Rick Harris 4 DOOR STRATEGY In Canada, only 4% of Canadians own investment real estate. According to Rick out of that 4%, less than half own more than three doors. Rick’s strategy is simple. Rick believes if you can hold four doors, and have them paid off. The income that those four doors generate can become substantial and assist you in ways you never thought possible later on in life. The great thing is with the properties paid off and generating revenue; you can decide to sell the properties or refinance and use the equity to leverage purchasing the next deal. HOW TO DETERMINE WHICH REAL ESTATE DEAL IS RIGHT FOR YOU? Whenever you are assessing deals, always do a financial analysis examining, what kind of revenue will the deal generate, what the cost of acquisition is, what will all the expenses be, and finally placing a contingency in the finances in case the property is vacant. Rick says to “not fudge the numbers” because numbers don’t lie. When Rick’s website goes live, he will have a tool that allows you to make an income statement for assessing deals. When examining the revenue the property might earn, a useful tool is Pad Mapper. Pad Mapper allows you to review what the rents prices are in particular areas. Another favorite tool to use is RentFaster’s map feature. Rentfaster will enable you to create a precise targetted search based on property type, amount of bedrooms & bathrooms, etc. For more information regarding how to assess deals listen to the full podcast.
