      I bought a 24 unit apartment complex and it was owner financed. No bank needed. I made my money on the purchase in other words it was worth much more than the value of my contracted price to purchase. I had the cash to close deal but if i did not have the cash I would have flipped to someone else or possibly taken a partner. I have bought many properties this way. I would advise don't assume anything until you actually have many deals under your belt.

    • @MrHav1k
      @MrHav1k Před 6 lety +8

      @Will, good question to ask, especially in this market. People don't sell performing assets, so there's a good chance either you're paying too much for the property and thus taking on too much risk, OR there's something wrong with the property. On the residential side, you get the best deals from distressed sellers since they NEED to sell and will do so at a discount. Magically though, this logic seems to fly out the window when buying commercial properties lmao. If someone is selling you a commercial building and it's not under duress , or to POSSIBLY 1031 into another property, be very skeptical. Why sell a performing asset like a multi-unit apartment building? The people buying real estate at these inflated valuations because they listened to some guru hustler who makes more money selling programs than investing in real estate, will lose their ass once the next recession hits, interest rates go up, and unemployment skyrockets.

  • @BrianHw1

    It's a viable plan, definitely. I've been in real estate since 2012 and have mostly been wholesaling. Looking back, I wish I'd picked up a few more rentals along the way. I've only got a few right now. But I've got a 5 year plan to retire: I'll wholesale 1-2 houses a month to pay my bills, do 5 flips a year and put that money into 5 rentals/year. At the end of 5 years, I'll have 25 properties with about 9 of them paid off. Cash flow will be about $110k/year at that point and will go up as I get additional houses paid off and rents increase.

    • @danf4447
      @danf4447 Před rokem

      wholesaling means finding someone who will sell to you at BELOW market rates when they can usually sell their house within hours or days with a sign in the yard- and at the SAME TIME finding a willing qualified buyer who will also buy RIGHT NOW. the odds of that happening is why every professional real estate investor i know laughs like crazy when you talk about the MYTH of wholesaling. it doesnt exist. if it did- you would be way better to have 2-4 financial partners- show them the house pencils out..buy it clean it fix it..then use that spread to take time and find a good buyer. which is what they all mostly do.!!

    I agree with the math and finding houses that net cash flow isn’t too difficult but...
    The problem is with such a thin net cash flow ($100-200 month) you are in dire risk of faulting with a moderate downturn in housing
    When housing markets fall the owners and banks will flood the market with rentals therefore lowering rental prices
    That + $200 a month on 30 units could turn into -100 on 30 units and you’re stuck
    These types of plans can work but they are also very much the ones susceptible to bankruptcy
    I’m not saying don’t chase your goals I’m suggesting for as many rosy stories you hear of there are 3-5 that fail miserably

    For all you new real estate buyers out there. I would say start small. Maybe give out room on rent in the house you currently living in. Start by saving more money on down payment. Then think of buying town homes or semi detached units. It's very hard to find a mortage for a second home unless you have a really good job and I mean job that pays 100k + a year.. and permanent.

      Retire Re tire make tired again. The purpose is to achieve a goal and start a new one not to do nothing. I did nothing for quite a while and trust me , it is annoyingly boring and depressing. Not a good goal. Find what others need that you enjoy doing or find fascinating. Your calling. Then do that even if people say you can't or shouldnt. And never quit, transition maybe, but don't quit. Do it especially for the possible heavenly rewards, but it works better for here too far more than doing nothing does. Plus, the means to do nothing easily causes a lack of structure which is very dangerous for a human's psychological state of mind.

    Depending where you are, you don't even need 30 units. 5 multifamily houses can suffice. I live in New Orleans. NO has A TON of multifamily doubles. its the main type of apartment that you'll find in NO as there aren't many complexes. Rent in NOLA for a 1 bedroom is like 900-1200. Assuming, you rented one side out, you can theoretically pay the mortgage, p&I, and taxes, and pretty much every other expense with one side of the property. The other side is total profit. So we're talking 800-1200 in profit for ONE property. ALOT of these houses are priced between 120k to 300k. My dad bought one a while ago. A lot of my friends down here also own some. My dad was making 900 off of one property. Just a bit of food for thought.

The rent is enough to pay the monthly loan plus give him some cash. You have to actually think about what he saying

      @Aidan Zephan Akakino 'o ka Lani Tsukiyama The place you are looking are on the other side of the mountains. Yes, there is cheap land in Washington, but where that cheap land is there is also a lack of employment opportunities. You're most likely looking at Walla Walla, Yakima, Spokane, Preston, or many other small cities. The population tends to be older people or groups of immigrants or own a house near the farm they work at (that's really the only employment opportunity). The market for renting out there is next to nothing, if you want to make any passive income off of real estate in WA, you'd be hard-pressed to find anything that cheap on the side of the mountains with cities and employers. Also, I have 1.2k in Robinhood, I know how to invest and I enjoy investing. Not everything is as easy for everyone in different parts of the country.

I'm going to work my ass off so that by the time I'm in my thirties the dream I have now is much more obtainable; nonetheless, money is a requirement if you want to make money work for you. Trading single share stocks is a bad idea unless you plan on investing long term and know the company has a future, but even then ETFs and bonds are safer even if their ROI is lower. The employment opportunities aren't for me, theoretically I could live out there but I have a workaholic personality and desire a job to keep me busy for most of my day. If I want a job, I need a place on this side of the mountains. No bank will give you a loan for a downpayment over in those cities i mentioned because no one wants to rent out there, there's no market, that's why the land is so cheap, and where there is a market, the land is expensive. I get what you're saying, and I'll get there, but for most people this is not an immediate thing. 1k in the stock market is jack shit if I'm expecting a solid return within even a decade. People need to make money before they can make money make money for them.

