Want a 3% interest rate? What about a lower purchase price? Maybe hundreds of thousands of dollars in tax-free income? These real estate “hacks” unlock all of these benefits—and they work especially well in 2025. We’re entering a new type of housing market: sellers have lost much of their control, inventory is high, affordable areas are seeing stronger demand, and real estate investors need to pivot ASAP.

So, how do you take advantage of today’s real estate market? Dave has five hacks he’s currently using to find real estate deals at better prices (and substantially lower interest rates) in 2025. You can use them to land better buys, too.

Our hacks include how to “steal” a 3% mortgage rate even in 2025, the “rental property” that isn’t really a rental (but has way better upsides), how to perform renovations with less stress and more flexibility, a location hack that will get you a lower price while still having big-city demand and more!
