Met Cody as a 52 year old real estate newbie and it changed everything for me. I’ve gone from being halfway through my third flip to partnering with Cody and currently owning or partnering on 40 doors. I’ve never met anybody so focused and driven to accomplishing their goals.
Man, that’s so cool. I was in the recent bigger pockets Boot Camp and my instructor Dion spoke very highly of Cody. I’m out here in the Tri-Cities and pretty sure he just bought something over here. Great episode, glad I tuned in.

I definitely salute him on his success but he definitely got blessed. 99% of the time when someone needs funding there is a minimum credit score, track record, or collateral needed. Unless you have a rich friend or something to just front it. That is very rare, especially for a small apartment complex. You are a blessed man.
2-4 apartments- you can get an FHA loan with only 3% down. You just live in one and rent out the other(s). The best part is you can claim 75% of the expected rental income for the property as your income to help qualify for a larger loan. If you have a four unit complex that rents $1,000 per unit. Live in one. The other three gross $3,000. You can claim 75% on FHA loan which is $2,250 a month towards qualifying towards your loan. You can live rent/mortgage free and maybe put a little extra coin in your pocket all while building wealth. Sure you need some up front capital but it's not as hard as people think.

@@naureenkhashwji8039 I need one, all these online guru's waste your time watching hours of video to suck you dry with theirs crazy high fees, why not just take a cut of your deals?? Makes no sense.
So many people have such a short attention span because of tiktok and other similar platforms. I'm so glad I took the time to watch this whole video! It was so valuable and I love the story and the message that you brought to light! Thank you for sharing!
This guy's cody has a lot of maturities as compared to his age, as I'm 20 now and my head is exploding after listening to this podcast that I have to foot down on the battlefield NOW! As a person with same age, he got millions of dollars of real estate under contract (not jealous, just a drive to push me)
For 2023, it’s hard to nail down specific predictions for the housing market is because it’s not yet clear how quickly or how much the Federal Reserve can bring down inflation and borrowing costs without tanking buyer demand for everything from homes to cars.
@Craig Daniels yes, transportation, e-commerce among other sectors are expected to experience growth, but who knows, the market has been a basket of surprises.
@@tatianastarcic True, we’re only just an information away from amassing wealth, I know a lot of folks that made fortunes from the Dotcom crash as well as the 08’ crash and I’ve been looking into similar opportunities in this present market, could this coach that guides yo help?
Rent never goes down. So in that perspective buyer demand is irrelevant. Buy to rent, not to own. It's an asset you can always sell. Stop having a short sighted picture.
Love, love love Henry as a cohost!!! His original episode is the only episode I have watched 4 times !!!! Love his laugh and he didn’t just sit there as a fly on the wall without valuable insight!! Henry brings it! Loved everything about Cody and wow he’s a great son and inspiration!!!
I am 35 years old I've been investing for the last 9 years I'd like to think I'm fairly savvy although I know there's still plenty I'm unaware of I'm 8 minutes and 20 seconds into this video with this 21-year-old kid and I just learned something already. Thank you!
Not every single one Yolanda, but there is a lot of truth in it. I've been in the business for 22 years and when they ask me that, I say it depends on YOU and I walk them through it. If they have job stability, it's a long term play, and it's comfortable financially, then perhaps yes. If not, I will advise that maybe they should wait or rent.
@@marianparker7502 As buyers, we should boycott and stay away from properties that owns by investors, flippers, Zillow, Redfin, opendoor, blackrock, and many of them inflated this housing market. We should all ignore the housing market in the next year and send a message to those bastards!
@@Robertgriffinne The inflated housing market was created by regulation. People have clamored for regulation to "protect their investment" for decades now. This is the effect. You have two choices. Demand deregulation, or live with it!
@@PhilipMurray251 I watched a video yesterday about this in California and how houses are so expensive there because of supply and demand and how regulations are what stopping the construction of new and more homes...
Thankyou so much for all this info !! This helps so much! I have been a contractor since I’ve been 18 have done basically everything interior wise I’m going to use what you did and build my empire. I am unable to buy a house currently I have a great job, but I am unable to get a loan because I’m 25 so thank you so much. This is definitely awesome!
