How I Bought This House For $0

I’m proud to say that this property…was free. It cost me $0. I was able to buy an income generating property…in Los Angeles…for nothing. Here’s how - enjoy! Add me on Instagram: GPStephan

24 months ago, I began looking for an income property around the mid-city area of Los Angeles. I liked this area in particular because it was close to nearby transit, surrounded by several large new developments, it was only a 15 minute drive away from the beach…and most importantly, it was one of the few areas in Los Angeles where property prices were still selling under $1 million dollars.
After 6 months of searching, writing offers, getting out bid, and otherwise not finding a single opportunity - the perfect spot came up. And the price? Listed for…$585,000.
So I made them an immediate offer: I’ll pay full price, guaranteed to close…under the condition, that the owner accepts it immediately.
I bought it for $585,000…I put $150,000 as a down payment, and I got a loan for $438,000 to cover the rest.
Then, I spent another 2 months, and roughly $80,000 fixing it up. This meant, when I was finished, I had invested a total of 2 months worth of time, and $230,000 into a property.
So I went to the bank, and I told them I wanted to do what’s called a REFINANCE. This is when the bank will give you a new loan on the property, based on the CURRENT value of what it’s worth - NOT what you paid for it.
And the market value was very favorable to me…an appraiser determined the market value of my property, for a remodeled 1920’s Spanish duplex, was now $780,000, just shortly after I bought it.
So given the new value, the bank is able to give me a mortgage of up to $585,000, and give me back $145,000 in cash.
My current mortgage is $438,000
The bank’s NEW loan is $585,000
The new loan pays off the old one, and that leaves us with $145,000 left over after paying some transaction fees.
That was in 2017. NOW…I can do it again. I went from bank, to bank, to bank…to get a quote on a new mortgage. I was able to get at 3.75% fixed rate mortgage for 30 years, on a cash out refinance. The bank appraised it for $965,000. And given the new $965,000 value, I was allowed a $675,000 mortgage - leaving 30% worth of equity still in the property.
That meant…after all was said and done…not only do I have $290,000 worth of equity in the property…but I now SAVE an extra $200 per month on my mortgage interest payments, and I got back ALL of the $230,000 I invested, leaving a total out of pocket cost, to buy this property, of $0
Like I said, the first refinance got me back $145,000…and the second got me back $85,000. That was everything I had invested in this property…and it’s basically free real estate.
In real estate, your ideal situation is that you can control 100% of an income-generating asset…by having as LITTLE of your own money invested in it, as well. This gives you the opportunity to INVEST your money in other, higher generating opportunities - than keeping your money tied up in an asset where it isn’t actively working for you.
This is the name of the game in real estate…it’s to find a good deal, put your money in, make it work for you, refinance your money back out, keep the property…then go and use that money to do it again. And it’s by doing that, over and over and over again, that you can soon build up an empire of real estate, for free, by just…smashing the like button.

    His tenant is paying for the loan. Paying off a loan given at such a low interest rate is a noob move. He knows better than to use cash to pay off a loan early. He will instead invest it at an average of 7 percent compound interest and let his tenant pay the loan over time. :)

Unlike the average Joe, Graham's goal wasn't to buy this place to live in it, or even flip it. He saw it as rental property. He probably needs tenants willing to pay $4K/month to break even. Being a landlord is too much work for most people. Title should have been "How I got all of my money out of a rental property" but then no one would have watched.

    He really just explained why Cash Out Refinance is a good strategy when property values are increasing. Normally I'd ask him why not just sell the property outright, but if this is a rental he can't do that. So instead of letting that money sit in the property and do nothing, he took it out and can invest in other things. His only risk is that instead of selling outright, he takes the refinance, the property value declines, and he's left underwater on his loan.

    Basically from how I understand it is: 1) Have some down payment. 2) If you can find a good deal, buy it, remodel if need, then find tenants to pay for it. 3) Refinance later with a lower rate, and if the new appraisal finds the house appreciates, you have equity and some $ differences. 4) Just have tenants pay for it. You owe the house at the end while the mortgage is being paid by someone else. It is a paper game. The trick is getting a good property in an area that will have the property increase appreciation, this helps minimize the expends.

    it is not difficult to understand. His first round is to fix up the property to boost up its value and then 2nd round is that his property surged in value due to the demand with interest rate went lower than before. As long as your house value increases, you can refi your house with a loan bigger that covers your previous loan with the delta to your pocket. Now the delta from loan gets him back the money he put in and then he rented out the property to cover his mortgage.

