  • Feeling scared to do your first or next real estate deal? Even if everything goes wrong, you may still be in a better position than Ayesha and Kevan Shelton were just a few years ago. After quitting their jobs to become full-time real estate investors, Ayesha and Kevan found themselves staring at a $300,000 loss. Their credit was ruined, their life savings drained, and most of their partners walked away, never to return. Ayesha and Kevan did the right thing, paying back every investor who funded their failed house flips, but it came at a cost.
    With a baby on the way, Ayesha and Kevan were debating bankruptcy to get some relief from the massive financial pressure they were under. But some wise investors told them they had it in them to rebuild their wealth—and that’s precisely what they did. In today’s incredible investor story, you’ll hear about how this power couple pivoted to turn their business around and began investing in new build construction projects.
    Now, five years later, they’ve built sixty homes, developed their own communities, and created true wealth out of nothing. The best part? These new construction homes are affordable housing, helping solve the inventory crisis we’re currently facing and giving those that truly need it safe, affordable, quality homes to live in. And if Ayesha and Kevan can do it starting from negative, you can too, even if you’re starting from zero!
    In This Episode We Cover:
    How Ayesha and Kevan turned a $300K loss into a massively successful business 
    Why you always (ALWAYS!) pay back the investors you’ve borrowed from
    Affordable housing 101 and how to get discounted land deals for your next new construction project
    How to find the “path of progress” of where homes will appreciate in your area
    Scaling your business with new construction homes instead of flipping houses
    Private money, hard money, and other creative financing methods to use when banks WON’T fund your deals
    And So Much More!

  • When is enough enough? When is it time to STOP investing in real estate? When you have a hundred units or a thousand? When can you step back and let the hard work and grind pay off so you can spend more time with your family, spouse, children, and loved ones? But maybe this is just the start of your real estate investing journey, so a better question would be: how to start investing when you DON’T have tons of money to get in the game? Whether you’re a couple of years away from early retirement or gearing up for your first rental, we’ve got you covered on this episode of Seeing Greene. 
    Full-time real estate investors David and Rob are back to answer your investor questions! This time around, live-caller Ethan wants to know when enough is enough. He’s built a big real estate portfolio, but his spouse is asking, “What’s the end goal?” Next, David and Rob share what’s going on in their own lives and the “perfect storm” that hit David head-on that could be headed your way. A young house hacker wants to know the best plan for his property after he moves out: rent by the room, turn it into a long-term rental, or go the short-term rental route. Finally, a homeowner with some sizable equity but no extra money asks if she should sell her low-rate primary residence and exchange it for some investment properties. 
    Want to ask David a question? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene. Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can jump on a live Q&A and get your question answered on the spot! 
    In This Episode We Cover:
    Why you need to start preparing your short-term rental for spring and summer break NOW
    When to start raising rates on last-minute guests (HUGE revenue boost)
    What you MUST include in your listing before it’s spring/summer break
    Amenities that any host can add to their home to bring in more bookings

    How to avoid parties at your property and guest red flags to watch out for

  • A bombshell NAR settlement could bring wide-sweeping changes to the housing market. After a snowball of NAR lawsuits, the realtor association agreed to settle for a whopping $418 million and make critical changes to how real estate agent commissions are paid and how competition can be upheld. This significantly impacts anyone buying or selling a home and has life-changing effects for every real estate agent and realtor in the country. The New York Times’ Debra Kamin joins us to break the story.
    Debra breaks down the enormous legal loss that NAR (National Association of Realtors) suffered last week and the impacts it will have on the housing market. First, we discuss the new agent commission rules, which may break the standard six percent fee that realtors are used to taking. These commissions are real estate agents’ livelihoods, and a new model that supports lower commissions could force many agents to leave the industry entirely. 
    We’ll also touch on the turbulent times NAR has faced recently, from sexual harassment scandals to changing leadership and, now, a massive settlement that could lose them more than half of their members. Will a new type of real estate agent form from the ashes of this century-old model? Or, could a brand-new way of buying and selling homes transform the housing market? Stay with us; we’ll give you the entire scoop.
    In This Episode We Cover:
    NAR’s massive settlement creating ripple effects across the real estate market 
    The new real estate agent commission rules that could shock an entire industry 
    Changes to the multiple listing service (MLS) that may open the market up to new competition 
    The future of buyer’s agents and whether or not they’ll remain a critical component to buying a home 
    Sexual harassment scandals, turbulent leadership, and recent NAR struggles 
    What the future of using a real estate agent could look like

