When it comes to investing in property, you might have wondered once or twice about the possibilities. You might have also wondered what it takes to become successful and what it might be like once you attain that success. And these are perfectly natural things to think about!
After becoming an accomplished, multi-millionaire investor, I took note of my journey. One of the reasons I’m publishing my upcoming book on real estate investing is to share what it took to get there. But today, I wanted to give you a sense of what it’s really like—not the sugar-coated version everyone else gives you, but the very real aspects that were part of that story. Let’s take a look!
You meet challenges head-on
I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again: anyone can attain financial freedom. But there’s a caveat. In my upcoming book, you’ll find my story of overcoming the challenges and enjoying the rewards. And in that story, you’ll also discover how important it is to meet your challenges head-on with your allies and partners. It’s a critical skill I’ve honed through the decades of real estate investment.
You’re always assessing and reviewing
Once upon a time, I carried my calculator with me everywhere. While we talk about why in my book, today, I’ve gotten so good at running numbers in my head that I don’t even need that calculator anymore. As a savvy real estate investor, I’ve developed the habit of regularly reviewing the data and the other information I like to collect during my research and home touring.
You’re regularly fielding investment questions
What’s the possible ramifications on real estate from a strengthening US dollar? Is the house next to mine really worth as much as they say it is? When should I upgrade my kitchen if I plan to sell my house in the next few years? These are just a few of the questions that I’m asked every single week. And because I provide individualized real estate coaching, it means that I want to know the specifics of your personal situation when I provide an answer. But for me, helping others attain their financial freedom is the most rewarding part of my coaching, whether you’re a seasoned Realtor or someone totally new to investing.
You learn to step back and take time for yourself
When you get a taste for success in investment, it’s hard to make it go away. And that’s because it’s an incredibly exciting profession. Still, as much as you enjoy it, you have to step back occasionally. This way, you can gain perspective and regroup for your next investment decision. Now, that doesn’t mean you have to do so every day, but I recommend doing what works for you.
You enjoy financial freedom that you never thought possible.
Still, as you’ll find out in my upcoming book, I started out as a single mom. If you had told me today that I’d be a multi-million-dollar real estate investment coach… I don’t know what I’d say. But here I am. And it’s been a liberating feeling that’s so hard to describe.
Interested in feeling liberated yourself? You don’t have to wonder, because you have a trusted real estate coach with real-world experience. Keep an eye out for my upcoming book, and in the meantime, shoot me an email with any questions you have!
