The “Rookie to Real Estate Investor in 90 Days” series is back, and we’re checking in with three mentees as they go from newbies to high-net-worth through real estate! Our mentees have been busy over the past couple of weeks, so Ashley and Tony dropped in on them to see how their rental property progress was going. They touch on how to make a lowball offer, pushing past the fear of getting an offer accepted, where to find motivated sellers, short-term rental markets, and seller financing Q&As.First up, Brandon joins us as the newest real estate rookie on the show. He’s yet to get his first deal done and is still looking to buy a property, but he’s finding that the price isn’t matching his profits. Ashley and Tony walk Brandon through how to make a lowball offer and why you should always submit a price that works for your numbers.
