Manage episode 353961760 series 2933812
What does it take to get started investing in real estate?
Insider knowledge? A big marketing budget?
Years of studying? A sophisticated system in place?
If you happen to be in that camp, our guest, Christoph Krekeler, will blow away any preconceived notions you may have about what it really takes to get started in real estate investing.
His story serves as a simple (and eye-opening!) blueprint on how almost anyone – regardless of your circumstances – can immediately get into the real estate investing game!
Here’s a sample of what we discuss:
- How to find great deals right on the MLS (yes… the MLS!) – even in a piping-hot market!
- Massively increasing a property’s value through the power of “forced appreciation”.
- How Christoph increased his profit on a single-family home rental – by 300%.
- Buying a 9-unit multifamily property appraised at $560k… for over $100k below market value!
- The power of “Seller Financing”… and why it works so well in this specific real estate asset class.
- Christoph’s biggest learning lessons… and what he wishes he would’ve focused on more intently – right from the beginning.
- The ultimate way to leverage into bigger deals – sooner rather than later!
