to build wealth while others waste their resources Opportunity zone investing and using real estate to revitalize urban communities Evan’s unbelievable seven-figure fix and flip vacation home deal Why the first investment property matters most and how to ensure you turn a profit with no experience Building your real estate team and why everyone needs to network Taking the “luck” out of investing and why consistency beats timing every time And So Much More!

Before you’d have to drive for dollars, mark down addresses, build a spreadsheet, constantly update it, and maybe, just maybe, you’d get a motivated seller willing to do a deal with you. This process was overly complicated, expensive, and took too much time. Because it was so challenging, many new real estate investors would forego looking for off-market deals entirely and only stick with on-market MLS listings. But things have changed. We’ve brought back four-time guest, Justin Silverio, onto the podcast to talk about his new tool, Invelo. Invelo puts all your lists, leads, and tasks into one place, so you’re not scatterbrained when building an off-market lead flow. This app allows anyone, no matter their experience level, to find owners, phone numbers, and addresses while tracking your touch points in a systematized, automated way, so you always have new leads coming in. This software is a game changer for flippers, wholesalers, and any investor trying to dodge the high prices and agent commissions of buying on-market. And Justin assures us, even if you’ve never done an off-market deal, Invelo will give you everything you need to successfully get the first one in the bag. Stick around ‘til the end of the episode, where we share a special way to start marketing for free with this game-changing tool! In This Episode We Cover: How Justin started flipping houses and finding off-market deals with no experience The right way to do direct mail and why so many investor letters get thrown in the trash Using Invelo to build lists, reach sellers, and get educated on how to find deals faster How to optimize your marketing budget by only marketing to leads who could turn into deals Invelo’s automation that scrubs your list for you so you only keep the best leads  A special discount for BiggerPockets Pro and how you can get a free marketing credit with Invelo And So Much More!

Back in 2020 and 2021, homeowners were bragging to their friends about their rock-bottom mortgage rates and how they secured financing at three percent or less! But times have changed, and seven percent interest rates are becoming the norm. Now, nobody is bragging—in fact, many investors are too scared to buy, thinking that today’s interest rates are far too high to buy homes with. If you’re following this thought process, you could be making a BIG mistake. Welcome back with another Seeing Greene episode, where our “high rates, who cares?” host, David Greene, answers questions directly from investors just like you.

Back in 2020 and 2021, homeowners were bragging to their friends about their rock-bottom mortgage rates and how they secured financing at three percent or less! But times have changed, and seven percent interest rates are becoming the norm. Now, nobody is bragging—in fact, many investors are too scared to buy, thinking that today’s interest rates are far too high to buy homes with. If you’re following this thought process, you could be making a BIG mistake. Welcome back with another Seeing Greene episode, where our “high rates, who cares?” host, David Greene, answers questions directly from investors just like you. In today’s show, David coaches a young investor on building his side business, why quitting your job could be a mistake, and how to learn from past deals to build wealth far faster. Then, David pivots into answering questions from investors on how to get over your fear of taking on good debt, how much to have in safety reserves for your property, and why being scared of high interest rates could hurt you in the long run.

After going from a street cop to the FBI and later thriving as a hostage negotiator, he wrote the world-famous book, Never Split the Difference. This book has served as a masterclass in negotiation for almost every field of work, including real estate investing. Although many of Chris’s examples come from life-or-death situations, the same rules and tactics can be applied to real estate investing. That is exactly why Chris pivoted and started coaching real estate agents to become better negotiators. But maybe you’re not an agent. Maybe you’re just trying to get your first or next deal done, working with a tough buyer/seller, and feeling like you’re making no headway. Chris has seen this time and time again. An overly aggressive buyer comes in, lowballs a seller, the seller then paints the buyer as the enemy, and the duo does a dance to the death ending in no deal done and frustrations at all-time highs. This is NOT the way to do real estate deals, and Chris has some advice that’ll help you change the way you (and your agent) get things done. Chris goes in-depth on a few concepts, such as why “no” is actually what you want to hear, how to form “calibrated questions” that get you what you want, and why you’ll need to start using “tactical empathy” if you want to close deals faster. These are some of the same tactics that co-host Rob recently used to get a multimillion-dollar property, without much money out of pocket. No matter your skill level, number of deals done, or years of experience, this advice from Chris could catapult your investing to the next level. In This Episode We Cover: Reviewing key lessons taught in Chris’s classic, Never Split the Difference  Why most real estate agents will work against their clients, instead of with them Using overcommunication to develop instant rapport with a buyer, seller, or client “Tactical empathy” and why it’s a brilliant way to keep your opponent open to offers Asking “calibrated questions” that make sellers feel safe when working with you Building a negotiation scarecrow and making someone else (not you) the instant, uniting enemy And So Much More!

We were sold a future where remote work was the only option, where everyone had an at-home standing desk, and nobody needed to wear pants. But, this didn't last long, as companies slowly started taking steps to get workers back into the office, making owners of the offices wealthy once again. But, with so many companies trying flexible schedules, prioritizing work from home, and renewing their video conferencing subscriptions, will office space still be the same as it was just a few years ago? On this month’s BiggerNews, we brought on Kevin Fagan, Senior Director and Head of CRE Economic Analysis at Moody’s Analytics, to give us the scoop on office investing and commercial real estate in 2022. Kevin’s team works diligently going through the data behind office investments, highlighting whether or not leases are renewed, how rents are being affected, and if office buildings are truly being abandoned. He brings some good news not only for office space investors, but for real estate investors as a whole, showing that this niche won’t be going away anytime soon. With coworking and residential conversions on the rise, office building investments could be a far smarter move than most investors would assume. In This Episode We Cover: How office space investing fared through the pandemic and how far occupancy rates fell Comparing today’s office investing environment to 2008’s and the stark differences between the two Office occupancy forecasting and when the data predicts a full recovery How unemployment rates will affect office investors and whether or not employers will force workers back into the office The best real estate markets to invest in office space and which big metros to definitely avoid The benefits of office investing compared to residential real estate and why this low-turnover niche is worth it And So Much More!

Crime, destruction, theft, violence—you name it, we’ve dealt with it. With the spookiest day of the year coming close, we’re going to tell you all our terrible real estate tales. Everyone on podcasts and YouTube wants to show you how easy it is to invest, how it’s an assured path to wealth, and rarely what type of mistakes you can make. But we’re flipping the script, bringing in some of the best and brightest in real estate to show that the grass is usually greener where the septic tank is. Today’s guests, who have all collectively succeeded at failing, are Andrew Cushman, Jamil Damji, and Matt Faircloth. If you’ve been a BiggerPockets listener, these names may sound familiar to you, but if you’re brand new, let us introduce you to these industry giants. Andrew is a multifamily expert and one of the smartest names in the game on screening and underwriting (analyzing) properties. Jamil built the nation’s largest wholesaling operation and is an expert guest on On the Market. And Matt, CEO of the DeRosa Group, literally wrote the book on Raising Private Capital. But these titans of industry only made mistakes at the beginning of their careers, right? Not quite. They share today a selection of stories that will make you realize that the only successful investors are the ones who can both literally and figuratively weather a strong storm. And if you think it’s all cash flow and cruises for these investors, you couldn’t be more wrong.  In This Episode We Cover: Why you should ALWAYS check out a property before you buy (and what happens if you don’t) Becoming the "Sheriff" of your investment and how contractors can easily take you for a ride 1031 exchange mistakes and how to negotiate with a seller even when you’re on a time crunch Always staying in your lane and trusting your gut when a deal doesn’t feel right Paying more for insurance and how to financially prepare for a natural disaster  Why even with all the pain, real estate investing is the best wealth vehicle in the game!

At some point, they realize a long-term rental, mother-in-law suite, or family cabin could become a revenue-generating, passive income machine. So what do they do? They go online to all the big travel sites, upload their listing, and start hosting. After a few months or years, they buy another short-term rental, and now, they’ve got multiple properties across a few different sites. The reviews are flowing, and the revenue with it. But one day, it stops. This happened to Rob when his listing got locked—halting his revenue. Without much of a way to repair this, Rob started thinking of how he could host with autonomy and reduce the risk as his portfolio grew. Sooner or later, Rob and today’s guest, Mark Simpson, started talking. Mark, an expert in hospitality, knew that something like this would happen. It’s why Mark has been helping hosts build their own booking sites over at Boostly.  As a short-term rental expert, Mark helps hosts build an income stream that can’t be paused, limited, or removed. Instead, he and his team give hosts everything they need to get more bookings, pay fewer fees, and keep guests coming back for more. And, as the short-term rental space grows at lightspeed, Mark argues that hosts should start building out these direct booking sites now before it’s too late.  In This Episode We Cover: The danger of solely hosting your short-term rentals on online travel agencies  How so many hosts find themselves “held hostage” by guests and travel sites Building your “guest avatar” and modifying your vacation rental to fit your ideal guest Guest screening tips and how to safely rent your property on your own website  Underrated upgrades to make to your short-term rental that massively boost bookings  Effortlessly converting guests online travel stays and into direct bookings  And So Much More!

In the past, if you wanted high cash flow, you’d be hit with the headache of running a short-term or vacation rental. So, most investors who wanted to take the passive investing route stuck to regular, long-term rental properties. But, with interest rates higher than many of us have ever seen, most regular rental properties simply won’t cut it. Thankfully, there's a strategy that merges short and long-term rentals, with many of the combined benefits but few drawbacks. The strategy is simple: buy a house, furnish it, and rent it out for over thirty days. Surprisingly, doing so will often get you double the rent as a regular rental property without the constant turnover of short-term rentals. Don’t believe us? Maybe Sarah Weaver and Zeona McIntyre can change your mind. They’ve been doing the medium-term rental strategy for years, and it’s what’s given them the financial freedom they enjoy today! Sarah, shortly after finding out about the medium-term rental strategy, converted many of her long-term rentals into medium-term. Zeona, a former short-term rental owner, knew the high cash flow, low maintenance approach would help her live the nomadic lifestyle she loves. They detail exactly how they did it, what it takes to succeed, and how you can repeat the process in their new book, 30-Day Stay.  In This Episode We Cover: The medium-term rental strategy explained and why it’s often a better bet than short-term rentals Switching from short-term rentals to medium-term rentals and why the pivot makes sense The best guests for medium-term rentals and why it isn’t always about traveling nurses Which markets work best for this strategy and what bedroom/bathroom count has the highest ROI Property management, maintenance, and how to make sure your medium-term rental succeeds Analyzing a medium-term rental property and what extra costs to be aware of And So Much More!

How to Find Deals and Steals on the MLS w/Jamil Damji</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/678-is-the-buyer-s-market-back-how-to-find-deals-and-steals-on-the-mls-w-jamil-damji--75656404</link><description><![CDATA[Let’s be honest. The housing market has been a pain over the past few years. Sellers wouldn’t entertain any offer that wasn’t 10% over the listing price, real estate agents wouldn’t return your calls, and you may have thought that the time to buy rental properties was over. Fortunately, the tides have turned, and the seller’s market has almost overnight become a buyer’s market. Price drops are aplenty on the MLS, real estate agents want to be your best friend, and sellers desperately need to get their homes offloaded. This creates an opportunity for you to start buying deals at a discount. Jamil Damji, America’s leading wholesaler, knows that now is the time to get properties under contract. He’s been an expert at off-market deal-finding for decades, but now, he says that on-market deals are becoming far easier to find. Combine his nationwide knowledge with David Greene’s agent expertise, and you have a masterclass on finding steals, not just deals, in today’s housing market. David and Jamil go through eight different techniques you can use to find deals, lock them in at a low price, and grow your real estate portfolio, while everyone else is too scared to act. In times like these, when fear is at an all-time high, smart investors keep their cool, continue buying based on the numbers, and walk away far richer than the average investor. Interested in doing the same? Grab your notepad and write down these eight techniques. There’s a good chance you’ll be using them soon! In This Episode We Cover: How the housing market has shifted and whether or not we’ve become a buyer’s market Off-market vs. on-market deal-finding strategies and which makes sense in 2022/2023 Using “emotional influence” to get a seller to agree to your terms as soon as possible Building relationships with listing agents so they act as your ally in a deal How to leverage “bad news” to turn frustration into motivation for a seller  Tell-tale signs of a motivated seller that will quickly get a deal done And So Much More!

How can that be possible with high interest rates and higher home prices? If you’re looking at what’s on the MLS as the only deals around, you could be missing out on buying properties that could fast-track your journey to early retirement. Taylor Wing, unlike most investors, didn’t go the conventional route when building his rental property portfolio. But, walking the road less traveled has paid off significantly, as he has already found financial freedom in less time than it takes most investors to buy their first property! Taylor’s career trajectory was cut and dry from the start. After graduating from West Point, he entered the Army and knew exactly how rankings, raises, and benefits would work from the day he started until the day he retired. This rigidity didn’t sit well with an entrepreneurial-minded, soon-to-be investor like Taylor. After his first house hack, and a very successful BRRRR, Taylor went full-throttle on investing. Now, just two years later, he has a portfolio of over thirty rental units, a Rolodex full of private money lenders, and teams in multiple states ready to help him grow. So what sets Taylor apart from the rest? Aside from his resilience, Taylor chose to take action once he had enough information, instead of falling victim to analysis paralysis. If you follow Taylor’s advice, you too could grow a portfolio as fast as he did! In This Episode We Cover: Taking action, pushing past fear, and refusing to be stuck in analysis paralysis Direct-to-seller marketing and how to find off-market real estate deals Creative financing strategies, the subject to method, and no money down deals Defining your “buy box” and red flags when looking for a BRRRR or rental property Building your real estate team and the most important hire you can have How to create an actionable plan to reach financial freedom in only a few years  And So Much More!

Regular rental property investors shudder at the constant turnover, consistent guest complaints, and far more intensive upkeep that vacation rental property owners pride themselves on. But is a week in the life of a self-managing short-term rental empire owner that bad? Well, maybe we’ll just have Rob Abasolo AKA Robuilt, YouTube’s go-to authority on vacation rental investing, answer this. Rob has had a troubling week to put it lightly. From guests somehow deadbolting themselves out of their homes to ACs being frozen solid, sending vacationers to the wrong address, and almost obliterating a $20,000 pool, many things can go wrong in the realm of short-term rentals. But, is the profit worth the pain? Dave Meyer from On The Market joins along this episode to act as Rob’s therapist/cheerleader as we go through a week’s worth of almost unbelievable events in the life of a vacation rental property owner. This episode highlights lessons learned from each mistake that you can use to build a better rental property portfolio, have a more seamless customer experience, and maybe get a little more “me and my burrito” time. In This Episode We Cover: Setting up fail-safes around your short-term rental so guests always have a way in Why sticking to your guns isn’t always the best way to build a strong vacation destination brand Supply chain shortages and how it’s severely delaying short-term rental owners Why you should never fully drain a pool (unless you like paying $20,000+ in repairs!) Using speed to your advantage and making guests feel heard as soon as a problem arises Staying in contact with your team so you can solve problems smarter And So Much More!

Those who have built huge equity gains over the past few years now feel like they’re stuck at a crossroads.

You may recognize her name from episode 331, appropriately titled “10 Real Estate Deals on a $20K Waitress Salary,” which became one of the most popular BiggerPockets Real Estate Podcast episodes. If you haven’t heard of Ashley, here’s a quick rundown: As a teen mom, Ashley was working hard daily to provide for her kids. With only a $20K/year salary, she began buying rental properties, often in cash, in the Detroit area. The last time we chatted, Ashley had ten units. But now, things are very different. Ashley knew that ten units and $7,000/month in cash flow was life-changing, but wanted to go even bigger. Since then, she’s rapidly expanded her rental property empire, growing her portfolio by many multiples and expanding into other businesses like consulting and hard money lending. She’s even developed her own version of the BRRRR strategy called “reverse flipping,” which makes high interest rates a non-issue when trying to refinance out of your property. She gives some killer tips on keeping tenant turnover low, why paying taxes isn’t such a bad thing, and how betting on cities like Detroit can make you much wealthier. One surprising thing about Ashley is that she built the foundation of her portfolio on cash deals while making a below-poverty salary. So if you think money is the one thing stopping you from investing, Ashley will probably change your mind! In This Episode We Cover: Buying properties in cash and why leverage isn’t always the best move to make What to do once you’ve hit financial freedom and building generational wealth  Going slow to build a property portfolio fast and “portfolio architecture” Reducing tenant turnover and how Ashley kept 80% of her tenants over ten years! The “reverse flip” strategy and why you should be on the lookout for PILFs Investing even on a low salary and where cash flow can still be found And So Much More!

While novice investors are focused on cash flow only, veteran landlords focus on something worth much, much more. Thankfully, even if you’re just getting started on your investing journey, you don’t have to go through the hard work that experts like Dave Meyer and J Scott went through. Instead, you can hear their time-tested advice today, and grab their new book Real Estate by the Numbers!  J, a techie turned master flipper has written numerous books on estimating rehab costs, calculating real estate deals, and recession-proof investing. Dave, our VP of Data and Analytics and host of On the Market, has been head-down in housing market data for the past decade. These two real estate investing juggernauts combined their knowledge to write a book that lets every investor, no matter their skill level, find better deals, calculate profits smarter, and build wealth faster.  In this episode, we talk about calculating cash flow, ROI, and other metrics that may, or may not, matter as much as you’d think. You’ll hear how these two experts use much more than the numbers to define which deals are worth buying. After this episode, you may look at your portfolio differently, or even think about selling some of the properties you thought were “winners” before!  In This Episode We Cover: The math behind the real estate deal and which metrics matter more than most Calculating which properties work best for your portfolio  Defining your “buy box” and using it to filter through deals so you can build wealth faster Why your property’s ROI (return on investment) might be even better than you think How to start thinking like an investing expert and the lump sum vs. cash flow debate  Understanding the time value of money and how it’ll make you richer quicker  And So Much More!

Deals don’t make sense anymore, cash flow is becoming almost extinct, and those who could qualify just a year ago are barely making the cut. How could mortgage rates almost doubling over the past year make buying real estate possible, let alone profitable in 2022? David Greene, veteran real estate investor, says that now is the time to buy! Welcome back to another Episode of Seeing Greene, where David hits on some time-sensitive questions surrounding the world of real estate. We touch on private money lending, the housing market and interest rate updates, how to “gift” a down payment, real estate partnerships, goal setting, and who should stay away from house flipping. If you’re just starting your journey in real estate investing, this is the episode to listen to! Want to ask David a question?

Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can hop on a live Q&amp;A and get your question answered on the spot!

When someone thinks “I want to get rich in real estate,” they’re often not considering setting up a home for seniors, those in medical decline, or medical patients. Investors almost prematurely dismiss any idea of RAL homes (residential assisted living) if they have no medical background and no personal need to do it themselves. This can become a costly mistake, especially when the evidence adds up on why assisted living could be the most recession-proof real estate investment out there. Isabelle Guarino-Smith is one of the investors that decided to go down this path. Without any medical experience of her own, she led her family business to become a successful assisted living brand throughout the state of Arizona. When her grandmother needed care many states away, Isabelle’s father realized that building not only a better facility, but a more profitable portfolio, was a smart move to make. And this risk has paid off significantly, as Isabelle now takes home a five-figure monthly cash flow from each of these properties. She knows that the “silver tsunami” is coming in quickly and that capitalizing on this niche now could mean even great profits in the future. But, this isn’t all about the money for Isabelle and her team. She’s seen how much better care seniors can get in smaller facilities and that this type of investment doesn’t just pay itself back in profits, but in knowing that you’re making a difference in the lives of those who need it most. In This Episode We Cover: How to transition from residential real estate investor to assisted living specialist  The three types of senior housing facilities and the only one worth investing in The “silver tsunami” that’s on the way and how to capitalize on it before it’s too late Financing options for assisted living investments and how to raise capital Renovation tips, common costs, and how much you can expect to make on your first facility And So Much More!

Most investors see now as a time to take a step back, invest less, and hold their financial positions steady. But, are we approaching a 2009/2010-type scenario where home prices dramatically drop, and deals are easier to find than ever before? On this month’s BiggerNews, we bring in Kathy Fettke, nationwide real estate investing expert and On the Market expert guest, to give her take on upcoming opportunities. In a recession or correction, smart investors deploy their “defensive investing” techniques, allowing them to pick up steals, not just deals, and fold properties into their portfolio that can help float them during times of trouble. Even as an intense investor, Kathy adopts the “aggressively defensive” tactic, the same one Rich Dad Poor Dad author Robert Kiyosaki told her about back in 2008. Simply put, industry experts like Kathy aren’t thinking of selling—they’re focused on buying!  To wrap up, Dave, David, and Kathy give some practical tips on time management, and how to keep buying as you get busy. With only twenty-four hours in a day, these big-time investors still find ways to run business, record podcasts, and buy new deals, but only thanks to a system they’ve designed. Before you know it, you might be in too tight of a timeline to actively invest, so start implementing these tips now!

But, the great contractor shortage of 2020 and 2021 almost decimated BRRRR investors. Record high prices, dragged-out timelines, and the inability to rely on almost anyone to fix up houses brought this strategy close to extinction. But now, we’re seeing a second wind of BRRRR investing as contractors aren’t being stretched so thin and competition for real estate starts to slump. Welcome back to another episode of Seeing Greene, where your “I don’t seek validation, validation seeks me” host, David Greene, is back to answer your questions on anything related to real estate. In this episode, we talk about investing methods such as the BRRRR strategy, real estate syndication investing, becoming a real estate professional, and more. We’ll also touch on some deeper topics like why so many new real estate investors crave validation, how to know when to fire your property management company, and the medieval meaning of “racking your brain.” Want to ask David a question? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene. Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can hop on a live Q&amp;A and get your question answered on the spot! In This Episode We Cover: How less competition for contractors could make the BRRRR strategy much more viable in 2022 Real estate syndications vs. investing in your own deals (and how to know which is a better choice) Becoming a real estate professional to significantly lower your taxable income Refinancing a property even if you lack a W2 or don’t have consistent income The right way to find a mentor and taking the “apprenticeship” role instead of asking for advice When to switch property managers and questions to ask before you let them go And So Much More!

It may only take a couple of deals for you to create enough traction to quit your W2 or go full-time into investing. But what if you have a family and children to support? Surely there’s no way to hit quick financial independence with those responsibilities? If you’re still not persuaded, hear Zasha Smith’s story. Zasha was working sixty-hour weeks, sometimes every day of the week, as a civil engineer. She knew that continuing down this career path would lead to long days, even longer nights, and time away from her children. After a quick Google search on “how to get rich,” she stumbled upon real estate investing. After her first successful home flip and her first rental property purchase, she gave her resignation, and the rest is history. Now, she’s got a portfolio capable of providing her a financially free lifestyle, with ten units acquired in just three years. Mind you, this all happened during the events of 2020, meaning Zasha deserves even more credit! She’s currently using her wealth to give back to the community, with plans to build affordable housing throughout her home state of Hawaii. Her “give back, get ahead” mentality is surely working, and it’s something all real estate investors should try. In This Episode We Cover: When to quit your W2 and pursue full-time real estate investing Finding off-market deals and beating Brandon Turner in his own backyard Affordable housing and how you, the landlord, can help those who have limited resources Masterminds, real estate meetups, and other ways to quickly grow your investing network  Real estate partnerships and red flags that every investor must pay attention to Giving back to the community and mentoring others who are just getting started And So Much More!

If you’re like most real estate investors, you know that in 2022, it can feel like you're constantly getting nickeled and dimed over every aspect of your offer. The seller wants more money, a quicker closing, refuses to give seller concessions, and acts like their often outdated, structurally unsound property is worth as much as their neighbors' new construction down the street. How do you negotiate with these sellers to actually get the deal done at a price that won’t destroy your future profits? Or, maybe a better question to ask is, how do you find deals already on the market, with desperate sellers waiting to accept any offer that comes their way? What if you’re a brand new real estate investor, still looking for your first rental property? How do you get on the same wavelength as a tough seller? Jonathan Greene is known around the BiggerPockets forums as a millionaire mentor. He left his career as a criminal prosecutor to start profiting from investment properties. Now, he runs an agent team that has built seriously strong negotiation tactics, and Jonathan still invests heavily on the side. He’s walked away from more deals than he can count. But, he’s also won deals that other investors would have no chance at acquiring. Want to repeat how Jonathan did it? You’ll hear it all in this episode! In This Episode We Cover: Why “hard” negotiations don’t work in real estate and the fastest way to ruin a potential deal Defining your “buy box” and looking for much more than just cash flow The foolproof way to guarantee you'll make money on your investment property purchases Why rookies get stuck in analysis paralysis and how simply “seeing” a house will snap you out of it Becoming a great real estate negotiator and giving sellers offers that they can’t refuse The almost too easy way to find under-the-radar real estate deals on the MLS And So Much More!

But what if you’re a contractor, a business owner, or self-employed? What if you’ve already used up all your financeability and your DTI (debt-to-income ratio) is too high for lenders to take you seriously? What’s your next step? Fortunately, even if you’re feeling the crunch of difficult financing, you still have numerous ways to buy rental properties. You just need to know where to look! We’re back!

As a real estate investor, it can be a little hard to wrap your head around it. You lease a property, rent it out, and then…profit? That’s right! Without buying a rental property, dealing with maintenance or large-scale repairs, you too can make just as much money (if not more) than the landlord down the street without ever owning the property in the first place. It sounds like a dream, but in reality, you’ll need an airtight system and team to make it work. Thankfully, Jeff Iloulian has all that and more. Before 2014, Jeff was living as a lucrative lawyer, billing high by-the-minute rates and making money every second he worked. This was during the “wild west” of short-term rental investing, where mom-and-pop owned vacation rentals were starting to become a serious way to make passive income. Jeff initiated his portfolio with just one “lease arbitrage” unit and eventually ballooned his empire up to 150 rentals! Now, Jeff does more than just run his short-term rental portfolio. He runs the buying group HostGPO, helping link up short-term rental operators with vendors who can provide better, time-tested, industry-specific products. Not only that, Jeff manages numerous other vacation rentals, so he knows everything from furnishing to cleaning, check-out procedures, and more. He gives a furniture and furnishing masterclass in the second half of this interview where many of his tips could save you thousands over the lifetime of just one rental unit. In This Episode We Cover: Rental arbitrage and how any investor (no matter their budget) can use it to make passive income Breaking out of the “not enough time” matrix to start investing on a busy schedule Furnishing your short-term rental and why IKEA may not be the best bet for bed sheets Building your short-term rental dream team and how to manage a large-scale portfolio The mega-niche investing opportunity of renting soon-to-be destroyed homes  Leaving a lucrative career to invest in real estate and why it’s almost always worth it And So Much More!

So how are you showing your professionalism in meetings, negotiations, or presentations? Are you rolling in nervously with a pitch deck that looks like it was made by two middle-schoolers, sporting an unfitting suit and some cheap-looking picture of Hawaii as your background? Is that what multimillionaires want to see on a deal presentation? Will investors even take you seriously? There are a few keys to a perfect pitch, regardless of what you’re even pitching. Oren Klaff, author of Pitch Anything, has become a master at deal negotiations and capital raising. He’s seen what makes a prospective investor walk out of the room or end a video call early, and he’s here to make sure you’re not the person on the other end of that presentation. So what do you need to do to successfully sell or pitch anything? In part two of this second episode with Oren, we walk through the different types of brain stages a presentation attendee is in, how to bypass the brain, and the wrong way to design a pitch. Oren has seen it enough to know that the how you’re presenting information probably isn’t the right way. He gives some rapid-fire tips on immediately boosting your credibility, upping the stakes, and how to get investors, attendees, or anyone else on your side from the first sentence. In This Episode We Cover: Pitching to “dead air” and how to successfully sell anyone on a deal in the video conference-first world Bypassing the brain so investors and attendees hear what you have to say The wrong way to structure a pitch and why most people fail at building rapport Ending the pitch, escalating the tension, and raising the stakes for your attendees The million-dollar move that helped Rob raise seven figures in only a few days And So Much More!

In it, he gives a systematized way to take control of every meeting, negotiation, and deal on your terms without taking a submissive position. Oren has the expertise to back up his claims. As a world-renowned leader in sales, capital raising, and negotiation, he’s been in the meetings, flipped the script, and gotten deals done that most couldn’t even dream of. Now, he’s sharing his wisdom with you. Much of what Oren describes gets a bad rap in today’s world. The terms “alpha” or “in control” are subliminally thought of as violent or harsh, but in Oren’s context, they are completely accurate. In part one of this two-part episode, Oren gives you everything you need to take control of your deal, get negotiations done on the terms you want, and put opponents in the position for you both to succeed, instead of merely butting heads. But this advice isn’t just for the board room.

In it, he gives a systematized way to take control of every meeting, negotiation, and deal on your terms without taking a submissive position. Oren has the expertise to back up his claims. As a world-renowned leader in sales, capital raising, and negotiation, he’s been in the meetings, flipped the script, and gotten deals done that most couldn’t even dream of. Now, he’s sharing his wisdom with you. Much of what Oren describes gets a bad rap in today’s world. The terms “alpha” or “in control” are subliminally thought of as violent or harsh, but in Oren’s context, they are completely accurate. In part one of this two-part episode, Oren gives you everything you need to take control of your deal, get negotiations done on the terms you want, and put opponents in the position for you both to succeed, instead of merely butting heads. But this advice isn’t just for the board room. These key principles work in every conversation you’ll ever have, whether you're raising millions to close on an apartment complex investment or merely trying to get your kid to eat their vegetables. The way you pitch, frame, and control a conversation directly correlates to its outcome. And in real estate investing, this isn’t a skill you’ll want to be without. In This Episode We Cover: The alpha and beta dynamic and putting yourself in the alpha position in every negotiation The risk of not taking control and how giving someone else the lead could ruin your deal Shifting perspective and the “frame control” exercise that’ll bring anyone down (or up) to your level Putting your opponent or partner in an “emotional state” so they can see your point of view  Raising the stakes and how doing so will solidify any deal that needs to get done And So Much More!

It’s always about cash flow. “If the property doesn’t bring in a healthy amount of pure profit every month, there’s no point in buying it!” This sentiment could cost you hundreds of thousands, if not millions over the lifetime of your real estate investing career. Don’t get us wrong, cash flow is important, but focusing on this metric alone may lead to your downfall. Chris Lopez hopped off the “buy only for cash flow” bandwagon long ago, and he’s much richer for doing so. Chris has become successful quickly in the real estate game, which is doubly impressive if you look at his past business history. He didn’t start in real estate sales, investing, or anything of that nature—he was more interested in building content for other businesses he was pursuing. After realizing that rental property investing was the way to go, Chris took a hard pivot, repurposing the same skills he used in his businesses to work in real estate. Now, he’s got eight units of his own, passive investments he doesn't need to worry about, and a successful real estate brokerage situated in the real estate mecca of Denver, Colorado. He’s become the foremost expert on Denver real estate not because he’s done thousands of deals, but because he knows the area well enough to teach those who don’t. Chris talks about business building, mentorship, and a much better calculation than cash flow in this episode. In This Episode We Cover: Building a real estate business that not only makes you active but passive income SEO, content marketing, and using “lead magnets” to drastically increase your deal flow The wrong way to find a mentor and four simple steps to take to get the attention of top investors The world’s best business card and how it turns you from a novice into an expert How to reevaluate your real estate portfolio to ensure it’s making the most money possible And So Much More!

Unless you had millions in dry powder, ready to overpay for a huge apartment complex, there was a low chance you’d be making any money in the multifamily industry. This gave the big buyers an unfair advantage, while smaller investors struggled to put almost anything under contract. The tables have started to turn as interest rates rise, repricing becomes the norm, and multifamily buyers start fleeing the closing table. It’s now your time to shine, small-scale investors. As large buyers begin to fear a housing market crash, you can swoop up the spoils that could benefit you for years to come. But, before you do so, you’ll need to understand how exactly multifamily investing works. Back again on the show are Andrew Cushman and Matt Faircloth, two multifamily masters in their own rights. They’ve become real estate veterans after over a decade worth of investing experience. Now, they’re here to share some beginner steps and tips on how you can get into the world of multifamily real estate, regardless of your experience, knowledge, or bank account size. These steps are simplistic at a high level, but doing them correctly could help you beat out the competition for years to come. The only question is, are you ready to start? In This Episode We Cover: Why today’s “fearful” multifamily market is a great opportunity for new investors  Evaluating your goals, skillset, and advantages before you step into the multifamily market The biggest mistakes new investors make when choosing a real estate market How to get deals sent directly to you and build up a network of top-tier brokers Building your real estate dream team that’ll allow you to scale with far less headache Raising private capital and using other people’s money to grow your real estate empire  And So Much More!

For almost the entirety of Rob’s short-term rental investing career, he’s preached the good gospel about how small, mom-and-pop-owned vacation rentals are the way of the future. The secluded single-family rental, log cabin, or treehouse were some of Rob’s most impressive and profitable investments. But now, he’s taken a step in a whole different direction. Rob doubled his rental property portfolio almost overnight, going from fifteen units to thirty-five by purchasing a twenty-unit hotel/motel mix in beautiful Upstate New York. Without much experience running anything on that scale, Rob and his partners went to work trying to figure out how to turn this mess of a motel into a profitable, high-value vacation destination. He faced some serious hurdles, from canceling on guests to fixing a literal hole in the middle of the property, but found a way to make it work. Once the renovations are complete, Rob will walk away with an almost unbelievable amount of yearly cash flow, a seven-figure increase in equity, and a scalable system that will let him do these types of deals more often than he thought. Want to hear the nitty gritty so you can tackle something as lucrative as this? Sit back, relax, press play, and prepare for your next big property purchase!  In This Episode We Cover: Transitioning from single-family rentals to multifamily vacation rental investments  Hotel hurdles and what you should know before investing in a multi-unit short-term rental Big BRRRRs and how to revive a rental property that has serious deferred maintenance  How to find contractors when you’re in a low-population investing area The right way to transfer ownership after you’ve bought a not-so-straightforward property Seller financing and getting deals with lower interest rates and far more flexible lending And So Much More!

Even just the thought of cold calling is enough to make seasoned real estate investors start to sweat. The waiting, debating, and constant rejection can get to anyone. So why not take the stress out of a tense situation? Why not make cold calling a game? Luke Rotvold decided to do just this. As a new wholesaler, he was used to spending hours on the phone every day. He got so bored that he started playing video games while negotiating with sellers. Surprisingly, it didn’t distract him—it made finding deals far easier. Luke severely leveled up his cold calling skills during those eight-hour long Madden marathons, and eventually started making enough money to build his own team. But Luke didn’t want to start something that felt like a drag to the workers, employers, and everyone else in between. Instead, Luke built a lifestyle-first business, where everyone wins (and loses) together, and coming to work feels like an escape, not a prison sentence. The results speak for themselves as Luke and his team have been able to crush massive wholesaling, flipping, and investing goals. Luke has made hundreds of thousands on flips, tens of thousands cold calling, and now watches as his cascading cash flow rolls in from his buy and hold investments. He breaks down his four tips to gamify your real estate business so you, and your team, can build wealth together. In This Episode We Cover: Why cold calling is such a difficult skill to master and how making it fun will get your more deals Creating a company culture that outside employees will be envious of The four ways to gamify your real estate investing so you can enjoy getting more done Sharing the wins, and losses, with a team so everyone rises together  Incentivizing not only your employees but yourself by building powerful goals Partnering with those you work with so you can collectively build bigger portfolios  And So Much More!

After two years of rock-bottom interest rates, homebuyers and investors are getting a rude awakening with some of the biggest mortgage rate hikes in decades, used simply to slow down the economy’s rampant inflation. But where are we headed, and if interest rates go higher, is there a way that the everyday investor can still lock in a low payment? There’s no better person to ask than US Wholesale Mortgage’s Mat Ishbia. Mat has been running the US’s largest wholesale mortgage company for decades, so he knows the ins and outs of the industry better than anyone else. His company provides some of the lowest payments and fastest closings for residential and investor borrowers around the country. With all this background knowledge, where does Mat think that mortgage rates are headed by the end of 2022? Mat pulls out his wealth of knowledge to give investors just like you the best glimpse into the future on this month’s BiggerNews episode. Not only that, Mat walks through how every borrower can save a whopping $9,400 on their next mortgage by making one simple move, and why investors should work with a mortgage broker first, not a mortgage lender, when trying to find the best rates, service, and closing dates around. In This Episode We Cover: Why working with a mortgage broker gives borrowers better pricing and flexibility Interest rate predictions as we enter into the second half of 2022 Where to find the cheapest mortgage (regardless of interest rates) Housing market forecasts and whether or not the recession will hit homebuying DSCR loans and other investor-only loans that won’t require a W2  How interest rates are calculated by mortgage lenders and what happens behind the scenes And So Much More!

More people will take the passive road to wealth building, which is usually far slower, and much less efficient than the active path to wealth. The active investor takes time making calculated decisions that would scare almost every average investor. Flipping a house, renovating a rental, or buying a thirteen-unit apartment building may be a little too much for most people, but probably not too much for you. If you’re looking to fast-track your way to millionaire status, have the passive cash flow to float you in retirement, and live life on your schedule, then real estate investing is probably your chosen asset. The guests of today’s Seeing Greene episode prove this even with their quick questions. In this episode, David will answer questions on which investing strategy is best over the next ten years, whether to invest in stocks vs. real estate, how to start investing with as little as $5K and up to $100K, and how increasing your leverage can slingshot your net worth. Want to ask David a question? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene. Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can hop on a live Q&amp;A and get your question answered on the spot!  In This Episode We Cover: The 1031 exchange explained and how to turn one property into many  Single-family vs. multifamily real estate and which will make more in the next decade Real estate coaching and why it might not be as good of a career as most people think Stocks vs. real estate and which is better for the investor trying to build wealth now Paying off debt vs. investing in real estate and how to know which move is right for your specific circumstance How to start investing with as little as five-thousand dollars (even with no experience!)

Somewhere along the line, a buyer, seller, agent, or investor gives up. Either there’s not enough money, time, or patience left in the deal to get the property bought or sold. When real estate transactions drag out, you could get caught with months of holding time or thousands in inspection costs, only to have the deal drop out from under your feet. So, how do you revive a dead deal when everyone else has given up? Just ask Tyler and Trevor Sarter. Tyler and Trevor are based in Detroit, dealing with lots of international investors who want a piece of the cash-flowing pie. They work primarily as wholesalers, but also flip houses, and advise/consult their investors from abroad. They have a “do what you need to do to get the deal done” type mentality, which to no surprise has served them very well in their business. When other investors give up, Tyler and Trevor are waiting in the wings to get the property closed. As two former basketball players, they understand what working as a team means and how everyone needs to play their part in order to become champions. They’re not as profit-oriented as they are solution-oriented, making sure everything gets done no matter what comes their way. Because of this, they’ve built a successful real estate business, better yet as two brothers. In This Episode We Cover: How to find buyers, sellers, and deals as a wholesaler, flipper, and investor Keeping the deal “alive” and why over-communicating is necessary to start investing Staying organized and building a fine-tuned machine that will run even when things go wrong How to prepare yourself as a rookie real estate investor for your first deal  Using real estate to help friends and family deal with tough situations (while you also make a profit!)

With rising equity and asset prices, more lenders have come out of the woodwork, and an equal amount of investors have sprouted up to match the need. But taking on private money isn’t a light decision, although most investors think of it that way. Doing a deal the wrong way could put your reputation in jeopardy and rack up an expensive bill you’ll need to pay back. Before you accept (or lend) private money, there are a few things you should know. But you don’t have to go through trial and error to figure them out! Back on part four of this private money series is Amy Mahjoory, investor and private money expert. Amy goes into the nitty-gritty of private money, from debating debt vs. equity to the risk of raising capital, protecting your investors, and the type of interest rates you can charge and returns you can expect. If you haven’t raised or lent private money before, we recommend watching the entirety of this four-part series, as it answers crucial questions that rookies can often overlook. We also follow up with some Q&amp;As from the comment section about how to pay a private money lender back, why coaching is seen as scammy, and the three documents you’ll need to do a private money deal. In This Episode We Cover: Raising debt vs. equity for your real estate deal and which one comes with more risk Building rapport with lenders and never accepting “random” investments  The most common private money red flags for both lenders and investors The three documents you’ll need to accept a private money loan  Finding “silent partners” who will fund your deal without overriding your decisions The best investment opportunities of 2022 in multiple different niches And So Much More!