  • Ready to escape the rat race and leave your nine-to-five behind? You’re tired of the early mornings, late nights, alarm clocks, and commuting. You want to go out on your own, create your own destiny, gain autonomy, and control your schedule. Can real estate help you get there? Definitely, but it won’t be the way you think. Those popular flipping shows on TV and influencer Instagram feeds love to show how easy and fun it is to be a full-time real estate investor. But is this reality?

There’s even one strategy they ALL agree is the best way to get started.
    But before you hand in your two weeks’ notice, you better listen up. The world of full-time real estate investing isn’t what it seems on the outside, and unless you’re willing to put in the work, you might as well stay at your job and invest on the side. Want to hear about the grind none of the investing gurus will tell you about? Stick around; we’re sharing it all in this episode.

  • Fix and flips have looked a lot alike for the past few years. You see the same countertops, wall colors, appliances, and flooring in almost every new flip. While it makes sense for many high-volume flippers to use the same “cookie cutter” recipe repeatedly, it may not get you the highest price on your house flip. If you want to start a bidding war on your next investment property, you’ll need to think outside the box, like George and Heather Bassett have.
    George and Heather aren’t your everyday house flippers. To start, they filmed this entire interview from inside a church-turned-luxury house flip. George and Heather want to make each home they flip stand out and feel unique to every prospective buyer who walks through it, and their recipe for success sure seems to be working. On a recent flip, they had over fifty showings in one weekend alone. So, what house-flipping tips do they have that could help YOU sell for more?
    From unique finishes to thinking of livability first, asking the house what IT wants, and staging the not-so-basic way, George and Heather deliver an absolute masterclass on how to turn your next fix and flip into a show-stopping, bidding-war-starting, beautiful property that could give you tens of thousands more in profit than what the everyday flipper is getting.
    In This Episode We Cover:
    Why “cookie cutter” flips AREN’T what buyers want in 2024 
    Inexpensive, “unique” additions that’ll make your fix and flip sell for more
    Asking the house what IT wants and keeping the character of historic homes 
    How to use “bold” renovations to start a bidding war on your next house flip 
    Financing your next fix and flip with hard money, private money, and…credit cards?
    The ONE thing that’ll help your home sell for TOP dollar (which most people skip)
    And So Much More!

  • Want to escape the rat race? To do so, you’ll need some serious investments. And if you want bigger and better cash flow or appreciation, commercial real estate is the place to start. But how do you find these bigger deals? Sure, it’s easy to log on to your favorite listing website and find a hundred houses to buy, but what about self-storage facilities, multifamily apartments, warehouses, and more? How do you find the BIG deals?
    On this Seeing Greene, we’re answering crucial investing questions so you can build wealth better and reach financial freedom faster. First, Real Estate Rookie guest Mike Larson calls in to ask how to find off-market commercial real estate deals. If you’ve ever wondered how to invest in commercial real estate, this is the place to start! Next, a BiggerPockets Forum poster asks for the best investment to “escape the nine-to-five rat race.” A short-term rental investor needs to know the best way to invest his home equity. Plus, we discuss why mortgage rates DON’T matter as much as you think they do!

  • A bad contractor could not only ruin your home renovation but cost you tens if not hundreds of thousands of dollars. Don’t believe us? Just ask Rico to the Rescue’s Rico León. Rico has spent years cleaning up contractor mistakes, making homeowners feel whole again after getting ripped off, lied to, and scammed by who they thought were reputable contractors. As a contractor himself, Rico knows the red flags to spot right away to tell if a contractor will take your money and run, and he’s sharing them with us today!
    This episode is crucial for ANYONE who owns a home, is looking to renovate one, or is just getting started in real estate investing.

