I Disrespected the Market,
& My Real Estate Business Almost Crumbled …
J Scott – Recession Proof Real Estate
It was 2007, and my real estate partner and I were crushing it. Flips, rentals, and profits all rolled in nicely. Business was good.
But then the market changed – FAST.
We did some things right. For example, we built big cash reserves that sustained us in tough times. We did not borrow too much bank debt. And we quickly pivoted strategies once we realized our mistakes.
But the mistakes hurt! And they were mainly related to disrespecting the market.
The storm clouds of change were brewing in 2006 and 2007. But instead of recognizing and respecting them, we plowed full speed ahead. As a result, we applied the wrong strategies at the wrong time.
Luckily our business survived. The good choices outweighed the bad. But it was too close.
So now in 2020, the Coronavirus pandemic and its related economic have hit. After one of the longest market recoveries in history, another recession is on us.
That’s why this course is so timely and important.
It’s taught by J Scott, an expert real estate investor and one of the smartest people I know when it comes to understanding market cycles.
The course will teach you how to protect yourself and profit as a real estate investor during the inevitable cycles of the market. When other investors are paralyzed by fear or weighed down by mistakes, you’ll have the confidence to not only survive – but thrive – during a changing market.
