In a recent episode of the "Jack of All Trades" podcast, host Jake Nuno delved into the subject of passive income from rental properties, a topic currently gaining traction, especially among young professionals. While low mortgage rates until 2022 made owning multiple properties seem appealing, rising rates are beginning to change that narrative. Jake highlighted the need for investors to be aware of the hidden costs and potential pitfalls of using mortgages for such investments. Drawing from personal experience, he shared the story of considering turning his previous home into a rental property. Despite the potential for a positive cash flow, Jake factored in property management fees and unforeseen expenses, like a failing water heater. Such unexpected costs could have easily turned a seemingly profitable venture into a financial burden. Jake's core message: while rental properties can be lucrative, potential investors should be wary of operating costs and have realistic profit expectations. The podcast continued with a discussion on budgeting for a house purchase.
