Investment Properties

I'm curious to see how people look at what an investment property means to them. When we invest in something we are positioning our money to work for us. You may think of an investment property as a rental situation and shy away from it because frankly it will suck up some of those dollars for as long as you own it.

Don't make a "Goal" instead make a "Promise"

This is the time of year that many of us start to think about 'setting goals'. I try to pull out my “Goal Plan” (a sheet of paper I wrote them on) to see where I am on their achievement on a regular basis. I end up 'hitting' some and not others. I started to give this more thought and study this month in anticipation of the New Year (Resolution). I came across a Bill Bateman video on iLG where he was talking ab… Continue