Very impressive, I’m very surprised by the number of negative comments on this episode. If you don’t catch the free lessons from this episode then you’re listening to criticize. Congrats on your success and thanks for a great episode. There’s so many golden nuggets in here. Why can’t we be happy and celebrate other people’s success and find motivation in their success?
OMG, this is so inspiring man. Great job to the new host and co host, I just recently got into investing and I always found myself on bigger pockets podcasts. Listened in on in when David took the reigns and Brandon going on to bigger pastures. I think this is your first guest and let me just say this was an awesome start!! I am in ahh on your focus Cody, wished when I turned 19 focused on the bigger picture rather than focusing on how long it would take to get to a legal drinking age!! Better late than never I say, your story and approach is amazing especially because I am an extrovert and love building relationships but never to have thought to execute "talking shop" with a multi unit owner vs "hey im an investor want to sell". You are definitely living proof that you dont need money in order to invest, you just have to want it bad enough that you'll find creative ways in order to get the funding that is needed to get the deal. Hats off to you! Great job to host and co host, looking forward to more shows like this. Now ill "smash" the like and subscribe!
I’m also 21 years old & I’ve been working doing Multifamily doing Due Diligence since 19 after I graduated so I totally get where you’re coming from. I’ve invested as a passive investor in 1 deal in Houston w/ my mentor but looking into owning or partnering & buying a complex myself. I definitely recommend anyone looking into getting into realestate as soon they can. Watch this meeting SO much valuable information! I love how our generation is being more exposed to the multi-family space. Congrats Cody for all the things you’ve accomplished so far & can’t wait to hear more.
I’m in Houston too, do you mind sharing any insights? I’m thinking about getting a condo with my new corporation, I got a good amount for a down payment
I'm impressed by the young man, so focused at such a young age. I'm pretty sure life circumstances within his family keep him this driven, but I love it. I learned some good information from listening to him.
To all of you doubters/haters in the comments. I spoke with Cody and he is wise and mature beyond his years, extremely knowledgeable and it didn’t take long at all to see why he has had the success that he has at such a young age! His genuine care for others really shines through. So to all the haters mind your own business!! If you want to have his level of success you first need to learn to genuinely care about others as much as he does. Cody is succeeding and he is doing it the right way!!
In my opinion, a housing market crash is imminent due to the high number of individuals who purchased homes above the asking price despite the low interest rates. These buyers find themselves in precarious situations as housing prices decline, leaving them without any equity. If they become unable to afford their homes, foreclosure becomes a likely outcome. Even attempting to sell would not yield any profits. This scenario is expected to impact a significant number of people, particularly in light of the anticipated surge in layoffs and the rapid increase in the cost of living.
I suggest you offset your real estate and get into stocks, A recession as bad it can be, provides good buying opportunities in the markets if you’re careful and it can also create volatility giving great short time buy and sell opportunities too. This is not financial advise but get buying, cash isn’t king at all in this time!
You are right! I’ve diversified my 450K portfolio across various market with the aid of an investment coach, I have been able to generate a little bit above $830k in net profit across high dividend yield stocks, ETF and bonds.
Sure, the Financial advisor that guides me is *Camille Alicia Garcia* and she is renowned and has quite a following. So it shouldn't be a hassle finding her. Just look her up.
Congratulations to Cody. I am so proud to see someone able to success it in real estate. I had mentor and coach many people until multi-million. My nephew 18 when he start after 10 years he got over 10 and other retire from owning over 45 properties now
This is a treasure David! Thank you David and Henry for bringing this young man on. He is a phenomenal Being! The knowledge he possesses is awesome and his reason for doing this is so heart felt!
