The Key to Becoming a Great Real Estate Investor"You can have an IQ of 170, and if you didn't know how to…manage events that are happening…you very well could give your energy away to things that don't matter and have very little energy left over for the things that do matter." Liah Kraft-Kristaine I've often said, "From a long term business perspective, the leading moneymakers set their business up to take advantage of the new 'trend' cycle to which their marketplace will incur." Becoming a great real estate investor means knowing the cycles and being ready for them. Every state, city, community and neighborhood goes through three cycles: Expansion, Absorption and Contraction. These three cycles mark economic and population growth. Savvy real estate investors will position themselves for the change rather than let it bull them over. Position Yourself for Trend Changes
Changes will take place in real estate. That's why it is always so exciting. The only way to make things happen for yourself is to accept the fact that changes will occur and be ready for them. Emotional Attitude Most people experience a sense of overwhelming when changes are about to take place. It's too much to them at first. They don't think they will be able to make the appropriate changes within themselves in order to be able to roll with the changes in life. It's like starting all over again. Check that attitude at the door. Realize those thoughts running through your mind. You have to capture them and discard them before they keep you from being the successful real estate investor you are trying to become. Change Your Mind Rather than waste your energy worrying about how change is going to affect you, change your mind to focus on the positive aspects of what your activities can yield you. It's an exciting opportunity to be able to do things in a new way or to experience new things all together. Look at the changes in real estate that are occurring and change your mind to look forward to them. You'll already be at an advantage when they start to occur. Create an Investment Plan This is the key to survival. In all things, you must have a plan. When a community is starting to transition from expansion to absorption, don't wonder what you are going to do next. Make a plan for how you are going to position yourself to take maximum advantage. Throughout your career as a real estate investor, you are going to see these cycles repeat themselves over and over. You might miss the first opportunity or be at a slight disadvantage when the new cycle starts. But, you'll learn. Get ahead. Stay ahead. Be prepared. The next time you see the signs, you'll know exactly how to position yourself to maximize your advantage. In real estate, changes will take place. Changes have to take place in order for real estate to perpetually produce a booming market. The sooner you realize that and position yourself ahead of the curve, or adapt to take advantage of existing conditions and prepare your business for the changes to come, then you'll be all the better for it. When changes take place, know what you are going through emotionally, change your mind and make a plan to take full advantage.
