Have you ever heard of the “the curse of knowledge”?

Simply put, it’s what happens when you become masterful at anything in your life. You’ve acquired so much knowledge that you don’t remember what it’s like for someone that’s just starting to learn. 

This is really common with entrepreneurs and business owners. They know so much about their business and tend to throw so much information at someone just starting out, that the person gets overwhelmed and can miss some pretty key things that could really help them.

Ever tried to explain a card game to someone for the first time? 

The concept is pretty simple to the people that already know the game. The new person however, looks confused as all heck. Then...even worse...everyone wants to tell them something they need to know right off the bat, and the new person ends up getting way too much information from everyone, and can even end up quitting before they ever start playing. 

Then somebody suggests that they just play along for a few hands, and they’ll catch on as they go. 

Before you know it, they pick up everything they need to know along the way and end up winning!

Beginner’s luck.

The real estate world is exactly the same. There’s so much information out there, from so many different sources, where do you even start?

My suggestion...at the beginning. 

Learn the key professionals in any real estate transaction. Then learn what they do, what makes them good, and what’s most beneficial to you. 

Today we take a bit of a step back, and try to shake off the curse of knowledge on the “Investment Property Income” podcast. We’re talking about the difference between the “Mortgage Specialists or Mortgage Advisors” at the bank, and “Mortgage Brokers”.
