Real Estate Nomad™ in Santa Clarita
The NomadTM real estate investing strategy has you buying properties as an owner-occupant, living in them for at least a year... to fulfil your obligations to the lender for getting a low/nothing down loan with better interest rates... then converting them to a rental and moving into a new property.
Repeat this until you have the number of rental properties you desire.
But, how does the NomadTM real estate investing strategy work in Santa Clarita with Santa Clarita housing prices, rents, taxes, insurance and rents with today’s interest rates?
How quickly can you achieve financial independence using the strategy?
How risky is the strategy?
In this class, James will walk you through the basics of the NomadTM real estate investing strategy including all the assumptions we used for Santa Clarita and you can see exactly how effective... or ineffective... the NomadTM strategy is in Santa Clarita with Santa Clarita, California numbers.
BONUS: Plus, you’ll be able to copy the Scenario into your own Real Estate Financial PlannerTM account to modify any of our assumptions that you think we might have got wrong and see how that impacts the plan.
