How To Evaluate Your
Real Estate 'Coach'
Right now, everywhere you turn you hear people offering Real Estate 'coaching
Services'. So how do you know if this service will be of value to you? Below are
some key due diligence questions to ask if you are looking for a coach:
-
What is in it for them?
-
Do they have a financial incentive to get me to
take a particular action based on the
information they're giving me?
-
Are they trying to coach me by getting me to buy
a piece of Real Estate they are selling me?
-
Do they have experience in the market or are
they part of the cult of opinion? (These guys
know someone who knows someone who did something
somewhere. That's not good enough for you!)
-
Are they currently investing in real estate and
using the strategies they're teaching?
-
Do they have a bare minimum of 20 real estate
transactions to their name, thereby giving them
the experience of dealing with different buying
and selling situations?
-
Have they been investing for at least five
years, preferably 10 years, giving them
experience in different market conditions? It's
even better if they've been through a full up
and down real estate cycle, which often takes a
decade or more.
Force yourself to ask the tough questions, and not allow
yourself to commit to a coach until all the homework is done.