Striking up a ten-minute conversation could be enough to find your next round of private money. At least that’s how it worked out for Josiah. Josiah is a small business owner, running a pool cleaning business while building up a small portfolio of rental properties. He sees dozens of new faces every day, and those new faces directly translate into new opportunities. After hearing our past episodes with Amy Mahjoory, Josiah took some of her tips and began pitching his deals to everyone he encountered. Now, he’s got some private money lenders lined up for his new multi-unit, four and a-half acre, short-term rental real estate deal. We told you—raising private money is a lot easier than most people think! But we’re not just talking to Josiah today. We also have Amy back on the show for part three of her private money masterclass. This time, Amy talks about building the “credibility pieces” that give private money lenders confidence in you, your team, and your deal.

Striking up a ten-minute conversation could be enough to find your next round of private money. At least that’s how it worked out for Josiah. Josiah is a small business owner, running a pool cleaning business while building up a small portfolio of rental properties. He sees dozens of new faces every day, and those new faces directly translate into new opportunities. After hearing our past episodes with Amy Mahjoory, Josiah took some of her tips and began pitching his deals to everyone he encountered. Now, he’s got some private money lenders lined up for his new multi-unit, four and a-half acre, short-term rental real estate deal. We told you—raising private money is a lot easier than most people think! But we’re not just talking to Josiah today. We also have Amy back on the show for part three of her private money masterclass. This time, Amy talks about building the “credibility pieces” that give private money lenders confidence in you, your team, and your deal. These range from presentations to deal reviews, calculators, and more. These private money tools took decades to build and Amy still uses them today!

Even if you’re not a home flipper, it’s hard to not get sucked into the glitz and glamor of watching Tarek El Moussa and his team rip out old fixtures from the 1950s and replace them with brand new, beautifully designed upgrades. Tarek is one of the most recognized home flippers in the world and has inspired thousands of others to start building wealth through real estate. He’s an inspiration to all of us, but how did he get to such a peak point? Tarek wasn’t a great flipper right out the gate. He electrocuted and burned himself on his first deal, but that wasn’t enough to deter him. Before the great recession, Tarek was living large, making forty-thousand dollars a month in his early twenties. But when the crash came, he had to sell everything and start from scratch. After attending a real estate seminar he caught the flipping bug and realized he needed to invest in real estate full-time. After a successful first flip, he pitched the idea of Flip or Flop to different television networks, with HGTV finally giving him a chance. He describes the first season of Flip or Flop as working eighteen-hour days, constantly stressing, and forcing himself to build a business, not just a side-hustle. This allowed him to delegate by buying more flips and building wealth faster. Funnily enough, his main piece of advice for flippers isn’t to try and make more money—it’s to start losing it instead. In This Episode We Cover: Tarek’s five house flipping tips that anyone can use to successfully start flipping The single biggest mistake that most flippers (and investors) make Flipping while filming and how to pitch a TV show as a complete novice Why finding real estate deals is the most important thing a house flipper can do Knowing your market and the key metrics to look for when investigating an area Designing a renovation that will beat out the comps in your neighborhood  And So Much More!

If you haven’t heard of Alex before, prepare to have your mind blown wide open. He’s the poster child for entrepreneurialism on the internet, founding multiple eight and nine-figure businesses, including his current venture that does over $150M per year in revenue. He’s one of the wisest founders and CEOs out there, not because he does so much, but because he knows when to do less. One of Alex’s first successes, Gym Launch, proved how repeatable building multi-million dollar businesses can be. He quickly ramped up revenue, grew a team, and began cash-flowing seven figures. But, this was just the beginning. Over the past decade, Alex has advised numerous start-ups and established businesses, blowing revenue and sales figures out of the water by introducing easily-repeatable systems into the mix There aren’t many people who think like Alex is in his industry, or in any industry, to be fair. But, you don’t need to be just like Alex to use his teachings in real life. In this episode, Alex lays out the scaling system that will make you seven figures before you know it. He also talks about the one investment every entrepreneur should make—one that almost guarantees success, regardless of the field you're in.

In This Episode We Cover: Alex Hormozi’s journey from complete rookie to $150M in cash flow  How to scale your business from low revenue to seven-figures and beyond  The “weak link” every entrepreneur should focus on strengthening immediately  Hiring the “stallions” that can run your business better than you’ve ever dreamt  The “prescriptions of activation” that lead to massive success, with far less confusion  Why just being “good enough” can lead to more success than people think  And So Much More!

Most people think that you have to be miserable or make very little money to want to quit a job, but even high earners still find themselves struggling to attend their nine-to-fives. Pat Hiban is the perfect example. He quit during his prime even as he was making a high income and after owning his own company. Regardless of all the respect, responsibility, and ability to make phenomenal income, it just wasn't enough for Pat. You may be feeling the same. Maybe you’re daydreaming about multifamily investing as you sit at work, or picturing the perfect vacation rental property on your commute. Whatever your reason, quitting might be the best move for you to make, but only if it’s the right time. Don’t worry if you’re struggling with decision fatigue, Pat and fellow quitter Tim Rhode just came out with their newest book, The Quitter’s Manifesto: Quit a Job You Hate for the Work You Love. In it, Pat and Tim give stories and tools that will help you on your path to building wealth while leaving a job that you hate. The resources you’ll find in this book are exactly what our very own David Greene used when deciding to quit his highly lucrative, but mentally draining job as a police officer. If you’ve been sitting on the fence, not knowing the next step to take in your career, this book may be exactly what you need. In This Episode We Cover: How to quit your job and start investing in real estate full-time The five factors of a soul-sucking job and how to evaluate whether or not it’s time to jump ship Finding the "quitter’s trapeze” that can help you transition from W-2 to self-employed worker Building your team of quitters who will hold you accountable and take you to the next level of your career What it looks like when you’re ready to quit and how to emotionally prepare for the impact And So Much More!

It doesn’t matter if you’re an agent, investor, flipper, or mortgage broker. The more prospective buyers and sellers, the better. But what happens when you finally get those leads? Maybe you’re cold calling, meeting for coffee, or linking up at the property. What do you say to let leads know that you’re the best agent or investor around and that they can trust you to get the deal done? Juliet Lalouel has a simple, fool-proof answer for you. Juliet operates out of Hawaii, one of the nation's hottest real estate markets. She’s done everything from working in restaurants to running a bike business in her garage, to even becoming the go-to matchmaker for musicians that want to invest in real estate. She’s worn a lot of hats and even decided to leave one of the top teams in the state to go solo as an investor agent. When she realized all the leads were coming from her own personal network, she decided to make the jump on her own. Now, she’s actively flipping, buying, and selling homes for not only herself but her investor clients throughout the islands. She’s been able to grow a respectable network, one which many investors dream of having, and she did all of this through tweaking her “tonality.” If you want to hear why this small change led to such big results, be sure to listen all the way to the end of this episode. In This Episode We Cover: How to get more real estate leads as an agent, investor, or broker Why “tonality” is such an important part of your pitch when selling yourself to clients Building your investor network and gaining the trust of the biggest players in your area Why every investor or agent should reassess their emotional intelligence (and how to improve it) The five-second pitch to earn a lead’s trust as soon as they pick up the phone Why no type of experience is unimportant when it comes to building real estate skills  And So Much More!

He’s arguably the best stock trader of all time—preaching the fundamentals of investing in equities, something that most modern-day investors seem to forget. We’re seeing the same thing in the real estate industry. With a runup of home prices and stock prices over the past two years, almost every investing strategy has worked. But, as prices begin to plummet, overconfident investors are starting to see the errors of their ways and that making money isn’t always easy.

He’s arguably the best stock trader of all time—preaching the fundamentals of investing in equities, something that most modern-day investors seem to forget. We’re seeing the same thing in the real estate industry. With a runup of home prices and stock prices over the past two years, almost every investing strategy has worked. But, as prices begin to plummet, overconfident investors are starting to see the errors of their ways and that making money isn’t always easy. So in today’s risky environment, we have to ask: what would Warren (Buffett) do? Someone who’s been asking that question for years is Trey Lockerbie. He’s co-host of We Study Billionaires, where he interviews some of the best and brightest investors on planet earth. Trey has lived an interesting life.

The beauty of the BRRRR strategy is that it takes less time and money to get properties to cash flow with baked-in appreciation. But what if you were to ramp up the BRRRR method, so instead of doing a BRRRR every year, you did it 125 times a year. Sounds a little insane, right? Meet the man behind the madness, Chad Beeman, who has (and this is not an exaggeration) bought and BRRRRed fifty rental properties in the past six months. This is a staggering amount of properties to buy in such a short amount of time. The craziest part? Chad is planning on purchasing another seventy properties over the next six months! So how is he able to buy so many properties, scale so quickly, and do so without losing his balance? Chad walks through his small team, system, and thought process that helps him stay so successful. He’s had some blunders in the past (like spending $30K rehabbing the wrong house) but has thought of them as “tuition” when investing in real estate. Thanks to these mistakes, he’s been able to grow faster, build more than a million dollars worth of appreciation, and shoot well past financial freedom in his real estate investing journey. In This Episode We Cover: Why the BRRRR method is perfect for those who are strapped for cash but want to build wealth How the current housing market is affecting BRRRR deals and the art of making multiple offers Becoming an “accidental millionaire” and how real estate wealth grows in the background Building a small team, learning to outsource, and developing the “Who Not How” mentality  Real estate partnerships and how they can allow you to buy more properties using less money Why you should always double-check you’re at the right house BEFORE doing a renovation And So Much More!

These 3D printed homes can be printed in as little as two days, with a crew of only two workers, using much cheaper material than traditional builders use. Does this mean that a wave of ultra-affordable homes is about to hit the market, or is this still just a futuristic theory that may never come to fruition? We’re back with this month’s BiggerNews, as we dive into the world of 3D printed houses, the future of building costs, and how the housing crisis could be quickly solved with printable and profitable homes. Zachary Mannheimer, CEO of Alquist 3D, is here to share his knowledge on how the construction industry is about to be severely disrupted. To Zachary, 3D printed homes could help millions of Americans who struggle to find housing, as well as make housing affordable for everyday workers. Zachary’s team designs and builds 3D printed homes, and while it may seem a bit far off to most investors, Zachary thinks we’re only a few short years away from a takeover in how housing is built. With massive cost savings for developers, immediately accessible parts for maintenance, and some of the strongest materials used in construction, 3D printed houses aren’t just a replacement for traditional homes, they’re a complete upgrade. In This Episode We Cover: How does 3D printing work and the new way to build residential homes The housing inventory shortage and how 3D printed houses could be the solution Huge cost savings and how developers could build homes for far cheaper Comparing 3D printed houses to traditional homes and which will win in the long-run Whether cheaper homes could help or hurt landlords and real estate investors  Creating jobs, trade schools, and technical programs around 3D printing And So Much More!

To the everyday landlord, home flipper, or once-in-a-while investor, private lending seems completely foreign. Why would you lend money when you can put it into your deals? And even if you wanted to, wouldn’t it take millions, or at least a few hundred thousand dollars to get started? Surprisingly, private money lending is available to more people than you think, and it could be your next way to make truly passive income. Alex Breshears and Beth Johnson were neither millionaires nor active investors when they started lending private money. Over time, they realized that they had grown relationships with active real estate investors, many of which always needed funding for the next deal. While swinging hammers and painting baseboards may sound fun to active BRRRRers or flippers, to Alex and Beth, the passive income that came in from private money lending was even better. They’re now so ingrained in the world of private money lending that they’ve written the newest BiggerPockets book, Lend to Live, where they talk about how to build “hassle-free passive income” by lending private money. In this episode, they go over how a new investor can start lending, what to look out for in a lender when you need money for deals, and how even with a few thousand dollars, you too can start building truly passive income streams. In This Episode We Cover: How any investor can start lending money for a substantial profit Why private lending has become more popular as investment funding becomes limited Hard money vs. private money and why you should never confuse the two What to look for in a private money lender and how to vet them before you invest Protecting your money as a private lender and what you need to do to secure a return Where private money lenders can find investors who are looking to invest  And So Much More!

To the everyday landlord, home flipper, or once-in-a-while investor, private lending seems completely foreign. Why would you lend money when you can put it into your deals? And even if you wanted to, wouldn’t it take millions, or at least a few hundred thousand dollars to get started? Surprisingly, private money lending is available to more people than you think, and it could be your next way to make truly passive income. Alex Breshears and Beth Johnson were neither millionaires nor active investors when they started lending private money. Over time, they realized that they had grown relationships with active real estate investors, many of which always needed funding for the next deal. While swinging hammers and painting baseboards may sound fun to active BRRRRers or flippers, to Alex and Beth, the passive income that came in from private money lending was even better. They’re now so ingrained in the world of private money lending that they’ve written the newest BiggerPockets book, Lend to Live, where they talk about how to build “hassle-free passive income” by lending private money. In this episode, they go over how a new investor can start lending, what to look out for in a lender when you need money for deals, and how even with a few thousand dollars, you too can start building truly passive income streams. In This Episode We Cover: How any investor can start lending money for a substantial profit Why private lending has become more popular as investment funding becomes limited Hard money vs. private money and why you should never confuse the two What to look for in a private money lender and how to vet them before you invest Protecting your money as a private lender and what you need to do to secure a return Where private money lenders can find investors who are looking to invest  And So Much More!

Some of you may have seen Christian before on our YouTube channel where he talks about interest rates, loan products, and other future financing projections. But today, Christian gets to talk about how he not only built a large rental portfolio but did so while running multiple businesses. Even as full-time workers, many Americans feel like they don’t have enough time in the day to relax, let alone invest. So how does someone with a jam-packed schedule, a lot of pressure, and a mountain of responsibilities find time to not only buy one rental but fifteen rental properties in a year? To Christian, it took a bit of trial and error, but the answer is simply making your time as efficient as humanly possible. He’s been able to heavily invest, start and run one of the top mortgage brokerages in the country, work as an agent, and provide insurance to clients as well. He drills down into what business owners and investors alike need to do to reclaim their time, and once it’s theirs, use it to the highest and best use. He also drops some financing pro tips that may help you lower the down payment you need or close with a better-than-average interest rate! In This Episode We Cover: Turning your referrals into full-blown businesses that can build your wealth Why investors should always choose brokers, lenders, and agents who invest themselves  The velocity of time and why focusing on “return on time” beats ROI when investing Creative financing and loan programs that can save you serious cash at closing Partnering up to not only buy real estate but build businesses faster How to get three times more work done in the same amount of time And So Much More!

The life of a real estate investor isn’t glamorous, but it leads to generational wealth, time freedom, and the ability to do what you want, when you want, with who you want. The first step to becoming a real estate investor is buying your first real estate deal. This first step is where ninety-nine percent of people stop, but it’s where you will start. Dave Meyer, VP of Data and Analytics and host of On The Market, has built a financial freedom-permitting property portfolio over the last decade. He doesn’t have thousands of units, but even with his medium-sized portfolio, he’s been able to travel the world, live abroad, and continuously build wealth. He’s here to teach you exactly how to do the same by buying your first, second, or third real estate deal in the next 365 days! If you’re able to do so, you will see your life start to change before your eyes. Money will be easier to find, deals will come your way, and passive income streams will be dug in your direction. If you’re able to buy your first (or next) deal like Dave describes, put systems in place for future purchases, and slowly build a team around you, your dream rental property portfolio won’t be too far away. In This Episode We Cover: The 3 “Ds” of real estate investing and how to get over their obstacles Why every smart investor continues to buy even in murky housing markets like today Building the “LAPS” funnel that will send real estate deals your way How to analyze a rental property for free using the BiggerPockets rental property calculator The different types of ways you can buy real estate with no money down  Why the first three real estate deals matter more than most people think And So Much More!

No 2 AM phone calls, no listings, no showings, and no sales. With REITs (real estate investment trusts) you simply click a button, buy a share in the company, and wait for your passive income (dividends) to flow into your account. Seems pretty sweet right? Matt Argersinger from The Motley Fool agrees. Matt isn’t your typical stock investor. He’s owned multiple rental properties and has even house hacked and put in some serious sweat equity. He knows that leverage and forced appreciation are huge wealth builders in the realm of real estate, but still chooses to invest in REITs instead of rentals. Why? Matt is focused more on creating passive income—as in TRULY passive income—no tenant surprises or maintenance calls to make. Matt wants to research, invest, and let his net worth grow, all while still receiving real estate-generated cash flow. Maybe you’re skeptical. How can passive investing be so easy? If you’re brand new to REITs, Matt does a phenomenal job at explaining what they are, how they work, which types to buy, and what you can do to get started investing today. Regardless of your knowledge of the stock market, if you like income-producing real estate, this episode is for you. In This Episode We Cover: What are REITs (real estate investment trusts) and how they work Why buy REITs instead of rentals, plus the benefits of both Cheap REITs that are becoming undervalued as the stock market crashes  Mortgage vs. equity REITs and why higher cash flow could mean higher risk The dangers of day trading and how long investors should hold onto REITs The key metrics any investor needs to research before investing in a REIT And So Much More!

Interest rates are rising, home prices have skyrocketed, and rent can’t keep pace with this market. Brian Davila saw this in his portfolio and knew he needed to do something about it. Buying “traditional” rental properties wasn’t going to cut it, especially when the monthly cash flow was a measly few hundred dollars. How many houses would it take to grant him a life of financial freedom? To most people, Brian Davila looks spoiled for choice. He’s a young guy, doing forty or so flips per year, bringing in big active and passive income checks. If you think that Brian can’t relate to the average investor, you’re wrong. Brain immigrated to the United States at just six years old, dropped out of high school in the ninth grade, and had his first child at nineteen. He was working at Las Vegas day clubs making ten dollars an hour before he decided to become a real estate agent. After cold calling hundreds of sellers a week, Brian was able to grow his clientele and eventually become a top agent. The only problem? He had no time for his family. He made the switch to start flipping and buying long-term rentals but had to pivot once again to a different strategy that would make him more cash flow even as home prices rise.

They think private money is only reserved for those with a Rolodex full of rich or well-off business people, investors, or relatives. Using this line of thinking, most real estate investors will simply buy a deal, save up for years, and do it again. If you want to get on the fast track to a respectable real estate portfolio—private money is the way to go. But you don’t have to take our word for it. Amy Mahjoory, private money expert, is back on part two of her financing and funding masterclass. Amy has grown her real estate portfolio quickly, thanks to private money. On just her second deal she was able to pay for a significant portion of the property using her private lender. Now, she urges investors, no matter their experience level, to do the same. This time, Amy walks through five strategies that any investor can use to connect with private money lenders today. These strategies are simple—so simple that almost anyone can use them and find success quickly. They don’t require lots of money, time, or experience, but you need to be aware of them next time you’re in a perfect situation to make your pitch. Try these five strategies today, and you may see your inbox flooded with private money offers!  In This Episode We Cover Why raising private money is easy when you’ve built the right systems and strategies Referrals and why word-of-mouth is one of the most powerful marketing tactics Connecting with non-real estate-related professionals to raise money How one small “investment” in attending an event can open you up to dozens of lenders at once Building an online presence so you’re known, liked, and trusted by a large community  Hosting and attending meetups, no matter the industry or your experience, to find private money And So Much More!

When you’re buying your first rental property, you can easily use your cash savings or a conventional loan to close on the property. But, on your second, third, fourth, or one-hundredth deal, finding the money (or financing) to get the deal done may start to get a little difficult. So how do you come up with the money to buy more rental properties, house flips, or commercial real estate, WITHOUT asking your parents, grandma, or friends for cash? Amy Mahjoory has raised $20M from private money lenders, none of which are related to her (she makes sure of that). Think of Amy as a capital connector, getting to know as many existing, or potential, private money lenders as possible. We know what you’re thinking, “private money lending sounds complicated, don’t only big investors do that?” Think of a private money lender as anyone who has money, isn’t doing much with it, and wants to make more of it. These lenders could be your taxi driver, your dentist, or maybe a friend of a friend. Private money is all around you, and if financing or cash reserves is what’s stopping you from doing more deals, we urge you to take the four steps that Amy outlines today. There’s a good chance you already know a private money lender! In This Episode We Cover: What is private money lending and why it’s so different from traditional financing Building a reputation that’ll turn a stranger into a trusted lender quickly The “four-second power pitch” that’ll land you lenders immediately How to make your lending process legit and the documentation needed to do so Addressing investor fear and how to make lenders feel confident in you The key to open, honest, and powerful communication when talking to any potential lender And So Much More!

Whether you dream of owning five, ten, or two hundred rental units, there is a way to get there—you just need to know what it is. It took Sam Primm seven years to figure out the smartest way to invest in real estate, and now he’s here to share it with you! Sam, like many people, didn’t hate his nine-to-five job but knew that being on some else's schedule wasn’t bearable for the rest of his life. Sam partnered up flipping a few houses here, buying a few rental units there, and wholesaling for some extra cash. Three years into his real estate side business, Sam took the leap and went full-time into investing. Since then, he’s been able to buy over $20M in real estate, totaling his portfolio to a whopping $40M. This may seem unachievable to the average real estate investor, but Sam makes it clear that he isn’t special and is just a regular guy buying rentals. Through his real estate tenure, he’s been able to define exactly what the average investor needs to do to scale their real estate portfolio. His “SCALE” system isn’t complex, but it will help you double, triple, or quadruple the amount of real estate you own in a very short amount of time. Itching to go full-time into investing like Sam did? Tune into this episode, he’ll show you exactly how he did it. In This Episode We Cover: What to know BEFORE you quit your job to go full-time into real estate investing The “SCALE” system that allows you to grow your real estate portfolio faster  The best way to meet private money lenders, investing experts, and future partners Getting your spouse on board the real estate investing train Why fear is the most important feeling for new real estate investors Using social media to grow your network so you can scale faster And So Much More!

Mom and pop landlords—used to buying single-family houses or duplexes—may see apartment buildings as far outside their reach. And this, for the most part, has been true over the past two years. With high competition, equally high prices, and syndication deals popping off every other second, regular investors haven’t been able to invest in large multifamily real estate—until now. Andrew Cushman and Matt Faircloth started as solo-investors like most of us. But, over the past decade, they’ve both grown large multifamily portfolios, and know exactly how hard it's been over the past two years. They’re finally starting to see some cracks in the institutional armor of multifamily, allowing small-time investors to get deals while everyone else is fleeing from high interest rates and an oncoming economic downturn. If you’ve been waiting to level up your investment portfolio, make big equity gains, and bring in massive passive income, then this is the episode for you. And, if you feel like you’re too new to invest, the BiggerPockets Multifamily Bootcamp, hosted by Matt Faircloth, will give you everything you need to go from onlooker to investor! In This Episode We Cover: Multifamily “tailwinds” that are making apartment investing easier in 2022 and 2023 The hidden opportunity of multifamily that most investors don’t pay attention to How creativity became crucial in the real estate industry and using it to score better deals Which multifamily properties are safe from an economic downturn and inflation  The seven ways that you can mitigate multifamily risk when investing How to start building your multifamily strategy today so deals flow to you as competition thins And So Much More!

Cash flow grants you, the real estate investor, enough leeway to pay for your mortgage and taxes, and save up a healthy safety reserve for future renovations. For new real estate investors, cash flow is probably the single most important metric they look at, but it’s not always a great predictor of a good investment. If you want to truly build wealth, generate passive income, and retire early (or rich), start looking at the metrics David Greene is talking about. Welcome back to another episode of Seeing Greene. Our cash flow creator, expert agent, and investor with decades of experience, David Greene, is back to answer your most asked questions. In this episode, we’re touching on topics like when to focus less on work and focus more on real estate investing, why low cash flow isn’t always a bad thing, what happens when an appraisal misses the mark, creatively financing home renovations, and how much every investor should have in safety reserves.  Want to ask David a question? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene. Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can hop on a live Q&amp;A and get your question answered on the spot!  In This Episode We Cover: Why buying real estate in sprints is normal and when to lay off investing The many metrics outside of cash flow that point to a great rental property What to do when an appraisal comes back low and how to challenge an appraisal  The different ways to finance a home renovation and which will pave the way for more passive income How much to keep in safety reserves if you’re buying your first rental property  And So Much More!

Cash flow grants you, the real estate investor, enough leeway to pay for your mortgage and taxes, and save up a healthy safety reserve for future renovations. For new real estate investors, cash flow is probably the single most important metric they look at, but it’s not always a great predictor of a good investment. If you want to truly build wealth, generate passive income, and retire early (or rich), start looking at the metrics David Greene is talking about. Welcome back to another episode of Seeing Greene. Our cash flow creator, expert agent, and investor with decades of experience, David Greene, is back to answer your most asked questions. In this episode, we’re touching on topics like when to focus less on work and focus more on real estate investing, why low cash flow isn’t always a bad thing, what happens when an appraisal misses the mark, creatively financing home renovations, and how much every investor should have in safety reserves.  Want to ask David a question?

When the economy begins to shift, and a recession is looming, multifamily real estate tends to drop in price. But, at the same time, more renters need a place to stay, or more importantly, an affordable place to stay, making multifamily apartments their go-to option. If apartment investing has ever interested you before, Jake Stenziano and Gino Barbaro make a strong argument why now may be the perfect time to get into the industry. If you’re feeling deja vu, don’t worry, Jake and Gino have been on the BiggerPockets Podcast multiple times before. Each time they come on they bring new lessons, new deals, and a lot more units under their belt. Only a decade or so ago, Jake and Gino were busting their humps working at jobs and businesses that didn’t fulfill them. It took them a year and a half to buy their first deal, and now, they’re sitting on $175M worth of multifamily. That’s quite a lot of deals in just a decade. Jake and Gino drop some gems in this episode, specifically on why 2022 may be a smart time to start investing, how to develop your “buy right” criteria, and preparing your exit strategies so you can build wealth, not just get rich once. They’ve learned a lot of multifamily investing lessons the hard way, so next time you’re presented with a killer deal, you don’t have to double down on their mistakes. In This Episode We Cover: Why you DON’T need to raise outside money to tackle big multifamily deals How to hire the right people and get employees invested in your properties (literally) The “buy right” framework and three pillars of real estate that every investor must understand Why exit strategies are the most crucial part of investing and how to define yours Managing properties the right way and how good property management can make or break a deal The “conveyor belt” acquisition system that will fly deals your way (even when you’re not working) And So Much More!

To most Americans, it seems like there is some big loophole that only the mega-wealthy know about, leaving average workers strapped with a large tax bill. Are the ultra-wealthy cheating the tax code, or are they onto something that everyday Americans simply don’t know about? Tom Wheelwright, author of Tax-Free Wealth and Rich Dad’s (Robert Kiyosaki) CPA is here to tell you how to take advantage of these big tax deductions that mystify small-time investors. If you’re already investing in real estate, you’ll know that the tax deductions can be plentiful. You get mortgage interest, depreciation, maintenance, and insurance write-offs. But, even bigger than those, are bonus depreciation and cost segregation, which aren’t complicated tax strategies and can help almost any investor reduce their tax bill significantly. So what can an average investor like you do to get started saving on taxes? Tom walks through the 2022 tax deductions that are decreasing this year, which to take advantage of immediately, how to find the right CPA for you, and which write-offs you may be missing. These tips could reduce your taxes by a significant amount, freeing up much more of your capital for future real estate deals! In This Episode We Cover: The disappearing tax deductions that every investor should take advantage of How the wealthy avoid taxes by buying real estate and getting into debt Renting vs. buying and which makes more sense in 2022 as affordability plummets Using cost segregation and bonus depreciation to wipe out your tax bill How to work with the government, instead of against it, to build wealth faster  The best 2022 real estate tax strategies that small or large real estate investors can implement And So Much More!

Not only has he written one of the most successful real estate investing books ever published (The Book on Rental Property Investing), but he also pioneered the real estate podcasting, social media, and blogging space. Funny to think that only a decade or so ago, this massively successful capital raiser, business founder, and CEO was painting rental properties, just trying to quit his soul-sucking job. So how did Brandon do this so quickly, and what’s going on in the brain (and under the beard) of one of the most successful real estate investors on the planet? Surprisingly, Brandon doesn’t have some secret formula, world-changing analogy, or crystal ball. He simply did what he said he would do—look for deals consistently, make offers whenever he could, and close so he could move on to the next. If this sounds familiar to your situation, but you’re struggling to find success, you may find that his system is a little bit different from yours. Brandon gives valuable insight into the “machine-building” he’s doing over at Open Door Capital, how he’s successfully growing his personal brand, and why real estate investing success should never be a surprise. If you’re a new listener to the show, it won’t be long before you realize why Brandon Turner was (and still is) one of the most beloved voices for building wealth.  In This Episode We Cover: The four levels of entrepreneurialism and how to become the “architect” of your own life Building a personal brand and finding confidence when creating content The skills you need to grow a business and become the CEO The five-point “viral formula” Brandon has used to raise millions of dollars What it takes to be successful and how to create a machine that will find real estate deals for you And So Much More!

If you haven’t done these yet, but are strongly considering leaving your job soon, Henry Washington and Rob Abasolo may advise you to wait it out a bit longer. Quitting your job is a big decision, especially if your family relies on the income that you’re bringing in. The good news is, that if you’re prepared, you can walk away making much more than you did at your W2. But, if you aren't, you could simply be taking a breather in between jobs, instead of building a life you love and ruling your schedule. Henry and Rob both have eerily similar quitting stories. They both quit during the same month of the same year, making the same salary all while building a real estate investment portfolio in the background. While Henry is more of a multifamily investing man, Rob has taken the short-term rental route to build his wealth. Both men have left the cushy healthcare-provided and retirement-matching lifestyles to build something much bigger not only for themselves but their families and employees. If you’ve wondered “when should I quit my job” or “is now the right time to go full-time into real estate investing?” then this episode is a prerequisite for you. Henry and Rob go over the four things you need to know BEFORE you quit, things to be aware of as a full-time entrepreneur, how to handle taxes and healthcare, and some actionable tips for when you’re finally ready to take the plunge into full-time investing. In This Episode We Cover: Why quitting a high-paying job is probably worth it in the long-run Spousal approval when quitting and why it’s mandatory before you start doing your own thing How much should you have in safety reserves when you quit The “work-life balance” myth and what a day in the life of an entrepreneur really looks like Changing how you invest after you say goodbye to consistent income Mapping out potential scenarios so you know what to expect on the other side of employment And So Much More!

Some media outlets will tell you the sky is falling, real estate is on the edge of a cliff, and the whole world is turning upside down. Meanwhile, investors who made it out alive during the great recession see an oncoming housing correction as an opportunity, not a warning sign. Ever since we saw wild home appreciation in late 2020 and beyond, everyday investors have been asking: when is our time up? David Greene, real estate investing expert (also agent, author, and podcast host), knows that people will get hurt if an economic crash does happen. But, he also knows that investors who have kept their expenses lean, saved when they could, and taken care of their assets, will probably ride the tide just fine. In this episode of Seeing Greene, David will answer one of the most asked questions: where do we go from here? He’ll also touch on whether or not to give up earnest money in a bad deal, when to replace big systems like an HVAC that is on its last legs, how to calculate ARV, and why adjustable-rate mortgages could spell disaster in 2022. Want to ask David a question? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene. Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can hop on a live Q&amp;A and get your question answered on the spot! In This Episode We Cover: What will happen to real estate if the US economy enters a recession Whether or not short-term rentals and vacation rentals are at risk  How to calculate ARV (after repair value) and get estimates without breaking the bank The best exit strategies to have when investing in real estate How much in emergency reserves should you have when buying a rental Adjustable-rate mortgages vs. fixed-rate mortgages and which wins in 2022 And So Much More!

Turnkey real estate is marketed as a way for real estate investors to buy a rehabbed property, often with tenants and management in place, leaving them with just rent checks to collect. One company, Rent To Retirement, has become one of the most popular places to find turnkey investment properties—and for a good reason. Behind the helm is Zach Lemaster, former optometrist, and current real estate investor. After going through eight years of school, Zach was left with six figures in student loan debt and a job that required him to be on-site for the majority of his waking hours. Like most new real estate investors, Zach had hit a breaking point and realized he needed something else that could provide him income, without the time commitment. After shelling out a large sum on a wholesaling course, Zach began using his assignment fee profits and salary from his job to buy rental properties. Every year he would buy more and more rentals, allowing him to finally scale into what he calls “turnkey commercial” (triple net) properties that give him sizable rent checks without any of the management headaches. Zach has a real estate investing path worth repeating, and he explains how he did all of it in this episode. In This Episode We Cover: How to use wholesaling to make extra cash to invest in real estate The dos and don’ts of long-distance real estate investing (don’t make Zach’s mistake) When to reinvest rental property profits so you can retire even sooner The biggest challenges you’ll face when building a real estate portfolio  Turnkey rentals and why they’re a great option for busy investors The importance of a great property manager and how a bad one can ruin your deals And So Much More!

Many rental property investors get into real estate for this reason alone. And it makes sense—rental property write-offs are not only common in the world of real estate investing but can be very lucrative in almost eliminating your yearly tax burden. So what happens when you feel like you’ve maxed out your real estate tax benefits? Is there a way to pump out even more tax advantages from the same property? We’re back again with another Live Takes episode, where our hosts, David Greene and Henry Washington, do their best to answer the BiggerPockets community’s investing inquiries. Joining us are four investors each at different stages of their journeys. These investors ask about how to reduce self-employment tax, finding a mentor when you’re brand new to the investing game, what happens when partners disagree on where and what to invest in, and how to maximize depreciation on a cash-flowing property. Do you have a question you’d love to ask David? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene. Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can jump on a live Q&amp;A and get your question answered on the spot! In This Episode We Cover: How real estate professional status can greatly reduce your tax burden (if you qualify) Why smart investors look at their income before buying their next property  The most valuable thing a new investor can bring to a mentor How to know when to pivot investing strategies and the bright side of “shiny object syndrome” What to do when you and an investing partner can’t reach a compromise  Building and buying depreciation so you can keep more of your cash flow And So Much More!

Most people assume that the standard down payment amount, 20% down, is the acceptable average when buying a rental property or a primary residence. But this isn’t always true, even for real estate investors. Many investors will spend years saving up just a single down payment amount, only to later realize that they could have bought multiple rental properties faster if they would have done less down. So before you put a big chunk of change into your next rental, listen up. David Greene is back with another episode of Seeing Greene where he takes a multitude of questions from new and small real estate investors. There is an answer for everyone in this episode with topics covering down payment amounts, investing in US real estate while living abroad, new real estate agent tips, how to finance ADUs (accessory dwelling units), and retiring yourself (or your parents) with real estate investing! Want to ask David a question? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene. Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can hop on a live Q&amp;A and get your question answered on the spot! In This Episode We Cover: What type of rental property should you buy as your first real estate deal How to dominate your market as a brand new agent and meet buyers and sellers As a foreign investor, how can you get around the 35% down payment requirement  How to finance an ADU to increase cash flow on your rental property Should you invest with your family if you haven’t done a deal yet? Buying rental properties without having to save up a 20% down payment  And So Much More!

Most people assume that the standard down payment amount, 20% down, is the acceptable average when buying a rental property or a primary residence. But this isn’t always true, even for real estate investors. Many investors will spend years saving up just a single down payment amount, only to later realize that they could have bought multiple rental properties faster if they would have done less down. So before you put a big chunk of change into your next rental, listen up. David Greene is back with another episode of Seeing Greene where he takes a multitude of questions from new and small real estate investors. There is an answer for everyone in this episode with topics covering down payment amounts, investing in US real estate while living abroad, new real estate agent tips, how to finance ADUs (accessory dwelling units), and retiring yourself (or your parents) with real estate investing! Want to ask David a question? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene. Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can hop on a live Q&amp;A and get your question answered on the spot! In This Episode We Cover: What type of rental property should you buy as your first real estate deal How to dominate your market as a brand new agent and meet buyers and sellers As a foreign investor, how can you get around the 35% down payment requirement  How to finance an ADU to increase cash flow on your rental property Should you invest with your family if you haven’t done a deal yet? Buying rental properties without having to save up a 20% down payment  And So Much More!

Some would call it almost impossible to try and build a huge real estate portfolio without borrowing money or partnering up to take down bigger properties. Sofia Castro, along with her husband, not only built a multifamily portfolio using their own money, but did so starting with a severe disadvantage. Both Sofia and her husband were high school dropouts, living without much money, and practically no experience. A local entrepreneur took Sofia and her husband under his wing, teaching them both how to become leasing brokers. From there, they started building their entrepreneurial endeavor, eventually selling their business a couple of decades later for a whopping billion dollars. With cash in hand and real estate experience under their belt, they began buying apartment complexes to flip them as condos. Once the recession hit, Sofia knew this was the wrong business to be in, so she pivoted heavily towards multifamily rental investing, specifically investing in “core deals”. Now, she has a streamlined process for finding deals, buying deals, and screening tenants. She gives some out-of-the-box, but highly useful tips on tenant screening, property management, and why “value-add” real estate isn’t all it’s chopped up to be. In This Episode We Cover: “Core deals” explained and why they often beat value-add properties What are cap rates and why understanding them is crucial when buying multifamily Condo conversions and the risk of flipping during downtimes in the economy Tenant screening tips that will get you the best tenants who pay on time, every month The right way to do property management and why you shouldn’t immediately outsource How to buy in the right real estate markets, plus the metrics Sofia looks for when investing And So Much More!

There’s no double-talk, bribing, or harshness necessary to get what you want. If you know what the other side wants (which you probably do already), you’ll most likely have enough to negotiate successfully. So why aren't most people winning negotiations? Well, when everyone is buying or selling to get the most they can, it’s often the people who create wins for their opponents that come out on top. David Greene would know this. He’s one of the top real estate agents in the country and is the host of the biggest real estate podcast around (that’s us!). His new book, SKILL: A Top-Producing Agent’s Guide to Earning Unlimited Income, is more than a handbook for real estate agents. This book also details how almost anyone investing in, buying, or selling real estate can win negotiations easily. David spends time today outlining the seven negotiation tactics he has used in the past to lock down deals for buyers, sellers, and himself. You’ll hear real-world examples of when David and co-host Rob used these tactics in their own investments plus exactly how to formulate each of these tactics so you can ultimately get what you want. In This Episode We Cover: Price anchoring and how adjusting a baseline can secure a quick win early in a negotiation Staying likable, yet stern, in a negotiation so the opponents want you to win Persuading opponents that your desired outcome is actually in their best interest  Redefining the value you bring and showcasing it in an undeniable way  Building a negotiation scarecrow that becomes the enemy (so you don’t!) Reigning in FOMO when working with buyers or sellers in a hot housing market  And So Much More!

But to others, it could be a cash-tastrophe. We can already hear real estate investors yelling out “always use leverage”, “what about the low interest rates!?”, and “you can scale so much quicker!” Like many real estate investors, David Greene knows the power of leverage and loans to buy rental properties faster. But, it’s safe to say that for some people, paying off a property or buying a home in cash may be a much smarter move. Welcome back to another episode of Seeing Greene where David answers questions directly from BiggerPockets listeners and viewers on YouTube. This time around, we have some seriously useful questions being answered for the new investor. These questions range from when to take out a loan and when to pay off a property, how to get started in real estate in your early twenties, how to build more cash flow as your expenses increase, how to get a HELOC on your rental property, and how to raise money for a down payment. All these questions (and more) are coming up! Want to ask David a question? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene. Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can hop on a live Q&amp;A and get your question answered on the spot! In This Episode We Cover: Weighing the pros and cons of leverage when investing in real estate How to start investing in real estate without a ton of money or experience  Why it’s so difficult to get HELOCs (home equity lines of credit) on rental properties Real estate bookkeeping and how to keep all your accounts up to date How to finance your down payments so you can buy rental properties faster Getting preapproved for a mortgage even if you have a 1099 income  And So Much More!

