“Important to get Coaching and a Mortgage from someone who Owns Investment Properties”




Good morning Joe

I am interested in purchasing a rental property and was referred to you
as a source. We have communicated in the past regarding a former client
as well. I was interested in knowing the minimum requirements to get a
loan for a rental. Since this is my first investment property I'm trying
to be cautious.

Buying an investment property may sound like something “pretty cool” to do,
but it is not for everyone. I have seen the bad results when someone has
no clue what they are doing and over time loses a bunch of money.



Keisha is wise to be cautious and learn as much as possible before making this
kind of investment. She was referred by someone who knows that I own a
number of investment properties and have for many years.



I often remember something that my dad shared with me many times. He
would say, “The man who learns from his own mistakes is a fool, the
person who learns from the mistakes of others is a wise man”.
