1. There are countless strategies for buying rental properties. Long-term, short-term, business, residential, and other options. You can begin your research and do your homework to gain as much knowledge as possible.
2. A clear investing strategy should be decided upon and developed based on item #1. Multifamily homes are something we always suggest. The study is a lot.
3. For the year, set a goal. Think about a "unit" goal (8 rental units), a "value invested" goal (1,000,000 in total invested in properties), or a "process" goal. (submitted 100 offers this year).
4. Analyze your available investment capital in terms of dollars. You will require some cash for unforeseen expenses even with an OPM plan.
5. Do some market and geographical research. Although you can invest everywhere, not everything is available to you everywhere. Find a place that fits your investing objectives, then become an authority on that market.
6. Attend a real estate group, go to your market, and network. Find a core of neighborhood specialists by getting to know people.
7. Discover the right techniques for rental property analysis. Not only "rent minus mortgage" is an option. Make our Cash Flow Analysis Matrix your trusted companion.
8. Find a mentor who has accomplished what you want and where you want to do it. Speak to them. Take every opportunity to learn.
9. Get involved with a group of other investors. Study their accomplishments and mistakes. Pose inquiries. Teamwork is preferable to working alone.
10. Look at a LOT of deals. The more you analyze, the more you'll learn, the more you'll offer, and the more times you'll be accepted.
