Located across Colfax from the Anschutz Medical Campus, the new development will include 370 residential apartments and ground-floor retail anchored by Queen City Collective Coffee
Aurora, CO (September 2024) – The development team of Uplands Real Estate Partners, The Max Collaborative, and Wynne Yasmer Real Estate (the same group behind the development of One River North) is pleased to announce the opening of The Broadleaf, a mixed-use residential development located within Fitzsimons Village, across from the Anschutz Medical Campus. The development includes 370 apartments and more than 9,000 square feet of ground-floor retail space lining the boulevard within the master-planned Village. Queen City Collective Coffee has signed on to operate a café space integrated within the residential lobby. Davis Partnership Architects is the architect for the project and JE Dunn is the general contractor. Kairoi Residential has been chosen to be the property manager.
The Broadleaf marks the second project opening this year for the development team in the greater Denver market. The partnership recently opened the iconic One River North project, a residential high rise in Denver’s River North Arts District (RiNo), which has garnered national attention for its unique architecture with a “canyon” traveling through its facade. Uplands Real Estate Partners and The Max Collaborative were both founded by members of the Ratner family, the founding family of Forest City Realty Trust, which led the transformative redevelopment of Denver’s old Stapleton International Airport. Wynne Yasmer Real Estate is a Denver-based developer whose principals, Brian Wynne and K.C. Yasmer, are both former Forest City executives.
“We’re thrilled to bring a boutique residential building with top-of-market amenities to the professionals who work and study at the Anschutz Medical Campus,” said Josh Hoffman, a principal with Uplands. “The medical campus is home to approximately 25,000 employees and more than 4,000 students, with a total of 55,000 people expected to be working or studying at the campus at full buildout. The Broadleaf will provide residents with a level of quality, design, and amenities not yet offered in proximity to the campus.”
The Broadleaf is located four blocks from the Colfax Light Rail Station, providing future residents with direct access to downtown Denver, Denver International Airport, and the southeast business corridor. The development features a robust amenity package including the only rooftop pool in the area with dramatic views of the mountain range, a state-of-the-art indoor / outdoor fitness center, coworking spaces, a pet spa, bike storage with workshop, a boutique coffee shop, and secure garage parking. A half-acre outdoor courtyard will provide an urban oasis with grills, picnic tables, lounge seating, lush landscaping, and outdoor lawns for yoga and exercise.
At seven stories, The Broadleaf is the tallest residential building in the submarket. It is the only residential building in the submarket constructed from light-gauge steel, providing superior acoustics and less sound between residences. The meticulously designed residences feature best-in-class finishes and offer one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments ranging in size from 500 square feet to 1,600 square feet.

The Broadleaf will offer second to none lifestyle amenities through vendor partnerships and the Kairoi Art of Neighboring. The community is also focused on a wellness theme.

About Alton Jones – In His Own Words
“As the owner of Rehabs 2 Riches, I’ve spent my life making connections. Right out of high school, I joined the Los Angeles Police Department and became a police officer. During that time, I had a lot of interesting experiences, and I met a variety of fascinating people. Now, 30 years later, I’m still a reserve officer.
In 1996, I joined Primerica Financial Services and became a licensed life insurance agent, eventually rising to the position of Regional Vice-President. A few years later, things changed. I saw families and good people experiencing tough times due to a bad economy and a terrible real estate market. If things had been a little different, it could have been my family and I in the same situation. I knew I wanted to help somehow, to give back. That’s what motivated me to earn my real estate license and establish West Coast Home Buyers, LLC., purchasing and remodeling homes to make them affordable for local homebuyers.
Working alongside my mentor, the legendary Ron LeGrand, 14 years of real estate experience taught me two things. First, rehabbing homes is a way to help others, giving them a chance to buy beautiful and secure homes. Second, by working hard and working smart, rehabbing can be highly profitable. These lessons led me to develop Rehabs 2 Riches, a series of courses and books designed to teach anyone how to seize financial opportunity for themselves. I hope you can join me on this online educational webinar.”

Dana and Dean D., owners of a small office building in the mountains of Colorado, were growing tired of the responsibilities of hands-on property management. Their building, held in an LLC, provided consistent income but required constant oversight. Eager for a change, they sold the property to a local investor, structuring the sale with an owner-carry note, which allowed them to finance the buyer’s purchase while securing passive income. When they included the note in the 1031 exchange, Dana and Dean opted to buy the note out, leveraging the proceeds to diversify their real estate portfolio across multiple assets. This innovative use of a note within a 1031 exchange highlights the complexity of the transaction and the advanced strategies available to savvy investors.