He’s participated in real estate investing for decades and has become wildly successful thanks to his tenacity, relationship-building skills, and creativity when getting deals done. But, funnily enough, Ed Mylett isn’t most well known for his real estate investor prowess—he’s known for his mindset-shifting, world-changing ideas when it comes to personal development, discipline, and entrepreneurship. In Ed’s newest book, The Power of One More, he talks about the small tweak that anyone can make to become many multiples more successful. In essence, every extra push-up, cold call, and hug to your spouse or child is the exact thing that puts you above the rest. It’s not about putting in the effort, it’s about putting in more effort than the average person would. This not only applies heavily to real estate investing but to any goal we set. David and Rob get the opportunity to talk to Ed about his book as well as his sentiment towards today’s housing market and what deals he’s doing in the background. You may be surprised to hear it, but Ed is incredibly bullish on real estate investing for a few good reasons. He gives a simple yet incredibly practical explanation for why this year is surprisingly the best time to get into real estate investing in a long time. In This Episode We Cover: How the power of “one more” can change everything about your life  Why committing to your standards is arguably more important than goal setting  How collective psychology is driving the market to new places (and how to escape its grasp!) Why investors must start “evaluating their income streams” instead of just their properties The “most crazy deal” Ed has ever done and why it’ll be a first of its kind Building the confidence you need to accomplish your dreams and create a life you love And So Much More!

Surprisingly, much more than you would think. As the year progresses and the housing market stays hot, more real estate investors are having trouble finding cash-flowing deals. At the same time, the tenants in those properties are seeing the price of their gas, groceries, and rent shoot up. Are tenants going to be left with enough money to pay rent every month? And if not, what will everyday landlords do to keep their properties? These questions are best left to someone who not only has experience owning and managing rental properties but helping others do the same. Laurence Jankelow, co-founder of Avail, one of the leading property management software picks, is here to talk about the future of the DIY landlord, especially in 2022. Laurence has seen the trends on who’s increasing rent, who’s not, and how many cash-flowing deals are on the table.  Laurence, David, and Dave all take time to debate what the next year will look like for landlords and renters alike. If there is a recession around the corner, how can investors keep themselves in a strong position? What is the first expense new landlords should cut if their cash flow starts to dwindle?

As the year progresses and the housing market stays hot, more real estate investors are having trouble finding cash-flowing deals. At the same time, the tenants in those properties are seeing the price of their gas, groceries, and rent shoot up. Are tenants going to be left with enough money to pay rent every month? And if not, what will everyday landlords do to keep their properties? These questions are best left to someone who not only has experience owning and managing rental properties but helping others do the same. Laurence Jankelow, co-founder of Avail, one of the leading property management software picks, is here to talk about the future of the DIY landlord, especially in 2022. Laurence has seen the trends on who’s increasing rent, who’s not, and how many cash-flowing deals are on the table.  Laurence, David, and Dave all take time to debate what the next year will look like for landlords and renters alike. If there is a recession around the corner, how can investors keep themselves in a strong position? What is the first expense new landlords should cut if their cash flow starts to dwindle? And what real estate trends are we seeing in today’s market that you can get ahead of? All these questions (and more) are answered in this month’s BiggerNews episode!  In This Episode We Cover: Are we heading towards a recession, and if so, how do we prepare?

In one way or another, a new investor realizes that there is more to life than just their job. They save up, get educated, and buy their first rental property. Those who do well repeat the process, slowly growing their portfolio to double-digit numbers. But, at a certain point, they realize they can’t go any further with the system they’ve set up for themselves. What should they do? Rich Fettke, co-founder of Real Wealth, and author of The Wise Investor, fell into real estate accidentally. Over the years he’s had to fine-tune his system, scale his team, and learn how to become not only a successful investor but a successful leader. Now, he runs one of the premier real estate investing websites on the internet, manages three syndications per year, and still individually invests in rental properties. Thanks to his track record of more than two decades, he knows what does and doesn’t work when trying to scale your real estate portfolio. Most importantly, Rich knows who to hire onto your team so you can continue to build wealth, without having to do all the work yourself. In This Episode We Cover: Where new investors should look to purchase their first investment property  How to scale from single-family rental properties to syndication deals Why most investors “trap” themselves without a scalable team Turning challenges into adventure and shutting down the “inner gremlin” Asking yourself, “what pisses me off?” when defining your company’s core values And So Much More!

Ryan is a leading figure in the world of real estate investing not only in the Las Vegas, Nevada area but throughout the interwebs. He got started flipping homes and eventually scaled his business up to 100 flips per year! Since then he’s branched off into multiple different real estate-related business ventures, but his newest one may be the most revolutionary. During the lockdowns of 2020, Ryan began to research blockchain, cryptocurrency, and decentralized finance. He saw the way that the world was moving and realized it would only be a short amount of time until real estate transactions were regularly done on the blockchain. This dip into DeFi piqued his interest, so he began researching, investing, and putting more of his time into virtual and digital real estate research. Ryan makes a strong case as to why most real estate services will move over to a blockchain model, and those that don’t will be left in the dust. Most of what Ryan preaches isn’t just speculation—it’s happening right now in the real world. If you want to get ahead of the curve, or just finally understand what an NFT is, Ryan is the guy to listen to. In This Episode We Cover: Starting businesses that help scale and optimize your rental property portfolio How blockchain could end the title company industry and what investors need to know Raising private capital and selling properties with decentralized finance  NFTs and using them to split shares/ownership in a real estate syndication  Combining digital and physical real estate investments for maximum diversification  What a blockchain beginner can do to get their start in the virtual investing world  And So Much More!

First, you’ll need to know the price of the asset, then the cash flow, followed by expenses, and finally the structure. Because buying real estate is perceived as “simpler” than buying a business, most investors decide to go the real estate route—but they could be missing out. Codie Sanchez saw this opportunity when she was working in venture capital and decided to try out the business buying route herself, just on a smaller scale. Codie can be perceived as your classic “value-add” investor, which much of the real estate investing community can relate to. She finds a business that has a strong foundation but lacks the tech or marketing to grow faster or increase its profits. When a business has a strong underlying value, just like a rental property, it’s easier than most people think to “renovate” it into something that will sell for far higher. Codie stresses that buying businesses isn’t so different from buying real estate.

First, you’ll need to know the price of the asset, then the cash flow, followed by expenses, and finally the structure. Because buying real estate is perceived as “simpler” than buying a business, most investors decide to go the real estate route—but they could be missing out. Codie Sanchez saw this opportunity when she was working in venture capital and decided to try out the business buying route herself, just on a smaller scale. Codie can be perceived as your classic “value-add” investor, which much of the real estate investing community can relate to. She finds a business that has a strong foundation but lacks the tech or marketing to grow faster or increase its profits. When a business has a strong underlying value, just like a rental property, it’s easier than most people think to “renovate” it into something that will sell for far higher. Codie stresses that buying businesses isn’t so different from buying real estate. She also categorizes which businesses real estate investors should buy if they’re looking to maximize their cash flow and minimize their expenses. With some help from Codie, you could be relying on much more than just rent checks soon!  In This Episode We Cover What a “value-add business” looks like and how to find undervalued businesses  Evaluating and analyzing a business purchase and which key metrics to calculate before making an offer Buying off-market businesses and why most business owners never consider selling (until you ask) The three questions every investor MUST ask before buying a business  Buying instead of building and how trying to build a business can cost you much more than just money Becoming the business owner, not the operator, and outsourcing everything you can  And So Much More!

At first, you don’t know any of the verbiage, then you start learning the tools, and finally, after some repetition (and help from those around you), you can become a real estate (or jiu-jitsu/weight lifting/yoga) expert! Think of David Greene and Rob Abasolo as your spotters for today’s deep dive into buying a rental property. Their advice will help you lift the weight, even if you feel uneasy at times! David and Rob, unsurprisingly, started out like everyone else in the real estate investing space. They had no deals, no experience, and not a lot of money. But, over the past decade, both have become experts in their specific investing niches—through trial and a lot of error. Now, they bring you more than a decade worth of combined experience so you can stop hesitating and start taking action. If 2022 is the year for you to start building wealth and pave your path to financial freedom, then this is THE episode to listen to. David and Rob discuss the five most common rookie real estate mistakes and six bite-sized steps that will allow you, no matter your experience, to buy your first, or next, real estate deal. They’ll also give a full walkthrough on how to analyze a real estate deal, plus a special bonus that will allow you to hyper-accelerate your growth in the real estate investing world! In This Episode We Cover The two biggest hurdles that stop people from ever investing in real estate The wealth-building “pillars” that all investors must know before they start investing  Five common mistakes that almost every real estate rookie will face Why new investors should “commit” before they start educating themselves  Using your network around you to find real estate leads, financing, and contractors How to analyze a deal for free using the BiggerPockets Rental Calculator  And So Much More!

After just one fix and flip, many investors find themselves hooked, leaving their stable jobs for the profit (and rush) or finishing another flip. This happened quickly to Jason Pritchard, flipper and rental property investor in central California. Jason was working at a sales job he hated and after watching one of the many famous HGTV flipping shows, thought, “Hey, I could do that!” He gave it a try, using his life savings and retirement funds available to him. It was a success, so he decided to scale up. One flip grew to a few, and now, Jason's team does over seventy-five flips and wholesale deals per year! This incredible volume didn’t happen overnight—it took Jason seven years to go from W2 worker to one of the best flippers in the state! And it’s not just flipping Jason is after. He’s been able to grow a massive rental property portfolio, some eighty-three units, at the same time! You’re probably wondering how Jason did this so fast. Worry not, as he details every step from how he finds leads, builds a team, pays the taxman, and even compensates employees. If you’re trying to get your foot into the flipping door, Jason’s story should inspire you to do almost exactly what he did.  In This Episode We Cover Using the skills from your job and translating them to make real estate riches  Building a business and the most important step most flippers/wholesalers skip Funding your flips and why paying taxes might be a good thing when it comes to financing How to find employees that will grow with your business, even if you feel like you “can’t” hire just yet Private money lenders and using them to scale your business even bigger  And So Much More!

If you’re joining us today for this episode of Seeing Greene, you’ll hear answers to all these questions and more! David takes some time out of his day to sit down and answer arguably the most hard-hitting, specific questions we’ve had to date on an episode of Seeing Greene.

What are the common housing market crash indicators that real estate investors should look out for? And why does David only invest with the short-term rental king, Rob Abasolo? If you’re joining us today for this episode of Seeing Greene, you’ll hear answers to all these questions and more! David takes some time out of his day to sit down and answer arguably the most hard-hitting, specific questions we’ve had to date on an episode of Seeing Greene. These questions include how to find synergy between your career and your investing goals, how to not cross the line when working with multiple agents, the best ways to purchase real estate with no (or low) money down, and why David rarely partners up on real estate deals.  Some of these questions may hit home for you, as most of today’s guests are either rookie real estate investors or young professionals looking to get their start in investing.  Do you have a question you’d love to ask David? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene.

In simple terms, Profit First allowed small business owners to take home bigger paychecks, reinvest in their business, and scale with ease, oftentimes while doing even less. The age-old adage of “do more work, make more money” was turned on its head by simple accounting practices. In reality, the business owners who were doing the most work were making the least, while business owners who truly knew their numbers worked less, made more, and had more money to invest. After reading Profit First, David Richter knew that this same system could be applied to real estate investing. David grew a rental portfolio himself by learning from a local mentor. This mentor had a growing team, a scaling business, but was making less and less with every deal done. As David investigated more real estate investors’ businesses, he found that this wasn’t an isolated case. Most investors were making low wages, working far more than at the jobs they had quit, and had inflated businesses, to say the least. With some simple accounting practices, which David describes in this episode, real estate investors can turn their business into Profit First powerhouses using very simple steps. If you’ve been feeling burnout from a barrage of deals, but aren’t seeing the profit you’ve worked so hard for, you’ll want to pick up David’s new book, Profit First for Real Estate Investing! In This Episode We Cover The Profit First formula and why most real estate investors calculate profit all wrong The biggest mistake that real estate rookies make when starting their businesses  Why more deals doesn’t automatically equal more money in real estate The rockstar team member that can make or break your business The “golden trio” of accounts that every investor should have set up Redefining the “pay yourself first” method of making money  And So Much More!

If you’re Andrew Cushman of Vantage Point Acquisitions, you’d probably argue that although multifamily has a bit more complexity than single-family rentals, it’s still, by all means, profitable for the everyday investor. In the early 2000s, Andrew didn’t know anything about pro formas, apartment underwriting, or the best type of mulch to use on large-scale landscaping. Now, more than a decade later, Andrew has been able to lead his team in acquiring, syndicating, and repositioning over 2,500 multifamily units. He’s here with David Greene to answer live questions surrounding anything and everything related to multifamily investing. He gives stellar takes on the current state of the market, how rising interest rates will affect multifamily investing over the next few years, and the best way to increase your ROI (return on investment) on a multifamily acquisition. You don’t need to be a large-scale apartment investor to take away some golden nuggets from this episode. Even if you’ve never thought of investing in multifamily, Andrew frames multifamily in a way that’ll have you wondering, “could I buy that apartment down the street?”  In This Episode We Cover The five most important factors to understand when looking at a multifamily deal  Multifamily debt and equity, plus how they dramatically differ from single family rentals How to use pro forma calculations when underwriting a deal and protecting yourself from overinflated profit numbers Whether or not today’s rising interest rates will cause a sell-off of multifamily properties The easiest improvements that will dramatically boost your ROI on a multifamily property What rookie investors get wrong about finding good deals in today’s market  And So Much More!

But, as the housing market stays red hot, it can be a struggle for both new and old investors to know where to look for their next cash flow or appreciation play.

Depending on who you ask, the number of rental properties can differ dramatically. A young investor may be looking to scale their portfolio quickly, eyeing ten, fifteen, or even one-hundred units. But, for a veteran real estate investor, who may already have a three or four-figure portfolio, the optimal rental unit count could be none at all—they may purely want passive income. Christian Osgood knows this all too well, and it’s how he’s grown a seventy-one-unit portfolio in such a short amount of time. As half of a dynamic investing duo, Christian and his partner Cody Davis know that the first place to look for a deal is within someone’s goals. Unlike most off-market deal hunters, Christian and Cody don’t blatantly ask a seller if they’re willing to part ways with their property. They do something much different and a bit unorthodox.  Christian and Cody have grown a massive multifamily portfolio in an impressive amount of time. Christian walks through the reasons why this partnership works, how they divvy up their roles, and why new investors should learn to love new problems, not cower in fear over potential pit-stops on their wealth-building journey.  In This Episode We Cover The “fish hauling and shipbuilding” of a perfect real estate partnership  Why entrepreneurs and investors alike should search out new problems to solve Financing large deals using OPM (other people’s money) and raising capital the right way How to find any off-market property owner simply by using Google Maps The biggest mistake you can make when raising money from private investors  Relationship marketing and how it can open you up to phenomenal real estate deals  And So Much More!

It’s a housing market bubble! It’s a relatively normal and stable housing market! Two of these statements might make you excited, anxious, or hopeful, while one simply makes you yawn. For years, we’ve heard numerous news outlets, forecasters, and housing authorities tell us that the next housing crash is right around the corner, only for home prices to skyrocket, interest rates to rise, and demand to stay red-hot. If you want to know if a housing market crash is coming, Rick Sharga, Executive Vice President at ATTOM, a leading provider of nationwide property data, is the person to talk to.

Two of these statements might make you excited, anxious, or hopeful, while one simply makes you yawn. For years, we’ve heard numerous news outlets, forecasters, and housing authorities tell us that the next housing crash is right around the corner, only for home prices to skyrocket, interest rates to rise, and demand to stay red-hot. If you want to know if a housing market crash is coming, Rick Sharga, Executive Vice President at ATTOM, a leading provider of nationwide property data, is the person to talk to. His entire job is based on finding and figuring out the data behind housing market movements, which he then presents to field leaders who are trying to make better buying, selling, and lending decisions. Rick is an industry vet and was around during the mid-2000s housing market crash, the great recession, the foreclosure crisis, and everything that followed.

Even veteran landlords tend to look at ROI as the sole metric that decides whether or not something is a “deal”.

As a real estate rookie, people tell you that the safest way to invest is to get good at one thing while keeping a distance from doing deals outside your comfort zone. While this type of advice isn’t wrong for everyone, it may miss the mark for some. Investors like Marjorie Patton have found ways to dramatically diversify themselves in the world of real estate, without their losing shirts. Marjorie is the head of sales for a financial technology firm by day and a real estate investor, house hacker, flipper, and private money lender by night. With some rather unexpected renovation costs on her first property (and with no safety reserve), Marjorie was forced to learn real estate investing on the fly. Fast forward to today, Marjorie has a seven-door portfolio in the expensive Denver, Colorado area. She’s grown quickly and has seen healthy profits, but has no need to quit her W2. Instead, she’s going to creatively parlay any deal that comes across her desk so she can build wealth while continuing to work somewhere she loves. In This Episode We Cover: Why diversifying in real estate isn’t such a bad idea, plus how to prepare to do different deals Using the concepts you know in everyday life to build a real estate portfolio  The benefits of being “scared” when doing deals and building confidence through mistakes When the right time to quit your W2 is and why you don’t have to succumb to the “financial freedom” pressures Flipping homes, lending private money, and investing in deals with partners House hacking an expensive property while keeping your cost of living low And So Much More!

Everyone knows what it takes to become successful: hard work, grit, tenacity, and (usually) some form of intelligence. But with so many people (real estate investors specifically) working hard, day in and day out, why aren’t we seeing a plethora of unbelievably successful individuals? It turns out, the problem isn’t within the system of building wealth, but the individual. Jason Drees, mindset coach and author of Do the Impossible, has seen numerous individuals come to him confused, doubtful, and wanting to do more. Within a matter of years or even months, these individuals poised on success attain things that would take most people many lifetimes. So what’s the difference between a massively successful investor and a moderately successful one? In today’s show, Jason breaks down the alchemy behind building a business, a life you love, and massive wealth. He even takes a break to coach David and Rob on their future business plans, uncovering some roadblocks and new paths that they never even knew existed. If you’ve been stuck in analysis paralysis, or simply have a goal to get to fast, this is the episode to not only listen to but take notes and review so you can grow as well. In This Episode We Cover: Why 95% of real estate investors aren’t aiming high enough (and how it’s hurting them) Evolving your mindset after hitting a goal, no matter how small Hitting unknown goals and looking for accomplishments that excite you Using your emotion to navigate success and listening to your internal guidance Walking the path to greatness instead of settling for success How to “Frame” your goals, plus a live example with David and Rob And So Much More!

But as the government began upping the incentives around this type of real estate investing, more tax-savvy investors started to pay attention. You may have heard of opportunity zones before, but you probably don’t know how much of a heavy hitter they are in the realm of tax reduction.

While David may be a master of BRRRR budgets, schedules, and rehabs, Rob isn’t as familiar with doing full-on buy, rehab, rent, refinance, and repeat rentals. To not only help out Rob but the BiggerPockets audience as a whole, David does a full walkthrough on his latest BRRRR. This hillside property situated in David’s native San Francisco Bay Area has huge potential to become a cash-flowing, equity-increasing deal. David is turning this large home into multiple smaller units that will rent out to A-class tenants and should net him a six-figure equity boost simply by doing these cash-flow-first renovations. David walks through exactly how to find BRRRR properties, telltale signs of a good (or bad) BRRRR deal, how to use the BiggerPockets BRRRR calculator, funding options for your BRRRR (from David's broker!), writing up a contractor scope of work (SOW), and how to build cash flow when there isn’t any to be found. You’ll also hear how David had a surprise run-in with the cops when walking this property. Action, excitement, and lots of equity are all coming up in this episode! In This Episode We Cover: The first signs that a property may be a great BRRRR deal  Using the BiggerPockets BRRRR calculator to evaluate deals and raise private capital Financing options you have when funding (and rehabbing) a BRRRR Contractor bids and BRRRR budgets (even if you don’t have rehab experience) Before photos and David’s exact conversion plan to turn a single property into a cash-flowing multifamily  The huge wealth-building benefits of getting creative when finding value-add real estate And So Much More!

Thanks to big names in the mobile home park space (like BiggerPockets’ own Brandon Turner), the mobile home investing game has become one of the hottest commodities in the world of real estate investing. But it must take a huge jump to go from investing in single-family rentals to double-digit-unit parks, right? Today’s guest, Amanda Cruise, is here to tell you that bigger doesn’t always mean more challenging. She actually got out of single-family rental investing due to the non-stop headaches of dealing with contractors, property managers, and tenant maintenance problems. She started doing “Lonnie Deals” where she would seller-finance mobile homes to local buyers. Soon, after enough success, she moved on to tackling entire mobile home parks! But how did Amanda beat out the competition when the mobile home park space is so hot? Thankfully, Amanda shares her three top tips on getting around institutional investors so you can purchase cash-flowing mobile home parks, without the headaches of syndicating or raising vast amounts of capital. In This Episode We Cover: “Lonnie Deals” and seller financing mobile homes for profit Why changing title on a mobile home is far easier than on a traditional home Finding motivated sellers and how to slide under the radar of institutional investors Scaling your team and the “must-have” roles when buying mobile home parks The not-so-secret way to get a list of mobile home park owners in your area The true “value-add” opportunities to look for in a mobile home park And So Much More!

From a novice’s point of view, LLCs seem to provide everything you would need?—anonymity, simple tax filing statuses, and legal protection. But, an LLC in reality isn’t as airtight as most real estate investors think. And the worst time to learn about the limitations of an LLC is during a lawsuit, where your wealth (and sanity) is at risk. To stop you from guessing when it comes to asset protection, we’ve brought on our go-to expert and heavy hitter asset protection lawyer, Brian T. Bradley, Esq. Not only is Brian well versed in the realm of asset protection, but he’s also helped numerous clients protect their real estate wealth, making him the perfect person to ask about LLCs, limited partnerships, trusts, and more. Brian walks through the different types of legal “layering” that real estate investors can set up to protect themselves from lawsuits and angry creditors. He defines exactly how each type of real estate investor should set up their assets as their net worth expands, and what to do BEFORE you get served with a lawsuit. While Brian may not know your personal situation, he does speak with years of experience serving high-net-worth investor clients and can relay their mistakes (so you don’t make them too). In This Episode We Cover: What is asset protection and why is it crucial for real estate investors in particular The “layers” of legal protection that real estate investors must have What an LLC really protects you from and why it may be different than what you think “Piercing the veil” and why most investors need to go a step beyond LLCs Limited partnerships and trusts that give you the best asset protection Financing hiccups when keeping your rental properties in trusts And So Much More!

As soon as you increase the rent on an income property, inflation comes right in to eat some of that gain. So in today’s borderline hyperinflationary environment, is cash flow still coming out on top? A better question to ask may be, what happens in five, ten, or twenty years? Will inflation completely erode your financial freedom dreams? Or will cash flow match (or beat) this destructive force. This isn’t just a question that impacts real estate investors—it affects almost every individual working within today’s economy. In today’s episode of Seeing Greene, David goes deep into this question (and others) so you, the investors, can have a better understanding of our economy as a whole. You’ll also hear topics like whether or not you can transfer title on an FHA loan, what to do when bidding wars push prices well above market comparables, when to cosign and when to ask for a cosigner, and what every investor in their twenties should start doing today. Heard a topic that you wanted more explanation on? Want to ask David a question you’ve never heard before? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene.

As soon as you increase the rent on an income property, inflation comes right in to eat some of that gain. So in today’s borderline hyperinflationary environment, is cash flow still coming out on top? A better question to ask may be, what happens in five, ten, or twenty years? Will inflation completely erode your financial freedom dreams? Or will cash flow match (or beat) this destructive force. This isn’t just a question that impacts real estate investors—it affects almost every individual working within today’s economy. In today’s episode of Seeing Greene, David goes deep into this question (and others) so you, the investors, can have a better understanding of our economy as a whole. You’ll also hear topics like whether or not you can transfer title on an FHA loan, what to do when bidding wars push prices well above market comparables, when to cosign and when to ask for a cosigner, and what every investor in their twenties should start doing today. Heard a topic that you wanted more explanation on? Want to ask David a question you’ve never heard before? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene.

For the most part, many real estate investors and agents look at wholesalers as deceptive, hard to read, and for the most part just looking to make a quick buck. While this may be true for many new wholesalers, it's far from the truth for Jamil Damji. If anything, Jamil wants to put an end to inexperienced, and often financially dangerous wholesaling. You could say Jamil was made to be a wholesaler. He had hustle, cold calling skills, and the will to succeed after being rejected from medical school simply due to his age. He set up a website-building business and got the hang of cold-calling quite quickly. After overhearing a discussion about a real estate deal between his partner and his partner’s father, Jamil decided to take his sales skills and turn them into something a bit more profitable. He made a phone call to a local property owner, secured a deal for his partner, and walked away with a $47,000 assignment fee. Now, Jamil runs one of the most respected wholesaling companies in the United States. He’s set up an “everyone wins” style of wholesaling where sellers, buyers, and intermediaries in between all get paid fair prices while incentivizing each party to do what’s best for the other. This is a brand new concept in the field of wholesaling and one that Jamil wants to see flourish throughout the industry. If you want to learn how Jamil and his team do sixty to eighty deals a month, all while building a loyal customer base, this is the place to be. In This Episode We Cover: How wholesaling works and why so many new investors start with it The best types of listings to call to find motivated sellers plus where to build your buyers list Why illegalizing (or at least licensing) wholesaling would be favorable for the industry How wholesalers can work with agents to build each other’s businesses faster The biggest mistake wholesalers make when trying to assign contracts to buyers Building a “win-win” system so everyone in the transaction becomes a repeat customer And So Much More!

We all saw this during the 2007 subprime mortgage crisis as overleveraged homeowners saw their properties foreclosed on and later sold to investors who had cash on hand. We’re currently experiencing dramatic demand coupled with low inventory, so are we at the end of the housing market cycle, ready for a recession to knock down this house of cards? Whether we are or aren’t close to a housing bubble bursting, smart real estate investors are protecting their wealth regardless of what is to come. This is where today’s guest, Doug Lodmell, has gleaming insight. Doug and his team have worked for decades to protect the wealth of real estate investors. This is commonly known as asset protection but can be thought of as simple risk mitigation for the new real estate investor. Doug has been through expansion, crashes, corrections, recoveries, and everything in between and has seen what a poor asset protection strategy can do to an investor's portfolio. He drops some knowledge on today’s show around how real estate investors in 2022 can protect themselves from going through a repeat of 2008. His simple, yet undeniably valuable advice could save you not only money but years worth of work you’ve put into real estate investing. In This Episode We Cover: Quick takes on today’s biggest stories surrounding the housing market The tools asset protection lawyers use to protect and disguise their clients’ wealth Whether or not new real estate investors need LLCs when buying properties  The biggest mistakes real estate investors make that cost them their wealth Leveraging debt to build your portfolio vs. cash hoarding for post-crash opportunities BiggerPockets’ newest podcast show featuring our own Dave Meyer!

Why? They’re inexpensive to get into, show great cash flow (on paper), and allow many investors to map their date of financial freedom. The downside? Cash flow markets are different in real life than they are on paper. What may look like a phenomenal rental property at first glance could turn into a tenant nightmare and cash flow hemorrhaging situation. So who should invest in these types of real estate markets? Questions just like this (and more) are coming up in this episode of Seeing Greene. As usual, David Greene, your expert on all things real estate, is here to answer quick questions from both rookie and veteran investors. In today’s show, David touches on topics like BRRRRing vs. buying multiple properties, 2022 housing market predictions, how to raise capital for your deals, qualifying for financing without strong income, and why 2022 may be the perfect year to go into debt! Heard a question that resonated with you? Want to hear David’s thoughts on a certain topic? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene. Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can hop on a live Q&amp;A with the man himself. In This Episode We Cover: The best way to invest spare cash: BRRRRing or buying multiple properties? How David structures his deals and raises capital using debt and equity Refinancing out of a seller-financed situation, even if you don’t qualify for conventional loans Whether to keep, sell, or refinance a property when you have significant equity sitting in it How to house hack (again) when you’ve already used your one FHA loan Developing your crystal clear criteria so you can grow your portfolio faster  And So Much More!

It seems almost impractical that someone without much experience, money, or property can secure cash-flowing rentals without putting a dollar into the deal. Even more astounding, today’s guest Andre Haynes was paid a few thousand dollars to buy his first rental property. He shares his exact steps on how he did it on today’s show! While investing in real estate with no money down can seem like an advanced concept, Andre wasn’t some cash-flowing wizard from the start. If anything, Andre’s upbringing may have brought some hurdles to the financial side of his life. He had no credit, no cash, was faced with eviction notices, and generally was falling behind financially as a parent. He had to take a hard look at his life, redefine his goals, and reevaluate his choices. From there, it was a hard, yet incredibly valuable, climb upwards. Now, only a short time later, Andre has built a real estate portfolio worth over a million dollars. He has numerous cash-flowing assets that pay for his liabilities and has started to educate others about how they can do the same. He defines this easily repeatable process on today’s show but doesn’t gloss over the fact that the only thing stopping you from obtaining the wealth you desire, is yourself. In This Episode We Cover: How to invest when you come from an upbringing that lacks financial literacy  Giving up on your “dream” so you can pursue something much greater Andre’s 5-steps to get your life together and how you can start using them today Practicing delayed gratification and how simple sacrifices pay off big in the long run The zero down loan program that Andre used to build his real estate portfolio The importance of becoming a real estate investor before you buy your first property And So Much More!

If rising home prices, rent prices, and fierce market competition have you struggling to get something under contract, your real estate saviors, David Greene and Rob Abasolo are here to help. In 2022’s hot housing market, it can seem almost impossible for new real estate investors to get their foot in the door. But, if you follow what the experts are doing, you may be able to lock up your next investment while other buyers are stuck in bidding wars. Whether you’re wondering how to buy your first rental property or your next rental property, David and Rob have answers for you. They’ve partnered up to buy luxury short-term rental properties in sunny Arizona, all while recording the exact steps they’re taking to land a deal. If you’re already investing in real estate, some of these steps may seem familiar to you, but the gems that David and Rob drop are rarely discussed (and incredibly helpful). So, if you’re ready to start your real estate investing journey, build wealth, rake in cash flow, and build passive income, you’re in the right place. David and Rob define their ten steps to investing success so you can spend less time analyzing deals and more time collecting rent checks. In This Episode We Cover: How to define your investment criteria so you can find deals that fit your needs Working with a partner and keeping the line of communication open Blocking off time so you (and your partners) can focus on crossing the finish line What to look for in a real estate agent and how to communicate to them what you want Writing your offer with multiple strategies in mind so you can beat the competition How to not become “emotionally attached” to deals that look too good to be true  And So Much More!

Want more cash flow? Want to put up a lower down payment? What about building an ADU on your land? All of these questions (and more) are coming up on this episode of Seeing Greene. Unfortunately, this is the first time in BiggerPockets history that David Greene, master investor/agent, hasn’t been able to answer a question (and for good reason). David tackles some challenging topics this episode, ranging from climate change affecting real estate values, what to do once depreciation runs out, and at what point should an investor take profits in the form of cash flow? While you may have heard varying opinions from other investing experts (or even other BiggerPockets hosts), David has a rather conclusive take on why you should NOT be retiring early with rental properties, but you should do something much greater instead. If you heard a question that resonated with you or you’d like David to go more into detail on a certain topic, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene. Or, follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can hop on a live Q&amp;A with the man himself! In This Episode We Cover: How climate change will and won’t affect buying patterns for real estate investors  Whether or not to trade a higher down payment for more cash flow or vice versa Where to find real estate meetups to network with other investors When the right time to pull out cash flow from your rental property is How to maximize tax benefits after your property’s depreciation runs out Building an ADU vs. buying another rental property with the cash And So Much More!

How many people do you know that have done forty flips, wholesale deals, or own over forty rentals? Odds are, probably not many. So how does a nineteen-year-old do that many deals in only a year? Even better, how do they then take that experience and build a successful flipping business thousands of miles away from where they live? The answer might surprise you. Dominique Gunderson is an anomaly in the best of ways. At fifteen years old she became privy to short sales, then at age seventeen, she left high school to start wholesaling full-time. Now, at age twenty-four, she runs a full-time flipping business based in New Orleans while she resides in her home state of California. She’s managing this entire out-of-state real estate investing venture strictly through her phone, laptop, and conversations with her contractors. Impressive, right? But this level of speed and growth didn’t come without its tradeoffs. Dominique failed many, many times in her pursuit of passive income and real estate profits. She’s the first to admit that she wouldn’t trade a single failure for anything she has now, as they’ve been the stepping stones to her success. So if you want to stop sitting on the sidelines and start succeeding at record speed, you better prepare to fail, just like Dominique did. In This Episode We Cover: How to quickly screen for potential hidden gems in the multifamily space The eight steps that lead to perfect multifamily underwriting so you can make the best offer possible “Loss to lease” and using it as a value-add opportunity that most investors miss Getting debt quotes, insurance quotes, and accurately calculating future property taxes Who’s opinion you need to ask for before going through on a multifamily deal Looking for the opportunities and traps within a seller’s finances Writing an LOI (letter of intent) and getting bigger deals under contract And So Much More!

Maybe you’ve analyzed duplexes, triplexes, quadplexes, or even ten-unit apartment complexes before, but what about the big deals? We’re talking about multi-million dollar multifamily investments, with hundreds of units, large debt and equity structures, and many, many small pain points only experienced investors would notice. If you’re looking for an in-depth overview of how to find, analyze, and buy a large multifamily property so you can build passive income and serious equity growth, then Andrew Cushman is the man to talk to.

In this episode, Andrew focuses on what investors should do after they’ve triaged their deals and are left with only the best in the bunch. Andrew spent years worth of time analyzing deals to come up with these eight steps. He shares them today so you can have less headache and more investing success than when he started!

But as soon as you start looking at properties, you’ll become a spreadsheet wizard in no time! With so many investors counting on automatic analysis from modern, hyper-specific real estate calculators, old-school investors beg the question “do these calculators really make a difference in the deal?” Today, expert investor, home flipper, wholetailer, and almost every other real estate title in the book, Jonathan Greene, joins us to talk about what new investors are missing out on. While many investors run spreadsheets and analyses before seeing a deal, Jonathan does it the other way around. Jonathan will drive to a property, walk the property, and then after taking a look at some specific parts of the property, will run a deal analysis. He walks through the system that not only makes this efficient but worthwhile. If you've been around the BiggerPockets Forums for some time, you’ve probably recognized Jonathan’s name (or face). He’s an active contributor, responding to forum posts almost every day and chatting with new investors every chance he gets. Jonathan has found deals, mentors, partners, and great friends thanks to online forums, like BiggerPockets. If you’re looking to get the most out of your virtual networking, Jonathan shares his five tips on extracting huge value from the collective minds of over two million real estate investors! In This Episode We Cover: Going beyond the spreadsheets and analyzing real estate internally (before using a calculator) How to get the “feel” of a house when investing out-of-state The crucial parts of a house Jonathan looks at during his first walkthrough The five steps to being successful in an online community (or in real life too!)

But, after trial and error and a lot of deals done, you’ll be able to weed out the basic agents from the rockstar realtors. If you’re brand new to real estate investing, there’s no need to sort through ten agents just to find out what makes the good ones great. Today, we’re giving you a shortcut as we pick the brain of one of the top real estate agents in the San Francisco Bay Area, and the country! Johnny Hoang just began his real estate agent journey only a short two years ago, but he’s been able to close on an astounding $67M in home sales despite having such a short time in the market. Even with things as hot as they are, that’s a very impressive number from any agent, let alone a rookie! Of course, it should come as no surprise that Johnny is a student of David Greene and works with David daily. In today’s show, David and co-host Rob Abasolo break down what it means to be a great real estate agent. They walk through different scenarios and situations with Johnny so you, the listeners, come away knowledgeable of the difference between an agent who will help you grow your portfolio and an agent who purely wants a commission check. In This Episode We Cover: How top agents prioritize clients and what you need to do to get to the top of the list The investor-client “kiss of death” and how to NOT talk to an experienced agent The seven signs of a bad agent and when to steer clear of an agent who’s all talk Finding the perfect investor-friendly agent that will diligently hunt down deals for you House hacking and using owner-occupied loans to slowly build your wealth What to expect (and not expect) your real estate agent to bring to the table And So Much More!

What do top agents do to stand out in the market? These are all questions of real estate investors, agents, and onlookers who wait to see what’s next in the 2022 housing market.

If you’re like most homeowners, you probably think of a back house, a mother-in-law suite, or a converted art studio. But what if you don’t have a home that comes with a pre-fitted accessory dwelling unit? What if you don’t want to put in the money (or time) to build one out. Are you left with any options, or are your ADU dreams dead in the dust? If you’ve wanted to start building passive income streams through your primary residence, then we’ve got good news for you. With us today is Derek Sherrell, also known as “That ADU Guy”, precisely because he is THE person you want to talk to when it comes to accessory dwelling units on your property. Derek knows his stuff, consulting dozens of homeowners on how an ADU would fit into their property and how much passive income they could make as a result. And it’s not just about building some other structure in your backyard. You can convert attics, basements, garages, and even portions of your house into accessory dwelling units. Not only does this allow you to save on the cost of new construction, but it also gives you another option to build wealth, pay down your mortgage, or simply profit from a rarely used portion of your home. In This Episode We Cover: The exact criteria homeowners should look for in potential ADU-friendly properties  Attached vs. detached ADUs and the benefits (and cash flow difference) of both The four main challenges when building, financing, or strategizing an ADU What to look for in existing ADU structures, whether it’s a garage, back house, or basement How to become an ADU expert quickly (and for free) with simple city zoning information And So Much More!

News stories in 2010 would talk about the slew of families that had been foreclosed on, with big banks taking back property from a significant number of former homeowners. Fast forward twelve years and many real estate investing fortunes have been made on the backs of foreclosure sales. Is this chance coming back once again in 2022? Joined with us today for this month’s BiggerNews is the David Greene and Dave Meyer duo plus special guest, Daren Blomquist, VP of Market Economics at Auction.com. Daren knows the foreclosure market inside and out, spending his days studying and analyzing housing market data. With the newest “surge” in foreclosures, Daren is here to quell the mind of investors who are either hoping for (or dreading) another foreclosure crisis. Back in early 2020, the US government imposed a foreclosure moratorium and a nationwide forbearance program, allowing citizens to hang on to their homes a little longer. As the economy shifts back into gear, and the moratorium ending, will we see a surge in foreclosures? Or, has price appreciation gifted so many homeowners with equity that foreclosures aren’t even on the horizon? Whatever the answer is, Daren can help you, the investor, plan for your next money-making move. In This Episode We Cover: Announcing who the new BiggerPockets Podcast host is! The mass migration of homebuyers out of their local metros and into new surroundings Zillow’s newest “SuperApp” that plans to replace realtors How the 2010 foreclosure crisis compares to today and what would bring a new wave of foreclosures Why foreclosures are up a whopping 97% as we head into 2022 Investing in foreclosures and how to score deals before they hit the market And So Much More!

Over the past two decades, the bed and breakfast type business has fallen prey to the more scalable short-term rental model. Real estate investors quickly realized that they could capitalize on the long-term equity gain of rental properties with the cash flow of hotels in one highly-lucrative asset class. Thus, the rise of the short-term rental, VRBO, and Airbnb investor was born. Arguably the most notable short-term rental investor in the space today is good friend of the show, Rob Abasolo. Rob is such a pioneer in the short-term rental investing area, that veteran agent, broker, and investor David Greene, has partnered up with him to collectively build their cash-flowing, equity-increasing empire together. With dozens of deals under both of their belts, Rob and David walk through the five steps that it takes to find success in the short-term rental space. This episode is split up into two sections, with the latter coming out right after this one. In this show, Rob dives deep into finding a short-term rental market that fits your needs and goals, choosing a location that specifically benefits you as the investor, the different types of short-term rentals, and how to build a vacation rental strategy that will match your goals for financial independence. Whether you’re thinking of buying a snowy chateau or a desert domicile, Rob and David will help you put the pieces together so you can build a strong portfolio that will benefit you for decades to come. In This Episode We Cover: Choosing a short-term rental market and what aspects to look for Cash flow vs. appreciation and which matters more when it comes to STR investing The four types of short-term rental markets and which have the best chance of success Seasonality and factoring it into your revenue and profit calculations The risks of investing in vacation rental markets and how to scale your portfolio faster And So Much More!

