Episode notes
Ten-Year One-A-Year Plan
- Buy one profitable rental property per year and repeat for ten years to build time-leveraged cash flow.
- Treat real estate as an income-building business, not speculation, to generate consistent monthly cashflow.
Buy In Lower-Cost Markets
- Look beyond expensive coastal markets and target Midwest or lower-cost states to find cash-flowing deals.
- Use DSCR or low-down-payment loans and parental cosign if needed to buy with minimal personal cash.
Daughter Bought Her First Rental
- Dustin's 16-year-old daughter bought a $125,000 Ohio rental with about $12,000 down using a DSCR loan and his cosign.
- The property nets roughly $300/month and is used to teach reinvestment discipline.
