The BRRRR method is a great strategy — especially around here. There are so many great opportunities!

Comment or DM the word INVEST if you want me to send you a list of properties currently on the market that might work well with this strategy.

B — buy
R — rehab
R — rent
R — refinance
R — repeat

Let’s break it down…

01 — Buy a property.
Not just any property. A good rule of thumb is the 70% rule.
If you want me to send you a list of potential properties to analyze, comment or DM INVEST.

02 — Rehab the property.
Renovate the property to bring it up to it’s ARV (after-repair value) potential

03 — Rent the property.
Find people to rent out the property to generate income

04 — Refinance the property.
A cash-out refinance allows you to convert your equity to cash. DM me for a trusted lender recommendation who can walk you through this.

05 — Use that cash to repeat the process.

Comment or DM INVEST if you want me to send you a list of properties currently on the market that might work well with this strategy.

As always, if you have any questions about the market or are looking to buy or sell in SWFL, please DM me.

It would be my honor to guide you through the process.

I’ve been a for 5+ years, and I’ve got a lot to say about this. SAVE this post to refer back to later. 💾

As always, I’m not here to convince you it’s a good time to . But I am here to provide a different perspective to all of the scary headlines about . It’s really not all that bad.

Did you know that high interest rates MIGHT actually be beneficial to you 🤔

01 -- As I’m sure you’ve read/heard everywhere, the interest rates have helped to slow down the . Why does this matter to you? Less competition. You’re less likely to end up getting outbid and you’re more likely to be able to make contingent offers that actually get accepted.

02 -- I expect prices to go up once go down. Hear me out: When the interest rates go down, there will likely be an influx of in the . As demand goes up, so does price. And it’s likely that will appreciate at a higher rate than your interest rate will decline. In many cases, it’s actually more financially advantageous to buy a at a lower price with a higher interest rate than at a higher price with a slightly lower interest rate.

Determining whether its a good time to buy/sell will need to be a personalized conversation. There’s no one simple answer. And I’d love to set up a time to talk through the various considerations.
