I've been doing crazy amount of research lately on properties. l'm noticing condos in the b and c neighborhoods around me are looking like it can be a monthly cash flow of about $550 per month for each one & costing around 75k before putting 20% down.

Icurrently have enough for the down payment on about 5 of these types of condos. Is there something I'm missing here?
I bought 4 properties this year. The process is quite simple. The key is to just get started. The beauty about rental properties is that you can "earn while you learn." BUT do not shop on your own. Use BP or an agent to help you find the deals. Also, I'm in the Dallas area and the numbers don't make sense. All of my properties are out of state in cash flowing markets (OKC and Jackson, MS). I have quality property management to look after my properties. I know it is counter intuitive, but you do NOT want to invest in your same neighborhood. You'll want to check on the propety all of the time and it will drive you crazy. It will completely take the "passive" out of passive income.

We tried the rental house thing and the returns were so low, unless you paid cash for the house, that it didn’t make sense. A couple hundred bucks a month return then you have tenants do 4 grand in damages over a year period will set you back a ton. We’ve been buying vacant land and turning them into rv rental spots and I’m making 1200 bucks a month per property with only 30 grand invested in each to get them ready to rent. Way more money and if the tenants tear up their rv it’s not my problem.

Great information. I appreciate the help, will be purchasing my first rental property (3 or 4 unit) in a year and getting things prepared. Will be recommending the video to others as well.
Be careful in New York. The laws are in favor of the tenant. They could potentially live there rent free for over a year with some lame excuse not to pay rent and having no other place to live.
Last October, one of our tenants talked about their parents buying our building and asked if we interested in selling. We tried to work out that deal, but it fell through. So we told our tenants we were planning to sell "next year". They both (duplex) gave notice about 20 days later and left us empty at Christmas. I would still do it the same way if I had a do over - they were faithful and on time even mostly through COVID and for almost a decade previously

I've BEEN ready to do this. My only set back is I live in a small town where there's no good real estate for sale. And I don't have the money to buy something and fix it up. And I wouldn't feel comfortable buying something very far out of state that I can't hop out of bed and be there if need be
I’ve came from a small town as well. You might not want to hear this, I know it’s 2 years later so god knows where you’re at this point. I had to move out of the small town and get somewhere populated to be able to get into buying homes. I’m on my second home. Thinking of pulling a second mortgage to fund getting into rental properties. If you buy a home.. your opportunities expand in what you can borrow with banks.
Step número uno😀 nice I choose to invest on the beautiful coast of Spain. I'm steps away to get my second property there. I'm over the moon 😀 I have so much to learn but I still believe that taking action is more important than knowing everything!!!
@BOYCOTT FRANCE I'm on the coast of Valencia. Prices are not going up, but they don't go down as much as I'd like to see either :) But there are places that makes sense to buy. Some people might be desperate in these pandemic times and you might find good deals.
I ended up with my first rental property sort of on accident and it’s turned out to be great. This video gets me fired up to go after another one! Thank you!
Brandon, I have had the pleasure of listening to many of your audio books. I have purchased my first fixer upper and while it was a single-family home, I was still be able to house hack as I rented a room to my sister rather than her stay in the dorms of the local university. I recently flipped a property and am looking to roll the profits into my next BRRR property. Thank you for all of your insight!
It's crazy how the universe works...When I first started searching for my first property I was lead to your blog or website yeast ago...I gave up due to self-destruction and I finally found the courage to finally get my first property officially now...And this video is a RUclips Suggestion...Man thank you for everything you do and thank you for not giving up as I did years ago...Well here's take 2...

