Get Off the Sidelines - Justin Britto

Wisdom comes from experience and learning from mistakes. Perhaps for those starting in multifamily investing, being a bit more conservative at first and taking calculated risks is the way. Do not take for granted the relationships you are developing along the way as this may turn out to be more valuable than what you are earning. My guest, Justin Britto, talks about how he became an investor, what mistakes he has made in the past, and how he has learned from them. He also shares advice for aspiring investors.

Tweetable Quotes:

“The important thing in the situation for me is just being transparent with the investors and just letting them know along the way, hey, this is what's going on.” - Justin Britto

“Don't wait. You don't need to have the perfect team in place. You don't need to have the perfect partner in place to get started. It's just put in the action, put the footwork in, and do your due diligence research, and you'll figure stuff out along the way.” - Justin Britto