    So he got the original loan of the 435k from a bank to get the house to begin with. He renovated it and got it appraised and got another loan of the nearly 600k. He payed the first loan with the new loan and the extra is essential money in his pocket since there's nothing left to pay. The extra 145k is essentially free money. Time went on and he went looking for a better interest rate, found one he liked, the bank got someone else to appraise it and he got yet another loan. This new one payed the one he previously had and he was able to keep yet another 85k which meant he broke even with a smaller interest rate. All that's left is to pay off the mortgage for the remainding 30 years and the house is his for free. It's sonething I would not have come up with but it's damn smart. For short, he got a loan, got a new loan that payed the old loan and he was able to keep some of the money, got yet another loan to pay the previous loan and this new one not only meant he broke even, it was lower interest rate

    @@rkgoals3447 He bought the home, spending X amount of his own money, with the bank loaning the rest. After renovating a home, the value of a property will always increase, so he went to a second bank for a loan on the mortgage, and after appraisal, the value of the home was MORE than the original loan. He used the second loan to pay off the first loan, and since it was higher than the original, there was money leftover, which he pocketed. Some time later, due to the growth in the location the house was in, the houses value increased because its location was desirable. So he again went to another bank for a loan, and after appraisal, it was also greater than the second loan. So he used the third loan to pay off the second loan, and the extra money went into pocket. Now, you could essentially just do this over and over, but the downside is that your mortgage will get larger and larger...and you must FULLY pay this mortgage off before the house is completely yours. If you can't pay your mortgage, you will eventually lose the house, and the bank that you owe that mortgage to will now own the house. This is why banks are even willing to do this. They want your monthly money (from the mortgage) and the opportunity to own your house if you fail to pay. I believe banks also get loans from the government for giving loans to people so there's that incentive as well. Paying off those original loans with other loans was more about getting money back into his pocket, essentially replacing any money he'd spent on the property. As far as his bank account is concerned, that money never left, but he now has that property. Shopping for the lowest rate before the 3rd loan was about minimizing the amount of money he'd have to spend per month towards that mortgage. This makes it cheaper to own per month, and when he turns it into a rental property, means more money into his pocket per month as opposed to the banks. Even though the first two loans to pocket money was a very quick return of investment, the money he makes over time isn't as lucrative. It's going to trickle in. But here's the thing, he'd essentially be pocketing several thousand per month, from a property, that at this point, he never came out of a pocket for. It's free real estate. Do this 5 times and you could potentially have $15,000 "trickle in" every month (assuming $3k mo. rent) and any money earned doesn't go to anyone but him.

Imagine what the property will be worth in 30 Years (when the mortgage is paid in full). To put into perspective, the playboy mansion was bought for 1,1 million dollars in -79 and 45 years later sold for 100 million dollars. Of course, it's a one of a kind property but just imagine how much this one it would cost. Wouldn't be surprised if it cost at LEAST 5-10 million by then.

    He left out a lot of information. He found a rental property that was for sale for less than it's value. It took him six months of watching each property as it hit market and reacting immediately to determine if each property would be the one that was undervalued. That's a lot of time and work. 30 minutes after this house hit the market he was there checking it out and decided this is the one. He must have had financing already lined up because he offered them full price and was under contract before anyone else made an offer. Not everyone can do that. Then he remodels the house and rents it out. Now that the house is remodeled it is worth more money so instead of waiting for the money he is earning from rent to earn back his down payment; he basically moves his mortgage to another bank. Since the property has a higher value now he gets a bigger loan that not only pays off the first mortgage, it gives him cash (cash out loan). Now the money he put in his pocket is still borrowed but he got a better rate on the loan so his payments are actually lower and the renters are paying more than enough to cover the payments. Then as property values rise in that area and interest rates continue to fall; he does the same thing a second time. Now the two cash outs he has taken equal the money he put down and the money he paid for the remodel and the renters are paying enough to cover the mortgage. Now the only reason he was able to do this is that he located an undervalued property and managed to get it before anyone else and property values were rising as interest rates were falling and he was able to rent the property for more than the expenses of owning the property.

He offered no hassle purchase (Meet Kevin talked about this too in a way with a direct to owner check and if he walked away the owner keeps the money). But you gotta really know how to read a building for value (and I don't 😂 not yet anyway) I'm in a 4 apartment building with a store front in NYC so it might be hard but I prob go for it. Plus the owner owns the building outright so he could be the bank if he wants. For him he knows he gets an immediate deal, and I get an affordable building (well for NYC anyway).

