How I will achieve financial freedom from real estate
I will buy a house for 5% deposit, about £20k. which i nearly have enough
live in it for a year(because if u buy and dont live in it, it classes as buy to rent and they want u to put down 20% deposit )
fix it up while i live in it/rent out a few rooms on the sly
rent it out for 1-1.5k per month after 1 year
mortgage repayments are about 750-1000,
So I'll use the tenants rent payment of 1-1.5k to pay down the mortgage repayments, and have 200-500 spare pure profit in my pocket per month
but that positve cash flow isnt the only profit u get in real estate. there is actually 6 wealth generation benefits when you do a buy-to-let
1. natural appreciation
houses on avg go up 3% per year in appreciation. you will get 3% of 300k (house worth) per year which is like 10k per year profit. but you only get that profit when you sell the house. but it still adds to ur net worth
2. tax benefits
"Main tax benefits of owning rental property include deducting operating and owner expenses, depreciation, capital gains tax deferral, and avoiding FICA tax"
you get to save money on taxes
3. positive cash flow
the 200-500£ positive cash flow I get from the rent money leftover after paying the mortgage repayments
4. equity
the tenant is giving me the rent money and im paying the mortgage with it, so they're paying off the house for me, and every month i gain more equity in the house. after like 1 year ill have 12k or so equity in the house. 12k added to my networth which can be cashed out when i decide to sell the house
5. buying a deal
searching around for a while to find a good deal and buying below market price, thats immediate profit already
6. forced appreciation
causing the house to be worth more, by force. for example doing work on it. adding another bedroom or bathroom, cosmetics on it etc
after the first house, i will buy 1 more every year and hopefully it will snowball