Rico breaks down the common problems inexperienced contractors run into, the Ponzi scheme of payments to look out for, how to create a contractor contract so you protect yourself, and the mistakes you can prevent BEFORE you hire a contractor.
    Plus, we’ll get into the not-so-obvious red flags that only an experienced contractor will notice, what you need to check before you hire a contractor, the milestones to set up so you don’t get ripped off, and the conversation you must have with ANY contractor before work begins. Finally, Rico leaves us with four tips to help even the most inexperienced homeowner hire the right contractor.

    Red flags that point to a shady contractor who has their eyes on your wallet
    Writing your contractor contract so you stay legally protected during a renovation

  • The Fed has signaled something significant for mortgage rates. With inflation still rearing its head and the job market hot as ever, the Fed already has enough evidence to hold back on lowering the federal funds rate, which influences the mortgage rate you get on a home. So when will the Fed finally lower rates so we can escape this highly unaffordable mortgage market? Or, can the Fed pause for the foreseeable future as we enter a new era of high interest rates? Caeli Ridge, President of Ridge Lending Group, is here to help us answer these questions.
    Caeli works on getting investors mortgages every single day, so she has a solid pulse on the mortgage market. She gives us a mortgage rate update, explaining what today’s rates look like, when the first Fed rate cuts could come (sooner than you think!), and how a mortgage lender calculates your specific rate. She also gives some tips on navigating this high-rate environment and why merely looking at your mortgage rate as a deciding factor could cost you big time.
    As we wrap up, Dave will give his perspective on what the Fed is waiting for and the factors that MUST change before the Fed decides to proceed with a rate cut. He’ll also share a few tips on how to get ahead of the competition with today’s high rates and why these unique advantages won’t last long.

    In This Episode We Cover:
    How long we’ll have to wait for the Fed to finally cut rates 
    March 2024 rate update and the rate you can expect on your next mortgage
    What matters MUCH more than your mortgage rate when closing on a property
    LLPAs (loan-level price adjustments) and how to score a lower interest rate from your mortgage lender
    The crucial economic factors the Fed is watching to decide when to lower mortgage rates
    How to get ahead of the competition during a high-rate environment and buy when the masses are distracted
    And So Much More!

  • You hear us talk a lot about buying real estate, but what real estate deals are WE doing in 2024? Today, we’re pulling back the curtain on our portfolios, walking you through actual deals we’re doing, how much they cost us, how much they’re making, and why, surprisingly, one of us STOPPED buying real estate to focus on something that’ll make much more money. Want to know what it is? We’re about to give you every detail you need to repeat the real estate deals we’re doing!
    First, Rob will talk about his Pink Pickle…yes, you read that right. It’s the newest bachelorette party-themed short-term rental in Austin, Texas! This short-term rental has everything you’d ever need: a pink pickleball court, a pink dinosaur, a mysterious red button that you SHOULD NOT PRESS, and an above-ground pool. This property took a LOT of work, but it only happened because of a real estate deal gone wrong.
    Next, David gives a masterclass on how to make half a MILLION dollars in equity on one rental property. He also shows you how having an investor’s eye can allow you to TRIPLE the square footage of a home and skyrocket the rents, making you much more cash flow than you thought possible. And no one even wanted this property in the first place! How do you find these hidden deals? Stick around; we’ll show you!
    In This Episode We Cover:
    Whether to buy more doors or reinvest in your real estate portfolio in 2024 (and what we’re doing)
    Housing market headwinds that are stopping most investors and how to get around them
    Turning a house flip gone wrong into a cash-flowing short-term rental 
    How David turned a tiny house into a $1.3M triplex with a HUGE equity position 
    The BRRRRSTR strategy explained (buy, rehab, rent, refinance, repeat, short-term rental)
    Why you always check for extra square footage BEFORE you make an offer on a house 
    And So Much More!

