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!

One of the most important things for me has been to understand it’s the long game. I’m not into the quick money game. Multi Family Real estate is all about the hold. Get rich over time. Rental real estate is the most forgiving investment. Slow and steady allows you to compound.
My first rental was a 4 bedroom me and my partner purchased and rented 2 of the rooms that covered the mortgage with extra to spare! That was just the beginning....
I wasnt financial free until my 40’s and I’m still in my 40’s, bought my second house already, earn on a monthly basis via my investment and got 5 out of 5 goals, just hope it encourages someone that it doesn’t matter if you don’t have any of them right now, you can start TODAY regardless your age INVEST and change your future!

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.

My new years resolution is to buy my first home / rental by the end of the year. Already have an agent sending me properties. Going to learn how to analyze them now!
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.
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 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!
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.
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...
@@skylershoup5627 well my first deal was a bust due to lack of funds so ive been working and saving so i can just purchase my first property out right since my credit sucks...Gotta crawl before we walk...
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.
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.
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!
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!
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.
BP is an awesome resource to learn and get started in RE. I believe the most lucrative investment and fastest path to financial freedom is short term rentals. You could be financially free after only a few properties as compared to long term rentals where you'll likely need dozens of doors to reach the same numbers.
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!
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'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.
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!
I got lucky. Got my 1st house with 0% down. All I got into it is some small repairs. Looking to get my first Tennant in a few months when I go work out of town. Looking to make some deals when I'm gone to build on that momentum
@Sayjaeb honestly, that's where I'm stuck. My friends have a trusted realtor they work with to do the screening based off their criteria. I may just do that.
Personal Notes: 1. Determine your market / use realtor.com, Zillow, you can also invest long distance w/ David Greenes book 2. Get pre approved by bank or local lender 3. Learn how to Analyze properties! / bigger pockets website has a calculator, find cash on cash return 4. Shop for properties / Tip for beginners: use a real estate for help 5. Analyze deals / do this every day 6. Make your offer & be prepared to get rejected, learn from every rejection - earnest money: when your property is under contract this is your “pledge/place holder” to the seller, usually 1% of property, typically refundable 7. Due Diligence / use an agent or property manager to help you. Everything you do between contract and closing - inspection on property from local prop inspector - title company to help closing - if there’s already tenants make sure you verify their rental rates - get insurance 8. Manage the property or hire a manager - nobody will care about your property as much as you - brandon has a book on this

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
One of the bad things about living in the UK is you need 25% down payment to buy a rental property and you get a slightly higher interest rate on the mortgage too. I think it’s to deter the wealthy buying up all the property and cornering the housing market so people can own there own homes. In the UK there is a big emphasis to own your own home, it’s instilled from an early age.
I think the only people making money from rental property investing are those selling videos, books or subscriptions as the numbers make zero sense. Lets take the two points made in this video, Cash on Cash Return and Positive Cash flow. Cash on Cash Return: I've looked at no less than 100 potential rental properties that ranged in price from $170,000-$350,000. In every instance without exception the property required a down payment of 30%-40% in order to achieve cash flow of just $200/month. With such a down payment the cash on cash return is about 1.5% which you could easily get on a Money Market Account and no hassles. Positive Cash Return: The video mentions a $200/mth positive cash flow. Lets put this in perspective. With a rental that generates $200/mth cash flow you'd need 80 properties to make $200K per year. The hassle factor associated with trying to manage this many properties makes working at Burger King a better option. Is making money from rental properties viable? I don't know, I'm just sharing my experience and observations but what I can tell you is the countless videos and books vastly underestimate both the potential return and degree of difficulty.
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.
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?
Just found your channel visited hundreds of other channels seems like everyone trying to keep it a secret 🤫! Worlds big enough to share Thanks for your advice .
I personally enjoy playing in the job market. I don’t see it as a type of slavery at all. i mean if you’re scrubbing toilets sure you have the right to hate it but if you’re in a decently interesting field like Computer Science or engineering,then there’s plenty to do and think about to have fun.
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
Same here amber, im gonna start from scratch(completely). I have NO money saved up(none, at all) and im gonna get another job, to get enough for a down payment and buy a rental property, ill comment on this thread again once i take the next step. Good luck ladies and gents!
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.
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.
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.
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.
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?
😲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.

