In this episode we discuss the ins and outs of rental arbitrage with former investment banker and Airbnb investor, Michael Chang. Michael shares how he got into the business and what he has learned along the way, having managed 26 Airbnbs, 20 of which are rental arbitrage in Philadelphia, while owning the other 6 outright. He emphasizes the importance of building a great partnership with landlords and having a non-problem tenant to add value to their business.
Michael explains that rental arbitrage is a capital-efficient way to get into the business and is very scalable. He advises that the best way to find great locations is through data-driven research on demand and supply, and by being upfront and honest with potential landlords.
Michael also shares some of the downsides of rental arbitrage, such as the lack of control over the property, but notes that having a layer of trust with landlord partners and implementing percentage measures can help mitigate some of the risks. He also discusses how COVID impacted his business and how he had to pivot to focus on the highest value opportunities.

We sit down with Daniel Rusteen, an Airbnb expert who has worked for the platform, managed properties, and now consults for others. Daniel shares his insights and tips on how to view your Airbnb as a business, rather than just a hobby.
He emphasizes the importance of being specific about the amenities of your property, suggesting that less is often more when it comes to listing photos. Daniel also recommends providing a floor plan in the listing and using a highly converting title that includes the most sought-after amenities for your market.
Daniel advises hosts to think beyond Airbnb and other platforms as a listing service and create their own website with a domain name for their short-term rental. He shares stories of hosts who faced challenges with social media marketing and influencer partnerships, cautioning that these strategies may not be worth the investment for most hosts.

In today's episode, we're going from Massachusetts to Florida with Jeff Higgins, a seasoned real estate investor, to talk about the impact of incentives, evictions, and extreme weather.
As Jeff shares, incentives can have a massive impact on the decisions made by landlords and tenants alike. For example, in Florida, where the eviction process is much easier and quicker, landlords can enforce a 3-day pay or quit policy, while in Massachusetts, the eviction process can be slow and cumbersome, giving tenants more opportunities to delay or stall without penalty.
Jeff also discusses the impact of extreme weather events, such as hurricanes, on the real estate market. While it's a common myth that hurricanes don't hit Siesta Key, the reality is that extreme weather can lead to much higher insurance costs and make it harder for property owners to find affordable coverage.
In addition to the main topic, we introduce a new segment called ResilientREI Storytime, where we share inspiring stories of real estate investors who have overcome challenges and achieved success. In this episode, Jeff shares two stories, including one about a three-flat property in a bad area that he bought for $64k, did a ton of work on, and eventually sold for $425k, controlling $1.2 million across 11 condos in Florida.

We speak with Jonathan Yoo, COO, and Dustin Rosenberg, CEO of Convoy Home Loans, as they share their expertise on financing deals after leaving your day job.
For non-W2 individuals, getting a traditional mortgage can be challenging. Self-employed individuals, business owners, or full-time investors may not have the necessary paperwork or qualifications for these types of loans.
However, Jonathan and Dustin discuss an alternative solution - DSCR loans. These loans underwrite deals based on the cash flow of a property, rather than the borrower's personal income. This opens up opportunities for those who want to expand their rental property portfolios without being limited by traditional loan requirements.

It's the age old question... self manage or hire a property manager? For some people it is an easy decision. Self managing a large portfolio thousands of miles away would be stressful. But what if it's a handful or properties an hour or so away? You could make the case either way - self manage or hire a PM.
In this week's TalkingREI we hear from Mary Nickless on the pros and cons of both self managing and leveraging a property manager.

At every turn Shane Wallen encountered roadblocks - people not giving him the opportunity to make things happen (on the field or in the weight room).
Problem is… Shane was going to be on that field or in that weight room (one way or another). This ‘don’t tell me no’ mindset has set himself up for success in his own real estate portfolio.
This week we hear Shane’s origin story - next week we dive into the real estate side of his life.

Starting a company is never for the faint of heart. When Jonathan Yoo and Dustin Rosenberg launched Convoy Home Loans in 2021 they knew the gravy train off refinances and record mortgage activity would not last forever. So instead of building a company around the easy money - they built one around the clients who were under served: investors and luxury buyers.
This week's Bonus Episode hears their thoughts on the market, how they built a mortgage company to outlast the volatility, and their predictions for the market.

This week we hear from Taylor Coleman Adams on her inspiring story of going from an ambitious university employee to a financially independent real estate entrepreneur in just four years.
Taylor used to looked up to the successful women executives and dreamed of one day reaching the C-Suite. But a shakeup at work showed her that job security is a myth and prompted her to take control of her own financial future.
Taylor shares the strategies and mindset shifts that helped her achieve financial independence through real estate, and discusses what it's like to be "retired" and working in real estate full-time. Tune in for an inspiring and practical conversation about building wealth and taking charge of your financial future.

Finding deals is never easy - which makes the work wholesalers do incredibly important. They're the individuals (or companies) looking for off-market deals from motivated sellers. This is not an easy task but can be very lucrative if you can build out systems and a team around you.
This episode is a recording of the TalkingREI Twitter Space on 12, 13, 2022 with our Wholesaler Pro - Jordan Santiago. Jordan shares his tips on how wholesalers (and investors) can still find deals in a down market.

