We know—everyone has told you to go to the bigger, growing cities where you can chase appreciation, but today’s guest might change your mind. He was able to scale to over twenty rental properties in just a few years, all by buying in his rural Ohio town that you’ve probably never heard of. Even better? He bought the rentals with none of his own money, AND he was cash-flowing THOUSANDS per month. So how do you do it, too? Josh Bauerle tried to invest in real estate back in 2006. What was supposed to be a “quick flip” turned into a thirteen-year investment, which (thankfully) made a bit of money by the end. After taking a decade off from real estate investing, he got back in the game, first by buying a rental from his father and then by purchasing a twelve-unit real estate portfolio from a local friend. He then scaled FAST to a serious amount of rentals, all in a tiny town with a small population. After that, he stumbled upon the best-kept cash flow secret in real estate investing: section 8 rentals. Today, Josh is sharing how he did it without using his own money, and how you can do it, too, whether you’re in a sizable city or a small town.