    So I'm married with 2 kids and one on the way. I have a full time job as a fire fighter/ paramedic and a part time job. I do this so we're not struggling, even though we could manage on just my full time. My problem is I cant really take much RISK in my current situation. If it was just me, I'd take lots of risks. Worst case, I end up living with my parents. But i have a family to support. It seems these videos are awesome if you're willing to take a risk, but I cannot put my family on the street if I fail as a real estate investor.

    Some of you have missed the point of this video. Although it would help if the title mentioned that this is best used for commercial real estate (5+ units buildings). Whilst $150 is small for a house, on a 5-unit building that would be $750/month cash flow. Also once you start it will be progressively easier to do more deals and do bigger deals. You just need to expand beyond single family thinking and go for the commercial stuff.
    I do disagree that $54,000/year is enough to "retire" on. For most major cities you would still need another job with that kind of income. Just a matter of scaling up again.

      Actually, it sounds like YOU missed the point of this video. He specifically says that 4500/month was a roundabout figure to cover all of your basic needs/bills but ultimately you have to decide what the target number is. And to be honest, in most areas of America, entire household incomes average at or below 54K already. Secondly, commercial real estate (5+ unit properties) requires a different type of loan, hence buying 4 or less is a lot easier to do for most people.

    • @r2solutions635
      @r2solutions635 Před 6 lety +3

      David Patrickson I avoid commercial and actually have a duplex and triplex. I believe that’s what he suggested for year 1 to get 5 units. I will either purchase a quadplex or a house this year which will secure my retirement. My return is several hundred per unit after mortgage and all expenses are paid. This reduces my overall monthly expenses which means I need far fewer units. Another consideration is how you live. My properties are in DC where the cost of living is steadily increasing, however I tend to live modest and prefer some level of minimalism. I also work full time which will help me pay the mortgage much sooner.

    • @mattr7118
      @mattr7118 Před 6 lety +1

      David Patrickson if you made 54k a year from real estate your taxable income would be much less. There's easy ways to write stuff off on your taxes in real estate. So you wouldn't be getting taxed much. And 54k a year? I mean dude that's the average income for 2 people working in 1 house. If you had that from 1 person you'd be doing alright. Rich? No. But anyone can live off of that.

    These investment properties require a 20 to 25% down payment. Let's say you're in it for 50k a unit and @ 30 units you'll need $300,000 too $375,000 for down payments each year. Not to mention if you earn $50,000 a year with no debt and you buy 2 fourplexs at 180k each in the first year, that's 72 to 90k down payment and maybe $1,800 to $2,000 a month getting close to 42% debt to income ratio. If a bank allowed you to leverage more debt based on the first years income I still don't see how you could do it.

      I borrowed money to invest, you are asking for an amount of money go and buy an iPhone and an xbox, that is not the correct way to live because you will never become financially successful. If you are talking about investing with that money you could not do property investment, you could do an online business or buy a load of lego and sell it on for 4 times the amount when it is not on sale but that would be a very low payed job that could almost never be full time. For property investment you could do nothing with twenty thousand pounds, it is useless.

    • @codywild9433
      @codywild9433 Před 6 lety

      First of all anyone can use Lego, it is for all ages, I play with it a lot. I see what you are saying about me having a fortunate background and I agree that it made the bank more comfortable about lending the money, but it is mainly what property you have found and how you could pay back the money, for example the block of flats I found were 0.3miles from the nearest train station and 0.8 miles from the nearest University so it was very good for student accommodation and because of that the bank lent the money without hesitating.
      I was not just taking money, buying a property and seating back letting the money pour in, I was paying taxes for 107 2 bed apartments and paying the money to the bank, while working for my dad in his roofing company in New Zealand. Like the guy says on this video "it does not matter how much money you have but how much you want it".

      He could simply hire a management company and be hands off. However, He could actualy make more with less. In my market 10 doors is around 15,000/month vs his 30 doors for 4500. Much easier to manage 10 doors than 30 doors while making over triple the profits. You have to find a certain markets to accomplish that. Now I'm sure the question will be were in the world can 10 doors garner 15,000/month and who has millions to purchase that.
      The answer is 10 cheap Houses..... over time, not instantly. Not apartment doors. The next question is who can buy or pay off 10 houses cash. Answer = Buy extremely cheap and dedicate 10-15ys to pay them all off using the snow ball effect from all the combined rents to work to accomplish the feat. A six-figure income will help. I'm not there yet , but very close. Should be finished completely within 4yrs.

      Hector Serna your tenants are who you allow to occupy your properties. Owning rentals is a lot of who you let into them. You have control on who rents from you and who doesn't. It sounds like to me you have a low set of standards to who is allowed to rent from you. I look at it this way. If you let your properties get run down or consistently let tenants get away with not paying rent than maybe you might want to look into a different line of work. I believe its about treating your tenants like human beings and not just an income stream. Treat your tenants like you would like to be treated fix issues quickly and don't blow off their issues. I honestly believe if you did a better screening process in the beginning and are quick to respond to a maintenance, or rule violation or regulation issue I believe that many of the issues you talk about would go away. I suggest maybe a self evaluation of how you go about your rental operation and see if some of your issues stem from something your doing instead of always trying to blame the tenant. Yes of course there are going to be bad tenants but I believe in if you follow a way of treating them as you would like to be treated I think you could lower the issues you have. May you have many blessing in your future enterprises. GOD BLESS
