Late Start? Here’s How You Can Still Retire With Real Estate

Episode #777

Think it’s too late to retire with real estate? Maybe you’re in your forties, fifties, or sixties and have decided that now is the time to put passive income first. With retirement coming up in a couple of decades (or even years), what can you do to build the nest egg that’ll allow you to enjoy your time away from work? Is it even possible to retire with rentals if you didn’t start in your twenties or thirties? For those tired of the traditional route to retirement, stick around!

You’ve hit the jackpot on this Seeing Greene show; it’s episode number 777! But, unlike a casino, everything here is free, and we’re NOT asking you to gamble away your life savings. Instead, David will touch on some of the most crucial questions about real estate investing. From building your retirement with rentals to investing in “cheap” out-of-state markets, buying mobile homes as vacation rentals, and why you CAN’T control cash flow, but you can control something MUCH more important.
