We started as 2 average-salaried employees working as engineers for 12 years.
In 2017, we decided that it was time to go full throttle towards financial freedom, and did a ton of research on what investments to go into.
Today, we own multiple cashflowing rental properties in the United States (US) collecting 6 figure rent checks annually, despite living halfway across the world from the US.
Being remote landlords, we built teams that we trust to buy and manage our properties in the US, and developed systematic processes to mitigate risks.

Buying cheap Akiya houses in Japan, is it worth it?
50% vacancy, never ever (not in the countryside) 10-20% ok, but not every second day an other tenant is there paying.
Yes because it’s possible to lower taxes without large amounts of capital…. These business guru’s forget that most people don’t have the money for that
Hey @holdeenyo8914, thanks for your comments. If you refer to our earlier videos, one uses good debt to lower their taxes legally. In other words, they did not use alot of their own money, but other people's money to lower their taxes, and make money.
Robert K's favorite words... "Tax" and "Debt" 😆 But so true 💯
Only real OG knows!

Rent growth and rent demand is definitely an important factor that many people overlook when investing in their backyard
Only real one knows! 🎉
That's some amazing rent growth. In Singapore everyone wants to own homes, not rent
Smart money make good money! 🎉 🎊
fantastic advice! thank you so much for sharing 😊
Thank you so much! 😁
More tips please! Thank you for sharing
Thank you, more to come!
Especially that furnace filter... Most tenants never change it lol...
And it costs less than 25 bucks!
Don't be penny wise pound foolish.. spend a bit on preventive maintenance, and avoid bigger repairs
Spot on!
Thanks for sharing, very interesting concept that the US brings
Thank you for your support!
Some insurance companies in fact pulled out of Florida
All the more important to avoid natural disaster areas!
Wow it's rare for Singaporeans to be so adventurous, bravo to chasing your dreams and educating others 👍🏻
Thank you, we hope to empower others to do the same 😃
Living the life, hard work pays off! 😍
Break your goals into byte sized steps, take one step a day, and a year later you're 365 steps ahead of where you were! 💪🏻
This is so heartwarming to watch! Making dreams into reality 🔥
Thank you! It's definitely possible if you figure out your goals and think "How can I?" rather than "I cannot" 💪🏻
To see the value beyond the older and "uglier" facade is how to make money 👍
Glad you understand that! Yes, see deals with the mind, not eyes 👀
First time I've heard of people successfully doing the BRRRR from so far away! Kudos! Great sharing
Thank you so much, it was hard work but no regrets 💪🏻
Wow, house looked ugly at first but was transformed, and makes good returns! Well done!
Yes! Gotta look at the bones and visualize what you can make it to be!
Very inspiring to take that bold leap to invest overseas, thank you for sharing!
You can do it too!
Very insightful, many people play the game but never think how to apply it to real life and build wealth
We hope to create even more awareness with this channel.
You guys explain it very clearly, understandable even for beginners, thank you 🙂
Thanks for your kind words. We truly put in effort to explain things clearly.
Is there a way to find these areas in a city based off what the cities development plans are? Meaning, is there a section or document released by cities we can look for?
Yes. Definitely. You can find the city's urban planning department and email them to ask. They may also publish such documents on their websites. But not all cities have such documents. So don't be surprised for certain cities, township, if you can't find anything on their development plan. You can drop us a DM on IG or FB to get a sample of how such documents look like. 😊

If you are taking a loan to buy the old and ugly house, getting insurance coverage is required before closing. Issues like whether the house has "knob & tube wiring; aluminum wiring or fuse boxes.", foundation, roof and water heater issues - can directly impact on willingness of underwriters to cover the house. I got my new build house rejected by the insurer because of "aluminium wiring". Had to scramble for another insurer last minute. So buying "ugly house" is not so straightforward and easy, cos insurers can ask very technical questions about the house conditions/materials used and can be extremely difficult. Normal home inspection report may not cover the questions of the insurers, probably need a certified electrician to give an inspection report too. Sellers usually go er...i dunno, do your own due diligence. So knowing what needs to be done to comply with building and safety codes means you need to have an idea of who you need to engage to deal with the anticipated issues.
Thank you for your comments @riverfish401! You seem like an experienced RE Investor. Thanks for taking those great steps. May I ask, in the end, after the scrambling to find a different insurer, did you manage to solve the issue? And was it a great deal in the end? In our humble opinion, its true that "ugly" houses comes with a set of problems (insurer/outdated mechanicals/wirings, etc), which turns away the masses, most that are not ready to solve the problems. This creates lesser competition, swaying the negotiation power to the buyers who are willing to go the extra mile to solve the problem. Allowing enterprising buyers to buy undervalued. Then it is up to the buyers to get educated, on how to solve these problems. If they can solve it at a fraction of the discount they get from bargaining, that's where wealth is being made. Each time they buy and solve a problem, they gain a skill. They will have acquired many skills as they grow their portfolio, those hard problems slowly become easy, or non-problem anymore. TL:DR, as repeated RE Investors who profits from solving problems, our goal is to get educated and be able to solve all these problems at a costs a fraction of the discount we get from negotiating.
Great lessons!! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you Deepak! Looking forward to see your success too!
Good video. Look forward to more.

This loophole should be stopped... Depreciation is meant to be used to improve or maintain the building over time, NOT to make someone rich and evade taxes. Im in Florida and we literally have buildings falling down due to people deferring maintenance on these buildings. And it's funny, after the 27 years of deprecating a building these investors are the same people that will try sell that home for retail or market value like they've been maintaining it the whole time. This is the main reason Trump is in office. It's to keep this one loophole so he is able to evade taxes. Hooray for deprecation!!!!
Indeed. Tax laws are influenced by the powerful!
Super underrated channel
Geez we really appreciate your kind words! ☺️🫡 Thank you very much Gatton4792! 🤗
Put on a mask walk in and ?
What state is this in?
It's in Ohio! There are tons of Midwestern cities that offers great cashflow and home price appreciation.

How do people rip such a memorable scene from an amazing movie and are too lazy to take the 10 seconds to write the title somewhere... IT'S NOT HARD. The movie is The Pursuit of Happyness
One of the best films ever!
Indeed!
In pursuit of happiness is the movie title
Movie title?
The Pursuit of happiness
Nah it's spelled happyness
What happens why is he crying
Movie is, The Pursuit of Happyness. Will Smiths character is broke but he's trying to get into an intern program for a stock brokerage. The old guy is one of the owners. Because Will Smiths character made a good impression on the old guy by lending him 5 dollars he gets accepted as an intern at the stock brokerage. Then the end of the clip is Will Smiths character being the only one the stock brokerage hired via the intern program which is why he's crying because he got hired and now won't be broke, instead he will make a lot of money. There's a lot more to this movie than that so I highly recommend you to go watch it.
I absolutely love this movie amazing ❤
