Property Profits Real Estate Podcast
Business:Investing
Fear is the one thing that's keeping most of us from getting started. And part of that reason is one's idea of perfecting everything before starting. And that is not helping and getting us anywhere.
The same thing with real estate; it is only with taking action, even how imperfect they are, that we move along and get things to happen.
Frans Calderon came from Colombia, South America in 2008 with the intention to learn to invest in real estate. He purchased his first property in 2009 and since then his real estate business has been growing. Now he owns more than 50 rental properties, and works in multifamily and development deals.
In this episode, Frans shares how he overcame fears to start a real estate investing business as he relates his own story of not knowing anything much about real estate when he started. He underscored the idea of seeking help and stuffing himself with knowledge through mentors and by securing an education on related matters. And that is how he managed to stay afloat and become successful in a completely new place in real estate.
