Or possibly you’re seeking to increase past your bread and butter technique, however the considered bringing in or pinpointing a brand new technique is daunting and overwhelming.

If that is you, I’ve received some excellent news for you. You’re in the appropriate place.
Welcome to the BiggerPockets Actual Property Podcast. I’m your host, Henry Washington, and I’m right here immediately with my good buddy and one in all our seasoned Swiss military knife traders, James Dainard. James and I are going to interrupt down methods to use actual property to generate a number of streams of earnings and the way to consider the kinds of earnings streams you need in your portfolio. Additionally, we’re going to speak about how James received began with these streams of earnings and the way all of them tied collectively to assist him thrive as a enterprise individual and an actual property investor. Alright, let’s dive in with James Dainard. Why don’t we begin off by speaking about what do you see as the largest advantages to you and your companies by having a number of streams of earnings?
James:
Oh, I imply there’s huge advantages and it actually comes right down to as traders, we earn a living as we take our cash, we go purchase issues with it and we create earnings streams, whether or not it’s flipping a property making revenue or shopping for a rental property and making cashflow. However the issue is you’ll be able to form of turn out to be this money outflow machine on a regular basis as a result of how do you earn more money? You go purchase extra offers after which as quickly as you make it, you’re placing it proper again out the door. And once you undergo market cycles, and that is actually what I discovered, this was in 2008, once you undergo several types of market cycles, you need to just be sure you can at all times hold the liquidity entering into as a result of if a market slows down, it may be tougher to get your a reimbursement as a result of it’s tougher to flip a home, the money is on the market longer, it’s important to service the debt longer.
Your money flows can begin to actually amplify up. And so the aim of our a number of earnings streams is it doesn’t matter what market situation, we at all times have income and earnings coming within the door. When the charges shot up dramatically excessive, it slowed down our market. We weren’t being profitable flipping properties, we weren’t being profitable growing properties, however they had been a giant money suck. Our cashflow charges went up, began happening a bit bit. The saving grace on that’s our brokerage and our lending enterprise was paying us earnings it doesn’t matter what. And so it lets you stability out these income streams and actually undergo any kind of market cycle and proceed to construct liquidity so you’ll be able to proceed to speculate.
Henry:
Completely. I utterly agree with you James. So I received into this enterprise and my intent was to focus not solely, however primarily on long-term purchase and maintain. However once you’re new, you don’t really perceive how cash flows in a long-term purchase and maintain enterprise. And what you begin to see in a long-term purchase and maintain enterprise is that it’s not very liquid. Like your month-to-month liquidity isn’t very excessive. Sure, you make investments for cashflow and cashflow is nice, however as you’ve gotten a number of properties, one factor breaks over right here and you bought to take some cash and put and repair that, and your liquidity simply form of dries up. And so it could really feel such as you don’t have cash though you’ve received cash coming in at completely different instances. And so we began to flip homes as a approach to hold capital within the door and to maintain our enterprise shifting.
And what we discovered via that course of is there are generally the market is saying, Hey, it is a nice time to go purchase rental properties and cashflow, possibly not a good time to flip properties. After which that market may change on you and your market could be saying, Hey, it is a nice time to flip homes not so nice for rental properties. So proper now, midterm leases and flips appears to be doing effectively, and so we will shift our technique and focus extra on these kinds of monetization methods and it helps us preserve some liquidity and hold our enterprise afloat.
James:
But it simply retains the tap on. When the market slows down otherwise you undergo a unique change by organising completely different earnings streams, you’ll be able to at all times convey money within the door that money can assist you to astate liquid, however it additionally lets you continue to grow and amplify your progress as a result of capital is the inspiration to rising in actual property, whether or not it’s entry to capital or having capital. And anytime you’ll be able to activate one other faucet, it is available in and begins filling up that bucket with a bit bit extra capital and a bit bit additional cash. That’s how one can amplify your progress and scale back threat by investing.
Henry:
Okay, so we’ve most likely received individuals listening who need to get into actual property investing. Perhaps they haven’t began but and now we’re speaking about a number of streams of earnings and possibly they’re getting a few of this squirrel impact. So if you’re somebody new to actual property, how must you or might you be fascinated about a number of streams of earnings inside an investing enterprise?
