We’ll discuss whether you should focus on the deal or the neighborhood first, “clues” that point to a solid investing area, why zoning will become your wealth-building best friend, and how to identify markets with solid cash flow or appreciation.00:00 Intro02:35 Neighborhood or Deal First?06:51 “Clues” of a Great Neighborhood13:14 This is CRUCIAL19:57 The Path of Progress25:41 Stay Away from This31:44 Do This FIRST

But then…they went back up EVEN after the Fed decided to lower their Fed funds rate. Why are mortgage rates going up, and where are rates headed next?Dave is on to explain why rates shot up after the Fed made its big announcement, what’s keeping mortgage rates so high, and whether or not we’ll finally see sub-six percent mortgage rates by the end of this year.

You know you need money for a down payment, skills to manage tenants/perform renovations, and time to find the deals in the first place. But what if you only have one of these? Can you still invest in real estate even without the missing pieces? Today, we’re going to show you how to do just that, no matter how much time, money, or real estate experience you’ve got. We’re walking through three scenarios with three different investors: Dave Meyer (who had no money/experience), Devon Kennard (who had money but no time/experience), and Tyler Madden (who had skills but limited time/money). Each of these investors was able to build a successful real estate portfolio, all while either being time-stretched, money-stretched, or not knowing how to swing a hammer. They’re sharing the secrets to hiring out/building the other skills so you CAN take down real estate deals, no matter what you’re working with.If you can combine all the pieces of this “resource triangle,” you have FAR higher chances of succeeding in real estate investing and reaching financial freedom. If you’re a rookie with no real estate to your name, worry not—we’re teaching you what you need to know in today’s episode. 00:00 Intro04:54 Got Skills, But No Time/Money?11:51 Got Money, But No Time/Skills?18:24 Got Time, But No Money/Skills?20:23 Getting Your First Deal Done39:51 Building Valuable Skills37:18 Most Crucial (and Overrated) Skills

One concerning factor could be trending in the wrong direction, keeping many Americans strapped for cash.If you’re a real estate investor, this matters A LOT for you.

For many, it’s “value-add” real estate investing. You might know what this is, but you may have never heard the term before. Value-add investing is when you buy investment properties, improve them, increase the cash flow, equity, or both, and reap the rewards by holding onto them as rentals or flipping them for quick cash. Today’s investor, Tom Shallcross, is doing just this, but he’s making BIG returns (six figures on flips!) and funneling those profits into his sizable rental portfolio. And he’s doing it all in 2024.We know that everyone has told you how impossible it is to invest in real estate in 2024, but Tom instantly proves the naysayers wrong. Not only is he flipping houses, but he’s also buying rentals, BRRRRing (buy, rehab, rent, refinance, repeat), and doing it all in a competitive market—Chicago! So what’s he doing differently?Tom gets the deals before the rest of the investors in his area can, takes on BIG house flips that most investors are too scared to, and constantly reinvests the profits into more real estate. He’s been doing it since 2016 and is STILL finding success in today’s market. How’s he getting the best deals sent to him? How’s he making such large profit margins? We’re uncovering his exact strategy and method in today’s episode.

A few years ago, buyers were fighting tooth and nail to purchase properties in Austin, Boise, Phoenix, and other red-hot markets. Demand was growing in these cities, and prices were shooting up with no end in sight. But then…it stopped. Prices started declining, vacancy rose, and investors were stuck holding onto properties now worth less than what they paid. The interesting part? These market declines might be only temporary, and those who don’t buy now could be kicking themselves a few years down the road.To give us insight into which boomtowns are worth buying in and which are worth ignoring is Matt Faircloth, multifamily real estate investor. He saw many investors rush to these real estate boomtowns during the peak and are now struggling to fill their rental units as the boom became a bust. He’s identified a sneaky strategy that allows you to buy properties at a discount in these markets to make money while the FOMO investors search for an exit option.We’ll talk about the cities with the most hype, the ones worth investing in, the future boomtowns that most are ignoring, and the massive opportunity of “economic spillover” that could lead you to markets with the best future potential.00:00 Intro02:39 Real Estate "Boomtowns"06:07 How "Boomtowns" Form09:44 Cities with the Most Hype 12:11 Hyped vs. Solid Housing Markets16:33 When Is It Too Late to Get In?20:41 HUGE Opportunity for Investors 29:26 What “Boomtown” Investors Should Do35:15 Upcoming Boomtowns

