How to calculate your return in an investment?
|
That is the question I always get. ​ But that’s wrong. ​ You should start by what’s the return that you need to get from an investment to make it worthy. That’s the real thing. Is it 5%, 10% or 15%? Would it be the same if the interest rates are 3%, 5% or 8%? You can get the answer in the course below ​Investing better than 99% of people ​ But for now… let’s go back to the question. ​ It’s such a recurring question that you’ll even find dozens of articles, posts, or videos on YouTube trying to answer it. ​ People are afraid. ​ Afraid of not finding hidden defects in a property before buying it. And I’m not talking about structural defects… or at least, not just… ​ Imagine arriving on the first day to see what you've bought, now being yours, and realizing that the electricity was worse than you expected. Or that you can hear the neighbor too much when they flush the toilet. Or that you have a very nice neighbor that love the fiestas until late… from Tuesday to Sunday. ​ You can be quite jodido is this happens. ​ The same happens when, after calculating the profitability of a property, what you had on paper turns out to be just a mirage. Going from calculations to reality is very complicated, and gurus on the internet sell it as a simple formality. What was supposed to be an 8% net, ends up being an 8% gross… And then you realize that the 2 weeks to find a tenant become 2 months. And the insurance grows over inflation, as well as the condo fees or municipal taxes… ​ In the course below, I provide my personal Excel File to review all these scenarios. It includes taxes, inflation rates for key elements, appreciation, cash flows, mortgage, interest rates, upgrades… It’s my personal tool that gives me the go or no go in 5 minutes. ​ But here is the interesting thing… Good opportunities need to be created, not just detected. ​ And that… and not the magic Excel File is what you should be considering. ​Is this piece of Real Estate a Good Investment – $29.90. ​ ​ PD 1: If you liked this email, don't keep it in secret and forward it to a friend.

Last year, kindercare official picture, Christmas party with kids and family, strawberry picking, etc. This year, nothing. Last year, a competent person. This year, someone less so… or with less time… or with more excuses. No matter your contract. Your organization chart. Your incentives. Your whatever. People continue to be the key for success. Still companies squeeze to the bone salaries and benefits, and treat people like commodities… And honestly, they are not. At least, not yet… who...
I signed the contract on Monday. On Wednesday, I received a welcome email – I’m your personal property manager. Next day – Mail. We are talking care of connecting utilities. Later mail: Done! Next day – Mail: We are ordering the mattresses and the repairs as discussed during our meeting on the apartments. Early following week – Mail: We have listed the apartments. End of the week – Mail: We have conducted visits and we have received applications. We are doing our checks and will let you know...
Just yesterday, I had an interesting call. “What should I do if these guys are “locos”? Translated: What to do with a client that it’s not engaging? That’s a hard one. Let’s get more information: “Are they experienced?” “No” “Are they empowered?” “No” “Have they been instructed to give you nuts?” “Maybe” “Warm… Have you asked why **** is so important for them?” “No” “Warmer… Have you had recently a coffee or conversation with their bosses?” “No” “Ummm… let’s prepare an action plan” You can...
