I'll be daytrading, but I don't expect to make more than $100k to begin with, over a few months. Then it's a slower (but safer) crawl upwards as I can trade full time, expecting $1m before I can retire (if I want to).

Best thing to do it buy a fairly recent used car that you can pay off in 3 years. If you just buy junkers, you'll keep going through them and spending money on repairs until you spend so much money over x years that you may as well have bought a new car.

>Car that you can pay off in three years
Terrible idea.

Buy one that you can pay for right now. Research the brand, and get friendly with a nearby repair shop if you need to (they can find junk parts for you cheap - make sure it's a common car. Don't buy the cheapest car you can find, either. Look online what to look for on a specific car, before you buy it. Some cars can have rust problems, others electronics and so on, but many cars also last a good many years. You don't need all the features, as long as it works and passes inspections.

You'd have to buy a gigantic amount of repairs before you reach the value of a "recent used car", I don't know what that guy's on about. Cars are dreadful investments, value-wise, and it's not going to be worth it. Just research, look at /o/ for that stuff, they have lists and whatnot.

Yeah, it includes the apartments.

I didn't have much trouble securing the mortgages. Have a decent well paying job, where my salary is about 90k before tax. And with the rent money included I should be at about 117k before tax, but after costs related to the apartments.

Forgot to mention in first post that I'm from Norway, so the whole process is probably different here.

Yeah, I rent them out. The first apartment I bought with saved up funds, so didn't have to take any mortgage loan on that one.

The second one I got cheap, I paid about 110k to take ownership of it, and it had about the same in debt. The price has gone up in that neighborhood a lot the last years, so I was a but lucky with that one.

The third one I am in closings on with the deal. The contract ain't signed yet, but it's scheduled for the 4th of march.

I should be doing a downpayment of about 100k on it, and then a loan of 160k.

Lets just round and say the wife and I are worth 600k.

looking to go buy a house in a better part of town. from owning a house outright, to having a mortgage feels like 2 steps backward.. but i know that keeping my cash invested and mortgaging at a 3.8% rate is a no-brainer... i will stop crying you a river now.. it's a good problem to have.

If you can sell it for cash, it has monetary value. Some cars like my cobra replica were built for 25k and have always been worth 25k and will always be worth 25k. It's insured through collectors insurance for agreed upon value of 28k...

Daily driver, you need, and selling it for cash would mean riding the bus or sharing a car with a spouse or something... but cars are fully fair to place into a net worth calculations. the equity you have in a car is capital that is under your legal control.

Yet, as you noted, your daily driver has greater utility value than monetary value, so calculating it into your net worth is a little apples-and-oranges.

That's like saying the net value of a company doesn't consist of the machinery inside of the factories because without it the companies value would be worthless.

please post a picture of your face when you realize that people actually do value companies by their capacity to continue to do business.

Assets have tangible value, the owner of that asset and tangible value is always calculated to increase the owner's net worth. it literally doesn't matter what that thing is.

a factory

When a company owns a machine there is an expenditure to get the machine, but it's value is what it produces, not what it cost to acquire. A company full of expensive machines that produce nothing is, in fact, worthless.

A factory full of expensive machines is worth the land the factory is built on plus the value of improvements (building), plus the value of all the expensive machines (minus depreciation).

In fact there can even be more value than that because the assemblage of all that stuff in one place can actually add value above and beyond the material cost of aquisition was. this is especially true when there is a revenue stream or expensive brand involved.

the company that owns that factory is also worth the value of the assets it has under control, minus liabilities. in a real life scenario - wages are a liability which would quickly sink a non revenue/profit producing company.

HOWEVER, since you haven't mentioned any liabilities, the value of the company is the value of its assets. IE, the land, building, and machines.

> it's value is what it produces, not what it cost to acquire

no, see this is where you forget that a company in bankruptcy sells it's equipment for MARKET VALUE, not for the price of whatever it was capable of making.

it is perfectly clear you don't know anything about finance, so just stop.

if a millionaire owns a half dozen antique cars all costing a million a piece.. i suppose those don't count either because they are cars and he would need to sell them, thus making him less of a millionaire?

No. As a thought exercise, imagine a millionaire that owns 2 honda dealerships and finances the entire sales stock position of the company himself. since he owns the dealerships and the sales stock, he could be said to be holding millions of dollars worth of civics. would you say this man is also not worth that money because he would have to sell those cars to realize their value? your process makes no sense at all.

anything owned by a person, that has value, ends up in their estate when they die. this includes cars, and a person's estate is very much the realization of a person's net worth.

