If you're stepping into 2026 determined to improve your cash flow, protect your rentals, and scale smarter, this episode is for you. We're kicking off the year by talking about the real opportunities available for landlords in 2026 — and the roadblocks that keep so many people stuck. Before you make another move, you need clarity on what's holding your portfolio back and how to break through it this year. Inside this episode, I'm sharing three simple but powerful ways to cut your expenses as a landlord — strategies most investors overlook, even though they can save hundreds (and sometimes thousands) each year: • How smart thermostats and routine HVAC servicing prevent expensive repairs • Why an annual insurance review is non-negotiable — and how raising your deductible can reduce premiums • How disciplined landlords can manage property taxes through a high-yield savings account • why hiring a real-estate-friendly CPA is one of the most profitable decisions you can make in 2026 These changes aren't flashy — but they are transformative. This is how you protect your cash flow, strengthen your rentals, and scale with confidence this year.

Freedom does not come from one big win. It comes from knowing your bills are paid whether you show up or not. Brian Tran learned that lesson early. Raised in an immigrant family that came to this country with nothing, he watched his parents work nonstop just to survive. Hard work was never the issue. Stability was. That experience shaped how Brian thought about money, risk, and what real security actually means. Instead of chasing fast wins, Brian focused on building cash flowing rental properties first. Not to get rich overnight, but to create breathing room. Monthly income that showed up consistently became the foundation that allowed him to take bigger swings later without putting his family or future at risk. In this episode, Brian breaks down how rental properties became the engine behind everything he built. From flipping homes to scaling multiple businesses, those steady checks gave him confidence, leverage, and optionality most people never experience. When things worked, he scaled. When things did not, his life did not collapse. We also unpack how he invested out of state from high cost markets, why cash flow matters more than hype, and how stable income completely changes how you approach risk, growth, and opportunity. This episode is not about shortcuts. It is about building a base so strong that you can bet on yourself without fear. If you want wealth that supports your life instead of controlling it, this conversation will change how you think about money and real estate. Book your mentorship discovery call with Cory RESOURCES

This week, we are having an honest and heartfelt conversation about the sacrifices that come with building a life through real estate investing. We reflect on our individual financial journeys and the lifestyle changes we made early on—living below our means, rethinking spending habits, and strengthening our personal financial foundations before taking on larger investments. We share what it looked like during our DIY era, the risks we embraced as entrepreneurs, and the lessons we learned by building something from the ground up. While those seasons required hard choices, they also clarified our values and helped us align our lives with what truly mattered.We also talk about the rewards that come from those sacrifices and how intentional living has allowed us to create both financial freedom and personal fulfillment. We discuss the motivation that comes from milestones like receiving a first rent payment, the importance of community and surrounding ourselves with like-minded women, and why sacrifice doesn't have to mean a joyless life. Travel, self-care, and finding joy in small moments remain priorities for us, even as we continue to grow. Ultimately, this episode is a reminder that it's okay to quit, pivot, and try again—and that with patience, alignment, and support, real estate investing can lead to a life that feels purposeful, balanced, and deeply rewarding.  Resources:Simplify how you manage your rentals with TurboTenantGet in touch with Envy Investment GroupGrab our property management checklistMake sure your name is on the list to secure your spot in The WIIRE Community Leave us a review on Apple PodcastsLeave us a review on SpotifyJoin our private Facebook CommunityConnect with us on Instagram

In this episode, we sit down for a year-end audit of our real estate portfolios and have an honest conversation about what's working, what's creating stress, and where we need to make changes. We talk about why prioritizing our bookkeeping and truly understanding our numbers is essential to making confident decisions, and how identifying our most stressful properties often reveals deeper issues tied to systems, tenant management, or profitability. By breaking things down property by property, we're able to evaluate not just financial returns, but also the return on our time and energy.We also share personal experiences around tenant screening, managing properties more efficiently, and experimenting with different management strategies to find what best supports our goals and lifestyles. Throughout the conversation, we emphasize the importance of regularly reassessing our portfolios, setting clear investment goals for the future, and leaning into community for support, perspective, and shared strategies. This episode is a reminder that successful real estate investing isn't just about growth—it's about building a portfolio that feels aligned, sustainable, and empowering.  Resources:Simplify how you manage your rentals with TurboTenantGet in touch with Envy Investment GroupGrab your free Property Management ChecklistDownload our free SOP TemplateMake sure your name is on the list to secure your spot in The WIIRE Community Leave us a review on Apple PodcastsLeave us a review on SpotifyJoin our private Facebook CommunityConnect with us on Instagram

