Episode 93 - Newbies #2 - Buying your first deal

This is the second podcast focusing on the new apartment buyer. "The first transaction is the hardest…" continues to be our theme. Today, we talk to a couple that was motivated to think about creating a passive income stream by a serious car accident. That life changing event put a new perspective on how important passive income can be. Doug is a dentist in north Texas and was severely injured in an auto accident. He was in a coma for over a week and in physical therapy for months. Imagine not being able to work and earn income during the period time that you are recovering. Think of the impact that this would have on your family. This may never happen to you; but it could.
