His tenant is paying for the loan. Paying off a loan given at such a low interest rate is a noob move. He knows better than to use cash to pay off a loan early. He will instead invest it at an average of 7 percent compound interest and let his tenant pay the loan over time. :)

@@JV-mk3bl Well said

[@stuff5109]

​@@JV-mk3bl You are correct that you don't want to tie up your money in real estate when interest rates are low. Unlike the average Joe, Graham's goal wasn't to buy this place to live in it, or even flip it. He saw it as rental property. He probably needs tenants willing to pay $4K/month to break even. Being a landlord is too much work for most people. Title should have been "How I got all of my money out of a rental property" but then no one would have watched.

He really just explained why Cash Out Refinance is a good strategy when property values are increasing. Normally I'd ask him why not just sell the property outright, but if this is a rental he can't do that. So instead of letting that money sit in the property and do nothing, he took it out and can invest in other things. His only risk is that instead of selling outright, he takes the refinance, the property value declines, and he's left underwater on his loan.

Right, especially when the real estate prices are SKY-ROCKETING in the L.A. area. He said, that within a YEAR the value of the property increased with 100,000+ dollars (+15%). Imagine what the property will be worth in 30 Years (when the mortgage is paid in full). To put into perspective, the playboy mansion was bought for 1,1 million dollars in -79 and 45 years later sold for 100 million dollars.

Max Maher I'm hoping to do the same thing. Out of everything Graham said in the video, the most important part to me was when he talked about his offer to get the house. He offered no hassle purchase (Meet Kevin talked about this too in a way with a direct to owner check and if he walked away the owner keeps the money). But you gotta really know how to read a building for value (and I don't 😂 not yet anyway) I'm in a 4 apartment building with a store front in NYC so it might be hard but I prob go for it. Plus the owner owns the building outright so he could be the bank if he wants. For him he knows he gets an immediate deal, and I get an affordable building (well for NYC anyway).

[@shiningyrlife]

Basically from how I understand it is: 1) Have some down payment. 2) If you can find a good deal, buy it, remodel if need, then find tenants to pay for it. 3) Refinance later with a lower rate, and if the new appraisal finds the house appreciates, you have equity and some $ differences. 4) Just have tenants pay for it. You owe the house at the end while the mortgage is being paid by someone else. It is a paper game. The trick is getting a good property in an area that will have the property increase appreciation, this helps minimize the expends.

This is what I mean a real " buy a home with $0". Of course, after the financial crisis, government has tightened the rules of borrowing. Nothing down is only a dream now unless you can borrow money from the private lender at a reasonable rate. Finally you can also make money with your hard labor work or from social media like KZbin with your intelligent creations.

[@milkncookie]

I like the idea but to explain this to those who don't understand. This isn't a net income situation, it's purchasing a property at lower than market value, then refinancing for a bigger loan from the bank (possibly lower interest) and now using that property as collateral. This allows you to get back out the inital down payments/costs invested into that property. Do it only if you understand what you're going to do with the difference, otherwise you're better off just paying down your loan for most nonreal estate people.

Very well said. This makes sense because I can reinvest into other areas at a higher return than I borrow for 30 years! If the money did nothing, or I'd spend it on cars and penthouse apartments...then it wouldn't work.

Sorry if I'm misunderstanding, but even with the better interest rate aren't you still going to end up paying the bank more money over the life of the loan by refinancing for the higher amount? or is that just an accepted loss because the money will be used in better places elsewhere?

That really depends on what his new mortgage to rent ratio is. He probably spent like 10k in refi fees and pulled out another damn near 250k, even with a lower interest rate that cost him quite a bit on his ratio, he has also hiked his property taxes by 40-ish%. When all the math shakes out it may have been a very expensive enterprise, that didn't provide him with a lot. However if his goal was to keep cash free for other investments or to pay off investors or loans on other deals (and the ratio approaches 1/1 or better) then yeah, this could have been a fucking brilliant move. All depends on his goals, the ratio, and his situation; at least from what I can see.

Robert Aylor If you have no liability from doing this in an c-corp it may be a good idéa as you suggest. But it seems as if he is insisting on people gambleing with their savings and lives to do do the same. He never states what would happen if the house turned out the foundation was faulty or if for some unforseen reason it was only worth half of the price. The downside could be huge. Then he needs cash too pull from somewhere else since you can’t just refinance to pay off the mortage.

