Real estate investing can feel out of reach when you have limited capital.

This course breaks down the mechanics of buying, rehabbing, renting, and refinancing properties. You will learn how to offset your living expenses by renting out parts of your primary residence and how to recycle your capital to acquire multiple properties over time. What you will learn: • Understand the fundamental terminology and concepts of real estate investing. • Apply the BRRRR method (Buy, Rehab, Rent, Refinance, Repeat) to scale a portfolio. • Practice house hacking strategies, including leveraging Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs). • Analyze property deals using modern digital tools to calculate cash flow and ROI. • Navigate fluctuating interest rate environments when planning your refinancing strategy. • Implement modern digital tenant screening and property management practices. The curriculum begins with foundational real estate terminology before moving into practical strategies for finding, funding, and managing properties. You will read through step-by-step written scenarios that illustrate how to structure deals and analyze market data. Designed entirely for beginners, this course requires no prior real estate experience or large amounts of startup capital.

Die BRRRR-Strategie war für mich vorher nur ein Schlagwort, jetzt verstehe ich jeden einzelnen Schritt. Besonders gut fand ich, wie House Hacking erklärt wird, um mit wenig Eigenkapital überhaupt erst einzusteigen. Die Beispielrechnungen zur Objektanalyse haben mir geholfen, realistisch zu kalkulieren statt nur zu träumen. Auch das Thema Refinanzierung, um das Kapital wieder herauszuziehen, wurde nachvollziehbar dargestellt. Dazu praktische Hinweise zur modernen Mieterverwaltung. Wer ein Portfolio aufbauen will, ohne ein Vermögen mitzubringen, ist hier goldrichtig.
