Real Estate provides cashflow, tax benefits, equity building, competitive risk-adjusted returns, and inflation protection on its own. Whether you invest in physical properties or REITs, real estate may help you diversify your portfolio and reduce volatility. Dividends are what got me into investing in REITs, great way to secure the accumulate wealth, I hold AMT, CCI & PSA. $290k in profits made in 2022.
Consistently investing in high quality dividend paying REITs & companies over the long term is a relatively easy strategy to create generational wealth. My "boring" REITs portfolio paid me over $4,000 in dividends last month.
It's time to make high value games! Discounted dividend stocks. Ever grateful to my CFP “Natalie Lynn Fisk’’ I now have a six-figure REIT portfolio, which includes, but is not limited to; AMT, SPG & PSA.... I now have 606 shares of AMT which pays dividends of $3800 per year.

Hello, been listening for 6 months now and truly great info. I've been reading negotiating books like Never Split the difference, etc. Question, how do we use this information for buying houses when my agent is the interface?

19 year old here -- Since graduating high school, I've been nerding out on real estate investing and all the BiggerPockets forums. I plan to start my journey through househacking, but as a college student its so difficult to save for a down payment! I hope to have saved for a 5% down single-family home by the end of 2023!!
Is it true you pay higher interest rate and more down payment on a property as a business rather than buying it as a home and living there for one year and moving out onto your next property?
In the video 12:20, you said at one point switch jobs to work more with real estate. I, for example, work as a general contractor for storm damage (hail and wind damage). My question is, after building yourself a small real estate portfolio. Would you switch jobs in my position?
I’m definitely going to take advantage of my Bigger Pockets membership and learn how to scale! I appreciate this video and all the content you provide David.
David thank you for this amazing video I currently have 12 rentals in Oklahoma I only have loans against two of them I have five rentals here in California I have loans against all five I have about $2 million in equity and about $700,000 in cash and I am trying to figure out the next step of my journey thanks again for this great video you actually got me off my butt got my pencil out and I wrote a partial plan so let’s make 2023 a great year
I was able to get a tenant into my first rental property very recently, after an embarrassing amount of time of vacancy. Now I think I'm just gonna let the cash pile up however I know the next thing for me to do is find a good CPA
@@jewel56 it took about six or seven months to do some mini renovations like painting and replacing of some plumbing stuff. As soon as I listed it the first property management company I went with kind of pissed me off. So by the time I went with the second company and got it on the market that's when the rent started to decrease, so it was like I was always just behind the curve. I think my rent price dropped by about $150 from the original listing price over the course of about 5 months or so
I just became a real estate agent this past year in central Pa. I didn’t like the market area and low and older homes. I relocated to Denver CO to become an agent, im currently working on my real estate license. My goal is to be able to invest in my first real estate property in 2 years or less. My 10 year plan is to own and operate 10 business / and or real estate properties.
FHA loans only require 3.5% down whereas DSCR loans require 20% down. FHA loans require 1 year of owner occupancy. DSCR loans are for investment properties, and I do not believe you can use them for a SFH even if you're renting out rooms. They do not look at personal factors as much and may be ideal for someone self-employed. Overall, FHA if possible for househacking.
as people work remotely, do you look at the connectivity situation of an area (is there high speed bandwidth that is reliable) as a matrix of investing?
i started with a househack 4 years ago and now own 10 properties. what will happen is you'll talk to a lender and they will let you know what you qualify for based on your income and debt to income ratio and credit score.i would get quotes from at least 4 lenders as they can be very very different. i had lenders qualify me for as little as 293k and all the way up to 450k so a huge spread. once you have your max price, then its up to you to know your market, in terms of what you can rent your house hack for to make sense. i encourage people to try to eliminate as much of their living expense as possible for their first property. that lets you save more monthly which lets you invest quicker into your second property
@@JusdoinstuF on my channel I have multiple live streams talking about investing long distance and out-of-state. All of my rental properties except for my very first one which was a duplex house hack have been added distance and out of state. I could write an entire 30 page paper on how to get started investing out of state. But I think it really makes sense for a lot of people who like me, might live in an area like Seattle which is very expensive. The numbers make more sense in the midwest. I don't encourage anybody to just jump into it out of state Market without doing tons of research building a team and getting prepared. But if you're willing to put in the work you can become very successful investing at a distance. Great question
David, Thanks so much for your generosity of spirit in doing all of these podcast episodes. I'm going to buy my first investment property next year and was trying to decide whether to go the residential or commercial real estate route. So, I appreciate your thoughts on mixing investment holdings. Similar to Matthew who commented earlier, I'd appreciate more insight on how to exercise a Bridge loan option...Thanks again and please tell Beardy Brandon I send greetings!!
Hello from Idaho, bought 3 homes in 2020, airbb is saturated in Boise proper (North End) we have one and it has been very profitable and successful since 2020 but now we are converting it to a LTR because of the over saturation. We had lots of applicants for the home when we put it up on the market for rent. Only 3 days of non occupancy between ABB conversion to LTR, just enough time to get it ready. Great place to live, especially in spring summer and fall
Want to get into real estate investing i have good credit but not a lot of income. I live in California which is a very expensive market. I am willing to venture out of state dont know where to start ? Ive heard of DSCR loans where they dont require proof of income or tax returns sound appealing. Trying to figure out what asset class i should be looking at duplex fourplex multifamily and insight and thoughts would be appreciated.
Avoid paying money for expensive courses. Get a local mentor that's an investor/agent to help you. There's a lot of scams out there, so be very careful with your money.
a lot of different investors have their own methods. I've done 10 properties in 4 years. I average 18-22% cash on cash returns. Typically my calculation is as follows (rent x 0.7) - PITI > 250. so rent multiplied by .7 because i set aside 30% for vacancies maintenance and paying a property manager. i take the remainder minus principal interest taxes and insurance "PITI" and if the remaining number is higher than 250 a month its a "great deal" for my market. i have several videos showing the numbers on this.
You need millions of dollars to be investing in so many areas and sectors .. only billionaires can do what he says .. pie in the sky for the average joe .. talk is very sexy tho