This should come as no surprise, seeing that short-term rentals not only work for vacationers, traveling business people, or anyone else who wants a nice, unique place to stay. But, while the rest of the world is focusing on which mountainside chateau they’re booking for their weekend getaway, real estate investors worldwide are figuring out how they can buy, rehab, furnish, and profit from these vacation rental ventures. With so much competition in the market, it begs the question: is the short-term rental space becoming oversaturated?And, if it is, how can investors get on the ground floor of sleepy markets that will explode in popularity over the next decade or so? Of course, with questions like these, we need our short-term rental and wave-hair-styling expert, Rob Abasolo at the side of Sir BRRRR himself, David Greene. In this Q&amp;A episode, David and Rob will discuss a handful of topics, mostly centered around short-term and vacation rentals. Topics like: how to mix a long-term rental and short-term rental in one property, how to market outside of the top short-term rental platforms, can you convert a regular rental into a vacation rental, and the pros and cons of real estate partnerships. In This Episode We Cover: Buying mixed-use properties so you can combine long and short-term rental advantages Whether or not the short-term rental market is starting to see saturation How to adjust cleaning fees to optimize your booking rate Converting a long-term rental into a short-term rental (and the time it takes to do so) What to do when you can’t find comps (comparable rents) in your area?

To start, you have your classic BRRRR strategy (buy, rehab, rent, refinance repeat), a method that many real estate investors have used to gain vast amounts of equity in short amounts of time. Then, on top of the BRRRR, you have section 8 rentals, which many investors stray away from. Both of these investment strategies can be thought of as “advanced” rental property investing methods, but combining them can almost automatically guarantee you phenomenal rent, for years (if not decades) to come. One investor known for his expertise in both section 8 rentals and BRRRR investing is Dr. Joe Asamoah. Regularly, Dr. Joe may be the smartest person in the room and he really shines when speaking about the often forgotten benefits of section 8 rentals. While many investors simply think of D-class houses and D-class tenants when accepting section 8 vouchers, Dr. Joe disagrees. His theory is simple—Find C or D-class properties in B-class neighborhoods, and rent to A-class section 8 tenants. The payoff? Very long-term tenants with guaranteed rent whose lives you can benefit directly. And Dr. Joe isn't just hypothesizing about this—he’s been doing this for decades and may be why he has tenants who have stayed with him for over twenty years, paying rent every month, on time. In This Episode We Cover: Before and after photos of Dr. Joe’s most recent section 8 BRRRR rental Renovation hiccups when doing large renovations/BRRRR deals The “bedroom-to-cash-flow” ratio that makes section 8 a lucrative choice for investors How to find the highest quality, long-term tenants in your investing area Building multiple exit strategies out of one property for maximum cash flow and equity gain The most common BRRRR risks and how to mitigate appraisal and tenant headaches And So Much More!

We all want more time to spend with our families, doing things we love, and having autonomy over our own lives without having to worry about making money to live. This is all well and good for investors getting a delayed start on their investing journey, but what about the young investors, the ingenuitive investors, or those who could give so much more than they get? This is just one of the topics that your hosts David Greene and Henry Washington get into today, as they take live questions from BiggerPockets listeners without any prep, research, or outside factors coming into play. You’re getting a direct line into the mind of two of the best investors (and podcast hosts) around so you can see their struggles, landlording pains, and decisions behind their investing careers. In this show, we especially get into topics such as: building a real estate portfolio from scratch, non-QM loans and their big benefits for investors, when to stop buying rentals and focus on paying off your portfolio, finding off-market deals, and the classic cash flow vs. appreciation debate for long term wealth. This episode features both rookie investors and investors already seeing success through real estate. If you invest in real estate (or want to), this is the place to be! In This Episode We Cover: Investing locally vs. investing out-of-state to capitalize on lower housing costs Portfolio loans, non-QM loans, and other flexible financing for real estate investments When to stop buying rentals and pay off the ones you already own Whether or not to allow rental arbitrageurs to lease your rental properties Cash flow vs. appreciation and how this personally impacts your growth How to build relationships with commercial brokers so the deals come to you And So Much More!

Arguably, no. In reality, you don’t need a lot of experience, know-how, or cash on hand to buy your first income property. But, you need to at least be resourceful, take advantage of your opportunities, and have the tenacity to follow through on your goals. If you have all those qualities, you may be a great real estate investor, or maybe you’re today’s guest, Erika Brown. Erika wasn’t raised by real estate investors. No, this was a skill she had to learn completely on her own. In fact, she learned the real estate sales skill without even knowing it! When Erika moved to a new neighborhood in the Atlanta, Georgia area, she was consistently convincing friends to buy properties around her home. She passed these leads along to a local real estate agent until she realized she was casually handing over six figures in commissions. So, she went ahead and got her real estate license, and later turned a pocket listing into her first real estate investment. From there, she saw a profitable path laid out, all she needed was the partners, lending, and work to actualize it. Now, Erika is sitting on a sizable real estate portfolio, building purposeful and profitable businesses so she can employ members of her community and lead the wealth generation movement in her circle! In This Episode We Cover: When part-time agents should make the jump to full-time work (and how to do it) Quitting the corporate lifestyle to take on more risk as a real estate investor Cashing out retirement accounts to fund your first (or next) deal Getting around common real estate roadblocks that lead rookie investors to fail Having a “purpose-first” business model so you can build wealth and upgrade your community Why every investor must “do what the wealthy do” to succeed in real estate And So Much More!

If you’re used to dealing with single-family homes, duplexes, triplexes, or quadplexes, you’ve probably done real estate underwriting to some degree, but you’ve called it “real estate analysis”. In both scenarios, investors are looking at what they’ll make on a deal, how much they need to invest, and what exit strategies they have. But, in a hot housing market, like we’re in today, by the time you analyze a deal, a deal may already be gone. You need a way to quickly sort deals into the “pursue” or “dump” piles, and Andrew Cushman, expert multifamily investor, may have just the solution for you. Andrew has been on the BiggerPockets podcast before and manages over 2,600 units, so he definitely knows what he’s talking about! Today, Andrew showcases the phase one underwriting he uses to decide quickly on deals, as well as the four levers to look at before even getting into underwriting. His system can save you hours, or even days, if you’re a full-time investor, and it helps rookie investors quickly analyze deals so they can get into the game. Now, residential owners can transition into commercial real estate with better scale and bigger profits. In This Episode We Cover: How Andrew scaled from zero to 2,600 units in only ten years The basic screening process that allows you to triage your deals and waste less time Four levers every investor should look at when analyzing a new deal The six factors of phase one multifamily underwriting and using it to unlock “home runs”  Developing and nurturing broker relationships so you can get off-market deals before your competition  And So Much More!

Many investors who have been stacking up properties over the past few years now realize they’re sitting on a significant amount of equity. But what is the best way to use this equity without raising your stress levels in the process? Should you buy more units or focus on getting better, smaller, cash-flowing deals? David Greene is here to help alleviate you from the decision-induced stress, as he’s been dealing with these exact types of questions personally and with many of his buyers recently. In this Seeing Greene episode, David takes answers from BiggerPockets listeners both in video and written form, discussing topics ranging from scaling your real estate portfolio, outsourcing “heavy” tasks with a virtual assistant, and whether to cash-out refinance or use a HELOC(home equity line of credit). David also answers the age-old question of whether or not unit count matters when it comes to cash flow and long-term wealth building. You may be surprised to hear that many investors' “unit counts” don’t accurately reflect the size of their personal holdings. You’ll also get advice on how to find a great real estate agent from one of the top agents in the country! If you’d like to ask David a question, be sure to submit yours here! In This Episode We Cover: How to grow your real estate portfolio in spite of fluctuating market conditions Using virtual assistants to outsource the repeatable, “heavy” tasks on your plate When the right time to sell an investment property is (especially with HIGH appreciation) Transferring a rental property from your LLC into your personal name, and the implications that come with it The two types of agents and which one you should use for buying investment properties HELOCs vs cash-out refinances and the specific uses of both And So Much More!

In fact, this episode is geared towards anyone making money in real estate, and listening could save you a massive amount in taxes over your lifetime. But isn’t tax reduction only for the ultra-rich? How can the average, everyday investor who has one, two, or a dozen rentals keep more of their capital so they can invest in more deals? Tom Wheelwright is the exact man to ask this question to. He’s so good at what he does, that he’s been advising Rich Dad Poor Dad’s Robert Kiyosaki for decades. Tom is dedicated to minimizing the tax burden that he and other investors suffer from. If you’ve read Rich Dad Poor Dad, a lot of Tom’s strategy will sound familiar, but in reality, it’s what all intelligent investors are doing. In today’s episode, Tom walks through the biggest areas where real estate investors can cut their tax bills, how to generate losses through depreciation, building an investment system, and the five steps to eliminating income tax from your real estate deals. If you make money in real estate, no matter how, this is information you can NOT live without. In This Episode We Cover: Why rich investors pay fewer taxes than those who are employed or self-employed Tax incentives vs. loopholes and why one is risky and the other is celebrated Where investors can look to greatly reduce their taxable income  How real estate debt gives investors far less risk in their deals Deprecation, recapture, and how real estate gives you a leg up on income tax reduction Whether or not you should hold a real estate investment in an LLC And So Much More!

With so many investors on opposite sides of the fence when it comes to housing market crashes and corrections, it’s nice to hear the thoughts of someone who has accurately predicted past crashes. We’re honored to have Ivy Zelman from Zelman &amp; Associates on today to discuss the modern housing market, supply chain shortages, and overbuilding problems. Zelman accurately predicted the 2007 housing market crash and has been on the front line of analysis and forecasting when it comes to all things housing market-related. She’s seen the data firsthand and has a broad understanding of which factors specifically impact prices, demand, and overall availability. David Greene and Dave Meyer take some time to ask her the top-of-mind questions that investors and first-time homebuyers want answered. If you’re planning on purchasing real estate in the next year or two, it may be best to get Zelman’s opinion before putting in your offer. She’s seeing multiple “yellow flags” that may signal stark changes within the housing market, either allowing you to scoop up better deals in the near future or at least mitigate loss when buying at these record-high prices. In This Episode We Cover: The similarities between the 2007 housing market and today’s housing market Affordability and how it greatly impacts both buying and selling behavior The “overbuilding problem” we’re seeing with many multifamily developers Supply chain problems, labor shortages, and other factors impacting new construction Who should (and should not) buy real estate over the next couple of years And So Much More!

It could be one or one hundred rentals. But, whether you’re a rookie or veteran real estate investor, it’s hard to not be impressed by Jason Rash’s story. Jason has put off investing in real estate for most of his working life, focusing more on passive income streams like investing in stocks. This all changed when Jason saw tens of thousands in stock value disappear from his accounts. He wanted something more reliable, stable, and calculated that he could control. Of course, real estate investing fits that criteria exactly. So what did Jason do? Did he go and buy one rental, wait a few years, and then try to buy another? Nope. Jason went and bought ten properties over the span of eight months. That more than one property a month within his first year of investing! Be warned, there is a method to this madness. Jason has a tight control on his long-distance investing, having only the best agents, property managers, plumbers, electricians, and contractors on speed dial. This wasn’t a system he fell into, this was a system he intentionally built. Jason shares his six-part criteria that any new investor can use, especially when trying to minimize headaches and maximize cash flow. In This Episode We Cover: The huge competitive advantage of having local knowledge and a core four Lowering your property management fee while creating a win-win for both parties Seller credits and using them to finance house repairs and upgrades Fighting off “shiny object syndrome” so you can stay focused on your goal Jason’s six-step criteria to buy headache-free houses when investing from a distance Building a scalable, repeatable, simple system for finding, funding, and closing on great deals And So Much More!

Even the most experienced investors feel it before they pull the trigger on a new deal, business, or strategy. It’s not to say that careful consideration of an investment isn’t a crucial requirement to success, but the mental stuttering we feel when trying to make a decision can leave us in a foggy stupor. When we feel like this, we do fewer deals, build less wealth, and live our lives half full. Kindra Hall, bestselling author, master storyteller, and real estate investor knows this feeling all too well. She watched her husband struggle with analysis paralysis during the mass foreclosures of the great recession. Thankfully, she and her husband took the time to catch, analyze, choose, and install a better outlook, or story, for their investing future. This type of mental mechanism allowed Kindra and her husband to grow their real estate holdings and buy the beach house of their dreams. In today’s episode, Kindra outlines the four steps every investor needs to go through to create better mental stories that will push you to the finish line, instead of keeping you in investing anxiety. If you’re still waiting to purchase your first investment property, we recommend taking this advice to heart, trying it out, and taking action! In This Episode We Cover: The stories we outwardly and inwardly tell ourselves that could hurt our success How to crush hesitation so you can make the right decision faster Shrinking limiting beliefs about what we can and can’t do The four-step process to redesigning your story and installing a new one How Kindra got a $1M+ beach house for well under asking price And So Much More!

Scaling too fast? These are just some of the problems real estate investors have to deal with every day. What’s the prize for all this work? Financial freedom, personal fulfillment, and the time to do what you want, with who you want, wherever you want! It’s no surprise that real estate investing is one of the best ways for the average person to build wealth. But what do you do when things go wrong? Expert investor, agent, lender, and podcast host, David Greene, is joined by short-term rental pioneer and YouTube personality, Rob Abasolo, to answer questions from rookie and veteran investors. These questions are thrown at our experienced hosts without any prep, allowing them to come up with quick solutions that could answer a question you’ve been wishing someone would ask. David and Rob touch on topics that almost every investor will deal with, such as: how to take on private money for the first time, creative ways to fund your rehab, tips for setting up a short-term rental, when to quit your job and pursue real estate full-time, and how to get rid of headache tenants.  In This Episode We Cover: Should you own real estate in an LLC or in your personal name?

Scaling too fast? These are just some of the problems real estate investors have to deal with every day. What’s the prize for all this work? Financial freedom, personal fulfillment, and the time to do what you want, with who you want, wherever you want! It’s no surprise that real estate investing is one of the best ways for the average person to build wealth. But what do you do when things go wrong? Expert investor, agent, lender, and podcast host, David Greene, is joined by short-term rental pioneer and YouTube personality, Rob Abasolo, to answer questions from rookie and veteran investors. These questions are thrown at our experienced hosts without any prep, allowing them to come up with quick solutions that could answer a question you’ve been wishing someone would ask. David and Rob touch on topics that almost every investor will deal with, such as: how to take on private money for the first time, creative ways to fund your rehab, tips for setting up a short-term rental, when to quit your job and pursue real estate full-time, and how to get rid of headache tenants.  In This Episode We Cover: Should you own real estate in an LLC or in your personal name? How to legally (and ethically) raise private capital for real estate deals The best ways to fund a rehab, especially when you’re low on cash The biggest mistake that short-term rental hosts make when setting up their first rental Valuing your time vs. money and when to quit your W2 Inheriting tenants and what to do when renters won’t pay on time (or at all) And So Much More!

What if something goes wrong in the house? What if something needs fixing? What if there are problems with tenants? As today’s guest Sarah Weaver puts it, “do nothing”, your core four can handle it all so you don’t have to stress. Sarah knows what she’s talking about—she’s been a nomadic landlord for years now, teaching agents and investors how to grow their businesses while living their dream life. Sarah was able to close on twelve units while operating abroad and working remotely. She was buying fourplexes while hiking in New Zealand, landlording while on the beaches of Bali, and growing her businesses while enjoying everything South America had to offer. Sarah embodies the exact type of life so many investors are looking for. The difference between most investors and Sarah? She let go of fear and kept her goals in mind, no matter what she was doing. This way, she’s been able to retire off of fifteen rental properties in less than a decade while running her own business, traveling, and really doing whatever she wants! In This Episode We Cover: Really long-distance investing and how your boots on the ground team make it possible How to find an investor-friendly agent that will provide big value to your business What agents need to know before they start working with real estate investors  Having a crystal clear criteria and using it easily find real estate deals Medium-term rentals that provide less risk and more rent than long-term rentals The long-distance BRRRR and using it to invest in affordable areas Quickly find a local, investor-friendly real estate agent who can help you find, analyze, and close your next deal using the Agent Finder And So Much More!

These are all things that author, investor, real estate agent, and expert hacker of houses, Craig Curelop, is used to. Craig got his start in real estate investing by renting out rooms in his own home, having his roommates pay his mortgage for him, and eventually skating on to financial freedom. Craig is joined by another familiar expert house hacker and real estate investor, David Greene, to answer questions around lending, leases, and the legality of raising private money. With so many new real estate rookies in the investing sphere, this episode is a great intro for anyone who’s looking to plan, start, or scale their next real estate investment. Craig and David fire from the hip in this episode, answering questions live with topics ranging from scaling your business while keeping your free time, refinancing on a shared boarding house, raising private capital (equity vs. debt), what to expect when you house hack, and how to rent out your home in the snowy winter. In This Episode We Cover: Establishing your “beachhead” as an investor, business owner, or real estate agent Strategizing your refinance when your home is less than conventional How much interest to promise investors and when to raise capital  Planning your house hack purchase and setting up your home for multiple roommates Precautions to take when renting out your home in the winter And So Much More!

You have a bunch of young professionals living under one roof. What if there is an argument over cleaning, what if there is a fight that breaks out, will my property be ripped to shreds? Let today’s guest, Sam Wegert, quell your fears—co-living and house hacking can rake in cash flow, with way less of a landlord headache. Sam is no stranger to entrepreneurship and real estate investing. He bought his own martial art studio at the age of fifteen and his first rental property at nineteen years old. Now he boasts a portfolio of over twenty-two long-term rentals, ten short-term rentals, seven martial arts studios, and one online program. Even more impressive, Sam is managing over 150 different tenants throughout his thirty-two properties. How does he do this without ripping his hair out? Well, aside from the relaxation that comes after an intense sparring match, Sam has systematized his real estate business into a cash-producing machine. He has had to build his own property management and his own policies that help keep him, and his tenants, happy. If you’re looking for your next cash cow rental investment, this could be it!  In This Episode We Cover: Starting a business and buying property at an impressively young age House hacking and why every young investor should try it Keeping the peace in a co-living house and building a bullet-proof lease  What to look for when buying co-living properties (size, bedrooms, bathrooms, etc.) The systems Sam uses to keep his rental property business running smoothly Developing discipline to take on bigger, scarier challenges (and crush them!)

Before building her own CRM, Stephanie Betters was struggling to grow her real estate portfolio. She had an original goal to acquire fifteen units before her children went to college, but realized that her taxing job as a nurse wouldn’t allow it. For her to hit fifteen units, she would have to scale, automate, and delegate tasks. She did just that and overshot her goal by a significant margin. As of now, Stephanie has 1,000 rental units and is wholesaling and building another 200 deals per year. She’s doing all of this while working as a part-time nurse, which truly shows her real estate system is a well-oiled machine. But, this system wasn’t just dropped into her lap, she had to build it herself using Salesforce as a base. If you’ve been thinking about scaling your business, no matter what stage you’re at, Stephanie has recommendations for how to do so in the best way possible. This includes systems for the novice investor/house hacker up to the streamlined syndicator and everything in between. In This Episode We Cover: Incorporating “real estate tech” at each stage of your investing journey Using CRMs like salesforce to automate your entire business Hiring, training, and leading a team of virtual assistants (foreign and domestic) “Lead leakage” and how it could be costing you thousands every month The three most important KPIs every investor should be tracking Text, email, and other outreach-type automations that will save you time And So Much More!

Expert investors, like David Greene, know that cash flow is but one of many factors to consider when buying a rental property, and it’s arguably the least important. While rookie investors focus on building their cash flow, veterans focus on building their wealth while freeing up their time. On this week’s episode of Seeing Greene, your jiu-jitsu and real estate sensei is back to drop some wealth-building bombs so you can work less, live more, and lead a happier life. David takes questions in the form of video submissions as well as questions off of the BiggerPockets forums. The topics of these questions range from HELOC (home equity lines of credit), buying rentals without a W2, cash flow vs. appreciation, and why rent appreciation isn’t matching home appreciation. Want to ask David a question? Send in your video submission here! In This Episode We Cover: When to use HELOCs, hard money loans, or conventional loans to buy rentals How to find financing for a rental when you don’t have W2 income What sellers look for when deciding on which offer to take How to lower your DTI (debt-to-income) ratio so you can qualify for more loans Whether or not to focus on cash flow or appreciation for long-term wealth building Why rent growth cannot and will not match home price appreciation And So Much More!

If you have a strong knack for networking and the social skills to connect with many different individuals, you could be the exact piece that almost every investor is looking for. As more investors get into the hot commercial real estate market, they’ll need private capital to fund their deals. So who better than you to connect the investor and the deal finder for a piece of the cash flow pie? If you’re worried about the time commitment of raising capital, let us introduce you to Esther Reizes-Lowenbein, who not only worked as a broker, capital raiser, and investor but also is raising her eight children while doing it. Fortunately for Esther, raising capital is something she loves to do, as she has a strong communication background with her former training in speech pathology. If you’re getting the itch to start investing in bigger deals, but don’t know how to get started, Esther can help. She walks through the different roles in commercial real estate, whether to invest, syndicate, or stick with small deals, and how to become a capital raiser yourself (the right, legal way). In This Episode We Cover: General partners, limited partners, and every commercial real estate role in between Whether to invest, syndicate, or continue to buy small deals yourself How to legally (and ethically) become a great capital raiser The biggest mistakes commercial brokers make early into their career The hottest property types and which you should look into for 2022 The Achilles heel of most short-term rental deals  And So Much More!

Oh, we hear what you’re saying, “all those on-market properties are bad deals!” While not all properties sitting on the MLS are home runs, today’s guest Cody Davis can confirm there are multiple cash flowing needles in the public housing market haystack. Cody and his partner have been able to grow their portfolio to eighty-one units, all through seller financing and all found on-market. These deals not only cash flow but once paid off will allow Cody to retire not only himself but his mother as well. Did we mention that he’s twenty-one years old at the time of this recording? Another under-thirty-expert to add to our list of impressive guests! While many investors give up after initial pushback over seller financing, Cody goes one step further by having the investor emotionally invest in his success. No tacky sales methods or pushy conversations—just honest work with a clear vision that a seller can relate to. Cody is top of his class in terms of managing properties, acquiring new ones, and working with sellers—a guest ANY investor can learn a lot from! In This Episode We Cover: Picking yourself up after a deal falls apart and finding another “Relationship marketing” and how it helps sellers finance your acquisitions Raising private capital and being sure your cash flow outweighs your debt Having a crystal clear vision and using it to fuel all your acquisitions Managing a property in-house vs. hiring a third-party property manager  Why cap rate may be an over-hyped, often useless metric when looking at commercial real estate Finding real estate deals on-market when there are “no deals to be found” And So Much More!

Recently, Redfin compiled a list of their ten top 2022 housing market predictions ranging from things like interest rate bumps, to rent hikes, housing price cooldowns, and more. But, are these predictions realistic, and if so, how should investors prepare for them to come true? David Greene and Dave Meyer are back again to take a look at five of these ten predictions and give their informed, battle-tested opinions on which have the potential to come true. Dave has spent probably every day of the past year looking at housing market data and investing himself. David on the other hand has been running multiple businesses in the real estate vertical, allowing him to see directly what is happening in the market. With the Dave-duo back in the podcasting saddle, you’ll be able to make wiser investment decisions this year while following the “pendulum swing” of wealth-building in real estate! Have a happy, healthy, and wealthy 2022! In This Episode We Cover: What happens when interest rates start to rise in 2022? Will new listings hit a 10-year high as housing demand stays steady? What will rent hikes look like as inflation roars onward?

Some could say that he is THE person most thought of when you say “real estate investing”. But, in a both sad and happy way, Brandon is taking time off from the BiggerPockets Podcast to spend more time with his family, build his business, and surf significantly more. Due to the magnitude of the occasion, we brought in BiggerPockets’ founder, Joshua Dorkin, to help hand off the keys to the castle to your new show host, David Greene. Brandon, David, and Josh spend this show talking about burnout, identity, the cost of comparison, wealth building, new year's resolutions and goals, and how to become a better person, bit by bit, every day. We will miss hearing Brandon’s metaphors, jiu-jitsu references, and real estate horror stories from years ago, but we wish him the best of luck on his new ventures and hope to hear him back on the podcast soon with an update. For everyone but Brandon, stick around for new show formats with brand new co-hosts and content that you, the BiggerPockets community, have been asking for. In This Episode We Cover: Why burnout can be dangerous and often deceiving on your journey to success Separating your identity from your occupation and being more than just an investor The cost of comparison and why being content is the ultimate sign of success The “Wheel Of Life” practice to help you analyze where you are lacking 2022 goal setting and resolutions, and whether or not they work Advice on podcasting and taking the reins from Brandon Turner and Joshua Dorkin And So Much More!

While he didn’t have to put up his own money to close on the deals, he did go through the process of lead generating, offering, auctioning, analyzing, and finally closing on them for his hedge fund employer. He was able to score twenty-seven hundred homes in just over two years, before realizing it was time for him to build his personal portfolio a bit more. When the market crashed in 2009, Tommy saw an opportunity to buy homes at a significant discount. He was essentially buying anything under sixty thousand dollars in California, which turned out to be a good idea seeing how much the state has appreciated in the past twelve years. Tommy knows what it takes for the hedge funds to buy a great deal, but he also knows what they’re overlooking. Even if you’re not planning on buying two-thousand plus units in two years, Tommy’s knowledge of “buy boxes” and systematizing your lead flow can help you reach a significant unit count, much faster. If you want to partner up on a deal, have a chat, or wholesale a home, get in touch with Tommy at tommy@ilovehouses.com! In This Episode We Cover: REOs vs. foreclosures vs. pre-foreclosures (and which you should look out for) Creative financing and understanding which type falls into which market cycle Developing your “buy box” and “crystal clear criteria” for real estate deals Thinking like a hedge fund so you can beat them at their own game How to scale your portfolio so you don’t just have more units, but less work Where to find the best lead sources so you can buy, BRRRR, or wholesale as you see fit And So Much More!

Maria was working in Silicon Valley before she voluntarily left her position to build an empire of her own. She took her down payment savings for a primary residence and on a whim bought a rental property in Fort Collins, Colorado. She and her husband then decided to move to Finland to raise their children. Through some challenging life events, Maria was left heartbroken and grief-stricken, with a business that became a full-time job for her. She wanted to express her creativity via design, so they decided to move back to America to flip their first rental property in Colorado. Maria’s inspiring story is a testament to how real estate investing can pull you out of financial, emotional, and mental depths. She has built a real estate empire worth well over two million dollars and has the financial freedom to spend time where she wants, with who she wants, doing what she wants. In This Episode We Cover: How to build your real estate portfolio without building yourself a job Using real estate as a hedge against high taxes  Presenting investment opportunities in a professional, efficient way Healing after heartbreak and using your passions to bring you mental clarity  The 4 keys to raising capital for real estate investing (whether it be banks, private money, etc.) Why you should always be willing to eat the shiz sandwich  And So Much More!

As a middle child in a large family, Omni was never given the “investing talk” and was often surrounded by people who thought landlords were greedy. But, Omni had the entrepreneurial spirit, and through trial and error, found real estate investing to be the most reliable, practical, scalable, and fun business around. He started with a single “condotel” in his native state of Hawaii before branching off into out-of-state investing. For most of the past two decades, Omni never spoke about his investing career to those outside of his immediate family. It wasn’t until recently that he started the “Cash Flow Breakfast Club” for agents in his brokerage to talk about investing, financial freedom, and generational wealth. Now, with over one hundred properties, Omni is on a mission to purchase fifty-two properties in fifty-two weeks! Although it’s not the end of the year just yet, we’re quite confident that he and his team will successfully cross the finish line. In This Episode We Cover: How to get into real estate when your family doesn’t openly talk about money Finding a mentor and using their expertise to propel you forward Purchasing real estate in expensive markets and when to value appreciation over cash flow The questions to ask a potential property manager in a new market Buying and selling real estate portfolios to create a win-win for both parties 2022 market predictions and why you shouldn’t depend on today’s political environment The “Cash Flow Breakfast Club” and Omni’s new book And So Much More!

As a middle child in a large family, Omni was never given the “investing talk” and was often surrounded by people who thought landlords were greedy. But, Omni had the entrepreneurial spirit, and through trial and error, found real estate investing to be the most reliable, practical, scalable, and fun business around. He started with a single “condotel” in his native state of Hawaii before branching off into out-of-state investing. For most of the past two decades, Omni never spoke about his investing career to those outside of his immediate family. It wasn’t until recently that he started the “Cash Flow Breakfast Club” for agents in his brokerage to talk about investing, financial freedom, and generational wealth. Now, with over one hundred properties, Omni is on a mission to purchase fifty-two properties in fifty-two weeks! Although it’s not the end of the year just yet, we’re quite confident that he and his team will successfully cross the finish line. In This Episode We Cover: How to get into real estate when your family doesn’t openly talk about money Finding a mentor and using their expertise to propel you forward Purchasing real estate in expensive markets and when to value appreciation over cash flow The questions to ask a potential property manager in a new market Buying and selling real estate portfolios to create a win-win for both parties 2022 market predictions and why you shouldn’t depend on today’s political environment The “Cash Flow Breakfast Club” and Omni’s new book And So Much More!

More often than not, smart and capable individuals will find a way to use their hardships as fuel to build something better. This is exactly what house flipping, wholesaling, and rental property-owning partners Noah Evans and Jeff Fawson did. Noah and Jeff were both following different paths to real estate success, taking on apprenticeships under investors who had already made it big. It wasn’t until Jeff was doing some work on Noah’s house that the two began talking, realizing they had the same type of past conflicts and saw each other’s strengths as their own weaknesses. Now, they’re building a systematized, scaling real estate business, operating in multiple markets, and bringing in not only flipping and wholesaling profits but generational wealth-building cash flow. Noah and Jeff discuss how they research markets for investing, systematizing fix and flips down to a point-by-point checklist, and how to make networking beneficial (instead of a drag). In This Episode We Cover: Using your past struggles to fuel your future success in real estate and life Networking in a way that truly adds value to other investors’ lives Finding a partner who matches your weaknesses and struggles in your strengths How to identify and research a new market for real estate investing The systems and tools that Noah and Jeff use to run their scalable business Paying attention to personal progress, instead of the dollar amount on a deal How ripped BiggerPockets founder Josh Dorkin has become And So Much More!

He made a massive leap, making lots of mistakes along the way until he found this gold mine of an asset class. For years, Sergio was buying small multifamily properties, one of them being a “monster house” which he later had to sell due to some serious zoning issues. Once he was introduced to syndications, he knew he could take his portfolio higher, without the headaches of large multifamily. Now, Sergio has twelve self storage facilities, with a combined valuation of close to $40M. He’s been able to increase his equity by many, many millions with simple value-add strategies like increasing rent, paving parking lots, and installing key-accessible gates for his customers. This isn’t the regular value-add you’re used to with granite countertops and freshly tiled showers; self storage value-add can be minimal with massive results. Sergio also dives into his long-term exit plans—something every investor should be thinking about. Are you planning on selling your properties one by one to the highest bidder, or will you package them up and walk away with a huge payday? In This Episode We Cover: What a multifamily “monster house” is and why you should avoid them Zoning laws and how they can affect your long-term profit The pros and cons of investing in self storage facilities  What to look for in self storage facilities and other types of commercial real estate How to raise money for your deals (even if you’re a new investor) Defining your exit plan so you can walk away rich after building your portfolio And So Much More!

This vision doesn’t magically come true once you write it out, but mysteriously, those who craft a "Vivid Vision" accomplish, if not exceed, their goals for the future. No one is more deserving of a call with Cameron than J.B. Klein, our winner of BPCon 2021’s coaching call giveaway. J.B. scaled quickly over the past year to hit a respectable unit count, but he’s feeling traction slip out from under his feet. J.B. wants to ensure that his business is set up to grow if he intends to acquire many multiples of his current portfolio. To that end, JB crafted a Vivid Vision, and a team of copywriters at Conscious Copy helped turn it into a masterpiece! This call between Cameron and J.B. is a massive resource to anyone investing in real estate, regardless of business size or experience. Cameron is a highly sought-after business coach and he makes clear, direct points that any listener of The BiggerPockets Podcast can take and expand upon to make their lives more fulfilling. In This Episode We Cover: How to craft your three-year “Vivid Vision” of a future business Describing and defining your why behind business growth, passive income, and freedom Building strong relationships with your team, partners, and investors Minimizing anxiety and sleepless nights as a stressed-out leader Delegating any task that doesn’t include your “genius”  Setting up the core values of your business and sticking to them And So Much More!

He spent the majority of his youth building up his father’s company to later sell it for a substantial sum. After teaching others how to do the same, Gino took the time to write books that would pave the way for future entrepreneurial success. Books like Traction, Rocket Fuel, Get A Grip, and his newest book, The EOS Life.  In it, Gino describes the five points of an ideal life: doing what you love, with people you love, making a huge difference, being compensated appropriately, and having time for other passions. Sounds like paradise doesn’t it? Well, if you’re an entrepreneur (or a want-to-be entrepreneur), this “ideal life” is perfectly within your grasp. On today’s show, Gino walks through how any entrepreneur, nine-to-five worker, or business owner can hit all five of these points and live a truly fulfilling life. Gino mentions five separate tools that can help you along your journey to an ideal life, but the most important piece of this entire show is how you have to put up the risk to take away the reward. In This Episode We Cover: Why Gino created EOS (Entrepreneurial Operating System) for business owners Whether or not you have the six essential traits of an entrepreneur  The five points of living an ideal life (and why they’re closer than you think) Dropping your $25/hour tasks and starting to focus on $1,000+/hour tasks  Understanding that reward does not come without sufficient risk  Why time off from work can fuel better ideas and help you enjoy life more And So Much More!

Billy’s early life was anything but comfortable — growing up in El Salvador, he was used to no running water and no electricity. He likes to say that he didn’t start at zero but started at negative one-hundred. Billy’s family immigrated to the United States when he was 10 years old, moving first to California and then later to Nebraska. As a teenager, Billy began rapping as a way for him to express himself but found he loved the craft. Rapping allowed Billy to fill his time with something positive, instead of taking the wrong path many of his friends were on. His rap taught him sales skills, business skills, how taxes work, and most importantly, how to make money. Reading stories of generational wealth, Billy was compelled to start investing in real estate. He got his first deal, learned a lot about the BRRRR strategy, and continued to put his knowledge to work. Now, he’s sitting on twenty-two doors between eighteen different properties. He gives credit to simply taking responsibility for his outcomes, instead of blaming others or the system around him. In This Episode We Cover: Building wealth even if you started with a disadvantage Developing sales skills and using them when buying and selling properties Generational wealth and why it means more than just getting rich Finding deals both on and off-market for the BRRRR strategy The biggest hurdles that come with owning a large rental portfolio  Creating a sellable, scalable business so you work less and make more And So Much More!

Is Zillow out of the iBuyer game? And why does my cash offer mean less than it did last year? Dave Meyer, VP of Data and Analytics at BiggerPockets, has heard your questions through BiggerPockets forum posts, YouTube videos, and on Instagram. This data-loving sandwich connoisseur is back to walk you through the biggest stories in real estate. As incredible as Zillow Offers was, it looks like it won’t be around any longer (at least for a while) since having a half a billion-dollar loss in Q3 of 2021. With Zillow’s exit from the iBuyer and flipping market, other big players like Opendoor and Offerpad have come in to fill the gap. But, what about the new “Power Buyers” in the market? Will they help or hurt real estate investors? We’ve also seen a run-up in inflation over this past year, causing home prices to artificially soar (especially when paired with low interest rates). So what is the best move for a real estate investor to make in today’s market?

Is Zillow out of the iBuyer game? And why does my cash offer mean less than it did last year? Dave Meyer, VP of Data and Analytics at BiggerPockets, has heard your questions through BiggerPockets forum posts, YouTube videos, and on Instagram. This data-loving sandwich connoisseur is back to walk you through the biggest stories in real estate. As incredible as Zillow Offers was, it looks like it won’t be around any longer (at least for a while) since having a half a billion-dollar loss in Q3 of 2021. With Zillow’s exit from the iBuyer and flipping market, other big players like Opendoor and Offerpad have come in to fill the gap. But, what about the new “Power Buyers” in the market? Will they help or hurt real estate investors? We’ve also seen a run-up in inflation over this past year, causing home prices to artificially soar (especially when paired with low interest rates). So what is the best move for a real estate investor to make in today’s market? Take advantage of low-interest mortgages and all-time high rent prices, or wait for a supposed housing market crash or correction? In This Episode We Cover: Why Zillow cut their losses and exited the iBuying arena The new “Power Buyers” in the housing market and how they could help investors like you What a 30-year high inflation rate means for asset prices How to take advantage of record-low interest rates for long-term cash flow The cities in the US with the highest growing rent prices  What to look for in a rental depending on your estimated retirement age And So Much More!

Successful real estate investors will tell you the same thing: you need to automate and systematize to make time for it all, and they aren't kidding. Whitney Sewell was working as a cop when he got his start in real estate. Looking at his $35,000 salary, he realized that the long hours and tiresome, but enjoyable work, wouldn’t allow him financial freedom. Whitney wanted more time with his kids, his wife, and his beloved horses. So, he started attending every real estate conference he could go to, networking with anyone who owned any amount of real estate. He hired a performance coach, built a successful podcast, and flipped his limiting beliefs on their head, so he could tackle big deals. In only three years, Whitney built a real estate empire with over $300M assets under management. Part of his personal profits are donated to help adopted children and those who need adoptive parents. Whitney talks about how his faith and social goals have played a huge part in his real estate and how doing good must be the driving force behind wealth accumulation. In This Episode We Cover: Why it’s important to “overcommit” if you really want to succeed in real estate The “most dangerous book to reach on a beach” Why your network is your net worth and pushing yourself to connect with other like-minded investors Why wealth and faith don’t need to contradict each other Giving yourself the “thinking time” to spawn new, ingenious ideas Outsourcing and upgrading your business so you can make more while loving life And So Much More!

But you’ll probably find one type of real estate class that you absolutely love. It may take you some time, but if you’re able to find a property type that sparks your creativity, all while providing positive cash flow, you’ll know you made it. Katie Neason definitely didn't love government-subsidized rentals. She dreaded the phone calls, the repairs, and the unresponsive tenants. Katie thought that upgrading her investing strategy to multifamily housing would solve the problems. Unfortunately, after buying some fourplexes, she realized that too wasn’t for her. After trial and error, Katie found her true real estate loves: flipping, developing, and mixed-use buildings. So, she went into all three and is doing phenomenal! Katie shares a special Deal Deep Dive where she walks through a degraded downtown building that is now the talk of the town due to her smart negotiating, creative redesigns, and ability to use her network to fund the deal! In This Episode We Cover: Why it’s important to find the real estate classes you truly enjoy working on Understanding the positives and negatives that come with subsidized housing Revitalizing a downtown through smart planning, designing, and financing  Taking action so you can achieve “hockey stick” growth in real estate Working with the city so you can collectively build something that adds value to the community How to negotiate so both the buyer and seller walk away with a win And So Much More!

Or at least, that’s what Brandon and David found out. After rummaging through their bookshelves, Brandon and David decided to give listeners their top ten books that allowed them to reach financial, spiritual, and personal success. Some of these books include classics you’ve heard mentioned on the show before, while others are centered more on human happiness, problem solving, or relationships. What’s important to know is that these books can help anyone, no matter what stage of the investing journey they’re in. Whether you’re a veteran or rookie, reading a simple concept, sentence, or quote can fundamentally shift how you think about life and investing. Brandon also runs through a dozen more book recommendations at the end of this episode, so if you’ve already read through the top ten, hang around for that! In This Episode We Cover: Brandon and David’s top ten book list (for any type of investor!) Understanding the different parts of the brain and using it to build better arguments and strengthen relationships  Tweaking the “rules of the game” you’re playing in relation to wealth and happiness Taking on extreme ownership and using it to become a better leader Developing confidence and how to do so when you’re feeling lost Communicating more effectively and allowing others to see through your perspective And So Much More!

