    Here are 10 bullet points summarizing the transcript of the UA-cam video by InstituteofTrading titled Anton Kreil - Rent to Own - Define Assets & Liabilities Properly:
    Misunderstanding Assets vs. Liabilities: Many people confuse what constitutes an asset and a liability, often misjudging their financial decisions as a result.
    Difference Between Debt and Equity: In capital markets, debt and equity have distinct implications. Debt requires scheduled payments, creating liabilities, while equity can sometimes act as an asset by bringing value to a company.
    Personal vs. Company Debt: Debt in a company is limited liability, affecting only the company and not the individual. However, personal debt exposes an individual directly, risking insolvency if payments are missed.
    Mortgages as Liabilities: A mortgage is the largest liability most people will take on in their lifetime. Although it helps purchase property, the payments over time can lead to paying much more than the original value.
    Renting vs. Buying on Mortgage: Wealthy people understand that renting provides freedom, which is an asset. Unlike mortgages, renting offers flexibility without the risk of long-term debt liabilities.
    Principle of Buying in Cash: Wealthy individuals prefer to buy assets outright with cash to avoid liabilities. Renting until enough savings accumulate to buy outright is considered financially wiser than getting trapped in debt.
    Mistake of Financing a Lifestyle: Many people finance their lifestyle through borrowing (credit cards, car loans, mortgages) rather than paying upfront in cash, which creates continuous liabilities.
    The Freedom Asset: The freedom to walk away from renting or any non-debt commitment is viewed as an asset because it provides financial flexibility and avoids the trap of scheduled payments.
    Infrastructure of Debt in the Western World: The financial infrastructure in the Western world, which promotes borrowing to eventually own assets, primarily benefits those who own the lending systems rather than the borrowers themselves.
    Building Personal Infrastructure: To achieve financial freedom, the key is to build your own infrastructure by owning assets outright, without accumulating liabilities in the process.

      You are still liable to make the payments and you are never not working on a property if you have 10 for example. If you own 10 rental properties and are managing them yourself, you essentially have a full time job again.
      You are right in principle, you can use mortgages to acquire future assets that "pay for themselves" by using it to buy property to then rent out. But getting a mortgage to buy a house for yourself to live in is crazy. It is the worst way to buy a house. And you should, as Anton said, set out to buy an Asset, so, not a house to live in, for cash, not with debt.

    If you take on a mortgage, never buy a primary residence. Always buy income producing properties. For example, the mortgage interest rate is 6% buying an investment property return rate that's over 6% then you'll come out ahead.

    • @chrismacleod9326

      Wrong. It can still be beneficial to buy a primary residence if the market in which you buy is favourable. Equity and appreciation can still give you superior returns. Granted, income
      Producing properties is a smart choice but it’s not as simple as one thinks to purchase a property that produces positive cash flow each month whilst not having a tenant(s) who give you grief.
      Further to that, owning your own home is still something people desire irrespective of whether it is an asset or a liability. There is peace of mind that comes with not being at the mercy of a landlord and working towards having something that belongs to you and eventually your offspring.

If your loan costs you 6%, get something that has higher cashflow than that and you have positive cashflow. Issue here is: why go through all the hassle of dealing with a bunch of tenants, when you could just buy a REIT? you are correct people desire living in their own home.... but if they have a mortgage they are not doing that until they have paid it off so... until then they are at the mercy of a bank. Which is much worse than a landlord.

    Amazing take on Anton on mortgage and renting. I would also add to that that buying a house requires a large deposit these days of around 40k and that's money that's gone. Now if you know what you are doing, 40k is actually a nice size capital that you can grown within few years and be able to buy property in cash. This being my problem with buying house with mortgage, to return is small compared to initial deposit size.

    I'm assuming that that's for when you intend on living in the house. How about purchasing a rental property? If I put money on a down payment and find a tenant to pay off my mortgage, I'm eventually left with a fully paid off property that's probably worth more than when I signed the mortgage. How does your view change on that?

    This dude spits straight fire... Essentially, you have to drop your pride to turn everything into an asset, especially if you aren't born into wealth. If you chose to bank with a major institution, the first step is having and holding the minimum amount in your Chequing/Savings account (for the entire calendar month) to NOT be charged a monthly "maintenance fee". It's not easy to begin if you're undisciplined with money. Then, after you're clear, move some additional money into a Savings account and collect the interest. Your bank is now paying you every month, even if it's a tiny amount. Abracadabra, you've now turned a liability into an asset.

      Also you had the mortgage for 3 years, so I assume you still have another 20 or so years left to pay it off. Also are you sure you made £100k profit in 3 years, that is an increase well above inflation, and so I'd say you must have bought the house well under market value in the first place.

    Our mortgage payment is more or less equal to what we were previously paying for rent and equates to about 55% of the value of our home. We could pay the balance in cash but prefer to keep the money invested. This way we have the benefits of the appreciation of the asset while still remaining invested.Our mortgage is a 30 year and we have the option to refinance if the interest decreases and also tax relief on a portion of the loan interest. There is opportunity loss at having some capital locked in the house, but it has worked for us.