I have about $25,000 saved up now at 19, and am planning on splitting a $250,000 rental townhouse 50/50 with my grandpa. I have to buy out of state though because I live in an extremely expensive area.
Whoa whoa whoa, Maui?! Same here. I’m always depressed by the prices here. How can you start here? Love to see a video or some advice on starting in an expensive market; Hawai!
The problem with such a hot market is that houses are so expensive that there isn’t any cash flow. They aren’t renting for as much as mortgages will be.
I love your high energy and yes it's something to be excited about. With real estate you can't go wrong. The odds it would not be profitable are like being struck by lightning!
I like how the first thing he says after purchasing the book his wife and himself wrote was "if you don't want to buy it go borrow it from a library". This dude is legit. There are too few people in the world these days not trying to make a buck off of everything they do.
It has been well over a year since I listened to you Brandon (side tracked with other things) and look at your amazing beard!! I love it! Glad to see you and your family made it out to Hawaii! Shaka Bra!
Hii brandon i have recently read your book "The book on rental property investing" and i loved it however I have a question and this is just some thing that can to my mind so i wanted to ask you that do legal rental property owners have any problem with the real estate mafia.
Finding a fixer upper makes the most sense to me. buy low. NEVER use the Inspector recommended by the Agent. They are working for the Agent, not you. You have to find the Inspector on your own, perhaps one not in the county, or the inspection will likely be fudged and you could be royally screwed.
So I have a 2019 mobile home 2br 2bath that I added a room to. It’s paid off, but is in a lot that dosent allow renting and it is small for my family of 4 children and 2 adults. Do you suggest I rent my home out and buy a house or rent a house or should I sell my home and use that money to buy a home and live in it until Im ready to move out and buy another house and rent out that house I move out of?
What if you already have your own home but want to get in the rental investment? What would do in this case? Do you take out the equity to purchase the investment?
How to you account for hidden defects like asbestos in vent registers or a sewer stack breaking?? How much do you set aside for reserves for hidden defects?
Knowing the area and general construction practices will help with that part. Knowing professionals in mechanical and construction can give you insight what to look for and ballpark costs.
What do you do if the apartment is rent controlled when you purchase the rental property? Can you evict the current tents? Do you legally have to pay them to leave?
Is there a video on how we can determine where to buy property? Do you look at price to rent ratios first? Community, sales prices, taxes and rental laws for LTR vs STRs? Thanks

Get the longest loan term you can. You can always pay extra if you want to, however it's best to just save that extra cash to purchase your next investment property. Let the bank hold the debt while you build your empire. 20 years is usually the standard for rental properties in my experience.
You'll need to have some sort of savings & cash on the side. But at the same time you don't have to have 50 Grand in the bank. Hurry up and use that VA home loan. I used my VA home loan on two fourplexes and then I used FHA on another fourplex and I'm getting ready to use my VA home loan again on a Triplex. Of course this was over time
I think I am bit confused how we get benefit from rental property. Your rental income is part of your income and part of sell assessment. Then you pay tax as normal. Unless you buy a property on companies name. Bit clarity requires. Just thought to mention. But I love ur content
Hi, loved the video. Would it be smarter to try to pay off the mortgage sooner than the original loan duration? Or would it be best to save that money for other investments? Taking inflation into account..Thanks.
I don’t have RUclips premium but want to take note as I watch so here the quick summary. 1. Find the market. Local 1-2h away or out of state (long term). Out of state will require special handling and teams. 2. Get Pre-Approved: Bank or Local lender. If you plan to live in the property for a year or so. You can have as low as 3% down. Other way is partnering if you have no money. Bring the deal and they bring down payment. 3. Learn how to analyze property. (You can use BP calculator). Understand the property income (information can be collected from PM) and see the real expenses. Focus on the money cash flow and Cash-on-Cash Return (The return your money make in a year). 4. Shopping for properties and tryna determine the number and see what can work out. Start with a real estate agent (the one who works with investors) and have them send the type of property ur looking for as an email automation. 5. Practice LOTS of deal analysis. Become great at it and understand everything. 6. Make your offer. Ur Agent is gonna help you with this. Rejections will happen, it’s normal. Make sure you offer enough. Find ways to improve your offers. Until you get one under contract. You may have to pay what’s called Earnest money, around 1%. It serves as a pledge or a promise that you’re serious about the property. Usually refundable when you buy or back out for a good reason. 7. Due diligence. Do inspection. Agent will help find attorney and insurance and company that help u close. Verify rental income and expense. Send payment and closing. 8. Manage the property. Find a great Property Manager. Keep an eyes on them. You can also self manage, it’ll save your money but it can be a lot of work and you’ll need great systems to make it easy to manage.
My issue is getting my second property. I managed to refinance my primary to buy a duplex in full. So where do I go from here? I have a HELOC to pay back so where do I get money to get my next property? Fixed it up and have it rented for higher than I got it. Van I refinance the duplex to get another property or do I pay off the initial HELOC first? Can I have two properties with loans on them at the same time?
Would you keep renting a property for you to live in, whilst you pursue building up a rental property portfolio? I could probably pay off a property in my area in 6.5 years, with a repayment mortgage rate of 2.49%. I could buy a rental property outright and obtain a (gross) return of 22% pa.
When you get a loan, it will be either owner occupied or a rental, which drastically affects your interest rate. You could always lie, and claim you’re living there, but of course that’s illegal. In short, yes, you’d need to live there for 1 year prior to renting it
ThanksFor the video it’s encouraging because I was looking into long-distance rental properties but my family keeps telling me that is a set up for disaster. Thank you for reassuring but it’s possible and OK to do. You just picked up a subscriber
My offer was just accepted and this is my first rental property and it is very expensive. I know that I don’t have a cash flow. But I know the market very well. I know for sure that i will have no problem with renters. Because the location is superb 2 mins away from the university and the hospital. I will be good in the long run... The market here ( Southern California) is so expensive...

