Want to work with me and learn the power of Mid-Term Rentals Insurance? https://experimentrealestate.com/submitGet the FREE Mid-Term Rental Insurance Blueprint: https://experimentrealestate.com/#blueprint Welcome to the lab! Today, we are joined by Zach Lemaster, the founder and CEO of Rent To Retirement, the nation's leading turnkey investment company. Zach is a seasoned real estate investor, licensed broker, and former US Air Force Captain, who transitioned from a career in optometry to building a multimillion-dollar real estate portfolio. His expertise spans single-family, multifamily, commercial, and new construction investments. Zach started investing while working as an optometrist and quickly realized that his local market wasn't providing the best opportunities for building long-term wealth. This led him to explore out-of-state investing, a move that dramatically accelerated his portfolio growth. However, he found that many investors struggled with identifying the right markets, building reliable teams, and securing financing—challenges that inspired him to create Rent To Retirement. His company now helps investors overcome these barriers by providing turnkey investment opportunities in high-growth markets, complete with expert guidance and strategic financing options.In this episode, Zach breaks down the key fundamentals of real estate investing, emphasizing the importance of consistency, market selection, and long-term wealth-building strategies. He shares how investors can tap into high-growth markets and acquire properties below market value through exclusive partnerships with national builders. Zach also reveals powerful financing options—including 5% down investor loans—that allow investors to accelerate growth while maintaining cash flow. Zach explains why investing in the right market is more important than just chasing cash flow and how equity, appreciation, and tax benefits play a critical role in achieving financial independence. He also walks us through real-life case studies of investors using turnkey properties, cost segregation, and strategic debt to optimize returns.If you want to maximize your real estate investments, reduce risk, and scale your portfolio faster, this episode is packed with insights that can change the game for you.Get the Midterm Rental Insurance Blueprint: https://experimentrealestate.com/#blueprintHIGHLIGHTS OF THE EPISODE:22:44 Zach talks about dealing with analysis paralysis24:13 Zach talks about maximizing tax advantagesKEEPING IT REAL:06:18 - The power of consistency in real estate investing09:09 - How to overcome analysis paralysis16:19 - Why choosing the right market is crucial for long-term success22:29 - The hockey stick effect and when to expect real wealth growth27:02 - 5% down financing strategy for scaling your portfolio faster32:48 - Hidden tax advantages that can accelerate your wealth40:13 - Maximize incentives and build instant equity when buying real estate46:23 - Key metrics Zach uses to identify profitable markets54:00 - Building a community and leveraging mentorship for success1:07:45 - We are OUT!!!CONNECT WITH THE GUESTWebsite: https://www.renttoretirement.com/Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/zach-lemaster-7b1530238/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/renttoretirementinvest/Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/c/RentToRetirement/featured#RealEstateInvesting #TurnkeyInvesting #MarketAnalysis #CashFlow #WealthBuilding