      @joshuaking6004 6 років тому +18

      It's still a liability. If people move out and you have no one to rent your house then you have to make the payments and then you're paying rent + mortgage. If interest rates on your mortgage rise you have to take the hit. If the housing market crashes and your property value drops in half people aren't going to want to rent it for more, and guess what, you're still going to be paying 2x of what is WAS worth in the long run. Debt isn't good unless you're getting a monthly income from an asset which you incurred debt to buy it from, like a business with real positive cash flow. If you're only just making repayments from renting then that's not counted as income.

    I agree with pretty much everything Anton says except this, unless he is implying you rent a cupboard under somebodies stairs for 15 years for £50 in order to build your asset base.
    You need somewhere to live, fact. In the UK rent is higher cost than a mortgage, if you rent for 15 years before you buy, you have essentially helped pay off somebody else's mortgage, If you rented a measly 2 bedroom house for 15 years, at £600 a month, that would cost you £108,000. If that money went towards a mortgage id have 60,000 of that to my name, id rather that than nothing.
    In my opinion, if you have a liability like a mortgage, take on the smallest one possible, at the lowest cost and pay it off asap. Buy a run down house, renovate it, take on a lodger, all things you can do to reduce liability, You need somewhere to live and nowhere is free, but paying your own mortgage off is better than somebody else's.
    As for 'trap' within 4 weeks i could have a Tenant and switched my mortgage over to a buy to let.
    I agree with all other points made in the video however.

      When you buy a house, you have to pay upfront from your savings. By doing so, you are losing all possibility of making profit from your lost asset by investing and are bound now for ever to pay a monthly sum of money with the only probable return, a house. I think that's what he's getting at. Also a lot of buyers don't understand how much more expensive buying can be. There are annual/monthly fees, housekeeeping, plus a loooot of time.

    Renting also means, atleast where i live that you will pay someone elses mortgage/loan on the investment property, and their interest + whatever the market is willing to give them in profit for it.

    Of course I can see when much risk is involved it is better to pay cash because then you don't get in the trap to be stuck in a mortgage.
    But there are other cases where company ceos can save taxes by paying a mortgage so this is a point where a liability becomes an asset because it lets them reinvest while saving taxes and at the same time he can use the new building/machine for production or service already and hopefully make it pay.

      The only thing that matters is the downpayment. If you can generate high returns outside of your home, then renting is better. There are lifestyle advantages to owning your own home though. Also, buying a house gives you access to cheap debt. This is great if you make a good purchase.

      In addition to everything that everyone else said, if you live in a metropolitan area with high rent like the Bay Area, New York, LA in the States, or London, Beijing, and more, the down payment on a house is astronomical. And even if you have whatever downpayment is technically sufficient, whether it's 10%, 20% or 25%, it's highly likely that some wealthy person will come in with a bid much much higher than the asking price (and there are plenty of those rich folks in these areas), so that down payment you saved up is a moot point.

By the way, if you can afford buying a piece of land, no matter how small that piece of land is, just buy it, build a house on it while you can because you might need it.

  • @rhvre

    I'm guessing this advice varies country by country. Of course it's never smart to use credit for buying everyday stuff or a new iphone or a fancy car etc. But in my case my mortgage interest rate is 1% (i.e lower than inflation) and if I would rent the same property that I have now bought I pay about 25% more every month to the owner than I pay now for bank (and in the end I own it outright, instead of just paying the owner and getting nothing permanent back). In this scenario I see no reason not to take a mortgage to buy a property (or even pay it off early, as I can get 10x higher return if I just invest this money compared to paying off my 1% mortgage). Again, I'm guessing it varies a lot by country and I'm sure he's right for UK market.

    Renting sometimes costs as much as the mortgage and often even more. And you're not locked for life with your mortgage, no need to afraid that much. You can sell freely as long as prices went up and that's what prices usually do in the long run. Short sale is less fun of course but not the end of the world either, if it happened because of the job loss, in 2 years you could get a mortgage again. Plus, technically you are the owner of the asset and you can even rent it out if you need.
    Credit cards have lot of perks, cashback, fraud protection and ability to get some additional interest from savings while you're in a grace period are few to mention. With smart approach you only gain more money from your credit card.
    Cars - more complex thing. Newer cars might have better fuel economy, better safety (why saving on safety idk, you've only got one life). Require less repairs. Unless you are a mechanic yourself, getting a car loan for a new car might be more cost-effective than buying some older car for less money.
    And another point is inflation. Money now - more expensive than money in future. Income gets adjusted to the inflation, not as quick as we want but still, if you took 100k mortgage 15 years ago this seems funny now.
    Of course, if you're a wolf from the wall street like Anton, you would think completely differently. Like why borrow if you have enough cash now. But that can't apply to everyone.

