What is Cashflow In Real Estate?

Okay, imagine you have a toy piggy bank. You put money into it, and that’s like buying a house. Sometimes, other people will give you money to play with, and that’s like rent.

But you still have to pay for things like electricity and repairs, and that’s like expenses. Cash flow is when you have more money coming in from rent than going out for expenses. It’s like having more money in your piggy bank than you started with.
