What are your driving forces behind investing in real estate? Whether you’re looking at the type of market, asset classes, or appraisal values, there are several things that go into the decision-making process when it comes to buying a property.  Having your own real estate investing thesis will give you that basis for your subsequent buys. It also helps to glean insights from other investors who have tried and tested theirs. On today’s episode, Ryan Goldfarb, the co-founder of Liberty Hudson Solutions, which specializes in short-term rental property management in New Jersey, shares his thesis that led him and his partner to not just invest but also scale.  Bought his first rental property with his brother in 2013, Ryan ultimately jumped into real estate investing full-time in 2016. Find out why they have gone bananas in Atlantic City, although they’ve already invested all over New Jersey, as well as in New Haven, Connecticut, and some other areas. In this episode, you will hear: Ryan’s introduction to real estate investing Things to consider when deciding on your first property An opportunity for appreciation in supply-constrained sub-markets How they ended up focusing on Atlantic City The magic of clustering The benefits of investing in Opportunity Zones 3 things you need to know about short-term rentals Subscribe and Review Have you subscribed to our podcast?