some of these bridge loan companies are particulary risky right now. my mentor who is very experienced and has 25 rentals compared to my 10 just got the rug pulled by Kiavi because they changed their with all these rate hikes and what not. and he wasn't able to get the terms promised earlier. i would be very careful with a bridge loan right now at least
@@MillennialMike Great advice Mike, thank you very much for your insight. I will definitely take a cautious approach to any bridge loans that I may be pursuing.
@@evanagor8404 personally if you have access to a HELOC that's what I would use instead. I purchased two properties cash this year did all the remodels from HELOC and then did the cash I refinance on the back end to pay myself back. I talked about it in more length on my RUclips channel. But I like the HELOC process better because that money is completely under my control the whole time from start to finish and I don't have to rely on a company changing their rules.

David thank you a million you're a genius in real estate, endless blessings to you and your crew. I have my 401 and I really need help to move to pay down on properties do you know anyone could help me? Thanks
Thank you
I will be watching this several times. Absolute gems, thank you David!
Awesome
I would like to speak to you about the finance options that you mentioned...
Great video! What do you think of fund and grow company who helps real estate businesses?
Any ideas on what a data engineer can do in real estate without abandoning field?
Love u bro! Thank you for the video!
Thank you! Looking into mid-term rentals!
Thanks for the awesome video. I can use all the beginners help i can get.
David thanks great bookmark with this one. What percentage of the purchase price do the dscr loans cover?
Typically 80/20 LTV
Thank you 😊
How do you check how a market is performing ? In regards to prices and movement etc?
Check out reports like the Milken Institute that rate markets based on a number of factors.
Hi David, thanks for the really informative videos. For a newbie like me, these are very helpful. Can you please make a video explaining the different kinds of mortgages that you mentioned? Thank you so much.
Alright just send an email to