  • @ArtEmis55K
    @ArtEmis55K 5 років тому +3

    I think the comments here discussing rent v buy of housing are missing Anton's point. He's talking from the perspective of people who are interested in wealth creation. Almost everyone who follows the IoT has to believe themselves to be a reasonably high investment compounder. Otherwise, why listen to an investment expert?
    His point is that whilst anyone has a mortgage they can't ever invest in other assets that produce dividends. When you have paid off say 400K of a 500K loan over 15-20 years, how much income does the 400K that's paid generate? None. There is still interest bearing debt that demands you work and pay off and no income other than arguably the imputed rent saved can be realised. Your personal revenue stream is the same it always was - your salary. If, however 400K had been invested, then it could compound and pay dividends that improve your income.
    It really comes down to your rate of return, if you're able to make 10-15% pa then reinvest for 10 years and you'll be earning a significant income. This is turn can be reinvested into hopefully ever more productive companies.
    Somewhere along the line if you have ambitions of wealth, there has to be something done to save money so that investments can be started. One option for this is to rent a cheap place and then invest any surplus to generate income. For most citizens however, a mortgage is a good thing as it means they end up owning a home because, to be blunt, they'll never make decent money investing. The best outcome for them is to end up in a fully paid for house which is hopefully worth way more than their purchase price plus all the interest paid over the life of the loan. Then with the mortgage payments gone, they can start to invest.
    Not an easy call, but if you have ambitions to make big money then you want capital invested and not servicing debt. If you want to own a house outright then get a mortgage and pay it off over 25 years so you can have certainty that you'll have a place to live

    But would it not also be better to leverage debt with a bank to buy a property on a mortgage, rent the property out (in some cases for more than the mortgage payments), while you continue to work and earn money and also have that minor stream of income? Surely missing out on that opportunity to build up cash, while renting your own living space (for a considerable sum of money) is only worth doing if you have solid liquid investments in other areas that can yield higher returns? I suppose house prices aren't as solid as people think and index funds don't do so well (particularly at this period in time where everything has fallen).
    I understand what he is saying but maybe I don't know how to weight it against the idea I have been fed by people who build property empires to rent out, who go by a money now is better than money later principle where having the room to take on more investments, while being riskier, can have greater rewards.

    It’s a long term plan with a mortgage. Rents go up. Fixed Mortgage payment stays the same. At the end of 20 or 30 years, your property should have increased in value. Asset value increases as the liability decreases, the net of which would be a gain if sold. Interest is a write off. I can’t wrap my head around how renting is a better solution when rent increases so much over time, you don’t build any equity and you don’t get the write off. I can do what I want in my home. Decorate etc. I can rent it out. I don’t answer to a landlord. That is freedom for me. But I am in family land. I could see how mortgages and home ownership could be an obstacle for someone who needs to move on a dime. Love the talks!

    You left out an important aspect of how to make the liability of a mortgage become an asset: you mortgage a property then rent it out. The tenants then pay the debt in exchange for the landlord taking on the exposure and risk. That's how you build an asset. Also the richest people in the world are the ones who have the most debt. The goal is to keep as much money liquid as possible to be ready to invest. You can always sell a house to recoup losses, you'll never recoup money put into rent. If renting was the ideal solution then landlords wouldn't be a thing.

    He's making the wrong point on debt vs equity. Issuing equity on the whole costs more than issuing debt because there are no assurance made to stockholders when they buy. The increased risk of buying equity means the equity holders will want a greater return on investment. A stockholder get the "residual" from net income after all creditors are paid and after the company decides how much they want to keep as retained earnings. A debt holder, on the other hand, takes a much smaller risk because they have interest that they are promised to be paid. Most bonds also come with covenants both negative and positive that decreases risks even more by limiting what the management of the company may do, or demanding the management to do particular things. Debt is also often collateralized, securing an even greater probability of capital recovery. For these reasons, debt tends to be cheaper.

  • @EOTA564
    @EOTA564 2 роки тому

    I would somewhat disagree that a mortgaged property is a liability in comparison to renting. Obviously from a balance sheet perspective your asset position is the market value of the property less the outstanding balance of your mortgage.
    You should have a very clear idea in your mind before you take on a mortgage how you are going to make the payments, not just over the next few months but over the term of the loan and how much it will cost you. Just paying a few £hundred extra a month will likely save you tens of thousands over the life of a mortgage.
    Bear in mind that most residential leases will have a minimum term so you will pay if you need to break the lease before the contractual end date. On the other hand if you own a desirable property you can rent it out in the long, medium or short term possibly even covering your scheduled mortgage payments with some positive cashflow.
    The real key to investing in real estate is understanding potential for capital growth which is how you create equity beyond simply repaying debt. And the more equity you have the more you can borrow and buy more cash flow generating assets. If you have knowledge and skills to add value to real estate, even better.

    Yes, in general I agree with what you said. But lets say if the cost to take up some debt is very low (as one can see with interest rates today) it does sometimes make sense to purchase assets (as in income producing assets such as a home that you will then rent out to the market) with the help of some of this cheap money available. In the end isn't it just a balancing game between the monthly schedule you are on of repaying back this money and balancing that out with the amount of money that you can make out of the assets that you partially purchased with equity(cash or down-payment in this case ) and debt(mortgage in this case)? In order to purchase a home upright you might have to save up for 5 to 10 years. Then there would be another aspect to take into consideration,,,which is the time value of money. Maybe the key here is to also distinguish between assets that produce an income and things you buy that do not produce an income and thus become a financial liability too you especially if you borrowed money to purchase such an item.
