The New (Better) BRRRR Method: Less Risk, More Cash Flow
The BRRRR method (buy, rehab, rent, refinance, repeat) was, for a few years at least, the real estate investor’s golden ticket to a million-dollar portfolio. It allowed investors to buy properties, fix them up fast, get their down payment money back, and recycle it. This created an “infinite” investing loop where someone with one down payment could turn it into five (or more) separate houses. But with high mortgage rates, the BRRRR method was thought to be over by many…until now.
We’re introducing a new BRRRR strategy. It’s safer, with less risk (and stress), makes you more cash flow than before, and keeps your leverage lower so you don’t go underwater in a housing correction. Does it work? Dave and Henry are both using this new BRRRR method right now—and doing quite well, we might add.
You (yes, you listening to this) can also use this new BRRRR method to buy houses, increase their value, get higher cash flow than regular rentals, and then recycle the money you put into the property to use toward your next investment. You can invest faster, but with lower risk than before, and scale your real estate portfolio the right way, so if interest rates rise, it might not even matter for your bottom line!