The formula is so simple that you could run an accurate cash flow analysis in minutes. But, if you skip on some of the critical factors in the formula (like most people do), you could end up with a rental property that is not only NOT making any cash flow but COSTING you money every single month. So, what’s the cash flow formula?Dave literally wrote the book on real estate formulas (linked above), so today, he’s walking you through the three steps of calculating real estate cash flow. Do this before you buy any property or risk getting a bad deal.

But, with mortgage interest rates lowering right before our eyes, we’re noticing something peculiar—affordability isn’t improving. Home prices are staying stagnant, if not rising. Thanks to America’s “golden handcuffs,” we’re still in a housing market standoff, but there might be some solutions to fix it.We’re bringing on "The New York Times" real estate correspondent Rukmini Callimachi to shed light on the vast affordability crisis affecting America. With homes “unmanageably expensive,” regardless of whether you’re renting or buying, we need solutions that don’t just spark up demand (like lowering mortgage rates). There’s one glaring problem plaguing the property market, but why won’t anybody fix it?Today, we're cracking this discussion wide open, speaking on the solutions that could ACTUALLY increase affordability in the future, the rising homelessness problem affecting working Americans and students, and how NIMBYism (not in my backyard) could be forcefully put to stop as communities struggle to build enough housing. If you want to get in (or get back in) the real estate game, whether as an investor, house hacker, or first-time homebuyer, these solutions could directly affect you!00:00 Intro02:35 America’s “Golden Handcuffs” 06:52 Homebuyers Are Stuck 11:30 Affordability Solutions 23:55 Growing Homelessness26:14 Construction MUST Change 29:56 Let’s Get DENSE

It’s allowed him to become such an investing expert that he’s constantly being asked for his opinion on the BiggerPockets forums, and he provides some of the most well-thought-out investing advice on the internet. So why does he have just one rental property, and why doesn’t he grow using his expertise? The answer isn’t that obvious. You wouldn’t know it, but Mike is permanently disabled. After overworking so hard that he ended up losing his vision, he was placed on disability for the rest of his working career. This high achiever was forced to slow down and find something else that could replace his day job. Shortly after his diagnosis, he found BiggerPockets and turned a family vacation home into a short-term rental.Now, he’s got systems and processes that help him self-manage with very few headaches, and he will probably keep this property as his one and only rental for life. Why didn’t he “FOMO” in when everyone was gobbling up real estate in 2020? Why didn’t he grow his portfolio to become the next tycoon? Mike has some clear answers for why he did what he did, and after listening to him, you might change what you want, too. 00:00 Intro02:34 Losing Sight After Overworking05:24 Empty Lake House? 8:52 Managing a Vacation Rental 12:20 Know This BEFORE You Buy17:17 Just ONE Property 20:56 No-FOMO Investing26:21 A “Very Interesting” 2025

Since so many previously “cash-flowing” markets have seen rising prices, higher expenses, and limited housing inventory, we went back to the drawing board to reevaluate which markets in the United States offer the most cash flow potential. Today, we share these markets and hone in on two specific ones with real-life on-market examples to prove that cash flow is still possible.But before we get into that, we’re sharing the cash flow formula even beginners can use to quickly calculate whether a rental property will cash flow. Then, we describe what type of cash-on-cash return WE target in today’s market and list some of the most cash-flowing markets of 2024.Want to see real cash-flowing rental property examples? We’re hopping over to BiggerPockets Deal Finder as we quickly analyze two separate rental properties in two cash-flowing markets to prove that these properties do sport some serious cash flow.

We know many of you are in this position, so today, we’re sharing what we’re investing in that ISN’T real estate.This may be a surprise, but even some of the most well-known investors in the BiggerPockets universe aren’t 100% in real estate.

But this large rate cut was by no means an accident on the Fed’s part—instead, it may have been a way to help them course-correct after going without a rate cut for four years. Now, with rates lower, what happens to the housing market? Will mortgage rates fall because of the news? Will home prices rise because of higher affordability for buyers? What happens next? Will the Fed be able to dodge a recession and nail the “soft landing” with this latest rate cut? We’re talking about it today—plus sharing where the Fed thinks rates will be headed over the next couple of years and how low mortgage rates could fall by the end of 2024.

