By Lee Arnold – I’m always fascinated by the investors who tell me that they own 10 rental properties. My question to them is, “What’s your average cash flow per property?” Often the answer ranges between netting $150 to $200 per property. Basically they are managing 10 units and making $1,500 a month. Is that really the best use of time when they could be finding great deals, wholesaling them for $10,000 to $20,000 a pop, and making $20,000 to $50,000 a month? The same thing goes for private money brokering. Wouldn’t it be smarter to make great brokering fees by brokering private money loans to other real estate investors?
Although I have been accused of being anti‑rental, I’m not. I own rentals, but it’s not my predominant lead-in strategy. My predominant lead in strategy for all investors is to get you to a point where you have at least $250,000 in liquid capital available to you at any given time, whether it be in a bank account or a self‑directed IRA. This is your first benchmark to strive for. Only then should you buy and hold properties. However, NEVER use your own money to buy and hold. Use partner or investor cash, which is why you always need to have private money relationships. Your personal funds should only be reserved for wholesaling and flipping, which generate those big lump sum paychecks. Never cul‑de‑sac your cash, meaning don’t put cash into an investment where there’s no immediate, what I call “liquidity event” from a sale or a refinance.
