Let’s say you’ve got $40,000 to invest. You could split the money into two down payments and buy more properties or partner with someone with money and build a bigger real estate portfolio. But even though you CAN do this, it might be a better idea to stay a small investor. Why? We’re talking about it in this episode, along with some of the regrets we have from scaling far too fast.

Welcome back to another Rookie Reply! Today, we’re showing you how to run real estate “comps” to find the right rent and asking prices for properties, plus whether or not your new rental will have enough demand to stay occupied. We’ll also discuss when a house is TOO big to house hack and how to find tenants for a rent-by-the-room investing strategy. Finally, can you buy more than one rental a year? Yes! But be careful, doing this could put you in a dangerous spot (we’ll explain why).
