How to Buy Room Rental Properties Subject To | A Real Deal Breakdown with seller, Paul Rink

How do subject-to real estate deals actually work? In this episode of the Coliving Investing Podcast, I sit down with investor Paul Rink, the seller of the 7-bedroom property I purchased using a subject-to agreement. Instead of hearing only the buyer's perspective, you'll hear directly from the seller about why he agreed to the deal, how the transaction was structured, and what made it a win-win for both of us. In this episode, we discuss: * What a subject-to real estate deal is * Why Paul chose to sell using creative financing * How I approached the negotiation * Lessons investors can apply to their own deals * How creative financing can help you acquire more rental properties Whether you're interested in co-living, room rentals, creative financing, or building a real estate portfolio without relying on traditional bank loans, this conversation is packed with practical insights from both sides of the closing table.

How Corporate Attorney is Using Room Rentals to Build a Lasting Legacy

In Episode 15 of the Coliving Investing Podcast, host Ashley Jeffers sits down with Donnise Webb to discuss her inspiring journey from corporate America into real estate investing and how she built a profitable portfolio using the co-living and room rental model. Donnise shares how attending a tax lien conference completely changed the trajectory of her financial future, leading her to purchase and renovate her first co-living property. She explains why co-living generates significantly more cash flow than traditional rentals and how creating a strong sense of community has helped reduce tenant turnover while providing affordable housing for people who need it most. The conversation also explores the realities of self-managing rental properties, transitioning from shared rooms to private room rentals, and building systems that allow a real estate business to grow. Donnise discusses her long-term vision of creating generational wealth, preparing her family to continue the business, and why education and mentorship are essential before entering the room rental investing industry. In this episode, you'll learn: • Why co-living can outperform traditional rental strategies • How community building improves tenant retention • The pros and cons of self-managing room rental properties • Why organization and systems are critical for scaling • How to build long-term wealth and a family legacy through real estate • Advice every new room rental operator should hear before buying their first property If you're passionate about co-living investing, room rentals, affordable housing, and building financial freedom through real estate, be sure to subscribe to the Coliving Investing Podcast for weekly conversations with successful investors from around the country.
