It can be very daunting for people to start investing. Real estate investing is misunderstood, and people tend to overcomplicate the process. That's not to say that it's easy... because it's not.

We did it... we closed a deal in today's wacky market. And it was NOT easy. In this episode, we're going to breakdown the timeline of our most recent deal that we closed on just a few weeks ago.

We're not going to sugar coat it. It's tough out there. So, if you're in the middle of a deal right now, or you're p...
Interest rates are on the rise... so it's the perfect time to refinance... right? Well, it actually is! There are so many factors that need to be measured before refinancing, and interest rates are only part of it. The most important thing we're trying to accomplish with a cash-out refinance is to extract some of the newly created equity from our forced appreciation business plan that we've executed. So how do we do that? And why is NOW the right time, with interest rates on the rise?...

As General Partners, it's pretty rare for us to get questions that we haven't heard before. And there are definitely questions that you, an investor, need to be asking your GP. Because there are things that your GP may not be telling you. This isn't to say that they are withholding information... only that there are important answers to some difficult questions. For example... what happens when you die? No... not if there's an afterlife or anything like that. But seriously, what...
First impressions are important when you're in real estate. So you have to make them count. You might think that your watch or car could give a certain impression, but really... it's much more than that. Wearing luxury brands doesn't necessarily make someone more impressive or serious. And owning an expensive car doesn't necessarily mean you are more successful or influential. It's about the impression you make with the people you meet and with whom you do business....
The most important thing you need to remember about investing... or just making money in general... is that it's not about what you make, it's about what you keep. And with that in mind, here are the most expensive mistakes you can make when investing in real estate. 1) Investing in the wrong people. This could be your partner, your employee(s), your property management team, your operators, etc. 2) Cutting corners. There are a lot of ways, tempting ways, to cut corners a...

One of the most popular ways for people to get into real estate investing is the fix and flip method. AKA BRRRR... Buy, Rehab, Rent, Refinance, and Repeat. You go and purchase a single family home, fix'er up, rent it out to a tenant, refinance, and then you do it all over again. Now let's take that method and apply it to apartment buildings. Tweetable Quotes: “I think that some people try to take kind of a binary approach thing where they're either passive or active. It's like...
Is the short-term rental market crashing? No. Will it crash? Nah... probably not. "Crash" is a pretty harsh word. But, it might be heading that way. The short-term rental market is suffocating itself. Yes, it's booming right now. But like any new market, it eventually balances out. So, what does the future of the short-term rental market look like? We will probably see the market's growth slow over the next few years. It all depends on how fast the government moves towards regulat...
Return projections can be a fickle thing. There is a lot that goes into them... data, figures, numbers... and they're almost always wrong. However, here are the 3 things that you NEED to know about return projections. Returns almost never...scratch that... returns NEVER meet expectations. A proforma is, at it's most basic level, just a guess into the future. Even the most finely tuned budget in the world is... really just a best guess. But knowing these 3 things can help you ma...