There’s usually a time when every investor hits an invisible wall and moving on to the next deal, partnership, or business can feel like a slog. When this happens, it’s a good idea to lean on experienced investors who have been through these waves of success, failure, and stagnation. Brandon Turner, host of The BiggerPockets Podcast, is back with live one-on-one coaching calls with three different investors, all experiencing some form of investor paralysis. Brandon talks to Mike who’s having trouble letting go of control on rehabs, Stephanie who’s had past success but can’t pick her next move, and Sterling who wants to build organic relationships with sellers. These three investors are in three completely different parts of their real estate investing journey, but all share some of the same headaches. Brandon walks each of them through their predicaments while illuminating some paths forward that could yield them more money, less headache, and a larger portfolio. In This Episode We Cover: Always thinking of yourself as “the general” and not a foot soldier in the war Prioritizing time with family over simple outsourceable tasks Why real estate investors need to go “a mile deep” to survive in 2021 (and beyond!)

Carla is a long-time investor and rookie to commercial investing.

Maybe buy a single-family buy-and-hold deal, or try and flip a house, or why not BRRRR? But, residential real estate comes with many challenges: complicated evictions, clogged toilets, a noisy tenant in your upstairs unit, and many, many more. But, there is an asset class you can invest in without toilets, tenants, or trash problems. Paul Moore, author, capital raiser, and real estate educator joins us to talk about his newest obsession: self storage investing. Why self storage? Maybe it’s because nobody is living in the property, or that many existing facilities have HUGE value-add potential, or maybe it’s the tax savings, or the ability to increase equity by hundreds of thousands, if not millions, seemingly overnight. There are so many reasons why self storage investing could be one of the greatest yet rarely spoken of assets in the world of real estate investing. Wondering how you can get started in this high-profit, low-maintenance investing world? Grab Paul’s new book, Storing Up Profits! In This Episode We Cover: Why commercial real estate allows you to build wealth faster, smarter, and with scale  The four strategies you can use to build your self storage empire  The massive tax-saving strategies you may be missing out on Looking for value-add that’s hidden in plain sight The seven paths a new investor can take to get started in the self storage industry Income opportunities that could turn thousands in revenue into millions in equity And So Much More!

There are so many more tenants and units, there’s a different financing structure, and what about finding the deals? At some point, many investors make the jump into the world of multifamily, and they rarely look back. One of our own, J Scott, did the same when he offered a year's worth of work for free in order to learn the multifamily game. Joining him today are multifamily syndicators and thought leaders Ashley Wilson, Brian Burke, and Joe Fairless. Together these four investors manage over two billion dollars worth of multifamily real estate. And just like many listeners, they at one point started at zero. J uses this episode as a multifamily roundtable, asking each of these veteran investors about the state of the housing market, where to invest, how to plan an exit, which strategies they use when investing, and how rookie investors can get started. Regardless of your unit count, experience, or real estate skills, all these investors believe that with some hard, creative work, you too can succeed in multifamily! In This Episode We Cover: Why 2021 was the “perfect storm” for multifamily (and whether or not it will continue) Cap rate and why it isn’t as great of a metric as most investors think it is Creating an entrance and exit plan for a large multifamily deal Finding the “value-add” that will make you and your investors more money How to analyze a multifamily market using a number of demographic metrics Transitioning from single-family investing to multifamily success Growing relationships with owners, brokers, and multifamily vendors And So Much More!

While this isn’t as easy as the simple buy-and-hold strategy of real estate investing, it can generate far more profit, equity, and appreciation than buying a single-family home or even multifamily buildings outright. J Scott joins David Greene to talk with Dan ‘The Real Estate Man’ Harvey, who has been using this multifamily conversion strategy for years after he realized how many vacant commercial properties were being under-analyzed by investors. The tactic isn’t too complicated: find a commercial property with the right zoning, convert it into multifamily housing, stabilize, refinance, and do it again! Dan says that this strategy is a slight off-shoot of the ever-popular BRRRR strategy, but with FAR more upside. Even if you know nothing about zoning, construction, or analyzing big deals, Dan will help you navigate how to do your first multifamily conversion in this episode. He even gives a direct callout to anyone who wants to help him and learn from his experience! In This Episode We Cover: Understanding the different types of zoning codes in your area Finding the “best use” of a property and using that to siphon off maximum profit How “By-Right” zoning allows investors to fully capitalize on a property’s best use Calculating future rents and value of a property after a multifamily conversion Combining residential and commercial space to eliminate vacancies on your property Building a team and finding a mentor that will give you the knowledge to grow And So Much More!

But, like almost everything else in Nolan Gottlieb’s life, he pushed through it to accomplish his dreams. Hard work and determination are what allowed Nolan to step onto that basketball court, even with a severe physical disadvantage. The same determination is exactly what allowed him to close on nineteen units in just ten months of investing. Nolan didn’t know anything about real estate; he couldn’t even describe what a mortgage was if you asked. But, as he ventured off the basketball court and became a real estate agent, he knew that agent commissions wouldn’t protect him and his family if he got sick again. He needed long-lasting wealth, passive income, and an ability to scale his success. He started out partnering with a friend on a BRRRR. It went so well, he decided to tackle an off-market deal. Nolan was able to close not only on one off-market deal, but on a fourteen-unit apartment building as well, thanks to his six steps to find “buried gold” in his market.  In This Episode We Cover: How to accomplish your goals, even if you start at a severe disadvantage Why passive income sources far outweigh one-time profits The six steps to finding profitable, undervalued off-market properties  Taking down a fourteen unit apartment building as a rookie What appraisers look for when going through your property Discovering your “why” behind investing in real estate And So Much More!

Try creative financing! No credit? Try creative financing! Ran out of conventional loans? You already know what we’re going to say...One of the most knowledgeable real estate investors around, who pretty much reinvented the subject to deal, is Pace Morby, and he’s here with us today! Pace invites four guests onto the show to ask him their most burning questions about subject to deals, creative financing, legal protections when investing in real estate, and how to negotiate with a seller. Even if you’ve never thought of doing a creative financing structure, Pace may convince you that there’s good reason to be educated on them, as it could help you save thousands in closing costs and allow you to scale your portfolio much quicker. In This Episode We Cover:  What are novation agreements and why they may be a great secret negotiating tactic    Whether or not today’s housing market shows similar signs to the 2007 crash     How to calculate profits for a potential buyer on a wholesale deal  Whether or not an LLC is necessary when buying rental properties or flips  The inexpensive team member that could help take HOURS of work off your plate    What to do when a seller won’t come down to your maximum offer   And So Much More!

But, off-market deals often require cold-calling, which is something that makes many investors’ blood run cold. So, how do you talk to a seller in the most confident, comfortable, and competent way? You start by asking the five questions Pace Morby, master of off-market deal-finding and creative financing, has laid out. These five questions were developed over years of cold calling and door knocking. They were specifically designed to walk a seller through a transaction, making them as comfortable as possible, allowing them to bring up their own limitations, and giving you the space to close if the deal fits. This is not your typical “call the seller and give them a cash offer” piece of advice. These questions run far, far deeper than that. If you’ve wanted to try flipping, wholesaling, or even just off-market deal finding, this may be the perfect episode to listen to, as a veteran investor lays out the exact questions he used to close on 500+ off-market deals. In This Episode We Cover: Why every seller has their own “bunnies” and what you can do to find them Asking questions that allow sellers to illuminate silent partners in the deal Why you should NEVER tell sellers what is wrong with their property Helping a seller create a story and allowing your offer to fuel it Pulling out missing information when initially interviewing a seller Going in for the close without becoming a pushy salesperson And So Much More!

He is one of the most educated players in the real estate game on all things related to non-traditional financing. He even taught Brandon Turner, the author of Investing in Real Estate with No (and Low) Money Down, a thing or two on today’s show! Originally working as a contractor, Pace was hired on as a flipper for some popular iBuyer portfolios. He flipped over a thousand homes a year but was doing so without building any wealth for himself. This is when he began flipping his own homes and slowly, steadily building a portfolio of rentals that would provide him with the cash flow he desired. Did we mention he did this entirely without bank financing? Since Pace is the go-to investor for all things creative financing, Brandon and David took advantage of his time on the show to ask him about subject to strategies, seller financing tips, and how he takes a seller from consideration to closing. If you’ve been wondering how to build your rental portfolio without down payments, credit checks, or preapproval from banks, this is THE episode to listen to. In This Episode We Cover: Outsourcing your business so you aren’t the driver of every deal Structuring a subject to deal and using it to create a win for the seller Why you shouldn’t be afraid to offer full price on a seller finance deal The first phrase you should say to any seller when viewing their property What to do when your “due on sale” clause comes to fruition How to find work, meet investors, and grow your brand through social media  And So Much More!

We have updated the intro to the episode and the lead-in to our conversation with Jeff Watson to reflect those developments] Inflation is big, scary, and in the news. With it comes the fear of sky-high home values, consumer goods falling in short supply, and cash positions becoming worthless overnight. With high inflation at our doorstep, we need to be smarter (and faster) when it comes to investing. Thankfully, for BiggerPockets listeners, one of the strongest hedges against inflation is real estate! David Greene and Dave Meyer are back on another episode of BiggerNews to discuss not only the cause of inflation but how to protect yourself against it in this hyper-inflationary environment we find ourselves in. Both David and Dave harp on how important it is to start investing as soon as you can, taking advantage of low-interest rates and locked-in leverage that bank financing provides. Jeff Watson, attorney and self-directed IRA expert, joins the Dave duo to talk about the proposed “Build Back Better Bill” and its consequences for real estate investors - which Jeff calls a “nightmare” for those who want to raise private money for deals. As noted at the top of this description – in the time since this episode was recorded, the sections of the bill affecting Self-Directed IRAs have been removed. We've added audio to the episode explaining those developments; we are keeping the content because it offers a glimpse into an issue that may crop up again on Capitol Hill in the future. In This Episode We Cover: What is inflation and how did America become an inflationary environment? The main causes of inflation and whether or not it will affect you Using debt to lock in low-interest-rate loans while rents continue to rise The “Build Back Better Bill” and its consequences for all real estate investors How this new bill would have potentially hurt ‘average joe’ investors while propping up hedge funds Steps you can take to protect your assets And So Much More!

While we once had a clear distinction between the two, now, we have a blurred line barely separating them. For some, this has made their life more hectic, and for others, more clear. It’s now more important than ever to define where we’re going and why we’re going in that direction. Joining David today is Mindy Jensen, host of the BiggerPockets Money Podcast, and Geoff Woods, host The ONE Thing Podcast. Many guests on the show have mentioned The ONE Thing for its simple, yet impactful message for team leaders and solopreneurs who have too much on their plates. Geoff has taken the message of this book and his organization to heart, allowing him to free up time, and live a truly extraordinary life. Geoff unpacks exactly what it means to have intentional goals and live with purpose. He is very specific on defining what truly matters to your business, personal life, and internal values, and separates those things from the rest. Geoff also brings on Jordan and John, two business partners, one of which attended The ONE Thing Retreat last year, and talks them through their long-term vision, goal, and strategy. In This Episode We Cover: The importance of striving to live an extraordinary life in all aspects  How to become more purposeful in the areas of life that truly matter Working through goal setting in partnerships, relationships, or solo Why most people don’t reach their goals or set too attainable goals Permitting yourself to dream big for a five, ten, or twenty-year vision What you can expect at The ONE Thing’s 2021 Retreat Why the purpose of a goal isn’t the result, but something far more meaningful And So Much More!

After searching for jobs, he was given the opportunity to try his hand at door-to-door pest control sales. The first week went slow, and he wasn’t able to close on a single sale. But, by the end of the summer, he had crushed the rookie sales record and walked away with $96,000 worth of commission. But now Chandler had a problem: too much cash and nothing to do with it. His friend’s father convinced him that real estate investing may be the best place to park his extra cash, so he did just that. Chandler bought a condo for $73,000. It wasn’t a great deal and he made some big mistakes, but it sparked a fire under him that allowed him to grow his portfolio to over three hundred units, through small multifamily, large multifamily, and self storage. It’s no coincidence that Chandler succeeded in real estate with his sales background, since finding off-market deals, negotiating with sellers, and raising rents all require you to sell something to someone. If you can capitalize on some of these sales secrets that Chandler discusses, you may too have a far easier time locking down phenomenal deals. In This Episode We Cover: The verbal and visual cues that show a sales prospect you’re trustworthy Why those that can handle rejection succeed not only in sales but in real estate Following the “sales logic” of preface, feature, and benefit  The huge advantage of investors buying “mid-priced” properties The differences between owning small multifamily, large multifamily, and self storage  Developing your property management team and using them to scale your portfolio And So Much More!

Looking at his Instagram, you’ll see private planes, a wealth of knowledge on real estate, and seriously shiny Rolexes. Not many people know that only a number of years ago, Max was broke, without enough money to fill up his car with gas, and sleeping at his mom’s house after ten years of failed businesses. Max tried everything from running a property management company, to marketing, to managing a restaurant, and many other ventures. None of them truly stuck, causing Max to go from state to state, trying to find a successful business model that would make him wealthy. Now, Max is well known as a master in wholesaling, rental property investing, and philanthropy.

He wasn’t cut out for the banking industry, the call center, or the classroom. Some people aren’t meant to be employed, and Nasar was one of them. As soon as he was able to get his start in real estate investing, he realized that this was a path that could help him succeed, all while challenging him in ways the W2 world didn’t. Nasar has been wholesaling, flipping, and landlording for over a decade. He has amassed a seven-figure net worth, due to his sweat, grind, and problem-solving. Nasar has put together his list of the five most important traits of any successful real estate investor. These traits aren’t what you’d hear at corporate, and they require those who are interested in investing to put in the time, energy, and creativity to thrive. If you’re interested not only in real estate investing, but becoming a full-time investor doing what you love, make sure you pay careful attention to Nasar’s advice. While these aren’t traits you can simply switch on or off overnight, they are things that you can develop over the years you are investing, which can help you build wealth, reach financial freedom, and give you the life you’ve dreamed of. In This Episode We Cover: How to invest in real estate while making a median income  Diversifying your portfolio so you have multiple exit strategies and streams of income Why every investor needs to “become a rookie all over again” Using creative financing to structure deals that benefit the buyer and seller Leveraging partnerships to find cash, divvy up responsibilities, and purchase more real estate Owning a business and learning the skills that every leader needs to succeed And So Much More!

This consistent positivity can feel forced when going through something truly terrifying, but it’s exactly what helped Jeffrey Holst fight cancer, get out of bankruptcy, and retire in only seven years. Once Jeffrey committed to having no bad days, he was able to either change his day that was going poorly or see the positive in everything around him. This philosophy helped him spur on new relationships, find new partners, and close on deals creatively. It was never “we can’t close on this” for Jeffrey, it was “how can we close on this.” He uses what he likes to call the “sideways eight” strategy that allows him to have infinite returns when investing, all while giving his partners and private lenders a sizable profit. Jeffrey also talks about seeing the positive attributes of negative situations, and how he was able to leave his job as a lawyer and hit financial freedom due to his cancer diagnosis and later bankruptcy. If Jeffrey was able to dominate the multifamily market with an underwater net worth, think of what YOU can accomplish in the world of real estate investing! In This Episode We Cover: Buying properties without credit, money, or experience  Creative financing strategies that allow you take tackle bigger and better deals Fighting cancer and using hard times to fuel your success  Managing a portfolio of two-hundred and fifty units The “last life philosophy” and how it gives you a clear path to victory  Syndicating on a small scale to close multi-million dollar deals Analyzing your market as a "boots on the ground" investor And So Much More!

There are no beards and we haven’t heard one metaphor containing jiu-jitsu lingo... That’s because Ashley Kehr and Tony Robinson, hosts of the Real Estate Rookie Podcast have taken over the BiggerPockets Real Estate Podcast! Ashley and Tony regularly talk about how rookies can get their first (or next) deal, but today they’re combining expertise to talk about something more controversial: rental arbitrage. Rental arbitrage is a form of subletting that allows long-term tenants to make massive cash flow off of short-term rentals. Someone who’s done this to an extreme is Rafael Loza. Rafael was working the night shift as his W2 job when he found out about short-term rental arbitrage. He sat on the idea for a few months, but ultimately tried out the concept on an apartment. This one apartment took home a massive profit, allowing him to quit his job and scale to fourteen units in just nine months. Now, Rafael has twenty-four active units, all grossing thousands of dollars a month in rent for him. Back in March of 2020, Rafael was projected to bring in forty-seven thousand dollars in revenue in one month alone. But, the pandemic hit, forcing him to pivot, switch strategies, and take advantage of the flourishing short-term rental market. He has his sights set on ownership, but now he’s simply raking in the short-term stacks. In This Episode We Cover: Rental arbitrage and why it’s a low-cost way to get into real estate investing Short-term cash flow vs long-term appreciation and combining the two The startup costs it takes to create an arbitrage empire How to pitch landlords on using their properties for short-term rentals Negotiating leases and adding a subletting clause to any lease you undertake Pivoting when your business hits a wall and combing back stronger And So Much More!

Ashley started as a property manager for a local investor and slowly made her way from owning one property to owning thirty-three long-term rentals, a short-term arbitrage property, two commercial units, and one mobile home park. Quite a diverse portfolio! What makes this even more impressive is that Ashley wasn’t coming into real estate with boatloads of cash. In fact, she and her husband have never collectively made more than six figures from their W2 jobs. So how does someone with a median income generate such a massive amount of cash flow, appreciation, and time freedom? Ashley discusses the five fundamentals of real estate investing that led her to seven-figure net worth. These fundamentals can be used by anyone, at any stage in real estate investing, no matter their experience level. If you’re ready to supercharge your investing and go from rookie to rockstar, commit to the game plan Ashley has laid out! In This Episode We Cover: How to invest in real estate while making a median income  Diversifying your portfolio so you have multiple exit strategies and streams of income Why every investor needs to “become a rookie all over again” Using creative financing to structure deals that benefit the buyer and seller Leveraging partnerships to find cash, divvy up responsibilities, and purchase more real estate Owning a business and learning the skills that every leader needs to succeed And So Much More!

Her business, The Short Term Shop and The Mortgage Shop not only helps find properties and secure loans for prospective short-term rental investors but also helps guide investors through their first vacation property purchase. While this type of property can be a cash flow king, it also takes more management and a bit more time upfront to get the system oiled and operating smoothly. Since we last talked to Avery, she’s quadrupled her portfolio from twenty-something short-term units to ninety-six units, sixty-one of which are large multifamily properties. Avery gives an in-depth analysis on why short-term rentals should hold a place in every investor's asset collection, and the common pitfalls investors go through when purchasing their first short-term rental. If you’d like to learn more about building wealth through short-term rental investing, grab Avery’s brand new book Short-Term Rental, Long-Term Wealth! In This Episode We Cover: Why having short-term rentals can help real estate investors mitigate risk How Avery added over seventy more doors to her portfolio in under two years The wrong vs. the right questions to ask when buying a short-term rental The five things people need to avoid when making their first STR purchase Why you may want to “bear-proof” your next cabin in the woods Not being afraid to ask questions when investing Why you should buy Avery’s new book Short-Term Rental, Long-Term Wealth And So Much More!

It doesn't just set them up to be wealthy, but it gives them the tools to be confident, choose delayed gratification, and hopefully, impact another young person’s life one day. This is understood wholeheartedly by Rashad Bilal and Troy Millings, former financial advisor and school teacher. What had started as a small classroom experiment in teaching children financial literacy turned into a media empire. Rashad and Troy shared their class teachings online, which pushed them to create a course for the kids, and later into the Earn Your Leisure podcast, where they talk about everything ranging from high-value financial concepts to sports to entertainment and more. What keeps Rashad and Troy going is knowing that their work is allowing thousands of people to improve their life situations, whether children or adults. The duo not only talks extensively about the difference between financial assets and liabilities but about relationship assets and liabilities. This helps answer the question: who’s helping bring you up and who’s trying to keep you down? In This Episode We Cover: The importance of spurring on financial literacy for young kids  How to teach your children about money and examples you can use The role that playing sports had in Rashad and Troy’s lives Assets over liabilities and why you need to invest in relationship assets as well Stocks, ETFs, multifamily, and cryptocurrency investments Staying committed to your goals and following through And So Much More!

It makes things like neighborhood research, rehabs, and tenant showings so much easier when you’re only a short drive away from your property. That’s how Dave Meyer, VP of Data and Analytics right here at BiggerPockets, feels. Dave is currently living in Europe and has invested exclusively in Denver, where he used to call home. Now, as an entirely remote landlord, he’s seen the data on how many markets (like Tampa, Florida) are doing phenomenally for appreciation and rent increases. David Greene, out-of-state investor and the man who literally wrote the book on long-distance real estate investing is here to offer some much-needed council. With David having the experience as an agent and out-of-state investor and Dave having robust housing data at his disposal, the two come up with some clear plans to invest in up-and-coming markets. David and Dave talk about cash flow, appreciation, wage growth, the investing “spectrum”, and why so many real estate investors aren’t planning far enough ahead. In This Episode We Cover: Cash flow vs. appreciation and which one matters most to you Developing your investment strategy and picking markets where it works Balancing the benefits of real estate investing and the investing “spectrum” What makes a market appreciate and cause rents to rise?

Investors were buying homes in some of the best markets for dimes on the dollar, and have seen massive profits whether keeping them as buy-and-hold rentals, BRRRR deals, or flips. While small investors started buying a couple of houses a year, institutional investors were doing far, far more. Private equity funds, along with REITs and hedge funds knew that foreclosed homes were a steal, and their economies of scale made it even easier to turn these financially mismanaged properties into appreciation and cash flow kings. As institutional investors began fixing up these homes, listing them for rent, and later selling them, the entire market moved in an upward direction. Now, first-time homebuyers are competing with these economic powerhouses to lock down their first primary residence or rental property. A man who has been covering this topic for years is The Wall Street Journal's, Ryan Dezember. Ryan has a keen understanding of what influences the housing market as a whole, why institutional investors are making the moves they are, and what this means for small mom-and-pop landlords. Dave Meyer also joins David Greene on this episode to discuss the ways small landlords can beat Wall Street at their own game. In This Episode We Cover: Why home prices dropped to the lowest point in 2011 How the pandemic gave institutional investors more buying power Who are the “wall street buyers” that are buying thousands of single-family homes? Why you should “find the tenant” before finding your next property The “carbon monoxide” of investing that most investors aren't paying attention to How institutional investors use economies of scale to rapidly rehab homes What small investors can do to beat institutional investors at the closing table And So Much More!

Today’s episode touches on many topics that relate to the BRRRR strategy, ranging from financing, rehabbing, calculating cash flow, and where to find deals. Since the BRRRR method is such a popular strategy among real estate investors, we thought it best to have an episode that touches on so many aspects of the BRRRR strategy itself. Not only has David written the book on BRRRR investing, but he also continues to do BRRRR investing in his real estate career. This strategy is not only one of the best ways to get into real estate with low (or no) money down, it’s also a method that works on building generational wealth for you in the background. Have a question you want David to answer on the next Seeing Greene episode? Submit your video submission at Biggerpockets.com/david. In This Episode We Cover: Whether you should refinance a BRRRR in your personal name or an LLC Using agents or wholesalers to find your next BRRRR property Why some markets simply won’t cash flow (and why that isn’t necessarily a bad thing) The minimum cash flow requirements for a multifamily property Hard money loans vs construction loans when performing a BRRRR How to get financing when your property is not a traditional rental or commercial building And So Much More!

This wasn’t his first game of the day, nor his second, or even his third. Jude had been sitting at that blackjack table for thirty hours straight. When the final game ended, he walked away, $150,000 poorer than he started. Jude then found the closest tattoo parlor, walked in, and got the phrase “never again” tattooed on his hand as a testament to his mistake. Now, Jude runs a rental and flipping empire, settling for no less than seven-figure profits on his fix and flips. He also runs The Brooklyn Bank, a non-profit designed to help economically empower people of color in New York City. Through his earlier gambling mistakes, Jude realized that no matter what, the “house” always wins. So, he searched for a way that he could become the “house” in his environment, and the best way was through real estate investing.

This wasn’t his first game of the day, nor his second, or even his third. Jude had been sitting at that blackjack table for thirty hours straight. When the final game ended, he walked away, $150,000 poorer than he started. Jude then found the closest tattoo parlor, walked in, and got the phrase “never again” tattooed on his hand as a testament to his mistake. Now, Jude runs a rental and flipping empire, settling for no less than seven-figure profits on his fix and flips. He also runs The Brooklyn Bank, a non-profit designed to help economically empower people of color in New York City. Through his earlier gambling mistakes, Jude realized that no matter what, the “house” always wins. So, he searched for a way that he could become the “house” in his environment, and the best way was through real estate investing. Jude has built a very strong foundation for his real estate investing through taking calculated risks, nurturing his relationships, and letting his fears fuel his fire. Jude is currently raising money to help the people of Haiti through their most recent natural disaster. Brandon and David have both pledged $5,000 each.

Your business rests on your shoulders, and why wouldn’t it, you’re the one who built it from the ground up. While it’s a commendable feat to build a profitable business, it can also be a prison sentence for many “hands-on” entrepreneurs. This is how Sam Carpenter, author of Work the System felt as he put in 110 hours a week just to keep his business afloat. Sam realized why he was working so hard without seeing results: there were no systems in his business. Once he started implementing systems and processes, he went from 110+ hour weeks to 2 hour weeks. The same happened with one of his students and now partner, Josh Fonger, who runs Work the System Enterprises where he helps business owners from over 50 countries scale their businesses with far less headache. If you’ve ever felt that your business relies on you too much to take a day off, take a vacation, or simply work less every week, these are the two guys you need to talk to. Josh and Sam were kind enough to take three live guest calls on this episode’s recording to help with their specific business problems. As all the guests are real estate investors and professionals, much of the advice may translate to your business as well! In This Episode We Cover: Why a system doesn’t need to (and shouldn’t) be complicated to design and implement Reducing your time, effort, and energy spent on work Understanding which systems need to be fixed or removed entirely front our life How to stop playing “whack-a-mole” with your business processes Why so many businesses fall behind after improving  Creating a sustainable solution that gives you (the entrepreneur) maximum freedom And So Much More!

You may look at his life and say “well, that must be nice”, but there is much more to Manny than Ferraris and private planes. A few decades ago, Manny was homeless, sleeping in a car with five other family members, simply trying to survive in America. Manny’s dad wanted to protect his son from entering the military in Iran, so two weeks before Manny’s birthday, the family packed up and left for the United States. They were homeless for a couple of months but slowly were able to find jobs and scrape together some money. Manny worked at a swap meet, a K-mart, a multi-level marketing company selling snacks, and other various jobs. As he was working he realized that the people driving the Porches, Lamborghinis, and Mercedes were all investing in real estate. After making money in his entrepreneurial endeavors, he bought his first commercial property. Now, two and a half decades later, Manny is sitting on a billion dollars worth of real estate. Oh, and did we mention he bought this all without syndicating? In This Episode We Cover: Manny’s “American Dream” story from immigrant to multimillionaire  Why commercial real estate is such a profitable investment Value-add opportunities and flipping commercial real estate over the span of a few years Which real estate industries are on the downward trend (and which to invest in) The steps new real estate investors should take to make it big Why Manny’s luxury cars are an investment, not just toys And So Much More!

Between investors, agents, and wholesalers, everyone you know wants to get a home under contract. So what do you do when there is an influx of buyers and the same amount of sellers? Start building systems that can beat out your competition and will flow deals directly to you for years to come! Now we know what you’re saying, “I wish that were possible”, but it may be easier than you think.  Trevor Mauch, founder of Carrot, spent years manually chasing after deals. Cold calling, door knocking, direct mail, and every other method you can imagine; he's tried it. While these strategies work great for many people, they’re labor-intensive and incredibly hard to scale. Trevor looked at the marketing he was doing that WASN’T outbound and realized it wasn’t only creating leads for him, but doing so while he slept. He then started building out Carrot, which helps set up agents, investors, wholesalers, and anyone else who wants off-market deals with websites that convert consistently every day. What sets apart Carrot from most “we buy houses for cash” websites is their “evergreen content” production. This content ranks you higher on google, gets sellers and buyers reaching out to you, and allows you to do less work and close on more deals.

Once finished, the top of the top go on to train for an Ironman, arguably the toughest triathlon on the planet. One hundred and forty miles of pain and pressure, broken up into a two-mile swim, a one hundred and twelve-mile bike ride, and a twenty-six-mile run. This is not a race for the faint of heart, and if you can finish just one, you have bragging rights forever. What would it take for someone to finish not one ironman, not two, not ten, not twenty, but 100 consecutive Ironman races, back to back? Wake up, swim, bike, and run over one hundred and forty miles, go to sleep, and do it all over again. That’s what James “Iron Cowboy” Lawrence did, smashing through world records and personal goals. James sits down with Brandon and David today to talk about mental toughness, creating goals that scare you, gradually working your way up to mastery, and asking “what am I willing to sacrifice to reach the end?” James had to run a business, take care of his seven-person family, and compete for more than a quarter of a year straight. If he can conquer one of the greatest physical and mental feats the world has ever witnessed, what’s stopping you from accomplishing your goals? In This Episode We Cover: Pushing yourself past the limit to see what you’re truly capable of Breaking multiple world records and developing mental toughness  Why your goals should scare you enough to pursue them Why you don’t need to 10x your output and the importance of small steps Finding what you’re willing to sacrifice to reach your goal Why every great athlete, entrepreneur, and leader needs a rockstar team  Choosing the person who “doesn’t break” under hard circumstances And So Much More!

You may be making $100 profit per month on each single-family home you buy, but what if you could multiply that profit? A duplex becomes $200 per month, a fourplex, $400, and a 16 unit apartment will net you a solid $1,600 per month. Now, it’s not a goal of buying 50+ single-family homes to reach financial freedom, it’s buying 10 or so small multifamily investments.  This simple mindset tweak can change your life and investing career forever, it certainly did for Brandon Turner, host of The BiggerPockets Real Estate Podcast and author of The Multifamily Millionaire. This pre-recorded webinar walks through the key benefits of investing in small multifamily, how to find and finance deals, risks to look out for, and scaling so you can go full-time in real estate. There are tons of tips, tricks, and free giveaways (including discount codes) throughout this episode, and if you’re looking for visuals, head over to the BiggerPockets Youtube Channel to see the full slideshow!  In This Episode We Cover How to reach financial freedom through small multifamily investing The four key benefits of investing in multifamily properties How to find deals (even if you live in an expensive area) How to analyze your multifamily deals using the BiggerPockets Calculators Financing your deals using FHA loans, conventional loans, and seller financing Risks and dangers to look out for in your next deal And So Much More!

Today, Brandon is taking on three live “coaching calls” with three investors, all in different stages of their investing career. Brandon and the guests talk through topics like scaling your business, branding your real estate company, and when the right time to hire is. These investors have portfolios ranging from a few units to more than forty, making this an episode that any investor can listen to, no matter where they’re at in their real estate investing journey. This advice is hand-tailored for each investor, and comes from someone who has made it out of that “awkward teenage investing” phase. In This Episode We Cover: How to hire out property management when your portfolio begins to grow Appealing to higher authority when you have to make tough decisions Acting like you own the portfolio you’re trying to scale to Branding your real estate company so people can trust you and invest with you Starting your own meetup if you don’t find one that clicks Understanding that “everything gets easier as you grow” And So Much More!

Sitting under a palm tree, relaxing, with plenty of money set aside for you. To be in that position you not only have to escape the rat race but pledge to live a life of continual improvement, always looking for ways you can be better. That’s exactly what Brandon Turner and David Greene did to reach their multimillionaire status and live a life of greatness. In this episode, we continue listing the ten steps to become a millionaire, with a bonus step at the end. If you didn’t hearlast week’s episode, check out episode 503 for the first five steps mentioned by David and Brandon. This time, we talk about things like harnessing synergy, upgrading your social circle, quitting the things that hold you back, searching for continual improvement, and always giving back. Think of becoming a millionaire less as a singular task and more as a continual journey. If you put in the work and follow these steps laid out by David and Brandon, you’ll have a high chance of becoming a millionaire (if not a multimillionaire) within the next decade. So get out there, meet people, make opportunities, and achieve the impossible. In This Episode We Cover: Getting on a team where your strength is amplified  Surrounding yourself with those who overachieve and push you higher Finding a way to quit everything repeatable or assignable  Doing what others view as “hard” and pushing yourself to be great Helping others upgrade their lives and giving back whenever possible Taking advantage of this strong economy to tackle as much as you can And So Much More!

What you may not know, is that a decade ago this was a very different story. Brandon didn’t grow up in a wealthy family, and by his 20s, had packed on about $20,000 of credit card debt while spending $1,000 more than he could afford each month. David grew up in a family where finances were a constant stressor, he later vowed to himself that he would never let money problems hurt him or the people he loves. Now, both Brandon and David have made the long journey from rags to riches, and through investing in real estate they were able to pull themselves up by their bootstraps and reach financial independence. Today, we talk through the first five (of ten) steps that helped Brandon and David reach this financial feat.  This is a great episode to take notes on, as becoming a millionaire is close to impossible without following most, if not all of these steps. While this episode isn’t entirely focused on real estate investing, a large part of being a successful real estate investor is financial intelligence. Even if you’ve made mistakes in the past with investments, debt, spending, or any other financial lever, following these ten steps will give you a solid framework to stair-step your way into millionaire status.  In This Episode We Cover How Brandon and David discovered their need for financial independence early in life  Thinking of money the same way you think about fitness and health Reaching huge financial milestones, even if you started out with extra obstacles Fighting lifestyle creep and never falling into the Ferrari trap  Building an income stream that is scalable, passive, and automated  The “stair-stepping” method that leads to massive wealth accumulation And So Much More!

His book, Rich Dad Poor Dad, has sold over thirty million copies and has been translated into forty different languages across forty different countries. Since its inception in 2002, Rich Dad Poor Dad has become almost every investor’s favorite book, prompting them to get out of the rat race, pursue financial independence, and teach them everything Robert’s “Rich Dad” taught him. Robert has seen numerous housing cycles, including crashes, booms, and busts. His knowledge of micro and macroeconomics is astounding (to say the least) and he has some strong predictions for the future of real estate investing and the global economy as a whole. We talk about capitalism, marxism, communism, inflation, debt, assets, liabilities, and everything in between. This episode is not only crucial for anyone who is a fan of Robert’s books, board games, and videos but anyone who truly wants to learn the game of real estate. As a general word of advice: Robert has some very strong opinions that he voices throughout this episode, and even if you disagree with any (or many) of them, it may serve helpful to listen to his full explanations of his takes. Robert has built an incredibly successful life, but started as a child of a financially dependent family, served in the marines during the Vietnam war, and has fought hard to keep capitalism alive and well in the United States, and abroad. Be sure to grab Robert’s new book, Capitalist Manifesto, and thank you for joining us for the 500th episode of The BiggerPockets Podcast! In This Episode We Cover: Why Rich Dad Poor Dad remains a timeless classic in the investing world Why Robert favors real estate, precious metals, and cryptocurrency above other assets The difference between an asset and liability, and why so many Americans confuse them Writing (and fighting) for freedom, prosperity, and wealth  Paying attention to the macroeconomic trends and using them to make smarter investing decisions The assets that Robert is bullish on in today’s market Why you need to love studying real estate to become successful And So Much More!

Essentially, anyone who can make some kind of income on their own is an entrepreneur, but there is a big difference between an entrepreneur and a business owner. While an entrepreneur can start businesses, a business owner can build, enhance, and delegate out a business. This is something that today’s guest, James Wedmore, is proficient at. James’ experience in this field speaks for itself, he’s an 8-figure CEO, a highly sought-after coach for successful business leaders, and runs the Mind Your Business Podcast. He has a unique viewpoint when looking at growth, which allows many business owners to take a step back and think “what is truly achievable?” James helps business owners grow their businesses into scalable, profitable, and successful operations. He focuses on building a “machine” that can run as a business, as opposed to a business owner doing 10+ different tasks, solely because they can. He also talks about the importance of having urgency in your product offering and giving your business what it needs to thrive, not just trying to extract what you need from it. In This Episode We Cover: The difference between entrepreneurs and business owners Why so many business owners get bored of their business Addressing the needs of your business and asking “what does it want from me?” Letting go of technician roles in a business and delegating tasks Getting rid of bad habits through mindful integrity Forgiving yourself for mistakes, self-judgment, and blame And So Much More!

This stereotype may prove true in some markets, but for Dr. Joe Asamoah, this is far from reality. Joe has built his real estate portfolio by renovating homes to an incredibly high standard, situated in some of the best neighborhoods in the DC market, and all while under section 8 housing. Joe figured out early on that section 8 housing authorities gave much more rent money for houses with 5 bedrooms and up, so he started renovating to match the rent section 8 could provide him. This not only allows him to take home a sizable profit, but score tenants who will respect his homes as their own, and stay there for 15 to 20 years minimum. This is no joke, Joe has tenants who have been with him for two decades! You’ll see a deep dive of Joe’s latest property in today’s episode, complete with pictures, videos, and other helpful visuals. If you’re only listening to this podcast, we’d highly recommend checking out the video version over on the BiggerPockets Youtube channel! In This Episode We Cover: What the “Big City BRRRR” strategy entails How to control tenant turnover so you have ZERO vacancy  Using section 8 to take in higher rents How to create a top tier product that attracts top tier tenants  Becoming the best landlord a tenant could ask for Adding bedrooms, bathrooms, and getting permits for everything in between And So Much More!

You may be thinking that these ten steps sound too easy for such a large deal, but that is part of the advice that Brian gives. Brian wants smaller multifamily owners or even single-family owners to know that buying a large multifamily property is just more volume, not a completely different skill set. If you own one or multiple units right now, you may have more skills than most to take down a 100-unit apartment building or a big mobile home park. The only thing standing in your way is the mindset. This episode just scratches the surface of what’s possible in large multifamily real estate investing, the rest can be found in The Multifamily Millionaire Volume II. As a reminder, if you purchase before the end of August 2021, you’ll get a four-week multifamily masterclass, taught by Brandon Turner. In This Episode We Cover: Why chasing larger deals leads to larger profits  Understanding the skills needed to become a successful multifamily investor Shrinking your criteria down to a micro-level, not just a macro overview Starting (or investing in) syndications so you can get into bigger multifamily deals Capital stacks, debt, and other types of financing when buying large properties Why underwriting is more than just putting numbers into a spreadsheet And So Much More!

This is why investing in duplexes, triplexes, quadplexes, and even 24-unit apartment buildings can be a fantastic learning experience and money maker for new landlords.

Brandon and his co-author of The Multifamily Millionaire, Brian Murray, walk through the seven steps to go from real estate onlooker to small multifamily master. We talk about everything from defining your criteria, financing, management, lead generation, and more. If you’re looking to build a portfolio of small multifamily properties that will allow you to break out of the rat race and do more of what you love (which may be large multifamily), make sure you not only listen to this whole episode but get Brandon and Brian’s new book! This is a two-part episode series. In part one we talk about small multifamily and in part two we talk about large multifamily, both episodes have crucial information for anyone trying to get into the multifamily space! In This Episode We Cover: The difference between small multifamily properties and large multifamily properties Financial independence vs. generational wealth and understanding which goal you have Why you don’t necessarily need to start small in multifamily Defining your crystal clear criteria and knowing what you want On-market leads vs. off-market leads and the pros/cons of both Financing small multifamily properties and house hacking The “multifamily warp” that takes you from newbie investor to multi-millionaire And So Much More!

