Part of this education process is due diligence, which is divided into two teams: the financial audit team and the unit walk team. He details the role each team plays in identifying necessary repairs, assessing potential risks, and uncovering revenue opportunities. By addressing these factors, investors can attract better tenants, increase rents, and enhance overall returns, ultimately making for stronger investments.

Great Investments Begin With Due Diligence

Mike Harrison explores the due diligence process in multifamily investing, emphasizing its importance as the most critical phase of an acquisition. He shares his own experiences with unit walks and unexpected discoveries made by investors. From inspecting individual units to uncovering hidden issues, due diligence ensures investors make informed decisions and lead to stronger, more profitable deals.

Education: The Ladder to Financial Freedom

Avoid Regrets by Ditching the Traditional Retirement Mindset

Andy Webb breaks down retirement into three fundamental options: saving, creating income streams, or working until death.
