Dear Fellow Investor.. If you are considering investing in your FIRST or NEXT apartment community - whether actively or passively - this is a MUST podcast.  Far too many investors work hard at purchasing and investing but put very little time and attention to what they need to do NEXT.  On this weeks podcast I talk about the huge importance of a What's Next attitude and thought process investors should be implementing when taking over an apartment community.  For investors serious about multi-family investing this is a must listen (Part 1 of 2).

Dear Fellow Investor...

A lot of times we tend to overcomplicate things.

My easy 3 Litmus Test process is what I use EVERY TIME I consider a multi-family community to invest in myself OR recommend it to my investment partners or other investors.

The 3 tests are easy to know, understand and remember. Now, this does NOT mean that this "IS EASY", but knowing what I do can save you some precious time, make you more investment money and get you to the next level of your apartment community ownership faster.

You will benefit from this weeks podcast. Have a great weekend!

So...I am reading through the latest issue of the Forbes 400 and these two questions came up. I PERSONALLY get a lot out of asking myself these two questions - at least every quarter andthey are NOT just about money, investing or financial success.  These two questions apply tomany other areas of life - especially areas of frustration or areas where you may feel you arenot reaching your potential. Listen in on this weeks podcast where I discuss what these two questions are and why I thinkwe should all ask them of ourselves.  Have a great week and/or weekend!Darin

You know, as investors, especially multi-family owners and investorsthere are plenty of things that we should be scared of.

Unfortunately, there are many things that many investors like usARE scared of but should not be.

Frankly, it is not your fault. In the world that we live in today especiallywith the fast moving information and media world there are times when youshould be cautious and have a "Plan B" and then there are many, many moretimes where you should not be scared.

This timely topic during the month of October is your investment wake up call to what you should be scared of and concerned about and frankly whatyou should not be - ESPECIALLY as an investor and/or multi-family investmentowner.

Listen in to this weeks podcast as I talk about what you cannot be scared of and have a great week / weekend!
