Please stop with the clickbait titles. I used to love the unbiased videos on whats really going on in the market. Crash market fatigue is showing with most folks. Most are so tired of hearing about the worse even though it’s true. My $200,000 share holdings are down 17%

[@theTeslaking]

Yes, and unlike you, a good number of folks are raking in huge gains even in this downtrend, but such strategies are mostly successfully done by experts.

[@JosephMartin7226]

I like to have an asset manager review my daily market decisions for this exact reason: their vast experience in simultaneously going long and short, utilising risk for its asymmetrical upside, and laying it off as a hedge against the inevitable downward turns makes it nearly impossible for them to underperform. After working with a manager for almost two years, I've earned more than 85% of my starting salary.

[@cesarmurph]

How do I get in touch with one? Since 2022, my assets have been struggling, and I've been barely surviving.

[@JosephMartin7226]

‘Sharon Ann Meny’ is the licensed advisor I use. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment.

[@cesarmurph]

Just copied and pasted her on my browser and her page popped up immediately, thank you for saving me hours of researching.

[@AnnaOllsson]

I remember in 2007 when I was working in real estate seeing people buy homes new from builders with the intention of selling before close of escrow to a new buyer for profit. The crash was so brutal and fast that I remember seeing a lot of these units foreclosed on with the builder plastic still on the carpet.

[@HildaBennet]

Most people find it difficult to handle a fall since they are used to bull markets, but if you know where to look and how to maneuver, you can make a size-able profit. Depending on how you intend to enter and exit, yes.

[@PennyBergeron-os4ch]

This is precisely why I like having an asset manager look over my day-to-day market decisions: with their extensive knowledge of going long and short at the same time, using risk for its asymmetrical upside and laying it off as a hedge against the inevitable downward turns, their skillset makes it nearly impossible for them to underperform. I've been utilizing a manager for more than two years, and I've made over 85% of my initial amount/

[@bartlyAD]

How do I reach out to one? my assets have been struggling since 2022 and I’ve been holding on by the skin of my teeth.

[@PennyBergeron-os4ch]

Research and contact Rebecca Noblett Roberts and follow her directions.

[@PennyBergeron-os4ch]

I had to look up what seller finance was. You basically sign a legal contract with the seller to pay them an agreed monthly repayment plus an initial deposit until the entire debt is paid off. Like a bank loan but with the seller.

[@Multifamilystrategy]

100% correct!

High interest rates are the best times to go for seller financing if they’re a serious owner. Just have to find out who is legit trying to sell and who only has their property listed super high to see if they can cash out on the market. Don’t be discouraged by the ones who flat out say no or have aggressive terms on the seller financing

[@Multifamilystrategy]

[@timduncan8450]

How does one find deals that Are willing to seller finance? I am always hearing how cash is king and nice properties always go to the all cash offers or whatever is closest.

[@pupo-realtor66]

As a not really experienced real estate agent with only 5 years working in the sector, I was curious to know how he bought it without a down payment. From what I understand there was a downpayment, it just wasn't his, but there was (from an investor and a seller). Min 4:40 I've been trying to figure out how to buy a property without a down payment for long 5 years ... in the past (before the 2000s) it was easier. Nowadays I haven't figured it out yet but I hear there's a way, I just haven't figured it out yet What guarantee does he have that you will pay on time? If there is no collateral, no one lends money. If you don't have a car or another property with the same or greater value as the property you want to buy, no one in their right mind will lend you money. How will the seller assume a debt for you (whether credit or money) if you don't have a guarantee, such as an excellent score, salary or secure annual cash inflows? Or I simply didn't understand what he said he did.

[@roman618]

It doesn't add up. As an owner, why would I sell you without any money?

[@christopherpalmer4243]

Yeah, what collateral did he have to secure the hard money loan? Confusing

[@Ginger-g4b]

[@freelancerakram244]

​@@Ginger-g4bhu

[@Nic0Jesse]

The understanding is that the seller will recieve 12% on top of the selling price for the benefit of loaning the property. Essentially the seller was betting that he'll do well and get 12% premiums for selling the property and financing. If Cody didn't do well, then the seller takes back the property.

Just a small takeaway from the choice to refinance or to own outright. Owning a property outright could make you a target for predators in the event they have a case to sue you. The less equity you have the less reward for them.

[@Multifamilystrategy]

The most correct answer is create a separate holding company pay off the property and place a new mortgage against the property with the holding company. You owe yourself the debt but the property appears leveraged to predators. Just make sure you file that LLC in Nevada or Delaware

[@JustinMentionedIt]

What you mean? You can own it in an llc or a trust just bc you own it don’t mean anything outsides of no payments, payments or no payments you own it

[@Daniel-b1s3s]

The challenge is that whether you rent or own, there are unavoidable costs associated with maintaining a permanent residence-property taxes, insurance, and utilities like electricity, gas, and water. In places like California, where I currently live, the high cost of living has pushed many people to opt for alternatives. It’s not uncommon to see individuals living in tents to avoid property-related expenses, and the number of people I encounter who reside in their cars is truly surprising. It’s a sign of how extreme the situation has become.

[@G0SuBunnY]

I think his point to refinance the Ben Mallah way is he's not doing multi-unit, single family, and air B&B. Ben mall is doing Triple-NET (NNN) deals that scale quite considerably which means the taxes and etc are on another level of getting money. Although Ben has some residental communities, those are usually from what I can tell Elderly Section 8 niche's that offer some sort of tax write off. Hes also on top of his real estate by ensure the little things are taken care of.

Back in the day, when I purchased my first home to live-in; that was Miami in the early 1990s, first mortgages with rates of 8 to 9% and 9% to 10% were typical. People will have to accept the possibility that we won't ever return to 3%. If sellers must sell, home prices will have to decline, and lower evaluations will follow. Pretty sure I'm not alone in my chain of thoughts.

