"Build-to-Rent" 101 and Why Building Makes You MORE Than Buying
Рет қаралды 180,313
Күн бұрынThough only in her thirties, Natalie Cloutier has built a nine-million dollar real estate portfolio with just eight properties. Her secret to success? The “build-to-rent” strategy that so many real estate investors won’t even consider. Most investors feel that the building process is too complicated, expensive, and requires too much effort to be worth the time. But what if this “build-to-rent” strategy allowed you to create your own profitable deals, make massive amounts of equity, and build wealth even in a highly competitive market?
After her parents shared their secret strategy to build wealth, Natalie realized that building rentals, not buying them, was her ticket to financial freedom. But how could she get started? She was a fresh college graduate with no money to her name. Thanks to a no-money-down construction loan, Natalie built her first rental property, a house hack, which ignited her multimillion-dollar real estate portfolio.
In today’s show, she shares her “super secret method” to “building” wealth with the build-to-rent strategy, how to CREATE your own deals in ANY market, what you can expect to pay for a new construction home, how to find land to build on, and the biggest challenge that stops most investors from getting started (you CAN get around this!). Plus, how she’s doing it all in Canada’s unbelievably unaffordable housing market.

As a builder myself, this is basically what I do, build STRs with cash, finance to pull the cash back out, then cashflow from the rent. New homes have such lower expenses and maintenance needs, much easier to manage and higher demand product. Also far easier to find a deal on building lots than to find a good deal on existing homes. The absolute best strategy for gains if you ask me.

I am also a builder and have been doing spec homes and currently building my first subdivision with my Dad. I built 1 rental and I love it. Everything you say is true. Infinite return since I refinanced and pulled all my cash out plus some extra. Only problem is my cashflow is very low. So I realize I need to build and keep like close to 25-30 doors in order to live off that cash flow since they will all be financed. Its the long game with rentals but im happy I can offset that with development and take the big chunk of cash home and reinvest in some rentals.
@brady_morgan 5 ай бұрын
@@Tkenny35 Cash flow can be low, especially with traditional long term rentals, although STRs in a good area can do much better. In the end, as long as you are pulling all of your cash back out with the financing youre still getting an "infinite return" on that investment no matter what the cash flow is, as long as it stays positive. So if you ask me its still a good investment. As time goes on, your mortgage stays the same (unless you refi) but rents go up, so after a few years they should be cash flowing much better and you wont need so many properties to be financially free. Keep it up, youre on the right track!

I have watched hundreds of BP podcasts and read 10 books from BP, this is the first time build to rent is mentioned. Given how competitive the market is and how expensive interest rates are, I found out that build to rent is the obvious way to create equity in real estate. I think BP should start offering more content on the build to rent .

Great podcast. I just started on my new construction on a commercial property that has an 1898 3 story Victorian in disrepair. My husband and I rehabbed and turned into 2 STR units. The property has an existing workshop in the back we building 2nd story on. Bought most items NEW at a discount building places for 90% less than retail. Wrong sized or slight blemish for multi million dollar homes, still new in package. I design around that. My husband does all the trim, flooring, plumbing, electrical including running the utilities and installing the new meters, I do all the architectural design and have an engineer that does full set of plans for $3k. We have 1 full time worker. I sub out framing, roofing and concrete. Purchased the property 2 yrs ago for $340k, have $60k into existing house, will put $80k into new build. ARV is $2+ million. STR income projected at $350,000 yr, not including commercial activities. It's a lot of work, especially dealing with the city, but the juice is worth the squeeze. All the properties we purchase have additional lots and zoning to add more units. A lot of turn of the century houses that are practically tear downs have multiple lots or R2 zoning around our downtown area. The properties are a giveaway sometimes because they have major foundation issues but they are by far the best bang for the buck if you're willing to do the work. Estate sales are also great because most of the time they don't know what they're selling and just want a quick close.

I think of this ALL the time. I build 10 homes a year already. A 1900sq ft home on land for 300k that could refi up to 500k. I think the best is to refi at 300 to keep mortgage down with better cashflow. Just gotta pull the trigger.

The cost of land alone in my area without being surveyed, cleared, and utilities costs around $600,000 to $1,000,000+. Much of the land and area laws do not allow multi-family construction. Say you find a piece of land that enables multi-family. Now, accounting for materials and other building costs, you can buy something built within the past ten years for a better price. Building makes sense in certain parts of the country, but here in my neck of the woods on the East Coast, it's hit or miss. You essentially need to be a big corporation or have multimillions to build multi-family around here.

In less developed areas seeing more rapid new growth (TX) there are rural developments where a developer paves roads and supplies underground power and water to each lot, puts in community amenities, and sells decent acreage within. The land comes at a relative premium of course but a lot more affordable than doing it all yourself. It's great when lakeside or near other interesting destinations.

From my personal experience, buying and selling has been waaaay more profitable and with less headaches than dealing with rentals. We had a lot of rentals and the maintenance issues drove us crazy. As opposed to buying a foreclosure or tax property, renovating and flipping for $50k to $100k plus and more. Renovations come with headaches as well but the reward is worth it. We are still selling properties at the top of the market.

