Long-term wealth building

BRRRR

Buy · Rehab · Rent · Refi · Repeat

The BRRRR strategy is the most powerful wealth-building play in real estate. You buy a distressed property, renovate it, rent it out, refinance to pull your capital back out, and repeat. Done right, you can build a rental portfolio with the same dollars recycled over and over. The key is the refi — a DSCR loan at 75% of ARV needs to return enough capital to cover your acquisition and rehab costs. If the numbers work, you’re building equity with someone else’s money.

Phase 1 — Acquisition

• Hard money loan — 10% down, 12% interest only

• Rehab funded up to 85% of ARV

• Holding period: 3-9 months typical

Phase 2 — Refinance

• DSCR refi at 75% LTV of ARV

• Cash-out proceeds return your capital

• 30-year fixed at ~8% — now a cash flow asset