James:
I talked to lots of people about this. You can begin to chase that shiny factor, proper? There’s so many new methods that come out each 12 months in actual property. Sure, I imply midterm rental, that’s fairly new within the final 18 months. You’ve ations, you hear individuals speaking about improvements on a regular basis, and so there’s all this stuff that come out after which what they do is earlier than they systemize their present enterprise, they bounce over and begin engaged on this after which they simply turn out to be inefficient. And so it’s all about focusing first. Once more, we began in actual property. I used to be 24 years previous as a wholesaler. I didn’t have a number of enterprise expertise. I favored to work, however it was about how can we maximize our time and each deal And what we did earlier than we began exploring that subsequent earnings stream, we needed to grasp the one which we had been presently in.
It wasn’t simply me as a wholesaler. We had constructed now a group of salespeople. They had been working beneath us. We had a course of, we had a system and a workers, they might assist deal with that. The extra systemized it’s, the extra time you’ve gotten freed up from there. It was about what’s the subsequent logical step and the way can we ize each piece of that transaction? So as a substitute of doing a brand new enterprise and getting distracted, you’ll be able to go, how can I add in one other piece? And it may very well be so simple as I’m an actual property dealer and I’m going to associate with a title and escrow firm and begin making a bit little bit of income on this title and escrow firm. I’m already promoting a property, it has to undergo title and escrow, all of the charges, go to a 3rd occasion firm and now I can white label and personal a part of that course of and make one other price.
At that time, it may very well be I’m an actual property dealer after which add in, I’m additionally a mortgage dealer. Now I’m promoting the property to the identical shopper I’m proudly owning the escrow firm, making a bit price there after which originating a mortgage. And so it’s about taking that subsequent step within the transaction as a result of that’s the place you’re already good at and that’s what’s labored very well for us. It’s how we scaled every little thing. We went from flipping homes to constructing homes, however we didn’t go from doing beauty to constructing. It was about beauty, extra of a normal huge rebuild than constructing. In order that’s the place we’ve been best and that’s how we created eight corporations on the northwest. It’s all of them praise one another.
Henry:
I need to ask you about these eight corporations, however earlier than I do, I form of need to echo what you’re saying. Perhaps say it a bit completely different approach. I really feel like one of the best ways for a brand new investor to deal with a number of streams of earnings is to deal with one stream of earnings. As a result of what you don’t know once you get into actual property investing is something you don’t actually know if you will even just like the exit technique that you simply select, you might get into this and assume, man, I actually need to be a repair and flipper. After which you might do your first repair and flip and go, you understand what? That sucked. I don’t need to try this in any respect. You may get into being a landlord and this occurs to a number of landlords. You may get into being a purchase and maintain investor and understand it ain’t for you, proper?
You may get into it and understand, man, I’m actually, actually into the renovation, proper? I’ve a development background, I did my first flip, I cherished it. After which after you perceive methods to do one earnings stream, you’ll be able to herald different earnings streams which might be both associated to the factor that you’re like or the factor that you simply had been good at. You may get into this and understand, man, I really like being a landlord, however I actually, actually favored designing properties. And so possibly it’s that now I must enterprise into short-term leases in order that I might design properties and furnish them, proper? You’re going to study loads. I see this loads with individuals who they need to get into actual property and they also determine to get their actual property license they usually shortly understand that having your actual property license doesn’t essentially make you an investor. And I’m not saying you must or shouldn’t get your license once you’re getting began. I’m saying let’s go deal with discovering a deal. Let’s go deal with monetizing that deal and also you’re going to study loads what you as an investor need to do and what you and investor are good at. Alright. Now that we’ve received the fundamentals down, how do you generate these alternate earnings streams? How are you aware which kind of earnings stream is best for you? James and I’ll break all of that down proper after this.
Hey traders, I’m right here with James Dainard and we’re speaking about how you should use actual property to show the money faucet up. So let’s bounce again in. Alright James, so that you mentioned you’ve gotten what number of companies now?
James:
We’re a bit bit hooked on the deal, so we’ve eight companies up within the Pacific Northwest.
