Listen Later

In this real estate mini-series, host Shiva Dhanasekar is joined by experienced realtors Ramu Velu and Nithin Thomas to discuss real estate investing mindsets. The six-episode series is filled with valuable tips, advice, and mindsets that will inspire you to take the leap into real estate investing.

In this particular episode, the trio emphasizes the importance of understanding personal goals when investing in real estate. They discuss how single-family homes are a popular rental choice among investors because they want to know the potential Return on Investment (ROI) after expenses, and how cash flow is important in determining ROI. Additionally, the speakers shed light on how real estate investments, like those of McDonald's, appreciate over time, providing a hedge against inflation.

Moreover, owning a home is an important part of the American dream, providing a sense of ownership and pride that other investments do not. The government provides FHA loans to help first-time and young homebuyers purchase homes when they cannot afford them. Furthermore, the speakers explore the various avenues for investing in real estate, including single and multi-family homes, warehouses, short-term rentals, and more. They explain the distinction between commercial and residential properties, as well as the difference between single-family and multi-family homes.

Noteworthy Quotes from the Episode

  • [02:41] "Something interesting I heard was the idea that McDonald's is not a business in the food industry. It's a real estate company." - Shiva Dhanasekar
  • [05:22] "The value of your land keeps going up. Right? So the value of your business keeps going up. So although your cash flow is relatively consistent, the value keeps going up. And that's 1 of the main reasons why a lot of people are very interested in real estate." - Ramu Velu
    • [08:55] It's real easy to brag about the number of homes you have rental units you have or something. Because it's more tangible to people. Well, I live in a home. I have 1 home. Wow. You have 3. Tell me more." - Ramu Velu
    • [10:24] Shiva: "So do you guys think, at any point, we might switch in in society to more digital real estate?" Ramu: "Truth be told, I don't know what that is. Like, if it's digital, does it mean it exists?"
