so I'm sure we all have that close
friend of ours or that uncle that got
rich by investing in real estate but the
question I'm looking to answer today is
how people actually get rich by
investing in real estate now I
personally have not invested in any real
estate yet it is something I plan on
doing in the future so I wanted to
invite an expert on to this channel
somebody who has actually been
successful investing in real estate so
I'm inviting Graham Stefan on here he's
gonna talk about how he became a
millionaire by the age of 26
simply by investing in real estate and
following this one simple strategy so
I'm gonna go ahead and pass this video
over to Graham what's up Brian thank you
so much for the introduction and for
everybody watching who's not already
subscribed to Ryan just do it so anyway
estate and why this is my favorite way
of building wealth above anything else
for those who have not heard of me my
name is Graham Stefan and I started
working in real estate in 2008 as a real
estate agent I saved up all of my
commissions and in 2011-2012
I began investing in real estate as well
and then from a combination of working
as a real estate agent and also
investing my money in real estate I
became a millionaire by the time I
turned 26 years old now the reason I
started investing in real estate in the
first place was because they really
wanted passive income now working as a
real estate agent was something I really
enjoyed and absolutely loved doing but
it was Commission only and the income I
made was rather sporadic there were some
months where I could make an insane
amount of money and then other months I
could make nothing for months on end and
honestly having income be that
inconsistent was just incredibly
stressful it also relied on me
constantly working finding new clients
and closing deals to make money so if I
went out of town or I was not working I
was basically not making money and it
was because of this inconsistent income
that prompted me to really want to make
money regardless of what I was doing day
to day I really wanted something that
made money while I slept where I can
wake up and know that I am X amount
wealthier that day or I could go on
vacation and think that while I'm on
vacation I'm still making money
regardless of what I'm doing or how much
time I'm spending in something
because I was in real estate I felt like
it was the best choice for me to then
invest in real estate because that was
my area of expertise and I bought my
first property it was for $60,000 I
spent $12,000 fixing it up and my net
income after all of my expenses on that
home was thirty dollars of profit every
single day and the way that I saw that
was that that $30 a day pays my phone
bill my car insurance gas from my car
food and other miscellaneous expenses
for my entire month every single month
and it was so good that I bought another
property and then I bought another
property and then I bought another
property and then I bought another
property and I kept repeating that same
process over and over again I found a
property that needed some work I go in I
fix it up and then I rent it out and
then I move on and I do that again and
now at this point I'm 28 years old I'm
10 years into the business and the
income that I get from all my rental
properties pays for all of my expenses
all of my living expenses food car
insurance is like basically all the
money I spend is replenished every
single month by the rent checks that I
have coming in this allows me to do
whatever I want whenever I want to do it
and then everything else that I make
from working as a real estate agent
which I still do full-time and YouTube
and everything else that I do is just
pure profit that I could then go and
reinvest into buying more real estate
and when you get to this point it's
really just like a snowball that tends
to get bigger and bigger and bigger but
in this case it's rental income just
becomes more more more MORE and that
leads to even more and it's just this
upward spiral of being able to make more
money because you have more money and
all of this was really due to just being
frugal investing my money as much as I
could when I was young and also just
buying real estate and the best part
about all of this is that with real
estate you don't have to just use your
own money you can leverage other
people's money such as the bank to
finance the deal you also end up getting
some pretty incredible tax advantages of
investing in real estate to the point
where I really don't pay
income tax on the rental income I
receive make sure to talk to your
accountant about that
and also by doing this in addition to
having rental income come in every
single month you're also paying down the
loan on that property so that in fifteen
to thirty years chances are you will own
a completely paid off property so even
right now assuming you just break even
on the property this means that in
thirty years from now you will just own
the property outright and everything you
make from that point on will be one
hundred percent profit or you could just
sell the home with all the equity or for
whatever it's worth and just cash out
and also by investing your money and
hopefully you have some extra cash flow
coming in every single month this just
speeds up the process to then go and buy
the next one which speeds up the process
then go and buy the next one and so on
for instance it took me about four years
of saving from 2008 to about 2012 to be
able to buy my first properties after
that it took me three years to save up
enough money to buy the next one after
that it took me just one year to save up
enough money to buy the next one and at
this point I can pretty much save up a
new downpayment every eight to ten
months and to me this is also the
perfect retirement strategy buy a few
properties now pay them off over 30
years and by the time you're ready to