There’s no surprise that at one point, billionaire entrepreneurs were given the choice to either stay where they stood or leap for something greater. This is something that today’s guest, Sukhinder Singh Cassidy, understands. She’s helped lead some of the biggest companies around like J Crew, Stitch Fix, TripAdvisor, and Urban Outfitters (just to name a few). The one thing that Sukhinder has found throughout her years in Silicon Valley and through writing her new book, Choose Possibility, is that groundbreaking leaders don’t just take one big risk, they take several small ones. This works for real estate investors too. If you’ve just gotten into real estate investing education, the first step for you isn’t to go out and buy a house, it’s to join a meetup, contact an agent, or even join the BiggerPockets forums. These are what Sukhinder calls the “minimum viable choice”. Don’t worry about doing everything, just do something! Sukhinder gives some great advice on leadership for those in executive business roles, plus how to find talent in this increasingly competitive market.

There’s no surprise that at one point, billionaire entrepreneurs were given the choice to either stay where they stood or leap for something greater. This is something that today’s guest, Sukhinder Singh Cassidy, understands. She’s helped lead some of the biggest companies around like J Crew, Stitch Fix, TripAdvisor, and Urban Outfitters (just to name a few). The one thing that Sukhinder has found throughout her years in Silicon Valley and through writing her new book, Choose Possibility, is that groundbreaking leaders don’t just take one big risk, they take several small ones. This works for real estate investors too. If you’ve just gotten into real estate investing education, the first step for you isn’t to go out and buy a house, it’s to join a meetup, contact an agent, or even join the BiggerPockets forums. These are what Sukhinder calls the “minimum viable choice”. Don’t worry about doing everything, just do something! Sukhinder gives some great advice on leadership for those in executive business roles, plus how to find talent in this increasingly competitive market. If you’re just starting in your career, take Sukhinder’s advice and do great work for great people, the rest will fall into place. In This Episode We Cover: How Sukhinder’s love of entrepreneurship began “Coconut events” vs. “subway events” (and how you can plan for both) Embracing uncertainty and calculating your risks Starting in Silicon Valley and building a strong reputation  Choosing to make the “minimum viable choice” whenever possible How to know whether you’re managing others or having others manage you What leaders and business owners can do to attract the best talent And So Much More!

Danny Johnson, the founder of Forefront CRM, is back with us on today’s episode to talk about the five F-words of real estate investing. Before you jump to conclusions, this is a family-friendly show, the F-words we’re talking about are fear, fundamentals, focus, funnel, and follow up. Many investors find too few deals, too few motivated sellers, or too few ways to find financing. This is all being said while other investors are closing deals, finding motivated sellers, and getting the financing they need to pursue even more deals. What separates the two from each other? Often, it comes down to the simplest things. Are you trying to be too creative or are you mastering the fundamentals? Do you know your metrics down to a tee so you can improve upon them? How is your funnel being filled and where are your leads coming through? If leads come through, are you following up or letting them fade away? And lastly, are you pushing past your fear to do any of the above things? If you feel like you’re stuck, without much of a handle on your real estate business, feel free to try Danny's Forefront CRM! In This Episode We Cover: How to create time freedom in a business largely depends on your efforts Tracking how your team performs their work and continuously improving Pushing past fear and not allowing laziness to stop your dreams  Understanding the fundamentals and performing them as well as possible Tracking and reviewing metrics consistently  Knowing the costs to fill your funnel and seeing every phone call as a potential deal Following up with customers (without being too salesy or pushy) And SO much more!

This time, Ken breaks down some of the fundamental truths of real estate investing and how it can help you, as an investor, make more money, reach financial freedom, and live the life you were born to live. Ken has been in the real estate game for decades, starting as a property manager in college, becoming a landlord with a sizable portfolio, then meeting Robert Kiyosaki and working on books, education, and systems with some of the biggest names in real estate. Ken has been through multiple market cycles, dozens of policy changes from the government, and made lots of money on many different types of deals. He has a unique experience that gives him a leg up on much of the new competition. You’ll hear Ken’s thoughts on the “affordability crisis” we may be facing in the coming years, how short-term rentalsare changing the landscape of month-to-month rentals, and how an inexperienced investor can get started with “good debt”. Make no mistake, the lessons Ken talks through in this episode took decades to learn, but you can get them all in just over an hour! In This Episode We Cover: How COVID did (and didn’t) affect the market for real estate investors Leveraging “good debt” so you can build your real estate empire When prices of labor, lumber, and new construction will flatten What the future of the real estate market will look like, and how landlords can benefit Working with the system (government, tax codes, etc.) as opposed to working against it Why great deals will always get funded (especially in today’s market!)

He did have drive, creative thinking, and the will to make something work when other people told him it was impossible. Rob and his wife moved from Kansas City to Los Angeles, trading a $1,100 mortgage on a house for a $1,800 rent bill on a small apartment. Around this time, Rob started hearing about Airbnb and short-term rental hosting. So, he decided to buy a house, keep his apartment, and try his hand at some Airbnb arbitrage. It worked, and thus the short-term rental revenue model was proven! Rob then started to Airbnb out the apartment attached to his new home. He was pulling in some solid income, anywhere from $2,000 to $3,000 a month. So what did he do next? He built a “tiny house” in his backyard for around $72,000 and began renting it out for up to $4,000 a month on Airbnb. That’s when Rob thought “what if I built ten of these?” Now, four years later, that’s exactly what he’s done. Rob has a growing portfolio of short-term rentals all across the United States. From California to Texas, to Tennessee and beyond. But this isn’t the end for Rob. His new plans? Build a massive “glamping” compound on his newly acquired 50 acres of land in Gatlinburg! In This Episode We Cover: Airbnb arbitrage and the risk of always going after cashflow Offsetting your mortgage with short-term (or long-term) house hacking Airbnb regulations and making sure you’re allowed to host visitors Building a “tiny house” and the cost associated with it Funding your deals through HELOCs and partnerships  The new trend of “glamping” and why it may be a massive opportunity And SO much more!

You may have been raised by parents living paycheck to paycheck, spurring you to chase financial freedom and create a better life. Or maybe you labored tirelessly at work to get a promotion or raise, simply to be passed up for someone else. For Adam Gilbert, founder of MyBodyTutor, his “why” is his father. Adam looked up to his father all his life but saw the pain and distress he was going through when he had a heart attack, a triple bypass surgery, and was later diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. This forged a path for Adam that materialized in the health and fitness space. Adam knew that he never wanted to be “too tired” to play with his kids, spend time with his family, or pursue a passion. As Adam has grown his business over the past decade and a half, he’s come away with many lessons that ring true for not only fitness enthusiasts but business owners as well. We talk through the five rules that Adam has put together for anyone to become healthy, wealthy, and mentally sound. While this is a mindset episode, you’ll be surprised with how many of these rules crossover almost perfectly into real estate investing. In This Episode We Cover: When to quit your full-time job and pursue your passions Choosing daily consistent action over large infrequent actions Why health is the ultimate productivity tool  Setting up “planned indulgences” and being strict, yet fair with yourself Choosing consistency over intensity and opting for small changes over time Doing what scares you until it doesn’t Accountability through partners, coaches, and friends And So Much More!

With its black sand beaches, fantastic surfing waves, and delicious poke bowls, why wouldn’t you want to live and invest there? Well, even with all those positives, many investors steer clear of Hawaii due to its high prices and lack of land, but one investor, Indar Lange, has proven those critics wrong. Indar is Hawaii’s largest flipper, running about 15 flips at any given moment, and tackling deals priced at upwards of $3,000,000! Indar is no rookie to the game, he’s been doing this for the last decade and a half, but he had humble beginnings. Growing up poor on a farm in rural Hawaii, Indar thought that his life would be set once he got his engineering degree. After realizing that engineers topped out at about $150,000 per year, Indar had to think of something else to do. He coincidently bought a small home at the time, fixed it up, and sold it after living in it for a few years. He paid zero taxes on the gain and this became his first live in flip, which caused the real estate wheels to start turning in his head. Now, he’s hooked up with some of the best lenders, agents, wholesalers, contractors, and investors in the Hawaii area, taking down massive deals for a big payday. You’ll hear Indar’s full story and catch his “Ninja Tips” for the aspiring real estate investor. In This Episode We Cover: Why real estate the go-to investment for the wealthiest people in the world  Completing a live in flip and the tax benefits associated with it When it makes sense to attend a real estate course (even expensive ones) How Indar stopped his first flip from falling through due to lack of funding Financing your deals with hard money and private money loans Long-distance real estate investing from Hawaii Cost segregation studies and other tax write-offs from real estate Indar’s “Ninja Tips” for real estate investors And SO much more!

A single-family home here, a duplex there, at the end of the day we’re just landlords, right?  What if some large corporation or outside buyer wanted to buy your real estate business from you. Even better, what if you had such efficient systems in place that you could sell your business for 10x what you put into it. Sounds pretty sweet right? Today we talk to Michelle Seiler Tucker &amp; Sharon Lechter, authors of Exit Rich and Rich Dad Poor Dad. Michelle and Sharon have spent years building and selling businesses and have defined the 6 Ps to a profitable exit. Their main critique of most business owners: start planning to scale efficiently TODAY. This can help you as a real estate investor start putting systems in place to grow your portfolio faster and with less work from you later on. If you’re willing to put in the upfront effort to start hiring right, systematizing, and opting for efficiency you most certainly will “exit rich”! In This Episode We Cover: What business owners do that costs them millions in company valuation  The 6 Ps to a profitable (and stress-free) exit Building systems that allow your business to grow efficiently  Focusing on company culture and having an employee liaison Why most business owners won’t let go of their “hands-on” role How a business is valued (and what you can do to boost your valuation) And So Much More!

Does this sound like you or someone you know? For Feras Moussa, stacking single-family properties was never the goal, especially after he had to manage his first rental investments. At some point, it becomes too hard to scale and you’re stuck with 30+ units and 30+ tenants all trying to get your attention to fix something. This is how real estate can become more of a job than a business. Feras knew this so he started venturing into medium/large multifamily investments instead. His first big multifamily deal was a 99-unit deal in Atlanta, Georgia. He was able to take a neglected apartment complex and turn it into a cash-flowing, high-value piece of property that he later sold for a sizable multiple. Now, Feras does bigger deals, like a $50M+ apartment complex that his company Disrupt Equity and Open Door Capital are partnering on. If you feel too scared to jump (or even dip your toe) into bigger multifamily investments, hear out Feras. He shows it’s a lot less scary than most people think. In This Episode We Cover: How to scale your real estate investment portfolio with medium/large multifamily The habits that a successful multifamily investor develops Networking and being more than just the “business card” person Why masterminds are a HUGE source of deals, partners, and friends Underwriting and how it differs from basic deal analysis Using “value-add” to increase the value of a property and cash flow The red flags you should look for when buying multifamily properties  And SO much more!

I mean, who wants to split half of a rent check with someone else? This can seem especially true when you’re just starting and every cent of profit counts. But, what if the path to financial freedom was through partnerships? What if you could grow your wealth, spend less time working, and scale far faster simply by leveraging your relationships. With us are the hosts of the new InvestHER podcast, Liz Faircloth and Andresa Guidelli, two real estate veterans who partnered up to teach women about financial freedom, cash flow, and everything related to real estate. Liz and Andresa are both partners in real estate and partners in leading the InvestHER community, so they know a thing or two about what makes partnerships work and what doesn’t. We talk about questions to ask potential partners, how to test out a partnership by doing a project together, formalizing a partnership with binding contracts, how to stop resentment in partnerships, and how to end partnerships that go bad. If you’re looking to scale your real estate portfolio to new heights, you’ll definitely be using partnerships to do so. Tune in to make sure you and your partner stay protected! In This Episode We Cover: Why it’s so hard to scale in real estate without partnerships  The top questions to ask a potential partner  Testing out your partnership by doing a small deal together Making deposits into the “emotional bank account” of a partnership Finalizing your partnership agreement with an attorney Keeping information flowing on both sides Preventing (and ending) bad partnerships The new InvestHER podcast!

In this groundbreaking book, author James Clear asks a complex question “why do we continue our bad habits while neglecting good habits?” While it’s not as easy as simply saying, “I want to be better, hence I’ll stop doing this”, there are some ways that you can convince (and often trick) yourself into developing the habits that will help you create a better life. The first thing to know about habits is that they aren’t a minimal part of your life. Your habits are what your life is built upon. Do you habitually clean your room every week? You’re most likely a clean and well-organized person. Are you constantly looking for ways to save money? You probably have a decent-sized bank account. If you want to become the “money person” or the “helpful person” or the “intelligent person” you need to start adopting the habits that someone in those positions would have. So how do you develop a good habit? More importantly, how do you halt your bad habits from derailing your entire life? James walks through a few key ways to do this, from making habit cues less obvious, to changing your environment, to removing yourself from the choice entirely. One thing is for certain, if you want to change your life for the better, you need to start changing your habits. In This Episode We Cover: How James developed his interest in habits and psychology Becoming “the architect” of your habits and not falling victim to poor choices Understand the end goal and slowly work your way to it Taking on the actions of someone successful and becoming that identity  Why bad habits can be so hard to break How long does it take to develop a habit? Intaking media that will change your mindset and influence your actions And So Much More!

From hair styles, to how to ask out your crush, and even saving naked swimmers on Maui beaches.  Regardless of where you’re at in the journey, every successful business owner (whether real estate or not) has to make a big business into something simple and seamless, and that’s what you’ll learn from Brandon’s keynote speech.  Want tickets to BPCon 2021?

Now they’re here to talk about the “Divided 5-ed”, a term they coined to describe the five team members you’ll need to scale your portfolio to new heights. Both Brandon and David agree that a sizable, growing real estate portfolio needs to be thought of more as a business than just a group of rental properties. Maybe you’re looking to scale into large multifamily properties, commercial properties, self-storage units, or mobile home parks. Or maybe you’re just going to buy 1,000 single-family homes. Whatever your strategy, you will need a lead generator, underwriter, money raiser, asset manager, and financer/bookkeeper on your team. You may start out doing many of these roles when you buy your first few properties, but as you scale, you’ll need to fill these roles with more fitting individuals. Maybe you want to get more experience before you start buying properties. Great! Join someone else’s team and think about how you can be the BEST in the role that you’ve been appointed to. In This Episode We Cover: The five roles that will make scaling possible (and easy) for your future acquisitions How to choose the asset class that fires you up Using DISC scoring to decide who would be best for each role How Brandon built his team at Open Door Capital using this layout Finding a team where you learn, grow, and thrive And So Much More!

We have jobs, kids, businesses, and responsibilities to take care of. Why go out of your way and risk your money and time to invest in real estate? Mike Webb, firefighter, investor, flipper, and wholesaler argues the opposite. Mike says that it’s far riskier to simply rely on your job for the entirety of your income. Mike began his investing career by investing in a side-by-side duplex, rehabbing it, and failing to complete a successful BRRRR. After seeing the cash flow and learning from his mistakes, Mike saw an investment strategy that could carry him to financial freedom. He is still working as a full-time firefighter, but is building his portfolio and completing 20-30 flips per year while he does so. This gives Mike the ultimate freedom to do whatever is best for him and his family, even though he loves his job. In a world where it seems cool for everyone to quit their job, Mike reassures those who like their work that it’s worth staying, especially to keep that investment money flowing. He also walks through his partnerships, how he hires his team members, and what you can do to systematize your business so you can outsource your work as you take on more strategic roles!  In This Episode We Cover: Why you don’t have to choose between a career and investing in real estate Learning from your first deal and using your newfound knowledge to expand Why the 1% rule and 2% rule shouldn’t be the ONLY metric you consider during deal analysis Using the BiggerPockets Forums to meet partners, mentors, and other real estate professionals The “OODA Loop” and why it’s a great tool for organizations Starting a meetup and being in the know with local investors Why working AND investing decreases your overall financial risk And SO much more!

Today we talk about the “Core 4” of any successful real estate investor's team. This includes the agent/deal finder, the property manager, the lender, and the contractor. Without these Core 4, you’ll have trouble building a real estate empire, especially if you’re doing so long distance. The good news? Even if you’re a brand new investor, you can start building out these relationships today! With the help of BiggerPockets, you can find agents, lenders, property managers, and contractors. You can also head over to the forums and chat with other investors in your area, get their take on who’s the best in the business, and use their referrals to grow your team. Are you an agent, lender, contractor, or property manager? Great! Brandon and David drop some tips on how you can attract the best clientele that will help you grow your businesses as well. The most important part of any of this is having open, honest, consistent communication with your team members and making sure nothing is falling through the cracks so everyone knows exactly what they should be doing. In This Episode We Cover: What the “Core 4” is and why it’s crucial for all real estate investors How to find an agent using BiggerPockets’ agent directory What agents can do to find clients that will close many times over Why you should never “just go for the rate” when comparing lenders Why a great property manager should be out of sight and out of mind Choosing a contractor who ISN’T just an “order taker” And So Much More!

He had left behind a successful sales career to do it and although he was highly stressed, he felt all of his hard work was going to be rewarded sometime soon. That is, until, he had a huge project that went over budget, over the timeline, and forced him into $400,000 worth of debt. Dan closed his company, went back to sales and started to think about what he did wrong. Was it the leadership? Was it the system? Was it just bad luck? Dan went to work, doing whatever he could to level up his business skills so he could get back into real estate full-time and do so in a way that allowed him to scale. Now, after going through many of life’s lessons, Dan is doing phenomenally, with him and his team closing on 12+ wholesale deals a month, getting him close to $200k in monthly revenue.

It wasn’t until Brandon started surrounding himself with people who did much more than him that he realized he wasn’t hitting his true potential. Now, leading the real estate syndication Open Door Capital, Brandon has more than 10x-ed his rental portfolio, built a life he loves in Maui, and worked with some of his heroes. This wasn’t by accident, it also wasn’t dropped into his lap. Brandon spent serious time thinking about his “vivid vision” of the future, what he wanted out of life, and who would help him get there. He’s had ups and downs, with some of his favorite employees leaving, partnerships falling through, and deals being lost. All of these proved to be valuable lessons in his ongoing work to create a mobile home empire and become the best of the best at what he, and his team, does. In This Episode We Cover: The 10 lessons Brandon learned starting Open Door Capital Why it’s crucial to have a goal for your life and shoot towards it Understanding when you’ve become complacent and finding inspiration Giving up more to work with partners who will bring you far, far greater returns Working for your employees and doing anything you can for their success How coaching allowed Brandon to open up his mind to huge possibilities Using a “Hunger Games” style recruiting technique when finding new talent And So Much More!

Someone has you in a locked position and you can’t move. You’re sweating, you’re angry, and you start feeling the will to fight flow through your whole body. Although we’re talking about Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu with the legendary trainer and black belt, Ryron Gracie, we could easily be talking about real estate. So many new real estate investors come into this space being scared of discomfort, wanting to be hand-held, and feeling like there is no way to hit their investing goals. That is until they’re put in the proper position, scenario, or matched up with a great teacher. These are the exact lessons that Ryron shares with us today. As a lifelong Jiu-Jitsu practitioner, and now a teacher himself, Ryron knows that the same lessons applied on the mat should be applied in everyday life. Lessons like: be comfortable with discomfort, never get pulled into anyone else’s fight, and change the game to fit your needs. This not only makes Ryron a financially successful individual, but a master in martial arts.  Even if you’ve never done martial arts, had any interest in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, or started real estate investing, this episode will help you change your mindset to thrive in situations where you feel lost and helpless, which is something all of us need throughout our lives. In This Episode We Cover “Emotional Jiu-Jitsu” and how to find comfort in difficult conversations Taking the fight to the ground and changing the game The crossovers between martial arts and building wealth through real estate Putting your ego and insecurity to the side and doing what’s truly best for you Realizing when you’re coming from a place of lack And So Much More!

We welcome Tony J Robinson, host of the BiggerPockets Real Estate Rookie Podcast, to the show! Tony has grown a respectable following due to his impressive short-term rental portfolio, his ability to scale quickly, and his made-for-radio voice. Tony grew up with real estate around him. His dad had a wholesaling company, and when it closed down his father relayed to Tony that his biggest mistake was failing to keep any of the wholesale deals as rentals. With this advice in mind, Tony saw an opportunity to fix up some rental properties in Louisiana. This gave him an intro to real estate funding, and after a few successful deals, he decided to dive in head first. Now, Tony has short-term rentals in Tennessee and Joshua Tree. He’s started multiple partnerships and speaks on the benefits of having reliable, trustworthy partners, plus how to avoid toxic partnerships that will stop you from scaling. He also lets us in on his free and simple method of finding out whether or not a market will work for short-term rentals. In This Episode We Cover:  The importance of having cash-flowing passive income   Why you should never treat a rental like your primary residence   Buying in markets that are heavily reliant on tourism    How to make a strong, stable, and reliable partnership    The risk vs. rewards of short-term rentals    Long-distance real estate investing as a rookie investor  And SO much more!

Only, he’s not buying these things for himself, he’s buying them for his clients, many of whom are some of the biggest names in business and entertainment. What does John Ruhlin from Giftology see in gift-giving that we don’t? First, John realized that giving regular corporate gifts, like a stress ball or a free pen, wouldn’t cut it when trying to build long-term relationships. He even went as far as to get courtside NBA tickets paired with a $500 steakhouse dinner to get Cameron Herold (a past guest of ours) on his team, only to find that Cameron was severely disappointed. So he started turning up the personalization of his gifts. Now, John sends out personally engraved knife sets, world-class food and wine pairings hosted by the best sommelier in the country, and video messages sent in physical boxes (seriously). He’s discovered the art and the science behind gift-giving and wants everyone to know what is, and isn’t an appropriate gift. As he puts it, you need to focus on your ROR (return on relationships) more than your ROI. In This Episode We Cover:  The gifts you SHOULD NOT give to those you want to impress   Focusing on ROR (return on relationships) as opposed to ROI   Have a “relationship plan” in place for clients, employees, and partners  Using personalized gifts to stick out from the competition  Taking a warm lead and turning it into a burning fire     The best gifts to give based on the occasion, timing, and relationship  And So Much More!

Today we talk to mother, real estate agent, and massive multifamily investor, Pili Yarusi, about doing what it takes to stay focused, engaged, and on top of your life. Pili moved out to New York from Hawaii with dreams of becoming a star in theater but ended up working as a bartender. Lucky for her, bartending is where she met her husband and future business partner. Together, they started flipping houses, which taught her not only to systematize investments but also to use her creativity in an efficient way. She and her husband later expanded into wholesaling. Pili knew something was missing and she wanted to focus more on growing a multifamily portfolio. With help from some mentors, she realized that the main thing holding her back was her current (and very successful) flipping and wholesaling business. She closed both businesses, got herself systematized, and went head first into multifamily. Now this homeschool teacher/mom is sitting on $75,000,000 in real estate, totaling in at 850 units. No small number by ANY means! She gives some incredible advice on what new investors need to do before they can reach their goals of owning big portfolios. In This Episode We Cover:   Limiting your creativity (in a good way) when doing flips and rehabs   The 4-3-2-1 principle and waking up with A.L.O.H.A    Identifying as the person you want to become, and letting go of less useful identities  The right (and the wrong) way to train employees and build a team   506b vs 506c syndications, plus what to know if you want to start one  And SO much more!

When he finished college he knew that he wanted to go into law enforcement to help with counter-terrorism. He scored well on all the tests needed to be a great candidate for his dream job, but when he suffered a permanent hand injury, he was disqualified from working in law enforcement. During a period where Nick didn’t know what he was going to do, his mom forced him to read Rich Dad Poor Dad, which (like many of our listeners) changed his view on making money and having a career. After the initial interest was sparked, Nick started tackling real estate deals outside of his native state of New York. He faced challenges with getting mortgages, so he partnered with other real estate investors. He needed more cash, so he started wholesaling. The 2008 housing market crash happened, so he decided to start flipping. And now, Nick is going into bigger deals like commercial real estate and mobile home parks.

When he finished college he knew that he wanted to go into law enforcement to help with counter-terrorism. He scored well on all the tests needed to be a great candidate for his dream job, but when he suffered a permanent hand injury, he was disqualified from working in law enforcement. During a period where Nick didn’t know what he was going to do, his mom forced him to read Rich Dad Poor Dad, which (like many of our listeners) changed his view on making money and having a career. After the initial interest was sparked, Nick started tackling real estate deals outside of his native state of New York. He faced challenges with getting mortgages, so he partnered with other real estate investors. He needed more cash, so he started wholesaling. The 2008 housing market crash happened, so he decided to start flipping. And now, Nick is going into bigger deals like commercial real estate and mobile home parks. Nick’s advice to new investors: think creatively, get comfortable with being uncomfortable, be in constant contact with your team, and don’t stick to one strategy.

We may have one of the biggest winners on today's show. Tim Grover, trainer to Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant joins us to talk about overcoming adversity, developing a winning mindset, finding what makes you fail, and his new book, accurately titled Winning: The Unforgiving Race to Greatness.  Tim argues that one of the hardest things to succeed in is business since there are so many factors that influence success. When you own or run a business, you’re constantly being thrown curveballs (like a global pandemic tied with government shutdowns). So how do you succeed when there is a constantly changing game plan? You adapt, you overcome, and you mitigate failure. These are the exact lessons that Tim taught to his high-profile clients, like Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant, arguably the two greatest basketball players of all time. Before MJ and Kobe became the best, they had to master being average, then being good, then being great. So many people want to take shortcuts to greatness, not understanding that mastering those different levels is what truly puts you on a different stage than those who master the average level and give up. In This Episode We Cover:  What really holds people back when they say they want something  Focusing on recovery and health before trying to up your abilities  Becoming a constant reminder to others to win and shoot for success   How to stop performing with emotion and start performing with energy   Stop confusing “finishing” with “winning”    Struggling with balance when succeeding in your career, family life, or anything else  And So Much More!

Both of them have done lots of renovations on houses, secured millions in funding, and live right next to the beach in Maui, but only one of them has won a “quickest person to get to 200,000 followers on Instagram” battle. We’re happy to have the winner on our show as a guest today! Brittany started out her real estate journey when she was 18 years old, buying her first rental property and tackling a multitude of different DIY projects. If you haven’t heard her story, you can check it out on episode 320. Now she’s back to talk about how she moved to Maui, hired out her employees, secured funding on commercial deals, and used social media to get her deals and connections. Her biggest advice to new investors, “jump in before you’re ready”. You won't ever have all the answers, but those who get started will finish far ahead of those who always dream about being an investor. You can also help ease the stress and unforeseen speed bumps by getting in groups with other investors, following those you look up to on social media, and becoming a resource for future mentors. In This Episode We Cover:   Using social media to find deals, mentors, employees, and friends  Generating leads in unorthodox ways    Fighting back against imposter syndrome and seeing your strengths  Getting super cheap interest rates when closing on commercial mortgages  Why the bigger deals tend to be the more passive ones   Why whatever you believe can end up being true  And SO much more!

We talk to Brody, Joseph, Wale, and Mike, all in different stages of their real estate journey, and all very committed to success! You’ll hear questions like:  If given the chance to go back, what would Brandon and David do differently?   What deserves more emphasis, mindset or skill set?  Is it okay to explore different opportunities at an early stage of investing?  How to find balance when SO many opportunities are exciting?  How do you make time for family, a job, side businesses, and real estate?  Why do investors lie to themselves?  Thanks again to our guests for coming on and throwing such great questions at Brandon and David! In This Episode We Cover:   Leaving your W2 job to pursue real estate and other opportunities  How to harness your mindset to grow your specific skill set   The power of house hacking, and how it pushes your portfolio forward   Scaling bigger and faster (even if it’s scary)  Developing the ability to adapt, so you can survive any situation  How to stop making promises that you’ll fail to uphold   And So Much More!

We have so many preconceived notions running through our heads at all times, and we always think that we’re the ones standing on the right side of history. What if that train of thought was secretly pushing you to failure, or even death? Adam Grant argues this point in his book Think Again. Adam hypothesizes that the main reason so many businesses, relationships, and experiments fail is because those in them tend to be locked in on one view. How many times have you been in a fight with your partner where you realize you maybe wrong, but also realize it would be worse to back down from your original stance? This is how businesses like Blockbuster and Blackberry slowly faded away while the likes of Apple and Microsoft flourished. Adam talks through some of the best (and worst) moments in business history when companies thought they were too big to fall. The same goes for political candidates, social movements, and almost any other type of human-to-human interaction. The one way you can be sure you’re coming out with the right conclusion? Think like a scientist!  In This Episode We Cover:  The preacher, prosecutor, and politician mindsets    Valuing humility over pride and stopping your ideas from becoming your identity    How ego, image, and regret play into the way we act  Blackberry vs Apple and how Steve Jobs made the right decision    Why you should give people FEWER reasons to back up a proposal  Why “super forecasters” will never let a bias persuade them  And So Much More!

The one way you can be sure you’re coming out with the right conclusion? Think like a scientist!  In This Episode We Cover:  The preacher, prosecutor, and politician mindsets    Valuing humility over pride and stopping your ideas from becoming your identity    How ego, image, and regret play into the way we act  Blackberry vs Apple and how Steve Jobs made the right decision    Why you should give people FEWER reasons to back up a proposal  Why “super forecasters” will never let a bias persuade them  And So Much More!

He’s been an IT worker, a comedian, an author, a real estate investor, and even a reality TV star. Alan has always been fascinated with making passive income in a frugal, but very intelligent way. He’s so frugal in fact, that he made up a crazy story to be on the Jerry Springer show, just to get a free trip to Chicago out of it. Talk about being committed! Alan’s real estate story starts off with buying a 1 bedroom apartment in Brooklyn, New York, hanging up a curtain in the living room, and house hacking. He then repeated this strategy over and over again, becoming a millionaire before 30 years old, with a lot of property and “good debt”. Alan is part of the FIRE (financial independence retire early) community, but instead of investing mainly in stocks, he does so in real estate. His strategy is simple: buy a rental property for every bill you have, then start inventing “fun bills” as excuses to buy more rental property. Whether you’re looking to pay off your phone bill every month, or finance your brand new Tesla, this strategy will work for you. Alan also “hides money from himself” so he can be better off in the future. Right now he’s sitting on around $8,000,000 of real estate solely from his own investments. His new book House FIRE teaches you everything you need to know about retiring early with real estate! In This Episode We Cover:  Chasing financial independence and early retirement with real estate  Taking on “good debt” so you can grow you real estate portfolio faster  Thinking of each property you buy as a “lottery ticket”    Alan’s books: A Million Bucks By 30 and House FIRE   The danger of high-interest consumer debt (like credit card debt)   Seller financing and zero cash-flow triple net leases   And SO much more!

Today we talk to real estate agent, entrepreneur, author, and Million Dollar Listing New York star, Ryan Serhant. You’ve probably seen Ryan selling ridiculously nice (and expensive) homes on TV, but today you’ll be the private audience to hear his backstory, his work ethic, and how he developed his big confidence. Ryan moved to New York to become the next big star in theatre, but after seeing the financial position of those “successful” actors he looked up to, he made a pivot. Ryan got his real estate license and started listing apartments to pay his bills, but was given a golden opportunity when an foreign buyer specifically chose him to find her next multi-million dollar home in New York City. Ryan still remembers the lack of confidence he felt when he got the listing, and knew the only thing to do was educate himself and practice his pitch. Long story short, he helped the buyer find her dream home, and the rest is history. You’ll hear Ryan talk about the importance of confidence, not only in this podcast, but in his new book Big Money Energy. Brandon and David both agree with Ryan on how important, and often undervalued, having confidence is. Not just confidence in your work, but confidence that you’ll be able to accomplish the most challenging tasks you set for yourself! In This Episode We Cover:  Selling the most expensive home in Florida  Using the pandemic to springboard a new career or venture    Taking on a task, developing the confidence, and succeeding    Leaning to own the things that make you different from everyone else  Stop focusing on the deals and start focusing on “the work”   Many, many multi-million dollar deal stories   And So Much More!

But what if you lost all you had from real estate deals, would you still be willing to bet on real estate? What if you lost it all twice? Welby Accely, has been in that position. He lost all he had, two separate times through dicey real estate deals. He never did give up on real estate, and now he’s sitting on 50 rentals and over 70 completed flips. Welby grew up in Brooklyn, and knew that his godfather was doing well in real estate, so when he got older, he decided to give it a shot. He invested in a multifamily deal in Atlanta, overleveraged himself, and had it foreclosed on him. A few years later, he had another Atlanta property taken from home. Welby was wiped out. He got scammed, lied to, and dove in too deep a couple times. After these tough experiences, he knew he had to do whatever he could to make sure his due diligence was top notch. He was later told about Connecticut, and decided to take some serious time exploring the market, building relationships, and networking. Then, he started flipping. 1 house a year, 2 houses a year, then 15 houses a year, and now 20 houses a year. Now, Welby takes young and aspiring real estate investors on “ride alongs” so they can see exactly what it’s like to be a real estate investor! In This Episode We Cover:  How crucial it is to understand your market before you invest   Never trusting a new partnership without proof of concept and contracts    Pulling yourself back up after losing tens of thousands of dollars   Putting in offers everyday so you can secure a deal   Hard money loans vs. using your own capital  Helping build other’s businesses so they stay loyal to yours  And SO much more!

Not because he’s done hundreds of millions of dollars in real estate transactions, or because he has done over 600 flips, or because he helps lead the Tribe of Multifamily Mentors. Terrance played college basketball, which grew into working as an NBA sports agent, garnering him access to famous coaches, players, and executives. Terrance and a couple of his college teammates started a franchise after college, and needed somewhere to park cash. Another teammate helped Terrance buy a foreclosure at a public trustee sale, which he flipped for a sizable profit. This is when he knew that the real money was made in real estate. Between 2008 and 2014, Terrance did over 600 flips, in multiple different areas of the country. As he learnt to build relationships and rapport with buyers, sellers, lenders, and contractors, Terrance started taking on bigger and better deals. He’s done $35,000,000 in transactions since the start of the pandemic and relies on the five basic fundamentals of real estate: know your market, be aggressive, be faster than the competition, have solid lenders, and make sure your ducks are in a row.

Maybe it’s your job, maybe it’s real estate, maybe it’s writing a book. When you sit down at your desk, there’s that little voice that says “get another cup of coffee” or “just take a little email break before you start” or “you’re not going to get anything done, who are you kidding?” This is the voice of resistance, and to author Steven Pressfield, it’s a voice that needs to be silenced and controlled at all costs. Steven should know, he wrote the book on fighting resistance, The War of Art, where he talks about how to keep up inspiration, even when there isn’t any to be found. As Steven puts it “an amateur does things when they feel like it, a professional doesn’t care how they feel, they just do it.” This is something many real estate investors struggle with. We want to buy another property, but we get stuck in analysis paralysis, or scared off by some new type of financing, or don’t want to take on another rehab. Professionals don’t let their environment (or their own mind) tell them what they should and shouldn’t do. Professionals do what has to be done. We also talk with Steven about his latest book A Man At Arms and why the ancient world of nobility and strength intrigued him so much.

Maybe it’s your job, maybe it’s real estate, maybe it’s writing a book. When you sit down at your desk, there’s that little voice that says “get another cup of coffee” or “just take a little email break before you start” or “you’re not going to get anything done, who are you kidding?” This is the voice of resistance, and to author Steven Pressfield, it’s a voice that needs to be silenced and controlled at all costs. Steven should know, he wrote the book on fighting resistance, The War of Art, where he talks about how to keep up inspiration, even when there isn’t any to be found. As Steven puts it “an amateur does things when they feel like it, a professional doesn’t care how they feel, they just do it.” This is something many real estate investors struggle with. We want to buy another property, but we get stuck in analysis paralysis, or scared off by some new type of financing, or don’t want to take on another rehab. Professionals don’t let their environment (or their own mind) tell them what they should and shouldn’t do. Professionals do what has to be done. We also talk with Steven about his latest book A Man At Arms and why the ancient world of nobility and strength intrigued him so much. If you’ve seen any of Steven’s films, read any of Steven’s books, or just want to push through to success, you’ll love his take on writing, success, and failure.

Nope! Yet, many people still believe that the only way for them to get rich is by going above and beyond for a job, only to be let go when the company is sold or merged. This is exactly what Ayoka Moss and Robert Charles thought, until they were put in a situation where entrepreneurialism and real estate was the only option. Ayoka had serious drive, especially after reading Rich Dad Poor Dad (a favorite of the BP community). Robert, on the other hand, was working as hard as he could, selling cars, breaking sales records, but once he was let go due to his company being bought out, he had open ears for Ayoka’s proposal. Ayoka and Robert decided to start wholesaling real estate, and had 6 failed deals before they finally found themselves making a profit. Once the money came in, they knew they had to do whatever it takes to reach success in real estate. Now, only a couple years later, Ayoka and Robert are living rent free, with 20 units, and 35 deals done! That’s some serious change when compared to their old W2 lifestyles. Ayoka and Robert go through how they got deals done, found mentors, and most importantly, changed mindsets to tackle what really matters.

It’sfrustrating when you’re trying to tell someone something and they just won’t listen, but what about all the times you’ve been distracted in a conversation? There are a handful of reasons why humans aren’t great at listening, but the benefits to becoming a true listener are off the charts. Better connections, more trust, and happier relationships just to tout a few. In her book, Listen Like You Mean It, Ximena Vengoechea talks about why listening is so important, and why we often get it wrong. Being a great listener is almost like having a super-power, you’ll be able to tell what a person wants and needs faster and more accurately. This can help in almost any business, but especially in a people-first business like real estate when you’re constantly talking to tenants, management, sellers, buyers, or agents. Ximena goes through the 3 qualities that are most needed when becoming a great listener and how you can put yourself into “listening mode”. She also walks through how to have difficult conversations or conversations with people who aren’t the best listeners, plus what you can do to make sure that the person talking to you really feels heard. This isn’t just a crucial trait for anyone in real estate, but for anyone who wants successful relationships with the ones they love. In This Episode We Cover:  How user research prompted Ximena to write about listening   Asking good questions that help people open up more  Cutting out the distractions and being present and mindful in a conversation     Why attention tends to waver in day-to-day conversations  The 3 most important qualities you can adopt to become a better listener  How to be more extraverted in conversations  And So Much More!

What happens when you’re hit with a $16,000 bill to fix a sewer, or when 20 of your tenants call you all at once with problems? Some things, like those examples, make active real estate investors envy passive investors. This is why Tamar Hermes decided to go on a more passive route for real estate investing.  Tamar started at age 28, working as an executive in the television industry. She realized that she was trading her time for money, and without her job, she wouldn’t be able to pay her bills. So, she put 10% down on a duplex and started house hacking. Over time she bought more and more duplexes, some even out of her 401(k). She was an aspiring landlord, but after being hit with the situations above, she decided to sell all her units in Los Angeles and put her money into more passive income streams. Now she’s invested in syndications, like Brandon’s Open Door Capital to be exact. This gives her far more freedom to pursue her passions in life, without having to worry about those 2 A.M. toilet calls. Tamar refers to herself as a very cautious investor, and that may be why she feels far more diversified with passive investing than active investing. She also talks through “finding your tribe” and how Gobundance has helped her meet friends and partners within the real estate space. This doesn’t mean you need to go out and find a group, but having friends and allies within your certain niche can help move you miles ahead of the competition! In This Episode We Cover:  Using house hacking as a way to fuel your real estate investing    The difference between passive and active real estate investing   Finding cash flow AND appreciation when looking for rental properties  “Upgrading your investing” and growing your investor mindset   Recourse vs non-recourse loans  Finding quality agents, certified financial planners, and other partners  And SO much more!

