In today’s throwback Thursday episode, Marco answers a question from Kelliane — an attorney-turned-entrepreneur who recently exited her eCommerce business and is now diving into consulting, podcasting, and building passive income through real estate. With her husband earning a high W-2 income in medical device sales, they’re exploring passive strategies like turnkey rentals, multifamily, syndications, and hard money lending — all while aiming for financial freedom in 5 to 7 years.

But there’s a challenge: how can they leverage the powerful tax benefits of real estate professional status (REPS) with mostly passive investments?

Marco unpacks the pros, cons, and creative solutions that could help Kelliane and others in similar situations get the best of both worlds — passive income and major tax savings.

👉 Don’t miss this deep dive into strategic real estate investing, tax optimization, and financial freedom!

In this episode, we dive deep into the real-world strategy of buying properties with owner financing—a powerful tool for real estate investors looking to acquire cash-flowing assets with little or no money down. We explore the age-old saying "you make your money on the buy" and break down why that may not always be the case—especially for long-term investors focused on appreciation and equity growth. You’ll learn when it’s okay to pay full price, how to evaluate deals based on financing terms versus purchase price, what questions to ask the seller, and whether or not you need to disclose the deal to your lender. This episode is all about the numbers, the terms, and the strategy. If you're interested in creative deal structuring or you're looking to scale your rental portfolio smartly, this is one you won’t want to miss.

Show notes

In this episode, the host answers a question from Jade, who is considering refinancing a nearly paid-off rental to invest in more cash-flowing properties. He explains that this strategy often increases overall income, even with added debt, as long as the new properties are in good markets. A 30-year mortgage near retirement isn’t a major concern if the goal is long-term cash flow and wealth-building. Jade also asks about Airbnb or short-term rentals in multifamily properties, which can work well if the location has strong demand, but long-term rentals offer more stability. Overall, the strategy seems sound if the numbers work.
