Do I Have to Wear All These Hats?

Wednesday, February 17th, 2010

Real_Estate_Investing_OutsourcingIn today’s post, David “The Diamond” Oswald shares how to outsource effectively (aka pass out the hats) as a real estate investor …

Do you remember when you started your real estate business, determined that you were not going to work for someone else anymore? What were you looking for?

… the freedom to be your own boss, deciding when and how much you were going to work and getting to keep all the profits?

What this means to you and me?

Well, a few things:

1. Loan defaults are piling up in the commercial market now, meaning there’s great buys in commercial for those who have cash (or for those who know how to get private money)

2. People who have cash (hedge funds, rich people, or everyday normal people who just have $ sitting around) are either buying properties, lending their money on low LTV commercial deals, etc.
