    945: Seeing Greene: Stolen Properties and Why Your Rate Doesn't (Really) Matter
    Apr 30 2024
    There’s a silent threat out there that most real estate investors have no idea about. It’s a threat that could take away all your cash flow, ruin your real estate portfolio, and put you right back to square one after years of work. And even the most seasoned investors aren’t immune to this threat—our own David Greene almost got caught in this trap and had to act quickly to escape. What’s the danger we’re discussing, and how do you ensure YOU don’t lose everything? We’re about to tell you! We’re back on another Seeing Greene as David and Rob take your real estate investing questions and give up-to-date advice on what they’d do in your situation. First, a real estate investor sees his cash flow disappear due to rising operating expenses—should he sell the property or keep a low/no cash-flowing deal? Then, we talk about the silent threat targeting real estate investors—title fraud. An investor wants to know if a low mortgage rate on a subject to deal warrants a higher price, and Rob and David debate whether investing in expensive markets is worth the cost. 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: Title fraud explained and how silent thieves can steal your real estate portfolio without you even knowing it Whether to keep, sell, or 1031 exchange a rental property that won’t cash flow The real value of a low interest rate and why many investors get this wrong Warning signs that your properties are being stolen out from under you Investing in expensive markets and why we would/wouldn’t invest in states like Hawaii And So Much More!

  • 944: 3 Ways We Find Real Estate Deals Even During the Harshest Housing Markets

    944: 3 Ways We Find Real Estate Deals Even During the Harshest Housing Markets
    Apr 29 2024
    It seems like everyone is wondering how to find real estate deals in today’s supply-constrained market. With housing inventory still hovering around historical lows, finding a cash-flowing, appreciating rental property isn’t as easy as before. But maybe that’s just because most people don’t know where to look for these properties. In reality, there are steals and deals all around us, and if our hosts can take down home-run real estate deals in this housing market, what’s stopping you from doing it, too? So today, David Greene and Dave Meyer are giving you three ways to find your next real estate deal using both on AND off-market investing tactics. The majority of Americans ignore these tactics, and only serious or savvy investors will follow through on them. Once you know where to find these deals, the deal flow doesn’t stop. If you can master any of these three tactics, you’ll have a source of profitable investment properties streaming to you for years to come. First, we’ll show you how to find off-market deals and a few strategies you can use to locate and engage with motivated sellers. Next, we’re sharing the exact networking play to get real estate deals sent straight to you. And if you think on-market (MLS) deals are dead, you couldn’t be more wrong. David shares how he picked up an on-market luxury vacation rental for a surprisingly low price, all because he knew where to look! Looking for cash-flowing short and medium-term rental properties in the best investing markets in America? Visit Rent to Retirement or text “REI” to 33777! In This Episode We Cover: The three “buckets” for finding your first or next real estate deal in 2024 “Off-market real estate” explained and why most people get it wrong How Dave was able to find off-market deals just by…riding his bike? The people you MUST connect with if you want real estate deals sent to you consistently The overlooked on-market properties that ANY investor can find with huge price-cut potential And So Much More!

    943: BiggerNews: Can’t Qualify for Another Mortgage? Try THESE Investor Loans w/Jeff Welgan
    Apr 26 2024
    Want to scale your real estate portfolio faster? These investment property loans can help. Most real estate investors get stuck early on in their journey. They buy some properties and build up some comfortable cash flow, but then…they can’t qualify for another loan. They’ve either reached the maximum limit on conventional mortgages OR don’t have enough income to qualify for bigger and better investments. So what do they do? Give up? Settle with a small rental portfolio? No, they use THESE investment property loans instead. Jeff Welgan, our investor-friendly lender expert, is back to show us what we’ve been missing. From DSCR (debt service coverage ratio) loans that help you scale to more doors, to no-income-necessary investor loans that don’t look at your income, to business bank statement loans that’ll let you buy homes based on your business’s cash flow, these mortgages can help anyone in any position, purchase real estate faster. If your DTI (debt-to-income) ratio is too high and you’re struggling to qualify for another mortgage, this is THE episode for you. We’ll discuss using your property’s rent to qualify for more, loans that get around DTI requirements, using your business to fund your deals, and the mortgages you should look into FIRST before you move on to more complex loan products. Stick around if you’re ready to scale faster! Thank you to our sponsor, Rent App: the free and easy way to collect rent. In This Episode We Cover Why you cannot overlook rehabbing older homes and outdated properties The two things that tell Lisa an older home ISN’T worth investing in Why termites, foundation problems, and outdated electrical systems aren’t as bad as you think The huge mistake Lisa made that ruined a $100K+ rehab project and how to avoid the same fate Tenant retention 101 and best ways to ensure your vacancy rate is low and your cash flow is high DealMachine’s five ways to find motivated sellers in any market And So Much More!

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.
