Episode notes

Small multifamily properties are one of the EASIEST ways to get into real estate investing. But, your market may be a little too pricey or lack the supply for you to invest in these “slam dunk” deals. So, where do you go? We’ve got two elite agents from the South and Midwest that can help YOU get your next killer deal in metro areas that are seeing STRONG demand, renter growth, and rising rents.

To tell us about Chicago, the “we don’t actually love deep dish” city, is Dan Nelson. Dan was recently able to access a “private listing” that was severely underpriced. He brought this deal to a rookie client of his, who ended up making a MASSIVE amount of equity on closing. We’ll also chat with Jodi Gauthier, a Houston-based agent who secured a very lucrative seller-financed deal for her client, who couldn’t get a mortgage anywhere else.

You might think these deals are too good to be true, ESPECIALLY in 2023’s housing market. But, we’re here to prove that as long as you’re in the right market, running the right numbers, with the right agent, you too can lock down these “slam dunk” small multifamily deals.