😲You moved to Hawaii! I've been out of the loop for a while. 🤣Choked out a 90yo woman, good job. 👍🏼As always, good tips. I'm hoping to get my 23yo old son into rentals. He saved almost $9k already. We're looking to use the low down, live in, multi unit strategy for the first property. He works 5 days a week, a plays video games on his spare time and kind off a lazy procrastinator. Do you think this will work for him? I figured if he gets a bunch of multi units with property management he won't have to worry about dealing with the rentals and can retire early.

Before you invest in your first rental property, should you establish your own business by forming an LLC or something like that?
I bought 4 properties this year. The process is quite simple. The key is to just get started. The beauty about rental properties is that you can "earn while you learn." BUT do not shop on your own.

A couple hundred bucks a month return then you have tenants do 4 grand in damages over a year period will set you back a ton. We’ve been buying vacant land and turning them into rv rental spots and I’m making 1200 bucks a month per property with only 30 grand invested in each to get them ready to rent. Way more money and if the tenants tear up their rv it’s not my problem.
Hello I am looking in to real estate and buying land but I don't know where to start do you mind giving some suggestions thanks in advance and congratulations on your success.
Thats genius 👏🏻 🙌 👌
It's more about cashing out the house for the value that they put into it. It's basically using someone else's money while you take the risk
1-Cash Flow
2-Loan Pay down
3- Appreciation
4- Tax Benefits
How to Buy
1-Market -Feel for prices, connect with other rental property owners
2-Get pre-approved-Network with other real estate investors in the area
3-Learn how to analyze properties- Find income from property manager, expenses from property owner- Monthly cash flow + CoC Return
4-Shop for properties - Start with a real estate agent -automatic emails
5- Analyze all the deals -analyze potential properties
6- Make your offer - quick and smart -you will get rejected- analyze enough and offer enough - improve offer (letter/faster)- under contract (earnest money) 1%- pledge
7- Due diligence - inspection from local inspection -title company - verify rental amounts and income and expenses - line up a property manager - insurance- close
8- manage the property
Thank you!
Thank you so much I'm a single mom of four great video I been looking into this since 2019 ❤
I'm still working on getting that down deposit
Shout out from Maine ! cant wait to get started... im in the education phase of all of this but i'm super excited.
Great information. I appreciate the help, will be purchasing my first rental property (3 or 4 unit) in a year and getting things prepared. Will be recommending the video to others as well.
I love Bigger Pockets! Thank you for everything you share with us Brandon.
I own a rental home in New York that I want to sell. Should I wait until my tenants have moved out - or tell them the bad news now?
Be careful in New York. The laws are in favor of the tenant. They could potentially live there rent free for over a year with some lame excuse not to pay rent and having no other place to live.
Last October, one of our tenants talked about their parents buying our building and asked if we interested in selling. We tried to work out that deal, but it fell through. So we told our tenants we were planning to sell "next year". They both (duplex) gave notice about 20 days later and left us empty at Christmas. I would still do it the same way if I had a do over - they were faithful and on time even mostly through COVID and for almost a decade previously
I’m 60 years old looking to diversify part of my savings say $250k into real estate but I hear it is not a good time to invest in Real estate. Can i get any idea on other options?
@@kucheranraina9201 My portfolio grew by 1,000% within 10 months. Couldn’t have put it better myself. Last year a colleague introduced me to a financial consultant Jennifer Elizabeth Boland who has been helping me find investments that have significant growth potential. She invested my money in reputable companies which their stocks must always rise after any dip.

