Telling You What You Don’t Want to Hear in 2024
WHY HONESTY IS ALWAYS THE BEST POLICY
Most people tell you what you want to hear because they care what you think about them. I tell people what they DON’T want to hear because I don’t place value on what they think about me. Of course, I don’t speak in a way to purposely anger or offend people. The key for me is that as long as I’m telling them something true, I don’t need to worry much about what they may think of me. A case in point is investing in multi-family communities. Investing in or owning, passively or actively, an apartment community is NOT for everybody — maybe it’s not for you either. Most, if not all, other real estate “gurus” will tell you how EASY it is and how UNBELIEVABLE your returns and income will be. According to a recent email from one of the “gurus,” you can “TRIPLE your investment. “ They show you all their “toys” of success, testimonials promising “easy results,” and so on. In other words, they are telling you what you want to hear. These folks care about what you think of them, probably hoping you will buy or invest. Now, I have discussed how well projects and communities will do and the benefits of owning your multi-family community. But I have also turned investors away, even at the risk of offending some, because multi- family investing and ownership did not fit them well. This type of honest communication is how it should be.
So, after you read this, take 30 seconds to think about two things:
1. Will multi-family investing be a good idea for you? Do you see the financial benefits of having your own (passive or active) apartment community or community? 2. What does everyone ELSE tell you about owning, investing in, and being involved in multi-family investments (or any other “business opportunity,” for that matter)? Are they simply telling you what you want to hear? Whether it is good news or bad news, telling you what you NEED to hear is what I am all about. As should anyone that you choose to follow or get advice from. Unless ...
You like being told what you want to hear.
Have a great Valentine’s month!