What used to be someone setting up a tent and potentially a portable toilet for guests looking to get into nature has now become a full-blown luxury business that travelers will pay good money to get a taste of. One large glamping property allowed today’s investor, Garrett Brown, to replace his music producer job and reach levels of success most short-term rental investors can only dream of. Garrett owns a ten-acre piece of land in a lake town outside Houston, Texas. Even though many non-Texans won’t be familiar with the area, local travelers flock to it to escape the big city. Since buying the property, Garrett has made some serious expansions, such as building cabins (and even geo-domes) with WiFi, running water, and the creature comforts many of us don’t want to live without. Plus, Garrett is doing it all while getting most of his bookings directly from social media. That’s right, he has (mostly) cut out Airbnb and other middlemen booking platforms, so he keeps much more of the profit and even gets his guests to upgrade with “add-on packages” that make the deal even sweeter. You can do it, too, but you’ll need to hear how Garrett does it in this episode! 00:00 Intro01:49 Music Producer to…Real Estate? 08:50 His First House Flip 11:50 Switching to Short-Term Rentals18:11 Buying 10 Acres and Building Cabins23:57 Can Anyone Do This?30:21 Getting Guests Through Social Media 34:33 Start Small! 36:31 Learn from Garrett!

With so much multifamily housing supply and the Fed’s recent rate cut decision, we’ve got a lot to unpack on this BiggerNews episode. Thankfully, we have Apartment List’s Chief Economist, Igor Popov, to help us.We’re talking about rent prices: where they are, where they’re going, and what’s impacting them in 2024 (and into 2025). Unsurprisingly, we’ve got a lot of multifamily supply—apartments are giving huge concessions to lease up. But what if we told you we were oversupplied AND undersupplied at the same time, and in a few years' time, demand could heat up again?Igor gives a rare 2025 rental market forecast, his take on what’s impacting rent growth, and whether the “oversupply” of multifamily is hurting single-family rental investors’ chances to get higher rents. 00:00 Intro03:55 Anything But “Normal” Rent Prices08:54 Money is in Suburbs 12:59 More Renter Control 17:00 Multifamily vs. Single-Family Rents 18:09 Lots of Supply, Not Enough Supply23:08 2025 Rent Prediction 25:52 Learn More from Igor!

We know—everyone has told you to go to the bigger, growing cities where you can chase appreciation, but today’s guest might change your mind. He was able to scale to over twenty rental properties in just a few years, all by buying in his rural Ohio town that you’ve probably never heard of. Even better? He bought the rentals with none of his own money, AND he was cash-flowing THOUSANDS per month. So how do you do it, too?Josh Bauerle tried to invest in real estate back in 2006. What was supposed to be a “quick flip” turned into a thirteen-year investment, which (thankfully) made a bit of money by the end.

And then, at some point, you realize you own rentals and are making money but have zero time. Now, you’re burnt out, wondering where that “financial freedom” went and how you can get back to it. But you’ve got an entire business riding on your back. You can’t stop, so what do you do? Don’t worry—we have the secret. Kathy and Rich Fettke felt like this a decade ago. Kathy was so stressed that she had zero interest in growing her business any bigger than it was. It was already taking so much out of her, and the stress was only rising. She turned to her husband, Rich, to help coach her into a better position to scale the business instead of blindly growing it. Now, in 2024, Kathy and Rich have amassed a sizable real estate portfolio, run an investor-centered business, and are doing more in less time with less stress.If you want what Kathy and Rich have, stick around and pick up their new book, “Scaling Smart,” where they teach you how to scale your business the right way, outsource to free up time, and STOP chasing “more” when it’s coming at the cost of your family or time freedom.

