If I Had to Start Over in Real Estate in 2026 (Even With Today’s Rates) DO THIS!

If I had to start over in 2026, this is exactly how I would approach real estate investing — even with today’s interest rates and everyone saying cash flow is dead. Cash-flowing real estate is not dead. In this video, I explain why people think it is, what’s actually changed in the market, and how there are still phenomenal real estate deals available if you understand how to position yourself correctly. I walk through what I would do step-by-step if I were starting from scratch: • Why cash flow in real estate still exists in 2026 • How to evaluate your income, cash, and risk tolerance to choose the right investing strategy • The truth about creative financing, seller financing, and why they don’t eliminate the need for cash • Why most people want to invest in real estate but aren’t financially ready yet • Why I would focus first on building high income (sales, business, or commission-based work) • How I would aggressively save and deploy cash into cash-flowing rental properties If you’re trying to figure out: • Is real estate investing still worth it in 2026? • How to invest in real estate with today’s rates • How much cash you actually need to invest in real estate • Whether passive income from real estate is still realistic …this video will give you a clear, realistic framework instead of hype or shortcuts. Real estate still works. But you need income, cash, and the right strategy. Join the creative cash flow club  https://www.chandlerdavidsmith.com/cr... Get $50 off my new Real Estate Investing Course!
