KEY QUOTE:

Do more research. Use data to your advantage. You’re in the Age of Enlightenment when it comes to data-driven real estate  and it’s shame on you if you don’t use it to make real estate profitable.”

“Make sure your project doesn’t need those external factors to double money in five years. Because those have to be gravy. I see more and more people now purchasing based on future events happening around them. And I’ve learned not to do that.”