This is what I mean a real " buy a home with $0". Of course, after the financial crisis, government has tightened the rules of borrowing. Nothing down is only a dream now unless you can borrow money from the private lender at a reasonable rate. Finally you can also make money with your hard labor work or from social media like KZread with your intelligent creations.

    Guys I UNDERSTOOD everything. Summary : He bought a property for $585,000 He paid $150,000 down payment (means he paid that money ) He mortgage $438,000 from bank (means he took loan from bank) Now he invested $80,000 to repair the house So the price of the house increased to $780,000 (because he repaired the house ) He again took loan from bank of $665,000 Now he paid for old loan($585,000) and he has $145,000 money left So... He used the extra money to pay for initial investment ($150,000 when buying the house + $80,000 for repairing ) Now after one year later the price of the property increased and now the property costs $965,000 So.. He is eligible to take loan of $675,000 and he did take this loan for less interest. And he paid his old loan of $585,000 for new loan i.e $675,000 Now he has $85,000 extra money left so he used it to settle initial payment ($150,000 +$80,000- $145,000- $85,000 =0) Moral of the story: he took three consecutive loans to pay previous loan as well as with them he paid himself his initial investment.. Basically he took a loan of $675,000 and he have to pay it in 30 years (and with thet loan he bought a house ).😊

More immigrants per capita than the US come in every year, and they need somewhere to live. Also much less overbuilt compared to the US. Edit: Everything Graham mentions in this video is doable in Canada because I've done it before. I also completely disagree that housing prices are inflated compared to the US. There are many many suburbs and small towns that are growing like crazy, especially northern cottage areas. And it's reasonable to buy property from 200,000-500,000 in places like Barrie which are going through housing shortages so the demand for units is quite high.

    Ok, I feel like he is overcomplicating it, but lemme see if I understand... He's claiming $0 because: ($675k current loan - $438k old loan) - ($150k down + $80k reno) = $0 Essentially, you can forget the initial expenses and mortgage and just imagine he did $0 down and $675k loan. Really, he put $230k of his own money into the house a few years ago. He wanted the money back (free it from the asset) without selling the house. So, he had the bank give him a loan using the house as collateral to get $230k in his pocket.

    That really depends on what his new mortgage to rent ratio is. He probably spent like 10k in refi fees and pulled out another damn near 250k, even with a lower interest rate that cost him quite a bit on his ratio, he has also hiked his property taxes by 40-ish%. When all the math shakes out it may have been a very expensive enterprise, that didn't provide him with a lot. However if his goal was to keep cash free for other investments or to pay off investors or loans on other deals (and the ratio approaches 1/1 or better) then yeah, this could have been a fucking brilliant move. All depends on his goals, the ratio, and his situation; at least from what I can see.

    Robert Aylor If you have no liability from doing this in an c-corp it may be a good idéa as you suggest. But it seems as if he is insisting on people gambleing with their savings and lives to do do the same. He never states what would happen if the house turned out the foundation was faulty or if for some unforseen reason it was only worth half of the price. The downside could be huge. Then he needs cash too pull from somewhere else since you can’t just refinance to pay off the mortage.

As far as I'm concerned, you don't "OWN" something unless you can never again pay a cent and it won't be taken from you... i.e, the t-shirt I'm wearing or the used car in my driveway I bought for cash. Anything you're making payments on does not count as ownership.

    This video was a good lecture, a bit over stretched though. I hope the follow up video by the end of the year is about the cash flow it generates, that is, how collecting the rent covers the monthly loan payment, and leaves X amount of profit. Things I learnt, which I remember from memory since I didn´t take notes: Buy a propperty. Fix, improve, raise value of said property. Get a home equity loan to cover costs. Negotiate your interest rates with different banks. Repeat. (Not included in the video) Get that sweet rent money to cover monthly loan payments. And the surplus after that, enjoy the cash flow. Basically the core of the business. The only way you can step up the game and be more like the bank is if somehow you sell the house and provide the mortage contract yourself, at a very abusive interest rate with high montly payments for a 15 year period, way beyond possible rent prices, as well as including some sort of home insurance in said payment, so that you get more than what you could possibly get in rent from said buyer, and ultimately you get to reposses the house if they default on their payments, and you get to use the insurance money for repairs after, if needed. Although just writing that made me feel evil... Not a good feeling. Anyway, now you have attained teacher status to me, I must definitely take notes if interested or will be forced to enter the same lecture again. I can see myself building a nice guide with your videos. PS I did not go to school, but this is how I assume it works.

