Business
What is it that you want your life to look like? What’s your ultimate outcome? When you have this vision fixed in your mind, it’ll help you push through the mental barriers you and maybe even the people around you will try to throw up constantly. Gavin says deciding on your ultimate “why” is also going to help you fix on a strategy that moves you toward your goals.Some real estate investors want that huge team all set up in a swanky office, and others want to stay lean and mean throughout their whole careers. What you decide on is totally fine, but it’s going to influence your real estate investing strategy. Teams build different portfolios than a one-man crew. Do you want to be a buy and hold investor? Maybe a fix and flipper? Or some other flavor of real estate investor? No matter what you decide, there are two questions that Gavin and I feel every real estate investor needs to ask and answer for themselves:—What is your “why”?—What is your exit strategy?In the beginning, you’ll need to decide if you have more time or money. Because whatever you have more of is going to help you determine your strategy too. When we get down deep in the trenches of real estate, we have to have a solid hold on our “why” so that we can make decisions that help us build the kind of life we want. What’s Inside:—How to match up your marketing with your real estate investing strategy.—Gavin talks about how you have to adjust your marketing if you have more time than money. —Why Gavin thinks having a solid “why” is going to keep you going when things are tough.
