  • 950: The Easiest Way to Invest in Real Estate in 2024 w/Terrence Terrell

    950: The Easiest Way to Invest in Real Estate in 2024 w/Terrence Terrell
    May 8 2024
    There’s one way to invest in real estate that’s cheaper, easier, and more efficient than almost any other strategy. It allows you to get the best mortgage rates with the lowest down payments and buy properties in the best areas. And you can do it every single year until you grow a massive real estate portfolio. Real estate millionaires have been made using this strategy, but most Americans have no idea about it. What’s the wealth-building secret that savvy investors are taking advantage of? Of course, it’s house hacking. If you’ve never heard of house hacking before, the concept is simple: You buy a single-family home or a small multifamily property and rent out the space you’re not using. This not only allows you access to the best mortgages but also keeps your mortgage cost lower than living on your own. This strategy is so good that expert investor Dave Meyer and today’s lender guest, Terrence Terrell, have used it repeatedly to build serious wealth. If you’re a first-time homebuyer or have a home but want to get into rental property investing, this is THE strategy to try first. Terrence gives a beginner-friendly masterclass on house hacking, showcasing the huge benefits of house hacking’s low-money-down loans, what you need to have to qualify for a mortgage, the common misconceptions most people get wrong about house hacking, and how to use this strategy to build wealth fast. In This Episode We Cover House hacking explained and why it’s the easiest beginner real estate investing strategy How to buy your first investment property with as little as ONE percent down Qualifying for a mortgage and what first-time homebuyers must know before they apply The free way to find out whether or not you’ll be able to get financing for your house hack The easy, low-money-down way to build a real estate portfolio by house hacking And So Much More! (00:00) Intro (01:26) What is House Hacking? (03:15) Put Just 1% Down! (07:50) Who Should House Hack? (09:04) It's Not as Hard As You Think (11:31) What Homebuyers Need to Know (14:27) Qualifying for a Mortgage (17:58) Advice for First-Time House Hackers Check out more resources from this show on BiggerPockets.com and https://www.biggerpockets.com/blog/real-estate-950 Interested in learning more about today’s sponsors or becoming a BiggerPockets partner yourself?

    949: Seeing Greene: Is Losing $800/Month in Cash Flow Worth $200K+ Equity?
    May 7 2024
    Would you buy a rental property that loses money every month? What if, in a few years, that one property could make you hundreds of thousands of dollars? Would the negative cash flow be worth the massive appreciation upside? Today, we’re answering that exact question from an investor who could be sitting on a wealth-building opportunity but doesn’t know what decision to make. Should he buy the "bleeding" property at a steep discount or give up this needle in the housing market haystack to avoid a cash flow trap? Let’s find out! We’re back on Seeing Greene as David and Rob, your go-to real estate investing experts, answer questions directly from BiggerPockets Real Estate listeners like you! First, an investor has a rare opportunity to buy “Grandma’s house” with over $200K+ in potential equity upside. The problem? It will LOSE $800/month! Next, a new property manager wants to know how to raise rents on a twenty-year tenant. Do you pay capital gains on the profit of your home sale or the entire amount? We’ll show you how to know how much you owe. Then, an investor debates selling his C-class cash-flowing properties in exchange for appreciating assets, and we explain the “sneaky rental” tactic that’ll take you to ten rental properties in no time! Want to ask David a question? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene. Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can jump on a live Q&A and get your question answered on the spot! In This Episode We Cover Negative cash flow and one of the ONLY times it makes sense to buy a “bleeding” rental How to raise rents (the right way) on a long-term tenant Capital gains tax explained and how much YOU could owe on your next home sale Whether to trade cash flow for appreciation and selling your rentals that don’t have room to grow The “sneaky” rental tactic that allows you to scale a real estate portfolio FAST And So Much More!

  • 948: 10 Rentals in 5 Years by Buying in Overlooked Short-Term Rental Markets w/Jarrod Tucker and Yiwei Cheng

    948: 10 Rentals in 5 Years by Buying in Overlooked Short-Term Rental Markets w/Jarrod Tucker and Yiwei Cheng
    May 6 2024
    When you think about short-term rental and Airbnb markets, what comes to mind? Joshua Tree, the Smoky Mountains, maybe Destin? We all know about the famous short-term rental markets, but what about the not-so-famous ones? You know, the unsexy markets where you book an Airbnb for a conference or when you’re going to see extended family? That’s right; we’re talking about everyday American markets like Cincinnati, Ohio. But surprisingly, these markets make some of the best investments for short-term rental investors like Jarrod Tucker and Yiwei Cheng. Jarrod and Yiwei moved to Cincinnati for work shortly after catching the real estate investing bug. They knew they wanted to invest in real estate, but long-term rentals only came with measly cash flow that would never support their passive income goals. So, what’s the next best option? Short-term rentals! Unfortunately, Cincinnati isn’t known as a popular vacation getaway, but it didn’t have to be to support Jarrod and Yiwei’s cash flow dreams! Now, five years after the start of their investing journey, they have ten rentals of their own and manage a couple dozen more for other investors. The question is, how do you make money with short-term rentals in an unsexy market? Jarrod and Yiwei walk through their tips for finding the right properties, keeping occupancy rates high, buying real estate when your DTI (debt-to-income) gets maxed out, and why you MUST separate yourself from the basic short-term rentals to reach your financial goals. In This Episode We Cover The three types of short-term rental guests who consistently come to markets like Cincinnati How to set your Airbnb apart if you’re in a saturated short-term rental market Tips for higher occupancy and what you MUST have to get more bookings Scaling your real estate portfolio when you have high DTI (debt-to-income) Using partnerships to buy even more properties when you’re low on cash Why you DON’T need to invest in high-priced, popular vacation destinations And So Much More! (00:00) Intro (01:36) The Accidental Airbnb Host (08:07) Short-Term Rentals in…Cincinnati? (13:37) Are Short-Term Rentals Saturated? (19:46) Tips for Higher Occupancy (22:31) Scaling with High DTI (Debt-to-Income) (32:24) Advice for New Investors Check out more resources from this show on BiggerPockets.com and https://www.biggerpockets.com/blog/real-estate-948 Interested in learning more about today’s sponsors or becoming a BiggerPockets partner yourself?

So much value!

I owe a lot to this podcast. I’ve been listening for years and I’ve applied countless things I’ve heard to my life and business.

The mindset that BiggerPockets has given me has brought so much value to my life, even beyond real estate.

Thank you, Josh, Brandon, David, and the rest of the BP team!

very valuable information.

This is a great podcast. Many people don't know about self directed IRA or solo 401k. I opened one this year, I like that I'm in control of my money and I can invest where I want it.
