Description

I’ve done good deals and I’ve done bad deals—and the difference wasn’t luck. It came down to whether the right ingredients were in the mix.

In this episode, I share the 7 key ingredients that make up the recipe for a truly good deal in multifamily investing:

  1. Price (and why chasing discounts alone can be a trap)

  2. Money in the bank & proof of funds

  3. Broker and seller relationships

  4. Operations and management

  5. Creative tools & terms (like seller financing)

  6. Team & infrastructure

  7. Personal readiness & discipline

When you put these ingredients together, you’ve got a recipe that sets you up for long-term success. Miss even one, and the whole deal can fall apart.

Listen in as I walk through how I’ve applied these ingredients—sometimes the hard way—and how you can use them to consistently find and close better deals.