I scrolled the comments to see if this was already mentioned so I will add a tidbit - as a Mortgage Agent in Canada (Ontario specifically), we are NOT capped at 5 year terms. Lenders WILL offer up to 10 year terms for rates however, the 5 year fixed rate is priced more favourably and is the rate most advertised for. Longer terms are not advertised although they are available. Not 30 years though.

I am an architect and did the build and househack recently in Bellingham, WA. We designed it to have a large (4 bed 3.5 bath) main home with a 1bed1bath ADU rental. I am hoping that the market values the flexibility of this layout, either a SF with 1 rental, or a multigenerational home (aging parents get their own place). The cashflow while we live here will be nice, but the big payday comes when we sell the home. I'm curious how much more this type of home can sell for over a traditional SFR. My next big leap will be to buy and hold a 4plex rental in Spokane, WA. I can save on the soft cost (being architect and GC), but the challenge will be the upfront capital for land/initial build costs. Hard money seems like a big cost with the high rates, but finding an investor could take a bigger chunk of the profits. Its hard to compare the two without knowing what an investor would take out of the rent/final sale of the home. Are there general ranges that are typical? Thanks in advance for the advice.

I am doing this same type of build right now. In order to maximize my returns, I am building with cash/equity from other properties and then getting a loan/mortgage upon completion. The mortgage is capped at 80% of the appraised value, but it’s still plenty enough (or pretty darn close) to pay off the cost to build and the land. With my latest one, I had to subdivide the lot I bought to make it profitable for me. I had a lot of money tied up in the land and land prep so a second duplex we essential to earn a profit. The banks, at least as far as I know, will only do a new construction loan if you go to them for money. If you don’t have enough equity, raising private capital might be worth a shot. You can offer decent returns on short term loans.

Not bad, but Canada is different than the USA. Of her five points that started at 7:30 1) New construction is higher value than old construction. Not the case in here, at least not in all markets. In my market new or old does not matter, only zip code, comps, etc. Debt is great when interest rates are 2%, but above 5% Dave Ramsey is right. Generally. New construction is not passive. And addressing 21:40 no, there is some pretty ugly new houses and there are some very lovely older houses. In fact I really love the homes built before WWII (excluding mill houses) far more than almost everything newly built. - But I do love her energy, confidence and 'move forward' drive. Alot of people can do these things but don't and some that can't but would. Also, despite what I just typed, she does make me want to experiment with new construction. Thank you.

Would love to see her books as this is not a slam dunk easy thing as she plays it up. Built several houses and they are an ordeal to say the least and take 6-9 months if you are lucky. Just to get the land you need all the cash or minimum of 60% down to roll into the build. Then getting the engineering and permits are another painfully slow process. Then after all that the 6-9 months starts if it passes the appraisal for the bank with more cash needed most likely. So all in you could have close to 1 year of no income but just cash and time going outflow. Now buying a current dwelling is over in 30 days without the 6-9 months of no income. Just not connecting the dots on this story unless Canada has some slush fund for the masses to do these projects.

It’s very similar to a traditional BRRRR. You only need to put up cash in the beginning to get the project started (or you borrow from a private lender), afterwards the bank refunds in progressive draws and at the end the goal is still to pull money out to reinvest in the next one :) Not saying it’s a slam dunk everytime and it can still be a complex process, but we generally prefer new builds over old houses

Bummer, I'll keep my 2.6% 30yr fixed. I bought 3- 2.5 acre lots and used construction loans to build out from blueprints from packages I purchased. Once C/O is obtained roll construction loan into mortgage. I was the general on each and walked in the door w/$100K each. Seems new construction builds equity faster than existing while attracting tenets easier. I lived in each a few years before starting a new property over again.

If you're in the US you should look into exiting some to take advantage for the primary capital gain rule. Better to take the adjusted basis and build a new rental when you can.

But renewing rates means starting over each time with interest first then principal so technically these are adjustable interest only loans. awful.

Not as a landlord. The easiest rent increases I do are waiting until March every other year when my taxes change, then I pring the new tax statement to show the tenant. When they do some new housing affordability program that runs up my cost I pass those along also. Tenants pay the taxes and expenses not the landlord.

I wouldn't rent a "hacked" house because the owner lives right there next door and that makes life miserable. Renters have lives, they need to be able to have celebrations, make noise, play music and be normal people and not creep around like a mouse, worried about the landlord Always. People like this who build housing stock that will make certain people (not the owners) live abbreviated lives are making people's lives worse. Places where people can truly live need to either be an apartment building where the owner does not live on the premises, or the owner is an impersonal corporation, where the apartments are well insulated from one another, or a detached house that doesn't share walls with other houses, that has a land buffer in between so that there is enough space to actually live like a normal human being. I won't rent from someone who even lives in the same town because I don't want the landlord just coming by whenever.
