There’s no other greater joy than having financial freedom and a life free of debts, all thanks to Mr carlos, cause he made me who I am today through binary trade. He has helped me a lot with his trading strategies which helps me to earn $12,550 weekly. I really appreciate it and can't help but let others know about it because it is so suitable anyone can trade from anywhere and anythime, you can reach mr carlos on IG @carlos_1uptrades his indeed a God sent. now i dont need to be working 9-5.
After watching this, I would say Sterling's biggest success factor is his attitude. That guy seems like he could put a positive spin on anything and stay upbeat in any situation. His ice cream cone could melt away before he had a chance to finish it and he'd be like, "well I got to experience some of that ice cream, and ultimately I didn't need all the calories in my life, so I've been able to maintain a fit body while extracting some fulfillment from the melted ice cream cone."
I got so much out of this call I did my own cold calls!! And it works!! Bonus... I met Sterling at a random opportunity in Florida. Most humble dude...
The Rubik's cube idea is great! I'm thinking of sending some Excedrin to a homeowner who said he wants to be "free of this headache", to help him sign a contract to sell his house to me.
Man - I know what he's talking about in Indianapolis being rough. A guy that used to come over to my Dad's house every day and just hung out with all of us was killed in a drive by shooting at his mom's house. Amazing to see a guy come up and get out of that shit and become a literal absolute baller.
Great show! Very inspiring. It was actually you guys who inspired me to start my own podcast and UA-cam channel teaching people how to reach Financial Independence! Thank you keep it up!
Sterling White Hi thanks for the nice info Sterling . You just gave me a route to follow . Do I need to start a business, like get a biz name to do this in scale ? Or just do it personally ?
He's totally right about offering value. I did some podcasts over on my close friend Justin Chamness channel Real Estate Wholesalers Club and I had a partner approach me with 250K line of credit. That was it.
Maybe I'm missing it but I guess I'm looking for the exact answer. No one says exactly how to get started. I'm guessing the buy a duplex method live in one side rent the other is the start.
Unfortunately (but fortunately), there are so many different ways to start. A lot of it depends on your personal financial position and goals. House hacking is an incredibly powerful strategy when first starting out, but it certainly is not the only way. Post your question in the BP forums and let the community help you! - www.biggerpockets.com/forums
Same for me. I plan on selling my single fam home and cashing out the equity and just renting for a year or so in order to be able to not only actually qualify for any financing but have money for a down payment. Yes you can get started with no money down, but it's so hard and unlikely for the average person from what I have learned. I have made a 2 page financial plan that involves these steps and others -- including paying off 7k of credit card debt. This is all after trying the other methods..getting a heloc, etc. Every bank told me no. I don't have much in savings. So I have to just de-leverage, than start over. No matter what deal you find, you're more than likely going to have a few thousand for a down payment, and more on top of that for title fees. So the "you can start with no money out of pocket" stuff we constantly hear from all of these sources rings a little hollow. You DO have to have *some* money. If you're like me...single dad with 2 kids in high school and a good job but average income, then you have to pretty much wipe the slate and start over if you want to do it right and not go around hat in hand to banks who look at your debt to income ratio and always say no based on that. I have a plan and it WILL work, but man I'm going to have to make some big sacrifices first.
Buy Brandon Turners book, "The book on Rental Property Investing" great book, lots of answers. First time home buyers are eligible for low down payment and can buy up to a 4plex. Its called house hacking, look for a bigger pockets video on house hacking.
This is one of my favorite videos he did it in three years this is my first year and I bought a duplex in Utah and still struggling in buying or finding properties. I guess I’m still struggling and figuring everything out. But bigger pocket breaks everything down for me, thank you 🙏
Remember that he is an anamoly. He is only on the podcast because his case is an extreme exception. You can work as hard as he did and still not do this good because, as much as people don't want to admit it, quite a bit of his success is due to luck. He was in the right places at the right times....many times.
Title is a bit misleading. With enough money (syndication) and dedication you can go from 0-1,000 in a year. It is not known how many units he personally bought during this period as in with HIS OWN MONEY.
