Multifamily Investing Made Simple Anthony Vicino and Dan Krueger

Step 1... buy your first property. Step 2... make money. 

Unfortunately, it's not that easy. Real estate investing is NOT a get rich quick game. But, it is a get rich for sure game. 

A lot of new investors jump in head first, without realizing just how much work it takes to be an active real estate investor. And that's just to keep the property afloat, if you're wanting to start making profit, you're going to have put in even more work. If none of this is of interest to you, passively investing in real estate is probably the right path for you. But, if you're ready to get to work... here are the top 10 ways to make money off of your first investment property.

Equity or Cashflow? Which would you rather have right off the bat for your deal?
Cash flow makes you rich, but equity makes you wealthy. Here's the deal though... equity is worthless if you have no way to transform it into a source of cash flow. It's essentially the chicken and the egg scenario, which one comes first? Can you have a source of cash flow without first having the equity to build that source? 
Find out on this week's episode of Multifamily Investing Made Simple.

You cannot save your way to wealth. 

Our whole lives we've had the importance of saving your money INGRAINED into us. It's part of our lives now, right? Save your money, so that one day you can quit your job, retire, and live off your savings. 

Well it won't work. 

Maybe it worked some time ago. But the system is not running the same as it was in the past. Saving your money is simply no longer enough. Even high-yield savings accounts will just barely net you anything after inflation these days. That's the bad news. Here's the good news...

Instead of working for your money and saving it, you can have your money work for you. DO SOMETHING WITH IT. Don't just let it sit in some bank account. Here's how.

On paper, vacancy seems like a simple concept. Are there people living in your units? 

But it's a little bit more complicated than just that. There are two types of vacancy... Physical and Economic. Now obviously, you don't want either. But, is one worse than the other? 

First let's breakdown the difference between the two:

Physical vacancy is a term that most are familiar with. It's when your unit(s) are physically vacant. Meaning nobody is living there and paying rent. 

Economic vacancy is a little bit more dangerous because it often catches people off-guard. In this situation, you DO have people living in the units, but you're not collecting rent from them, for whatever reason. They could be refusing to pay until something is fixed. They could be constantly asking for an extension. Or they could just be flat out dodging your calls and letters. 

When you're looking to purchase a property, one of the first things you're going to want to look at is the building's vacancy. And there are several ways to find out exactly what the situation is, and if it's a hot mess that you want to avoid. 

So check out this week's episode of Multifamily Investing Made Simple, where we make vacancy simple.

If real estate is on your list... you're wrong. 

While real estate is a great investment, if you're just getting started in it, or in investing in general, you may want to pump the brakes a bit. There are several other areas that you can invest in to better set yourself up for success. 

And they all begin with you. 

Yeah, it's a little cheesy. But investing in yourself is the best investment you can make. And these are the top 3 ways that you can do that. 

First, self awareness. This is THE superpower that you want to hone. Understanding how you work, your strengths and weaknesses, is key to finding success. If you're great with numbers, but terrible with people... that's totally fine. Go out and find someone who is a marketing wizard. Don't try and be that guy or gal that does it all. 

Second, education. We can't state this enough, but you need to invest in your education. Now, this doesn't mean you have to go get some form of higher education. It's a lot more simple than that. Go out and find as many books, podcasts, and YouTube videos on whatever it is you're looking to accomplish. And don't be afraid to copy from those who are successful. If it worked for them, it can work for you. 

Third, network. Your network in real estate is tool belt. You will need it for EVERYTHING. Raising capital, managing properties, repairs, value-add, leasing, legal work, accounting... literally everything you can think of can be made so much easier with the right network. And we mentioned it before, but finding a great partner(s) is going to be key. 

Once you've invested in these 3 things, collect on those returns and get started in real estate.
