Investing In Real Estate Podcast

The traditional path for putting down a down payment is using cash reserves from a savings account. But not everyone has enough cash available to pay for a down payment on a rental property. What are some more creative ways of finding a down payment?

That’s the first question I’m answering on today’s show. I’ll also be answering listener questions on investing in a self-directed account, plus how to start the process of market research. Please join me for the first episode of 2022!

On this episode you’ll learn:

  • Ideas for coming up with a down payment.
  • How to determine if you should invest in a self-directed IRA.
  • What to look for in a rental market.
  • Plus, my New Year’s wish for you!

Ideas for Coming Up with a Down Payment

This is one of my favorite topics, because creativity is truly a core principle of building wealth. Here are some ideas for coming up with a down payment: tapping into your home equity, consider private lending or hard money lenders (DLP comes to mind), or tap into your retirement funds. Here is a video that goes into further detail on coming up with down payment funds.

How to Determine If You Should Invest in a Self-Directed IRA

If you’re working with my team to invest in a self-directed retirement account, it’s possible that we will suggest a non-recourse loan. If you don’t have the entirety of the funds available in your IRA, a non-recourse loan plays well with the self-directed account. One drawback of a non-recourse loan is that it offers slightly higher interest rates than other loans.

I can’t tell you whether or not you should move forward with an investment, but my advice would be to weigh the pros and cons. While a non-recourse loan does offer a higher interest rate, there are many other benefits to this banking product. I would also say that generally speaking, it’s usually a good move to start investing sooner than later.

What to Look for in a Rental Market

When you’re looking for real estate markets, please remember that there is a difference between a hot market and a smart market for investing. Here’s what I look for in a rental market:

  • low crime
  • job growth
  • a growing population
  • highly-rated school districts
  • landlord-friendly cities and states
  • availability and effectiveness of property management companies

Here are some videos I’ve done in the past on finding real estate markets for investing.