Good information! Very broad and gives us the opportunity to learn and confirm on our own. THANK YOU!
Totally agree. great video. As they say landlords grow rich in their sleep without working, risking, or economizing.
I've BEEN ready to do this. My only set back is I live in a small town where there's no good real estate for sale. And I don't have the money to buy something and fix it up. And I wouldn't feel comfortable buying something very far out of state that I can't hop out of bed and be there if need be
I’ve came from a small town as well. You might not want to hear this, I know it’s 2 years later so god knows where you’re at this point.
I had to move out of the small town and get somewhere populated to be able to get into buying homes. I’m on my second home. Thinking of pulling a second mortgage to fund getting into rental properties.
If you buy a home.. your opportunities expand in what you can borrow with banks.
Step número uno😀 nice
I choose to invest on the beautiful coast of Spain. I'm steps away to get my second property there.
I'm over the moon 😀 I have so much to learn but I still believe that taking action is more important than knowing everything!!!
@BOYCOTT FRANCE I'm on the coast of Valencia. Prices are not going up, but they don't go down as much as I'd like to see either :)
But there are places that makes sense to buy. Some people might be desperate in these pandemic times and you might find good deals.
I ended up with my first rental property sort of on accident and it’s turned out to be great. This video gets me fired up to go after another one! Thank you!
Loved the video, straight to the point and very helpful!👍
Brandon, I have had the pleasure of listening to many of your audio books. I have purchased my first fixer upper and while it was a single-family home, I was still be able to house hack as I rented a room to my sister rather than her stay in the dorms of the local university. I recently flipped a property and am looking to roll the profits into my next BRRR property. Thank you for all of your insight!
Have you considered forex investment,,it's a wise decision to multiple streams of income
It's crazy how the universe works...When I first started searching for my first property I was lead to your blog or website yeast ago...I gave up due to self-destruction and I finally found the courage to finally get my first property officially now...And this video is a RUclips Suggestion...Man thank you for everything you do and thank you for not giving up as I did years ago...Well here's take 2...
How is it going?

I BOUGHT 6 MOBILE HOMES EACH ON THEIR OWNS LOTS WITHIN 1 BLOCK OF EACH OTHER AND PAID CASH. OVER 60K A YR MONEY BACK IN 2 YRS
I'm almost at 4 units and I want more. Where do I go from here?
I have about $25,000 saved up now at 19, and am planning on splitting a $250,000 rental townhouse 50/50 with my grandpa. I have to buy out of state though because I live in an extremely expensive area.
And ensure your credit is built enough to get said loans right?
How about if you don’t have good credit to get
Finance. Can a single family/ townhouse be rented after the owner(me) live in for a yr then rent??
So how do you prove to the banks that y out can pay for all the mortgages on Althea rental property’s.
Whoa whoa whoa, Maui?! Same here. I’m always depressed by the prices here. How can you start here? Love to see a video or some advice on starting in an expensive market; Hawai!
Would it be good to create an LLC first before buying the property?
Do it after you have the place and in the city you bought the rental.
The problem with such a hot market is that houses are so expensive that there isn’t any cash flow. They aren’t renting for as much as mortgages will be.
I love your high energy and yes it's something to be excited about. With real estate you can't go wrong. The odds it would not be profitable are like being struck by lightning!
How many properties should you analysis
I like how the first thing he says after purchasing the book his wife and himself wrote was "if you don't want to buy it go borrow it from a library". This dude is legit. There are too few people in the world these days not trying to make a buck off of everything they do.
Can you guys do a video or rec a vid on purchasing foreclosures?
Whats your opinion on renting out my primary home after it is paid off?
3:39 "If you find that prices are just too expensive in your market, you can always invest long distance."
If there's a will, there's a way.
Yeah,, investing with a company makes it that much sweeter
You would have to really trust the company. My buddy says his best rentals are the ones he lives close to. I guess b/c he can keep an eye on them.
It has been well over a year since I listened to you Brandon (side tracked with other things) and look at your amazing beard!! I love it! Glad to see you and your family made it out to Hawaii! Shaka Bra!