Jason Rash is a real estate investor out of Colorado. He got his start in the early days of COVID when we built a 10 property portfolio together in just 8 months. This explosive growth has given him unique insight as he was previously a stock investor. Until he lost $20,000+ in under 10 minutes. This sudden dip got him thinking that maybe there is a better way.
This discussion centers around the differing mindsets between real estate investors and crypto / stock day traders. This difference is important for new investors to understand. One is looking for that homer deal - while the other is looking to get on base (knowing they can get to second, third, and eventually score).

Jeff found himself in a bind... He really wanted to move to Florida but all his rentals were in Massachusetts. Now most people would go find an off-the-shelf property management company. Thing is, that's not Jeff's M.O.
He opted to train his rockstar contractor to be his rockstar contractor / property manager! This was super helpful as this contractor already had plenty of experience with the properties and Jeff had plenty of experience working with his contractor! The moral to this story is that you can be creative in building your team!

Who wouldn't love to buy more properties at 3% interest rates? Okay... everyone? The trick is that we won't see new traditional mortgages in that sub 4% range for a while. We might not ever see rates sub 3% ever again... But that doesn't mean we can't keep buying new properties with those kind of rates.
The tactic to leverage is creative financing and namely Subject To. A strategy that allows you to acquire a new property while keeping the previous mortgage. And this week we have the leading voice when it comes to creative finance - Pace Morby. The man who has done more for educating investors and wholesalers on creative finance than anyone else.

For many investor - the BRRRR Strategy is often hailed as the perfect investment strategy. And to be clear if done correctly it can be incredibly lucrative. Allowing you to achieve infinite returns and recycling capital into the next deal.
Yet BRRRR (like all investment strategies) comes with risk. What if the appraised price goes down? What if the financing terms aren't as great as you thought? What happens if the repairs are much more than expected?
This week we will be hearing from Sunny Shakhawala on his experience with BRRRR. How he built tons of equity but always struggled cash flowing. To the point where he decided that the BRRRR method didn't suit his goals.

For a number of years David Sanford was content with buying one property every 6 to 12 months. As a manager at a Pizza joint then recruiter for the National Guard - he thought he was doing pretty well. That is until he discovered private money.
His discovery of private money allowed him to super charge his portfolio. Going from 8 doors to over 50 in just 2 years! The incredible thing is that when he started - he didn't have a huge network of wealthy friends. He had to network, source deals, manage rehabs, get refinancing, all while still working a W2. His grind is admirable!

Who says finding off market deals has to be a boring affair? Not Drew Zaruba!
Being a senior in college has given Drew a unique perspective on his local market. Every weekend he is invited to house parties - which gives him the unique ability to walk the property. Plus he is able to get real insight from the tenants (his friends) on the property's ownership. Wouldn't we love to walk dozens of properties, talk with the tenants, and get the owner's contact information (all while having a sip of the finest Jungle Juice).

If you're like me - you don't want to be fixing toilets at 3am. In fact I'd prefer to not fix toilets in general. Not because I'm afraid to get my hands dirty - I'm just not super handy. A simple fix would likely turn into a full bathroom remodel. Which is why I work a property manager who helps ensure simple fixes are just that (a simple fix).
Property Managers can be incredibly helpful - allowing you to not focus on the day to day of your portfolio. Instead of managing a ton of rentals - you mange the manager managing those rentals (clear as mud right?). The trick is that there are a ton of awful property managers out there. Which can be a nightmare for both you and your tenants.
This week we will be hearing from a seasoned remote real estate investor who has worked with countless property managers. I'm talking about Michael Albaum, the head coach of the Roofstock academy. Where he will share his experiences on how to vet, manage, and (if need be) fire a property manager. This is a must listen for all investors who either invest out of state or are looking to free up their time.

The hard truth is that it takes a significant amount of money to invest in real estate. This is one of the major reasons why people choose to never explore the asset class further. In reality there are plenty of people with humble beginnings who found a way to put together enough money to buy rental properties.
Tom Brickman (aka The Frugal Gay) is one such investor. While never making 6-figures at his day job - he has been able to build a 19 property portfolio. All stemming from his ability to flip products on Ebay. In this episode Tom breaks down his story and how he was able to achieve financial freedom without ever making more than $80k in his day job.

In most cases - buying an occupied property means you have one goal: getting the below market rents up to market rate. This process can be painful for all parties: tenants and landlords. It never feels good having to displace tenants to make a return.
This is where Dion McNeeley's Binder Method comes into play. Dion has developed a strategy where his new tenants actually ask him to raise their rents. His approach is rather simple. He outlines what the market rate is for a similar property and simply asks what is fair. This strategy has allowed him to buy under market properties without needing to do expensive rehabs and displace good tenants.

It is becoming more apparent that we're nearing the next recession. Leading me to ask what we should be doing/thinking to ensure we can first survive and ultimately thrive once the dust has settled.
In this episode we hear from Michael Zuber - host of the One Rental At A Time YouTube Channel (and book of the same name). Michael has been investing across three recessions and has studied the last period of high inflation (the 1970's). On this episode Michael shares how us investors should be approaching this next recession.
In this episode Michael shares how he is preparing both financially and mentally. First through strong cash positions. Secondly through a mental trick to keep himself focused on finding that next deal.
