Would you cash out your 401K to buy an investment property?
In this episode of The Real Estate Mindset podcast, Rich Somers and I chat about how going against the grain when it comes to attaining financial freedom is almost necessary in any case scenario. In Rich’s case, cashing out from his traditional retirement account to invest in his first real estate property was a risky move, but this is a risk he took and it paid off in a BIG way.
We also chat about Rich’s vacation rentals throughout the country and how he manages those. From how he secures his real estate deals to how property managers in the vacation rental industry charge for their services, Rich gives us some great insight on how he conducts his business.
