      RL M or Richard, but $100K properties in the US are not generally in prime RE markets. How do you address challenges in rental, devaluation etc. I think the example assumes a bunch: e.g., $100K spend (i.e., $500K property at 20% down) will probably net more per year in rental and appreciation than five $100K properties for the reasons mentioned above. It can't be assumed to be linear. Or am I missing something?
      Either that or your 5% net calculation should be on property value in the first example not down payment.

      leveraging a 100K property at 80% gives you a mortgage of 359/month (30 year fixed at 3.5%). the loan service alone would be 4308 of the hypothetical 5000 he referenced...

      We all agree its a 15 minute video but many, I don't think, cought that this $3500 was 25 years ago. For me in crappy CA $100K wouldn't even buy you a small lot let alone a house. I got my property during the house crash in 2009 due to all the short sales i got mine for $235k now worth $700K but i spent 3 months living in the house complete remodel since it hadn't been touched from when it was build in 1957. The pipes, honestly, I don't know how they got any water in the house. Spent what I had in my savings and did 90% of the work myself. Had to save money. took 7 years to pay off and get my savings back. But there are risks and a few more minutes could of touched on repairs, code compliance, insurance, and for me I have a mandatory nonrefundable fee for a credit and background check if they are REALLY interested. The one rental is a few blocks from an elementary school. I am very strict on who i rent to. I even check out their present residence to see how they care for it. Even when i was young starting out and rented i took very good care and many time left it better than when we arrived. But I can do much of the work myself. If you cant then there is ADDED cost to prep the rental. You cant just put a % down unless you did what he did and live in the residence. Most are looking for that get rich quick fueled by these seminar and flippers not knowing the risk and work it actually takes.

      Stocks will plummet further before actually experiencing steady growth and there are still quite a few stocks that makes for a good buy this season, you just have to do your research, but to be on the safer side and not second guess your market decisions, I’d suggest you reach out to a proper investment manager for guidance, they’re better equipped at understanding market patterns/movements and adjusting portfolio to match up with these market trends.

      Yeah, I live in the NYC area and my parents are immigrants from Croatia and the one regret my dad had was not investing in real estate back then. People forget that the city was going bankrupt and real estate was going for nothing. But, he was a house painter, who eventually started his own business but was afraid to take other risks. Here's one example, my dad had a contract to paint rental apartments in a wealthy town just north of nYC. The manager of the complex told my dad the building was going co-op and to buy an apartment or two (This was the late 1970s), a studio was going for $10K, a one bedroom $20K, a two bedroom $30K, and a 3 bedroom for $40K. Now the three bedroom apartment is worth about $500K.
      Here's another one, a Polish neighbor of my parents, back in the 70's, his brother purchased a 3 story walk up between Madison and 5th Avenues around 90th street or so, each floor had two apartments. His brother renovated the top floor into one apartment for himself and the other apartments he rented out. He purchased the building for $48K at the time and now, he gets $48K per year just renting out one of the apartments. I can only imagine what that building is worth now if he were to sell it.
      I know you should never live with regret, especially if you lived a good an honest life, but at the same time, you can look back and wish you've done things differently like my dad has. He always talks about that missed opportunity and he's 80 now.

    From looking at the scenario you setup the 1 property that was fully brought out, should have a higher cash flow because expense were greatly reduced in owning a property without a mortgage. The expense would be taxes, insurance, repairs, and landlord utilities. Compared to the 5 properties where you would have a mortgage payment added to the expenses.

    This is great as a gross overview. As someone that has multiple properties and can buy them for cash, I would say this. Be careful with over leverage. Key points are missing from this video. If you paid cash for one property then it’s yours and the only thing you pay is property tax and insurance if you want to. Let’s say you leveraged 5 properties then your paying all of that plus extra insurance, interest, and capital. You have to add maintenance costs, management, and what if a tenant refuses to pay or remains unoccupied for 2 months? The bank could care less leaving you broke or worst. Let’s add capital gains tax to every property plus closing and agent fees and you could see this is just a pipe dream. Also, it’s already been pointed out, this isn’t the same market right after the real estate bubble. You will be lucky to get a 3% appreciation on your property. Now this is the market that you have to have a 720+ credit score to apply for a loan and banks will not give you a loan if the see that you leveraged 4 prior houses on the money that took you years to raise. What you talked about in the beginning about how you moved from house to house is the way to go. Explore that more Richard.

    • @OmahaTonyG

      I have made hundreds of thousands of dollars using leverage. Paying cash for properties means you lose out on a lot of those gains. Not only that but how long will it take you to save to buy one house? A typical rental property I buy is $100k. It would take 4-5 years of saving to buy one house.