  • Most real estate investors do a few deals a year if they’re lucky. But today’s guest was doing twenty to thirty real estate deals a MONTH. That’s right—not per YEAR, per MONTH. And he did it all while scaling his real estate business at lightning speed. The best part? He didn’t have to use his own money to get there—his deals were being funded completely by private partners, and if you stick around, you’ll know exactly how to do it, too!
    After closely observing investors while he was a real estate agent, Don’nell Greer got the hang of finding and tackling profitable real estate deals. After much analysis paralysis, he got his first deal under contract—an $80,000 home that needed some heavy sweat equity to make it profitable. With high rents and low home prices, Don’nell knew the deal would work, but he needed more money. Through a family loan, Don’nell realized the power of private money, and once he saw the possibilities, there was no turning back.
    Fast forward soon after, and Don’nell was borrowing hundreds of thousands of dollars from millionaire investors he met through his network. Thanks to the new source of funding, Don’nell was able to flip dozens of houses a month, making a life-changing business in the process. But it wasn’t all good news. Partnership problems, rising interest rates, and changing market dynamics forced Don’nell to make a hard pivot—a pivot you may have to make in the future!
    In This Episode We Cover:
    How to get past analysis paralysis and get your first real estate deal in the bag
    How to use private money to fund your real estate deals when you’re low on cash
    Flipping twenty-thirty houses a MONTH by scaling your real estate business 
    Taking a chance on tenants and why most landlords say “no” to some of the best renters 
    How Don’nell corrected course when rising interest rates put his flipping business at risk
    The power of coaching and mentorships and why you need a strong real estate community to succeed 
    And So Much More!

  • Want to double your real estate portfolio and bring in much more cash flow? What about using some of your untapped home equity to invest? Today, we’re showing you how to do just that on this episode of Seeing Greene, where we get into real estate partnerships, paying off rental properties, using home equity to invest, and the not-so-secret repeatable thirteen-percent return real estate investment. 
    Green means go, so we’re flooring it in this episode as David Greene and expert guest James Dainard bring some high-level investing tactics you can use to build wealth even faster. First, we get a question from Real Estate Rookie guest Matt Marcelissen, wondering how he can double his real estate portfolio by harnessing the power of partnerships. David and James give some rare advice on why you SHOULDN’T split things 50/50. Next, an investor wants to know if his low ROE (return on equity) rental is worth paying off. Then, what to do when you have home equity but can’t sell the house? And finally, James’ thirteen-percent return investment he’s using to pay for his kids’ college! 
    Want to ask David a question? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene. Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can jump on a live Q&A and get your question answered on the spot! 
    In This Episode We Cover:
    How to double your cash flow by using real estate partnerships the RIGHT way 
    Why splitting returns on your partnership 50/50 is NOT the way to go

    How to invest with home equity when you can’t sell a property 
    Why David looks for this type of housing market “potential” when buying properties
    Hard money investments that can make you double-digit returns

  • Want to turn your rental property into a cash-flowing machine? What about boosting your property’s equity by tens or hundreds of thousands? The “value-add” strategy can do all this and more, but you’ll need to know the right moves to make. Top real estate investors have been using value-add on their rental property portfolios for decades, turning lackluster rentals into financial freedom-producing properties, and you can do the same IF you know how to spot value-add opportunities.
    So, today, we’re showing YOU how to make MORE cash flow and explode your home equity by tweaking your rental properties in the right ways. Both David and Rob have done this numerous times across multiple properties. In fact, David even shares a real-life example of how he increased the cash flow on one of his rental properties by over $10,000/month thanks to an interesting strategy most rookie real estate investors would completely overlook.
    Not only that, Rob was able to turn his first Southern California home into a multifamily rental that hosts long, medium, and short-term tenants, and rakes in massive cash flow almost a decade after purchasing it. Whether you’ve got small, big, long, medium, or short-term rentals, you can use value-add to create more passive income and bigger equity gains. Stick around as we give away our secrets on the best value-add moves to make. 
    In This Episode We Cover:
    How to use the “value-add” investing strategy to make MASSIVE cash flow on any property 
    The two most common ways to add value to your rental property portfolio
    The value-add improvements to spot BEFORE you buy another rental property (most people miss this)
    Additions, ADUs, and other ways to add more doors to your rental property 
    Boosting your cash flow by converting your long-term rentals into short and medium-term rentals 
    What you MUST do BEFORE you start adding on to your rental property