Henry:
Are you able to discuss to us a bit bit about, in case you don’t thoughts sharing what these companies are and the way they’re tied to actual property in a roundabout way?
James:
Yeah. We’ll begin from the start to the place we’re at now. So the primary enterprise we’ve is an off-market firm wholesaling. We supply off market properties, we create project charges via that enterprise. We now have a brokerage that’s companies, traders and sources, properties on off market. We then have a financing arm, curiosity funding, which supplies the short-term capital for these traders which might be buying the property. That’s an issue within the deal. They want funding, we remedy that drawback and now we will fund all their offers. And a number of this a number of earnings streams that had been created with us was about simply fixing an issue. What does the buyer want? What does our enterprise want? How can we create and praise it in? And so these are our three service companies, however in addition they now generate leads and offers for our different set of companies, which is our flipping enterprise.
Along with our improvement enterprise, we supply a number of our personal properties for filth that offers us the stock that we will construct properties with. From there we’ve our holdings, companies, which are also depending on the brokerage and the off market and the funding for down creating our portfolio constructing, which goes to be the place we personal almost a thousand doorways into Pacific Northwest. We’re shopping for properties, we’re renovating them, BRRRR types or worth add, creating worth, after which creating that earnings stream of cashflow. So by simply beginning with wholesaling and increasing out, we’ve now created six completely different income streams. It began with the deal. If we will discover a whole lot, that’s your first domino within the impact. Now how can we ize it from there? Properly, we will purchase it ourselves, make revenue, we will purchase it ourselves, make cashflow, we will promote it off and make an project price your fee, after which we will do the financing and get origination factors and an curiosity unfold on this.
And so simply by discovering the deal, it’s domino down, however it’s all targeted round that inside system of we’re traders that purchase offers. Now on high of that, as we expanded, we had been paying out with these rental doorways, some huge cash and property administration and we would have liked it to run environment friendly. So we now personal a big property administration firm that companies our portfolio in to our traders inside that we’re promoting to from our deal discovering. And that now creates a income stream for us. And that has been the secret is in case you can improve the expertise, that’s the way you get the income stream. And in order that’s our focus. How can we make it higher, not simply earn more money? And in case you deal with making it higher, that’s how the income streams begin kicking in.
Henry:
What I feel is admittedly good about that is the companies that you’ve got are all tied to an exit technique in actual property. And the rationale I level that out is is as a result of the companies you’ve gotten are all issues most actual property traders are going to do. Most actual property traders are going to take a look at discovering a deal after which they’re going to take a look at how can they earn a living on that deal. They may take a look at discovering a deal after which assigning that contract. Properly, there’s an project. They may take a look at discovering a deal after which including worth and renting that property out. Properly, that’s a long-term purchase and maintain. They may take a look at discovering a deal and fixing up and promoting it. Properly, that’s a flip. And what you’ve gotten achieved is you’ve gotten taken all of these exit methods, you found out methods to do them for your self after which it’s not a number of extra work to determine methods to take that earnings stream or that exit technique after which make it public going through as effectively.
As a result of if it’s public going through as effectively, you’re capable of monetize it by having purchasers exterior of your corporation and you employ that enterprise on your personal private companies. And I feel that that’s what makes a number of earnings streams tremendous good is as a result of usually you’re already doing a number of this stuff for your self, however in case you take the appropriate steps to arrange your company construction after which make that enterprise public going through, now you can monetize that enterprise via most people and reap the benefits of having that enterprise in-house on your private enterprise. So I feel that’s an exceptional approach to take a look at methods to have a number of streams of earnings. It’s additional work, it will be a bit bit tougher, however you’ll be able to improve your income drastically as a result of now you’ve taken these inside issues and made them public going through. So one of many issues I need to speak about subsequent is one thing that you simply and I don’t do very a lot of, however we’ve a very good pal and co-host in the marketplace podcast who does do that.
And so when you concentrate on a number of streams of earnings, you’ll be able to take into consideration the lively streams like flipping homes, after which individuals assume that being a long-term purchase and maintain investor is passive, however it’s completely not passive in my thoughts that’s nonetheless lively. It’s not as lively of flipping homes, however it’s an lively enterprise. However there are passive earnings streams in actual property investing, like investing in REITs via the inventory market or investing in syndications. And so what do you concentrate on a few of these extra passive streams and including them to your diversification in your streams of earnings?
