KEY TAKEAWAYS
1. It's not just about the deals and investments. If you don't have a solid team and infrastructure in place then your business will never grow into what it could be.
2. Stay in touch with your investors. There are technology platforms that can provide information to your investors in real time and... it's 100% worth the investment.
3. Be upfront and set expectations for your investors.
4. Have a strict "no jerk" policy so you know who the right type of investors for you are.
5. Don’t push unrealistic goals to investors. It's better to under promise and over deliver!
6. Focus on three things: capital preservation, cash on cash yield and the tax benefits of real estate ownership.
7. Provide transparent communication and build a solid honest partnership.
8. The average attention span of a person is 12 minutes... so don't waste it with spiel!
9. Know what YOU are best at and then bring in people that will compliment your skills and fill the holes that are in your skillset.
