The “Other Way” To Get More Deals
In the real estate world, there are two basic ways to get more deals. The first is obvious: to go out and find properties through marketing, networking, and hitting the pavement.

Beware the Ides of March
Beware the ides of March. These famous words mark the day that Julius Caesar was tragically assassinated to death by his Senate. Caesar’s stabbing followed a period of unrest in ancient Rome and eventually led to Rome’s transformation from a republic to an empire. However, the ominous origins of this phrase are rooted in literature.

Shakespeare’s words apply to the real estate world, too. At a certain point, investors, home flippers and landlords need to pause, assess, and exercise caution– and to back away from any dangerous edges. Continue reading “Beware the Ides of March”

A Story of a Promising Real Estate Investing Business That Went Bad
It’s the middle of the night. From the outside, the house, distant from the road but grand and stately in the moonlight looks completely dark except for a faint glow coming from one of the windows on the first floor. There he was staring at the screen of his laptop. Wife and kids, upstairs, fast asleep. He couldn’t rest, so there he is, trying to figure it out. A spreadsheet staring back at him. He’s a professional, businessman, very successful and he’s trying to figure a way out, but deep down he knows the numbers don’t lie. “How could this have happened to me?” he thinks.