Success needs to be earned, through pain, hard work, and perseverance. Patrick Bet-David came to the United States during the Iranian Revolution of 1978, after already being a refugee in Germany. Patrick served in the U.S. Army and prided himself on his ability to party, but after a family health emergency, he decided enough was enough, and he became the hard-working, driven man he is today. Now, a successful businessman, media producer, best selling author, and CEO, Patrick has a lot of wisdom to share for young and aspiring businesspeople. One of his biggest lessons: don’t waste your pain. Patrick shows how the best of the best in business, sports, or any other field are consistently putting themselves in positions where they have to fight to be the best. Patrick argues that even if you’re the best basketball player in your high school, once you go to college you may be at the bottom of the list, and once you become the best in college, you may be stuck again at the bottom of the professional leagues. This means you have to constantly change, adapt, and improve yourself to become the best of the best. We also talk about Patrick’s book, Your Next Five Moves and how people who are masters in their skillset are thinking at least five moves ahead of their competition. Want to buy a house? What are the next 5-10 moves you could make right now to get that done. Most people do a single step, stop because it’s too hard, and leave it at that. If you want to be the best of the best, you need to think bigger and understand the importance of the sequencing of those steps. In This Episode We Cover:  Patrick’s journey from refugee to multi-million dollar business owner    Pushing yourself to perform at the highest level you possibly can   Giving your children values instead of material gifts   Thinking five steps ahead of yourself and the competition  Going through a “Personal Identity Audit” and learning to accept yourself  Entrepreneurship vs Intrapreneurship  And So Much More!

How do you even get to 100 units when it’s already challenging enough to get one? That answer is simple: stack them slowly over time. That’s exactly what today’s guest, Erika Sleger, did. Erika heard about house hacking from a lecture in college, so once she graduated she decided to buy a fourplex, live in one unit, and rent out the others. She learnt some valuable skills from that first fourplex and later sold it for a nice profit, 1031 exchanged it into an 18 unit, and started collecting rent. From there, she used her equity on the 18 unit to buy a 64 unit. Another 16 units here, some more units there, and before she knew it Erika had over 120 rental units. She acquired all of these properties through 1031 exchanges and pulling cash out via refinances for down payments. Managing over 100 units isn’t easy, it took Erika a while to find management that worked, and she was still managing her managers. Even with the best due diligence, Erika talks through the challenges of filling and managing so many units. That’s why Erika sold her multifamily properties and moved her money into commercial real estate. Now she owns “amazon-proof” commercial spaces for coffee shops, a daycare center, and even a car maintenance shop. These leases are triple net, and give her the flexibility to move wherever she wants in the world, without having to over-manage a property manager. This is what “the stack” done correctly looks like! In This Episode We Cover:   House hacking to secure your first rental property  Using 1031 exchanges to acquire more properties with no capital gains taxes   Buying LARGE multifamily properties and setting up management  The importance of due diligence when buying multifamily and commercial   Triple net leases and the benefits of commercial buildings  And SO much more!

She acquired all of these properties through 1031 exchanges and pulling cash out via refinances for down payments. Managing over 100 units isn’t easy, it took Erika a while to find management that worked, and she was still managing her managers. Even with the best due diligence, Erika talks through the challenges of filling and managing so many units. That’s why Erika sold her multifamily properties and moved her money into commercial real estate. Now she owns “amazon-proof” commercial spaces for coffee shops, a daycare center, and even a car maintenance shop. These leases are triple net, and give her the flexibility to move wherever she wants in the world, without having to over-manage a property manager. This is what “the stack” done correctly looks like! In This Episode We Cover:   House hacking to secure your first rental property  Using 1031 exchanges to acquire more properties with no capital gains taxes   Buying LARGE multifamily properties and setting up management  The importance of due diligence when buying multifamily and commercial   Triple net leases and the benefits of commercial buildings  And SO much more!

If you've listened, you may recognize DJ Envy’s voice. He’s here today with his partner Cesar Pina, to talk real estate, seminars, and business. DJ Envy grew up in Queens, New York, and was neighbors with a successful DJ. After he heard how much money DJs were making in the city, he decided to start DJ-ing himself, and began releasing mixtapes. As his success grew, he started working for a radio station and landed a morning show, which later became known as The Breakfast Club. After buying his first house and later selling it due to a long commute, Envy walked away with around $80,000. He was hooked, and knew that real estate was a long-term way for him to build his wealth and create success for him and his family. He started out buying a house every year and selling it a year later, then bought some homes in Detroit for $15,000 that sold for over $260,000! Envy wanted to get more into real estate, so he was introduced to Cesar. Cesar was serving time in prison when he first learnt about real estate investing. Once he was released, he decided to jump in. He bought single family homes, then small multifamily homes, then went on to commercial buildings. Now, heowns more than 1,600 units and flips anywhere from 60 to 80 houses per year! His new book, Flipping Keys, comes out later this month. Cesar and Envy became an unstoppable duo, and now they're teaching others how they too can buy rentals and flip houses. They see this as a way to serve their community and let those who may be unaware of real estate investing have a chance at success and financial freedom. In This Episode We Cover:  How DJ Envy started buying and flipping homes    Buying homes under market value to make high profits  Why house hacking is the best way to get started in real estate   Buying in Detroit during the early days of the recession    How to use other people’s money (OPM) to fund your deals  Why most real estate seminars take more than they give to attendees  And So Much More!

Rachel Richards, real estate investor, agent, and author of Money Honey shares her story of aggressive real estate acquisition. All purchased, by the way, with at least 20% down! While her friends in high school may have been reading for fun, Rachel was reading Rich Dad Poor Dad and trying to find the best way to become financially free. After she graduated from college she took jobs where she felt underappreciated and at some points, humiliated. She realized that this was not the path she would go down, and started investing shortly after in 2017. By 2018, Rachel and her husband had acquired 38 doors. Yes, you heard that right, 38 doors in under two years! These rental properties allowed Rachel and her husband to retire, as they were making six-figure incomes solely from their properties alone. This didn’t mean two years in she was still a rookie. Far from it actually. Rachel had to systematize her rental properties as much as she could within those two years so she could manage them long distance without having huge headaches along the way. Rachel shares some interesting stories, from turning a duplex into a short-term boarding home, to catching her property managers stealing over $6,000 from her. She’s learnt a lot and put her knowledge into her books Money Honey and Passive Income, Aggressive Retirement, both of which may help you get to where she’s at now! In This Episode We Cover:  Understanding how important financial independence is to your life   Dismissing limiting beliefs that you can’t or shouldn’t do something   Seller concessions and how you can use them to get more money at closing    Why being too frugal may lead you to lose more money in the long run   Systematizing your long distance real estate investing  And SO much more!

Steve was actually an engineer at Intel before he made the leap to become an agent. As luck would have it, Steve got in right as the market was about to tank in 2007/2008. Did this stop him from finding success? Of course not! Steve was interested in real estate, and after finding out what agents did for a living, he knew he needed to make a career switch. He left his corporate job and headed into real estate, trying to get any leads he could as an agent. His prior employer, Intel, told him that he was welcomed back if he ever needed a job, but when he tried to come back a couple years later, they didn’t have a position available for him. He knew the bridge was burnt, and it was time for him to go full throttle on real estate. Now, a decade or so later, Steve is teaching his tips and tricks to aspiring agents, wholesalers, and de al finders alike. He has a very specific hiring process, and will only start to evaluate a candidate that fits into his time-tested requirements. This helps him weed out potential employees and keep only the serious ones around. Steve gives some pointers on the best cold calling tips, the common mistakes that newbies make, and how to mitigate rejection when a cold call goes sour. If you’re afraid to cold call or afraid of being rejected in general during real estate prospecting, Steve talks through how he uses rejection to hit the successful metrics he needs! In This Episode We Cover:  What type of person should be a real estate agent?  Knowing that real estate is a long-term success game, not an overnight win  Using PPC (pay per click), direct mail, and cold calling to get leads    How to hire employees that want success, not just a paycheck  Having regular, but efficient meetings with your team  The top cold calling tips for those who are prospecting   What to do if you’re afraid to cold call (or afraid of being rejected)  And SO much more!

We often see people bragging about how they work 60 hour weeks, work on weekends, or spend the most time at the office or in front of their computer. Does this constant overworking actually accomplish something or is it more of a chest-beating competition? Michael Hyatt argues that working crazy hours rarely does anything for our productivity, and if anything, can make our work sluggish and dull. He should know, in the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic as teams were working more than ever from home, Michael decided to do the opposite. Michael lowered his (and his team’s) working hours from 40 hours a week, to 30 hours a week. The result? A profit increase of nearly 100% and company-wide productivity boost. Not only does your work quality benefit, but so do your relationships, your health, and your outlook on life when you are off of the “grind mode”. Michael believes this so much that he wrote a book about it. Win at Work and Succeed at Lifegoes through what Michael calls the “double win”: winning at life and work, with no tradeoffs! Michael lists a handful of ways you can instantly improve your work/life balance. Tips on sleep, nutrition, and getting your “daily big 3” done so you can accomplish goals that matter, instead of just being productive. If you ever feel like a workaholic, these tips will help you align back to a productive yet enjoyable schedule. In This Episode We Cover:  Fighting the “cult of overwork” especially when working becomes a bragging right  How to keep your business running at full speed while having time for your family  The importance of putting up “hard boundaries” so your day can be respected  Identifying the “big 3” tasks that you need to get done everyday   How to implement “double wins” in your life  Knowing which work is important and which work can be put on hold  And So Much More!   Links from the Show  BiggerPockets Podcast  BiggerPockets book store  Brandon's Instagram  David's Instagram  BiggerPockets Podcast 363: How to Work (Way) Less but Accomplish (Way) More in 2020 with Michael Hyatt  Click here to check the full show notes: https://www.biggerpockets.com/show451]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">gid://art19-episode-locator/V0/uMgx-yge751pkYyTuTunjY84Ss9Xhlj6j5_HcwUfgcI</guid><pubDate>Sun, 14 Mar 2021 07:00:00 +0000</pubDate><enclosure url="https://api.spreaker.com/download/episode/75657334/bigpoc1614178763.mp3" length="66759467" type="audio/mpeg"/><itunes:author>vfr</itunes:author><itunes:subtitle>Does it ever seem like working overtime is a competition?

At some point, all of us were. How do you make sure you’re getting a great deal, how should you pay for it, and what can you do to make sure it’s a purchase that will help you grow your wealth. In today’s episode, you’ll hear from Scott Trench and Mindy Jensen, hosts of the BiggerPockets Money Show. Their new book, First-Time Home Buyer, shows how to buy your first property in a way that sets you up for long-term success. Most people see their primary home as an investment, but that isn’t usually the truth. Housing is a cost, and like many costs in life, we should try to minimize it when we can. Having a lower housing cost can allow you to invest more of your money, build up safety reserves for repairs, and have the financial bandwidth to live with less stress.  Scott and Mindy debate cash flow vs appreciation, how much you should put down on your home, and what kind of liquidity position you need to be in to find success in your purchase and future endeavors. Even if you’re not looking to build a rental empire, this is a fantastic book for anyone who is looking into buying for the first time. Don’t know about equity, title insurance, or other real estate terms? No problem! First-Time Home Buyer has you covered.  In This Episode We Cover:  What will 2021 hold for real estate investors and first-time home buyers  Is appreciation or cash flow a better metric to measure  How to have a primary residence that sets you up for long term wealth    The 5 steps to finding a great deal on a primary residence     Looking at the market even when you’re not ready to buy   What people get wrong when they buy a home  And SO much more!

Once distracted, our brains find it hard to let go of the new information we’ve just learnt or seen. This is why the constant onslaught of emails, messages, texts, and phone calls could be killing our productivity and creativity. Cal Newport, author of A World Without Email, has seen this first hand. Cal discusses something he likes to call “Hyperactive Hivemind Workflow”, which is essentially what happens to our brains when we’re constantly being nudged by electronic messages. When you’ve got your head down and are working hard on an important project, just a simple glance at an email can spin everything out of whack. Here’s the thing, this is happening to all of us, all the time. We are constantly monitoring our emails and messages, and by the mid afternoon, we’re out of energy. We’ve exhausted all of our cognitive resources. But isn’t it productive to check emails and respond to them quickly throughout the day? This is what Cal refers to as the “fool’s gold of busyness”. Luckily, there are some ways to get us into a more productive state, without having a barrage of emails in our inbox. Cal talks about efficient meetings, Kanban boards, restricting ad hoc communication, having office hours, and being intentional with your time and attention. While these small email responses may seem like just a minute here or a minute there, they actually eat up a huge part of our work life. In This Episode We Cover:  Why we need to limit our intake of email, messages, and other communication throughout the day  Getting your team to be less ad hoc about communication and more intentional  Having a “process and procedure first” mindset when starting a business  Understanding what the “vital tasks” are in your business  Knowing your cognizant footprint and having intentional attention  And So Much More!

If you feel that way, listen to today’s guest, Dion Mcneeley as he describes his own system for buying real estate the “lazy” way.  Dion was a police officer and a truck driving instructor, taking care of his kids as a single parent, and struggling to get ahead. He went from $89,000 in debt to becoming debt free and financially free, thanks to the help of rental properties, in just 10 years.  After buying his primary home, Dion heard of success in owning rental properties, so he decided to move out of his house and into an apartment to see if he fit as a landlord. He rented the house to his friend, who later moved out without notifying him. Dion tried to make landlording work with another tenant, but ended up being underwater on the house payments. This is when he found BiggerPockets and read Rich Dad Poor Dad.  What was Dion’s mistake? He wasn’t running his rental properties like a business. After upgrading his processes, he went on to buy and house hack a duplex. Then he bought another duplex as an investment, and another one, then another house hack duplex. Within just 6 years, he had 7 units and was raking in $2,700 a month in pure cash flow! Dion talks about the mistakes he made, why he prefers side-by-side duplexes, how he’s located his properties for maximum asset protection, and goes into his amazing strategy for getting tenants to sign longer leases and raise their own rents. You can check out Dion’s Youtube channel or find him on the Real Estate Rookie Facebook Group! In This Episode We Cover:  Why being lazy can be a benefit when building systems for real estate   How to use your job and your rentals to achieve a 100% savings rate   The benefit of side-by-side duplexes as opposed to two-story duplexes  Making sure that your procedures are easy so they can be repeatable    Getting tenants on longer leases and higher rents with the “Binder Strategy”  Spacing out rentals so you have a large pool of tenants to choose from   And SO much more!

What do you want to accomplish in the next 3-5 years? When asked this question, most entrepreneurs give a pretty simplistic answer. Something like “Oh, we’ll get more clients by this time next year” or “I’ll buy two more houses and then I’ll be happy”. How often do we sit down and paint a picture of what we want our life to look like? Today we’re discussing Vivid Visions with their creator Cameron Herold. Cameron is a veteran in the business world, he likes to say that he was “groomed” by his entrepreneurial grandparents and father to become a success story. By the time Cameron was 21, he had a full-on business that had 12 employees, and at 22 he bought his first rental property. He later became a franchisee for College Pro Painters and was so successful that he went on to coach new franchisees. He’s partnered with hundred-million dollar companies, grown and sold businesses for millions, coached the CEO of Sprint, a monarchy in the middle east, has written 5 books, and runs the Second in Command Podcast, where he talks to successful COOs. Cameron is someone who clearly has accomplished a lot and has a TON of wisdom to share. Cameron has serious knowledge on business management and talks about the importance of the CEO and COO relationship. Cameron describes how a COO needs to be a partner to the entrepreneur (the CEO) and operate as the ying to the CEO’s yang. If you’ve heard the terms “the visionary and the innovator” from books like Traction, this is exactly what Cameron is talking about. If you’ve been wondering where the idea of a “plan” or “vision” comes into play, Brandon, David, and Cameron all discuss their “Vivid Visions” and how it’s led them to success in their life. Cameron coined the term “Vivid Vision” because most entrepreneurs were simply writing down a 1-2 sentence mission statement instead of creating a vision of what they wanted their company and future to look like. This vision not only helps you build a life you want by design, it also entices great executives, employees, and partners to join you on your path to that clear and decisive “Vivid Vision”. In This Episode We Cover:  How Brandon found out about the “Vivid Vision” and how it has changed his worldview since creating one  Why Cameron decided to coach COOs as opposed to CEOs   The importance of having a COO or 2nd in command that you trust and believe in   Why your job postings should scare those who aren’t ready to take risks and grow  Why entrepreneurs have such a hard time when letting go   How to create your “Vivid Vision” in 7 steps  What a great “Vivid Vision” looks like, what it includes, and how to structure it  And So Much More!

Maybe you have it right now and that’s why you’re listening to this episode! Kyle and Lauren Clugston would call that “productive procrastination”, and the only way to get out of it is to move forward! They should know, it took them over 3 years before they made their first move in real estate investing!  In college Lauren stumbled upon Brandon’s old blog about real estate investing. As she read, she gained more confidence in the craft, and knew that real estate was what she wanted to do with her money. She then started trying to convince her partner, Kyle, that real estate investing was the way to go. As someone without an investing background, Kyle was hesitant, but took a leap of faith which paid off! Now they're BRRRR-ing their way through New Jersey, with single family and multifamily properties throughout the state. Lauren and Kyle had to learn a lot before they became the real estate success stories they are now. Things like doing inspections, estimating rehab costs, getting financing, setting up systems and procedures, and getting legal documents prepared were at one point a great challenge to Lauren and Kyle. Now, they’ve got them down! Lauren and Kyle lay out everything they wish their former selves had known, and go through the things that early real estate investors should worry about, and the things they definitely shouldn’t lose sleep over. This advice could save months, weeks, or hours off of your deal analyses and might be just the thing you need to get out of analysis paralysis!  In This Episode We Cover:  Why house hacking is such a great strategy for new investors   Focusing on the right metrics, whether it be cashflow or units  Defining your specific roles as partners and investors    The importance of weekly meetings with your team  Setting up your real estate to run like a business, not just a hobby  How to put together an “invest with us” packet for private lenders  And SO much more!

As someone without an investing background, Kyle was hesitant, but took a leap of faith which paid off! Now they're BRRRR-ing their way through New Jersey, with single family and multifamily properties throughout the state. Lauren and Kyle had to learn a lot before they became the real estate success stories they are now. Things like doing inspections, estimating rehab costs, getting financing, setting up systems and procedures, and getting legal documents prepared were at one point a great challenge to Lauren and Kyle. Now, they’ve got them down! Lauren and Kyle lay out everything they wish their former selves had known, and go through the things that early real estate investors should worry about, and the things they definitely shouldn’t lose sleep over. This advice could save months, weeks, or hours off of your deal analyses and might be just the thing you need to get out of analysis paralysis!  In This Episode We Cover:  Why house hacking is such a great strategy for new investors   Focusing on the right metrics, whether it be cashflow or units  Defining your specific roles as partners and investors    The importance of weekly meetings with your team  Setting up your real estate to run like a business, not just a hobby  How to put together an “invest with us” packet for private lenders  And SO much more!

We’ve had writers, speakers, businesspeople, and actors, but this may be the first rapper we’ve had with us. Chris Greenwood AKA Manafest is in the studio, and instead of recording beats, he’s recording the best lessons he’s learned through his music career, real estate investing, and online business. Chris started out like many of us, working a stable job for a large corporation. After years of doing music on the side while working his full time job, he decided to take the jump and make rapping and rocking his career. Chris is the first to admit that this may not have been the best financial decision, and staying on the job for a little while longer could have relieved him of a lot of headaches. That being said, Chris didn’t just survive, he actually thrived in the music scene. When Chris and his wife decided to move out of their condo to upgrade to a larger home, they brought up the idea of renting out the condo instead of selling. This opened Chris up to the world of real estate investing, and as he saw the checks start to come in, he realized that this was a money maker that could help bring in stable income, passively while he worked on his music. Now Chris owns various properties and mainly buys from turnkey companies. Brandon, David, and Chris all have their own opinions on turnkey real estate investing, but they all agree on one thing: for those that don’t have much time to be an active investor, it’s a great way to start or stack up rental properties. Aside from rentals and rapping, Chris developed his own online course to teach other musicians how to successfully market their music in an industry that has such a high barrier to entry. Chris talks through how he separated himself from all the other “course gurus” and how you too can serve as an authoritative figure in your own community with knowledge, experience, and perseverance. In This Episode We Cover:  How Manafest got his start in music (and why he made the jump to full time)  The struggles and benefits of working a full-time job and pursuing your dreams    Renting your primary residence instead of selling when you move out  Not getting sucked into the “you’ll have to fix toilets” fear of real estate investing     Turnkey rentals and why they may (or may not) work for your investing strategy   Having the drive to help people before you ask for money or a sale   Chris’s book From Red to Black   And So Much More!

Today we talk with Cole Ruud-Johnson, a wholesaler and flipper out of the Seattle area. The impressive part? He’s 22 years old and has done 150+ deals to date! Even at 22, Cole’s journey wasn’t a linear path, he had lots of ups and downs to get him to the level of success he achieves now.  Cole tried to be a real estate agent at 18, but wasn’t getting the hang of it. After failing at a couple of real estate brokerages, he entered into a third and learned how they were creating their own inventory via cold calling. He decided he’d give this a try, and partnered up with his friend to cold call for deals. After three months, an agent brought them their first off-market deal. This first deal alone netted them $105,000. Yes, you read that right, six-figures on ONE wholesale deal. This wasn’t enough for Cole, he knew he had to get back out there and work on getting his next deal. Cole’s small business grew to a small empire, but over time this pushed him into a massive burn out. He had to make some BIG changes in his business, many of which even business veterans wouldn’t be comfortable doing.  Now he’s here with us on the podcast, talking through his lean team, his deals, his systems, and how new wholesalers can start getting deals. Cole even throws in the script he uses to get wholesale deals over the phone, so if you’re thinking about getting off-market deals or starting your wholesaling journey, this is the episode for you! In This Episode We Cover:  How wholesaling and off-market deals can net big profits  Why you need to be consistent when cold calling    The script that Cole uses to get off-market and wholesale deals  How to scale your business (and prevent massive burnout)   Growing slowly to scale, instead of fast and crashing  The types of lists that Cole and his team pull  Keeping the flow of communication open between you and your partners   Taking action instead of just taking in information  And SO much more!

As a result, he lacked focus in school, wasn’t able to read properly, and at one point, a teacher told him that he had a “broken brain”. So how did a kid with a “broken brain” become the leading mental coach for athletes, CEOs, and movie stars? Simple: Jim looked into how to learn instead of what to learn. Soon enough, Jim was reading faster, memorizing with higher accuracy, and doing well in school. His friends asked him for some tips so they could improve their grades as well. With some success in his inner circle, he decided to make a flyer for speed reading and memory improvement classes. He put up the flyer at his college hoping one or two people would show up to his impromptu class. Over 100 students showed up, of which 71 signed up for a full course with Jim. After that, Jim knew it was his life mission to help those who wanted to learn, memorize, and live better. So why is it so hard for some people to memorize things? We forget details all the time, whether it be names, addresses, phone numbers, or other important information. Jim goes through a simple method to memorizing any piece of information, called the M.O.M system. He also outlines 10 tips for a limitless brain, many of which you can implement soon after you finish this episode! Even something as simple as reading slightly faster can allow you to save weeks worth of time each year. So if you’ve been beating yourself up over forgetting that one seller’s name, check out Jim Kwik’s podcast and his new book Limitless. As Jim puts it, increasing your memory and reading power not only adds years to your life, but life to your years! In This Episode We Cover:  How Jim recovered from a traumatic brain injury as a child  Why school teaches us what to learn, but not how to learn    Increasing your reading speed so you can finish tasks faster  How to remember important things like names, addresses, and phone numbers  The 3 keys to a better memory   The 10 tips for a limitless brain (including diet, exercise, and learning)  How to learn anything faster (no matter what it is!)

That’s because Bryce was on Episode 276 where he gave the great metaphor “vacuuming out the truck” relating to real estate investments. Bryce is back to talk about being a great mentor/mentee, what every contractor needs before working on a rental, how to go from active to passive real estate ownership, and his new book House-Hacker’s Guide To The Galaxy. Bryce understands what it’s like to be a new investor. Every step seems hard, the end result seems almost impossible, so where do you even start? Simply, take a step forward, no matter how small it is. Even just starting to save a few hundred bucks a month can be your first step towards becoming a real estate investor. As time goes on, these small steps become giant leaps, and what seemed impossible at first, can now be doubled since you have the know-how. Bryce takes us back to a time where he didn’t know how to get his property taxes lowered, but through very incremental steps was able to make a case and save himself thousands of dollars in the long run. Looking for a mentor? Stick around to hear Bryce’s top piece of advice for any new real estate investor. This simple tactic can help beginner investors know more about what they’re getting into and also show the mentor they’re serious about their new interest. In This Episode We Cover:  Why small steps can lead to massive leaps in real estate investing  How to go from an active to a passive investor   Why newbies should know what collateral is and how it affects their loans  What every contractor needs to have before they work with Bryce  A specialized and creative new BRRRR strategy   What you can do to get your foot in the door as a real estate investor  And SO much more!

How Former Tight End Hakeem Valles Grew His Real Estate Portfolio</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/441-house-hacking-as-an-nfl-player-how-former-tight-end-hakeem-valles-grew-his-real-estate-portfolio--75657474</link><description><![CDATA[When most people think of professional athletes, they usually think of superstars being paid millions every month (or even every week). Most people don’t come to realize that for everyone on an NFL team, that pay grade isn’t as high. That too, is what Hakeem Valles found out after being signed on by the Cardinals. Hakeem wasn’t making a lot, and realized that he was essentially throwing away $2,000 a month on rent. After one season with the team, he decided to go on BiggerPockets and ask around for agents and leads in the area. Hakeem ended up with a LOT of responses and found a great agent who helped him close on a fourplex, which he house hacked while practicing with the team. It’s hard enough to house hack when your tenants know you’re the owner, but it can be even harder when your tenants know you’re an NFL player. Hakeem’s advice: be a tenant of your own property and don’t let the other tenants know that you own the place. Doing this can help reduce some awkward encounters you may have. After retiring, Hakeem went on to do bigger real estate deals and partnered up on a 40 acre farm! He also owns Perspective Global Media, where he counsels other real estate professionals on how to grow their reach through social media platforms like TikTok and LinkedIn.

Most people don’t come to realize that for everyone on an NFL team, that pay grade isn’t as high. That too, is what Hakeem Valles found out after being signed on by the Cardinals. Hakeem wasn’t making a lot, and realized that he was essentially throwing away $2,000 a month on rent. After one season with the team, he decided to go on BiggerPockets and ask around for agents and leads in the area. Hakeem ended up with a LOT of responses and found a great agent who helped him close on a fourplex, which he house hacked while practicing with the team. It’s hard enough to house hack when your tenants know you’re the owner, but it can be even harder when your tenants know you’re an NFL player. Hakeem’s advice: be a tenant of your own property and don’t let the other tenants know that you own the place. Doing this can help reduce some awkward encounters you may have. After retiring, Hakeem went on to do bigger real estate deals and partnered up on a 40 acre farm! He also owns Perspective Global Media, where he counsels other real estate professionals on how to grow their reach through social media platforms like TikTok and LinkedIn. Hakeem drops some gems towards the end of this episode on how you too can use TikTok to gain followers, clients, and partners!

Meet Daniel Iles, a TikTok and Youtube creator who bought a staggering $1,000,000 in real estate during his first year of investing. Daniel was able to amass this serious sum of real estate while only putting $23,000 down. Now that’s impressive! Due to an aggressive goal of reading 60 books a year, Daniel picked up a book that many of our listeners have heard of, Investing in Real Estate with No (and Low) Money Down from our very own Brandon Turner. This unlocked the potential of investing in real estate for Daniel. He took advantage of FHA loans, using equity as down payments, and building his credit to get loans from small credit unions and banks. Daniel now owns 9 units and a combined valuation of almost $1,500,000, still with almost no money down. Daniel stresses that his success comes from systems. Whether it’s systems about credit cards, loans, tenant management, deal analyzing, or anything else related to real estate investing, systems are the key to keeping your sanity when things go wrong. He also has some tips for new investors trying to acquire a lot of real estate, in a small amount of time. Creating these systems for scaling will allow you to make smart decisions and invest in a way that doesn’t push you to burn out. In This Episode We Cover:  Using TikTok as a creator, not a consumer, to connect with influential investors   How Alaska real estate compares to continental United States real estate  Securing houses with low or no money down   Using equity in a house as the down payment   Why small banks and credit unions may be more flexible when funding deals  What Daniel looks for in his rental properties    Tenant management systems for simpler investing  And SO much more!

Kevin learnt about Marie Forleo though his wife suggesting he take some of her advice when transitioning into his current position at BiggerPockets. A simple trick from Marie helped Kevin make some big decisions: see if your body expands or contracts when you think about two different options. This trick, along with her insight on writing your options down in order to take a step back from your situation, has helped Kevin make some hard decisions. If you listened to last week’s show, you’ll remember that Marie touched on how important marketing is in any industry. Whether you’re a real estate agent, a buy and hold investor, or a flipper, you have to be marketing to get clients, deals, and even employees. How are you differentiating yourself in the market, and what can you do to be “that guy” or “that girl” in your specific industry? You’ll also hear a special tip on how Kevin lost a deal to another buyer, and the exact tactic that the other buyer used to get the property under contract. Kevin goes through why this is such a great tactic for making sellers comfortable and how you can deploy it in your future deals as well.

Every time he’s back we learn something new, and today, Anson is talking about how to find and fund great deals, regardless of your schedule, or budget. You don’t need to be a full-time real estate professional to find great deals, just be sure to follow Anson’s advice. If you haven’t heard Anson’s prior episodes, here’s a recap. Anson has touched on almost every aspect of real estate investing. He flips, he wholesales, and he sells houses as an agent, meaning he has a huge amount of knowledge to share to BiggerPockets listeners. On average, Anson is doing 12-15 flips a year, 10 wholesale deals a year, and a dozen or so sales a year as an agent. Anson has some great advice on finding off-market (and on-market) deals that include driving for dollars, door knocking, and list building. He also shares how to build a profitable list, what neighborhoods to look into for deals, and how to specify what type of home you’re trying to get depending on your goals. If you’ve been trying to get your foot in the door to real estate investing, Anson shares why many people have trouble at the start. It all comes down to consistency. If you’re new, it may be fun at first to start driving for dollars, but are you doing it consistently? Do you have an accountability partner that can hold you to a high standard to get the work done? Are you systematizing your leads or trying to juggle them all in your head? We also talk about Anson’s fantastic book Finding and Funding Great Deals, where you can find everything you need to find and fund your next real estate deal. We’re also happy to announce the BiggerPockets Book Club, where you can hear from Anson live and ask him questions about his deals, his book, and his portfolio! In This Episode We Cover:  How to find profitable deals in hot markets    Determining your goals and aligning them to your investor strategy    What to do if you struggle with consistency in real estate investing   How to analyze not only your deals but your market as a whole   What to look for in niche lists when prospecting off-market deals  Hiring out jobs to get your lead funnel filled  How to have your letter stand out when doing direct mail marketing   And SO much more!

Whether it was retiling the bathroom, fixing a leak in the roof, or performing electrical engineering on small appliances, her mother seemed to be able to figure out almost anything. One day she told Marie “everything is figureoutable”, which became the mantra for her career. Fast forward a decade or so, Marie is working on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange, surrounded by the mega rich. She was stressed out and felt that she wasn’t in the right place. After a prayer and a cry, Marie knew she needed to get out from a job that was slowly killing her. She made the jump and went after coaching, without any experience, money, or clients. Before she left her job she asked herself, “what is the worst case scenario if I leave”. She calculated it out, wrote it down, and realized, the worst case scenario really wasn’t all that bad. Marie strongly believes that although you can be a victim of circumstances, you should never victimize yourself and tell yourself that you “can’t” do something. Everyone has the ability to reach their full potential, but once you start putting up excuses, it’s hard to get there. “Feel the fear”, that’s what Marie told herself in those trying times, and continues to tell herself and her clients that everyday. As she puts it “Fear is really trying to tell you to move towards something”. As real estate investors, this is something we can all relate to, but often don’t put into practice. Well, now's the time to! In This Episode We Cover:  The 3 rules of “everything is figureoutable”  The power of neuroscience and how you can use it to shape your behavior   How would you behave if you were the best in the world at your job?   Changing your limiting beliefs to reach something greater  Knowing when to leave a bad job and having a plan for the worst case scenario   Feeling the fear and running towards things that scare you  Pulling yourself out of the victim trap (even if you are a victim)  And So Much More!

Jamie Gruber disagreed with this line of thinking. Even with no multifamily experience, Jamie decided he wanted to be a multifamily investor. So what did he do? He started the Multifamily and More meetup to network with existing multifamily investors. This didn’t mean that Jamie had no experience in real estate, he had a small portfolio of single family homes that he started to landlord by accident. Even with no experience in the multifamily space he was interested in, he was able to secure a deal with a member of his network. Now with 21 chapters and 10,000+ members, Multifamily and More has become a big part of the multifamily investing community. It grew because, as Jamie describes, he added value, stayed consistent with meetings and postings, and built an online community that could network and interact (even during COVID). Jamie gives his tips on starting a lasting community, how to navigate meetups during COVID lockdowns, finding the best partners for multifamily deals, and the importance of cash reserves when buying a property.

Jamie Gruber disagreed with this line of thinking. Even with no multifamily experience, Jamie decided he wanted to be a multifamily investor. So what did he do? He started the Multifamily and More meetup to network with existing multifamily investors. This didn’t mean that Jamie had no experience in real estate, he had a small portfolio of single family homes that he started to landlord by accident. Even with no experience in the multifamily space he was interested in, he was able to secure a deal with a member of his network. Now with 21 chapters and 10,000+ members, Multifamily and More has become a big part of the multifamily investing community. It grew because, as Jamie describes, he added value, stayed consistent with meetings and postings, and built an online community that could network and interact (even during COVID). Jamie gives his tips on starting a lasting community, how to navigate meetups during COVID lockdowns, finding the best partners for multifamily deals, and the importance of cash reserves when buying a property.

Last time we talked about the nitty gritty of Scott’s investments, how he started to acquire houses, and building his empire. Now we’re touching more on the mindset of what makes Scott so successful, and how you can put yourself in his shoes. Many people may know Scott from his HGTV shows, but maybe you didn’t know he was once in a boy band. Seriously. He took dance classes, convinced his friends to join him, and sold out some shows, but the takeaway from this short-lived boy band was priceless. If you see someone else finding success with something, use their blazed trail to find success yourself. From his boy band, to being on student council, and even the passing away of a loved one, Scott learned valuable lessonsthat he took with him for the rest of his life, and now gets to share with the BiggerPockets audience. Scott goes on to share a story that made him pivot the direction of his life as a teenager, and lead him to become the real estate mogul he is today. Scott goes through his top pieces of advice for young people and proves how planting seeds for investments early leads to acres upon acres of residual fruits for decades to come. In This Episode We Cover:  How Scott manages his hectic life between companies, shows, and family   Why successful people aren’t afraid of failing   What young or inexperienced investors should do when they feel scared of taking a risk   Why Scott says you “can’t lose money in real estate”  The importance of talking to those who are older and have more experience than you  Scott’s top pieces of advice for young people just starting out their careers  How Scott runs his companies and what he’s doing to be a better leader   How you can be the MVP of your company    And So Much More!

If so, you’re in luck! Joining us on the podcast is HGTV host Scott McGillivray! Scott has been hosting some of the best real estate investing and construction shows for over a decade now, and if you like BiggerPockets, you’ve probably seen an episode of one of Scott’s shows! Scott’s investing career started long before his TV network deals. As a student in college, Scott accidentally stumbled upon his landlord’s mortgage statement of account. He realized that him and his roommates were paying a few hundred dollars over what their landlord was paying monthly for a mortgage. That was the lightbulb moment for Scott. It was time to get into real estate investing. While in college with no job, very little money, and no experience, Scott bought a house and moved out of his rented room. Now he wanted more. Over the next few years Scott started amassing more and more rentals, taking as many financing options as he could get his hands on. By the time he was 25, he already had 25 units and a significant amount of profit coming in every year. This only pushed Scott to strive for bigger and better deals. Now Scott owns hundreds of rentals, and spends his time between Florida and Canada, finding more deals, and fixing up more rentals. Scott is a tried and true investor, one who has gone through different market swings, different fads, and many different tenants. While he’s only in his early 40s, he has amassed an extensive knowledge of the real estate space. It’s no surprise he’s one of Brandon’s real estate heroes! If you liked this episode be sure to tune in this weekend for part 2 of Scott's interview! In This Episode We Cover:  When is the best time to get started in real estate?  Why most people are scared to invest, and what pushes them to finally do it  Amassing a small real estate empire even while you’re young  How to take advantage of financing offers and how Scott closed on 8 houses in the same day  Why you need to give your investing career time to start rolling  What a “double offer” is, and how you can use it to beat others to a deal  Why you should take action even when the market is uncertain  The ScottMc Method  And SO much more!

For those who don’t know, Ed Mylett is a renowned speaker, entrepreneur, real estate investor, author, and podcaster. He has started businesses worth millions and continues to teach entrepreneurs through his personal brand. What many people don’t know is how much Ed loves real estate. That’s right, you heard it first on BiggerPockets! It’s not the speaking, writing, and podcasting, it’s owning cash flowing properties. As a matter of fact, he just closed on one recently with his son and did an astonishing $100 million in real estate deals in 2020. Ed emphasizes the importance of faith, generosity, and most importantly, setting your life at a high standard. These seem to be the key thought processes that many other successful entrepreneurs have, and again proves Ed’s point on their importance. It’s not easy being in real estate, especially when the deals get big (we’re talking $25M+ deals). Ed cautions young investors to not bite off more than they can chew, or as he puts it “don’t take a loss where you can’t fight again”. In a world full of mega-leveraged investment opportunities, this might be the advice new investors need to feel confident going forward. This episode also dives into the importance of having a purpose, whether related to faith or not, and how you need to chase the life you want, set your standards high, and do the most impactful things to accomplish them.

How do you prioritize things in your life when everything seems so important? The key is essentialism. Joining the podcast today is Greg McKeown, Author of Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less. Greg relates to the struggle of many entrepreneurs and investors: too many options, not enough time. Instead of telling you to wake up at 5 AM, take a cold shower and work until 10PM, he presents a far more effective (and simple) approach. What Greg suggests: pick the things you care most about, do them, and don’t worry about the rest. But how do you pick when everything seems essential? The answer: almost everything else besides your core cares/needs aren’t essential. If you begin to treat the non-essential as essential, you stretch yourself too thin, not allowing you the time to accomplish what truly is...essential. In the modern age, many of us feel like we don’t have time to accomplish everything we want. When we get laser-focused and put the principles of essentialism in our daily lives, we can accomplish more than ever. In This Episode We Cover:  What is essentialism?  How to designate the non-essential from the essential tasks   Why having too many good options puts us in a dangerous position  How to find out which tasks deserve delegation or deletion   Developing the courage to say “no”   Finding an accountability partner so you’re locked in for success  Why Brandon wants to spend less time on Tiktok  And So Much More!

How do you prioritize things in your life when everything seems so important? The key is essentialism. Joining the podcast today is Greg McKeown, Author of Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less. Greg relates to the struggle of many entrepreneurs and investors: too many options, not enough time. Instead of telling you to wake up at 5 AM, take a cold shower and work until 10PM, he presents a far more effective (and simple) approach. What Greg suggests: pick the things you care most about, do them, and don’t worry about the rest. But how do you pick when everything seems essential? The answer: almost everything else besides your core cares/needs aren’t essential. If you begin to treat the non-essential as essential, you stretch yourself too thin, not allowing you the time to accomplish what truly is...essential. In the modern age, many of us feel like we don’t have time to accomplish everything we want. When we get laser-focused and put the principles of essentialism in our daily lives, we can accomplish more than ever. In This Episode We Cover:  What is essentialism?  How to designate the non-essential from the essential tasks   Why having too many good options puts us in a dangerous position  How to find out which tasks deserve delegation or deletion   Developing the courage to say “no”   Finding an accountability partner so you’re locked in for success  Why Brandon wants to spend less time on Tiktok  And So Much More!

