Opening

We get one chance at this life. We owe it to ourselves to get it right. That doesn\\u2019t mean we should expect perfection. What it DOES mean is we should take enough time to think about what we are doing and where we are going to improve the quality of our decisions along the way. When it comes to real estate it\\u2019s easy to make a $10,000 mistake. But if you make enough of those you are going to wind up in trouble. Today we are going to help you get it right -- Get it right when you purchase a property. Get it right when you create a repair budget. Get it right when you make repairs. Get it right when you rent it out. Get it right when you sell it. You\\u2019ll find that if you\\u2019re willing to go to war with the details and get some things right, your business is going go better and let\\u2019s face it, if your business goes better, life goes better. In the news coming up we FINALLY have a reason to go to Baltimore. Ok, no offense to Pat Dornan with Ultimate Rehab Estimator, but Baltimore isn\\u2019t one of our favorite places to visit, but that\\u2019s about to change. I\\u2019ll tell you why coming up. Also today, the world\\u2019s largest Sovereign Wealth Fund missed it\\u2019s quarterly return target for the second quarter in a row. I\\u2019ll tell you about the fund and what a pitiful job they are doing in just a few minutes. Also on the show today, some things you need to know about flood insurance and living in a flood zone. All that and more coming up...

  • Evangelina, Baltimore, MD, \\u201cI understand the MAO formula. But I can\\u2019t find any deals that fit that number. Several of my friends are buying above the price that formula recommends and they seem to be doing ok. Can you explain some of the reasoning behind it?\\u201d
  • Roderick, Tampa, FL, \\u201cI want to buy rental properties. It seems like if the property has $200/month or more in positive cash flow I should be fine. But one of my friends said I should check with you. No offense but I had never heard of you until now. Am I missing something here? $2400 a year is good money and with 10 of those I can quit my job.\\u201d
  • Stephen, Boulder, CO, \\u201cCan you explain the difference between cap rate and cash on cash return? What should I be looking for when buying a single family rental?\\u201d
  • Sherry, Sebring, FL, \\u201cWhat are the key steps when buying a flip project in another town?\\u201d
  • Lynetta, Jackson, WY, \\u201cWe want to bounce back and forth between Jackson and Austin, TX, you know, avoiding the weather extremes but getting in some skiing when we want, etc. We are both in our mid 50\\u2019s and our question is should we buy something in both places or just do longer-term rentals? We could pay cash for both places, but can\\u2019t help but wonder if our cash is better off elsewhere.\\u201d
  • Rhonda, Milwaukee, \\u201cEstimating a rehab is overwhelming to me. I just don\\u2019t know where to start. Please help.\\u201d
