Rick Hoogendoorn and Ralph Case ran the numbers in their recent book - a $500,000 rental house paid off entirely by tenants beats a $100,000 RRSP after 30 years... tax-free (assuming no appreciation) Rick Hoogendoorn and Ralph Case, co-authors of the book One More House, join Cameron Manning to break down the real estate RSP, a strategy that uses one rental property instead of a registered retirement plan. They cover leverage, inflation, why the current market dip is a buying window, and how to structure a joint venture even without capital. Key takeaways: - A rental property paid off by tenants can beat a traditional RRSP, even with zero appreciation - The Canadian dollar has lost about 95 percent of its purchasing power since 1915, which is a big reason real estate values climb - Leverage is the real advantage real estate has over other investments - Don't over-leverage as you get closer to retirement age - Find your joint venture partners before you find the deal, not after Timestamps: (00:00) Meet Rick Hoogendoorn and Ralph Case, co-authors of One More House (00:57) The vision behind One More House (02:00) Ralph's childhood story, how one house saved his family (03:00) Rick's lawn mowing story and getting into real estate (04:29) Money as a battery, 95 percent of the Canadian dollar's value gone (06:19) Why real estate really goes up, it's not the house (07:19) The Real Estate RSP explained (08:00) RRSP vs Real Estate RSP, the full math breakdown (10:15) Why the current market dip is a buying opportunity (13:13) Why we panic when real estate goes on sale (16:40) Leverage, the difference real estate has over an RRSP (18:41) Building a portfolio without over-leveraging (21:51) A joint venture partner's real story, mortgage-free and traveling (26:10) Should you wait for interest rates to drop (30:20) Is it too risky to keep investing at 65 (32:15) How to mitigate investment risk (34:00) The biggest fear new investors have, dealing with tenants (37:33) Property management, hire it out or do it yourself (39:36) Real estate vs precious metals (44:00) How to joint venture with no capital (49:21) Rick's strategy, find partners before you find the deal (51:49) The first action to take after this episode About the guests: Rick Hoogendoorn is a real estate investor, rental apartment developer, and international speaker with a background in insurance and financial planning.