I think if 2020 has taught us anything about the economy, it is to have multiple streams of income, preferably streams that the government won't shut down.

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.
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.

@@tannerwoolley2551 of course! I understand the hesitation some people find with the strategy. To be completely transparent - I do leave some money in the deal. So if you're looking to have no money left invested in the deal, than that is not the exact way I use the strategy. In my experience - this is where some people get concerned with the strategy.
@@LoriLivers you’re literally saying what my wife and I have been saying for weeks now, why can’t you leave money in the deal?? You’re still gaining wealth, cash flow, and paying down equity? Unless I’m missing something that’s a huge downside?

Thank you!
I love Bigger Pockets! Thank you for everything you share with us Brandon.
Totally agree. great video. As they say landlords grow rich in their sleep without working, risking, or economizing.
Thank you so much I'm a single mom of four great video I been looking into this since 2019 ❤
My new years resolution is to buy my first home / rental by the end of the year. Already have an agent sending me properties. Going to learn how to analyze them now!
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.
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 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!
Good information! Very broad and gives us the opportunity to learn and confirm on our own. THANK YOU!
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
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.
Before you invest in your first rental property, should you establish your own business by forming an LLC or something like that?

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?
@@skylershoup5627 well my first deal was a bust due to lack of funds so ive been working and saving so i can just purchase my first property out right since my credit sucks...Gotta crawl before we walk...
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.
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.
Shout out from Maine ! cant wait to get started... im in the education phase of all of this but i'm super excited.
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.
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
omg this is Brandon Turner..... loving his book right now.
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!
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.
BP is an awesome resource to learn and get started in RE. I believe the most lucrative investment and fastest path to financial freedom is short term rentals. You could be financially free after only a few properties as compared to long term rentals where you'll likely need dozens of doors to reach the same numbers.
I watched your last few videos.. honestly really interesting on the STR stuff
@@bobwillis6584 I prefer forex trading
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!
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.
Loved the video, straight to the point and very helpful!👍
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.
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!
I got lucky. Got my 1st house with 0% down. All I got into it is some small repairs. Looking to get my first Tennant in a few months when I go work out of town. Looking to make some deals when I'm gone to build on that momentum
Whats the process of finding tenants that’s the part I’m stuck on
@Sayjaeb honestly, that's where I'm stuck. My friends have a trusted realtor they work with to do the screening based off their criteria. I may just do that.
Great information well received….
Thank you
Great introductory video for newbies! I liked the part on carrying out due diligence and always keeping a look in on your properties - thank you!
10 offers 9 rejections still equals 1 acceptance , Great Show, you guys rock at Bigger pockets True advice
You are incredible
Personal Notes:
1. Determine your market / use realtor.com, Zillow, you can also invest long distance w/ David Greenes book
2. Get pre approved by bank or local lender
3. Learn how to Analyze properties! / bigger pockets website has a calculator, find cash on cash return
4. Shop for properties / Tip for beginners: use a real estate for help
5. Analyze deals / do this every day
6. Make your offer & be prepared to get rejected, learn from every rejection
- earnest money: when your property is under contract this is your “pledge/place holder” to the seller, usually 1% of property, typically refundable
7. Due Diligence / use an agent or property manager to help you. Everything you do between contract and closing
- inspection on property from local prop inspector
- title company to help closing
- if there’s already tenants make sure you verify their rental rates
- get insurance
8. Manage the property or hire a manager
- nobody will care about your property as much as you
- brandon has a book on this

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
Can you guys do a video or rec a vid on purchasing foreclosures?
Super helpful! I train jiu jitsu too! It's a great metaphor on starting something new and working towards any goal.

