BRRRR Investing

BRRRR Investing- BRRRR is an acronym for Buy, Renovate, Rent, Refi, Repeat. Executed well, this approach allows you refinance out 100% of your original invested funds.

The challenge with the BRRR Investing is sourcing deals that meet buying criteria and accurately estimating renovation costs and timeline. This approach also requires substantial initial investment including non-25% owner occupied down payment + renovation costs.

The BRRRR Investing is best for professional investors with construction background and adequate time to spend supervising the construction crew.