Wow this is so inspiring. I am 22 and currently in school to get my real estate license. I currently work at a photo studio and make about $14 an hour, and honestly I didn’t think it was possible at all to ever get into Real estate unless I had a huge amount of money saved. I guess my fear has been holding me back, shout out to this dude for his bravery and tenacity I’m going to work to get my first property this year
Wow, this episode of the Bigger Pockets podcast with Cody Davis is really inspiring! I completely agree with David's point about sticking to your goals and not justifying buying something off-brand because it worked for someone else. Your story is worth more than any asset you could buy. Cody's success at such a young age is truly remarkable, and I love his approach to life and business. His commitment to only buying deals that support him and his mom once they're paid off is really admirable. And the concept of relationship marketing that Henry mentioned is definitely something I want to learn more about. Thanks for sharing this awesome episode!
This is such a beautiful example, so watch and learn kids...in the end it all about education. He learnt so much from working as an agent, and from beeing around agents. You become who you hang around with. Not just what you study in school, or watch on RUclips, but real action.
Amazing podcast...I am 62..just attempting to get my 1st deal..So wish I would have had the knowledge and drive at 18 years old..Heck I think I was still struggling with how to tie my shoes...I LOVE the BP podcasts...They excite me!!
Do it my friend !!! Am 48 and the deal is done ! Am about to get my deal soon ! Strategies and systems in place !! The key is having the sense of urgency and just do the deal ! I did a Comertial deal a few years ago ! No experience, crashed and burned ! But I learned !! Now 6 years later the war is on :) good luck !!! I did subscribe to your channel !!! Let’s go !!!!! :)
Go for it. I start at 24 and I end up become a real estate agent to help other and help myself. I know no one out there could help me at 1am or 3am if I can not sleep and looking for deals in MLS. Never to late to start if you got deal and need partner or quick private loan maybe I could help
@@unbreakablerogue well the market will be ripe for the picking, so I say wait to buy because everything will be for sale soon. I told my friends this doing the crash of 2008. They didn't listen, they lost their shirts, I sold before the crash and cleaned up after the crash. Sadly we're in a recession weather it's being called that or not and the housing market is headed for a crash.
@@Multifamilystrategy Cody, as it relates to the private financing terms you like to set up for the down payments you mentioned on this podcast, do you mind sharing the specific loan terms which are structured for you and the investors and which you pay on before you cash them out after the rents are raised? P.S. I just subbed yourtube channel and I'll make sure to share it around in some groups to which I belong.
Great podcast!! Love how Cody would circle back to his values and goals to guide the decisions he was making with his business and partners. Also, Henry killed it as co-host of the podcast!
Thank you guys so much. First time on this channel and can't even describe the doors that just opened in my mind. Lately I have been focusing on asking myself the right questions and this guest just helped point me in the right direction. Super grateful!
Great content. Very inspiring. You are doing a great job; what shines brightest is your heart. I wish you nothing by but success in all your endeavors.
I sold a couple properties in 2020 and I'm waiting for a house crash to happen so I buy cheap. In the meantime, I've been looking at stocks as an alt., any idea if it's a good time to buy? I hear people say it's a madhouse and a dead cat bounce right now but on the other hand, I still see and read articles of people pulling over $225k by the weeks in trades, how come?
Yeah, good luck finding owner financing deals. These results are unreasonable, very rare, and are NOT going to be typical. Please don't leave this video thinking this can be done by everyone. This guy got super lucky.
Ladies and gentlemen, a cop out right there. Not only is this repeatable (did it another 6 times since this video) I got 7 other folks I met within the last year to repeat it zero money down. 10+ units. 110 rentals and a resort later, you’re still hating
When it comes to the world of investing,most people don't know where to start.fortunately,great investors of the past and present can provide us with guidance
Same here, I made $12,400 profits on investing since I started trading with Mrs Alice foster his trading strategies are too notch am winning consistently trading with Mrs Alice foster . He is really the best broker I've made a lot of profit investing with her
Those first 30secs resonated with me so hard cause anything i've done other people's way doesn't work out for me but when I do it my way, even if it takes longer, in the beginning, I get better results than my competition
Awesome interview! I really enjoyed this one because I had to use owner financing to get my own home and I'm having to use non-traditional financing to buy deals in the near future as well. Really awesome to see someone around my age succeeding in real estate, sometimes it gets lonely being on a different path at 23 😅
Wow! Cody, You’re heart is in the right place. Good to know that you’re doing do these because it is not only for yourself, family and also for other people… God bless you more… keep inspiring and encouraging others….