One of the bad things about living in the UK is you need 25% down payment to buy a rental property and you get a slightly higher interest rate on the mortgage too. I think it’s to deter the wealthy buying up all the property and cornering the housing market so people can own there own homes. In the UK there is a big emphasis to own your own home, it’s instilled from an early age.

Good Video l learned a lot about getting into rental properties. I am new to the real estate industry.
Thank you! Great video!
Awesome..thanks. I love your books too man
So helpful. Thank you
I think the only people making money from rental property investing are those selling videos, books or subscriptions as the numbers make zero sense.
Lets take the two points made in this video, Cash on Cash Return and Positive Cash flow.
Cash on Cash Return: I've looked at no less than 100 potential rental properties that ranged in price from $170,000-$350,000. In every instance without exception the property required a down payment of 30%-40% in order to achieve cash flow of just $200/month. With such a down payment the cash on cash return is about 1.5% which you could easily get on a Money Market Account and no hassles.
Positive Cash Return: The video mentions a $200/mth positive cash flow. Lets put this in perspective. With a rental that generates $200/mth cash flow you'd need 80 properties to make $200K per year. The hassle factor associated with trying to manage this many properties makes working at Burger King a better option.
Is making money from rental properties viable? I don't know, I'm just sharing my experience and observations but what I can tell you is the countless videos and books vastly underestimate both the potential return and degree of difficulty.
Blessed Saturday Sir Bigger Pockets,thank you for your help in how to invest in Real Property for the millions of people around the world
Thanks for viewing and contributing! I’ll share some beneficial knowledge. Let’s converse on the number above
I'm jumping in next month. Wish us luck! 👌🏽🤞🏽
How’s it going
Thank you Brandon
Invest in real estate in Tulum Mexico, returns are of the charts!
The choking out of the old lady statement was hilarious
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.
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.
Great video Brandon 👍🏼🙌🏼👌❤️Thank you!!🙏🏽
Just found your channel visited hundreds of other channels seems like everyone trying to keep it a secret 🤫! Worlds big enough to share Thanks for your advice .
Nice!
Some GREAT information here
Bigger pockets! Yessir 🔥🔥💸

I personally enjoy playing in the job market. I don’t see it as a type of slavery at all.
i mean if you’re scrubbing toilets sure you have the right to hate it but if you’re in a decently interesting field like Computer Science or engineering,then there’s plenty to do and think about to have fun.
Amazing breakdown!! 🙌
Very helpful video with great tips for the people who are new to real estate.
Finally something useful, thank you!
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
Ready to stop making excuses and finally jump out of my comfort zone to do this!
Yeah, let’s see an update. Find a property yet?
Me too
Do it. Best decision you can make.
Same here amber, im gonna start from scratch(completely). I have NO money saved up(none, at all) and im gonna get another job, to get enough for a down payment and buy a rental property, ill comment on this thread again once i take the next step. Good luck ladies and gents!
Me too, best of luck my friend
Nailed it. Most concise and thorough Rental 101 I've ever seen 👍🏼
Thank you for sharing your wisdom!
Thank you
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
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.
This is a great place for me to start. Thanks for the info
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.
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
I'm still working on getting that down deposit
Gotta stop listening to everyone around me telling me not to do it. Im doing what i want now.
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?
😲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.

I think if 2020 has taught us anything about the economy, it is to have multiple streams of income, preferably streams that the government won't shut down.

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.
Great video! I started my channel about real estate investing recently and this is good advice.
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.

@@LoriLivers thank you!! Everyone we’ve talked to says it’s a terrible idea. Could my wife and I connect with you by chance to get your thoughts???
@@tannerwoolley2551 of course! I understand the hesitation some people find with the strategy. To be completely transparent - I do leave some money in the deal. So if you're looking to have no money left invested in the deal, than that is not the exact way I use the strategy. In my experience - this is where some people get concerned with the strategy.
@@LoriLivers you’re literally saying what my wife and I have been saying for weeks now, why can’t you leave money in the deal?? You’re still gaining wealth, cash flow, and paying down equity? Unless I’m missing something that’s a huge downside?

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?
