  • First Home Layaway Program: A Family Path to Homeownership

    In this insightful episode of The Mr. Mortgage Show, Mark Eitel introduces a forward-thinking strategy known as the First Home Layaway Program, designed to help parents and grandparents pave the way for their children's future homeownership.

    This approach involves using equity from their own homes to purchase a rental property in a desirable area. The rent from tenants covers the property's expenses until the child or grandchild is ready to take over, at which point the property is sold to them with a significant gift of equity, often eliminating the need for a down payment.

    Join us as Mark breaks down the steps, benefits, and considerations of this family-focused investment strategy.

  • Rent-Vesting vs. House-Hacking: Weighing Your Real Estate Investment Options
    In this week's Mr. Mortgage Show, Mark Eitel takes a critical look at the rising trend of "rent-vesting," a strategy that encourages renters to purchase investment properties in markets outside their living area.

    While proponents see it as a viable option for those unable to afford homes locally, Mark argues that this approach is not only risky but potentially disastrous. Instead, he champions the safer and more cost-effective strategy of house-hacking: purchasing a primary residence, living in it for at least 12 months, and then moving on to buy another while renting out the previous one.

    Join us as Mark breaks down why starting small and local is a smarter way to build a property portfolio and how dropping the ego to buy within one's means can lead to greater financial success.