If so, creative finance might be precisely what you need. It’s what today’s guest, Ankit Lodha, used to go from zero rental properties to THIRTY in just a couple of years. Sounds risky? What if we told you Ankit was walking into equity when he bought these deals, keeping him from being overleveraged and helping him build wealth faster? After saving up for over a decade to buy his first property, Ankit quickly realized that building wealth would be a slow grind if he didn’t solve his down payment problem. He was working hard as a data scientist by day, looking for real estate deals by night, and needed a solution to help him creatively buy real estate WITHOUT putting twenty-five percent down on every property. After finding a sweet spot in his local housing market, where he made substantially more rent than other landlords, he knew he needed more properties.Today, Ankit talks about how he scaled from zero to thirty properties using creative financing, seller financing, and traditional mortgages. He’ll talk about how he dodged the high mortgage rates most investors were forced to accept, how he built a team and runs his properties remotely, and the ingenious ways he buys houses for very little down with high cash flow. 00:00 Intro01:47 Data by Day, Deals at Night 05:51 Moving and Remote Management 11:07 Making 2x His Mortgage 17:15 Building the Team20:38 Creative Solutions with HUGE Returns29:16 Low Money Down Strategies 30:11 Next-Level Seller Financing 34:25 Creative Finance Risks 37:41 Long-Term Vision

Well, that depends. If you want a lower price for a property in a better condition, with a lower mortgage rate and the ability to charge more rent, then new construction homes are what you need. This “sleeper” investment is now cheaper to buy than a regular rental property, but since it’s a new build, it comes with a fraction of the headaches and repairs than most “used” homes. So if they’re cheaper, better, and make you more money, why isn’t everyone buying a new home?Kathy Fettke has been investing in new construction homes for decades. At first, it was just a way for her to have a more passive real estate portfolio. But now, she knows she can make much more with new homes than buying existing rentals. Since so much of her portfolio is new builds, we brought her to the show to share why this investment may be the best on the market.We’ll get into new construction pricing and why new homes are CHEAPER than existing homes but offer better amenities, safer structures, and often much lower insurance prices. Next, how to get a rock-bottom mortgage rate by negotiating with builders (we’re talking three or four percent interest rates!). Plus, Kathy shares precisely how to ensure you’re buying a new home in the path of progress so you can rake in appreciation.00:00 Intro02:03 Buying New Homes at a Distance 06:42 The “Path of Progress” 11:11 New Homes vs. Build-to-Rent 19:25 Get a Lower Mortgage Rate24:14 Where (Not) to Buy30:10 Forecasting Appreciation

Like any type of investing, real estate can be risky. However, the amount of risk you take changes depending on the deal. Today, we’re helping YOU figure out how much risk YOU should be taking based on your goals and then share some expert risk management tactics so you can be prepared even if a “black swan” event throws your entire real estate investing plan out the window. Ashley Wilson started investing in real estate at a risky time. It was 2009—nobody knew if the housing market would face another significant downturn and crash again. Thankfully, due to determination (and a bit of helpful ignorance), she invested at a time that turned out to be one of the best in history. Now, running massive multifamily real estate deals, Ashley has not only survived but thrived through high interest rates, a pandemic, falling rents, and economic uncertainty.What does she do differently than most investors? She faces her real estate risks BEFORE they happen, and today, she’s showing you how to do the same. We’re talking with Ashley about risk management, how much risk you should take based on your goals, the “buckets” of risk and what you CAN control, and what to do NOW to limit your risk of loss. 00:00 Intro03:38 3 Types of Investor "Risk"07:22 Investing During "Risky" Times11:18 The "Buckets" of Risk14:46 Dodging "Black Swan" Events18:52 Risk Mitigation Tactics to Use NOW23:53 The Risk of Loss

Pairing this with recent fears of a recession on the horizon, could rent price growth suffer even more if economic turbulence hits, or would a recession push more people towards the affordable option of renting vs. buying a home? Dave is back to give his rent forecast.After years of affordability struggles, renters are finally getting a break as rent growth stalls and leasing concessions increase. In some markets, mostly where multifamily has seen HUGE supply jumps, rent growth is going negative. If you’re a landlord and you’re in one of these heavily-supplied markets, what do you do, and what should you expect over the next year?

