The GOLDEN RULE: Bring Value

[Zachary McDonough]

To whom it may concern,

My name is Zachary McDonough. I am high-key addicted to real estate. I am 22 years old but have been addicted for around 5 years. I am constantly having visions owning lots of properties and blessing my community, my family and sphere of influence with knowledge and resources to grow their wealth. 

However, I am just beginning....

Many people reading have decided on a similar path and whether you are ahead, "behind" or in the same position as me. So for you with real estate aspirations, how do you represent value to partners, clients, etc?

I am honestly looking for actual examples, but mindset & perspective is always appreciated as well. I have been wrestling with ideas like purchasing books for new clients after closings (ie Rich Dad Poor Dad) and stuff like that.

Sincerely,

Your Biggest Supporter

Be blessed!

@Zachary McDonough I love Rich Dad Poor Dad. My mentor that got me started in REI told me to purchase the book myself. I had been working in the property management side of the business for many years. But never took the plunge in going into REI. I was very happy in a 6 figure senior management JOB (Just Over Broke). But after +23 years working in corporate America I was getting tired of making money for other people. My mentor worked in the same industry but is also an REI. He suggested I read Rich Dad Poor Dad. But he added this caveat "I use to by the book for other people. But if they didn't have a vested interest and would never read the book." So I have followed his advise and recommend it to other potential investors. But tell them they need to spend the $10 to get it. Because if they aren't willing to invest $10 in financial freedom your wasting your time. So save your money. But definitely encourage them to read it and any other REI book they can get their hands on. Words are free. And if they are willing to invest in themselves then they will come back to you for additional help.