Deals on Wheels - where can I find this book for a normal price??! $45 used for 200 pgs. is the cheapest I could find. From there, it jumps to $160, $250 and on up! My libraries, nor it’s affiliates carry it. The authors website is down OR I have to be a member for $300 or something like that. Can I borrow your copy? (I’m reading his 2nd book on Kindle)

13:54 what are some ways to do this “lower cost of money”? Banks dictate the cost of their money, mostly take it or leave it, right? Sellers would have more flexibility but no more motivation to take a low rate?

[@jdarling5315]

You missed their whole approach man, seller financing. The motivation for below market terms for lending on the part of the seller is the desire to sell. If desire to sell = high, you can get a deal

[@michaelrobil7013]

So I’m confused, the word NO MONEY was used about 100 times but yet they put a million dollar down???

[@Luisvegabroker]

Congratulations Cody Davis and Christian 🤝 , I need to take the dive as well and do my first man 😎 let's keep in touch

[@Multifamilystrategy]

Let's do it

[@davidschulman7988]

Ya go ahead and buy that apartment building that is chock full of deferred maintenance with no money down. Wish you luck. Banks generally want 25 to 30 percent down for a reason. Where rates are now vs. the price there is no cash flow. Real eatate isn't what it was when rates were 3%. By the way never fall in love with your real estate.

[@Shepherdservices317]

My question is why do you need so much?? I feel they have enough to go live dream lives with people managing the properties. I need a few rentals and I'm going to the islands lol

[@Multifamilystrategy]

I bought a few rentals and found that is is actually not enough. To be fair we have more than we need but I think 25-50 units is enough to set someone up for life. We kept buying for the love of the game and we have become very very good at providing hosing for those in need so that is also very rewarding.

How do i find a mentor to teach me how to do the part that you didn't explain when you dont work at a brokerage or real estate agency?

[@Multifamilystrategy]

Being a broker or agent does not help being an investor. Totally different jobs. One does not relate much to the other

[@charlestonantoine2077]

Where are the best markets to start buying

[@ryanwinters8382]

What is your strategy with owners on mid sized portfolios who (without you even asking) say they wont hold paper.

[@Multifamilystrategy]

Always Deal then debt and equity. If you can't negotiate the debt then you will need to win on price.

[@ryanwinters8382]

​@@MultifamilystrategyI was offered a 23 unit off market property and on our 1st call in the 1st 10 mins the owner blurts out he wont hold paper. I made no reference to $ at all at that point, I was trying to learn about the property. I'm thinking of trying to build trust over some time and conversations to see if that will change. What would you suggest?

[@luketylerpdx]

Im not understanding how they use “no personal money” or you dont need money but then they need 1,000,000 down Where does that million come from? A loan? Sorry if its a dumb question i just dont understand

[@R0cketRed]

So just buy everything? With the owners money? How do you get a place from an owner that doesn't want to sell? So many things were just breezed over

[@UpFlip]

There's only so much we can cover in a short time. We barely scratched the surface of this topic. 😅

[@R0cketRed]

Well just ask them to go back to the beginning and explain in more detail how they started. So finding a great building that has let's say 6 rentals that you like, then what you just call the owner and how do you convince them to sell something that's not for sale and don't over pay? Also how'd they get financing especially in the beginning with only $3k in the bank like he says he started. It's just frustrating hearing video after video about how you can get things done after owning multiple places with tons of equity.

[@Multifamilystrategy]

We don't convince anyone to do anything. That wouldn't work. We meet with all the people who currently hold the real estate in our market and learn their story and their goals. From that sometimes they are adjusting their pieces and offer to sell or more often they see a deal that is not right for them but perfect for you and give you a call.

[@mylesdb]

My landlord recently attempted to sell the duplex I live in but let the listing expire. I am interested to own it but as a newcomer / first timer I don’t know how to navigate approaching the landlord, she wants to sell to buy another property so a sub2 negotiation seems tricky if she needs cash, I don’t think she can do seller financing either. Anyone willing to coach me on what I could say to my landlord?

[@intsccents]

These guys are the real mCcys long holders in real estate! my brother ows many comerical buildings and this is the mantality of real sucsessful people in the real estate industry . buy and hold.. i am 100% sure these guys will end up where they want to be but i am not sure they could do it in my market Los Angeles the deals would not be ( most likely ) visable.. Or at least i dont think so...

[@UpFlip]

Their buy-and-hold mentality is the key to real success in real estate, but we agree-LA might be a different challenge altogether!

[@Tunsgate123]

It only works with cheap financing. A 6 unit costs 1.2m But rents for £86.5k Mortgage would be 80k before any other costs. So it doesn’t work

[@Multifamilystrategy]

Nope if you have high interest but a great price it works or a higher price and low internet it works. If you lose on price and interest you just did a bad deal.

[@nonosquadgaming]

How do you buy any house without money?

[@Mastercookiee]

OK, it still don’t make sense to me though because you said you still needed 125K but you had no money so how did you get the other 125K from the money lender still with no money?

[@jazzpote4316]

He found another private investor willing to give this money. The reason the investor was ok is that he would win whether he makes the deal work or not. The investor charged him a high interest of 12% if the deal works out. If the deal doesn't worn out and he fails to repay the investor, then the property business is given to the investor who takes over. So, if the compound makes profit, the investor gets a 12% yield. If it doesn't, the investor owns the compound. Not bad.

[@Jump-2-the-moon]

What’s the take home profit for them? I understand it’s high net worth values but what’s the actual disposable income they’re making a year?

[@Jump-2-the-moon]

Never mind, they answered this question towards the end. They only pay themselves $60K a year… I’m not sure how that signifies success.