We've all come across that property—the one with the irresistibly low price in the bad area of town. The numbers make it look like a home-run real estate deal, but are there too many red flags to ignore? We'll show you exactly what to do when analyzing this type of rental property!   Welcome back to another Rookie Reply! We've pulled three new questions from the BiggerPockets Forums, and first up, an investor wants to know whether or not they need an umbrella policy for their property. Tune in as Ashley and Tony share their thoughts on insurance, LLCs, and a range of asset protection strategies you can use to safeguard what's yours. Then, we weigh the pros and cons of FHA and conventional loans. One of these options gives you a clear advantage when it comes to seller negotiations!   Our final question comes from an investor who's considering a “great” deal in a less desirable part of town. It looks good on paper, but are other investors steering clear for good reason? We break down when it makes sense to buy this type of deal, and conversely, when it's more trouble than it's worth! Looking to invest? Need answers? Ask your question here! In This Episode We Cover What to know before buying a good real estate deal in a bad neighborhood How to protect your assets with umbrella policies, LLCs, and other strategies Whether you should get an FHA loan or conventional loan for your rental property How to create “stable” rental income through Section 8 investing Why you always need to have cash reserves for your investment property And So Much More!

In this episode of the Smart Real Estate Coach Podcast, I'm finally pulling back the curtain on how we insure our own portfolio. For about 12 years, my family and I have insured all of our non-owner-occupied, investment properties through National Real Estate Insurance Group (NREIG), whether it's buy-and-hold rentals, multifamily, or creative subject-to deals.   I'm joined by Seth Markum, Executive VP of Sales at NREIG, with 20+ years in property and casualty insurance and a background in building one of the first national online commercial P&C agencies. We break down landlord insurance vs. homeowners insurance, why rental properties are treated as commercial exposure, and how NREIG structures real estate investor insurance across single-family, multifamily, short-term rentals, mobile homes, land, and creative strategies even if you're using multiple LLCs in multiple states.   Seth also walks you through their monthly reporting program, how one flexible policy can follow a property from occupied to vacant to renovation without gaps in coverage, and how they handle subject-to insurance the right way.   If you've ever wondered how to properly insure your rental properties and real estate investments, this episode will show you exactly what to ask for and how to get a proposal from NREIG.   Key Talking Points of the Episode: 00:00 Introduction 01:11 Who is Seth Markum? 03:19 Landlord vs. homeowner policies (and why homeowners "never works") 04:18 One company vs. multiple niches: why customization matters 05:08 No one-size-fits-all: mix forms, deductibles & locations 06:21 What makes NREIG different from other insurance companies 08:19 Why you don't want "agent Bob on the corner" for creative deals 09:01 Making insurance simple for real estate investors 10:02 Dealing with vacancies and fix and flips with NREIG 11:21 How to get a proposal from NREIG 13:10 The importance of understanding the kind of insurance you have   Quotables   "If you're not getting a customized policy… that may not be the scenario that you want to entertain."    "All phases of occupancy are contemplated on our single policy form."   "If you just want something that's going to be all encompassing, no matter what your strategy is, this is going to be the best solution for you."   Links   NREIG https://nreig.com/ sales@nreig.com   QLS 4.0 - Use coupon code for 50% off https://smartrealestatecoach.com/qls Coupon code: pod   Apprentice Program https://3paydaysapprentice.com Coupon code: Podcast   Masterclass https://smartrealestatecoach.com/masterspodcast   3 Paydays Books https://3paydaysbooks.com/podcast   Strategy Session https://smartrealestatecoach.com/actionpodcast   Partners https://smartrealestatecoach.com/podcastresources

The hosts transition to their high school years, detailing the dramatic shift in their educational environment. They discuss the pervasive influence of the crack cocaine epidemic, exploring how illicit activities often provided a quicker path to financial knowledge and wealth (e.g., rental properties) than the formal education system. This segment contrasts the academic curriculum with the harsh, real-world "education" they received from the streets.