Dave's kinda like a cross between Bruce Willis and Brad Pitt. Where have i been to miss you guys?! Such a great convo and great, relevant questions that the audience is asking. Henry and Dave a match made in heaven. Cody should be running America. thx 4 the interview boys.
His hustle is great!!!! I love his “can do “ story. I started wholesaling 5 yrs ago with $0, After being released from my 13th yr in Federal Prison. 50 deals and millions in transactions later now thanks to Bigger Pockets and You tube University!!! If I can do it anybody can.👍🏽💯
Cody's humanity infused response in this rapid fire segment is exactly what every, single industry needs...caring for people genuinely is what makes the difference and will contribute greatly to your level of success. Cody is SUPER WISE, GOD BLESS HIM 🙌 🙏.
Bring Nasar (real estate Doru) back. This co-host is terrible, doesn't provide any insight to the deal analyze. Just agree with EVERYTHING, only Dave is asking the tough questions.
By far this 1 hr video is the one of those videos that is the most valuable time spent on youtube. Others include Jordan Peterson, Meet Kevin and Jordan Belfort
Just subscribed...I randomly ran into your channel and thank God for that. I am a veteran who wants to invest using my VA loan. Great to see such a young man like Cody be an example for all ages in living "The American Dream 🇺🇲" #truschoolsports
Cody - Awesome to see you take action and make so much progress quickly. Washington is a crazy market and your strategy shows that even the most difficult markets can work. I currently work in Moses Lake and I wanted to buy property here, but I can’t because of my contract with my employer. I was excited to hear you call out Moses Lake when I was watching the video. A lot of potential here. I ended up purchasing out of state. Just purchased a single family and short term rental in Florida. Keep the integrity in what you do because it surely fuels what you have going!
@@Multifamilystrategy If I wasn’t getting over COVID I would have love to meet today. Let’s try to meet up on your next visit to Moses Lake. I’m going to be here for work for a while so we have more opportunities if that works for you? Sorry I couldn’t make today work. Not worth getting you sick!
Wow this is cool to see someone this young on a path to success hes doing it like no other great strategies hes using this is a amazing story and great tips your a real estate rock star keep it up i wish you the best of success
Wow this young man is truly amazing and lucky. As a real estate investor for 30 years I thought I had done well owning 4 rentals by 26. You can sometimes lose your shirt like some of my friends have done. I say lucky because if he had had one major repair on his first unit like a 30-40k roof repair on the building depending on the size of course. $15 k for a new boiler and the likes and it's game over if you have no savings. But this young man is obviously very smart. I sold my 6 unit years ago and gave a second mortgage of 20 % to the buyer. After two years the bank foreclosed on the building and they threatened to force me off the property as a mortgage holder. My attorney said pay her off because you'll lose more forcing her off the property as a mortgage holder. They relented and paid me off. I personally will NEVER play bank again. If you can't pay me cash or get a loan keep it moving.
@@Multifamilystrategy I do. And that's because I was lucky enough to be born near compatible opportunities. I would need to be even luckier to find opportunities to become a good surfer if I grew up far from the ocean, for example. I wanted to go into technology and grew up in east coast cities where I could easily achieve that. That's luck. It's fine to acknowledge this. It's not an insult. Just being able to "put yourself in a place where you can recognize opportunities" is a matter of luck. I'm assuming you're referring strictly to legal opportunities because there were plenty otherwise where I'm was born, on second thought.
@@Multifamilystrategy I like this philosophy, hard to be likeable if all you do is drill people on numbers, long game you are in the win. You will be talked about and the net benefit is greater. 👍

@@naureenkhashwji8039 I need one, all these online guru's waste your time watching hours of video to suck you dry with theirs crazy high fees, why not just take a cut of your deals?? Makes no sense.
So many people have such a short attention span because of tiktok and other similar platforms. I'm so glad I took the time to watch this whole video! It was so valuable and I love the story and the message that you brought to light! Thank you for sharing!
Thank you!