James:
I find it irresistible. I imply that’s our purpose, proper? Service companies, flipping properties, these lively companies, they require a number of time they are often traumatic and a few days you get up and also you don’t need to do it anymore. There’s been loads of days the place I’ve woke, I’m like, I by no means need to flip a home once more. It is a horrible expertise. However the purpose to get passive, it’s once more, you continue to want capital to start out constructing out your earnings streams in your passive life-style. In order we created these completely different earnings streams with companies flipping an lively earnings, we pull a portion off or I’ve at all times pulled not less than 20 to 25% off the desk and I stick it on this different bucket. That bucket is supposed to speculate increasingly more passively. But it surely’s about balancing that passive earnings too. One mistake I see individuals make is that they have a sure amount of cash saved. They exit they usually purchase their first rental property they usually’re speeding to get in they usually get a very good deal and it’s giving them a very good return, however now their cash’s gone. They can’t go purchase extra properties they usually run out of gunpowder. And so what I additionally love to do is stability the passive earnings. So with my passive investing, we’ve our actual property and our cashflow, which we’re at all times going to purchase as a result of that’s the key to wealth constructing. Lengthy-term wealth is made by shopping for and proudly owning property
Henry:
By way of majority possession,
James:
Appropriate? By way of majority possession. Properly long-term holds require capital for longer little bit decrease return, however you get the appreciation issue. The right way to get more cash coming within the door is thru doing onerous cash loans and doing three way partnership and passive flipping. Now I at all times take a look at the cash in my financial institution like a portfolio. The place am I attempting to be with my month-to-month cashflow? How can I allocate that? So if I could make 12% of my cash via lending onerous cash, then I’m going to go, I’ve this a lot cash, I’m going to place it right here that’s going to pay me this flipping me. And you probably did a flip collectively and we determined to associate. If I put up the cash, you probably did the companies and let’s say we do a break up that may make me a 20 to 25% return on my cash. That’s a bit bit extra lively.
It’s not, however the onerous cash pays me month-to-month. The passive flipping pays me quarterly primarily or semi-annually. After which we’ve the holdings which is a bit bit extra regular, the lengthy sport. And so I prefer to stability all of it out and as I need to work much less, I make investments it within the increased yielding, extra regular. And so over my profession, it’s about simply shifting the funds round and providing you with that passive earnings stream. So the passive earnings stream isn’t nearly shopping for and holding properties, it’s about creating month-to-month cashflow after which how do you allocate that out? Our onerous cash enterprise, the rationale we will purchase extra leases is as a result of I compound that curiosity loads the place it’s simply rising on itself. We take the revenue and I’m going purchase a rental with it. And so it’s about simply organising these completely different streams and it’s not nearly purchase and maintain, it’s about, and earlier than you go that approach, you need to understand how lengthy would you like your cash locked up for? What’s your minimal return and how will you get entry? Once I purchase notes and promote notes, I can get my a reimbursement inside three to 6 months. A rental property could be there for 2 to 3 years. And so it’s about simply balancing out that axis.
Henry:
What I hear you saying I feel is an effective way to form of sum up this a number of earnings streams for individuals. And primarily what you’re saying is a number of earnings streams is nice, however you bought to have a plan, proper? You bought to have a plan or it’s important to perceive your objectives as a result of in case your objectives or your important purpose is to generate a specific amount of cashflow, effectively then that tells you what a number of earnings streams chances are you’ll must deal with. And so in case your purpose is to generate a specific amount of cashflow passively and also you’re out right here flipping 10 homes a yr, effectively you’re most likely being profitable, however it’s not serving to you hit your objectives. In case your purpose is to construct up a specific amount of capital inside your checking account over a sure time frame and also you’re out right here shopping for rental properties each month, effectively you’re not going to hit that purpose.
