    This video represents a light renovation I did over a 3 month period while also renovating another house that can be seen here- • $12,000 HOUSE - One Ma... The land that this house sits on, originally 30 acres was sold in the 1960's which was part of a larger piece of land owned by my family. After the owner died, I purchased it from his son and daughter to get at least part of the land back in the family. It of course, now has this house on it which is nice because I am renting the house to cover the cost of buying it. I got a mortgage and the payment is $856. The house rents for $1000. While I had a significant amount of my personal cash tied up in the downpayment, closing costs and the renovation. Going forward, the mortgage is covered. I will have costs in addition, but I'm ok with that. I was fortunate to buy the house for about $60k less than it could be sold for, while I'll never sell it, it's a bonus. As far as the renovation, my goal was to just take care of what needed fixing and updating but not do anything extra. Basically, just make it rentable and move on to my normal real estate investing and renovations. This house while dated, is in great condition. I will, of course, get the , "You should have" and "I would have" comments, but again, this is not a profitable house and it is maxed out as far as rent. I strictly bought this property to secure the land. With that said, In the future, I will do things that will improve the property as well as make it profitable and even recreational for my family.

      That's the part that makes me genuinely Happy for you is getting the family land back. That in itself is priceless. As far as the house goes the possibilities are endless. And I agree I LOVE that shower down stairs.!!! A real Man's basement (blank canvas) waiting to be customized. Oh, and I love this Lucas guy too. He's a super cool,Cat!! Until da next one Dirty Jersey Mike out!!!

      @@moneymakingmikeg.9555 Thanks Mike. It was a nervous decision for me as I paid more for that house that I've spent to buy all my other houses combined but I don't regret it one bit. And yes, that Lucas guy aint too bad. A regular guy working hard, living his dream and providing for his family. People worship celebrities for their money, looks, clothes, cars and dumb stuff they do while real guys like him are true heros to be admired. I've never been a fan boy of "famous" people but it was not until recently that I TRULY realized how much your regular ole Joe that goes to work, stays out of trouble, a good man, husband and father, etc, etc....is the real hero. I know I'm going off topic, but for those reading, consider how hard it is to work for your money, to be taxed before you can even have it, then the majority of their spending is for the benefit of others. Not tooting my own horn, more my Dads and others out there that grind through life every day taking care of those around them. What did you do to me Jersey Mike...you got me going. I think that is why I am drawn to channels like @1806StoneHOuse It shows something real that people can relate to which is what my personal goal is with my own channel as far as how they are presented. At least I hope that's how they come across..... Dirty Southern John Doe Out!!!

      His wife is very lucky.. Every man should know some skills in something.. My husband and son know a lot of skill.. I'm native American and we learn many skills at a young age..I have to say this so don't hate on my opinions. I think many liberals would give this man some hate. Cause almost all men are not to know these type of skills and many other skills men have been learning for over thousands of years. We come across many of those video's..And seen them attack men like this by using nasty hateful words.. We have seen women that are homemakers. And make videos of things they have learned.. And liberal women have left nasty comments.. I know cause one of them was a good friend of mine. That got attacked..

    From one rental owner to another I recommend installing curtains rods yourself to the wall as above all the window frames. Make sure they are secure too.
    We had 3 renters tack sheets and whatnot to the window trims or put up the horrible elbow curtain brackets damaging the original window trim. It just seemed to be an issue with even the nicest and tidiest of renters.
    We have yearly leases and made that change 3 years ago. We have had two renters and no issues.

    • @MultiLisa10
      @MultiLisa10 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      not always. rentals aren't exactly the most profitable i do accounting for several people who have a lot more rentals than this guy and they're lucky if they break even. 1000 a month for the rent, 800 a month for the mortgage leaves a 200 dollar margin. Now take the total of what this dude spent on the house and include the sweat equity it'll take a decade to pay for it all and that doesn't include future repairs that WILL Need to be done. Thus the youtube videos and the whole host of other stuff this dude has to do in order to make ends meet. Work Smarter NOT Harder.

      This house was something I bought because I wanted it, it's not an investment in the same way my other stuff is. I just want the mortgage covered. I don't mind the costs I enquire, it was bought knowing that. I pay cash for investment properties and own all my other stuff.

      The guy in the video buys houses for cheap that need a lot of work and then he does the work and raises the value. He is also a furniture maker and woodworker.
      Acquiring assets over the long term is a means to build long term wealth. It maybe 1000 a month today and in 10 years time it could be $1500 to $2500.
      Maybe he will sell it for twice the price down the line or move into and build a series of workshops for him self.

Also listening to the ambient sounds at dusk in the fall would be so nice, just getting away from all of the noisy neighbors and constant noises of a neighborhood. Having peace and quiet again for once is honestly all I want. You've done a great job these past few houses, and I wish you the best of luck on the future projects. Maybe one day I can be as handy as you are and buy and fix my own house up like this.

    Love the craftsmanship you put out.
    With that being said, I find it fascinating to learn about the finance side of things. You stated your mortgage is $856 and rent will be $1000. With property management taking 10%, you'll be left with $900 before the mortgage. Does your mortgage have the taxes included in escrow, or do you pay those separately?
    As you stated before, you bought this as it was formerly land held by your family. I can totally relate. But I think it would be helpful to your fans to explain that the income from your other properties helps offset the losses you expect to incur over the years on this purchase. Again, I can understand the logic you've used but for those who are interested in investing in real estate they need to understand the numbers behind it.
    Keep up the great work. I love your content. Keep going!!

    • @integraral
      @integraral 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@gerardj4692 I think what he was trying to get at is that until the mortgage is paid off, would figure a 15 year, he will only make about $40/month on it. What about normal maintenance on the place? He is renting, so how does he cover repairs after renters have vacated to prepare for the next renters? Things like that. I can see your side though as it does come with 14 acres that he has other plans for. So likely just wanted this place to cover itself and the land rather than trying to make a real profit from it.

    • @cochranjd
      @cochranjd 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@gerardj4692 This makes the assumption that he never has a vacant month (with $144 of cushion per month, a single vacant month would knock out 6.5 months of profit). This also assumes that nothing happens to any appliances (a/c, heater, dish washer, range, microwave, fridge, etc.). Essentially, $144/month gives him $1,728 a year to spend on this place before it loses him money for the year. I'm not an expert, so I have no real opinion on whether or not this is good or bad or doable or not. I'm just pointing out that there are a lot of things that can go wrong with a home, even just from a routine maintenance standpoint, and almost all of them will be a significant factor in making money. Or, as mentioned, 2 months of vacancy, which would mean $2,000 of lost rent, or $1,700 of unsubsidized mortgage payments.
      Obviously, as the other poster mentioned, he may have plans that make this totally doable and he clearly knows what he's doing.....
      And, if he just wanted the land, then it's not really a property he's using for income as much as one that is just subsidizing his purchase of land he already wanted anyhow (sounds like this is probably the case), in which case it's great.
