How Much Should You Pay for A Property?


Listen Later

One of the questions we get asked a lot is how to determine the amount you should pay for a property.

The right purchase price will enable you to minimize risk and maximize profits.

Many investors struggle to find the perfect formula, often oscillating between paying too much or trying to get properties for pennies on the dollar. However, the key is to strike a balance and adhere to a consistent set of criteria.

In this episode, Heather and I break down our tried-and-true formula of buying at 50% of the anticipated resale price and discuss how to adjust based on market conditions and property quality.

We reveal the strict guidelines we apply in our business to ensure consistent profitability and how we keep emotions out of investment decisions.

We also reveal the minimum profit threshold we aim for in all our transactions.