Great Episode. My question is how many properties is a change point to start putting people under you? And when to build team? I know there is no hard fast real but in general. Are we talking 4 properties? 10 properties. I know you should be able to handle 1 or 2 for sure (if they are local)
What do you mean by put people under you?? I own many many multi family and don't have " people under me" I would love to answer any questions the best I can from just my experience.
Lots of good gems in this! But let's be clear. Wholesalers are not Realtors and to be a wholesale you don't act like one. I think David is being bias bc he is a realtor and most don't understand what wholesalers do. Wholesalers sell paper (contracts) not houses that's left to the realtor. Also Realtors are most times not investors so they may not also know repair cost on rehabs or ARVs. most times they're over-inflated the A RVs because they get paid based on commission so of course they want the house to go for the highest price possible. SN I'm not a wholesaler but I've studied both wholesaling and also took/ passed my states real estate sales associate testing.
Great "positive attitude" type video but not a deep dive on the "how to's" or the steps that were taken to get there. I get the impression that Sterling is definitely more in his depth aa a marketing and sales guy and not so much of a capital raising or deal structuring type. Lot of the nuts and bolts answers were very vague. He talks about that first deal and then PRESTO he has 400 units! But still a pretty good "motivational" type interview.
Hey there, quick question (may or may not be relevant in the grand scheme of things): When you consider out of state investing, is whether that state is landlord-friendly a consideration at all when factoring your specific reasons for choosing that state in the first place? Sterling mentioned during their conversation something about taking 7+ months in Chicago to evict a tenant. I'm not sure if that was a joking statement in jest or if Illinois is a tenant-friendly state, but I'm sure it would factor into losses when determining where you're investing.
Some states are very landlord friendly and some are very tenant friendly..... I don't want to get political but usually strong Democrat areas are stronger tenant areas and usually strong republican areas are more landlord friendly. So I would check that before you do anything. Where I live it can take about 3-4weeks total... Unless the tenant does something extreme.. Then you can file a 7 day eviction.. But that 7 day is still after you give the eviction notice and court date.. So still takes over the 7 days.
Chill Woadie For one you are making rental income. Secondly, you can leverage the equity in your properties as downpayment for your next purchase. That's a simple case but there are other methods.
Because he's talking of deals he did that were like #1-10 of #225 or so deals... And I thought he did a great job at providing his story and information for a free podcast.
Looking for a mentor in Forth Worth or Bogata Texas area. Have done a couple of projects in the past; excellent credit, a little cash on hand just need direction.
It can be achieved if you are already rich to begin with, which is what a lot of these people in these interviews are. If you have enough capital, you could go out and buy 500 units your first purchase.
@@oregonflatlandSterling said he had a negative net worth when he started. Wholesaling and loans from family/friends is how he started, as per this video if I heard correctly.
I love watching the bigger pockets, but I have a question for every investor when you pass your 5th properly do you have to put other properties under a different LLC?. Or do you put all your property under one LLC?.
Why would you buy a house for more than 3 million dollars? It is hard to sell it and hard to rent it out. Walk me thru the thoughts behind this investment please.
Hi Guys, I’ve just sold my business and will net 1.5 million dollars (USD). You guys seem so smart and I’d really appreciate your advice here. I’m interested in getting into real estate with zero experience in real estate, so my question is, should I go big straight away, or start slow? I am a business person so I’m not scared to jump in with both feet if that’s the right thing to do. Again, your opinion would be great appreciated. Thanks is advance.
Getting push bank from my broker that you can only buy investment property @20%. I’ve heard credit unions can get in under15%. Anybody else have good experience using a CU?
Great episode! Brandon, I love you, but you gotta come up with better canned responses after a guest answers your question and you have to deliver them better. When you can't think of a response, it is really clear.
Thanks for watching this episode!
Will you scale like Sterling in 2019?
How do you overcome all the realtors that have the markets?
Probably not.
@@ppope1231 I think he does a fair job at describing some ways to capitalize. They are out there :)
Yes the Realtors are aggressive and annoying. Make me sound criminal to potential sellers.

how do you keep buying buying buying if you have no yob? what would you show the bank as income to purchase future properties?
