Another opportunity to learn about positive cash flow investing in affordable parts of the US

Can you achieve positive cash flow in the first year? Yes, if you put enough down when purchasing the rental property, such as 20%. The lenders like that as well and make it easier for you to qualify as a non-owner occupied investor. But, if you can still get 90% financing (10% down), you can achieve breakeven cashflow in one or two years and that is pretty darned good. These are rental areas with reliable sources of renters (supply and demand is basically balanced, but in favor of demand, so there are more renters looking for housing than available single family houses) and non spectacular market appreciation (3-5% per year just on or slightly ahead of inflation). Both of these conditions are actually good for the long term investor. We’re so over the attempted FAST FLIPPING of real estate properties, aren’t we?

 

I’ll be out of town on May 6, but will have a group of blog readers attending this workshop. Want to join in?
