What are you doing to differentiate your short-term rental property? From bowling alleys to solar panels, Cabins For You's Kevin Vozar is sharing his ideas on what it takes to stand out in an increasingly saturated STR market.As Kevin candidly puts it, if the property bubble hasn't quite burst yet, it's certainly leaking. And there are no guarantees that investing in a short-term rental property is going to guarantee great returns — unless you work out not only what will set you apart, but also how much time you need to put in yourself. And here Kevin is offering the advice that our host Mark McDaniel has mentioned in previous episodes too around understanding if it's better to have a property management company do a lot of the hard work for you. What makes this episode of The Good Endeavor Short-Term Rental Show so darned good is that Kevin, as the Senior Director of Owner Relations and Business Development at Cabins For You, has been around a while. And so he's warning against the non-accredited investors recommending fractional ownership, and he's asking you to think carefully before taking that leap of faith, while also still remaining bullish about the short-term vacation rental market. Please enjoy this industry 'giver' offering up a ton of valuable real estate insight! Please join us! “There's no guarantees owning a short-term vacation rental property. Regardless of what our friends in real estate say, there are no guarantees that you are going to get the rate of return that you are looking for. ~ Kevin VozarIn This Episode:Understanding the inherent risk in any investment, including STRsThe value of being a relationship builder in the real estate marketWhat to look out for in terms of other people's adviceHow to calculate your time investment before committing to a new propertyWhat's your WOW factor?

Cash flow is necessary when investing in rental properties. Cash flow grants you, the real estate investor, enough leeway to pay for your mortgage and taxes, and save up a healthy safety reserve for future renovations. For new real estate investors, cash flow is probably the single most important metric they look at, but it's not always a great predictor of a good investment. If you want to truly build wealth, generate passive income, and retire early (or rich), start looking at the metrics David Greene is talking about.Welcome back to another episode of Seeing Greene. Our cash flow creator, expert agent, and investor with decades of experience, David Greene, is back to answer your most asked questions. In this episode, we're touching on topics like when to focus less on work and focus more on real estate investing, why low cash flow isn't always a bad thing, what happens when an appraisal misses the mark, creatively financing home renovations, and how much every investor should have in safety reserves. 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 hop on a live Q&A and get your question answered on the spot! In This Episode We Cover:Why buying real estate in sprints is normal and when to lay off investingThe many metrics outside of cash flow that point to a great rental propertyWhat to do when an appraisal comes back low and how to challenge an appraisal The different ways to finance a home renovation and which will pave the way for more passive incomeHow much to keep in safety reserves if you're buying your first rental property And So Much More!Click here to check the full show notes: https://www.biggerpockets.com/blog/real-estate-633Interested in learning more about today's sponsors or becoming a BiggerPockets partner yourself?

Is multifamily real estate investing as complicated as investors make it out to be? If you're Andrew Cushman of Vantage Point Acquisitions, you'd probably argue that although multifamily has a bit more complexity than single-family rentals, it's still, by all means, profitable for the everyday investor. In the early 2000s, Andrew didn't know anything about pro formas, apartment underwriting, or the best type of mulch to use on large-scale landscaping. Now, more than a decade later, Andrew has been able to lead his team in acquiring, syndicating, and repositioning over 2,500 multifamily units. He's here with David Greene to answer live questions surrounding anything and everything related to multifamily investing. He gives stellar takes on the current state of the market, how rising interest rates will affect multifamily investing over the next few years, and the best way to increase your ROI (return on investment) on a multifamily acquisition.You don't need to be a large-scale apartment investor to take away some golden nuggets from this episode. Even if you've never thought of investing in multifamily, Andrew frames multifamily in a way that'll have you wondering, “could I buy that apartment down the street?” In This Episode We CoverThe five most important factors to understand when looking at a multifamily deal Multifamily debt and equity, plus how they dramatically differ from single family rentalsHow to use pro forma calculations when underwriting a deal and protecting yourself from overinflated profit numbersWhether or not today's rising interest rates will cause a sell-off of multifamily propertiesThe easiest improvements that will dramatically boost your ROI on a multifamily propertyWhat rookie investors get wrong about finding good deals in today's market And So Much More!Links from the ShowBiggerPockets Youtube ChannelBiggerPockets ForumsBiggerPockets Pro MembershipBiggerPockets BookstoreBiggerPockets BootcampsBiggerPockets PodcastSubmit Your Questions to David GreeneVantage Point AcquisitionsInvest with David GreeneThe 3 Cs to Achieving Success as an InvestorGoBundanceBiggerPockets Podcast 170: The Journey From Flipping Houses To Owning 1470 UnitsBiggerPockets Podcast 279: How to Find Overlooked Opportunities in a Hot MarketBiggerPockets Podcast 586: The 8 Steps That Will Stop You From Getting Burnt on Multifamily DealsBiggerPockets Podcast 571: Is This Deal Worth My Time?

