“You have to live in the moment” - Vinney Chopra
This one on one sit down was packed with great perspective and knowledge in the multifamily field and real estate as a whole. Here are a few tips Vinney gives us in this episode
Goal setting is important – Mindset is important, take stock, in what you’ve done today, live in the present, in the now.
Get in the right financial vehicle – the right job and the right place to spend your time in order to find a comfortable lifestyle. Vinney and so many others have picked real estate as it provides a scalable & sustainable vehicle that continues to prove recession resistant and essential.
Taking notes is important – you’re constantly learning in this field and it’s extremely important to constantly keep writing. Regardless of where you’re taking them (phone, paper, ipad, etc) Even if you think you’re going to remember it, that information will be gone a couple years from now. It’s important and impactful to have the notes on hand years from now especially with brokers, things like these can make important impacts on relationships
Making the right connections - Find a good partner for your business (experience, outside knowledge)
Gathering data - Demographic research, Climate, what facilities are local.
