In this industry, you’ll want to learn to love the numbers. Love them like they are part of you. For good or for bad, ‘til death do you part, never leave the numbers. One of the biggest questions I’m asked is how I analyze a property once I find it. What do I do, what do I look at, how do I know if it’s “the one”? There are several things I do and look at with any new property , but the first thing I look at is the numbers. If the numbers aren’t good, I move on to the next property. Save yourself some time and before you do anything else, run the numbers and see if they work. If they don’t, aw ..read more

“House hacking” is a popular term for buying a property that you live in yourself, and you also rent out part of it. Most often this would be buying a multi-family property and living in one unit while you rent out the other units, but it could also be that you buy a single-family property and live in one room while renting out the other rooms. Why do this? You can collect income on a property where otherwise money would only be flowing out. In a perfect world, this income would be at least equal to or higher than your mortgage payment and expenses. If that happens, then you are living for fre ..read more

How Rental Properties Make It 4X Easier to Retire Young

Don’t want to work forever? Me neither. I want to retire while I’m young and fit. Write novels. Work at a winery for fun. Be there for my (yet unborn) kids. And travel. My wife and I visit around ten countries each year and spend nine months of the year overseas. So I’m a bit obsessed with FIRE, or “financial independence/retire early.” And you can retire early with real estate roughly four times faster than you can with traditional stocks and bonds. Here’s how real estate – and rental properties, in particular – can help you reach financial independence within the next five to ten years, by t ..read more

I’d be amiss if I only ever told you the good things about real estate investing. Not to be cliché, but if it were that easy, everyone would do it. And whether it’s easy or hard, the other reality is that it does come with things that some people just flat out aren’t going to want to deal with. In those cases, no return is worth the hassle in their minds. Trust me, I get it. I’ve had moments where I’ve been more than ready to throw my hands to sky (middle fingers up) and call it quits. But that’s just par for the course; it comes with the territory of investing. So, taking the pretty roses awa ..read more

What are Turnkey Rental Properties and Should You Be Buying Them?
Hipster Investments | Ali Boone
by Ali Boone
8M ago
What is this magic phrase we keep using—turnkey rental properties? Turnkey (also spelled “turn key” and “turn-key”) technically refers to the condition of a property. The idea behind the phrase is that all you need to do is turn the key in the door and you’re making money on day one. This means that the property is already rehabbed, has tenants in and paying rent, and therefore you can start collecting income the minute you close on the property. There are some variances of what people use turnkey to mean. Some people will call a property turnkey even if there aren’t tenants in it. Some people ..read more