How bad do you want to become a real estate investor? Our podcast guest for today wanted it so much that he knew he will make it happen no matter what happened. Out of his dorm room, Antoine Martel devoured all the information he could to make him fully equipped in winning real estate investing, an endeavor he knew he’ll enter right after college. True enough, right after graduation, he did not look for a job, instead began scouting for the first property they’ll be investing. Fast forward to six months after graduation, they had eight to 10 single-family homes in Memphis in the exact same neighborhood of their first property. This happened in the year 2017, but Antoine’s entrepreneurial inclinations began way earlier in his life. He is the kid in middle school selling candy and soda. In his junior year of university, his brother took him and his dad to a real estate investing seminar where they learned about flipping houses, rental properties, the BRRRR method, apartment buildings, etc. That’s when his interest started and never waiver. To this day, three years after, Antoine is doing 10x as much as what he thought he would be doing, having a hundred units portfolio in Memphis. They are also helping other people become wise investors through their Martel Turnkey services. If you are someone who understands the weight of real estate ownership and would like to learn more about how to do it successfully, then this episode is 100% for you! Antoine is sharing important tips about real estate investing, from what to consider when choosing your first investment property to how to scale them and investing in larger properties to pave way for more cash flow. Learn which mistakes to avoid. When you have the right mindset, knowledge, and guidance, you can not underestimate the things you can accomplish in a short amount of time. Be sure to listen to this episode in full and get ready to roll! Here’s What You Missed How Antoine developed his interest in real estateTips on criteria on finding your first propertyWhat is BRRRRWhat is turnkey property?How Antoine build their turnkey property business?What are the biggest mistakes investors make? Knowledge Nuggets [11:26] Criteria on finding the first property: Job growth, population growth, the diversity of the workforce, major employees, their industry, crime rates and then also just the property values. And so the median price for a home and the median rent for a home. [14:51] "By December, six months after graduation, we had like eight to 10 single-family homes in Memphis in that exact same neighborhood." [15:19] BRRRR: It's a way that you can grow a scalable portfolio with less than a hundred thousand bucks. You buy a property, all cash, you renovate it, you rent it out. Then you refinance it and because you rehab it cause you bought the property and renovated it and now it's worth more money. Now you can go to a lender and do what's called a cash-out refinance since you own it all cash. And the lenders, essentially going to write you a check, give you a mortgage on that property. And so you can have most of your principal investment back, um, and have very little cash left in the property. So you're able to turn that 50 grand over and over and over and over. [18:28] Selling properties like 'turnkey': Not just me doing it for my family, but doing it for other families as well. And so that's kinda when we started buying properties, renovating them, renting them out, but then selling them and then helping our clients get financing, insurance, property management. And so selling properties like turnkey with the tenant in place already. [20:24] Once I knew that there was a possibility of me selling it turnkey, I would go and find properties. I would make like an investment package and I would go to those investors and I'll be like, Hey, let's partner up on this. We have two options. we can either burn it together or we can flip it to one of these people that I think we can sell it to. And so you fund the deal, I'll manage the project and we'll split the profits 50 50. [25:52] The turnkey business was creating a lot of cash, but it wasn't creating any passive income. [26:55] On apartment buildings. You dumped your money into something you're good. You're good for the five or 10-year loan term that you have on that, on that apartment building. [32:40] On starting the turnkey business: That's kind of why we started the turnkey company too. I think it fills