Reducing Risk: Using Time Horizons to Reach Your Investing Goals

Episode Summary

Time horizon plus strategy, during times of economic certainty, are key pieces that you need to look at in order to find investment success. Join Steven as he takes a look at those key components and why it's so absolutely important to consider them as part of your investment strategy so that you can reduce risk and still achieve your financial goals.

Key Takeaways

1. During times of economic growth, we can be focused on opportunities that have a shorter time horizon, and therefore have a shorter debt schedule.

2. You can flip multifamily properties or flip houses in a growing or declining market; you just have to be able to anticipate how much that decline is going to be or you have to anticipate when that growth is going to taper off.

3. A long-term strategy has a lower risk profile, but also a lower return profile, and works very well in both markets, but is extremely beneficial in markets of decline.

4. Reduce risk by being lower in the capital stack.

5. Invest in very high-quality assets that renters are very interested in renting, even during times of economic change.
