402: The “Domino Effect”: How to Build an Entire Portfolio from ONE Property w/Rob Schou
Manage episode 416705424 series 2632451
The hardest part of real estate investing is, of course, getting started. Once you have your first rental property, it’s much easier to scale your real estate portfolio than you might think—even if you don’t have much money to your name!
Earning modest salaries from their nine-to-five teaching jobs, Rob Schou and his wife couldn’t afford a large down payment on an expensive property. But by starting multiple side hustles and sharpening their DIY home renovation skills, they were able to purchase a cheaper property and add value to it. The best part? This created a “domino effect,” giving them more capital and momentum for future deals. Even when they didn’t have everything figured out, taking action and having multiple exit strategies meant they always turned a profit—even when a project didn’t go to plan!
In this episode of the Real Estate Rookie podcast, you’ll hear about some creative side hustle ideas you can use to fund your next down payment. You’ll also learn how to choose a niche that aligns with your long-term goals, as well as how to build your “buy box” and find the right market. But that’s not all. Rob even dives into new construction, showing you how to buy land, vet builders, and more!
