10 Rental Properties in 8 Months and The Power of Saying "No"

How many rental properties do you own? It could be one or one hundred rentals. But, whether you’re a rookie or veteran real estate investor, it’s hard to not be impressed by Jason Rash’s story. Jason has put off investing in real estate for most of his working life, focusing more on passive income streams like investing in stocks. This all changed when Jason saw tens of thousands in stock value disappear from his accounts. He wanted something more reliable, stable, and calculated that he could control. Of course, real estate investing fits that criteria exactly. So what did Jason do? Did he go and buy one rental, wait a few years, and then try to buy another? Nope. Jason went and bought ten properties over the span of eight months. That more than one property a month within his first year of investing! Be warned, there is a method to this madness. Jason has a tight control on his long-distance investing, having only the best agents, property managers, plumbers, electricians, and contractors on speed dial. This wasn’t a system he fell into, this was a system he intentionally built. Jason shares his six-part criteria that any new investor can use, especially when trying to minimize headaches and maximize cash flow. ~~~~ Join BiggerPockets for FREE: https://www.biggerpockets.com/signup?... ~~~~ Grab the Books Mentioned in Today’s Episode: Long-Distance Real Estate Investing: https://store.biggerpockets.com/produ...
