How To Invest In Real Estate?

This article is intended to be a real estate beginner tutorial for Real Estate Investing.

This article is really meant to be a real estate beginner tutorial where it’s really covering the basics and outlines the steps of exactly what’s needed in order to prepare for and actually invest in real estate. To try to keep it easy to understand, I will explain the essential steps you must first take and know how to invest in Real Estate.

Here what I mean, investing in real estate. I’m not talking about wholesaling. I’m not talking about flipping. I’m talking about actually owning a property as an investment where you then get it rented to a tenant, who pays your mortgage down for you, and will still be providing a little profit on top of that. After time you will own it free and clear. You will start making a lot of Rental Income.

Step One

You must first built your credit, this is something I say so often in my videos, but the reason I repeat it is because repetitiveness actually works, because people either don’t pay attention, or they forget, but it is simply just building your credit score, I can’t stress this enough, but basically you need a good credit score because lenders look at your credit score to determine if you can pay back the loan, they’re going to give you to buy a property.

Your credit score also affects at what interest rate the loan will be, the higher the score, the lower the interest rate you pay, and with that, the more money you get to keep in your pocket every single month. However, when you have a bad credit score, lenders either decline your Mortgage application or charge you a really high interest rate. So literally, if you don’t follow this step and don’t start building your credit, this will cost you a lot of money on interest over your lifetime. You must start immediately to build your credit, TODAY. 

Step Two

Is to save your money. The reality is that you can’t really invest in real estate with no money down, with no credit, with seller finance, this way just doesn’t really exist. Those are fake believes, day dreaming deals that I have never seen in my ten years working as a Real Estate Broker and Investor. So, keeping it real, you will need to put down anywhere between 5% and 20% of the purchase price of the property.

So, this means that in order for you to invest in real estate you actually have to save money. Not only will you be required to live frugally so that you could save the money that you make, but you’re going to have to actually make extra money than the money you are making now. I know this seems kind of difficult to do, but there is nothing more difficult than to be poor forever, so if you want to become wealthy, you must learn how to invest in real estate. Investing in real estate is the most guaranteed way to become wealthy.

How to invest in real estate with no money down, with no credit, with no job, how do I do this? The answer is NO that doesn’t exist. You will actually need to go and make money to then invest and then make money.

Step Three

Is to show enough income on your tax returns. This means that you can’t just do your taxes with a low income, in order for you to qualify for more tax credit and with that get a huge tax refund.

In reality lenders really want to see a consistent, stable and long-term source of income before they give you a loan. This is to prevent people from getting a loan based off temporary money that may just stop coming in, or also to avoid high risk borrowers that might not be able to make the payments after a few months and then default on the loan.

So, in order for you in invest in real estate, you’re going to be needing to show proof of income on the last one to two years of your tax returns. For self-employed, they look at the last two years of tax returns. Mortgage lenders for the most part will look at the last one year of your tax returns and often the last six months of your bank statements and then base your loan off of that. It’s very important anytime you need to show income on a tax return, to not go too heavy with tax write-offs because lenders often look at your net income after all of your expenses. Therefor it is important to keep that in mind at the time of doing your taxes, especially if you’re thinking of getting in to the real estate game.
