Episode notes

Want a zero percent interest rate and a paid-off seven-figure property? What about a quick fix and flip that’ll net you six figures in profits? Or, maybe buy an office and make nearly half a million dollars while having your own workplace? It’s 2023, and the housing market has turned most real estate investors off. Everyone thinks that deals are impossible to find, but funnily enough, we keep hearing stories about real estate investors making massive profits while residential buyers cower in fear. So, where can you find these deals?

We’ve brought back Kim Meredith-Hampton and Victor Steffen from the Tampa/St. Petersburg, Florida, area and the Dallas-Fort Worth, Texas, markets, respectively. Plus, Matthew Nicklin from southern seller’s market, Atlanta, Georgia, joins us as we review real deals from all three markets to show you that no matter the housing market cycle, you can STILL make money in real estate (even in 2023!)

We’ll go over six individual deals, from turnkey medium-term rentals selling at zero percent mortgage rates (with seller financing) to easy, instant cash flow deals with perfect tenants in place. But maybe you’re not a buy and hold investor. If so, a couple of flip deals are brought on to show that six-figure profit potential still exists for the right properties. And, we’ll deep dive into one of the agent’s commercial real estate deals that made nearly half a million dollars in equity alone!
