Summary
On today's Wholesale Hotline (Subto Edition),ย Pace explains why โspreadsheets are stupidโ and instead uses a simple cash-in, cash-out method to underwrite even multimillion-dollar deals.
Show notes โ in this episode we'll cover:
- Pace breaks down how most investors overlook cost of capital, showing how a $1.5M cash investment should earn at least 12%โotherwise, it's a bad use of funds.
- A $5M Section 8 portfolio that seems promising at first quickly unravels under scrutiny due to underestimated expenses, inflated future rent projections, and deal euphoria.
- Using creative financeโincluding DSCR loans, seller carries, and transactional fundingโPace transforms a bad deal into an $8K/month cash-flowing asset with no money out of pocket.
- He shows why traditional investors get stuck using old tools like the BRRRR method, while creative finance unlocks better returns, tax benefits, and flexibility without needing personal capital.

| 0:31.9 | Remember to subscribe, give us a little bit of love, and make some comments in the show |
| 0:36.4 | notes down below so we know what to talk about in the future enjoy today's episode the team behind us |
| 0:47.8 | does 62 deals every single month and it's not the deals that they do that I love |
| 0:52.0 | it's actually the deals that they don't do. |
| 0:56.7 | The reality is not every real estate deal is a deal. |
| 1:01.2 | We have to look at hundreds of deals every single day in order for us to buy one. |
| 1:08.5 | The deals that we don't do actually save us from two years of turmoil, legal fees, evictions, all sorts of problems. And so today, we're going to be talking about how I saved somebody |
| 1:12.3 | from an atrocious deal. We're going to be breaking down in front of a live audience. And this is |
| 1:16.7 | actually only a short version of this. If you want to see the whole video, click the link down |
| 1:21.0 | in the description below. But in the meantime, enjoy it. I think before you understand creative |
| 1:26.4 | finance, you look at this deal and you go, oh yeah, this is a deal. Five million dollars. This is how a traditional investor looks at it. They go, okay, I'm going to bring $1.5 million to the table. That's a little bit less than 30%. A little bit less than 30%. The problem is what people want to do is they want to see a big spreadsheet before they say yes or no. not even going even going going to look at a spreadsheet. Rule number one, spreadsheets are stupid because it doesn't get you to the heart of the problem, doesn't get you the heart of like what's really going on here. Did you see how quickly I ask, well, what's it bringing in? 54,000 gross. Okay, what's my DSCR loan? 28,000 172. Okay, what goes to your mind when you start looking at, oh, $54,000? It's bringing in $54,000 now, |
| 2:04.1 | and my cost of the loan is $28,172. What pops in your mind? Not much left after what? What are the |
| 2:11.3 | things that you got to do? One, the number one thing you've got to consider is cost of the capital. |
| 2:15.3 | And this is where nobody pays attention are sitting here going, yeah, I'm willing to put one point mother-freaking $5 million in a deal and not consider the fact that that thing has a cost of capital. Well, it's my money, pace. It doesn't cost me money. Oh, it doesn't. Does your $1.5 million, is it not currently being eroded away by the federal government and inflation? No matter where it goes, you need to consider that money needs to be making you at least 5% to |
| 2:40.0 | 7% to break even, correct? |
