Is real estate cash flow a myth? A decade ago, almost any property you bought could generate hundreds of dollars in monthly cash flow. Today, most investors struggle to find deals that break even. Is cash flow dead, and are those investor-influencers bragging about their financial freedom on Instagram merely painting a pretty picture that fails to match reality?

Here’s the good news: You CAN get real estate cash flow in 2025, even with 7.5% interest rates and today’s high home prices. This cash flow will make you MUCH wealthier over the next decade, but you need patience. Dave analyzes an actual real estate deal to prove that cash flow truly exists, running it as conservatively as possible using his cash flow calculator.

This is the kind of deal you’ll (probably) wish you had bought ten years from now. But, can you stomach the 2025 cash flow for a much brighter financial future?