Yes, you're right, finance does have a lot of rules that make no sense outside of ledgers. Thinking like this is what gets lots of companies in trouble in the first place. Sell off a division so massage the monetary value of the company while the utility value of keeping the division is ignored.

>>if a millionaire owns a half dozen antique cars all costing a million a piece.. i suppose those don't count either because they are cars and he would need to sell them, thus making him less of a millionaire?

If he owns nothing but million dollar cars he is a potential millionaire, not an actual one. Same for your dealership guy. Lots of potential monetary value but little actual monetary value. Calculating potential values into one's actual net worth is making a huge assumption about the actual monetary value of those assets.

Now, let me be clear, something can be an asset without contributing to monetary net worth. I have $X,000 in monetary assets as well as tools and a car. The tools and car are of far greater utility value than monetary potential, furthermore, their monetary potential is unrealized, so if you ask me my net worth I'm going to say $X,000 plus tools plus a car.

Where do you live where it is so difficult to assign a decent value to an asset? I live in the US. We have kelly blue book to tell us what a used car is worth based off year and mileage. We have sites like autotrader and craigslist where if you price a car decently it will sell in a week or 2.

We have comparable market sales to tell us what a house is worth based of $/sq ft in the same neighborhood or zipcode. We have property assessors that do that shit for a living.

we have a fast moving and liquid markets that will tell us what a share of apple is worth, and allow us to liquidate the position in 2 minutes if that is what we wish to do.


I don't understand why it is so difficult for people on this board to realize that assets have a value that is fairly easily calculated and those assets in many cases can be directly converted to a cash value pretty damn quickly.

everytime a net worth conversation comes up.. there is always some idiot with the "huurrr durrr cash is king, cash is the only thing that has value - PS I have 2 gold bricks buried in my back yard"

It would be hilarious if it wasn't so sad.

There is nothing wrong with assigning fair market valuation to all of ones assets for reasons of net worth calculations.

Now.. i will agree that i don't care what type of TV you own.. because i don't consider the 1k total value of your tv assets to be worth considering. not becuase it isn't a fair asset to assign value to.. but because the valuation is trivial for most people. what is a thousand bucks? it's a rounding error in terms of net worth.

but cars can be worth a lot of money. The average value of most posts around here seems to be about 50k or less. Including or not including a car is going to swing this by +/- 50% easily.

Forgot to reply about the returns.

At the moment, in terms of what I am paying and what I am earning, the budget comes down to approximately:

Apartment 1:
Income: 660 USD/month, total of 7920 per year.
Expenses: 53 USD/month, total of 636 per year. + 1 yearly payment of 393 USD for insurance.
Other expenses include Internet, TV, Utilities, Power etc, but they are paid by the person living there.
Net Income after tax: About 5002 USD per year.

Apartment 2:
Income: 1443 USD/month, total of 17310 per year.
Expenses: 1020 USD/month, total of 12248 per year. This has internet/TV, insurance, loan etc all included.
Net Income after tax: About 3705 USD per year.

Apartment 3 (Have someone moving in the 20th of March):
Income: 1700 USD/month, total of 20475 per year.
Expenses: 690 USD/month, total of 8272 per year. This has internet/TV, insurance, etc all included.
Loan: 900 USD/month, total of 10798 per year.
Net Income after tax: About 1025 USD per year.

On all expenses I am able to claim a 27% tax deduction, which totals to 5820 USD in deduction.
I am also able to claim 27% tax deduction on all interest paid on the loan, but I don't have that number here.

On average house/apartment value rises 3-6% here per year, so this also allows me to get decent profit if I sell any of the apartments in the future.
All three of them are located in popular areas, so it should be little to no problems doing so.

It had between 3.3 and 4.2% interest, so it wasn't too bad.
I did also put some of it into stocks, and also bought shares in that company.

At the moment I have spread it all around to a BSU (savings accounts for house/apartment here in Norway) which has decent interest and also gives me tax deduction.
Some into a few funds and stocks, but nothing too major there, and the rest is ATM being used to pay down debt on apartment 2 and 3 once that loan starts rolling.

I do expect to be able to pay most of it within a 5 year year period, if nothing serious happens with any of the apartments/they stay empty for a while, or the company I have shares in suddenly stops being profitable.

At the moment I am expecting a payout of 22k within a few weeks from that company, which will go towards the first downpayment on the loan.

