Key Takeaways:

“The very first house that I bought was for $5,000 and I bought it on a tax sale, and I still own that house. I’ve fixed it up and it rents for almost $800 a month. I’ve done joint ventures. It was an eight-unit building and a duplex where I got the vendor to give me the money for the down payment and for the closing costs.” – Sadhana Sabharwal

“These smaller properties I have, I get higher monthly cash flow and they’re just sitting there. I don’t care if they don’t grow, it’s just giving me money. If I wanted to retire, I can retire right now with the cash flow, like I am financially free. I get enough money for my expenses from my real estate dealings.” – Sadhana Sabharwal
