The Guide to Financial Freedom Through Small Multifamily Investing

Small multifamily investing is one of the fastest ways to reach financial freedom through real estate. With just a few multifamily rental properties, you can create passive income streams that’ll allow you to retire from your W2 job, go full-time into real estate investing, or have enough money to do whatever you want, whenever you want. Don’t think it’s still possible? Dave Meyer, multifamily investor and VP of Data and Analytics at BiggerPockets, may change your mind.

Dave started investing in real estate by buying a couple of small multifamily rentals within a block of each other. He lived in one of the units while renting out the others, allowing him to live for free and collect some sizable cash flow. Now, years later, Dave is collecting around $5,000 per MONTH from just these two properties. And if you invest in small multifamily rentals, you could experience the same cash flow!
