DS07 | This entrepreneur went from 6 units - 76 apartment building deals in just 4 years | Andrew Campbell

Andrew started off with a duplex, fourplex, and a single family. They didn't know what they were doing at first, but still jumped and leverage a friend who is a broker. Today, Andrew and his brother have built up a portfolio of 76 units.

His goal shifted from having financial freedom via real estate to make a career in real estate. The shift resulted in Andrew quitting his corporate job and doing real estate full time to build out a bigger portfolio and chase big apartment deals.

After he started taking care of his dad, who was sick at the time, Andrew started questioning his career trajectory and looking for an avenue to make passive income. It got to a point in which Andrew was excited about his side hustle than his actual 9-5 corporate job. If you do what you love, you don't work a day for the rest of your life.

He used a Cash-out Refi and HELOC on that first property to buy his second investment property, a Triplex - also 20 min from NYC. Together the two properties appraise for $1Million dollars, and will gross over $100k in annual rents. He is madly in love with his Wife and has two young boys.

Though he was married with a 6-month baby, Sunny is so determined to start the financial freedom journey that he and his family lived with his parents, saving half of he and his wife's income in one year. They achieved this by cutting their own hair and not going out to restaurant in that one year. In addition to that, they took their own lunch to work and bought cheap used cars.

In addition, Sunny sells pacifiers (binky) via the Amazon FBA program, grossing $30k in passive income last year on Amazon.

DS03 | From corporate jobs to full time real estate investing | Kyara & Khalil

Kyara and Khalil started their financial freedom journey in real estate in 2012 buying their first property in Hartford, CT, but they relocated back to Baltimore, MD to settle. After getting into the real world, they quickly realized that the corporate or 9-5 wasn't exactly what they wanted long term, so they spent a lot of time talking about what their goals were and where they saw themselves going and eventually decided that Entrepreneurship within the Real Estate space was for them. A lot of what drive them to real Estate was the ability to make positive change in the communities in which they invest. In addition, keeping that why at the forefront is what kept them pushing forward.

Kyara bought her first property one year out of college in Hartford, CT. Kyara and Khalil purchased the property for $26,000 with the intent of wholesaling it, but quickly realized that they didn't understand the basics of the areas and the other elements that came with wholesaling. So, they shifted gears and rehabbed the house with the help of a local charity. The renovation cost was $120,000 and bring around $2,500/month, and the house is now worth about $200,000. So, they now have the natural appreciation as well as the forced appreciation from the rehab. The Buy and Hold strategy really aligns with the model of community building as well as long term wealth building.

For those considering to invest in Baltimore but aren't sure, Khalil says the are a lot of institutions, a great art scene, and a beautiful harbor making Baltimore what it is.

Kyara and Khalil still continues to use BiggerPockets.

Kyara quit her job in June 2016, and she mentioned that the fear is big and significant, but what they did was ensured that their rental portfolio had the level of income and stability to be able to pay for their monthly expenses before spinning out.

Kyara and Khalil continue to give back to their immediate community by helping their tenants with resume building and credit repair. They consider themselves landlords with a conscience.

DS02 | Danny Randazzo | $1M on his 1st deal and how mindset played a role

Dan has work hard to create a lifestyle that allows him and his fiancée to have more control over their time.

Dan started with a property in East Bay area of California (Livermore) during the time when the market was recovering. He bought his first property, which he house hacked, for $475K in 2013 and sold the property 2 years later for $585k. He leased the rooms to two other people, so that allowed him to cover most of the expenses of the condo (mortgage, taxes, insurance, condo association fees, cable, electric, and internet), resulting in Danny paying about $400 out of pocket. This property was a great way for Danny to get started in Real Estate. Danny held the property for 2 years to avoid the Capital Gains tax.

Danny loves Triple Net Leases because the tenants, who are on commercial leases, are typically responsible for the expenses within the walls of the property while the owner is responsible for any expenses relating to the exterior of the building. His first commercial deal, two buildings with 3 units each (5 out of the 6 units leased), was purchased for $1,000,000. For this deal, Danny got a seller lease back, which means the seller paid Danny market rate rents in addition to covering the tax, insurance, and utilities for the one vacant space. Consequently when Danny bought the buildings, the assets were technically fully occupied. The Seller Lease Back lasted for 3 months covering Danny's basis to secure a new commercial tenant for the space.

Danny secured a 80% LTV loan, which means that the bank provided the mortgage of $800k while the remaining $200k is provided by the buyer. Danny was happy with the returns (Cash on Cash Return) in year one, which was more than 30%. This phenomenal deal was found on the MLS, and Danny gave an offer that was $400k under the asking price.
