11 Rentals in 4 Years with SMALL, Affordable Multifamily Properties

We always say it, but buying just ONE rental property can change everything ! For Jesse Walters , a coffee roaster by trade but a cash-flowing investor now, buying his first rental property opened up an entirely new world of not only passive income —but freedom. After his wife became a real estate agent, Jesse noticed the sizable commission checks and thought hundreds of dollars a month in passive cash flow beat wholesaling three-dollar bags of coffee . Was he right? Jesse didn’t do any expert-level real estate investing moves to get his first deal done. It was 2021 —he found a listing for an affordable house, put 20% down on it, and rented it out. That strategy seemed to work, so Jesse did it again, finding another on-market, affordable rental property to purchase. Then, he took it up a notch, purchasing a fourplex (four units) by putting—get this— $0 down ! He used a strategy ANYONE with access to a local bank can try, and this property lit the rocket fuel for his portfolio. Now, he has 11 rental units , runs multiple house flips a year that pay him five-figure checks, and is building a new triplex that will hit the 1% rule from the start. Jesse shares the exact playbook for building a small but profitable rental property portfolio , even with high interest rates, even in a small town, and even if you have no experience. In This Episode We Cover How Jesse used his two small rental properties to put $0 down on a fourplex ! “Building” the 1% rule and why brand new rentals may make more sense than existing ones Why you CAN cash flow with affordable real estate in small towns The investor cheat code that Jesse has (thanks to his wife) and why you NEED an investor-friendly agent to get the best deals How Jesse made $21,000 on a quick, cosmetic, low-cost flip (as a complete newbie) And So Much More!