  • Want BIG cash flow numbers? How about $400K/year cash flow? Would that be enough to set you financially free? For Amanda and David Fornelli, this is reality, and it’s all thanks to one very unique rental property investment. And even though these numbers are massive, Amanda and David aren’t that removed from being real estate rookies. Just five years ago, they didn’t own any rental properties and were W2 workers just looking for a way to make some extra income.
    After finding themselves in a real estate investing program, this power couple began flipping any house they could get their hands on in Southern California. Within three months, David had made twice as much from flips as he did at his day job, so he quit, and the rest is history. Now, they’re full-time investors, still flipping houses, but ALSO running a multimillion-dollar boutique hotel that’s making them hundreds of thousands of dollars a year in profit.
    In today’s episode, Amanda and David talk about leaving their jobs to flip houses full time, how they slowly realized that short-term rentals beat the short-term profits of house flipping, why they’re still investing in high-priced Sothern California, and the massive cash flow they’re making off their very first commercial real estate investment—a small, but very profitable boutique hotel.
    In This Episode We Cover:
    Making $400K/year from an unconventional type of rental property
    When it’s time to quit your job and become a full-time real estate investor
    Using the BRRRR strategy to make massive wealth gains WITHOUT investing your own money
    How to mitigate risk when doing high-priced house flips (especially as a beginner!)
    Raising private money and how to buy bigger, better real estate deals without using your own cash
    Short-term rental vs. hotel investing and why you CANNOT treat these as the same assets

  • Where’d all the cash flow go? More than ever, rental property owners are waking up to find less and less mailbox money coming in every month. This is doubly true for those who used low down payments to house hack and turned their properties into full-on rentals. So, what do you do if you have a rental property giving you low, no, or negative cash flow? Should you sell it and swap it for another investment or ride it out, betting on future appreciation gains? We’re giving our thoughts in this Seeing Greene!
    As always, David and Rob are here to answer your pressing real estate investing questions. But resident yacht tycoon James Dainard also brings his twenty years of investing experience to the show to help this week’s rookie real estate investors. First, our very own Noah Bacon asks what he should do with a negative cash-flowing house hack that has six figures in tax-free equity. Then, we ask a question everyone wants an answer to, “WTF is wrong with investors these days?” If you want to turn your house into a rental property, stick around because two more investors ask whether it’s worth it AND when you can start writing off those lucrative real estate tax deductions.
    Want to ask David a question? If so, submit your question here so David can answer it on the next episode of Seeing Greene. Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can jump on a live Q&A and get your question answered on the spot!
    In This Episode We Cover:
    Whether to keep or sell a rental property that’s losing money every month
    Appreciation vs. cash flow and why SO many new investors get this wrong
    How to minimize your chance of negative cash flow by buying in THESE areas
    Why some real estate markets appreciate while others rarely see price growth
    Whether you should turn your primary into a rental property or buy an investment property instead
    Real estate tax deductions and how long you have to wait to write them off

  • On a national level, Fannie Mae is predicting the multifamily market to remain subdued in 2024. Ever since interest rates began to rise, multifamily transactions have slowed considerably. Higher rates made profits fall, and as a result, buying and improving multifamily properties halted. And, with a massive lag in multifamily construction, new units were popping up left and right in already saturated markets, creating a race to the bottom for rent prices as multifamily operators struggled to keep their units occupied. But, the multifamily woes may be close to over.
    Kim Betancourt, Vice President of Multifamily Economics and Strategic Research at Fannie Mae, joins us to share the findings of a recent multifamily report. Kim knows that there are oversupplied multifamily markets across the country. Cities like Austin have become the poster child for what oversupply can do to home and rent prices. However, Kim argues that this is only a fraction of the overall housing market, and many markets are in need of more multifamily housing.
    So, if much of America is still struggling with having enough housing supply, shouldn’t rents be on an upward trend? Kim shares her team's findings and rent forecasts, explaining when rents could begin to climb, which multifamily properties will experience the most demand, and why we need MORE multifamily housing, not less.
    In This Episode We Cover:
    Fannie Mae’s 2024, 2025, and 2026 rent growth forecast for multifamily
    A “tale of two markets” and why the “oversupply” narrative isn’t the whole story
    Property classes and why B/C-class properties are seeing such strong demand
    The one metric that points to a growing or shrinking multifamily real estate market 
    Why so many millennials are “stuck” as renters and can’t become homeowners
    How rising rents could affect multifamily prices and boost valuations across the country
    And So Much More!
