Why and How Did I Get Into Owning Investment Properties?

Posted on October 19, 2022

READING TIME:

People always ask me, “why did you get into owning investment properties, and why should I?”

Where It All Began

The story behind this is that my grandmother bought a property for $10,000 in a brown paper bag in one of the worst parts of Boston. When they came over as immigrants, they did not speak English.

Over the years, this building has helped feed my family. It has provided so much for every single generation after my grandmother. The building is now worth over $3 million, which is just crazy to hear.

To think that this all started with one person buying a property—one property—and to be able to pass it through generations where I am still benefiting from it. My grandchildren hopefully will as well.

And all you need to do is to take care of it. Whether you do it yourself or hire a property manager is up to you.

Freedom With Owning Investment Properties

Now, think about it. If you buy a property every few years or every year, what you can do for the next generation is to be able to give them a choice.

I saw this, and I started buying investment properties myself because I want to have the freedom of choice and the ability to do what I want. 

So now, my team takes care of my properties, and I can do what I love: travel the world and serve.

I can do this remotely because most of the time, all I need is an admin staff to be in charge of the property: making sure the maintenance is taken care of and that we lease it out once a year (because it’s a 12-month lease).
