So when do I say I am ready - FOR NEWBIES
Hello BP and perhaps more specifically,my fellow newbies. My partner and I have been stuck in analysis paralysis,for at least 1 year. Although we may feel ready,we can't help to sometimes feel that uncertainty. If you're like us, where you have a burning desire to pursue this journey,but still need a push, then let's take this leap of faith together.
We can share our passion and experiences together. Share our mistakes,goals and more importantly our journey into success.
So how do I begin and sum it up for my partner ( who happens to be my future son in law) and I.
Our WHY - To obtain wealth that will allow us to provide a legacy for our family. To bring God glory,with financial freedom in where he may lead us.
OBTAIN knowledge - Books we have read: Rich Dad Poor Dad , by Robert Kiyosaki ; The Millionaire Real Estate Investor, by Gary Keller; ALL OF Brandon Turners books (thanks Brandon ), The book on flipping houses,by J. Scott and many more.
Pod Cast ; picking brains ( not figuratively )
Mentors
Bigger Pocket and the burning desire to learn. HENCE THE ANALYSIS PARALYSIS
...... And there is a lot more.
It all led to us making our first offer a few days ago. It was for a pair of Duplexes ,class D area .
( LOL ,Check us out trying to come out the gate in a blazing fire)
The COMPS are $74 , Asking was $105K for one and $99K for the other.
We offered $136K for both. They said we didn't even come close, but a week later,a duplex directly next door sold $68K
So PATIENCE,PERSISTENCE ,and PERSEVERANCE ........And away we go.
I listened to a podcast the other day,he said
" PERSISTENCE + OPPORTUNITY= LUCK "
SO I THINK THE A ANSWER IS TO TAKE ACTION
WHAT SAY YOU ?
