Taking a little bit of risk never hurts. So here is How To Invest In Real Estate With Little Risk. I remember flipping my first deal like it was yesterday. To be honest, my first attempt at flipping real estate in 2006 was an #EPICFail as the millennials say. I was all alone, undereducated and over-optimistic. Although I lost $120,000 on my first deal, yup I said it, $120,000, I was not discouraged. It was my most expensive PhD on what not to do. That’s why I’m an advocate for coaching to help my clients be successful without taking unnecessary losses or risks that could cost them. Never Bid Blind.™ In fact, my losses made me more determined than ever to figure out this real estate investing thing.
You see, I realized that there were people making money in real estate all around me, and if they could do it, then so could I. My problem was, I was using the wrong strategy within the wrong market cycle. What I was missing was key pieces of information to clear up my misunderstandings and decrease risks. Determined to regain my losses, I focused my energy on learning and finding a mentor. A successful mentor in any industry can not only help decrease your learning curve, but also help you avoid major pitfalls as well.
Thank goodness I was able to learn quickly, because in 2016 I became a full-time real estate investor, armed with the confidence and know-how to build my business the right way. Today I teach others how to do the same. I call it, paying it forward. Teaching lessons learned and how to avoid costly mistakes.