Before you buy your first (or next) real estate deal, you need to know one thing—how to calculate cash flow on a rental property.  The problem? 99% of investors do this wrong and get burned as a result. That's why after buying dozens of rental properties, we've come up with arguably the most accurate way to calculate real estate cash flow, and today, we're showing you how to do it, too. Joining us is Ashley Kehr from the Real Estate Rookie podcast, who's been buying rentals routinely for over ten years now. We'll use the BiggerPockets Rental Property Calculator (which you can try for free!) to run numbers on a real rental property Dave is looking to buy right now. You'll learn exactly how to estimate both fixed and variable expenses, how much emergency reserves to set aside, how to account for property management fees, vacancy, repairs, and more, plus what to do to instantly boost your potential cash flow before you buy! In This Episode We Cover How to calculate cash flow on any rental property before you submit an offer The easiest way to increase your cash flow if it's not hitting the mark What a good deal looks like to Ashley and Dave (when they'd submit an offer) How to estimate your expenses (accurately) so you get the most cash flow possible  How much cash flow should you be making in 2026?  And So Much More!

How does a 9th-grade dropout end up retiring early in his 40s with over 50 rental properties that generate the highest possible cash flow?  And we're not talking about big properties—no apartment buildings or commercial real estate. This investor built the perfect rental property portfolio from duplexes and triplexes—small multifamily properties that any new investor can buy. Instead of taking his energy and buying larger properties, he reinvested in the ones he had, which made him even more money, allowing him to scale faster. Matt (the Lumberjack Landlord) and his wife have self-managed over 100 rental units, meaning all that cash flow goes to them. Using his “acquire, stabilize, optimize” formula, Matt's rentals make hundreds more in cash flow per unit than other properties. This has allowed him to retire in his 40s, all while supporting his family of six. Today, he's showing you how you can make the most from your rental properties, too. Simple utility changes, smart renovations for higher rents, cheap (and efficient) upgrades, and more can put hundreds of dollars back in your pocket every month. Plus, he shares how to keep your best tenants, even during tough economic times. If Matt could do it all while working 60+ hour weeks, why can't you? In This Episode We Cover How to make the most cash flow possible by self-managing your rentals  Bigger isn't better: Why Matt exclusively buys small multifamily properties  The “formula” for the rental portfolio that can retire you in your 40s  How to afford your first rental property even if you're low on cash  Why every investor should talk to local banks first about financing their rentals  Easy ways to keep your best tenants even when the economy gets shaky  Would you live in a jail?

Mike Baum owns just one rental property, but this one property alone has changed his life. It's allowed him to become such an investing expert that he's constantly being asked for his opinion on the BiggerPockets forums, and he provides some of the most well-thought-out investing advice on the internet. So why does he have just one rental property, and why doesn't he grow using his expertise? The answer isn't that obvious. You wouldn't know it, but Mike is permanently disabled. After overworking so hard that he ended up losing his vision, he was placed on disability for the rest of his working career. This high achiever was forced to slow down and find something else that could replace his day job. Shortly after his diagnosis, he found BiggerPockets and turned a family vacation home into a short-term rental. Now, he's got systems and processes that help him self-manage with very few headaches, and he will probably keep this property as his one and only rental for life. Why didn't he “FOMO” in when everyone was gobbling up real estate in 2020? Why didn't he grow his portfolio to become the next tycoon? Mike has some clear answers for why he did what he did, and after listening to him, you might change what you want, too. In This Episode We Cover: Why you DON'T need a large real estate portfolio to find financial success when investing Why Mike tells beginner investors that they should NOT buy a short-term rental property The systems and processes Mike made to automate his vacation rental self-management (so he works less!) One thing you should do NOW before you start investing in real estate (it's free!) The real result of “FOMO” investing and how to stop shiny object syndrome from blowing you off course And So Much More!

In this episode, we open up about the creative strategies we've discovered as female real estate investors to secure capital when traditional funding feels out of reach. We share our experiences with tapping into equity, refinancing, and leveraging our networks, along with creative financing options like seller financing and partnerships. Throughout our journey, we've learned the importance of community, due diligence, and strategic planning.We've found that accessing our own equity through refinancing or HELOCs and building strong networks has been key to uncovering creative financing options. Understanding return on equity (ROE) has helped us evaluate property performance, and partnerships have provided us with capital, though they require careful due diligence.Raising private money and exploring creative financing methods like seller financing have been game-changers for us, bridging funding gaps when needed. We've realized that community support is invaluable for sharing resources and advice, and regularly reviewing our portfolio's equity is crucial for strategic planning. These approaches have empowered us to make informed decisions and grow our investments with confidence.  Resources:Grab your seat for our webinar on November 17thCheck out Episode 197Simplify how you manage your rentals with TurboTenantGet in touch with Envy Investment GroupMake sure your name is on the list to secure your spot in The WIIRE Community Leave us a review on Apple PodcastsLeave us a review on SpotifyJoin our private Facebook CommunityConnect with us on Instagram

In this episode of the Smart Wealth & Retirement Podcast, financial advisors and retirement planners Jim Martin & Casey Bibb of Martin Wealth Solutions explore whether owning rental properties is a smart move during retirement.

