612: Seeing Greene: Is a Headache Seller Worth Losing a Deal Over?

Cash flow and appreciation are at opposite ends of the investing spectrum. One will fuel your current lifestyle while the other will slowly, silently build your long-term wealth . The cash flow vs. appreciation debate has gotten even stronger this year as home prices continue to rise and cash flow prospects dwindle in formerly stable markets. Is there a way to still get the benefits of long-term growth while also taking home a sizeable rent check? If there’s one man to ask, it’s your host, David Greene, who’s joining us for another episode of Seeing Greene . David knows a thing or two about buying for different purposes, in different market conditions, with different exit strategies. He’s not only asked about how to do this on today’s episode, he’s also asked questions like who should be on the mortgage when buying a rental with a partner, whether to sell or refi a rental , what to do when your DTI ( debt-to-income ) ratio is too high, dealing with difficult sellers , and how to get comfortable with being uncomfortable.
