    967: BiggerNews: Apartment Investing Took a Huge Hit, Is a Comeback On the Way? w/Brian Burke
    Jun 7 2024
    Almost overnight, multifamily investing went from red-hot to something not even the most experienced investors would touch. After interest rates went up, rent growth stalled, and apartment supply flooded the market, the apartment investing industry became the ugly duckling of real estate. Owners struggled to get tenants and had huge balloon payments due, and no one was there to save them. But one man predicted that this would happen before anyone else—Brian Burke. After seeing a crash on the horizon, Brian sold off most of his multifamily real estate portfolio and did it at just the right time. Now, he has a new prediction that could make apartment investors very happy. But a market turnaround won’t come quickly, and if you want to ensure you don’t make the same mistakes most multifamily investors made in 2020 - 2022, you’ll need to hear this BiggerNews episode. In this BiggerNews, Brian walks through everything that went wrong with multifamily real estate, signs it’s time to sell your properties, and some hope on the horizon for 2025 that most investors have no idea about. Support today’s show sponsor, Rent App: the free and easy way to collect rent! In This Episode We Cover A multifamily real estate update and Brian’s buying plans for 2024 and 2025 The “sobering reality” of the perfectly timed “traffic accident” that hit multifamily all at once Why as soon as you sense “irrational exuberance,” it may be time to sell your real estate An optimistic prediction from Brian on when multifamily could finally get back on its feet Syndication struggles and what every syndicator/investor should be doing NOW Why the multifamily oversupply may NOT be a problem in the coming years And So Much More!

  • 966: Top Investors Reveal Their Worst Real Estate Deals (DON'T Repeat Them!)

    966: Top Investors Reveal Their Worst Real Estate Deals (DON'T Repeat Them!)
    Jun 5 2024
    Think you've got a bad real estate deal? We doubt it comes even close to what we’re about to share. Today, the experts are in to talk about bee-infested rental properties, risky flips, “wholetail” failures, and other ways that they’ve lost money with real estate deals gone wrong. Why are we sharing such horrific stories? Because we want YOU to be able to avoid the same fate on your first or next investment property. Take a seat, get some popcorn, and pray that your properties won’t turn out like this… First, Henry Washington from the On the Market podcast shares his recent luxury flip…or should we say, luxury “flop.” This property was poised to make him up to a six-figure profit, but it didn’t work out that way. One simple mistake ruined this real estate deal and forced Henry to slowly pay away all his profits to a hard money lender. Next, our own Rob Absolo talks about the dangers of NOT looking at the comps when doing a “wholetail” deal and how you could easily find yourself with a home worth less than what you put into it. Finally, the deal of all horrible deals comes out…David Greene’s deal. Where do we even start? Permit problems, mold, bee infestations, and NO way out—this short-term rental gone wrong is costing David hundreds of thousands of dollars, and with little light at the end of the tunnel, he may be forced to do something drastic. So, how do YOU avoid these nightmarish real estate deals? Stick around so you know exactly what NOT to do. In This Episode We Cover Three of the worst real estate deals our investing experts have ever done Why not knowing your neighborhood can cost you BIG on your next house flip The danger of hard money loans and the massive interest they come with Why you NEED a partner/mentor in your area to confirm a property’s worth The so-called “landlord-friendly” state that’s actively trying to ruin David Greene How nosy neighbors can end up costing you hundreds of thousands of dollars Whether or not our investing experts regret investing in real estate after this And So Much More! (00:00) Intro (01:24) A Risky Luxury Flip (06:02) Final Numbers and Exit Plans (09:19) Henry’s Mistake (11:14) An Overpriced Wholetail (15:04) Rob’s Mistake (23:23) The City Ruined My Real Estate (32:43) David Lost HOW Much!?

  • 965: Seeing Greene: Insurance and Taxes Killed My Cash Flow, Should I Sell?

    965: Seeing Greene: Insurance and Taxes Killed My Cash Flow, Should I Sell?
    Jun 4 2024
    Want a quicker way to buy rental properties? One that takes less cash, less time, and is beginner-friendly? Then you’re in the right place! In this Seeing Greene, we’re talking about the “sneaky rental tactic” that can help you build a real estate portfolio in just a few years. And if insurance and property taxes have been eating away all your cash flow, we go through a real-life investor’s situation to determine whether he should hold, fold, or change his real estate strategy. All that, and more, is coming up! Like most investors in America, your property expenses are rising, but rent isn’t climbing at the same rate. What do you do when your cash flow disappears? That’s what our first investor is asking. Then, a house hacker wants to know how to get into his second property and what rules he has to follow to house hack once again. A rent-by-the-room investor gets given an ultimatum by his potential tenant—what should he do? We’ll also discuss the difference between “cheap” and “bad” houses, what to look for in a home inspection, and what to do when guests throw a party at your Airbnb. 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 Whether to keep or sell a rental property if it no longer brings in monthly cash flow The “sneaky rental tactic” anyone can use to buy their first (or next) investment property How many checking accounts you should have for your real estate portfolio Renting-by-the-room and what to do when a tenant has make-or-break demands The problem with buying “cheap houses” and why we steer clear of them What we look at in a home inspection report and what you should always ask the inspector How to stop parties and large gatherings from happening at your Airbnb or short-term rental And So Much More! (00:00) Intro (01:51) Sell My Low-Cash-Flow Rental? (07:30) The “Sneaky” Rental Tactic (12:55) How Many Checking Accounts? (15:05) Buying “Cheap” Houses (21:50) Home Inspections 101 (27:58) Ask Airbnb Guests for ID?

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.
