Build the Lifestyle of Your Dreams with Real Estate Investing

After almost 30 years of working in the real estate industry, I deeply understand how to achieve financial freedom and build a dream lifestyle with real estate investing. Recently, I marked a bucket list item off as I took the trip of my dreams. Real estate investing made this dream a reality.

I love how real estate investing opens doors to financial freedom and independence, especially for women investors that may need the flexibility offered with real estate investing. This is truly a business where the sky is the limit to your success.

A Vacation of My Dreams

Last fall I took an epic trip that I’ve dreamed about for years. My journey began in San Francisco where I boarded a cruise bound for Australia. My trip included a stop in Hawaii where I reconnected with an early mentor whose wisdom and inspiration influenced my career.

This trip represented the realization of my dreams on my terms. It is an example of how I create the lifestyle I want empowered by my real estate investing success. When I launched my career in real estate investing I knew it would work with my life as a woman where my responsibilities included the wellbeing of others.

Through the years real estate investing helped me to gain confidence in my ability to run a business. This led to even more opportunities to train and coach other investors. All these steps along the way benefited both my knowledge and the growth of my business.

My dream vacation is just one example of how real estate investing allows me to live the life of my dreams. We all have different dreams and goals. However, when you dedicate yourself to growth through real estate investing, you too can build the lifestyle of your dreams.

What’s Your Dream for Your Life?

I find that setting goals helps keep people on track with business growth. It is this growth that advances your lifestyle and empowers your dreams. As you build your real estate investing business, take time to set your goals and identify your specific dreams.

What is your dream?

• International travel
• Work from home
• Retire early
• Build your dream home
• Live where you want geographically
• Pay off your debt
• Spend more time with your family
• Create financial security

The lifestyle you see others living and wish you could have, you too can achieve with real estate investing. You simply must decide to take the first steps to build your business.

Did you know that 90% of the world’s millionaires invest in real estate? Real estate investment is a proven route to financial independence and wealth. Thankfully, in today’s real estate market, you don’t have to be a millionaire to invest in real estate.

With online resources and networks, new investors can learn about the industry easily. Plus, it’s possible to start investing with other people’s money. Virtual real estate investing and wholesale real estate deals offer creative ways to enter the market.

How to Begin a Real Estate Investment Business

Take the first steps to build your real estate investment business. You don’t have to wait until everything is in place to start. Here are four steps I suggest for new investors to launch into the business.

1 – Create a Business Plan – A written business plan outlines your vision for real estate investing. By writing a business plan you create steps to move your business forward. Include a financial plan and marketing plan, which are two of the most challenging and vital parts of the business.

2 – Invest in Knowledge – Knowledge is power. Take advantage of the many opportunities available. Sign up for real estate investment training, attend a live event, or partner with a mentor to learn about the industry.

3 – Understand Funding Options – Many different options exist to fund real estate deals. You aren’t limited to only a traditional mortgage or cash to buy real estate. Understand the creative funding options available to help launch your first investments.

4 – Join a Network – Real estate networks are one of the best ways to build a real estate investing business. You can connect with other professionals in the business. These connections help you close deals by building a qualified buyers list. Your network also needs other industry contacts, like home inspectors, real estate agents, title companies and attorneys.
