Buy – Purchase a property under market value.Rehab – Fix it up to increase its value.Rent – Place quality tenants and start generating income.Refinance – Pull out most or all of your original cash.Repeat – Use that same capital to buy the next property.It’s like recycling your down payment—over and over again.Step-by-Step: How I Execute the BRRRR MethodStep 1: Buy RightTarget discounted off-market properties or buy from reputable wholesalers.Build in margin upfront—never count on appreciation to bail you out.Run comps, negotiate hard, and lock it up at the right price.Step 2: Rehab SmartGet clear, written bids from legit contractors.Always budget for contingencies—you’ll need them.Focus upgrades on what renters value most: kitchens, bathrooms, and flooring.Step 3: Rent EffectivelyResearch rental comps so you know your market rates.Screen tenants thoroughly—this is where many landlords get burned.Factor in vacancy and maintenance from day one.Step 4: Refinance CarefullyUnderstand your lender’s requirements (DSCR, max LTV, seasoning period).Rate shop to get the best deal.Working with local commercial banks can offer more flexibility.Step 5: Repeat ResponsiblyDon’t overleverage—cash flow is king.Use flips or private lending to fund future BRRRRs if needed.Keep reserves for repairs, vacancies, and surprises.Who Should Be Using the BRRRR Method in 2025?