Dana and Dean seized the opportunity to spread their risk by acquiring a range of properties, each in distinct sectors and regions. Their first replacement property was a partial interest in a multi-tenant flex industrial and mixed-use asset located in Texas. Following this, they purchased an interest in a multi-tenant retail property in Birmingham, Alabama, giving them exposure to a thriving retail market. The third property they added to their portfolio was an interest in a storage unit building, also in Texas, providing them with a steady income stream in a historically stable sector. Finally, they rounded out their acquisitions by investing in a diversified portfolio of healthcare properties spread across the United States. This diversification allowed Dana and Dean to mitigate risk while enjoying the benefits of multiple income streams across various real estate sectors.

The transaction itself was not without its complexities. Handling the owner-carry note within the 1031 exchange framework required careful planning and precision. Additionally, Dana and Dean’s decision to identify and acquire more than three properties — exceeding the typical identification limit — added an additional layer of intricacy to the exchange process. However, with the guidance of Exchange Resource Group, LLC, they successfully navigated these challenges, emerging with a more diversified, less hands-on real estate portfolio. Their experience is a testament to the flexibility and benefits of 1031 exchanges for investors looking to evolve their real estate strategy while preserving wealth and reducing risk.

Webinar: Condos — Your Way To Financial Freedom
Tired of being priced out of the market? So were we, until we began to invest in condos/townhouses and PUDs (planned unit developments). The entry point was so much easier that we are able to pay cash on many deals.
This real estate niche has truly worked for us and that’s why we’re so passionate about sharing information about these type of deals. In fact, we sought out the best Condo educator we could find to teach this lucrative niche to our readers and network members.
Our educator for this important webinar is Linda Baumgarten. She is the co-founder of CTREIA, the largest real estate association in New England, the author of two books, and one of the most experienced condo investors we know.
By accident, Linda’s first rehab (buy/hold) property was a condo. She rehabbed it in a couple of weeks, rented it for monthly positive cash flow, and then doubled her purchase price only 18 months later!
Since then, she has purchased condominiums in multiple geographic markets from low end to luxury units. More importantly, her students have found massive success buying condos with little to no experience.
Be sure to invest time in your REI education by attending this complimentary live webinar this coming Saturday, September 28th,10 AM Pacific Time / 1 PM Eastern Time.
Investors will learn:
How to buy a condo with little or none of your own money
Which condos NOT to buy
Case studies of a Rehab and a Buy/Hold Condo Deal that you can replicate
Multiple exit strategies: wholesale, rehab or buy/hold and even AirBNB
How to analyze a deal in 15 minutes or less
Please note this special webinar will not be recorded in its entirety. We want investors to be fully engaged in their education so be sure to join us live!
Once again, leading this online session is Linda Baumgarten, co-founder of CTREIA, the largest real estate association in New England. We hope you can join us this Saturday for a fantastic educational live webinar.

New Mexico Ranch Is Bigger Than Houston One of the largest ranches in the United States just hit the market for $142 million. The family behind home-building giant D.R. Horton is selling the Great Western Ranch, their roughly 500,000-acre cattle ranch in New Mexico. With about 790 square miles, the ranch is bigger than the city of Houston.

Record $70 Million Fort Lauderdale Sale Heads To Wrecking Ball A Fort Lauderdale home where the Intracoastal Waterway and the New River join just sold for $70 million, the most expensive home ever sold in the popular beach town. Located between ultra-expensive Palm Beach and Miami Beach, the prices on Fort Lauderdale condos and homes have been reasonable until now, but a surge of recent top-dollar sales has changed the market dynamics. The $70 million home is likely to be torn down to make way for something even more expensive.
LA Stilt Home Sells Over $1 Million One of LA’s stilt homes has sold for $1,075,000. Located in Laurel Canyon—famous as a 1970’s-era home for musicians, including David Crosby, Mama Cass and Stephen Stills—stilt homes were designed to take advantage of small, hilly lots otherwise deemed “unbuildable.” About 1,500 of these striking houses were built in California during the 1950s and 1960s, but very few are still standing today.

