Vacation rentals, real estate agent commissions, brokerage fees, insurance quotes, and everything in between just start to scratch the surface of who Christian Bachelder is. Some of you may have seen Christian before on our YouTube channel where he talks about interest rates, loan products, and other future financing projections. But today, Christian gets to talk about how he not only built a large rental portfolio but did so while running multiple businesses.Even as full-time workers, many Americans feel like they don’t have enough time in the day to relax, let alone invest. So how does someone with a jam-packed schedule, a lot of pressure, and a mountain of responsibilities find time to not only buy one rental but fifteen rental properties in a year? To Christian, it took a bit of trial and error, but the answer is simply making your time as efficient as humanly possible.He’s been able to heavily invest, start and run one of the top mortgage brokerages in the country, work as an agent, and provide insurance to clients as well. He drills down into what business owners and investors alike need to do to reclaim their time, and once it’s theirs, use it to the highest and best use. He also drops some financing pro tips that may help you lower the down payment you need or close with a better-than-average interest rate!In This Episode We Cover:Turning your referrals into full-blown businesses that can build your wealthWhy investors should always choose brokers, lenders, and agents who invest themselves The velocity of time and why focusing on “return on time” beats ROI when investingCreative financing and loan programs that can save you serious cash at closingPartnering up to not only buy real estate but build businesses fasterHow to get three times more work done in the same amount of timeAnd So Much More!Links from the ShowBiggerPockets Youtube ChannelBiggerPockets ForumsBiggerPockets Pro MembershipBiggerPockets BookstoreBiggerPockets BootcampsBiggerPockets PodcastGet Your Ticket for BPCon 2022Listen to All Your Favorite BiggerPockets Podcasts in One PlaceLearn About Real Estate, The Housing Market, and Money Management with The BiggerPockets PodcastsGet More Deals Done with The BiggerPockets Investing ToolsFind a BiggerPockets Real Estate Meetup in Your AreaDavid's BiggerPockets ProfileDavid's InstagramRob's BiggerPockets ProfileRob's YoutubeRob's InstagramRob's TikTokRob's TwitterBiggerPockets Short-Term Rental CalculatorWork with The One Brokerage on Your Next LoanBooks Mentioned in the ShowSOLD by David GreeneSKILL by David GreeneBRRRR by David GreeneLong-Distance Real Estate Investing by David GreeneNever Split the Difference by Chris VossConnect with Christian:Christian's EmailChristian's BiggerPockets ProfileClick here to check the full show notes: https://www.biggerpockets.com/blog/real-estate-641Interested in learning more about today’s sponsors or becoming a BiggerPockets partner yourself?
