Quotables
“As more people get into it and the deeper you get into the industry itself, you realize that some of these deals, it takes a village. It takes people helping you out – people with more knowledge, people with more money, whatever the case may be.”
“I think my doubts were very at the first, when I got into the industry because you’re learning, you’re just getting in, you don’t know much – you need to find a niche.”
“Not every day is gonna be easy for the life of a real estate investor or a professional within the industry, so just persevering.”
“Eventually, it’s the numbers. If it makes sense for you, if you’re looking for equity or you’re looking for cash flow. There’s a mix to it, but it depends on what strategy and where you invest.”
