Financial Freedom with Real Estate Investing


Book Description

Discover the (surprising) secret to lifelong financial freedom with real estate investing. Real estate has always been a powerful tool for investing, and many people believe that a single-family home investment strategy will help them achieve their goals. However, the true path to financial freedom using real estate is found in apartment buildings. Real estate investing expert and author Michael Blank learned that once investors did their first deal, the curious "Law of the First Deal" led to the second and third deals in rapid succession. Most were able to quit their jobs within 3-5 years of getting started. Of course, when most people hear "apartment buildings" they immediately assume they need years of investing experience and money saved up to be able get into the game. This simply isn't true. Michael has compiled the results of his research into his new book, Financial Freedom with Real Estate Investing: The Blueprint to Quitting Your Job with Real Estate - Even without Experience or Cash. He's outlined the "Financial Freedom Blueprint" that guides you through your first multifamily deal, even if you have no prior experience or your own cash.

And you don't have to be a millionaire to get involved in commercial real estate. There are a variety of ways you can get financing, without getting yourself into millions of dollars in debt.

Not only that, but you also have more control over how you mitigate those risks.

Going from investing in bonds and stocks to investing in commercial real estate may seem like a big leap. They are vastly different types of investments to take on. There is plenty of additional research and work needed when investing in real estate, compared to investing in the stock market. But even if you don't have experience with real estate, even the residential kind, you can educate yourself enough to get into commercial properties with enough patience and determination. Nothing is too complex that it can't be learned if you put your mind to it. You just have to get started and put what you learn into action. What are you waiting for?
