“BRRRRing” His Way to Financial Independence EVEN in a Tough Housing Market

Can you still find great deals in today’s cutthroat housing market? Of course! But you may need to go off the beaten path. Rookie investor Karl Denton looks beyond the MLS (multiple listings service), focuses on undervalued and distressed properties, and even does his own home renovations to create value. If he can do it, YOU can, too!

Welcome back to the Real Estate Rookie podcast! Karl has a superpower—finding hidden gems that other investors overlook. And he’s not doing anything that you can’t. Even as a full-time firefighter, he still finds time to attend meetups, go to foreclosure auctions, build his own lists, and contact homeowners about their properties. So far, this strategy has allowed him to find, buy, and fix three properties in three years!

Want to replicate his success? Tune in as Karl walks you through each step of the BRRRR method (buy, rehab, rent, refinance, repeat). Along the way, you’ll learn where to find undervalued properties, how to manage out-of-state renovations, and when to do a cash-out refinance. You’ll also hear about Karl’s big pivot from long-term rentals to short-term rentals and the huge cash flow boost that came with it!
