The Real Estate Investor's Magazine
By Joe Arias
Investing in real estate is a skill that can be developed over time. However, the skill of real estate investing is composed of sub-skills and traits that add up into the overarching experience and know-how on how to invest in real estate. By understanding the keys of what makes a good real estate investor, you can make the adjustments needed to also become a good real estate investor. The good news is that none of the skills or traits needed to become a successful real estate investor require anything that you wouldn’t have access to.

Becoming a good real estate investor involves developing the right relationships and growing your network. Every good real estate investor knows that the right network provides support and opportunities. Who should be included in your network? Focus on finding mentors, other investors, agents, mortgage brokers, lawyers, and potential business partners. You can leverage each individual’s experience to further your own investment goals. Sign up to local real estate organizations and online communities to find individuals to network with.
A good real estate investor understands the value of constantly learning. It is important to stay up to date with the latest industry news, current events, and changes in laws when it comes to real estate and any other business as a matter of fact. But also, it is important to continue learning new real estate investing related skills and sharpening the ones you already have. Investing in real estate can become very competitive. By taking the time to learn and continue to educate yourself, you can become a good real estate investor and stay competitive in the marketplace.

A jack of all trades is a master of none. There are many different niches within real estate. Most investors fail by trying to tackle them all. Niches such as buy and hold, fix and flip, wholesaling, section 8, commercial, and much more are some of the many niches that an investor can get involved in when it comes to investing in real estate. Take the time to find a niche that aligns best with your goals and approach to investing. Once you’ve chosen your niche, take the time to master that niche. By being the best at one thing, you are setting yourself up for greater success.
The best place to start investing is in your own backyard. Why? Because you already know the market. You are familiar with the good neighborhoods versus the bad. You know where all the public transportation is and all the best shopping. If you don’t live in the market you are investing in, then still become an expert. Every market is different. The more you know about a particular market empowers you to make better decisions and avoid costly ones. Take the time to truly understand your market and you will be able to spot better quality deals which in turn, will be much more profitable deals.

“I came from Argentina when I was 20, I am 40 years old now. I didn’t know anyone, I am CERO generation, usually people say, I am first or second generation but I was the one that crossed the border, no language, no friends, no family, no money, nothing, nada… If I can do it, anyone can.”
From a young latino immigrant to a celebrated real estate investor, Joe is a true testament to hard work and discipline. As an investor, he has made it his mission to help others achieve financial freedom while enjoying living a life of passion, fulfillment, and empowerment.
