looking great Scott ! what a beautiful start for this lovely couple ! With your help they can't lose ! I hope we see a follow through ~ Have a great weekend !
SO correct Buying is cheaper than Renting! 26 years ago, living in the city and finding rent prices sky-rocketing, we were on the search for lower cost rent and scored a small 2 bedroom for almost half the price of everything else... For the next 4 years we saved and paid off bills and scored a property for our current home... At first my husband was complaining about the $300 per month increase, but in just a few short years the small apartment we had lived in before caught up to EQUAL our Mortgage payment... Now that our mortgage is paid off, that same apartment rents for double what our last mortgage payment was... We are WAY ahead just on a personal basis! No more monthly payments and we have the Freedom of Country living with several acres of property ... a huge garden, barn, and sheds provide for enjoyable lifestyle.
Scott and team, amazing basketball court you built for Cruz, can't wait to see Cruz in the NBA someday soon, go Cruz, and love you too Mocha and Jenna.
Hi I appreciate your candor and the information you share. How do you find the properties. Or maybe what I mean is what are the resources/sites someone might use, other than Zillow,to locate properties?
Hey Scott Quick Question Was wondering if you ever thought about getting a verification badge on your youtube channel to speed up your channel growth by almost 70%? We have verified 100+ channels till now with a 100% success rate (with less than 100k subs).
I watched a few of your videos and the content is great, thanks. The climate though from when you purchased your first property to buying one now is so drastically different. Getting approved with a low stated income seems impossible…
Not sure how I had not thought of this method myself. I currently own 3 homes, rent 2 out. I wondered how I could purchase another...bingo...revolving credit!
He purchased the property for $117k over 20 years ago and in 2021 it appraised in the $600’s. That figure doesn’t even include over 20 years of rental income the property generated and is still generating.
