Michael Albaum and Pierre Carrillo explore the differences between paying all cash for a property and using a mortgage. Mike demonstrates how each variable in the consideration effects the return. Through an example of a property that is listed at $250,000, they discuss how a minimal rent increases, or a small difference in interest rates can drastically change the cash-on-cash performance of the asset. They also discuss why which types of offers are more attractive to sellers and ways that you could mix these approaches to purchasing property. This conversation provides valuable insights for real estate investors weighing the pros and cons of either approach.
