Ever wondered if success in real estate is all about luck—or if there’s more to the story? In this Friday boost episode, I dive into the myth of luck in real estate investing and share what it really takes to be ready when opportunity strikes. Inspired by a timely Friday the 13th, I unpack how preparation is the true power behind what many call “luck.”
