If you’ve been wondering how to maximize profit on your next real estate investment, this is for you. I recently created a YouTube video that breaks down exactly how much you can make with a traditional single-family rental versus a group home.
A single-family rental is often seen as a “safe” option — but the cash flow can be surprisingly slim after you factor in mortgage payments, taxes, insurance, and maintenance.
In contrast, a group home can dramatically increase your income potential by serving multiple residents under one roof.
In the video, I walk through real-life numbers so you can see the difference for yourself. Whether you’re a new investor or you’re looking to scale up your rental business, understanding these numbers could help you make a smarter, more profitable decision.
If you’ve ever asked, “Is it worth the extra effort to set up a group home?” — this video will give you a clear answer.
