A 5 - Year Game Plan To Mortgage Freedom For Millennials - AJ Scott & Nicole Kichko

On this episode I welcome relatively new investors AJ and Nicole, who are young but are already on the right path to financial and mortgage freedom, and on the way to a very early retirement. They started investing only 5 years ago, already own 3 properties and are here to share their incredible story and journey so far! The strategy they’ve used so far is house hacking, where you purchase a home but either renovate to add additional rental units, or purchase an already renovated duplex, so that it actually MAKES you money the moment you move in. Your expenses drop dramatically while your tenant pays down your mortgage for you! Have they made mistakes? Yes, but willing to share to help others avoid some of them. We talked about how they saved for their down payment; what are their monthly costs, and it’s incredibly low; managing risk; mindset; and MORE! And a tip of the week from Gary!

If you are someone who thinks it will be hard to purchase a home, this is the episode for you. House hacking is a strategy that allows you to find a home and help it pay for itself.