BUFFALO, N.Y. — The only biography of America’s most controversial lawyer, Legal Gladiator by Solomon Schmidt is the story of Alan Dershowitz, a poor, failing high schooler from Brooklyn who became the youngest professor in the history of Harvard Law School, where Ted Cruz, Natalie Portman, Mike Pompeo, Jamie Raskin and others sat under his tutelage. It is also the story of a passionate Zionist who advocated for Israel on the world stage and became a confidant of Israeli prime ministers, including Benjamin Netanyahu. And it is the story of a zealous young liberal who, as an old man, stood in front of the Senate to declare that they would be violating the Constitution by removing a Republican president he himself opposed.
As a lawyer, Dershowitz has had a major impact on the most notorious legal cases in modern U.S. history. From Claus von Bulow to Mike Tyson to O.J. Simpson to Jeffrey Epstein to Donald Trump, he has devoted his life to championing the bedrock principle of the American justice system: that every person — no matter how despised — has the right to a rigorous legal defense. Legal Gladiator explores Dershowitz’s rise to prominence, gives the inside story of his most high-profile cases and controversies, and provides a shockingly intimate look into his personal life.
Dershowitz gave author Solomon Schmidt unprecedented access to his personal and professional life, including his private archives at Brooklyn College and dozens of interviews with him virtually and in New York City, Miami, Martha’s Vineyard and Israel. This book includes exclusive interview content from Bob Shapiro, Jeffrey Toobin, Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert, Glenn Greenwald, Rep. Jamie Raskin, Eliot Spitzer, Justice Stephen Breyer, Mike Huckabee, Woody Allen, Noam Chomsky, Geraldo Rivera, Mike Pompeo, Megyn Kelly, Mike Tyson, Ted Cruz, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., O.J. Simpson and Donald Trump, among others.
About the Author
Solomon Schmidt is the author of eight books in a series called History Bites. He wrote his first book at the age of 12, graduated high school at the age of 16, and was described by Fox & Friends as “the youngest child historian in America.” In addition to running historical tours in England and Scotland, Schmidt hosts the History Bites YouTube channel, where he has posted over 150 educational videos and interviews, including with Jocko Willink, Gov. Mike Huckabee, Alan Dershowitz, Mike Tyson and Dame Jane Goodall. Schmidt has traveled to Tanzania, Norway, Iceland, Greenland, Jordan, Australia and New Zealand to film videos for his channel and has given lectures at nearly 50 conferences throughout the United States. He is also working to help expand education in rural parts of Nepal through the JAPA Workbook Initiative. He lives in Buffalo, New York.
“Alan Dershowitz’s clear-headed defense of the rule of law and his fearless stances on behalf of the Jewish people and their nation-state make him a fascinating person to study and learn from. Solomon Schmidt has written a captivating story that highlights Alan’s rise to prominence and his work on behalf of dissidents, U.S. presidents, and notorious criminals alike. This is a significant new biography about a significant figure. Do read it.” — Lord Daniel Finkelstein, OBE, former executive editor ofThe Times; member of the house of Lords; author of the bestselling Hitler, Stalin, Mum and Dad
“Alan Dershowitz has consistently, courageously championed the rule of law and civil liberties, even when the immediate beneficiaries are unpopular, and even when his principled advocacy has made him unpopular. His lifelong devotion to defending the rights of all people – no matter who they are or what they believe – mirrors our legal system’s promise of ‘liberty and justice for all.’ Solomon Schmidt has turned Alan’s compelling life story into a compelling book.” — Nadine Strossen, John Marshall Harlan II Professor of Law Emerita, New York Law School; Past National President, American Civil Liberties Union (1991-2008)
“The Alan Dershowitz I know today is the same Alan Dershowitz I knew when I was a student of his at Harvard Law School. He is a principled man who cares deeply about the Constitution. As well, his public defense of Israel and the counsel he has shared with multiple presidential administrations has helped Israel remain a strong and vibrant country. This important biography by Solomon Schmidt is an objective and fascinating look at Professor Dershowitz’s life story. It should be read by all those who care about the rule of law and the welfare of the nation-state of the Jewish people.” — Mike Pompeo, Director of the C.I.A. (2017-2018) and 70th Secretary of State (2018-2021)

