In June, I flew to Atlanta and toured a few of my rental units. This was the second visit I’ve made to these properties in four years.
During that visit, I met with my property manager and a few of my tenants, and I had lunch with my contractor. He and I met at a suburban Atlanta strip mall.
We ordered a basket of spicy chicken wings and fries, then took out a water-logged spiral notebook and planned a $20,000 renovation.
Here’s what the early brainstormed edition of those plans looked like:

Heyyy!!
Guess what guess what guess what guess what? (Can you tell I’m excited?)
Ahem. Clears throat, pulls self together.
Enrollment for the Fall 2019 semester of my favorite course in the world, Your First Rental Property, is open now!!
✨😀🍩🥳📣🙌🤩🍻🔔💥
If you’ve dreamed of owning rental properties but you want a step-by-step roadmap to show you the ropes (whoa, how’s that for a mixed metaphor?!), this is the course for you!
If you’re thinking:
“Awesome! Could this course help me run faster, jump higher, reduce wrinkles, and build six-pack abs?!”
Uhhhh … nope. Not yet.
But if you’re thinking:
“Awesome! Could this course help me avoid losing tens of thousands of dollars in dumb novice mistakes as a real estate investor?”
HECK YEAH!

My readers and podcast listeners regularly reach out to me to say that they’re afraid to invest in rental properties because they don’t want to put their life savings at risk on a deal.
I get that – but, if you approach real estate investing the right way (with risk management in mind), then you […]

The excellent, the normal, and the terrible. Two weeks ago, I saw them all.
I’d like to share the harrowing story. It’s a story of triumph, resilience, and late-night burritos. A story that immersed three days of my life — and is now over, chapter closed, with nothing else needed for at least another […]

Let’s open the books … again.
Every month I reveal my income, expenses and bottom-line results from my real estate investments.
This month’s update is long overdue (it’s a 2-for-1!) because I’ve been trying (unsuccessfully) to write a deep-dive lesson to accompany this article.
I don’t want to merely publish numbers; I want to add insight like “how […]

Once a month, I share my rental property investment numbers.
I hope that this gives you more insight into whether or not buy-and-hold real estate investing is a path you want to pursue.
(Also, I’m trying something new this month by directly putting the net income — not the gross, the net — into the headline, […]

How much income did I earn through real estate investing last month?
And how much time did it take?
I’m back for another round of baring my financial books to the world.
Ready?

Hey everyone —
I’ve been deliberating for months — nah, years — about whether or not I should open the books to my rental property business, giving everyone a behind-the-scenes look at all the numbers.
Getting financially naked is scary. But I think it’s necessary.

“Are you going to sell your properties?”
Now that I live in a different state than my rental investments, I hear this question a lot.
But people with the long-term Afford Anything mindset might phrase this differently. Instead of “will you sell?,” the better question might be, “how can you hold?”
How will I […]
