You Only Fail If You Quit

May 14th, 2012

I read an inspiring blog post this week that really made me stop and think about not only how far I’ve been fortunate enough to have come, but also the fate of some others you may have heard of. Others who have had a dream and decided that they were never ever giving up, no matter what.

For example,we’ve all heard of those books “Chicken Soup for the Soul” right?  Did you know that the authors, Jack Canfield and Mark Victor Hansen, brought their book to publisher after publisher, and received 134 rejections?  Obviously it was picked up, and has since become one of the most published and sought after book series in history!  Or, how about Walt Disney who “as a young man, Walt Disney was fired from the Kansas City Star Newspaper because his boss thought he lacked creativity.”  I think we all know how that one ended!

One more example: Michael Jordan — “Most people wouldn’t believe that a man often lauded as the best basketball player of all time was actually cut from his high school basketball team. Luckily, Jordan didn’t let this setback stop him from playing the game and he has stated, “I have missed more than 9,000 shots in my career. I have lost almost 300 games. On 26 occasions I have been entrusted to take the game winning shot, and I missed. I have failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed.”

Investing in Real Estate is no different. You can fail, but only if you quit!  We began back in 2004 after experiencing that investing in real estate was more lucrative than mutual funds and equities.  “… it became clear that if I just continued doing the same thing that I was doing I was still going to be stuck in the position I had been in, which is lack of time and the chance to spend time with my family“. — Michael Ponte

Since then we have built a life around investing and building success for others as well as ourselves!  It is the most rewarding of careers!

If you would like to STOP having that fear of failure and Go For It with a proven system, come check out our next seminar “Prosper for Life” on Wednesday, May 29th. You can see the full details here. You must register to attend this FREE event, and you can do so by emailing info@prosperityinvestments.ca or calling our office at 604-882-6901.

Why an Inspector for Your New Investment is Necessary

April 27th, 2012

You’ve finally got a property you’re serious about investing your money and your time in!  You’re ready to take that dive into the deep end.  Is that home or housing unit exactly what it appears to be?  It’s impossible to really tell until you get an Inspector in there to really INSPECT and do what he or she does best.

There are serious issues such as mould or even asbestos to consider.  A property with either of these issues needs to be cleaned up BEFORE any kind of further transaction will ever take place.

Canadian Real Estate Magazine says “Gone are the days when mould was simply the “nasty black stuff’ growing on a wall that was cleaned up with some bleach. Today we are more aware of indoor air quality and that exposure to mould can cause a wide variety of illnesses. Mould can cause symptoms such as allergenic reactions or asthma attacks, progressing to severe and chronic ailments with prolonged exposure.”

They go on to say “What do you do if you see or suspect you have mould? It is recommended you get a qualified mould inspector to do a proper assessment. Many property managers have unwittingly made their building’s mould situation worst by attempting to remedy the problem themselves.”

And what about asbestos?  “Equally as concerning as mould, and needs to be considered in older buildings.  Asbestos is a naturally occurring mineral that was commonly used in Canada until the 1980’s for acoustic and thermal insulation, and fire proofing. Many older industrial, commercial and residential buildings still have asbestos-containing materials, which can include: ceiling tiles, plaster, texture coat (stucco), drywall compound, vinyl floor tiles and sheeting, pipe insulation, and some loose-fill vermiculite insulation.

Asbestos is made up of microscopic bundles of fibres that can become airborne when the asbestos-containing materials are damaged or disturbed. When these fibres get into the air they may be inhaled into the lungs, where they can cause significant health problems. Prolonged exposure to high levels of asbestos fibres has been link to diseases such as lung cancer, mesothelioma or asbestosis.”  (Source: Canadian Real Estate Magazine)

Real estate investing can be incredibly profitable, IF you take care of the potential problems right from the beginning.  Seek out a reputable Home Inspector to ENSURE your investment gives you the returns you deserve!
