Personal Status Report: Real Estate Investing
Posted by daveaguila on April 10, 2007
My interest in real estate started with the teachings of Robert Kiyosaki in his books. My desire to become a real estate investor grew bigger and bigger since then.
Then came the book of a Filipino residing here in the Philippines who applied the teachings of Robert Kiyosaki. The name of the Filipino is Larry Gamboa who wrote the book “Think Rich, Pinoy!” and “Grow Rich, Pinoy!”. He invests in Real Estate and concentrate in Foreclosed Properties.
His teachings in “Think Rich, Pinoy!” is so detailed that I was interested in copying what he did for himself. But the only hindrance I encountered was the “initial capital” for the downpayment, renovations, and marketing. With this, I proposed for a real estate investment team in one of the online forums where I’m a member. It was not an easy road. Getting partners was not easy. I received a lot of negative replies with my proposal. I actually gave up…
But one person’s post in the forum re-energized my desire to create the team. To make the long story short, we now started the team. That’s our current progress! Within this week we’ll be going to “window shop” for properties while waiting for more teammates.