“Alan Dershowitz is perhaps the greatest living lawyer in America. His knowledge of the law and reverence for the Constitution and its protections for EVERY citizen are unmatched. It’s been my privilege to get to know him. I have told him that, despite the fact he is a liberal and probably would never vote for me, I do ask two things of him if I ever call him in the middle of the night. One, take the call. Two, I’m guilty and I REALLY need him! He has lived the equivalent of several lifetimes, but somehow Solomon Schmidt has fit it all into one authoritative and compelling story of Alan Dershowitz.” — Mike Huckabee, governor of Arkansas (1996-2007); presidential candidate; bestselling author and host of the TV show Huckabee on TBN
“Solomon Schmidt has written a compelling and important book Legal Gladiator about one of the most influential and controversial lawyers and advocates of our time, Alan Dershowitz. My relationship with Alan goes back to the first class, the first day, I took at Harvard Law School, his Introduction to Criminal Law; without qualification he was the best professor I had during my three years at Harvard. It continued when Alan brought Avital Sharansky to meet with me in my Carter White House office, and her advocacy on behalf of her husband Anatoly (now Natan) and his helped lead to President Carter’s bold decision to declare in the midst of his Soviet trial that Sharansky was not a U.S. spy, which I believe saved his life. Alan also discussed Israeli peace process issues with me, and later spoke at my family lecture series. While I was initially dismayed by many of the defendants and others he represented, I came to understand that they stemmed from the same belief he instilled in us in our criminal law course at Harvard: everyone under our Constitution is entitled to a vigorous defense in a court of law or a court of public opinion.” — Ambassador (ret) Stuart E. Eizenstat, former Chief White House Domestic Policy Adviser to President Jimmy Carter; former U.S. Ambassador to the European Union, Under Secretary of Commerce, Under Secretary of State, Deputy Secretary of the Treasury, and Special Representative to the President and Secretary of State in the Clinton administration; and Special Adviser on Holocaust Issues to several secretaries of State
“Here is the case for Alan Dershowitz, the celebrated Harvard lawyer who has spent his long and lustrous life cudgeling his brains on behalf of America’s deplorable – murderers and pornographers, Jeffrey Epstein, Leona Helmsley, and Donald Trump (to name a few). He exemplifies the highest professional standard of a defense lawyer, committed to ensuring that no matter how vilified, citizens may engage counsel to stand between them and the state so that, in an adversary system, the law is not mocked. This frank but friendly biography is not written by or for lawyers, and it is all the more enjoyable for that reason.” — Geoffrey Robertson, prominent human rights and civil liberties lawyer; bestselling author of Rather His Own Man
“A fascinating account about one of the greatest lawyers of our generation. This is a must read.” — Jay Sekulow, free speech and religious liberties litigator; Chief Counsel of the American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ); host of the radio and TV show Sekulow
“Solomon Schmidt has written the first comprehensive biography of the nations, and perhaps the world’s, most active and famous lawyer, legal academic, political activist, and author, Alan Dershowitz. The reader will get an intimate picture of the unique life and career of this peripatetic figure, no longer an enigma. It will doubtless provoke others to study how this academic went beyond the classroom and the courtroom to become a significant world figure.” — Harvey Silverglate, renowned First Amendment lawyer; co-founder of the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression (FIRE)
“Alan is one of the most impactful lawyers of the last half century. He is a tireless champion of truth and civil liberties who never wavered in his commitment to his core values. Generations of law students and journalists like myself have been enriched by his wisdom, excellence and legal work.” — John Solomon, award-winning journalist and host of Just the News on Real America’s Voice

