Millennial Real Estate Investor Started With $4,000 and Rocked It
Started out with $4,000 at 22, and at 27 he's rocking it with his own company. And covered in Forbes, no less. How'd he do it? For starters, I couldn't agree more with his 'secret'. In his words: "I believe that being straightforward with investors and not overselling them on what you know you can’t deliver."
And as far as a bit of concrete and specific advice, again in his own words: "Some of the key foundations for your real estate journey I recommend include: getting a mentor, doing business with professionalism and integrity, focus more on execution than ideas, and place a high value on building quality relationships."
His final advice is just as good: "When you decide that you want to become an entrepreneur, that essentially means you have decided to take your life into your own hands and design your future. Don’t fall into the trap of making excuses for yourself, or telling yourself why entrepreneurship and real estate investing may not work for you, bet on yourself."
