633: Seeing Greene: Is My BRRRR a Bust If Cash Flow is Low? 50:22

    <p><a href="https://www.biggerpockets.com/blog/cash-flow"><strong>Cash flow</strong></a> is necessary when<strong> investing in rental properties.</strong> Cash flow grants you, the real estate investor, enough leeway to <strong>pay for your mortgage and taxes</strong>, and save up a healthy safety reserve for future renovations. For new real estate investors, cash flow is probably the single most important metric they look at, <strong>but it’s not always a great predictor of a good investment</strong>. If you want to truly<strong> build wealth</strong>, <strong>generate passive income</strong>, and<strong> retire early</strong> (or rich), start looking at the metrics David Greene is talking about.</p><p>Welcome back to another episode of <strong>Seeing Greene</strong>. Our cash flow creator, expert agent, and investor with decades of experience, David Greene, is back to answer your most asked questions. In this episode, we’re touching on topics like <strong>when to focus less on work</strong> and focus more on real estate investing,<strong> why low cash flow isn’t always a bad thing</strong>, what happens when an<strong> appraisal misses the mark</strong>, creatively <strong>financing home renovations</strong>, and how much every investor should have in <strong>safety reserves</strong>. </p><p>Want to ask David a question?
