G'Day everyone,I have a funny but educational lesson to share with all of you guys today.Especially all of my "alpha male" mates lolI want you guys to STOP being egoistic A$$*****Yes, you read that correctly.Since we established Ohio Cashflow in April of 2014 we have had many good but also many bad times.The life of a business owner/entrepreneur or even a real estate investor sure is a rollercoaster of a ride.My biggest fault and some of my biggest mistakes as a business owner come from poor people judgment.When it comes to picking employees, partners and which investors to work with and which to turn down.This hasn't been my strong side but I believe with time and more experience I will get better.Without a doubt, the biggest mistake I have made over the years is by not listening to the most influential individual ofOhio Cashflow's success.My partner in business and in life.The beautiful and almighty @Dominique Osborn.Most of you don't know her as she works with the team from the behind the scenes (Behind every "lame" man, there is a great woman lol).Making sure that everything runs smoothly and patiently fixes all of my F@#$ ups lolShe was the one that picked all of the losers over the years.And for whatever reason, I didn't listen.I think it was a BS ego thing.So for all of you loud mouth and "loud ego" men out there like me.Tame your bloody ego and listen to others that might be better at picking the good, bad and the ugly.Women have a different instinct to us men and in my opinion are much better than us when it comes to evaluating people.Let's call it the "motherly protective instinct".Another thing.When you call us to buy a property and say "I need to speak to my wife"Big mistake.You should say "Engelo, can you please speak to my wife".Gents, I promise that my accent is much better than yours and I'll be able to sway the decision our way hahahaJokes...Happy investing and much success

See opportunity where others do not; stay connected to the agents and seller while patiently keeping them informed of my motivation to close a deal, and my willingness to wait for the right price.

I'm a resident physician and love REI about as much as treating patients. 

Hey guys really appreciate the reinforcement of sticking to my gut and staying patient.

2) Be patient, make LOTS of offers at prices that make your ROI work.3) Look into OOS investing, but this will be in Class B or C rentals OR STRs.

"When I think of Jesse Rook, I think of someone who is polite, patient, caring, selfless, and the type of person I would want to work with when buying and selling real estate.Born (in New Mexico) and raised in Grand Rapids, MI, Jesse is a native to the West Michigan area and brings with him years of experience of the ins and outs of neighborhoods.What sets Jesse apart from other agents is that he puts his clients first and himself second.

First thing i will say, take your time, and be patient.   

Keep in mind that real estate investment is a process, so stay patient, determined, and willing to learn from both victories and obstacles.Good luck!

Stay patient, stay focused, and strike when the timing is right.

He is a very patient man.