    • @JinNani224
      @JinNani224 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      The Part-time Landlord you can use leverage, it’s about not over doing it. I made over a million and it started with purchasing a 45k house and renting it out for 600 bucks a month. You make money on the purchase price and not appreciation. It’s dangerous for someone just starting out to go and put themselves in debt to the tits. Just living on good luck while hoping no one coughs around you at that point.

    • @ViolentMLG
      @ViolentMLG 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      What caught my eye most was how he explained the profit of 5 homes like it was just that.
      Firstly, I recommend emergency funds, so really, lets say you net 5K a year from a property, IMO, you should put at-least half of that away. A fridge breaks, A/C breaks, the home needs a roof, or anything like that, then you're in hot water. Also vacancy. So while it is money to play with, people forget that real-estate is a game, you can play it how you like, but the more risky you play it, the more you're risking getting burnt. If you're not saving up for a rainy day, when it eventually comes, you better figure something out, otherwise you will lose everything. Sometimes being slow and steady with your money is a good thing, so really, while you may have half of that money AVAILABLE, it shouldn't be used as clear profit.
      I would at-least average 5K-10K in a savings for each house prior to taking the money on full net profit personally.
      Secondly, what REALLY caught my eye was profit. 5K a year profit? That's $500 a month average in profit.
      Now, lets just say hypothetically you can get a home for 100K flat. On a simple mortgage with a good interest rate, after prop taxes and home insurance, you're looking at roughly $700/month. Which means that you need to be able to rent out a 100K home for $1200/month.
      Now, this could be location specific, but where I live (VA), in the city, a general 100K home will rent out for anywhere from $800-$1000/month.
      Usually $1200/Month rentals are homes worth around 140K-180K where I live.
      So I do think this matters. Of-course you could find a good neighborhood with a good deal, but if your home doesn't stand out, then the chances of charging $1200/Month for a basic 2-3BR house is pretty unlikely.
      Especially if you're genuinely trying to buy 5 homes in a short amount of time. Good deals don't pop up 24/7.
      So instead you're looking at a $300/month profit at most.
      Average that out among 5 homes, that 25K drops to 15K/YR.
      If you're setting aside half of that for a rainy day, then you're looking at 7K/YR until you're safe.
      Thirdly, I would say that leveraging equity in a home is a bad play if you're over-leveraging, so assuming you're not over-leveraging here, it isn't always easy because that requires that you got a good deal. Its not impossible, but I wouldn't expect to buy a home and then leverage 20K of equity instantly, then repeat that 5X over in a short period of time.
      A home will USUALLY be determined by its value, and most of the time when you're going to see that 20K in equity is by buying a home that needs to be fixed up, and you DIYing it instead of hiring people to do it, and saving yourself money in places like that, or finding a home so heavily depreciated that you know a contractor can fix it up and make you that money back.
      I'm not saying its not possible, I just think its unrealistic to expect without giving yourself time to find deals and be patient.
      I also would caution the optimism for something like that, 15K/YR really isn't shit. That's 7 year holds on those properties before you even return your initial 100K investment. Now yes, your home can increase in value. Here for example our homes in the city increase as much as 7%/YR. So yes, in 7 years your home may be worth, say, 130K. 30KX5=150K Profit.
      150K for 7 years of time. Its not bad, but, I mean that's not really millionaire status, now is it? An entire decade to return 150K?
      Especially if you're looking at monthly profit @ $300/month. You would need to have at-least 6X the 15K/YR to make 100K/YR comfortably. So realistically you need to spend roughly 600K to obtain 30 homes to net 100K/YR, your portfolio would be 3Mil in homes.
      Now I could also break down flipping homes, using the equity while you own them, and playing the game up prior to that 3mil in homes, but I am just keeping it more simple here.
      To conclude though, If your goal is to just live comfortably, and you could see yourself making 600K in 20 years and living off of your 100K/YR on your homes, then sure, its definitely not a bad investment, but if you want to be grant cardone status, or just anyone who has independence and lives a rich life, especially in a short period of time, you should probably understand that real-estate investing with $3500 that you saved up after working several years probably isn't the play here.
      I'm not trying to discourage anyone from real-estate investing. What I am trying to say though is that you probably need to up your income first.
      Real-estate is like dessert to your success. The meal must come first.
      You don't really build wealth ground-up from realestate, its usually where you go once you have the money, its where you go to finish off your investments.
      Of-course you can trade up properties and equity to become successful, but that's when you start the game with 300K+, not 3.5K.
      It also depends on what game you're playing, the long-game or short game?
      I'm in my 20's and I plan to retire by 35-40, so my plan involves millions of dollars a year on income from a business, in which I then funnel into real-estate, so think out your plan.
      Real-estate is never better than business, but you trade the stress and income of business, from the passive income from housing. Its easier to own passively and isn't dependent on all the factors a business is.

