Brandon didn't have a lot of money when he started buying rentals. He got started buying what he could afford - old, run-down properties. He fixed them up, and raised the rent. Doing this created a ton of equity. Today, Brandon is in the process of selling off some of those properties and using the equity he created to buy nice single-family homes in better neighborhoods with cash. The new properties will be more profitable because they will be newer and not have mortgage payments.