This guy's cody has a lot of maturities as compared to his age, as I'm 20 now and my head is exploding after listening to this podcast that I have to foot down on the battlefield NOW! As a person with same age, he got millions of dollars of real estate under contract (not jealous, just a drive to push me)
Thank you Harry!
Mature far beyond his years! Communities need people like Cody!
For 2023, it’s hard to nail down specific predictions for the housing market is because it’s not yet clear how quickly or how much the Federal Reserve can bring down inflation and borrowing costs without tanking buyer demand for everything from homes to cars.
@Craig Daniels yes, transportation, e-commerce among other sectors are expected to experience growth, but who knows, the market has been a basket of surprises.
@@tatianastarcic True, we’re only just an information away from amassing wealth, I know a lot of folks that made fortunes from the Dotcom crash as well as the 08’ crash and I’ve been looking into similar opportunities in this present market, could this coach that guides yo help?
Rent never goes down. So in that perspective buyer demand is irrelevant. Buy to rent, not to own. It's an asset you can always sell. Stop having a short sighted picture.
Everyone let’s take a moment to welcome the new permanent host Henry!
Love, love love Henry as a cohost!!! His original episode is the only episode I have watched 4 times !!!! Love his laugh and he didn’t just sit there as a fly on the wall without valuable insight!! Henry brings it! Loved everything about Cody and wow he’s a great son and inspiration!!!
I am 35 years old I've been investing for the last 9 years I'd like to think I'm fairly savvy although I know there's still plenty I'm unaware of I'm 8 minutes and 20 seconds into this video with this 21-year-old kid and I just learned something already. Thank you!
@@Multifamilystrategy thank you
Asking a real estate broker if it’s time to buy is like asking an alcoholic it was time for a drink.
Not every single one Yolanda, but there is a lot of truth in it. I've been in the business for 22 years and when they ask me that, I say it depends on YOU and I walk them through it. If they have job stability, it's a long term play, and it's comfortable financially, then perhaps yes. If not, I will advise that maybe they should wait or rent.

As buyers, we should boycott and stay away from properties that owns by investors, flippers, Zillow, Redfin, opendoor, blackrock, and many of them inflated this housing market. We should all ignore the housing market in the next year and send a message to those bastards!
@@Robertgriffinne The inflated housing market was created by regulation. People have clamored for regulation to "protect their investment" for decades now. This is the effect. You have two choices. Demand deregulation, or live with it!
So true. The agent needs your commission
@@PhilipMurray251 I watched a video yesterday about this in California and how houses are so expensive there because of supply and demand and how regulations are what stopping the construction of new and more homes...
Thankyou so much for all this info !! This helps so much! I have been a contractor since I’ve been 18 have done basically everything interior wise I’m going to use what you did and build my empire. I am unable to buy a house currently I have a great job, but I am unable to get a loan because I’m 25 so thank you so much. This is definitely awesome!
Very impressive, I’m very surprised by the number of negative comments on this episode. If you don’t catch the free lessons from this episode then you’re listening to criticize. Congrats on your success and thanks for a great episode. There’s so many golden nuggets in here. Why can’t we be happy and celebrate other people’s success and find motivation in their success?
Because it's BS. It's not true.
Such an inspiration. I showed the video to my 10 yr old child. Cody is such an inspiration
Thank you!
This kid is so wise- really is in and does things for the right reasons.
OMG, this is so inspiring man. Great job to the new host and co host, I just recently got into investing and I always found myself on bigger pockets podcasts. Listened in on in when David took the reigns and Brandon going on to bigger pastures. I think this is your first guest and let me just say this was an awesome start!! I am in ahh on your focus Cody, wished when I turned 19 focused on the bigger picture rather than focusing on how long it would take to get to a legal drinking age!! Better late than never I say, your story and approach is amazing especially because I am an extrovert and love building relationships but never to have thought to execute "talking shop" with a multi unit owner vs "hey im an investor want to sell". You are definitely living proof that you dont need money in order to invest, you just have to want it bad enough that you'll find creative ways in order to get the funding that is needed to get the deal. Hats off to you! Great job to host and co host, looking forward to more shows like this. Now ill "smash" the like and subscribe!
