Leverage is the Answer.
“The use of a small initial investment, credit, or borrowed funds to gain a very high return in relation to one’s investment, to control a much larger investment, or to reduce one’s own liability for any loss.” (Dictionary.com)
Whether it be investing in real estate, which is a tangible asset, or investing in paper or digital assets (such as stocks, FOREX, or the latest craze cryptocurrency), the principle is the same. And, leverage can increase your bottom line faster IF the right investment is chosen.
A person can also leverage their time, money and connections to make a maximum impact and get from point A to point B faster and with less effort. We’ll discuss this after a quick illustration about how leverage can create a windfall… quickly.
Leverage is what catapulted my investment career many years ago, and it was a great learning lesson on appreciation and the leverage of existing capital.
At the time, Southern California was going though an upswing. The markets were appreciating nicely and I knew it was time to get in to leverage my time and resources for maximum profit.
I utilized funds from a recent home refinance to put a down-payment on a four-unit property, which was of fair market value, but a total fixer-upper.
Before I made the offer (beating out several others with a wonderful technique I will disclose in another article), I made sure the property would pay itself off from the rents. Important: I also saved some funds from the cash I had to do the work needed on the property.
Thanks to an appreciating market and our diligence in research in finding a value-add property, we soon saw amazing equity. As easy as this sounds, behind the scenes, months of daily work went into this.
To find this diamond of a deal, I had to be on alert for months, scour the internet for deals, drive around my target markets, plus engage in busy work on other deals that went absolutely nowhere.
By investing outside of California, the equity from one single four-unit property was used to LEVERAGE into 24 apartments – 4 four-unit buildings.
So as you see, here are a few examples of how leverage can be used to Maximize your Time, Resources and Funds.
It was wonderful to receive that $80,000 check for my efforts and to go from owning a small complex to a portfolio of properties in two states!
The rewards of LEVERAGE have been duplicated over and over in my life, and now I’m lucky enough to be in a position to give back this, and so much other first-hand knowledge, that I have accumulated throughout my 20-plus career as a landlord in California and other states.
Last year, we produced 27 events in nine states, which brings me to how YOU can leverage this.
