Key takeaways from our chat with Jennifer
1 – Getting started with real estate
Jennifer bought her first house at the age of 21 – she dropped out of college to work for a real estate company and immediately fell in love with the real estate world. Her husband worked in construction, and together they started buying houses, bit by bit. They would buy one house, live there for a year and then buy a second house. They kept switching and used the BRRR strategy (Buy, Rehab, Rent, Refinance) to get the majority of their investment back. They’ve bought properties mostly in Seattle, but in other states as well.
2 – Renting out to disabled tenants
What makes Jennifer’s real estate strategy different is that she and her husband rent out to disabled tenants. They interact solely with a healthcare provider that helps disabled people find homes and provides them with healthcare assistants. The pros? Jennifer and her husband enjoy 35% more cashflow, no turnover and 100% occupancy at all times. The only cons are that they need to keep re educating new staff and there is usually more wear and tear on the houses. But overall, a creative and sound real estate investing strategy!
3 – How she created her ideal lifestyle
Since building a 6 figure passive income stream, Jennifer has found a new passion: helping other people build passive income streams. The real estate investing world can get lonely, and by helping others she’s able to make friends, help others and build a network as well. Nowadays, she works purely on her real estate network and organises meetups – the rest of the time she and her family and travelling the world and enjoying their passive income.
