Why Don't We Buy All the Properties?


Listen Later

Helping people create a life of freedom, choice and abundance has always been our passion. 

That’s why when people come to us for help, we do our best to find the best property for each one.

Naturally, however, something that sounds ‘too good to be true’ (even though it is) is typically met with disbelief, and we tend to get asked this question a lot:

“If you say you come across so many amazing deals, why don’t you just buy them for yourselves?”

And the answer is actually quite simple.

In this episode, we answer this recurring question and share our insights on why property investing is not a zero-sum game. We unpack why we don’t buy “all the great properties” and dive into the factor of scarcity versus abundance, while tackling other common questions people ask.

We also cover the problem with having a scarcity mindset…

Why capital and debt are both required to buy plenty of properties…

The importance of operating your business with integrity…

And lots more!
