John Q and his wife need a home, they figure they will extend themselves a little by paying $600 more a month due to higher rates (maybe they keep their vehicle longer than expected), their new home builder gave them a rate buy down and they had their closing costs covered etc etc and the homebuyer feels good about their purchase.

Gasoline is worth about $20/gallon to me, give or take.So I may not like that they're asking me to pay $7, but in reality, it's so valuable to me to get where I need to go so easily, I'm going to pay it happily and be grateful I can get where I need to go in a comfortable vehicle with air conditioning and a podcast and my phone connected to bluetooth so I can talk to anyone I want.Getting the bank to lend me money to purchase a small business (a rental home) is so valuable.

If I am understanding this correctly, the accurate way to describe the BRRRR method is not to say that you get your cash back out of the property; but rather it gives you a vehicle to leverage your cash flowing debt to acquire more cash flowing debt?
