Hello, I thought I`d share some interesting things that happened with me over the last handful of years. All I was doing was flipping my personal residence during the RE boom we had. The first few times I didn`t even make any money. Then after a few warm up flips I finally made a small profit in the low 5 figures. Notthing to write home about. Then the next few flips got better, and better. The last house flip I made an amount in the low six figures. It worked out great and gave me enough funds to get into apartments. Call it luck or call it opportunity, but I got one big break from a friend who gave me a lead to buy an apartment building in my city, just before the boom really sunk in. In one year that building doubled in value. Sold at about double what they were purchased for per door allowed me to start really growing. So I bought a bunch of apartment buildings in Ontario. Flipped a small group of 4 buildings there, which was another amazing win fall. Now I just got a few more apartment buildings left that I`m trying to liquidate. I`m more or less just trying to get rid of them so I can retire. So I don`t say all this to impress you, but rather to impress upon you that if you can leverage your profits from one house to another, then try to make the leap into apartment buildings, you can very quickly get ahead. You can rapidly find yourself in a situation where you go from dealing in 5 to 6 to even 7 figure profits as you leverage one deal, into the next bigger deal, into the next even bigger deal. Just like the game of Monopoly, trade houses for hotels and you`ll win. I`ve tried so many businesses over the years and really there`s not many that you can get this kind of leverage in that can change your whole life, that why I`ve found REI to be really inspiring.