I’m not saying both a kind of is a foul factor. I’m saying it’s not getting you to your purpose. And so in case your purpose targeted to grasp what your objectives are, then you’ll be able to construct a plan via streams of earnings the place you’re feeling like you’ve gotten a aggressive benefit that’s going that can assist you hit that purpose. So that you’re proper, if you wish to construct up cashflow and you find yourself investing a complete bunch of cash right into a syndication, effectively it took all of your capital and now you’ll be able to’t go purchase every other rental properties, you’re not going to hit your purpose. And so simply perceive your objectives and perceive what your timeframe is to hit your objectives, after which you’ll be able to take a look at completely different methods which you can piece collectively that can assist you get there. After which you are able to do it in a approach the place you’re capable of hedge and de-risk by having a method the place chances are you’ll be doing a little lively and a few passive methods all on the identical time. We now have to take yet another brief break, however stick round. Our recommendation on precisely methods to get began is true after the break. Welcome again to the BiggerPockets Actual Property podcast. Let’s get again within the dialog subsequent. James, I need to play a bit little bit of a sport with you. You down.
James:
Is there cash? Can I win cash?
Henry:
James, I must be attempting to win cash from you. I don’t have eight companies, however what I’d love to do is give new traders a approach to consider what potential a number of earnings streams they are often fascinated about primarily based on what it’s that they do. So I’m going to present you an investor who has one earnings stream. I’ll let you know a bit bit about ’em and also you inform me what different earnings streams that they may very well be fascinated about for that enterprise. Make sense?
James:
I like this. I like this sport.
Henry:
So I’m a brand new investor, I need to repair and flip. I’ve simply achieved my first repair and flip deal and it went effectively and I cherished the development and with the ability to make one thing good and we had been capable of get out and in of that flip in about 90 days. I used to be tremendous meticulous about my scope of labor and getting the contractors in there and getting it knocked out and getting it achieved. What different streams of earnings can I be fascinated about inside my actual property companies?
James:
Properly, I received one query. I received to get a bit little bit of clarifying. How a lot time does this individual
Henry:
Have? They received a job. They received a day job,
James:
Okay, so that they’re a 9 to fiver. They’re a 9 to fiver, okay, little bit much less on time, however they received the skillset to function a flip they usually made some cash. Yep. The subsequent query I’ve and I can then lastly reply the query is what’s their objectives to get to? As a result of that form of dictates what earnings streams you need to do.
Henry:
I need to construct up some capital over the following 12 months in order that after that 12 months I can begin shopping for some rental properties. Somewhat extra passive flip.
James:
So they should construct capital. So there’s two issues that I’d do. The very first thing is I’d proceed flipping as a result of that’s one of the best ways to create the very best return in my view. You may leverage it appropriately, you make the very best returns, you’ll be able to develop it the quickest. The subsequent factor I’d do is we need to construct extra capital to purchase rental properties and begin turning on that money stream. In order a flipper, you’re getting offers despatched to you on the common. As a flipper, you must also be networking with traders on the common proper assembly with individuals. What’s their objectives? How are you going to work collectively? How are you going to get referrals? Getting common contractor subcontractor referrals, onerous cash referrals, constructing that inside community in your yard. Now as a deal is available in and as you’ve made these connections, a deal which may not work for me might work nice for you, Henry.
And I’m going, Hey, my guys can’t do that. This doesn’t work. Properly, I received this deal. Let me create a bit little bit of income right here and go, Hey, I discovered this deal. It’s a fantastic purchase. I’m going to promote it to Henry and make 5 to 10 grand on that deal. And if I’ve 100 grand within the financial institution to flip homes, which is loads for lots of people, I simply improve my complete liquidity by 10% in a really brief time period. That doesn’t take me a number of time. I’ve a 9 to 5, I can flip my one home after which as a deal is available in, I can now create a income stream proper there. That’s going to be the only approach to do this.
Henry:
I completely agree with you. I feel it’s a fantastic technique. What I’d be on the lookout for on this state of affairs is how do I do extra quantity by doing much less work? So sure, you need to do repair and flips, that’s nice, however if you wish to construct capital, superior. You are able to do some assignments. Now I’m not saying go construct an project enterprise the place all you doing is assignments. What I’m saying is leverage your community to assign contracts. So me, I don’t wholesale. That’s not what I do as an exit technique. I wouldn’t name myself that, however I did assign a contract. I did it final week. So the way in which you might do it on this state of affairs is sure, you’re getting leads on a regular basis. What occurred with me, I received a lead in. I put the property into contract. I used to be going to shut on that property.