“Alan Dershowitz is a real lawyer who doesn’t heed the shouts of the mob when deciding whether to take on a client. Alan is also old-fashioned in the best sense: he doesn’t think the Constitution is just a piece of paper. Solomon Schmidt’s biography explores the highs and lows of Alan’s life in a gripping narrative. Read this book!” — Greta Van Susteren, news anchor and former host of programs on CNN, Fox News and MSNBC; current host of Newsmax’s On The Record with Greta Van Susteren
“Alan Dershowitz’s portfolio is unique in the annals of legal history, and Solomon Schmidt has told his life story brilliantly in Legal Gladiator. To anyone who values our Constitution and the protections it affords, I encourage you to read this powerful biography of an important historical figure.” — Robert Shapiro, acclaimed criminal defense attorney, co-founder of LegalZoom
“Alan Dershowitz is an American-Jewish hero who helped to pioneer brilliant, eloquent, well-reasoned, and extremely persuasive, factual arguments in favor of majestic, Democratic Israel. All of us who follow in Alan’s footsteps of dedicating our lives to stopping the defamation and libel of the glorious Jewish state are in his debt for his courage and fortitude. Solomon Schmidt has written a moving and intriguing biography of my friend Alan. In a world where few have the courage to speak out on behalf of the Middle East’s only free nation, Alan stands tall and proud, courageously taking on Israel’s enemies and galvanizing its supporters. I would urge anyone who has an interest in this giant of Israel’s defense to read Legal Gladiator.” — Rabbi Shmuley Boteach, famed speaker, author and media commentator; known as “America’s Rabbi”; author of The Israel Warrior
“Alan Dershowitz is one of the sharpest, bravest, and most principled legal minds in America. Interviewing him is always a challenge, because you have to be on your A-game, but an enjoyable one.” — Piers Morgan, internationally renowned media personality
“A lively portrait of America’s most famous lawyer, revealing the funny and endearing man behind the legal theories, the celebrity clients, and the colorful controversies.” — Steven Pinker, Johnstone Professor of Psychology, Harvard University; bestselling author of Rationality
“Legal Gladiator: The Life of Alan Dershowitz reads like a legal thriller on a roller coaster. Perhaps no other lawyer in American history has taught more high-profile and influential legal and public figures in the past fifty years, nor provided counsel in more controversial court cases that dominated popular culture in their day. From his bully pulpit at Harvard, where he taught more than 10,000 students, to arguing before the high and mighty benches of the Supreme Court, no American jurist has elicited more media coverage, passionate resistance, and support, as well as abandonment by former friends, than Alan Dershowitz. Solomon Schmidt’s authorized biography reveals the flesh and blood man behind the glitter and lights, a humorous, generous and personable friend to many, a combative, fearless, and principled legal genius of international reputation, and an ardent defender of the nation of Israel. Given unprecedented personal access to Professor Dershowitz’s life, including close family and friends in America and Israel, as well as former students, high-profile clients, and opponents, historian Solomon Schmidt has revealed the life of a man whose influence will help define the turbulent second half of the 20th Century and the opening decades of the 21st.” — William Potter, distinguished tour leader, speaker and American historian
“At last, people can see the full, unique life story of Alan Dershowitz! In this notable biography, Solomon Schmidt not only chronicled the major criminal cases of this outstanding lawyer but also brought to light incredible accounts of Alan’s work on behalf of numerous persecuted Jews in the Soviet Union. As one of these Jews, I spent almost a decade in the Soviet Prison. Among many people from all over the world who fought for my release, Alan Dershowitz made his unique and very important contribution. Legal Gladiator should be read by freedom-loving people everywhere.” — Natan Sharansky, legendary human rights advocate; Soviet dissident; former Deputy Prime Minister of Israel (2001-2003); awardee of the Presidential Medal of Freedom
“Solomon Schmidt has written a captivating book about one of the most dynamic, intelligent, and influential lawyers in U.S. history. Many lawyers, myself included, have been indelibly impacted by his unique career. His well-known cases have defined the last fifty years of the American justice system, and his work on behalf of Soviet Jewry is an incredible story of compassion and defiance in the face of an oppressive government. Solomon has skillfully recounted Alan’s life in Legal Gladiator, and the result is a fascinating, inspiring story.” — Arthur Aidala, noted criminal defense lawyer; host of the radio show The Arthur Aidala Power Hour
“For better or worse (worse), Alan Dershowitz has been one of the most famous and influential lawyers and political activists for decades. He has also had a rich and complex life. It is long past time for a critically rigorous biography that reveals the truth about Dershowitz’s work and character, and Solomon Schmidt has delivered that in gripping prose based on rigorous research. A must-read for those who want to understand how America produces over-sized, corrupting and relentlessly loud public figures.” — Glenn Greenwald, Pulitzer-Prize winning journalist; host of the popular Rumble show System Update: bestselling author of No Place to Hide: Edward Snowden, the NSA and the U.S. Surveillance State

