Summary

Rental properties come in all shapes and sizes. You may be investing in short-term rentals, long-term rentals, glamping sites, or, maybe you’re trying to help someone else buy a rental property. Regardless of where you choose to hang your hat on the real estate investing spectrum, David Greene probably has a golden nugget of advice for your next purchase, sale, or client. In this week’s episode of Seeing Greene, David takes questions from investors, agents, wholesalers, and more to help answer some of the most common real estate inquiries. You’ll hear topics such as: whether or not a special use permit will increase property value, when to sell and when to refi a rental property, whether or not each separate short-term rental needs its own LLC, and why David stopped looking for under-market properties and started looking at something else entirely.

Hop on the BiggerPockets forums and ask other investors their take, or follow David on Instagram to see when he’s going live so you can hop on a live Q&A and get your question answered on the spot! In This Episode We Cover When to hold a property at a great interest rate and when to sell or refi What it means to “ethically wholesale” and getting deals while helping a seller Lot splitting and the implications it could have on your taxes, insurance, and equity How to succeed in a new market as a real estate agent and dropping “hooks” whenever you can When to put your property in an LLC and whether or not each rental requires its own Whether or not landlords are making the housing market unaffordable for average homebuyers And So Much More!