Im trying to point out that in my humble opinion that he "makes it seem" as if it's a sure thing, that the house will appreciate.

Sorry if this seems too simple... But I would love a video of exactly how you went about rate shopping. Did you write emails to the new bank showing another banks interest rate and having them beat it? Over the phone, in person, or all online? How long did the whole process take? Did some banks want to pre-underwrite and do lots of work for a pre-approval? Did you send out multiple requests at the same time or wait for each bank to finish before moving to the next? Thank you!!

Rate shopping is the same as shopping around for insurance. You take your Declaration page and bring that to another insurance agent and they beat your price. Or cars... same scenario. Alot of this can be done over the phone and with the few clicks of buttons, emails are sent and within a few hours you have a bunch of quotes.

[@MikeySauls]

Thanks for the info! Appreciate it! Also, would you start trying to rate shop the moment the sellers accept your offer? Can you start beforehand or probably not since the bank needs to know the exact amount of the loan? In hot market like California, I feel like there's pressure to move through the process as fast as you can since there's so many competing people. Would you expect to finish rate shopping under a week? Thanks again!

it is not difficult to understand.

As long as your house value increases, you can refi your house with a loan bigger that covers your previous loan with the delta to your pocket. Now the delta from loan gets him back the money he put in and then he rented out the property to cover his mortgage.

He will have renters in the duplex paying off the new loan.

[@BaioWithMayo]

As far as the explanation goes in the video, his initial investment is all that he is stating he got for free. When most people buy property, even as rental properties, the biggest hit is the down payment, which cant be recouped monthly unless they have a golden deal like this. So Graham was able to do 2 refinances which payed him back his down payment and remodeling cost. Now he has a renter in 1 or both units (cuz idk if thats where he is currently living) that, due to his research, he knows will cash-flow and pay down his mortgage. So in the end, he is still paying +600k for the property (i think) but the money that is actually paying that down is his rental income, which you can think of like a dividend from a stock, so he just reinvests that into the property, and therefore is literally playing with the house's money. *ba da chh*

Assuming he keeps the house for 30 years the appraised value will either increase or it will decrease. In the event that decreases it will never decrease to the point of becoming 0. In the meantime though he has rented out for 30 years. Do the math at the meager amount of $12,000 a year * 30 years dot-dot-dot that's still $360,000. So technical if the house were two devaluate during those 30 years he would still have a $360,000 buffer. However that scenario is quite unlikely to ever occur. Furthermore I was using a very meager $1,000 a month rental income which I highly doubt is all that he is getting for this place. It's likely more like 3 to $4,000 a month so just multiply that 376000 by 3 or 4 times and that put some way ahead of the game in the event the property became worthless over the 30-year. And remember one thing in the end regardless of which way the property value goes he still has the house and whatever equity that house has now become which is 100% his after 30 years. It's not a losing situation. I would die to do this kind of stuff myself granted it still takes money to make money

[@SueYisoSueet]

Hi Samantha, incase you still wanted to understand this situation, I'll try to explain the best I can. Graham initially puts $230K of his own cash into the house in order to purchase and renovate it. As the value of his his house grew, he took his increased home valuation to a bank for a refinance, where the banks say, okay your home is worth more now, so we can risk giving you a larger loan. The reason why banks do this is because it's generally a win-win situation for them. If the homeowner pays their mortgage, their profit is the interest on the 30 year mortgage. If the homeowner for whatever reason cannot and has to foreclose, the bank owns the property, and can sell it for more than the loan they handed out, since the value of the home will likely continue to grow over time. Then the bank's profit is whatever the house sells at minus the mortgage still left on the house. All Graham cares about is that he has 0 of his own cash tied up in that house. His down payment and reno cost $230K of his own cash. Now, if you imagine the bank actually handing him ~585K in cash, for his refnance, he uses 438K of that to pay off the original mortgage, and now has 145K cash left in his pocket, so the total cash he now has tied up in the house is 230K-145k = 85K. A year later, the value of his house appreciates much further, so he goes to the banks again sees increased worth of the house and is willing to give him a larger loan of 675K. If you again imagine that they just paid him in cash, he utilizes 585K to pay off his 1st refinanced mortgage, and is left over with $90K (he said 85 so I don't know if my numbers are exact), which is roughly equal to the 85K he still had tied up in the house. Therefore, in terms of cash investment he put in, he was able to make it all back within 2 years due to recognizing a good house within a good neighborhood at a relatively low price. Since he now has the $230K back, he can utilize this amount to purchase another property where he can restart this process. Not to meniton, during this time, he also has renters who are usually charged more than the mortgage payment, so he's also making a profit while renters pay down his mortgage.

