Most properties don’t start cashflow positive. In fact, the first year is usually the least profitable. But your rental income rises over time while your mortgage stays the same (or even falls).
In this episode, Ed and Andrew explain why inflation is a property investor’s best friend, and how it steadily turns money-losing rentals into cashflow machines.
You’ll learn:
- Why the first year of owning a rental is usually the hardest financially
- How rent increases and fixed mortgages flip properties from negative to positive cashflow
- Real numbers showing how a property bought 20 years ago would now earn $388 more per week
If you’re wondering why investors have held properties for decades, this episode shows you the math behind patience.
