Thanks for the motivation to keep pushing forward! We are almost a year in to owning our first property in the smokies and cant wait to see where this adventure takes us!
Hey Rob! Great video! I loved listening to you on BiggerPockets. Can you share what you know about cowboy pools? How have they helped with your listings and how much do they cost to install? You should do a whole video on cowboy pools
I'm just 8 min in but what he is sharing about increasing ROI also applies to LTR. I don't own any STR but have been focusing on increase ROI on my existing LTR rather than buying additional properties in this market.
@Robuilt I had 4 turnovers from long-term tenants this summer and did value add work during the make ready work, such as refinishing the kit cab with new hardware and granite countertops where applicable, new flooring, new bath vanity and things like that. Anyway, the additional spend fetched a great return. I've spent that last few years adding 2 or 3 properties a year until 2023, and afterwards, decided to focus on value add work and rent increases as they become available. It was kind of stressful getting 4 unexpected vacancies over the summer, but put my plan in to action and now going into fall with additional cash flow that's the equivalent of adding 3 or 4 additional properies to my portfolio. Thanks for asking, and I appreciate your content!
I hate misleading claims. You won't "pocket" 1 mil. It will cost at least 350k to sell it, what you spent on it isn't gain, and you probably have to recapture a lot of depreciation you wrote off, then you have capital gains. So maybe you pocket 400k. Which is good but a huge 3.2,+ mil risk. You should be honest and stop misleading unassuming fools into jumping into these high risk scenarios only to lose their ass.
There is certainly a possibility he does "pocket" 1 mil on this property. 1. His mortgage is not 3.3... it was probably 80% of that. 2. His renters are paying the mortgage so even his mortgage "cost" is profit in the equity 3. The monthly net has certainly paid back their initial investment plus some over the last 3 years 4. rolling this into another property using a 1031 would avoid the other "costs" you've listed. It's not misleading to say he would pocket 1 mil because he could. Are there caveots to that statement sure! But it's do different than if you during a casual conversation tell me that you just sold your car and pocketed 20k... no you didn't... but we both know what you mean.

Love this. How are you increasing ROI with your long-term rentals? Renovations and additional square footage?

How about an update on your flip failure from almost a year ago?
Interesting perspective! So you’re saying 'door count' is just a vanity metric? 🤔 Makes me rethink my strategy entirely!

Woooow! You’re awesome. It’s always such a delight to get these. Thank you.
great video
Great content! Awesome background bro. Is that one of your property?
At the very beginning of the video? That’s my living room!
@@Robuilt Yes. That's awesome!
Hi Rob, do you offer 1:1 consultations?
Seconded
I keep thinking of upgrading my home in joshua tree but idk if it will be worth it.
I'd focus a lot on the backyard experience than the in-home experience.
@Robuilt for sure. I have amenities. I guess it needs to look better.
Hogwash. You saved it by posting TH-cam videos on it
