Quote from @Mike Klarman:

House hacking means living in the place you are fixing up or let's say you have a triplex and you live in one unit and rent out the other two. 

So, RE has an expense to it and capital is a very, very important but it is not the only variable.  But to get going, someone has to pick up the financial responsibility of the downpayment and holding costs.

Got it! Thank you for breaking that down. I didn’t realize that also applied to multi-family units. 😃😃😃

I am just starting out myself and I find that wholesaling is harder than I thought. I have foreclosure lists and I have been doing ALOT of door knocking. I have heard many people say that I will get alot of "No's" before I get a yes. It has been very frustrating, but I am determined to keep going.


 Definitely tough starting out! I do expired listing calls for one of the agents in the Charlotte area and do a finders fee if they decide to relist, but I have the opportunity first to buy it. In the first 3 weeks, I'm buying my second house to flip on hard money and I have one that the agent list on the market for a client looking to relist. 

It's all about being creative! Listenign to some of Pace Morby's talks can get your mind thinking!


 I’ve never thought about the expired list. That’s really smart. Would you mind sharing how you determine your finder’s fee?

My husband and I are retired military. We live in New Braunfels and are starting our real estate journey in the area. We would love to network and meet our future partners 😉  We are interested in wholesaling for now, but open to rentals wraps and sub tos as well. Let us know how we can assist you as well.

I agree, this is really good information. Waiting for part 2