Hii brandon i have recently read your book
"The book on rental property investing" and i loved it however I have a question and this is just some thing that can to my mind so i wanted to ask you that do legal rental property owners have any problem with the real estate mafia.
Appreciate the Great content what part of Florida are you investing in?
10 offers 9 rejections still equals 1 acceptance , Great Show, you guys rock at Bigger pockets True advice
omg this is Brandon Turner..... loving his book right now.
Finding a fixer upper makes the most sense to me. buy low. NEVER use the Inspector recommended by the Agent. They are working for the Agent, not you. You have to find the Inspector on your own, perhaps one not in the county, or the inspection will likely be fudged and you could be royally screwed.
Thank you for that sir
hi mate hope your re doing good, this video is for those who lives in Canada ?
So I have a 2019 mobile home 2br 2bath that I added a room to. It’s paid off, but is in a lot that dosent allow renting and it is small for my family of 4 children and 2 adults. Do you suggest I rent my home out and buy a house or rent a house or should I sell my home and use that money to buy a home and live in it until Im ready to move out and buy another house and rent out that house I move out of?
What if you already have your own home but want to get in the rental investment? What would do in this case? Do you take out the equity to purchase the investment?
See if your bank lets you do a HELOC home equity line of credit
Heloc can be variable rate. Compare it to cash out refinance, which may be fixed rate. Check with a mortgage broker.
How to you account for hidden defects like asbestos in vent registers or a sewer stack breaking?? How much do you set aside for reserves for hidden defects?
Knowing the area and general construction practices will help with that part. Knowing professionals in mechanical and construction can give you insight what to look for and ballpark costs.
What do you do if the apartment is rent controlled when you purchase the rental property? Can you evict the current tents? Do you legally have to pay them to leave?
Have to ask a real estate lawyer
Breaker breaker 1-9. Do you copy??

Can I buy the name u see my name then transfer it to the LLC?