    I like the idea but to explain this to those who don't understand. This isn't a net income situation, it's purchasing a property at lower than market value, then refinancing for a bigger loan from the bank (possibly lower interest) and now using that property as collateral. This allows you to get back out the inital down payments/costs invested into that property. Do it only if you understand what you're going to do with the difference, otherwise you're better off just paying down your loan for most nonreal estate people.

    He basically converted his investment (down payment, remodeling, ext...) into a mortgage. In my opinion not free because you still have to pay it back. Original mortgage $438,000 verses new mortgage $675,000. The result: he has to pay back $237,000 more at the end (the video makes it seem like free money he got to pay back his investment). He could have just taken another mortgage right after the purchase on one of his other properties if he really wanted to have the invested cash in hand right away, basically the same result.

    He essentially IS getting free money to pay back his investment. He doesn't have to pay the mortgage back from his own pocket. The property pays for itself from the monthly rent it generates. It is actually paying itself off AND putting more money in his pocket.

    Assuming he keeps the house for 30 years the appraised value will either increase or it will decrease. In the event that decreases it will never decrease to the point of becoming 0. In the meantime though he has rented out for 30 years. Do the math at the meager amount of $12,000 a year * 30 years dot-dot-dot that's still $360,000. So technical if the house were two devaluate during those 30 years he would still have a $360,000 buffer. However that scenario is quite unlikely to ever occur. Furthermore I was using a very meager $1,000 a month rental income which I highly doubt is all that he is getting for this place. It's likely more like 3 to $4,000 a month so just multiply that 376000 by 3 or 4 times and that put some way ahead of the game in the event the property became worthless over the 30-year. And remember one thing in the end regardless of which way the property value goes he still has the house and whatever equity that house has now become which is 100% his after 30 years. It's not a losing situation. I would die to do this kind of stuff myself granted it still takes money to make money

    As far as the explanation goes in the video, his initial investment is all that he is stating he got for free. When most people buy property, even as rental properties, the biggest hit is the down payment, which cant be recouped monthly unless they have a golden deal like this. So Graham was able to do 2 refinances which payed him back his down payment and remodeling cost. Now he has a renter in 1 or both units (cuz idk if thats where he is currently living) that, due to his research, he knows will cash-flow and pay down his mortgage. So in the end, he is still paying +600k for the property (i think) but the money that is actually paying that down is his rental income, which you can think of like a dividend from a stock, so he just reinvests that into the property, and therefore is literally playing with the house's money. *ba da chh*

    Hi Samantha, incase you still wanted to understand this situation, I'll try to explain the best I can. Graham initially puts $230K of his own cash into the house in order to purchase and renovate it. As the value of his his house grew, he took his increased home valuation to a bank for a refinance, where the banks say, okay your home is worth more now, so we can risk giving you a larger loan. The reason why banks do this is because it's generally a win-win situation for them. If the homeowner pays their mortgage, their profit is the interest on the 30 year mortgage. If the homeowner for whatever reason cannot and has to foreclose, the bank owns the property, and can sell it for more than the loan they handed out, since the value of the home will likely continue to grow over time. Then the bank's profit is whatever the house sells at minus the mortgage still left on the house. All Graham cares about is that he has 0 of his own cash tied up in that house. His down payment and reno cost $230K of his own cash. Now, if you imagine the bank actually handing him ~585K in cash, for his refnance, he uses 438K of that to pay off the original mortgage, and now has 145K cash left in his pocket, so the total cash he now has tied up in the house is 230K-145k = 85K. A year later, the value of his house appreciates much further, so he goes to the banks again sees increased worth of the house and is willing to give him a larger loan of 675K. If you again imagine that they just paid him in cash, he utilizes 585K to pay off his 1st refinanced mortgage, and is left over with $90K (he said 85 so I don't know if my numbers are exact), which is roughly equal to the 85K he still had tied up in the house. Therefore, in terms of cash investment he put in, he was able to make it all back within 2 years due to recognizing a good house within a good neighborhood at a relatively low price. Since he now has the $230K back, he can utilize this amount to purchase another property where he can restart this process. Not to meniton, during this time, he also has renters who are usually charged more than the mortgage payment, so he's also making a profit while renters pay down his mortgage.