Please review this special invitation to our new webinar.
ONLINE EVENT FOR OUR INVESTORS: Make Money Flipping and Holding Condos/Townhouses/PUDs — Learn About this Niche
Do you want to make those big profits from rehabbing, but don’t know anything about construction? Do you like the idea of passive income, but don’t like shoveling sidewalks and mowing lawns?
If so, be sure to join our next LIVE webinar this upcoming Saturday, September 21st, and learn why this is the best time to buy condos in today’s hot market!
Webinar: Condos — Your Way To Financial Freedom
Tired of being priced out of the market? So were we, until we began to invest in condos/townhouses and PUDs (planned urban developments). The entry point was so much easier that we are able to pay cash on many deals.
This real estate niche has truly worked for us and that’s why we’re so passionate about sharing information about these type of deals. In fact, we sought out the best Condo educator we could find to teach this lucrative niche to our readers and network members.
Our educator for this important webinar is Linda Baumgarten. She is the co-founder of CTREIA, the largest real estate association in New England, the author of two books, and one of the most experienced condo investors we know.
By accident, Linda’s first rehab (buy/hold) property was a condo. She rehabbed it in a couple of weeks, rented it for $350 per month positive cash flow, and then doubled her purchase price only 18 months later!
Since then, she has purchased condominiums in multiple geographic markets from low end to luxury units. More importantly, her students have found massive success buying condos with little to no experience.
Be sure to invest time in your REI education by attending this complimentary live webinar this coming Saturday, September 21st,10 AM PT / 1 PM ET.
Investors will learn:
How to buy a condo with little or none of your own money
Which condos NOT to buy
Case studies of a Rehab and a Buy/Hold Condo Deal that you can replicate
Multiple exit strategies: wholesale, rehab or buy/hold and even AirBNB
How to analyze a deal in 15 minutes or less
Please note this special webinar will not be recorded in its entirety. We want investors to be fully engaged in their education so be sure to join us live! Once again, leading this online session is Linda Baumgarten, co-founder of CTREIA, the largest real estate association in New England.
We hope you can join us this Saturday for a fantastic educational live webinar. Be sure to register below.

Understanding the value of cash flow in rental home investments cannot only optimize your investment, but also secure financial growth over time. This article seeks to demystify the multifaceted nature of cash flow in rental properties, particularly with the use of a 30-year fixed rate loan.