Do you look at price to rent ratios first? Community, sales prices, taxes and rental laws for LTR vs STRs? Thanks
Can you do a video on the pro/con of 15 /30 yr mortgage if it’s going to be a rental property
Hey all. If you watch his videos from a year ago, or 2 or 3 years ago you'll notice the process doesn't change. Thats because its really this simple. I found BP in 2017 bought 2 rentals in 2018, 1 in 2019 and about to buy 7 units before the end of this year. I could have bought much more in a shorter period of time. Fear and inaction were my barriers. Once people know you are an investor they will find you money, find you deals and help you grow, its ridiculous. Take informed action...do it today!
Get the longest loan term you can. You can always pay extra if you want to, however it's best to just save that extra cash to purchase your next investment property. Let the bank hold the debt while you build your empire. 20 years is usually the standard for rental properties in my experience.
Why does the making an offer comes first before doing your due diligence?
if i have a va loan but nothing saved up should i still get a Duplex or should i still have something saved for emergencies
You'll need to have some sort of savings & cash on the side. But at the same time you don't have to have 50 Grand in the bank. Hurry up and use that VA home loan. I used my VA home loan on two fourplexes and then I used FHA on another fourplex and I'm getting ready to use my VA home loan again on a Triplex. Of course this was over time
How long is your preapproval normally good for? I don't want to be pushed into something just because the preapproval is going to expire, you know?
I think I am bit confused how we get benefit from rental property. Your rental income is part of your income and part of sell assessment. Then you pay tax as normal. Unless you buy a property on companies name. Bit clarity requires. Just thought to mention. But I love ur content
Great information well received….
Thank you
Hi, loved the video. Would it be smarter to try to pay off the mortgage sooner than the original loan duration? Or would it be best to save that money for other investments? Taking inflation into account..Thanks.
I don’t have RUclips premium but want to take note as I watch so here the quick summary.
1. Find the market. Local 1-2h away or out of state (long term). Out of state will require special handling and teams.
2. Get Pre-Approved: Bank or Local lender. If you plan to live in the property for a year or so. You can have as low as 3% down. Other way is partnering if you have no money. Bring the deal and they bring down payment.
3. Learn how to analyze property. (You can use BP calculator). Understand the property income (information can be collected from PM) and see the real expenses. Focus on the money cash flow and Cash-on-Cash Return (The return your money make in a year).
4. Shopping for properties and tryna determine the number and see what can work out. Start with a real estate agent (the one who works with investors) and have them send the type of property ur looking for as an email automation.
5. Practice LOTS of deal analysis. Become great at it and understand everything.
6. Make your offer. Ur Agent is gonna help you with this. Rejections will happen, it’s normal. Make sure you offer enough. Find ways to improve your offers. Until you get one under contract. You may have to pay what’s called Earnest money, around 1%. It serves as a pledge or a promise that you’re serious about the property. Usually refundable when you buy or back out for a good reason.
7. Due diligence. Do inspection. Agent will help find attorney and insurance and company that help u close. Verify rental income and expense. Send payment and closing.
8. Manage the property. Find a great Property Manager. Keep an eyes on them. You can also self manage, it’ll save your money but it can be a lot of work and you’ll need great systems to make it easy to manage.
My issue is getting my second property. I managed to refinance my primary to buy a duplex in full. So where do I go from here? I have a HELOC to pay back so where do I get money to get my next property? Fixed it up and have it rented for higher than I got it. Van I refinance the duplex to get another property or do I pay off the initial HELOC first? Can I have two properties with loans on them at the same time?
Would you keep renting a property for you to live in, whilst you pursue building up a rental property portfolio? I could probably pay off a property in my area in 6.5 years, with a repayment mortgage rate of 2.49%. I could buy a rental property outright and obtain a (gross) return of 22% pa.
Do you really have to live in a property for 12 months before renting it out? Or can you just instantly rent it out?
When you get a loan, it will be either owner occupied or a rental, which drastically affects your interest rate. You could always lie, and claim you’re living there, but of course that’s illegal. In short, yes, you’d need to live there for 1 year prior to renting it
ThanksFor the video it’s encouraging because I was looking into long-distance rental properties but my family keeps telling me that is a set up for disaster. Thank you for reassuring but it’s possible and OK to do. You just picked up a subscriber
What area of Maine is the place to look?
Bigger pockets! Yessir 🔥🔥💸
My offer was just accepted and this is my first rental property and it is very expensive. I know that I don’t have a cash flow. But I know the market very well. I know for sure that i will have no problem with renters. Because the location is superb 2 mins away from the university and the hospital. I will be good in the long run... The market here ( Southern California) is so expensive...
I live in socal as well and am looking to invest in my first property…how has urs been going since its been 11months now?
It was a great buy, thank God! The price appreciate from 382k to 480k in 9 months. It was a good timing. And I have great renters.
Hi i wanted to ask a question, Do I need a real estate company and a team (attorney, real estate agent, advisor, etc.) before my first real estate investment or could I start on my own just by buying, renting & selling?

🤣Choked out a 90yo woman, good job. 👍🏼As always, good tips. I'm hoping to get my 23yo old son into rentals. He saved almost $9k already. We're looking to use the low down, live in, multi unit strategy for the first property. He works 5 days a week, a plays video games on his spare time and kind off a lazy procrastinator. Do you think this will work for him? I figured if he gets a bunch of multi units with property management he won't have to worry about dealing with the rentals and can retire early.

Hello guys
I want to know if someone has the money to buy the property in cash and then rent it or to pay 20% in down payment with 80% mortgage ?
Would these be the correct steps in the correct order for a BRRRR or flip property where conventional lending is out the window due to the poor condition of the property?
I'm jumping in next month. Wish us luck! 👌🏽🤞🏽
How’s it going
You are incredible
I don’t manage my own properties myself. I don’t have the temperament for it. Where I live the management fees are not that high.
Any guidance on how to structure a partner deal? Meaning someone is putting in all the down payment or half of it and I'm finding the deal. How to split the profits if I (deal finder) would be getting an FHA loan in my name and living in the property. Thanks
