Quotables "The goal that I think people should be thinking of is no longer whether or not the time is to get into the market because the time to get into the market is 3 days ago, it's today, it's tomorrow – because that's the only way you're gonna build generational wealth." "You just really have to know what you're looking for, as far as places that we'll see equity growth, which is really based off of location and whether or not the development has they're own school system." "Your goal is really to purchase a house that has as many bedrooms and bathrooms as you can afford, then you house-hack that with your friends." "The opportunity is again, not in long-term rentals. It's in mid-term, it's in short-term, done correctly."