Okay
I’m also 21 years old & I’ve been working doing Multifamily doing Due Diligence since 19 after I graduated so I totally get where you’re coming from. I’ve invested as a passive investor in 1 deal in Houston w/ my mentor but looking into owning or partnering & buying a complex myself.
I definitely recommend anyone looking into getting into realestate as soon they can. Watch this meeting SO much valuable information! I love how our generation is being more exposed to the multi-family space. Congrats Cody for all the things you’ve accomplished so far & can’t wait to hear more.
I’m in Houston too, do you mind sharing any insights? I’m thinking about getting a condo with my new corporation, I got a good amount for a down payment
I'm impressed by the young man, so focused at such a young age. I'm pretty sure life circumstances within his family keep him this driven, but I love it. I learned some good information from listening to him.
To all of you doubters/haters in the comments. I spoke with Cody and he is wise and mature beyond his years, extremely knowledgeable and it didn’t take long at all to see why he has had the success that he has at such a young age! His genuine care for others really shines through. So to all the haters mind your own business!! If you want to have his level of success you first need to learn to genuinely care about others as much as he does. Cody is succeeding and he is doing it the right way!!
In my opinion, a housing market crash is imminent due to the high number of individuals who purchased homes above the asking price despite the low interest rates. These buyers find themselves in precarious situations as housing prices decline, leaving them without any equity. If they become unable to afford their homes, foreclosure becomes a likely outcome. Even attempting to sell would not yield any profits. This scenario is expected to impact a significant number of people, particularly in light of the anticipated surge in layoffs and the rapid increase in the cost of living.
I suggest you offset your real estate and get into stocks, A recession as bad it can be, provides good buying opportunities in the markets if you’re careful and it can also create volatility giving great short time buy and sell opportunities too. This is not financial advise but get buying, cash isn’t king at all in this time!
You are right! I’ve diversified my 450K portfolio across various market with the aid of an investment coach, I have been able to generate a little bit above $830k in net profit across high dividend yield stocks, ETF and bonds.
Sure, the Financial advisor that guides me is *Camille Alicia Garcia* and she is renowned and has quite a following. So it shouldn't be a hassle finding her. Just look her up.
She appears to be well-educated and well-read. I ran a Google search on her name and came across her website; thank you for sharing..
WE WANT MORE HENRY! You two have a great dynamic and his organic reflections rock.
Congratulations to Cody. I am so proud to see someone able to success it in real estate. I had mentor and coach many people until multi-million. My nephew 18 when he start after 10 years he got over 10 and other retire from owning over 45 properties now
I loveee this kid!!! Cant wait to see where he is in 20 years!!! Great video guys!!
Thanks!
This is one of the most informative real estate videos that I've seen. Thanks for sharing this story.
Rarely listen to long form videos like this, especially podcasts but this one got me hooked throughout! Thanks guys!
This is a treasure David! Thank you David and Henry for bringing this young man on. He is a phenomenal Being! The knowledge he possesses is awesome and his reason for doing this is so heart felt!
I've been in property maintenance for 20+yrs. I have been wanting to get into property ownership for so long. Thanks for all the info y'all give.
Wow this is so inspiring. I am 22 and currently in school to get my real estate license. I currently work at a photo studio and make about $14 an hour, and honestly I didn’t think it was possible at all to ever get into Real estate unless I had a huge amount of money saved. I guess my fear has been holding me back, shout out to this dude for his bravery and tenacity I’m going to work to get my first property this year
Cool, cant wait to listen to this and do the same.

Kudos to Cody's parents for raising a brilliant young man!! Such an inspiring story!
Thanks!
Wow this is really inspiring. One of my favorite episodes for sure. And Henry is a great host. I hope to see him on more in the future.
Determination. He kept driving 3 hours one way to build a relationship with a seller. You have to have it. Excellent.
Thanks!
@@Multifamilystrategy Thank you very much.
