Advice for anyone wanting to join real estate
According to Joe, location is the most important thing in terms of real estate. If a property is in a good location, even if you overpaid for it, eventually, you're going to do well with it.
Do your study before, you know, due diligence on the effects of the building. Don't cut your corners on that because it costs you 567 $1,000 to get an inspection. Do the inspection and go through the due diligence and do it properly. Making sure that the building is in good shape knowing that you don't have to invest a certain amount of money within the next few years.
