Multifamily Investing Made Simple

How would you define wealth? Do you often look at people like Elon Musk and Bill Gates, and think... "I'll never be as wealthy as them?". Well, that's setting quite a high bar... why compare yourself and your wealth to somebody like that? Why compare yourself to anybody at all when defining your wealth? Wealth should be defined by the gap between your expenses and your income. The bigger the gap, the more comfortable someone lives. So...how big do you want that gap? All of this and more on this week's episode of Multifamily Investing Made Simple.Tweetable Quotes:"Wealth is a ratio between what you make and what you spend." – Anthony Vicino"High income does not equate to wealth." – Dan Krueger LEAVE A REVIEW if you liked this episode!!

If you're just starting to invest in real estate, you're probably going to start with something small, right? Unless you're Grant Cardone...  Starting small is a great way to dip your toes into the water, before wading into the deep-end. Just like how single family homes are a great way to start investing into real estate. What do you do when you're ready to make that transistion, and start getting involved in commercial multifamily real estate? What are the differences? Here are the three key things you need to know:  First, banks pay more attention to the personal situation of first-time borrowers than seasoned real estate investors. This means first-time borrowers should temper their expectations for their first deal and be prepared for close scrutiny.  Second, multifamily transactions are unlike single-family transactions. You'll be negotiating with one broker who represents both sides, leading to some awkwardness.  Third, managing a multifamily property requires a different system than managing a single-family home. Having a system in place is crucial for success.  So if you're looking to move into commercial real estate, keep these differences in mind and don't forget to do your research.  LEAVE A REVIEW if you liked this episode!!

Real estate investing is known as one of the most stable and risk averse investments you can make.   And investing in a DST might be the safest one out there. BUT... there are some drawbacks to DST's. Especially when you compare them to a syndicate.   Why invest in something that literally caps your returns?? Sure they're guaranteed but typically, a DST only offers something around 4%.  And when you factor in inflation... you might actually be losing money there.  So, when you compare the pros and cons... how do DST's compare to Syndicates?  Find out on this episode of Multifamily Investing Made Simple.  LEAVE A REVIEW if you liked this episode!!

If real estate is on your list... you're wrong. While real estate is a great investment, if you're just getting started in it, or in investing in general, you may want to pump the brakes a bit. There are several other areas that you can invest in to better set yourself up for success. And they all begin with you. Yeah, it's a little cheesy. But investing in yourself is the best investment you can make. And these are the top 3 ways that you can do that. First, self awareness. This is THE superpower that you want to hone. Understanding how you work, your strengths and weaknesses, is key to finding success. If you're great with numbers, but terrible with people... that's totally fine. Go out and find someone who is a marketing wizard. Don't try and be that guy or gal that does it all. Second, education. We can't state this enough, but you need to invest in your education. Now, this doesn't mean you have to go get some form of higher education. It's a lot more simple than that. Go out and find as many books, podcasts, and YouTube videos on whatever it is you're looking to accomplish. And don't be afraid to copy from those who are successful. If it worked for them, it can work for you. Third, network. Your network in real estate is tool belt. You will need it for EVERYTHING. Raising capital, managing properties, repairs, value-add, leasing, legal work, accounting... literally everything you can think of can be made so much easier with the right network. And we mentioned it before, but finding a great partner(s) is going to be key. Once you've invested in these 3 things, collect on those returns and get started in real estate.

There are many obstacles that new investors face when they begin their real estate investing journey. Anything from finances, education, to simply just not knowing the right people. 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. It just doesn't have to be complicated.  LEAVE A REVIEW if you liked this episode!! Keep up with the podcast! Follow us on Apple, Stitcher, Google, and other podcast streaming platforms.

Investing in multifamily real estate is our niche, it's our specialty. So, let's breakdown why you SHOULDN'T be investing in it:As with any investment... you could lose all of your money. Now, there's a lot that we do to mitigate this on our end as operators. We bring in inspectors to look over a property from top to bottom. In addition, we come into our deals very well capitalized. So if any issues were to arise, we wouldn't be caught with our pants down. We also only look for deals that are cash-flow positive from day 1. We want to hit the ground running when we close on a deal. It's honestly pretty difficult to lose all of your money in a multifamily investment, as a passive investor. The real trouble comes from your operator. So make sure that you heavily vet your operator(s) before you invest with them.  LEAVE A REVIEW if you liked this episode!! Keep up with the podcast!

So, you're purchasing your first investment property... and there's some work that needs to be done. If you want to get your rent up to the comp's in the area, you're going to need to add some value to the property, or the units. You can update the kitchen or bathroom. Maybe you need to replace the carpet? Or you might just need to fix that leaky faucet. You might be thinking... "Hey, I'm pretty handy. I bet I could do all of this myself". Well, that might be true, but is it worth it? When is it truly cheaper to DIY a value-add project? Or should you just hire out and get the project done fast?Find out on this week's episode of Multifamily Investing Made Simple, In Under 10 Minutes!Tweetable Quotes:"You're gonna learn some valuable skills that can serve you in the future as you're hiring out to vendors and whatnot. But you're not going to be able to scale that way."– Anthony Vicino"There is an argument to be made that DIY is a really great way to get started, because it changes the risk profile.

Sure, numbers don't lie... but we can make them say whatever we want them to. In today's episode, we're going to dive into how operators can use data to portray WHATEVER they want. And how they can do it in a way that might even be legal. Look, we've all heard cases of operators that are inflating their figures to influence either investors or the banks. And what they're doing is not just morally wrong, it's ILLEGAL. But what a lot of investors don't know, especially when they're new, is that operators can portray their track records in a way that is much more favorable than it might actually be. And technically, they're not lying. So, how do sneaky operators make the numbers work for them?Find out in this week's episode of Multifamily Investing Made Simple.   LEAVE A REVIEW if you liked this episode!!

Can you buy the dip when it comes to real estate investing?For those of you who aren't familiar, buying the dip simply means getting in while prices are low. The economy is suffering so stock prices are down. You buy the stock at that cheaper price and wait for it to go back up to sell.Right now a lot of people are positioning themselves for the recession. This is a time for caution... but also opportunity. The best investors out there will recommend utilizing times of economic uncertainty to invest and get in while things are low and slow. That way, when the economy picks back up again, you stand to make a pretty sizable profit.Now of course, risks MUST be assessed and mitigated. But here's the question you might be wondering? Can you buy the dip in real estate? Find out on this week's episode of Multifamily Investing Made Simple, In Under 1o Minutes.Tweetable Quotes:"In the last five years, there's really been no incentive for a seller to offer any kind of creative financing solution." – Anthony Vicino"That's the great thing about this asset class is it's a cash flowing machine, why would you want to sell?" – Dan Krueger LEAVE A REVIEW if you liked this episode!!

And we've spoken about these benefits many times... but... how much do passive investors benefit?In one of our previous episodes, we discussed the tax benefits of real estate investing and how depreciation played a role in those benefits. But there's a drawback to these benefits that doesn't get discussed enough... depreciation recapture. Let's dive into depreciation recapture and how much passive investors actually benefit from the tax incentives of real estate investing. Tweetable Quotes:"You'll hear people talking about how the tax benefits are are fantastic, but in reality, if you're a passive investor, they're good, but they're not fantastic."– Anthony Vicino"We are not CPAs and so we specifically talk high level about concepts and we don't get into the nitty gritty." – Dan Krueger LEAVE A REVIEW if you liked this episode!!