So its free because: 1. all monies invested were returned during the refinance 2. the remaining balance on the mortgage (and annual taxes) will be paid by the occupant of the property + a monthly stream of income to your pocket. Now what happens if it sits and you cant rent it out?

[@AlexNasatka]

It is wise to keep a cash reserve in order to continue making mortgage payments during a vacancy (which is inevitable at some point in the rental business). If the property is still sitting vacant for an extended period of time in a hot market, either there is some sort of "red flag" that is discouraging potential renters, or your asking rent is too high.

So he got the original loan of the 435k from a bank to get the house to begin with. He renovated it and got it appraised and got another loan of the nearly 600k. He payed the first loan with the new loan and the extra is essential money in his pocket since there's nothing left to pay. The extra 145k is essentially free money. Time went on and he went looking for a better interest rate, found one he liked, the bank got someone else to appraise it and he got yet another loan. This new one payed the one he previously had and he was able to keep yet another 85k which meant he broke even with a smaller interest rate. All that's left is to pay off the mortgage for the remainding 30 years and the house is his for free. It's sonething I would not have come up with but it's damn smart. For short, he got a loan, got a new loan that payed the old loan and he was able to keep some of the money, got yet another loan to pay the previous loan and this new one not only meant he broke even, it was lower interest rate

@@rkgoals3447 He bought the home, spending X amount of his own money, with the bank loaning the rest. After renovating a home, the value of a property will always increase, so he went to a second bank for a loan on the mortgage, and after appraisal, the value of the home was MORE than the original loan. He used the second loan to pay off the first loan, and since it was higher than the original, there was money leftover, which he pocketed. Some time later, due to the growth in the location the house was in, the houses value increased because its location was desirable. So he again went to another bank for a loan, and after appraisal, it was also greater than the second loan. So he used the third loan to pay off the second loan, and the extra money went into pocket. Now, you could essentially just do this over and over, but the downside is that your mortgage will get larger and larger...and you must FULLY pay this mortgage off before the house is completely yours. If you can't pay your mortgage, you will eventually lose the house, and the bank that you owe that mortgage to will now own the house. This is why banks are even willing to do this. They want your monthly money (from the mortgage) and the opportunity to own your house if you fail to pay. I believe banks also get loans from the government for giving loans to people so there's that incentive as well. Paying off those original loans with other loans was more about getting money back into his pocket, essentially replacing any money he'd spent on the property. As far as his bank account is concerned, that money never left, but he now has that property. Shopping for the lowest rate before the 3rd loan was about minimizing the amount of money he'd have to spend per month towards that mortgage. This makes it cheaper to own per month, and when he turns it into a rental property, means more money into his pocket per month as opposed to the banks. Even though the first two loans to pocket money was a very quick return of investment, the money he makes over time isn't as lucrative. It's going to trickle in. But here's the thing, he'd essentially be pocketing several thousand per month, from a property, that at this point, he never came out of a pocket for. It's free real estate. Do this 5 times and you could potentially have $15,000 "trickle in" every month (assuming $3k mo. rent) and any money earned doesn't go to anyone but him.

would be cool if you could talk one day about the Homestead act...and property tax. Interested to hear your thoughts on these things. In my opinion we are not truly free until we have no property tax.

[@GrahamStephan]

I have no problem with property tax. Someone needs to pay for roads, street lights, etc.

[@alexorassa5477]

@@GrahamStephan agree with you here. I think there are other ways of paying instead of taxation by force. it can be truly voluntary and law of nature will work its magic. also decentralize systems like bitcoin will enable new things possibly you and I have not thought of yet