retire you will have all of this real
estate owned free and clear it will be
100% profit that you can then go and
just decide at that point that is your
retirement money now the strategy that I
use when it comes to investing in real
estate is also known as the Bur method
of real estate investing so number one
buy obviously you buy the property I
shouldn't have to explain that one but
it's really important to have the
patience to wait for the deal that
actually makes money I would say out of
everything I look at probably 99 out of
100 just don't make sense there's not
enough equity in the deal it's not
making enough money or in most cases it
doesn't make any money so it's going to
be up to you to learn how to evaluate
these deals to make sure they actually
make sense to buy and if you don't fully
understand the deal and feel confident
in it walk away never buy something that
you're either unsure of or you don't
really know
the ins and outs of the property it's
really important to understand what your
mortgage payment is going to be what
your property taxes are going to be what
insurance is going to be like what the
vacancy rates are and what sort of
repairs you're gonna need to do all of
these are gonna eat into your profit and
also in a perfect world you will find a
property that you can buy under market
value much like buying an undervalued
stock yes you can absolutely buy an
undervalued property it just takes time
in patience so number two the our and
that is to renovate the property now in
my opinion the best homes to get and
also the homes that you will make the
most money with are usually the ones
that you will have to fix up and more so
than anything minor cosmetic renovations
often have the highest ROI of any money
that you spend for instance maybe you
spend $20,000 on a property but that
gives you back a $50,000 value in terms
of equity because you're adding on to
the property and now it's worth more
than what you put in it and this
renovation part is absolutely critical
that you evaluate the deal to figure out
what you need to do to get the property
to be worth more money than what you
invest in it and also by renovating the
property you're adding instant equity
which is essential if you want to
refinance to pull your money out of the
deal so now we're on the next are and
that is you rent the property now I
personally go for long term tenants and
I really believe that long term tenants
are the best most stable way of earning
a consistent income when it comes to
investing in real estate just make sure
you screen your tenants very very well
and don't be in a position where you
just take the first person that comes by
this was a mistake that I made that
ended up just it was a nightmare and had
to evict a tenant they trashed the
property do not do this take your time
screen your tenants properly and don't
sign a lease until you found a tenant
who meets the criteria that you've set
so the next star after that is then to
refinance the property so if you've done
this correctly and you've bought a home
that's under market value and then you
fixed it up adding more equity to the
property chances are it's worth now more
than what you've paid for it
so in this case after about six months
you can take out a new
hire loan on the property that then pays
off your first original lower loan we'll
take my last place for an example I
bought a duplex for $600,000 I put 150
thousand dollars of my own money down
and I financed four hundred and fifty
thousand dollars with a bank I then
spent about eighty thousand dollars of
my own money fixing up this property so
my total investment in this is the six
hundred thousand dollar purchase price
of which I put a hundred and fifty
thousand dollars down plus the 80
thousand dollars I spent fixing it up so
the total value that I put in six
hundred and eighty thousand dollars of
which two hundred and eighty thousand
dollars was coming from my own money but
when I was finished with all of this the
property was then worth eight hundred
and fifty thousand dollars so now that I
have a property worth eight hundred and
fifty thousand dollars this means that I
can refinance that deal and pull out 80
percent of that which works out to be
six hundred and eighty thousand dollars
this pays off my loan of four hundred
and fifty thousand dollars and gives me
back my two hundred and thirty thousand
dollars that I had invested myself in
the property now I basically have a
place that I got for free and I have my
money back that I can then go and invest
in another property and then the last
step of this the last are is really just
to repeat the process and do the same
thing over again
now this burn method of real estate
investing is exactly what I've done to
get started when investing in real
estate and I owe everything so far to
this method I really believe that just
buying rental properties and keeping
them a long-term I don't like flipping I
don't like wholesaling I just like
buying something that produces cash flow
every single month keeping it and then
moving on to buying more of them this
way it's extremely stable you don't have
to worry about if the market goes down
or if the market goes up you don't
really care what the home's value is
beyond refinancing it in the short term
you really just care that it makes money
every single month and that is exactly
how you can get rich while owning and
investing in real estate now this is
something that does not happen overnight
keep in mind I am 10 years into this
this is something I believe you can
build up over a decade
it's not something you can easily do
over a year or two or maybe even three
or four years this is probably 7 to 10
years worth of work but this is work
that will pay off tremendously in the
future this is work you set up once you
get it right once and it produces cash
flow for basically the rest of your life
