In this episode, Jonathan Farber interviews Alexander Felice on his road from buying his first property after being sick of his W2 job to owning 8 single family homes and getting his second multifamily deal under contract. Alex is a growing investor and content creator based in Fayetteville, North Carolina. In this episode, we break down topics like: creating your first deal with no resources, where to start your real estate career, understanding chance and how it determines your success, and more!
Top Takeaways:
Building your first deals from nothing - 11:15 - 14:45
Look everywhere you can for the best numbers you can find
A little sweat equity will take a property from below to above market value
Take an FHA loan or whatever you can get to get in with little down, and save that much
Starting in single family vs. multifamily - 16:45 - 18:00
Multifamily properties are more economically efficient than single family
The experience and confidence gained from doing several single family deals will drive you through
Once you’re successful in single family, you can more easily attract investors for multifamily
Understanding the role of chance in your success - 20:00 - 21:30
There is likely a much larger effect by randomness than many people think
Many investors in the last decade have been buoyed by a beneficial market
The key takeaway is that resting on your laurels is a quick path to complacency and failure