Wow, this episode of the Bigger Pockets podcast with Cody Davis is really inspiring! I completely agree with David's point about sticking to your goals and not justifying buying something off-brand because it worked for someone else. Your story is worth more than any asset you could buy. Cody's success at such a young age is truly remarkable, and I love his approach to life and business. His commitment to only buying deals that support him and his mom once they're paid off is really admirable. And the concept of relationship marketing that Henry mentioned is definitely something I want to learn more about. Thanks for sharing this awesome episode!
Thanks
This is such a beautiful example, so watch and learn kids...in the end it all about education. He learnt so much from working as an agent, and from beeing around agents. You become who you hang around with. Not just what you study in school, or watch on RUclips, but real action.
💪🏻
Amazing podcast...I am 62..just attempting to get my 1st deal..So wish I would have had the knowledge and drive at 18 years old..Heck I think I was still struggling with how to tie my shoes...I LOVE the BP podcasts...They excite me!!
Do it my friend !!! Am 48 and the deal is done ! Am about to get my deal soon ! Strategies and systems in place !! The key is having the sense of urgency and just do the deal ! I did a Comertial deal a few years ago ! No experience, crashed and burned ! But I learned !! Now 6 years later the war is on :) good luck !!! I did subscribe to your channel !!! Let’s go !!!!! :)
Go for it. I start at 24 and I end up become a real estate agent to help other and help myself. I know no one out there could help me at 1am or 3am if I can not sleep and looking for deals in MLS. Never to late to start if you got deal and need partner or quick private loan maybe I could help
62? Whose pic are you using?
@@unbreakablerogue well the market will be ripe for the picking, so I say wait to buy because everything will be for sale soon. I told my friends this doing the crash of 2008. They didn't listen, they lost their shirts, I sold before the crash and cleaned up after the crash. Sadly we're in a recession weather it's being called that or not and the housing market is headed for a crash.
that seller finance was great. The terms totally worked in his favor. Awesome work man. Creative financing is one hell of a tool
Thank you!
When you invest you're buying a day you don't have to work
I'm looking for something to venture into on a short term basis, I have about $6k sitting in my savings

Any specific guide?
@Anderson Sarah thank you, I will write her immediately
Wow, I'm surprised someone mentioned Mrs Catherine of UCLA Anderson financial institute
right time and right place too. not going to find too many people who will do a deal like he found with the washington property. good job man
This was a fun one. I'm 45. Still good stuff for me, but DEFINITELY something I will share with the younger crop of investors.
@@Multifamilystrategy Cody, as it relates to the private financing terms you like to set up for the down payments you mentioned on this podcast, do you mind sharing the specific loan terms which are structured for you and the investors and which you pay on before you cash them out after the rents are raised? P.S. I just subbed yourtube channel and I'll make sure to share it around in some groups to which I belong.
This was honestly super inspirational. My take-away was if you want to do it, DO IT. Wow. Thank you for this video.
Henry is a great co-host! Love his voice and his perspectives.
What a guy cody is!!!!!! Really inspiring he is gonna be very successful best wishes for him. Can’t wait to get started in real estate 🏡
Excellent story Cody! You have just encouraged me to keep on keeping on in my first rental property! 😀
Keep up the great work BiggerPockets!!!
Thank you!
Great podcast!! Love how Cody would circle back to his values and goals to guide the decisions he was making with his business and partners. Also, Henry killed it as co-host of the podcast!
I love that he's considering his mom in all this.
So impressed and proud of you Cody! I honestly didn’t know investing in real- estate at 18-22yr old was possible. Thanks for sharing your experience
I am grateful BP allowed me to come on and share the story!
I am 18 and plan to buy a duplex this year, this show is really gonna help me out. Appreciate it.
Love this Gavin! Make it happen
Thank you guys so much. First time on this channel and can't even describe the doors that just opened in my mind. Lately I have been focusing on asking myself the right questions and this guest just helped point me in the right direction. Super grateful!
This is probably best video I have seen on purchasing large real estate investments. Excellent job
Thanks
What an inspiration he is. He has the right value system down.
He's just so polite and humble.
Love this interview 😍😃
Great content. Very inspiring. You are doing a great job; what shines brightest is your heart. I wish you nothing by but success in all your endeavors.
This was very inspirational and informative, if this doesn't make you want to dive into rental properties, I don't know what will...
