Click Here for the Show Notes In this episode of Ask Marco, we dive into a question every serious real estate investor eventually faces—but few truly understand: how umbrella insurance actually works inside a real asset protection structure. Listener Shaw lays out an impressive setup with multiple LLCs, holding companies, trusts, and layered insurance, then asks the big question: should umbrella coverage live at the LLC level, the holding company level, or both? Marco breaks it all down in plain English—personal vs. commercial umbrella policies, how they “stack” on top of primary coverage, why common ownership matters, and how to simplify even the most complex multi-state, multi-entity portfolios without leaving dangerous gaps. If you own multiple properties, use LLCs, or are scaling your portfolio and want to protect what you’re building the right way, this episode is packed with practical insights you don’t want to miss. 🎧 Listen now, and make sure your insurance strategy is working with your asset protection plan—not against it. -------------------------------- Throwback Thursday Episode (The episode originally took place in the year 2020) This episode is part of our Throwback Series and may include references to older content such as web classes, events, promotions, or links that are no longer active or available.

Click Here for the Show Notes In today’s episode, Marco answers a listener question from Rose, a newer real estate investor navigating the frustrations of escrow shortages and surprise payment demands. After purchasing a three-unit property in Massachusetts, Rose wonders whether it’s worth managing property taxes on her own or sticking with lender-managed escrow accounts. Marco breaks down how escrow works, why lenders strongly prefer it, and how PITI payments simplify long-term property management. He also tackles the common concern of “interest-free money” sitting with the mortgage company, weighing the real opportunity cost against the value of time, simplicity, and scalability—especially as an investor grows from one property to many.

Click Here for the Show Notes Today’s question is a fascinating one and comes from Brian, who asks: How do you invest in real estate when you’re a nomad? Brian and his wife recently sold their primary residence to spend more time with their kids, splitting life between family, a vacation rental, and the open road—while sitting on about $200,000 in capital but showing little to no traditional income. In this episode, Marco breaks down why being a nomad isn’t the real issue at all, and instead walks through what actually matters when qualifying for loans: income documentation, credit profile, and available cash. He explains the different types of financing options—from conventional and low-doc loans to portfolio and asset-based lending—plus a smart all-cash-and-refinance strategy that can help investors move forward even during income gaps. If you’ve ever wondered how flexible real estate investing can be, even without a fixed address or W-2 income, this episode offers clarity, strategy, and reassurance that opportunity isn’t tied to one location. -------------------------------- Throwback Thursday Episode (The episode originally took place in the year 2020) This episode is part of our Throwback Series and may include references to older content such as web classes, events, promotions, or links that are no longer active or available.

Responding to a listener aiming for financial independence through rental properties, Marco breaks down the simple patterns that separate high-risk, high-cash-flow neighborhoods from stable, long-term wealth builders.

Click Here for the Show Notes In today’s episode, Marco answers a detailed question from Dave, who’s working to replace his day-job income with consistent rental cash flow. Dave wants to know whether focusing on lower-cost properties—typically under $100,000 and producing $250–$350 per month in true net cash flow—is the smartest way to scale both income and number of properties. Marco breaks down the difference between cheap and low-cost properties, explains why cash-flow-centric strategies differ from appreciation-focused investing, and walks through real examples from markets like Memphis, Birmingham, Dayton, and Northwest Indiana. He also discusses neighborhood classes, realistic return expectations, and why comparing deals side by side matters more than price alone.

Click Here for the Show Notes Today’s question comes from Daniel, a new real estate investor wrestling with a concern we hear all the time: Do you need to live near your investment properties to be successful? In this episode, Marco breaks down why proximity is often overrated and why smart investors should think beyond their backyard. Using a simple stock market analogy and real-world examples, he explains how real estate markets across the U.S. operate independently—and why being “market agnostic” can unlock better cash flow, stronger returns, and more stability, especially if you live in an expensive coastal city. You’ll learn when investing locally does make sense, when it doesn’t, and the key fundamentals to focus on instead, like population growth, job trends, inventory, and building the right team on the ground. If you’re worried about investing long-distance or holding yourself back waiting for the “perfect” local deal, this episode will challenge your assumptions and give you clarity.

Click Here for the Show Notes In today’s Throwback Thursday episode, Marco dives into a great question from listener John, who wants to know when it actually makes sense to sell a rental property—especially through a 1031 exchange—and reinvest in a stronger market. Marco breaks down the few, but important, scenarios where selling is smart: major market shifts like job or population declines, a weakening rent-to-value ratio that drags down cash flow, and the big one many investors forget—when your depreciation clock runs out after 27.5 years. He also explains how to compare your current property’s performance with what your equity could earn elsewhere, and why transaction costs matter but rarely change the big picture.

Click Here for the Show Notes Today’s episode dives into a question many new investors wrestle with: Should you buy a long-term rental or take a swing at a short-term vacation rental? Sandy, who’s currently working with my team, reached out for guidance as she and her partner prepare to purchase their first investment property in Florida. While long-term rentals offer predictability and stability, short-term rentals can deliver eye-popping cashflow—sometimes two, three, even four times more. But as we explore in this conversation, those higher returns come with trade-offs: unpredictable occupancy, increased expenses, constant turnover, potential regulatory headaches, and more hands-on management. I break down the pros, cons, risks, and realities of short-term rentals, contrast them with tried-and-true long-term strategies, and share why I personally stay on the long-term side of the fence. If you’re weighing your options or considering stepping into the vacation-rental world, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.