So today, we’re talking to an investor, sharing the ins and outs of this lucrative strategy, and showing you how she scaled from zero to over fifty units, half of which are thanks to this strategy.Maura McGraw and her husband quickly realized that being active-duty military members wouldn’t lead to the stable family life they dreamed of. They needed a way out while still making enough money to provide. So, they pivoted and began formally studying real estate. After a first deal left them with a $30,000 loss, Maura did what most wouldn’t and got back out there searching for another deal. After dozens of flips and numerous rentals, she stumbled upon rent-to-own investing—a strategy that would fuel her real estate portfolio’s growth.Imagine getting monthly rent checks without repair and maintenance expenses or insurance costs. That’s what rent-to-own can provide! We’ll talk about analyzing a market, screening tenants/buyers, profit margins, and how YOU can start investing in rent-to-own real estate in your market!

Buying a house seems impossibly far away for first-time homebuyers, rent prices are still far past pre-pandemic levels, and mortgage payments are through the roof. This can’t last forever, and some new government policies are trying to ensure it doesn’t. In this week’s BiggerNews, we’re talking to Dennis Shea, Executive Director at the J. Ronald Terwilliger Center for Housing Policy at the Bipartisan Policy Center, about what policies could benefit the country and whether or not they’ll actually pass.We’re also getting into Vice President Harris’ housing plan and former President Trump’s housing plan to see what each candidate believes could bring more affordable housing to the market. With President Biden’s recent rent control proposal, many real estate investors are worried their rents could be capped. But will this nationwide rent control proposal go through? Plus, what effect does affordability have on current homeowners and investors? Low supply means more demand and higher home prices, but could it come at the cost of your local economy, as renters and would-be homebuyers struggle to afford a home?

Then, this episode might surprise you. While most real estate educators online are constantly stressing how you must leave your W2 so you can become a full-time real estate investor, today, we’re going to do the opposite, proving why most real estate investors SHOULD keep their job and let real estate supplement their dreams, instead of becoming their dream.Take it from Lawrence Briggs. He’s an avid BiggerPockets listener who moved to a different city just to invest in real estate. With such passion and drive, you’d think he wants to become a full-time landlord. But the truth is…he doesn’t. His passions go far beyond managing tenants and fixing toilets, so he uses real estate to amplify his lifestyle and protect his finances so that he never HAS to get a job but can choose the exact job he wants to work.Today, we’re talking to Lawrence about balancing your W2 job with real estate investing, why you DON’T need to quit to reach (even a small amount of) financial independence, the side hustle he used to save up for his first rentals, and how he works just a few hours a week managing his real estate portfolio. This is the realistic way to build wealth through real estate, and if Lawrence can go from poverty to multi-unit landlord, you can invest, too!00:00 Intro01:31 BPCon2024 Giveaway! 02:55 Switching Jobs to Invest 11:24 Food Delivery Side Hustle 16:31 I DON'T Want to Quit 18:52 Breaking Generational Poverty 21:34 Dream Job for Investors 26:37 Time Spent Managing His Rentals 31:12 You Don't NEED to Quit33:55 The Dish

Neither did Brandon Tilson. As a social worker, he was never on the higher end of the income scale, but thanks to some serious side hustles, he now has eight rental units in just two years! How did he do it while working full-time and having a family to feed? Today, we’re talking to Brandon about why ANYONE can invest in real estate, no matter your experience, salary, or cash in the bank.Brandon doesn’t have just one side hustle, or two, or three—he has five separate side hustles, leaving him with six jobs to take care of. It’s no surprise that Brandon works anywhere from sixty to eight hours a week, but it’s all been worth it for him, especially after seeing his real estate holdings go from zero to eight rental units in an extremely short period of time. Now, he’s less than ten years away from financial freedom, allowing him to retire early if he wishes to at just forty-five years old!Brandon gives crucial advice for anyone trying to invest in today’s market, even with higher interest rates. We talk about different side hustles that bring in extra income, how he funded his first deal, what to do when your renovation becomes a “trainwreck,” and whether or not getting your real estate license is worth it. Plus, why investing alone is much harder than doing it with a partner (or spouse!).00:00 Intro01:31 Investing While Working 6 Jobs!07:24 First “Trainwreck” Deal16:17 Second “Turnkey” Property 19:33 Becoming an Agent? 23:13 His Financial Freedom Number26:08 Investing On a Low Income29:13 Early Retirement at 45!32:06 Advice for New Investors