If you want to learn how to invest in real estate with no money, the right way, you need to take tips from those who have done it successfully without overleveraging themselves.

In this episode, we'll walk through the steps you need to take and strategies you must try to buy real estate with no money. We'll talk about how to fix your credit and become lendable, improve your income so you have cash reserves, down payment assistance programs that can get you into your first property for under $1,000, and the minimum amount you'll need to invest safely.

Do you dream of financial freedom, but aren't sure how to reach it? Ashlee Perry was in a similar boat, but in just one year of real estate investing, she has been able to turn her home into a money-making machine and buy a rental property with low money down—bringing her one step closer to her ultimate goal! Welcome back to the Real Estate Rookie podcast! Ashlee had always wanted to reach financial freedom, but it wasn't until she discovered real estate that she saw a clear roadmap for achieving it. To test the waters, Ashlee listed her primary residence on Airbnb and stayed with her parents and friends while it was booked out—a move that made almost $25,000 in year one. She has since bought her first investment property—a duplex she currently house hacks—and converted her previous home into a long-term rental! In this episode, Ashlee shares the strategies she used to create a five-figure income stream using only her primary residence and how she's building a real estate portfolio with low-money-down investment properties. She also offers several helpful tips for rookie landlords, like best practices when inheriting tenants! In This Episode We Cover Ashlee's roadmap for achieving financial freedom with real estate investing How to turn your home into a part-time rental that pays your mortgage How to buy an investment property with low money down (less than 20%) Best practices for managing and communicating with inherited tenants Scaling your real estate portfolio fast with the house hacking strategy And So Much More!

This is how to make the most money possible from your rental properties without buying another unit. We got into real estate investing to build wealth, not have the biggest portfolio possible. Financial freedom isn't so freeing when you have a hundred rental units and hundreds of tenants calling. So, can you make more money with fewer rental units? Yes, and today, we're giving you five ways to do it. Each of these tips will help you increase your cash flow without having to put a down payment on another property. You can raise the value of each rental unit (growing your net worth) and boost rents by hundreds of dollars a month (more cash flow, same property). We're discussing the amenities that renters will pay more for, the “convenience” factors you can charge for, and the strategies that generate more revenue than long-term rentals. You don't need a huge real estate portfolio to achieve financial freedom, but you do need an efficient one. Follow any of these five tips, and you could make more with less, reaching your ultimate cash flow goal faster. In This Episode We Cover How to increase the “perceived” value of your rental property with inexpensive upgrades  The amenities that renters will gladly pay more for (and aren't difficult to add) The “capacity” renovations Henry uses to increase his cash flow by thousands per year  When to switch from a long-term rental to a higher-revenue short or medium-term rental  The “convenience” amenities that take spare space and turn it into extra income  And So Much More!

This investor turned a $25,000 rental property (yes, you read that right) into a real estate portfolio producing $5,000/month in actual cash flow. He had no experience, lived in a small town many would write off, and was working 60 hours a week. But small towns mean less competition and lower prices, and Dustin Cardenas was ready to take advantage. Seven years later, he's financially free thanks to his small rental portfolio! Dustin's small town of 30,000 people is located in one of the most affordable parts of the country. Houses routinely sell for $30,000 to $50,000, a down payment for many investors across the US. He's what you'd call an “everyman”—he's worked in pest control, as a car salesman, and in a juvenile detention facility. In other words, he had no silver spoon. When a local investor in town told him, “You can do this,” he took the chance. Now, seven years later, he's got 20 rental units, left his full-time position at work, and is making a life-changing amount of rental income. These affordable, cash-flowing towns exist throughout the US, and like Dustin, you could use them to reach financial freedom!  In This Episode We Cover The uber-affordable small Midwest towns where rentals are less than $50,000 The perfect starter real estate investment Dustin used to scale fast  Why you must ask your bank for a line of credit if you're ready to invest more  Dustin's tips to save money on your next rental renovation (huge savings!) Better than Airbnb? Why Dustin ditched his short-term rental and makes phenomenal cash flow with this strategy  And So Much More!