So there’s the distinction. These are properties that you might shut on and you might do a flip. I put it beneath contract, I used to be going to purchase it. Then I mentioned, you understand what? I’ve received 4 different flips beneath contract proper now. Let me discuss to anyone. I talked to anyone in my community that I do know flips homes right here. I mentioned, Hey, would you’re taking this one off my arms for this worth? They mentioned sure, and I simply assigned it to ’em. So it’s not like I constructed this enterprise the place I used to be on the market advertising and marketing these offers that I had no intention on closing. What we’re speaking about is in case you’re getting the lead stream and also you’re shopping for properties, you might then take a few of these leads and monetize them in a different way. The opposite technique I take a look at on this state of affairs is a complete tail. So you might most likely discover a few of these properties that you simply’re fixing and flipping and never repair and flip them. Should you’re shopping for them at a fantastic low cost, you might simply clear them out, guarantee that they’re livable and stick ’em again in the marketplace in as is situation, however at a reduced worth. So that you don’t resell them for retail, you resell them for lower than retail, however for greater than you paid. And generally you may make a very good revenue by doing that and skipping the renovation. And people are a few of the earnings streams I’d take into consideration in that
James:
State of affairs. After which you’ll be able to add a bit little bit of revenue mud on high.
Henry:
Subsequent state of affairs, I’m a purchase and maintain investor. I’ve a landlord. I’ve been doing this for about two to 3 years. I constructed up a portfolio. I’m attending to about 20, 25 doorways now and I actually like being a landlord and we’re our properties, however it’s getting a bit bit intense. What different streams of earnings ought to we be fascinated about for this landlord?
James:
So it’s extra about time at that time. So if it’s managing the time, how do I unlock time? The stress of it, there’s a pair methods. If I’m a landlord, I need to improve extra margin, then I need to scale back my price out of there. I could be an proprietor operator, take it over and accumulate that property administration myself. But when I’m a landlord and the stress is attending to me, then I’m going to go discover an operator. I have already got cash. I’m on the market shopping for rental properties and I need to unlock time. I would go associate with my property administration firm or somebody that’s related to it and say, Hey, look, I’m going to purchase this, offer you a few of the fairness, after which they will then take a bit of that and scale back the bills. However I assume that doesn’t actually create earnings at this level as a result of we’re speaking about constructing a a number of earnings stream. So now that simply gave away some. It offers you time.
Henry:
It offers you time although, which is
James:
Useful and the time can go create it. But when I’m an lively landlord, it relies on what I’m as a landlord. So if I need to create the stress of the proudly owning property, effectively possibly I created actually good companies. Can I create a property administration firm and work with a few of my different investor buddies and accumulate SD on that? Like Henry, you’ve gotten created a very good midterm rental enterprise. I’ve by no means achieved that earlier than. And if I’ve created that system, that is smart for me to rent you and plug into your system and you will get paid for that to then create that unfold. And so if I used to be a landlord, I’d go, what am I actually good at? What’s the properties that I’m best at working that I’m most systemized at? After which provide that out as a service to create extra cashflow.
Henry:
Couldn’t agree with you extra like in that state of affairs, I feel a number of landlords discover themselves on this place the place they get to that 2025 door mark they usually’re attempting to determine what to do subsequent. Do I’m going purchase extra doorways? Can I deal with extra doorways? And so a method to consider bringing in extra streams of earnings is remedy the issue of property administration. And that will imply which you can now begin an organization that manages your properties. You’re already managing them anyway, and you’re primarily paying your self to do it. Whether or not you’re doing it on the books or off the books, it’s costing you one thing. And so take arm and you’ll flip it right into a enterprise after which now you can provide, as a result of the extent of effort it’s taking you to handle 20, 25 doorways, it’s going to be the identical at 30 doorways.
It’s not that rather more effort. And so now you’ll be able to provide that service out to different traders and you’ll herald extra earnings by having your personal property administration enterprise.
