ADVICE

Set Clear Rental Investment Goal

  • Decide your goal before buying rentals: cash flow or appreciation.
  • Current high prices and interest rates make cash flow rentals tough in metro areas.
INSIGHT

Appreciation vs Cash Flow Reality

  • Appreciation builds long-term wealth more than small monthly cash flow.
  • Most appreciation markets today lose money monthly due to high costs and rates.
ADVICE

Use Alternative Rental Strategies

  • Use alternative rental methods like Airbnb or Section 8 to boost rent and get cash flow.
  • Remember, such strategies turn rentals into businesses needing active management and have regulatory hurdles.