That post isn't criticism. It's actually the explanation. Muslims don't believe in traditional western financing because payment structures like the ones created by western banks for mortgages are seen as abusive in islamic circles.

because of this they have their own banks and way of doing the maths that are "absolutely haram."

Yeah, I don't disagree with you. The system is quite abusable.

In Norway (maybe other countries too, but I'm not sure?) secondary homes also have a different tax value.
Your primary home has a tax value of 25% of the value, and secondary homes have changed from 60% to 70% starting from 2015.

This also makes it more valuable to have your money invested in real estate than in f.ex shares or normal savings accounts, which have a tax value of 100%.

So you had 133K saved up when you were 27? And then somehow managed with the down payments on two more apartments within the year?

Also, since the return seems to be 3-4% a year, I'm assuming you're relying on a growth of at least 4% a year on the value of the apartments?

Do you do any maintenance on them yourself, or do you hire people to do it?

Finally, any advice for someone looking to get into real estate investing?

I had somewhere around there, I forgot how much exactly, since I was getting income from multiple sources at the time, and I also put away some money to go on a 3 week vacation to America in the summer of 2014.

I used to work for a smallish ISP before, and we took ownership of a large network that had D-Link equipment installed.
We decided to replace all that equipment with Huawei GPON technology instead, so we were going to scrap everything out there. This was in 2011/2012, and we finished the work around Oct/November 2013.

I managed to snag this up from work, which in total was 50-60 DGS-3324SR switches, 40-50 DXS-3326GSR switches, 25-30 DGS-3627G switches and 300-350 DES-3010G switches, 20ish rack cabinets (a lot of the doors were broken though, so had to scrap quite a few).

The entire worth of this used was estimated at about 90-130k USD based on used prices in Norway at that time.
25% of this value goes back to my company though, based on our deal.

I have however not been able to get rid of it all yet, and I don't have the numbers for how many I have sold or have left here, as that is on my other laptop (I am currently on my primary job work-laptop).

And yeah, I am relying on a growth of 3.5-4% primarily, and the third apartment wasn't really something I had planned to purchase yet, it's just that an opportunity showed itself. The good thing about this one is that I have the possibility to rent it out two 2 people, as it has 2 bedrooms/2 terraces etc. But the person who wants to live there prefers living alone, so she wanted to pay extra for that.
Financially not the best choice for me, but it is someone who is close to me, so I agreed to do it for the first 3 year contract at least.

I do most of the maintenance myself, it depends on what it is, as I am not the most handy person ever. The family living in apartment 1 has done some work theirselves, as they have family who is educated electrician etc.

>> No.662211

>>661726
About advice, I would recommend just waiting for the right opportunity, and checking how the market is in the area thoroughly before you decide to purchase.

Purchasing this third apartment is a slightly risky move for me, as it leaves me pretty dried out in terms of my assets, so if f.ex the market was to crash in Norway, I would potentially lose a lot of money.

However, I have a very secure job, and I also work part-time now and then at another place where I make a decent amount of money for IT consulting, so I am not too bleak about the future yet.

The company I have 25% ownership is doing pretty well, and has about 2 million NOK at the moment that we could withdraw, but we are letting it stay there to invest in other things, as if we do take any out, you have to pay 27% tax of it, but it means I do have saved up capital here too, for a rainy day.

Another thing to consider is, if possible, get an apartment with two bedrooms etc, so you can have two tenants instead of one. The price difference on your loan shouldn't be too much, but the income can potentially double.

And as with anything, once it starts making you money, it becomes easier to make more money. I did not expect to go from 1 apartment last year to 3 this year, but I had a few lucky strikes along the road which made this possible.

And make sure you always have enough money saved up to cover the monthly costs of the apartments, if they were to stay empty or you get a tenant who refuses to pay suddenly.

In Norway we do have a service that you can use, which takes a monthly cut, or a one-time fee for 3 years of "insurance", as in that they pay you the monthly rent, and then they get the money from the tenant. This is a much safer option, but it will remove some of your profit of course. I don't know if this exists in other countries, but I would guess so.

I have not used a service like that as of yet though, as the people living in the 3 apartments I am pretty safe about.

Yeah, just wait until you're approaching your 30s. Your friends are settling down, a few of them have kids, it becomes increasingly normal to you. The reason you don't want kids in your 20s is because it's an alien concept, and you think it'll be too much work. A little while down the line you'll be feeling left out, and a bit envious of other people having children.

The increase in value of the apartments over the years is also nice, and the tax deductions and lower tax value versus tax value of other investments also makes rental property a very good investment in Norway :)
