*How many rental properties do you need to retire? A lot fewer than you think.*
When people start investing in real estate, they think they need 20, 50, or even 100 rental units to build wealth, retire early, and *secure financial freedom* for themselves and their families. This is _not_ the case…and it’s not even close.
*The average American only needs eight—yes, eight—paid-off rental properties to retire* with six figures in annual cash flow. But that would take decades to pay off, right? Not quite. Within just around a decade, you could *go from zero rentals to a paid-off portfolio,* giving you financial independence via passive income from a small, powerful rental property portfolio.
Henry is walking through the math, *how to get to financial freedom faster,* and the strategy he uses to *recycle the same down payment* so he _doesn’t_ need to wait years to buy the next rental.
Your financial freedom is just eight rental properties away. What are you waiting for?
