352: Rookie Reply: Seller Financing & How to Buy MORE Real Estate on YOUR Terms

We got to talk a WHOLE lot of real estate in 2023. With topics ranging from partnerships to home renovation hacks, we covered a ton of ground this year and hope the information helped YOU on your real estate investing journey!

Today, we’re taking a trip down memory lane—reflecting on all of the amazing guests and conversations we had on the show over the last twelve months. For this very special episode, we’ve handpicked a few of our favorite moments to share with you. Whether you’re looking to find your first deal or already own several rental properties, we hope this compilation gives you the inspiration and motivation you need to start the new year off strong!

Tune in to learn everything from getting your spouse on board with real estate to replacing your W2 income with rentals. You’ll find out why house hacking is perhaps the best entry point to real estate investing and why rental arbitrage is a cheat code for easy cash flow. You’ll even learn about the “open house” hack that one rookie investor uses to estimate rehab costs, as well as some clever ways to get more money out of your current portfolio!
