Portfolio Loans 101 for Real Estate Investors

Most real estate investors initially use conventional financing options to acquire their rental property portfolio. However, when they hit the limit of conventional loans they can obtain, they may switch to portfolio loan products to continue acquiring properties. Additionally, when doing certain types of partnerships, it may be beneficial to consider portfolio loans.

In this mini-class, James covers the basics of portfolio mortgage financing for real estate investors.

Low Down Payment Financing Options for Real Estate Investors

Real estate investors often believe that minimizing their down payment leads to higher returns. This is partly true since a lower down payment means higher leverage, which amplifies returns. However, returns can be amplified both positively (when returns are positive) and negatively (when returns are negative or things don't go as planned).

Although there may be additional low-down creative financing options available, there are a few traditional financing options that require a "low down payment." In this mini-class, we will cover these options.

Property prices and interest rates are currently high, while rents are not keeping up. Achieving cash flow has become even more crucial and challenging than ever, despite our 88 strategies to maximize it.

One common question that arises is whether it is better to purchase rental properties with 20% down payments or to invest in stocks. Buying rental properties with 20% down allows you to use leverage, which can significantly magnify both good and bad returns. Therefore, selecting the right investment property is crucial to your success or lack thereof.

To be fair, you could also leverage yourself by investing in stocks to a lesser degree. However, we won’t be discussing this in this particular comparison class.

Owning rentals requires a more active approach than passively investing in stocks. Is the extra work worth the extra effort? How much better or worse is it?

In this special class, James will compare the two strategies across 300 US markets, as the numbers differ depending on local market prices, rents, and income. Which strategy - 20% down or stocks - leads to a higher net worth? Which gets you to financial independence faster? Which is safer, and which carries more risk? And much more.

After attending this class, you should have a clearer understanding of whether you should seriously consider saving up 20% down payments to acquire up to 10 rental properties or take the easier route of passively investing in the stock market.

Is Creative Financing Really Nothing Down?

Every real estate investor has heard stories of the amazing deals that can be found with creative financing, often involving instant equity from buying significantly below current fair market value with nothing down. While these deals do exist, they are not typical. So, what can an investor reasonably expect when it comes to creative financing deals that require no money up-front?

In this mini-class, James tackles this question head-on and examines whether lease-option, subject to, owner financing, and other popular creative financing deals are truly nothing down or if they require some money up-front.

Improving Cash Flow on Properties You Already Own

Nothing Down Financing Options for Real Estate Investors

Some real estate investors are obsessed with investing in real estate with no down payment. For some, it is a practical necessity because they don't have the funds for a down payment. For others, it's about boosting their return on investment.

Although there may be other local options and creative financing options available, there are two primary "no down payment" options for traditional financing. In this mini-class, we will cover these two traditional "no down payment" options.

Property prices and interest rates are high, while rents are lagging. Cash flow is both more important and harder to achieve than ever, even with our 88 strategies to improve and maximize it.

Another question common rises to the top of the list: I’m going to buy an owner-occupant property with 5% down first, but then… should you put 20% down when acquiring your rental properties, or should you save up a little more and put 25% down even if it means a slightly slower acquisition pace?

Putting 25% down does get you a slightly better interest rate and because you’re borrowing less cash flow is slightly better too. Will that make up for having to wait a little longer saving up for slightly larger down payments?

In this special class, James will conduct a thorough comparison of the two strategies across 300 US markets, as the numbers vary depending on your local market's prices, rents, and income.

Which strategy—20% down or 25% down—gives you a higher net worth? Which gets you to financial independence the fastest? Which is the safest, and which has the most risk? Plus much more.

After attending this class, you should have a much clearer understanding of whether you should seriously consider taking the extra time and effort to save up 25% down payments or push to acquire as quickly as possible with 20% down payments when acquiring up to 10 rental properties.
