His Rentals Pay All His Living Expenses With Augie Cortez (Ep 581)
Episode 581
Tuesday, 7 July, 2026

Augie Cortez has reached the point that many real estate investors dream about. His rental income covers all of his family's living expenses, giving him a comfortable, low-stress lifestyle. As long as he keeps his properties rented and in good condition, the rentals cover the bills.In this episode, Augie shares how he built his portfolio by buying single-family homes, primarily renting to Section 8 tenants in a great school district. He explains why keeping all of his properties close together has made self-management much easier, why he does most of his own repairs, and how tenant-proofing his rentals has dramatically reduced maintenance headaches.He also explains why providing great service and keeping the properties in good condition has led to tenants staying for many years, which, in turn, reduces his turnover expenses.We also talk about the importance of keeping leverage low and building equity, the lessons he has learned about allowing pets, the toughest challenge he has faced as a landlord, and the advice he would give to anyone who wants to build a rental portfolio that provides financial freedom and peace of mind. https://rentalincomepodcast.com/episode581Thanks To Our Sponsors:PadSplit - Earn 2.5X more rental income with PadSplit's shared housing model.Ridge Lending Group - Ask about the All-In-One loan.
