Description
Flipping with no money down... in Hawaii? You heard that right.Greg Gaudet actually considers himself "risk-averse" and still holds a full-time job, but he's able to make nice chunks of change by hustling to find deals and managing rehabs for Brandon's team on Maui.Today, Greg walks us through his journey from "rock bottom," including bouts with addiction and homelessness, to living the life of his dreams, buying a Porsche cash, and owning a handful of properties free and clear. You'll learn the right way to approach investing in condos, how to bring value to a potential partner or mentor, how Greg manages risk by keeping his living expenses low, and the mindset shifts that allowed him to 1) get clean and 2) "get out of his own way" in the real estate business.This is truly one of the most powerful stories we've told on the BiggerPockets Real Estate Podcast, and it's guaranteed to get your wheels spinning!In This Episode We Cover:How tragedy shaped much of Greg's early yearsBad advice he received when jumping into investingWhat to look for (and avoid) when investing in condosHow Greg bought a condo for less than 50¢ on the dollarHow he and Brandon structure their flip dealsHow anyone can flip without risk—if they're willing to workGreg's "why" (and his paid-for Porsche)How to approach a mentor without making it awkwardAnd SO much more!Links from the ShowBiggerPockets ForumsBiggerPockets BookstoreBiggerPockets PodcastBiggerPockets CalculatorsBiggerPockets Podcast 302: Making $100k/Deal Using Other People’s Money, Time & Experience with Cory NemotoCalculating Numbers on a Rental Property [Using The Four Square Method!]Condominium Council of MauiBiggerPockets EventsGrant Cardone on Multifamily Investing and Why You Should Never Buy a House!Open Letter MarketingBiggerPockets Podcast 194: Achieving Impressive Spreads Through High-End Flips with Justin SilverioCallPorterDeal MachineKECO CapitalOpen Door CapitalGobundanceBiggerPockets Podcast 226: From “D-Student” to $400,000 in Annual Rental Property Cash Flow with David OsbornAudiblePremier Restoration HawaiiBrandon's InstagramDavid's InstagramCheck the full show notes here: http://biggerpockets.com/show385See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
