Opening the Doors to Success in Real Estate Investing
Opening the Doors to Success in Real Estate Investing
------------
It almost sounds like a fairy tale… A 19-year-old kid buys a dying business on credit, makes a profit on it, then uses all his earnings to invest in real estate. By the time he’s 33, he owns 700 units, lives a totally fulfilling life, and isn’t slowing down yet.
This is my man, Eric Eickhof. He might be young, but he’s wise, hungry, and as seasoned as anyone in the investment game. This week, I sat down with Eric to discuss how he got started in investment real estate and how you could too. We talk about:
• Opening deals through creative conversation
• What to look for when you decide to buy
• Mistakes Eric made along the way
• Growing your portfolio in a market being eaten up by hedge funds
This knowledge is invaluable to you, but when you boil it down, Eric’s main point here is to just act without fear. You’ll want to watch or listen immediately, and maybe even give this to your teenager or 20-something kids.
For the majority of my life, I’ve been passionate and dedicated about changing lives by giving away the very best strategies, tactics, and mindset techniques to help you and your business succeed. Join me as we take this to level 10!