that void with people who had money saved up wanting to invest but didn't know where to start. That's all the two things that you need is 700 credit score in 20 grand in the bank. [37:59] So what we do for a lot of people, as we try to help them get to that 10 homes, and then what we do is we can either help them by selling those products, we can help them by refinancing those properties into a big portfolio loan and pull some of that money out. [40:47] On the biggest mistakes new investors make 1. They're choosing an investment strategy that doesn't make sense. With their resources, time, and cash that they have, it doesn't make sense for them to be wholesaling or flipping houses or doing ground-up developments. I always recommend just getting started and getting in the game and you'll figure it out later.  [43:19] On being a dreamer: Just not being satisfied with where you are, I guess would for me be a dreamer and striving to do better and to do more. [45:42] The only way that you grow is by getting out there and doing it. Would you rather pull the trigger and take the risk or regret never pulling the trigger at all? Important Reads and Links Recommended Books: Rich Dad Poor Dad by Robert KiyosakiSell It Like Serhant by Ryan SerhantThe 10X Rule by Grant Cardone Antoine Martel Website:                                          https://martelturnkey.com/             Antoine Martel Instagram:                       https://www.instagram.com/martelantoine Antoine Martel Twitter:                                            https://twitter.com/martelantoine  Antoine Martel LinkedIn:                                         https://www.linkedin.com/in/antoinemmartel             Love #DreamNation?

Hosted by: Kristina Modares and Steph Douglassfeaturing Nancy LopezProduced and Edited by: Alan GalinskyMusic by: BensoundPhoto by: Chelsea FrancisGraphic by: Molly KnoblochHighlightsHow Nancy (and Steph) took advantage of having roommates and eventually renting out their first properties to get the most of our their investmentsWhy getting caught up in the idea of failing can hold you back as an investorWhy Nancy choose socially responsible renting over more profit with her investment propertyWhat lessons were learned during a remodel that gave Nancy confidence to do it again Episode SummaryThis episode is the first Open House Podcast interview! Steph interviews Nancy Lopez, a friend of hers from childhood that now owns 2 properties in Austin.Steph and Nancy start by talking about how they met and their history, as well as Nancy's professional background. Nancy explains that seeing Steph buy her first home in 2013 inspired her to buy her first property in 2015. She details the experience, from the application process, to the cost, to the renovations she needed to make.She then explains how her second property sort of fell into her lap when she really wasn't planning to buy a new house. Once she saw this home, and saw the potential, she decided to check it out with Steph and put in an offer. After her purchase, she debated whether or not she should sell her first home to help pay for the second, but instead decided to rent it out. She made the incredible choice to rent it out at a fair price rather than hiking it up and making way more money, which she could have easily done.She then discusses what it's like owning two properties, her plans for her new home, and what she's learned by investing in real estate. She was much more comfortable doing renovations on her second property, because she's been through it before and knew what to expect. She felt a lot more confidence becoming a homeowner for the second time. There is a lot we can all learn from Nancy's experience, especially ways to be a socially responsible landlady. Guest Bio Nancy is 31 and originally from Houston,TX but has been living in Austin for nearly 10 years. She graduated from the University of Oklahoma with a degree in Journalism. Her first few years in Austin were spent in the Marketing field, but after a couple of “plot twists”, she found herself working in the tech field. She couldn't be happier to be where she is now and is so excited to share her investing story!Related ResourcesTransforming An Austin Home into a $40k Yearly Airbnb Money MakerHow To Buy a House In Your Early 20's And Make Money In Austin, TXShould You House Hack a Condo or House in Austin?How to Buy a House in Austin BookFollow us on Instagram and check out our website!