Didn’t get a promotion: it’s your bosses fault for being greedy! Ran late to work: it’s all the other drivers faults, not yours! Investment property having problems: it’s the tenant doing all the damage! Ryan Michler, founder of the Order of Man, sees this sort of victim mentality as a massive block to our full potential. He makes the well-put point that all we can do is control our effort, we can’t control others. This realization didn’t come easy, though. Ryan realized this after a tough fight with his partner, leading him to reevaluate not only their relationship, but the way he shifted blame on others, in an unhealthy way. Now Ryan interviews the men that he looks up to on his own podcast, all while running his organization/brotherhood of those part of the “Order of Man”. It’s not easy to stay humble and calm all the time, especially in the state of our current world, but Ryan does as good of a job as any to remind us all that our future is in our hands, and all we can do is try our best, consistently. In This Episode We Cover:  Why we all need to practice humility, ownership, responsibility, and sovereignty    The importance of having a “servant’s mindset” even as a business owner  How to constantly add value to whatever you do in life  Why we should shift our focus to our efforts and not other’s efforts  Why having children makes you want to be better and push harder   The importance of owning and running a business, even at a young age  Dropping the “I” and using the “We” when leading a team   Why “the win” is simply “playing the game”  And So Much More!

He bought a house while in college, with only $8,000 down and not a lot in the bank. The house ended up getting de-authorized for tenants to live in so Rodney had to go back on his loan. Game over right? Time to give up? Not for Rodney! While finishing college, Rodney decided to take it a bit slower, getting his real estate agent license so he could build up the capital to buy rentals. He’s been an agent, a wholesaler, a general contractor, and a buy and hold investor. If it’s happening in real estate, Rodney probably knows about it! Unlike many new (and even experienced) real estate investors, Rodney took the time to nurture leads, have meaningful conversations with sellers and buyers, and found that by having some basic empathy for the other party, you’re more likely to close deals. This strategy seemed to have worked, in a decade since his first deal, Rodney now has around 20 cash flowing units, and he’s looking for more!  Using the 203k loan, Rodney has been able to get homes at a discount, finance the repairs, and get them rented and refinanced, kind of like a speciality BRRRR. This episode proves that if you care about real estate, care about your partners, and are willing to take risks, it will truly pay off. In This Episode We Cover:  How to get back up after a frustrating investment   How knowing about construction timelines and projects can help you get comfortable enough to do your first rehab  Why mixed use properties are often an overlooked real estate class  The importance of defining your role with your partner  How to talk to buyers so they’ll choose you over other offers  Why it’s so important to look out for the other real estate parties in a deal  And SO much more!

Brian holds a view that many BiggerPockets listeners subscribe to: you are more capable than you think. Through short term sprints, Brian has found that we can all accomplish long-term goals, regardless of the difficulty. This isn’t just a strategy that works for real estate, this works in any industry. Brian has consulted with every kind of business, and the results speak for themselves. Regardless of job type, business type, or industry type, the 12 week yearhelps you accomplish more by doubling down on what you need to do most. Brian also talks about the danger of long term goal setting, and even annual goal setting. It isn’t that long term goal setting doesn’t work, it’s that it presents us with a long time frame to accomplish something we could do far quicker. That’s how the 12 week year kicks our “unproductive mindset” to the curb, and gets us fired up to do great things sooner. Many investors find it hard to break out of their comfort zone, do the things that they find hard, or even just feel motivated. The crucial part of finding success wherever you need it? Take action, start today, track, plan, and re-plan when needed. You’ll soon find that you’re fired up about things that used to seem scary! In This Episode We Cover:  What the “12 Week Year” really is  How short term goal setting can help you accomplish your biggest goals  Why you need to shift focus to executable tasks    How to get tactical on your goals and what you can do to accomplish them  Leaning into hard things and shying away from comfort  The importance of “vision work” and knowing where you’re headed   Holding yourself accountable for what you want most in life  How repetition forms competence and competence forms confidence  And So Much More!

Either they don’t have the money, the deals, or the experience. Our guest today, Jon Wooten, had none of these three, but found a way to acquire 18 units (and become financially free) in only a few years. By asking questions and sticking out to the local real estate investors, Jon was able to acquire valuable experience, all while gaining equity in his rental properties. Jon has his own method for finding deals and acquiring wealth, called the “Sunflower Method”, which has helped him get to the point he is at. Now, financially free at 28, Jon has the ability to choose whether he wants to work, which projects to go after, and how he wants to spend his time. This isn’t a far away goal that only the rich and well connected can get to, it’s available for all real estate investors! You may be working a minimum wage job, stuck in a career you want out of, or have debt. Jon shows that all of these can’t stop you from acquiring wealth! How do you find houses? How do you find a mentor? What’s the best way to find a quality handyman? How can you make sure a house is being inspected properly. All these questions and more are answered in this episode! In This Episode We Cover:  How to find a mentor AND get your first rental  Why you should make it an effort to get to know your local real estate investors    Why self-managing is a great way to gain experience  How to get seller financing on a rental (and who to ask for it)  Why you should call “for rent” signs   What the “Sunflower Method” is and how it builds wealth  The best way to find a quality (and inexpensive) handyman    Fake cash flow vs Pure cash flow   How to properly inspect a house before you make an offer  And SO much more!

Jon has his own method for finding deals and acquiring wealth, called the “Sunflower Method”, which has helped him get to the point he is at. Now, financially free at 28, Jon has the ability to choose whether he wants to work, which projects to go after, and how he wants to spend his time. This isn’t a far away goal that only the rich and well connected can get to, it’s available for all real estate investors! You may be working a minimum wage job, stuck in a career you want out of, or have debt. Jon shows that all of these can’t stop you from acquiring wealth! How do you find houses? How do you find a mentor? What’s the best way to find a quality handyman? How can you make sure a house is being inspected properly. All these questions and more are answered in this episode! In This Episode We Cover:  How to find a mentor AND get your first rental  Why you should make it an effort to get to know your local real estate investors    Why self-managing is a great way to gain experience  How to get seller financing on a rental (and who to ask for it)  Why you should call “for rent” signs   What the “Sunflower Method” is and how it builds wealth  The best way to find a quality (and inexpensive) handyman    Fake cash flow vs Pure cash flow   How to properly inspect a house before you make an offer  And SO much more!

This week, we’re joined by his co-author, Benjamin Hardy. Benjamin has spent the last few years getting his PhD in organizational psychology, writing books such as Personality Isn’t Permanent and Willpower Doesn’t Work. These tie perfectly into his new book Who Not How, and will help you get to the business, personal, fitness, or other goals you’re trying to reach. Benjamin goes through why things like willpower and effort are often misunderstood, and how they can be used as tools to get you to your goals, but they aren’t the path. Benjamin walks us through why so many entrepreneurs get “decision fatigue” and why situations often rule over people, not the other way around. Benjamin presents a very unique view on shaping your future, one that isn’t often talked about in the self-help and business space. With many entrepreneurs feeling stressed, fatigued, or just confused, Benjamin’s advice offers not only a practical, but tangible way to accomplish what you want and do better in your business and personal life. We also double down on the importance of hiring people who will make your life easier, not just for your sake, but for theirs as well. Plus, Benjamin shares one of the most important hires you can make that will help you clear hundreds of hours off your calendar. This episode isn’t just about why you should hire an employee. It’s about how you designate your time, and ultimately your life. As Benjamin says “Your future self is more important than your present self”, and for good reason! In This Episode We Cover:  Why willpower doesn’t work in the way many people think it does  Why situations are often more powerful than people  How to remove “decision fatigue” and stop it from plaguing your life  How to find the right “who” for your organization and life  Defining your crystal clear criteria for your future self and the roles of others  How to be the right “who” for someone else’s “how”  Applying behaviors so your identity can follow  Focusing more on getting your “$10,000 tasks” done  And So Much More!

After being let go from a job, dealing with a family emergency, and homeschooling her son, Amanda knew that she had to find a way to provide for her family, but also allow her to discover her hidden edge. After finding BiggerPockets and joining a local REIA (real estate investors association), she decided to take the jump and buy her first rental. Now, in 2020, she has 7 rental properties and a flourishing flipping business, working with a partner that matches her energy. Amanda found her localized niche by targeting owners of “sinkhole homes” and offering them deals that not only made sense for the buyer, but were a steal for her. She then used creative financing (really creative) to get these homes under contract. Amanda is the definition of someone who has grit, and is willing to work hard to earn their piece. She talks through Section 2 deals, 1031 exchanges, refinancing, and even how to “COVID-Proof” your tenants, so when the next global emergency happens, you’ll be ready. In This Episode We Cover:  How to fight your analysis paralysis and get deals done  What probate deals are and how to find leads  Why owner financing can be a win-win for buyers and sellers  How Amanda found a niche in “sinkhole homes”  Why it’s important to find a niche that others would run from  How to “COVID-Proof” your rental properties  Getting ahead as a woman in a male-dominated industry (flipping)  Empathizing with the seller so you’ll win negotiations (even with less money)  And SO much more!

What you may not know is Joshua’s journey in founding, building, scaling, and finally leaving BiggerPockets. It was a hard decision for Joshua to leave, but thanks to his amazing team, he was able to (even during a time of tribulation in his personal life). You’ll hear how Joshua was cranking out 100 hour weeks, working 7 straight days, for the first 6 years of BiggerPocket’s existence. He later transitioned to building a team, starting with the BiggerPocket Podcast’s very own host, Brandon Turner. This later snowballed into more hirings, with the BiggerPockets growing faster and faster, and being able to scale larger and larger. Just at the time when things were starting to go from big to bigger, Joshua had to take time off to take care of his daughter’s medical emergency. This caused a shift in Joshua’s reality, so he dropped everything. This keynote speech goes deep into what really matters most. It’s not money, it’s not success, but it’s something that matters even more: fulfillment and family. Check out the video on our Youtube channel, and be sure to give Joshua a follow on Twitter at @jrdorkin. In This Episode We Cover:  The history of BiggerPockets and how it grew to what it is today  Why “knowing everything” usually means knowing nothing  The importance of hiring smart, capable people  How to listen to your body and mind, to find out what you need most  Why you shouldn’t work 6 years straight with no time off  Why you need to do the “Big Scary Thing”  How life forces you to account for what matters most  Why Joshua Dorkin has 3 dads   And So Much More!

While he was a hospital administrator in the Democratic Republic of Congo, he was calling real estate agents in Chattanooga, Tennessee trying to scoop up multifamily deals. David started out by partnering up with his father, buying a quadplex that helped him get his initial training in property management. He later scaled up his and his father’s investment portfolio to 24 units, and then, within 3 years, scaled up his own investments to 150+ units! This meant that David had to quit his job and go full-time into real estate investing. He did it, and he isn’t looking back! Now David is a deal-finding machine, buying directly from listing agents and becoming one of the go-to multifamily investors in Chattanooga. Whether you own one single family home, a dozen duplexes, or hundreds of apartment complexes, you’ll take something away from David’s in depth discussion on property management, landlording, and tenant screening. In This Episode We Cover:  Finding your “unfair advantage” and how it can help your investing career  Approaching different investors with different points of view   The importance of networking for off-market deals  Why you shouldn’t be scared to be “the owner”, and actually use it to market yourself to others  How to find, screen, and keep tenants in place  How you can quickly increase a property’s value (simply by being a great property manager)  Finding the “sweet spot” in multi-family deals  Setting up systems for automated property management (so you can scale!)

Nir Eyal, author of Indistractable, felt the same way when he missed an important moment with his daughter because he was locked in on his phone.  This spurred Nir’s curiosity on why people get distracted, what they’re getting distracted by, and how people can turn their distractions into the opposite: traction.   As a business owner, angel investor, Stanford lecturer, and father, Nir understands what it feels like to live a hectic life, but he also understands that most of the time, we ourselves are the ones making it hectic.  So what prompts us to take action? What prompts us to take inaction? How can we make ourselves do the things we need to do, with better results, and still have time for our children, relationships, hobbies, and even down time?  It’s all possible, and the key to a distraction-free life is even easier than you would think.   In This Episode We Cover  Why most people know their distractions, but not how to eliminate them   Why we need to “get out of our own way” to accomplish our goals  How to find your “traction” and use it to get ahead  The 4 steps to eliminate distraction   Understanding your values and using them to schedule your time   How to “time box” your calendar and get your tasks done  Leaving the victim mentality behind and empowering yourself to do what’s important  The 3 “life domains” that we revolve around   Why you need to prioritize consistency over intensity   And So Much More!

Or how you can leverage and measure your risk to make billionaire financial decisions? On this episode, Stig Brodersen – investor, teacher, and host of the popular We Study Billionaires podcast – brings you his distilled wisdom on success, mindset, the stock market, and the 3 universal traits shared by ultra-elite investors (and no, they don’t include flying first class or eating copious amounts of caviar). Early on in his story, Stig found himself dissatisfied with his job and needing a change. So, he did what any rational person would do, and began studying billionaires starting from the top of the Forbes 400 list. He didn’t get far before he “found his fire,” discovering passion and community in studying the stock market and the most heralded investor of all time: Warren Buffett. He has since interviewed hundreds of guests on his podcast, and unearthed countless pearls of wisdom that he shares with you in this episode. You might be thinking: “They’re interviewing a stock market investor on a real estate podcast?” Yes, and any real estate investor could learn a thing or two! As a practiced student of the financial markets, Stig calls out all-too-common mistakes made by new investors, and shares a blueprint for you to use to determine if and how to get started in the markets, regardless of experience. In This Episode We Cover:  The 3 timeless traits of billionaires  Why real estate investors should “cross-train” in the stock market  Assessing best- and worst-case scenarios   Why you need to "resonate" with your chosen asset class   Why real estate is an asymmetric bet with high reward for relatively small risk  How to get into investing in the stock market with little-to-no experience   Common mistakes of new stock market investors  How a BiggerPockets member saved Stig's life on an overseas trip (really!)

Whether you plan on getting into bigger deals in the future or not (Evan wants 100,000 units!), this episode will inspire you to start thinking like a big-time investor, strategist, and leader. In This Episode We Cover:  Listening to "what fires you up" when getting started  Evan's apprenticeship for a student housing developer  What a public-private partnership is  Using tax credits to make a profit building affordable housing  How he creatively finances big multifamily deals  How he manages risk   Why “it’s more valuable to control real estate than to own real estate”  Why development is such a big opportunity in markets where "it's too expensive to invest where I live!"

Changing careers. Wondering how family life fits in with a hard-driving work ethic.

A lifelong journaler, McConaughey is in a reflective mood after writing his first book, Greenlights... which is filled with unforgettable stories about growing up the son of Texas an oil pipe "peddler," stumbling into acting after a night drinking with the producer of Dazed and Confused, getting arrested for playing the bongo drums in the nude, and his mid-career shift toward intense, challenging projectslike Dallas Buyers Club.

Emma Powell faced that reality head-on. She knew she needed "full-time income" while continuing to spend time with her family... and she knew real estate investing would be the vehicle to get her there. Today Emma shares her journey from part-time photographer to multifamily dealmaker – how she got in the game by joining a REIA and immediately loaning money to an experienced investor (we discuss the right and wrong way to do this); her #1 piece of advice when meeting with a potential mentor; and her foray into the world of lease option ("rent to own") deals. Plus – Emma shares her perspective on how to choose a niche that suits your strengths (wholesaling wasn't for her; syndication and bigger commercial deals were a better fit). This is an inspiring story of someone who experienced a financial wake-up call, and went from total rookie to syndicator in just a few years... all while homeschooling 6 kids.

Listen up! Former Oakland A's baseball player (and show 292 guest) Ryan Pineda steps back up to the plate today... and he delivers a detailed breakdown of how he's using TikTok, Youtube, billboards, and TV commercials to generate an avalanche of leads in the Las Vegas, NV market. Ryan's team flips and wholesales 100 houses a year... but because he's set them up according to the EOS/Traction system, he spends just 3-4 hours per week running things! Sound good?

No? OK, well we'll see you next week... But really: this topic gets to the heart of why so many real estate investors quit, fail, or never even get started at all. Today's guest, Lewis Howes, has been studying these concepts for the past 13 years as host of the hit podcast School of Greatness. It all started as an effort to climb out of a major low point in Lewis' life, when he was broke and sleeping on his sister's couch... having crashed out of a brief arena football career. In this episode, you'll learn how Lewis learned to hack his self-limiting beliefs by systematically putting himself in situations (Toastmasters, salsa dancing, public speaking) that utterly terrified him. And he shares some practical exercises you can do to achieve greater confidence and self-mastery. Plus -- as a LinkedIn expert with a far-reaching network of connections, Lewis also opens up about how to effectively network on social media and elsewhere. Don't miss this weekend episode of the BiggerPockets Real Estate Podcast, and give Lewis a shout on social media you take him up on his challenge to write a mission statement for your life!

But what if you are the mail carrier? Today’s guest, George Gipson, worked for the USPS when he started investing, which seems like the perfect opportunity for finding deals. But as with any start in real estate investing, it isn’t always as easy as it seems. In today’s episode, we talk about taking action and committing to yourself - to ensure that those key opportunities actually work in your favor. We also talk about how important it is to learn your personal finances before diving into investing, plus how George used house hacking and short-term renting to reach financial freedom at an early stage of his investing. He’s even quit his job at USPS now so he can focus full-time on real estate. This is a real story about getting it done and seeing your own potential.

Today we have the man Brandon credits with helping him "go big" in business and life: his performance coach, Jason Drees. In fact, Jason works with a bunch of real estate investors... and today he shares tools for getting your mindset right and getting out of your own way as you grow your portfolio! You'll love hearing Jason explain what a coach does, how he worked with Brandon to turn a weakness (fear of fundraising/rejection) into a strength ($10M+ raised in 2020), and the reason why some of his clients are thriving despite COVID-19. Plus: about halfway through, there's an absolute gem when the guys discuss the planning models they use to attack challenges. Jason suggests a small but powerful mindset shift, and we're not exaggerating when we say this one tip may cause you to rethink your whole plan... and unleash new potential you didn't know you had! This is a real, vulnerable episode where both Brandon and David both discuss holding onto identities and beliefs that no longer served them. So what did you think? Let us know in the comments at biggerpockets.com/show403, or in a review on Apple Podcasts. In This Episode We Cover:  Common ways real estate investors self-sabotage   How Brandon got around his discomfort with raising private money   How our mindset influences our emotions   The BIG difference between the "Decide, Plan, Commit" model and the "Decide, Commit, Plan" model  Avoiding goals that are too specific  Thinking like a millionaire  How to feel empowered in the midst of COVID-19   And SO much more!

You'll love hearing Jason explain what a coach does, how he worked with Brandon to turn a weakness (fear of fundraising/rejection) into a strength ($10M+ raised in 2020), and the reason why some of his clients are thriving despite COVID-19. Plus: about halfway through, there's an absolute gem when the guys discuss the planning models they use to attack challenges. Jason suggests a small but powerful mindset shift, and we're not exaggerating when we say this one tip may cause you to rethink your whole plan... and unleash new potential you didn't know you had! This is a real, vulnerable episode where both Brandon and David both discuss holding onto identities and beliefs that no longer served them. So what did you think? Let us know in the comments at biggerpockets.com/show403, or in a review on Apple Podcasts. In This Episode We Cover:  Common ways real estate investors self-sabotage   How Brandon got around his discomfort with raising private money   How our mindset influences our emotions   The BIG difference between the "Decide, Plan, Commit" model and the "Decide, Commit, Plan" model  Avoiding goals that are too specific  Thinking like a millionaire  How to feel empowered in the midst of COVID-19   And SO much more!

So. Many. Options. It's easy to suffer from Fear of Missing Out, and it's even easier to get overwhelmed by the vast array of options out there. That's where today's show comes in: press play, and Brandon and David will guide you through an 8-step process to closing on that first (or next) rental property. Along the way, they share the tools (BP Insights) and team members ("Core Four" and more!) they use to guide decisions about where and how to deploy their capital. Your action steps start with clarifying your goals, then we move to comparing markets and sizing up different neighborhoods using school district ratings and crime data. Next, we tackling finding a deal – whether you're using an agent, a wholesaler, turnkey provider, or going off-market yourself... and how to avoid getting into trouble by "trusting your gut and hoping" when you're in an unfamiliar territory. If you invest out of state, should you fly out? What about systems and standard operating procedures once you've got a tenant in the property? We answer all those questions, and more.

In this premiere episode, you'll learn about the easy, free practice that might just be the highest ROI use of your time... and there is no one more qualified to teach this than Jordan Harbinger. Jordan brushes aside common myths about transactional "networking" using business cards or annoying LinkedIn messages. Instead, he shares the proven system he's used to build a world-class network. In fact, Jordan's strategies are so effective, the CIA and MI6 intelligence agencies hired him to teach them to their agents! So, how does this apply to real estate investing? Well.. what would it be like to have a solid stable of connections to mentors, private lenders, and people who actively look for opportunities for you? We're talking about people who you know would pick up your call. This show breaks down exactly how you can build those kind of relationship without changing your personality – even if you think you don't have a ton to offer the other person. Here's our challenge to you: put just one of these strategies into practice in your business this week, and see what happens. Hit us up on Instagram (@beardybrandon and @davidgreene24) to show us you did it! And remember, without committing to a system and following up, you won't get results. Let us know what you think of this new iteration of the BiggerPockets Real Estate Podcast. And if you're interested in more conversations like this, check out Jordan's podcast, the Jordan Harbinger Show, wherever you listen to us. In This Episode We Cover:  Why intentional networking is so crucial for real estate investors  How to take full advantage of your time at real estate meetups   His "Connect 4" system for reengaging with 4 people ("weak and dormant ties") each week  How to generate social capital   How to avoid strictly transactional relationships  The right way to introduce two people to each other over email   Developing confidence and overcoming shyness to succeed in the business world  And SO much more!

He was doing a lot of volume, but here's the catch: he was stressed out and unhappy. Plus... with zero rentals to his name, he had to keep spinning the hamster wheel – "feeding the machine" – to make any money. Today's show is about a big mindset shift, and the systems and teams Tarl put in place to create a business that truly serves him, rather than the way around... and allows he and his wife to travel 200 days a year while working on his business rather than in it. We cover a lot of topics here, from high-level success principles to the specific real estate investing actions you can take – today – to adopt a more intentional and focused approach to building longterm wealth. Lastly – Tarl's an exceptional networker, and the guys discuss the importance of meeting up with other rockstar investors even if the pandemic is preventing you from doing it in person. So... how do you do that? Well, Tarl's hosting a virtual conference September 18-19, and he's offering a 50% discount to BiggerPockets Pro members (check your email). This isn't a series of webinars, either... You'll be able to actually meet up with other attendees through online breakout groups, so it solves for the biggest challenge most investors are facing right now.

That's what you'll learn today, from two investors who have completed over 1,000 deals each: David Osborn and Aaron Amuchastegui. They begin the show by sharing their thoughts on today's economy (hint: they've kept plenty of cash cash on hand), then walk us through their 5-step process for successfully bidding on foreclosed properties at auction. From building a list of properties, to lining up funding, to checking title and actually making your bid, you'll learn how David and Aaron (+ thousands of other investors) built serious wealth buying up distressed properties after the last big crash. This skill set is another tool to add to your tool belt, and whether there's another wave of foreclosures coming or not, you can use it to build serious wealth. For more, pick up a copy of David and Aaron's new book, Bidding to Buy: A Step-by-Step Guide to Investing in Real Estate Foreclosures. And check out the show notes at biggerpockets.com/show396 for a transcript and other resources. In This Episode We Cover:  The impact of COVID-19 on various assets  Why David Osborn is keeping a heavy cash position    How the foreclosure process works (notice, etc.)  What a foreclosure auction (sometimes called a "trustee sale") is  The 5 Steps to buying at auction  Why it's so important to drive by every property you plan to buy  Aaron's first auction experience as a newbie  How to deal with a lien on a property   And SO much more!

Plus, the guys discuss the pros and cons of paying down mortgages, the psychological advantage of owning your primary residence free-and-clear, and Thach's favorite (free) lead generation strategy.

Today's guests Elliot and Chrissy Smith did just that when they left stable careers to flip, wholesale, and buy rental properties together in Washington state. Running the business together wasn't easy on their marriage. In fact, they almost got divorced. Fast forward to today... they're happy, doing 25 deals/year, and building long-term wealth by steadily buying rental properties. So, what adjustments did they make? In this episode Elliot and Chrissy share what they've learned about defining roles, managing cashflow, and finding work-life balance as young parents who happen to be business partners. It's a rare inside look at the ups and downs – and risks and rewards – of running a true family business. As die-hard fans right remember from his appearance on Show #255, Elliot is a skilled negotiator... and today he shares a surprisingly simple negotiating tip for those nerve-wracking kitchen table conversations with homeowners. Look: you gotta love a couple who hires a babysitter just so they can drive around looking for distressed properties (a move which led to today's Deal Deep Dive). So check out this episode, and share it with your spouse, friend, or family member who you think might enjoy it! In This Episode We Cover:  How Elliot and Chrissy divided their business into "lanes"    Their first taste of success with direct mail     Leaving full-time jobs to pursue their dreams in real estate   Dangers to be aware of when teaming up with your spouse  Showing a seller the math behind your offer  Plowing the cash from their flips into buy-and-hold rentals   Using the same exact same materials on every flip  Incentivizing a contractor by offering a profit share   Why they've slowed down their marketing in recent months  Elliot's cold call center for real estate investors  And SO much more!

And it's quite the journey, from cabinet maker and campus maintenance man to cigar-puffing 64-year-old social media influencer! In this episode you'll hear tales of up markets, down markets, losing it all, getting it all back... and a tornado that wiped out 20 of Rick's 100+ rental houses. He also takes us through his rules for tenant screening, explains why he favors 15-year mortgages, and paints a picture of what it's like to self-manage such a large portfolio of single family homes (with a team, of course).

That's what Todd Baldwin's achieved in a few short years, riding the red-hot Seattle housing market by repeat house hacking, renting by the bedroom, and living way below his means. Sure, Todd's benefited from appreciation, but he's also generating monster cash-on-cash returns across his 6 rental properties. And today, you'll learn just how he's doing it: how he finds pocket listings, why he favors new construction, why he pays for a $2,000/month service most landlords would never dream of providing, how he limits roommate drama, and much more. Wondering if this is legal? We discuss that in detail. Oh, and get this—Todd's all-time vacancy rate? Zero percent. So if you're in a high-priced coastal market, you need to listen to this show. And if you don't, we can pretty much guarantee you'll still enjoy it and pick up a few landlording nuggets along the way. Know someone who might put Todd's strategy to use? Share this episode with him or her today! And make sure you're subscribed to the show so you won't miss us next week. In This Episode We Cover:  How Todd makes $12K+ in pure cash flow by renting by the bedroom  Why he buys new construction rather than fixer-uppers  Why he pays for all utilities   The legalities of renting by the room  The dangers of buying a property with a homeowner's association (HOA)  Using a Tinder-like app to find roommates and tenants  Why he hires maids to clean each of his 6 properties weekly  His system for preventing conflicts among roommates   How complementary skillsets make for great business (and romantic) relationships  And SO much more!

We cover a crucial tax tip for anyone hiring a contractor, ever. Leka shares an unexpected silver lining brought on by the pandemic.

That's what today's guest has managed to do! In this episode, Michigan-based investor Mike Simmons shares exactly how he went from moderate success to $1 million in annual profit. You'll learn why Mike switched gears from flipping to wholesaling real estate, what he's learned from spending hundreds of thousands of dollars on various marketing channels, and the four-point checklist you must use when considering any kind of partnership. Ultimately, expert marketing tactics are fine and well. But to scale, you've got to master leadership and hiring—topics Mike covers in great detail here and in his new book, Level Jumping. So pick up a copy (see link below), and share this episode with a friend, family member, or fellow investor who you think would enjoy it! In This Episode We Cover:  Mike's remedy to cure a bad case of "analysis paralysis"  Why he switched gears from flipping to wholesaling  Why wholesaling is NOT always a great thing for newbies   The marketing channels Mike uses to do 100 deals per year   Ultra-specific direct mail tips (from a guy who's sent hundreds of thousands of dollars of direct mail!)   What most do wrong with direct mail marketing  How he made a $50K assignment fee and the key lesson he learned  Hiring and managing transaction coordinators   Hiring his first salesperson on a "straight commission" pay structure  Using personality assessments like DISC and Kolbe when hiring  Why intelligence is not the most important predictor of success in real estate investing  And SO much more!

Today, he tells us how he's hanging onto it by making two big shifts in his business. When the pandemic hit, lenders got nervous... and that put a couple of Marcus' deals in danger.

Today, Marcus Maloney shares his wild ride in Part 1 of two episodes this week. This one was recorded before the coronavirus pandemic, so we don't discuss that topic. Tomorrow, we'll dive into how Marcus pivoted to keep doing deals in these trying times. In this episode, you'll learn how Marcus used just $200 to launch his career, how he acquired nine rental properties, and how he's completed dozens of local (Phoenix) and long-distance (Chicago) real estate transactions.

Plus—the guys have a great conversation about performance coaching and why the thing that's holding you back probably isn't something you're going to fix at a real estate boot camp.

Today, Marcus Maloney shares his wild ride in Part 1 of two episodes this week. This one was recorded before the coronavirus pandemic, so we don't discuss that topic. Tomorrow, we'll dive into how Marcus pivoted to keep doing deals in these trying times. In this episode, you'll learn how Marcus used just $200 to launch his career, how he acquired nine rental properties, and how he's completed dozens of local (Phoenix) and long-distance (Chicago) real estate transactions.

You heard that right. Greg Gaudet actually considers himself "risk-averse" and still holds a full-time job, but he's able to make nice chunks of change by hustling to find deals and managing rehabs for Brandon's team on Maui. Today, Greg walks us through his journey from "rock bottom," including bouts with addiction and homelessness, to living the life of his dreams, buying a Porsche cash, and owning a handful of properties free and clear.  You'll learn the right way to approach investing in condos, how to bring value to a potential partner or mentor, how Greg manages risk by keeping his living expenses low, and the mindset shifts that allowed him to 1) get clean and 2) "get out of his own way" in the real estate business. This is truly one of the most powerful stories we've told on the BiggerPockets Real Estate Podcast, and it's guaranteed to get your wheels spinning! In This Episode We Cover:  How tragedy shaped much of Greg's early years   Bad advice he received when jumping into investing  What to look for (and avoid) when investing in condos   How Greg bought a condo for less than 50¢ on the dollar  How he and Brandon structure their flip deals   How anyone can flip without risk—if they're willing to work  Greg's "why" (and his paid-for Porsche)  How to approach a mentor without making it awkward  And SO much more!

We noticed Spencer's thread detailing his struggles in the BiggerPockets forums and invited him on the show; he bravely accepted. In this episode, you'll learn the pitfalls to watch out for when taking on heavy renovations (anywhere, but especially long-distance), how to ensure quality work is getting done, and the dangers of letting projects drag on when you're locked into expensive short-term financing. Plus, it's not a total downer... because Spencer's seeing a bunch of success with his new Youtube venture, and plans to continue investing in (less aggressively leveraged) real estate projects. Brandon and David add their own perspectives having made some similar errors in their careers, and tomorrow in Part 2 they'll break down the 10 Deadliest Mistakes Investors Make. New investors: heed the advice in these two shows! And as always: run your numbers conservatively, know your own risk tolerance, and run deals by trusted advisors before jumping in. In This Episode We Cover:   What went wrong with Spencer's rehabs  How to ensure contractors are doing quality work   Incentivizing team members and keeping them accountable   How much money he paid in interest and fees to his hard money lenders  Functional obsolescence and complications with older homes   Why you can't always trust an appraisal  "Home buyer turnoffs" and why it's easy to miss them  Why Spencer sold and took a loss rather than choosing another exit strategy  Why he's not giving up on real estate  How you can "go broke buying good deals"   And SO much more!

Today, Josiah Smelser returns to the show and tells all. In Part 1 yesterday, we learned how Josiah built a $4M portfolio by buying, renovating, renting, refinancing, and repeating using both hard money and private money. Coronavirus hit him hard. And if he didn't have cash reserves, credit options, and the right mindset, it might have totally wiped him out. When the virus hit, Josiah had 10 properties he needed to refinance. It was a perfect storm: His private money lender immediately pulled funds, his refinance bank changed their terms, and property values dropped—all at once—meaning he would need to bring way more cash to the table. What happened next? Listen to this episode to learn about how Josiah made it through the nightmare and came out on the other side... with more equity and reduced interest payments. Real estate investing isn't all sunshine and rainbows. But if you keep your mind right, plan your exit strategies, and maintain cash and credit lines, you too can survive the curveballs thrown your way. In This Episode We Cover:  What happens when private lenders want their money back  Why Josiah's bank changed the loan-to-value ratio on him  Tapping a cash-out refinance in an emergency  Trying to sell a property you had planned to BRRRR   Taking out loans in your spouse's name to get around loan limitations  Key to pulling off a BRRRR in a down market   How Josiah saved $750K in interest over 30 years by getting a lower interest rate  How an attorney can help you arrange a great partnership  Why Josiah looks at this stressful time as a highlight of his real estate investing career  And SO much more!

This first conversation was recorded pre-coronavirus lockdown, but it's packed with tips you can put into action today. You'll learn how Josiah solved the #1 bottleneck in his business (capital!), allowing him to BRRRR at scale and rack up rental properties with very little money out of pocket. Even more impressive: he's doing it long-distance (The properties are in Dallas, TX and Josiah lives in Huntsville, AL.) And if that weren't enough, the guys go in-depth on appraisals – and the techniques you can use to help appraisers see your side of the story. Josiah's a longtime licensed appraiser, so he speaks from experience... and he shares his playbook for giving yourself the best chance to pull all your money out of your deal. If you like what Josiah has to say, then be sure to check it Part 2 tomorrow. We bring him back on, post-COVID-19, to discuss the serious challenges he's faced: lenders pulling out, property values dropping, and even a domestic violence issue at one of his rentals. The good news: he made it through. Tune in tomorrow to hear how! In This Episode We Cover:  Why Josiah sold his properties pre-2008 crash (and why he still regrets it!)  Combining hard money and private money to BRRRR with no money out of pocket  How Josiah uses "boots on the ground" partners to invest at a distance  Why he analyzes 8-10 deals per day  Buying houses sight unseen  Why BRRRR investors must keep cash reserves  How to talk to appraisers (like getting out of a speeding ticket!)  Why a property's list price is irrelevant  Deals... on the MLS, in 2020?!  The square footage trick that's made him thousands of dollars  Losing out to a lower offer on a big multifamily deal  And SO much more!

Yes... IF you heed the advice given out in today's episode. Our guest Tucker Merrihew is more than qualified to tackle this subject, having launched his real estate business in Portland, Oregon, in 2008—during one of the worst housing markets of all time. In a rare "Double Deep Dive" segment, Tucker walks us through a couple TTM Development projects from 2009 and reveals exactly what he did right and wrong at the time. As for the coming months... you'll learn which types of properties to avoid, which price ranges to target, and why renovating old homes can be risky business at this stage of the market cycle. Plus, Tucker explains why he underwrites every deal at 3 different prices to make sure it passes his "Oh $#!# Test" if the market goes south.

Brian Burke is back today, and he sits down with Brandon and David to offer his interpretation of current events and to guide our audience through how to invest passively without violating Warren Buffett's No. 1 rule: "Never Lose Money!" Brian explains how his firm Praxis Capital is navigating COVID-19 and shares a few tips everyday investors can use to fortify their portfolios. We also discuss leverage, how lending practices are changing, and techniques you can use today to safeguard your investments against vacancy and drops in valuation. In the second half of the show, Brian speaks to those interested in becoming "hands-off" investors—whether you want to focus on making money in your day job or just don't want to deal with being a landlord. After all, BiggerPockets has 10-plus books on how to actively get deals done... but none (until now) on how to evaluate passive investment opportunities. We go over how to meet syndicators, what red flags to look for, how to diversify your investments... and the absolute No. 1 quality to look for in a passive investment (hint: it's NOT the deal itself). This episode is packed with deep insights into the current market shift, but it's also a timeless lesson in evaluating syndication opportunities.

How? Well, he bailed on direct mail marketing and doubled down on radio ads. And when others froze up as the coronavirus spread, his team put in new systems and closed a $23,500 wholesale deal... without even stepping foot inside the house. Chris Arnold zigs when others zag, and today you'll learn how he sets up his business so he can consistently work ON it, not in it... while enjoying a great lifestyle in Tulum, Mexico. Chris shares timely tips for how to orchestrate deals while maintaining safe social distancing (he even holds "Zoom open houses" with multiple cash buyers at once); breaks down which team member handles each aspect of a transaction; and delivers a fantastic tip for new real estate investors struggling to stay focused.

How? Well, he bailed on direct mail marketing and doubled down on radio ads. And when others froze up as the coronavirus spread, his team put in new systems and closed a $23,500 wholesale deal... without even stepping foot inside the house. Chris Arnold zigs when others zag, and today you'll learn how he sets up his business so he can consistently work ON it, not in it... while enjoying a great lifestyle in Tulum, Mexico. Chris shares timely tips for how to orchestrate deals while maintaining safe social distancing (he even holds "Zoom open houses" with multiple cash buyers at once); breaks down which team member handles each aspect of a transaction; and delivers a fantastic tip for new real estate investors struggling to stay focused.

From quarantines to eviction moratoriums to a plummeting stock market, COVID-19 has upended seemingly everything -- and today we talk through what it all means for real estate investors. J Scott, author of Recession-Proof Real Estate Investing, and Scott Trench, author of Set for Life and CEO of BiggerPockets, join Brandon and David for a roundtable discussion packed with perspective and insight. We begin with a high-level analysis of today's economy, and discuss how you can fortify your portfolio in the face of a likely recession (there's still time!). Then, the guys take on your most pressing questions -- starting with, "what happens if my tenant doesn't pay rent?" *NOTE: If you want to skip directly to audience Q&amp;A, that section starts at 1 hour, 5 minutes.* Whether you're a brand new investor nervous about getting started... or a veteran waiting for the right opportunity to deploy capital, this episode will give you a chance to take a deep breath and assess the playing field. We hope you enjoy this special episode, recorded March 18... Stay safe, take care of yourselves, and stay tuned for more Coronavirus content across all BiggerPockets platforms in the days and weeks ahead. In This Episode We Cover:  BiggerPockets members' top questions right now  How to control your emotions when people around you are panicking  Which strategies do and don't work well during downturns  How to approach tenants who have lost income and don't pay rent  The importance of "buying right" and keeping cash reserves  6 ways real estate investors should prep for a recession  How power dynamics in the marketplace will change  Whether you should still be out there looking for deals  How to productively use your time while confined indoors  Adjustable Rate Mortgages today  COVID-19's effect on the overall economy  The effects of Quantitative Easing and 0% interest rates  And SO much more!

She vowed she'd one day appear on the BiggerPockets Podcast. That day has come. And we're all better off for it! In this action-packed episode, Lee traces her journey from full-time field biologist to newbie who jumped straight into long-distance multifamily (wait 'til you hear about her first deal!) to developing apartment buildings in the high-end Los Angeles market. You'll learn how she formed relationships with local, "boots-on-the-ground" partners on her BRRRR deals in Kansas City, why she came to prefer value-add multifamily deals over BRRRR, and how she's able to find higher and better uses for properties in Southern California. From looking at our podcast stats, we know a LOT of you are in hot markets like L.A., New York, San Francisco, and Washington, D.C. If you've ever thought to yourself, "My market's so expensive... How can I invest in real estate?"—look no further. This episode will get you motivated, and it may just ignite your real estate investing career!

In This Episode We Cover:  Why she abandoned the idea of building a tiny house empire  How her career as an environmental consultant prepared her for real estate investing  Why innovation can be overrated  How she screwed up her first deal and still made 28% cash-on-cash  Why choosing a “submarkets” is more important than the general market you choose  Why she shifted from BRRRR to value-add multifamily investing  How she unlocks value in rundown apartment buildings   Finding “boots-on-the-ground” partners for out-of-state deals  How she learned the development game by apprenticing under an experienced investor  How real estate development creates money out of thin air  Tearing down single-family homes and building 4-unit apartment buildings   How she moves projects more quickly by using “prefabricated construction”  Why “value-add” drives the biggest returns on investment  And SO much more!
