mortgage financing

There’s one way to invest in real estate that’s cheaper, easier, and more efficient than almost any other strategy. It allows you to get the best mortgage rates with the lowest down payments and buy properties in the best areas. And you can do it every single year until you grow a massive real estate portfolio. Real estate millionaires have been made using this strategy, but most Americans have no idea about it. What’s the wealth-building secret that savvy investors are taking advantage of? Of course, it’s house hacking. If you’ve never heard of house hacking before, the concept is simple: You buy a single-family home or a small multifamily property and rent out the space you’re not using. This not only allows you access to the best mortgages but also keeps your mortgage cost lower than living on your own. This strategy is so good that expert investor Dave Meyer and today’s lender guest, Terrence Terrell, have used it repeatedly to build serious wealth. If you’re a first-time homebuyer or have a home but want to get into rental property investing, this is THE strategy to try first. Terrence gives a beginner-friendly masterclass on house hacking, showcasing the huge benefits of house hacking’s low-money-down loans, what you need to have to qualify for a mortgage, the common misconceptions most people get wrong about house hacking, and how to use this strategy to build wealth fast. In This Episode We Cover House hacking explained and why it’s the easiest beginner real estate investing strategy  How to buy your first investment property with as little as ONE percent down  Qualifying for a mortgage and what first-time homebuyers must know before they apply The free way to find out whether or not you’ll be able to get financing for your house hack The easy, low-money-down way to build a real estate portfolio by house hacking  And So Much More!

The US dollar could be ousted as the world’s reserve currency as more and more countries move away from using a dollar-backed standard for trade. This could lead to an economic domino effect causing more inflation and a difficult domestic economy. But what will this do to the housing market? How will investors be affected, and will this global move put downward pressure on the US economy? Welcome back to another Seeing Greene where your “this is just my opinion” host, David Greene, shares his take on economics, lending, investing, and where to find cash flow in 2023. This time around, David touches on topics like flipping vs. BRRRRing and which makes more sense with high mortgage rates, why using a HELOC to invest in real estate could be risky, what to do when your rental won’t cash flow, and how to turn a troublesome rental into a fully-occupied cash cow.