wonderful information David. Much appreciated!
How should I approach getting my first rental property in 2023 if I wanna invest out of state?
Acquire and read the two BP books - Long Distance Investing and Rental Property Investing. Read them and act :) Step 1 get your personal finances in order Step 2 find lenders or partners
I’m a mortgage loan officer that was unfortunately paid off due to the market but the knowledge I learned during that time was invaluable. Moving into 2023 I’m going to leverage some of that knowledge to buy my first multi family
So glad I listened to this VIDEO!
Hello, been listening for 6 months now and truly great info. I've been reading negotiating books like Never Split the difference, etc. Question, how do we use this information for buying houses when my agent is the interface? Am I at the mercy of his negotiating skills, or is there some type of negotiating strategy meeting needed?
Thanks for the shoutout to us travel nurses ❤❤❤
19 year old here -- Since graduating high school, I've been nerding out on real estate investing and all the BiggerPockets forums. I plan to start my journey through househacking, but as a college student its so difficult to save for a down payment! I hope to have saved for a 5% down single-family home by the end of 2023!!
Is it true you pay higher interest rate and more down payment on a property as a business rather than buying it as a home and living there for one year and moving out onto your next property?
Great video thank you 🙌
Where do you find Dscr loans? I searched on google but don’t see where I go to apply.
Great video! Looking forward to close on my first BRRRR in the Jacksonville area and start my portfolio in 2023.
that’s a hell of an experience and knowledge for a person just turn 18
In the video 12:20, you said at one point switch jobs to work more with real estate. I, for example, work as a general contractor for storm damage (hail and wind damage). My question is, after building yourself a small real estate portfolio. Would you switch jobs in my position?
Looking to focus on buying flips to whole sale , flip or buy and hold.
I’m definitely going to take advantage of my Bigger Pockets membership and learn how to scale! I appreciate this video and all the content you provide David.
David thank you for this amazing video I currently have 12 rentals in Oklahoma I only have loans against two of them I have five rentals here in California I have loans against all five I have about $2 million in equity and about $700,000 in cash and I am trying to figure out the next step of my journey thanks again for this great video you actually got me off my butt got my pencil out and I wrote a partial plan so let’s make 2023 a great year
hi, would like to ask how u got started. thanks
Sounds like what you’re doing has been working so far.. would also like to learn from you if you have Instagram or any other platform
way to go! Let me know how else I can help
@@jjfern23 one house at a time 🤘
I was able to get a tenant into my first rental property very recently, after an embarrassing amount of time of vacancy. Now I think I'm just gonna let the cash pile up however I know the next thing for me to do is find a good CPA
Steven, why do you think it took so long to place your first tenant?
@@jewel56 it took about six or seven months to do some mini renovations like painting and replacing of some plumbing stuff. As soon as I listed it the first property management company I went with kind of pissed me off. So by the time I went with the second company and got it on the market that's when the rent started to decrease, so it was like I was always just behind the curve. I think my rent price dropped by about $150 from the original listing price over the course of about 5 months or so
I’m 21 I’ve worked at nothing but warehouse jobs I’m curious on what are some real estate jobs that you would recommend with 0 experience
I just became a real estate agent this past year in central Pa. I didn’t like the market area and low and older homes. I relocated to Denver CO to become an agent, im currently working on my real estate license. My goal is to be able to invest in my first real estate property in 2 years or less. My 10 year plan is to own and operate 10 business / and or real estate properties.
I’m Looking to house hack using fha loan or dscr loan ! which of those are are best to use ?
I'd start by using FHA/Conventional... You'd likely take on a lower rate than using DSCR!
FHA loans only require 3.5% down whereas DSCR loans require 20% down. FHA loans require 1 year of owner occupancy. DSCR loans are for investment properties, and I do not believe you can use them for a SFH even if you're renting out rooms. They do not look at personal factors as much and may be ideal for someone self-employed. Overall, FHA if possible for househacking.
@@jewel56 thank you
@@fthb_denver thank you
DCSR loan? Great information, any BP videos, blogs or books about this or just loans? Thanks
@Kerry Baird thanks
Reach out and I'll connect you. Or ask a mortgage broker if you already have one
love how data driven this is
as people work remotely, do you look at the connectivity situation of an area (is there high speed bandwidth that is reliable) as a matrix of investing?
Love this episode. Would really like to see POD on on that Bridge Loan option and how how you would run a deal with that.
If you buy in another state do you pay they're taxes?
That’s Hilarious I live in Wichita KS!
Preach it David
This is awesome , exactly what i was looking for for inspiration for next years investing
How about the money consideration? If you only have 40k to invest where you put it for your first invest it?
good advice, im looking to do an FHA in 2023 and house hack. should i buy based off my income or my downpayment potential?
i started with a househack 4 years ago and now own 10 properties. what will happen is you'll talk to a lender and they will let you know what you qualify for based on your income and debt to income ratio and credit score.i would get quotes from at least 4 lenders as they can be very very different. i had lenders qualify me for as little as 293k and all the way up to 450k so a huge spread. once you have your max price, then its up to you to know your market, in terms of what you can rent your house hack for to make sense. i encourage people to try to eliminate as much of their living expense as possible for their first property. that lets you save more monthly which lets you invest quicker into your second property
@@MillennialMike nice work .
@@JusdoinstuF thank you
@@MillennialMike whats your thoughts on investing out of state?
@@JusdoinstuF on my channel I have multiple live streams talking about investing long distance and out-of-state. All of my rental properties except for my very first one which was a duplex house hack have been added distance and out of state. I could write an entire 30 page paper on how to get started investing out of state. But I think it really makes sense for a lot of people who like me, might live in an area like Seattle which is very expensive. The numbers make more sense in the midwest. I don't encourage anybody to just jump into it out of state Market without doing tons of research building a team and getting prepared. But if you're willing to put in the work you can become very successful investing at a distance. Great question
What can you do if you can only afford 2?
Pure HOT GOLD ...thanks David !!