Cody is a legend! Just interviewed him a few weeks ago
Awesome episode, as an 18-year-old boy, this definitely brought value to my perspectives. Thank you so much 🙏
Really like Henry's energy! He's a great host 🙌🏼
Dang, that’s awesome. I thought my 5 units at 19 was impressive, but he blows me out of the water.
Can we connect? 5 rentals by 19 is amazing
I sold a couple properties in 2020 and I'm waiting for a house crash to happen so I buy cheap. In the meantime, I've been looking at stocks as an alt., any idea if it's a good time to buy? I hear people say it's a madhouse and a dead cat bounce right now but on the other hand, I still see and read articles of people pulling over $225k by the weeks in trades, how come?
Yeah, good luck finding owner financing deals. These results are unreasonable, very rare, and are NOT going to be typical. Please don't leave this video thinking this can be done by everyone. This guy got super lucky.
Ladies and gentlemen, a cop out right there.
Not only is this repeatable (did it another 6 times since this video) I got 7 other folks I met within the last year to repeat it zero money down. 10+ units.
110 rentals and a resort later, you’re still hating

Awesome interview! I really enjoyed this one because I had to use owner financing to get my own home and I'm having to use non-traditional financing to buy deals in the near future as well. Really awesome to see someone around my age succeeding in real estate, sometimes it gets lonely being on a different path at 23 😅
How do you entice sellers to finance you?

Cody - Awesome to see you take action and make so much progress quickly. Washington is a crazy market and your strategy shows that even the most difficult markets can work. I currently work in Moses Lake and I wanted to buy property here, but I can’t because of my contract with my employer. I was excited to hear you call out Moses Lake when I was watching the video. A lot of potential here. I ended up purchasing out of state. Just purchased a single family and short term rental in Florida. Keep the integrity in what you do because it surely fuels what you have going!
@@Multifamilystrategy If I wasn’t getting over COVID I would have love to meet today. Let’s try to meet up on your next visit to Moses Lake. I’m going to be here for work for a while so we have more opportunities if that works for you? Sorry I couldn’t make today work. Not worth getting you sick!

Wow this is cool to see someone this young on a path to success hes doing it like no other great strategies hes using this is a amazing story and great tips your a real estate rock star keep it up i wish you the best of success
Wow this young man is truly amazing and lucky. As a real estate investor for 30 years I thought I had done well owning 4 rentals by 26. You can sometimes lose your shirt like some of my friends have done. I say lucky because if he had had one major repair on his first unit like a 30-40k roof repair on the building depending on the size of course. $15 k for a new boiler and the likes and it's game over if you have no savings. But this young man is obviously very smart. I sold my 6 unit years ago and gave a second mortgage of 20 % to the buyer. After two years the bank foreclosed on the building and they threatened to force me off the property as a mortgage holder. My attorney said pay her off because you'll lose more forcing her off the property as a mortgage holder. They relented and paid me off. I personally will NEVER play bank again. If you can't pay me cash or get a loan keep it moving.
"It's not luck, it's just being in the right place at the right time."
That's a distinction without a difference if I ever heard one.
Put yourself in a place where you can recognize opportunities. Most people don’t seize opportunities in front of them
@@Multifamilystrategy I do. And that's because I was lucky enough to be born near compatible opportunities. I would need to be even luckier to find opportunities to become a good surfer if I grew up far from the ocean, for example.
I wanted to go into technology and grew up in east coast cities where I could easily achieve that. That's luck. It's fine to acknowledge this. It's not an insult. Just being able to "put yourself in a place where you can recognize opportunities" is a matter of luck.
I'm assuming you're referring strictly to legal opportunities because there were plenty otherwise where I'm was born, on second thought.
love this podcast
I'm 18 years old. This video is inspiring.
So, Lucky kid that found an investor to fund his real estate. congrats for his success
We all make our own luck through our actions and what we put out into the world. Make money or excuses, not both, pick one.
@@Multifamilystrategy I like this philosophy, hard to be likeable if all you do is drill people on numbers, long game you are in the win. You will be talked about and the net benefit is greater. 👍
