Message to real estate active investors


This week I’ve been quite busy.

Just launching into the market two new short-term rentals.

Looking at the dishwasher, some furniture, attending the internet technical guy… things like that.

I could probably delegate all this, but sometimes, you want to be on top of everything.

Why do I do this?

Why, would you ask.

​

Because I like it… and because I do believe that money is important.

Very important.

You may like it more or less, but 99% of the decisions you will make in the future will be influenced by the money in your wallet.

Or maybe 99.99%... I could be wrong with the decimals…

​

Where you live, how you live, the number of generic brands in your fridge, and the school your children attend will depend on the money you manage.

​

Now, I’m not saying it should be the center of your life… its importance is just only a little below the air you breath…

But it is certainly a huge help in keeping the real center running smoothly.

​

So, wouldn’t it be a better idea to establish a healthy relationship with money and make an effort to understand how to save it, invest it, or generate it?

​

I’d say yes.

​

But that’s just my opinion.

​

Money is not your enemy. It’s not the devil. It’s not a spiritual obstacle.

​

What I’m trying to tell my young child is that, on the contrary, money is a wonderful universal agreement.

A beautiful way to acknowledge the value received and given.

​

And ignoring its importance is denying both our era and human intelligence.

​

I insist—this isn’t about obsessing over money, but about understanding and integrating its relevance in the times we live in.

​

Otherwise, you should have been born earlier—or later.

​

That said, there are a thousand places that can help you grasp this idea, and nine hundred and ninety-nine of them are probably great.

​

But this one (which happens to be mine, and which I proudly and happily invite you to buy) is too.

​

Do you want to know why I’m doing short term rentals?

You know that moment when a government says: “We’re launching a massive PPP program.” Or… “We are going to partner with the private sector to build roads”! Everyone claps like seals because… wow… private money, shiny highways, “international best practice,”. Re-election secured. Mexico did that in the early 90s. Fifty-two highway concessions. I repeat. 52 PPP fever everywhere. The “future” of infrastructure. And we’ll build Speedy Gonzales speed. Spoiler: It didn’t end well. Actually, it...

Last week I lost a dream villa in Auckland. In the most expensive neighbour in the country. Full renovation to be made to earn around 500k$ with the trade… although this one was for me. Amazing views of the sea and the Auckland Bridge… from the kitchen and dining area. Walking distance to downtown. I just needed to counter offer around 10-15k$ more and I got it. But I was weak. Hesitant. With lots of fears and doubts… Or maybe not that much. On reflection, I have my rules. Minimum discount on...

“We want a PPP… but we don’t want to take any risk.” That scream comes from the public and private sectors alike… And every time I hear that, I already see the coffin. Today’s story is not about a PPP that went wrong. It’s about a PPP that never even made it to the starting line because the government tried to dump so much unmanageable risk on the private sector that the private sector simply said: “Good luck, amigos.” And walked away. Welcome to the Nairobi–Thika Highway PPP attempt (early...
