Even if you are losing $500 per month which is ideally less than you'd pay in rent AND you get the other benefits of owning real estate like appreciation, value add equity, and the tax benefits.  

There must be a ton of capital on the sidelines, and investors are putting down more on deals for them to work.Factor in tax benefits, hedge on inflation, rents still cheaper than buying, and the investment is still compelling to some.There are deals out there, you just have to create relationships with brokers, and play the long game.

Not sure of the sentiment of everyone for Kris Krohn within the BP community but I’ve seen him say it’s not the benefit that you may think as you are beholden to other rules/laws that one would not be without a license.It does seem as though the cost of obtaining and maintaining a license coupled with the costs to have access to things such as the MLS would directly impact overall profits.

Here’s why it might be a smart move:Maximize ROI: With leverage, you can control a larger asset value with a smaller initial investment, potentially increasing your returns as the property appreciates.Preserve Liquidity: Keep your cash available for other investments or emergencies while still participating in lucrative real estate opportunities.Tax Benefits: Deductible mortgage interest and expenses can lower your taxable income, enhancing profitability compared to an all-cash purchase.If you have the means to buy with cash initially, you can later refinance to unlock equity for further investments or improvements.
