In this week's show Simon discusses the seven most common reasons or excuses he hears, for people not wanting to begin their property investment journey, and why with just a little insight and re-framing, you can overcome any of them!
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Many see a lack of capital upfront as a stumbling block, but there are many creative strategies out there that require no money to get going.
Deal sourcing on behalf of others is a superb way of making money for yourself, building relationships with investors, and helping to build a more robust knowledge base for yourself.
Everyone has 24 hours in a day. If others can find the time to create wealth and others can't? It all comes down to making the decision to take action, and making this action a priority.
Work with motivated sellers - finding them is key. Only buy properties in areas with strong rental demand. Only buy properties that can provide you with cash-flow today! And remember that you're buying for the long term, and always have a cash-buffer.
BEST MOMENTS
'These might seem like very valid reasons, but they're really just excuses'
'There are creative strategies where you don't need to put in a lot of money'
'It boils down to a lack of knowledge, and a lack of mind-set and belief'
'Learning how to find really good deals is one of the best things you can do'
