170 – How To Use Renovating To Build A High Equity, High Cashflow Portfolio Fast

How To Build a High Equity and High Cashflow Renovation Portfolio

Renovating is addictive! It is easy to get sucked into the vortex of your current project with tunnel vision that can make it difficult to look towards the future. As a result, I have seen many people spend a large portion of their prime years trying to build up a portfolio so they can give up their day jobs, with very little success. 

They lacked a future-proofing strategy. I don’t want you to find yourself in the same boat. So, I will tell you the best strategies to build a high equity, high cash flow renovation portfolio – fast. Don’t forget to get the appropriate advice from professionals such as your financial planner or accountant familiar with your circumstances. You want to be able to minimise your risk and maximise your profit

Passive income is the goal of developing a long-term view of how renovating can help you achieve this. I spent many years being addicted to my projects without being strategic about my renovation business. I eventually realised I wasn’t getting to where I wanted to go. Over time I have learned lots of strategies to help me build wealth.

Listen to the podcast to find out which strategy doesn’t work and those that do. The best renovations business strategy will ensure good cash flow and maximise your profit. I have learned the hard way, so you don’t have to.

It’s such a generous offering and compared to many of the other property podcasts I subscribe to, yours is the clear winner. Perfectly suited to people embarking on a new renovator journey but equally suited to more experienced folk like myself - there’s something for everyone. Keep up the great work. Your honesty is so refreshing! I look forward to future learning and hearing more student success stories. Best, David Michos (And yes... a bloke) 😉”
