Any experienced real estate investor that tells you they’ve never had a fail or made a bad decision is lying!
Having personally invested for over two decades, purchased dozens of properties and helped thousands of Australians by billions of dollars in real estate, I can say that most of my decisions have paid off handsomely.
But my first investment - and perhaps my greatest lesson - was a doozie.
$30,000 went down the sink, and whilst it was painful to experience, I’m so grateful that it happened.
On this episode I cover many topics including -
4:15 Speaking Swedish
5:53 What’s Wrong with Socialism
7:44 Swedish Bottle Shops & Socialism
9:50 - Throwing parties for refugees in Sweden
14:02 My XMAS Decorations Business went bust
17:33 My first property was a train wreck
19:44 Most Real Estate Agents Are Broke
21:59 What I learnt from losing $30k on my first property deal
23:00 Meeting my business partner Jason Whitton
26:42 Being broke
31:49 Real Estate Riches & The 10,000 Hour Rule

34:37 Buying Four Houses for $5k each
37:14 Nuggets from this episode