      I totally agree. Not to mention, at least for me, I can NO way rent a property without it being tenant ready. Cost for repairs and may other thing not included. So many more factors that need be put on the table so not to mislead people. I have a house near Huntington Beach Ca. Paid it off 3 years ago and now worth $700k With all that i still have problems with taking money out to reinvest in other properties because being self employed there are many more hoops we have to jump through vs. if we were buying our own property to live in. Primary residence is much easier to get cash out vs. investment property. It does take money to make money not always a lot but a good investor will have some to start. I always keep some aside for those rainy days. Remember Murphy's Law. One thing i made sure of over 20 years ago i made sure i had enough money in the bank to keep my business running for 4 months at least if not 6 months. When bad times hit i never had issues. Others were hurting or loosing. I kept calm weathered the storm and came out OK. Just watched the spending during these times. Just a quick note all the stupid stuff going on lately i contacted my tenants to see if they were OK or if it effected them and I didn't miss a single payment or delay which I was completely prepared for if need be, thankfully nothing happened. As you stated there is SO much more this is just my 2 cents

      Also neglects to mention the dangers of leverage, that if your tenants stop paying money (say in a situation like covid-19...) you are now paying for 5 properties with no income backing it - you have made 5 assets out of nothing/very little, but if they turn into 5 liabilities and you don't have the financial situation to back it up you may well lose it all. It is also not as simple as going to a bank and saying you want another home, they know fully well the more leveraged you are the riskier you are and the less likely they are to lend to you.

Find some investors who are already wealthy pitch your story and let them get you to stardom. I did the do it myself stuff until the banks said your debt to income ratio is all bad. I found investors some who wanted money on returns some who just said give me my money back per month starting this day and time. Investors using there money now my money is how you make it. Now as an investor what he’s saying I will pick your brain too see if you have did your part in learning, researching etc. That is important to the investor so his game is important but it’s not how you make it starting out by no means and it’s 2020 it’s way better ways to wheel and deal!!!

      Did we watch the same video? He leveraged FHA on the basis of the low capital requirement. After accumulating equity within the first property, he leveraged that equity as the down payment on the mortgage for the subsequent property acquisition. Repeat, repeat, repeat, realize appreciation, million dollar+ portfolio and the true explicit out-of-pocket remains the initial 3.5%. Also, (presumably) cash flow the entire time. Then proposed some additional example deals using round numbers. We didn't watch the same video I guess

    Your on point with your assessment. The only flaw in your approach is if your houses go vacant. In that scenario, you would have over leveraged yourself resulting in the inability to pay all your mortgages. Or, at the very least, not realizing the financials you shared with your audience. I would prefer to keep some cash on hand just in case. So instead of buying 5 houses, only buy three or four.

      thats what i was wondering, even if its 5 conventional loans without pmi, the mortgage is still deducted from cashflow, vs the 100k home owned is 100% cashflow and when sold 100% profit, both ways are great, but i think with the time span of 5 years held, buying one is better, if you hold the 5 homes longer term (maybe 10 years) and have more equity (from tenants paying the mortgage down) when sold you make out huge.

      Terry Mitchell Basically, there are certain things you can deduct from your real estate earnings. One of the main things is depreciation. Since real estate is categorized as Plant, Property or Equipment they are subject to this thing called depreciation. When you goto do your taxes your CPA will have that calculated already by via a calculation or their software. Other expenses that can be deducted is maintenance, advertising, insurance etc. The list goes on and on. Having a good CPA is key because they will find everything you can deduct. So basically lets say you made $15,000 off one property in a year. Lets say your depreciation was $3,000 and total expenses was $4,000. Your real estate income would now be $15,000-$7,000 = $8,000. Thats the income that will be taxed as opposed to the $15,000. Sorry if its still confusing. Im currently an accounting student working to get my CPA. Right now im a tax intern at a place where real estate is 85% of our focus. Eventually, I will get into. But anyways, hope this helps my friend!

      @@dequanjenkins3590 You don't need a license to own properties. You need a license to sell properties (a real estate agent license). I'm a real estate investor 'beginner' myself. I bought two properties, both of which appreciated quite nicely after the past recession. One of the was occupied by a renter, the other by my parents (and still is). It's all about Equity (how much money you have in the properties) and your Loans (Debt to Assets). The bank will decide if you have enough equity/collateral for them to give you more money. But, I'm now about to start buying more properties in the next 6-12 months to take advantage of the downturn. To do this, I'm going to make sure that I create an LLC first and buy proper insurance to cover myself. I'm going to place these properties in this LLC instead of owning them under my name. This way, if anything happens, I'm protected and my assets won't be touched. I haven't done this yet - but I will do this pretty soon. I'll try to document the entire process on my Channel. I'm also planning to document/make videos of the houses I buy on my channel also. Right now though, I'm waiting for the economic issues to take prices down as people default on loans later on in the year. By the way, I MIGHT also get a real estate agent license if I think that's something that I wanna do. It'll help me buy my own properties...my wife is going to study for that first, so, that'll be a lot of help to me. My past two properties were just bought at the right time and at the right locations.