For starters, it’s crucial to understand the basic premise of buying a rental home using a small down payment and a 30-year fixed-rate loan. This financing strategy entails constant principal and interest payments throughout the term of the loan. The total of principal and interest (PI) payment does not fluctuate regardless of inflation. That means inflation becomes a “friend” to the owner, as it constantly makes all prices rise EXCEPT the fixed mortgage PI payment, as well as the fixed mortgage’s balance. As a result, with the passage of time, and thanks to inflation, the REAL value of the fixed loan becomes ever-smaller since the price of everything rises constantly with inflation, while the mortgage payment and balance never do.
Historical data shows that rental rates usually trend upward with inflation, on average. While inflation may seem daunting for many economic sectors, it is a boon to the rental housing market. Property owners stand to gain increased revenue over time, as rents rise but the mortgage PI payment remains the same, which positively impacts their overall cash flow. As the home value also rises with inflation, the owner’s equity rises as well, building the owner’s net worth.
Often, investors and real estate novices interpret ‘cash flow’ as the initial cash flow that occurs at the time of purchase. This perspective, however, is limited, and does not give a comprehensive picture of the lifetime behavior of the property. While the initial cash flow is undoubtedly an essential factor to consider, it should not be the sole determinant of a rental property’s value.
The owner of the rental home enjoys constant cash flow improvement as rents escalate due to inflation. While rental income grows, the principal and interest (PI) mortgage payment remains static due to the fixed-rate loan. This discrepancy creates a widening gap between income and expense over time, increasing the rental home’s profitability. Hence, an investor’s cash flow does not stagnate at the initial point of property purchase but continues to rise in a beneficial cascade over time.
Given this evolving nature of cash flow, it’s more realistic to consider it over the years rather than focusing solely on the initial cash flow at the moment of purchase. Viewing cash flow as a long-term component can guide strategic decision-making, enhancing the likelihood of generating substantial financial gain over time.
At the risk of repeating myself (and this is so important for our future I think it bears repeating), the owner also benefits from an ever-decreasing real dollar value of the loan balance due to inflation. The principal of a 30-year fixed-rate loan does not increase with inflation. Over time, the principal balance decreases in real dollar value, making the debt easier to handle as years go by. This phenomenon becomes even more pronounced when an investor owns several rental homes. Once the loan balances reach a low point, say 25% of the home value, an investor can opt to sell several properties. After accounting for taxes (even if no tax deferred exchange is used), the proceeds can be used to pay off the remaining loans. With the remaining properties free and clear, they can provide a significant boost to the owner’s cash flow, creating a more secure financial footing. That is also an important facet of “cash flow”. Many people retire powerfully at that stage. Even though the loan is called “30 years fixed”, we don’t have to wait for 30 years, a scenario like the one described above typically happen in 12-14 years.
Rental homes, especially those financed via 30-year fixed-rate loans, are long-term investments typically spanning a decade or more. In the initial years, the rental income may merely cover the mortgage payments and operational costs, with little left as profit. If interest rates are high and the down payment is low, it is quite possible to begin the journey with some negative cash flow. However, as the years pass, the benefits of rising rents and the decreasing real value of the loan balance and PI payments, begin to manifest. Over time, these properties can result in a substantial income stream, possibly to the point of substituting regular employment income.
The primary “cash flow” most people rely on at the beginning of their real estate investing journey, is their job-based salary or income. But venturing into rental homes investment can create an additional, and in time, a primary cash flow source that can revolutionize your financial narrative. Thus, understanding and effectively managing cash flow in rental homes can set you on a path to long-term financial stability and growth, turning the dream of financial independence into a tangible reality.
If interest rates are high at the time of purchase, the investor needs to consider that, in the future, interest rates can only do one of three things: they can stay the same, they can go up, or they can go down.
If interest rates stay the same, all the benefits of the financial gift called “A 30-year fixed mortgage in the face of constant inflation”, accrue to the owner. The PI payments get lower and lower in real dollars, as the rents increase. The principal owed constantly gets eroded by inflation, and well as by the principal payments made monthly. In time (usually 12 to 14 years), the loan balance is a relatively small fraction of the home value, and the owner has good equity built up, which can be translated into significant cash flow.
If interest rates go up, the same benefits accrue to the owner as when the rates stay the same, with the additional psychological benefit of feeling good to be locked into a rate that is lower than the market rate.
If interest rates go down, the owner can refinance the loan to a new low rate. Yes, refinancing is not free. However, many lenders build the loan expenses into the balance of the new loan, making it easier as far as cash expenditures. It’s a simple calculation as to how many months of holding the property it will take to cover the expense of refinancing. For the long-term holders (and I recommend that everyone be a long-term holder), the refinance expense will be covered in a fraction of the future holding time of the property, and will usually justify itself many times over.

When I talk to new investors, it is not uncommon for them to be engineers or managers in Silicon Valley. Such an investor is well paid. In many cases, they are married, and the spouse also works. I consider the initial overall cash flow in their life to be the cash flow from their salaries or business income. As the years go by, the property gives off higher and higher cash flow, as rents rise with inflation, while the mortgage PI payments remain fixed. After 12-14 years, in most cases, the investor may find themselves with several homes (some investors end up buying dozens or more, using 1031 tax deferred exchanges, as well as other methods, on route to building a large portfolio), with loan balances as little as 25% of the value of the home. They can then sell, say, a quarter of the homes, pay taxes, and pay off the remaining small loans with the proceeds. Now, with several (or many) free-and-clear properties, the houses provide so much cash flow, that in many cases the owner can retire well.

Have you been holding off on investing, waiting for interest rates to fall? Now is the perfect time to jump in. Interest rates have been steadily declining, even before the Federal Reserve’s expected rate cuts. Acting now gives you a unique opportunity to take advantage of favorable conditions before more investors flood the market.

Here’s why you should move quickly:
Lower Investment Costs: With falling interest rates, borrowing becomes cheaper, reducing your overall investment costs and allowing you to maximize your purchasing power.
Higher Cash Flow: As interest rates decline, your cash flow improves because you’ll spend less on loan repayments. This means more money in your pocket and greater returns on your investments.
Less Competition, More Incentives: Fewer investors are in the market right now, giving you the advantage of accessing better deals and potential cost-saving incentives.
Once interest rates drop further, competition will increase, driving prices up and making it harder to find great opportunities. Get ahead of the crowd and invest before it’s too late!
