If it generates more than it costs to own you’ll never have to worry about it being lost.” “There are people that will say ‘I’m safer if I leave equity in the house’ and I would vehemently disagree. Equity is adjusted when the market crashes and you can’t stop that. If you’ve got your capital out of the deal the market crashes, who cares? As long as it’s cashflowing you’re going to be fine.”   Resources mentioned in this episode: BRRRR David Greene Long Distance Real Estate Investing David Greene www.biggerpockets.com/hirecontractor www.rentometer.com Andrew Cushman Bigger Pockets Podcast Episode Brivity CRM   We want to hear from you!

If you buy the “master” version of the copyright then you’re only going to get that one version.” “I’m a cash flow guy… I want cash in my pocket not just assets that claim to be appreciating in value. Royalties give you that, you get paid on a quarterly or semi-annual basis.

That’s a mistake. What you want to do is figure out how you want to live and design a business around that so you get paid to live how you want to live.” “People are afraid that when the other person is talking they are out of control, but really just the opposite is true. In sales (or deal making), you want to ask questions and (then) listen. Then when you do your explanation you have to leave enough so that they can engage. If they ask you questions, even if they object, they are engaged and interested. If there’s no conversation there’s no deal. Most amateur sales people just talk; big mistake. Learn to listen.”   We want to hear from you! If you're loving our content, click subscribe and write us a review!