      Multi-family investing bridges that gap. Same lending program, same 3.5% down up to 4 units; stipulation being you need to owner occupy as primary residence for at least a year. If you don't over-leverage yourself (cash flow comfortably covers debt service), and find an actual deal during a time like now, you can seriously expedite the process as opposed to the single family investing route. Added bonus in this model is transforming what typically is your biggest expense into a revenue stream. My speculative, unrequested .02¢

      It's all about being smart. Always try to buy homes for less than market value. This way as soon as you step in the door, you have made a profit. Buy that $100k home for $40k short sale. If they have it listed for $110, offer $90 and if they say no then walk away. Always get the homes and, depending on where you live, the land inspected. For example, I live in Florida and sinkholes have been ruining homes...That way you can say no to that home with a bad foundation or bad roof, or if you still get it you can negotiate a fair price. Plus, insure your properties appropriately just in case something is still missed or a disaster occurs. Investing is about being an asshole to anyone else that isnt in your best interest. You SHOULD walk away from more deals, than you take on. You need to be disciplined enough to accept that reality and don't let some commission whore sauce your ego into making a bad buy. Some deals will profit, and some may loose. The idea is be smart so you have more winners than losers.
      When it comes to tenants. Do credit, criminal history, and employment checks for all of your prospective tenants, plus make sure they earn more than 2.5-3 times your rent monthly, plus make sure they get renters insurance. If you don't want to do this yourself because it can be alot of work if you have alot of units (like a small apartment complex), then you can outsource a reality group to do it for you if you are ok with losing that % for the convenience. However, this is less of an issue with single family homes because its literally a few hours of work (per applicant) for a year of income or more of income. Doing this means you may have to pass on alot of prospective tenants at first, but you have to keep your interests in mind. I would only accept someone who has a less than stellar packet if they made a large security deposit and/or pay so many months in advance. For example a medical student who has no income and lower credit, but pays for the full year in 1 or 2 payments--yes, this happens because they get huge financial aid packages. Plus, even though their credit isn't as good, they got into med school and should be more focused on that than partying. I was one of those students, so that's what gave me that idea. I wouldn't accept a band or art major in the same condition though. Call me biased, but I feel like they wont study as much and may party more. In the end, there will always be a level of risk, so don't think you can completely eliminate it. Just try to reduce it as much as possible.
      There are alot of small details that can't be covered in a short 14min video, but the idea of this video is to get you learning. If you are really interested, you should probably either go and take an investment class, a finance class, a risk management class, a real estate class, and/or find a mentor that'll take you by the wrists, allow you to shadow, etc. You can do it all on your own, but you can learn leaps faster with instruction. No matter the route to getting started, its still going to be a slow step-wise process. Nobody likes to make the sausage, but its so yummy! You build 1 layer at a time. Example: Make a financial foundation, then buy one home. Then build a new financial foundation for a second home (so now you have 2 homes). Then build a new foundation for 2 more homes ( now you have 4), and it keeps growing. You don't just go from 1 home to 5 homes instantly, he's just providing perspective. If you watch some of his other videos, he also talks about how he likes to have a 12 month "rescue fund" in case something happens. This means that if something like COVID happens, he can still pay all his bills for at least a year.
      Oh, and the overall investment stratification philosophy works across ALL markets--not just real estate. So just like how you can setup multiple streams from multiple homes, invest in different types of stocks, overall you want to build a diverse portfolio. Create stable residuals, and then feel free to gamble on more volatile massives from time to time when you can afford the risk/reward.

    I agree with the math but this scenario IS best case scenario. I used this exact model 15 years ago. I'm in the DMV area so 1st off you're not purchasing one property let alone 4 more at 100K. So the prices I was dealing with were triple those in this scenario. 2008 was when the financial crisis hit. I had 3 tenants that loss their jobs by 2009. I'm not trying to scare anyone but you must must must prepare for the unexpected downfalls. Don't expect that "cashflow" to go towards the vehicles like the beginning of this video. I applaud anyone that can make it work but this model is best case scenario.

    I love the idea of leveraging however my only issue is if you buy 1 property outright for $100k as opposed to 5 properties you cannot assume both will have 5% net profit. $100k property has no mortgage therefore has a much higher % net profit than the other 5 properties which will be mortgaged. % net profit of the 1 property may very well be greater than the 25% total net profit from the 5 properties and needs to be assessed on a case by case basis if it is worth it. Nonetheless the profits received from selling the 5 properties will always be higher than the profits from selling the 1 $100k property alone. However we all need to access what our financial objectives are and see if our intention is to sell the properties or not.