Hey David
I’m a Realtor myself and I’m wondering if you have an Office down here in Miami. I would LOVE to be part of your team.
David, Thanks so much for your generosity of spirit in doing all of these podcast episodes. I'm going to buy my first investment property next year and was trying to decide whether to go the residential or commercial real estate route. So, I appreciate your thoughts on mixing investment holdings. Similar to Matthew who commented earlier, I'd appreciate more insight on how to exercise a Bridge loan option...Thanks again and please tell Beardy Brandon I send greetings!!
Whats the best capitol anybody can start with ? And best homes ?
Hello from Idaho, bought 3 homes in 2020, airbb is saturated in Boise proper (North End) we have one and it has been very profitable and successful since 2020 but now we are converting it to a LTR because of the over saturation. We had lots of applicants for the home when we put it up on the market for rent. Only 3 days of non occupancy between ABB conversion to LTR, just enough time to get it ready.
Great place to live, especially in spring summer and fall
hi would love to get in contact with you to ask how u are doing what ur doing..would love to do what ur doing. thanks
Want to get into real estate investing i have good credit but not a lot of income. I live in California which is a very expensive market. I am willing to venture out of state dont know where to start ? Ive heard of DSCR loans where they dont require proof of income or tax returns sound appealing. Trying to figure out what asset class i should be looking at duplex fourplex multifamily and insight and thoughts would be appreciated.
Oh, I LOVE the dramatic intro!!!! ❤
Is there a playlist or playbook that walks through step by step the stages of evaluating and buying a property
You're going to have to join a group or pay an individual to teach you.
Avoid paying money for expensive courses. Get a local mentor that's an investor/agent to help you. There's a lot of scams out there, so be very careful with your money.
a lot of different investors have their own methods. I've done 10 properties in 4 years. I average 18-22% cash on cash returns. Typically my calculation is as follows (rent x 0.7) - PITI > 250. so rent multiplied by .7 because i set aside 30% for vacancies maintenance and paying a property manager. i take the remainder minus principal interest taxes and insurance "PITI" and if the remaining number is higher than 250 a month its a "great deal" for my market. i have several videos showing the numbers on this.
Lots of gems 💎 Thank you!
Great video David!!! 🚨
Another Great watch, Can you provide your lender(s) that do loans based on the property income? Appreciate it.
All questions goes to my email thank you

With the DSCR, and Bridge Loans, do we need to put 10, 15, 20% down???
Those are usually investment loans and yes, 20%down.
You need millions of dollars to be investing in so many areas and sectors .. only billionaires can do what he says .. pie in the sky for the average joe .. talk is very sexy tho
Such a poor mindset to have.
Lol you’re so funny 😂 but informative

I could use some of those connections for them loans ! @bigger pockets
I’m going to be a first time real estate investor next year, the goal is to get one small multifamily property myself(maybe house hack) and partner with my mentor on another small multifamily.
Where did you get your mentor?
@Charles Scott that's what I'm trying to find. I reached out to one who wants 15k for an 8 month mentoring program.
@@charlesscott3471 we met in the work place, probably not recommended lol, but it is what it is.
He’s less of a true mentor and more like a friend that got into the business before me

Hi David. Thank you for the very informative video, I really enjoy all the content you put out. Anyway I’ve ran the spreadsheet on home that I’m interested in and the numbers look great. Only problem, I cant get funding due to the lack of its safety and soundness. Im interested in a BRIDGE LOAN, please point me in the right direction. Thank you!
some of these bridge loan companies are particulary risky right now. my mentor who is very experienced and has 25 rentals compared to my 10 just got the rug pulled by Kiavi because they changed their with all these rate hikes and what not. and he wasn't able to get the terms promised earlier. i would be very careful with a bridge loan right now at least
@@MillennialMike Great advice Mike, thank you very much for your insight. I will definitely take a cautious approach to any bridge loans that I may be pursuing.
@@evanagor8404 personally if you have access to a HELOC that's what I would use instead. I purchased two properties cash this year did all the remodels from HELOC and then did the cash I refinance on the back end to pay myself back. I talked about it in more length on my RUclips channel. But I like the HELOC process better because that money is completely under my control the whole time from start to finish and I don't have to rely on a company changing their rules. Just my thoughts best of luck my friend
