The 3–6 Month Reserve Rule with Kevin Greer

Meet Kevin Greer, a unique real estate investor who masterfully balances a full-time career as a banker with a thriving 25-unit multifamily portfolio in Chicago. Dave Dubeau dives deep with Kevin to explore how his dual perspective—as both a lender and an active investor—gives him an unparalleled edge in the market. Kevin shares his strategic approach to "low value add" investing, focusing on under-rented properties that require upgrades, not major gut rehabs, to maximize rental upside. He explains why he targets the sweet spot of 12-13 unit buildings in Chicago, a segment often overlooked by both small and large investors, reducing competition and increasing efficiency for a busy professional. Discover how Kevin sources deals, including the fascinating story of his first 12-unit acquisition through an off-market connection and creative financing. Learn how to optimize your investing while maintaining a demanding career, proving that strategic focus can lead to significant growth without sacrificing your day job.
