35. Want to start or expand your real estate empire? Here’s our best advice

Real estate - who knew so many of you guys wanted to know more about it!?

On episode #33 of Goalden Girls Podcast, I was joined by my husband, Troy, to talk about our real estate journey, and since then you’ve overwhelmed us with your support, comments, messages and questions about real estate. 

So many of you reached out to tell us that you too are interested in starting - or growing - your real estate investments, and we LOVE to hear that!

Today, we’re sharing with you our top tips - things we certainly have learned the hard way over the years. 

We’re talking about what to do before you start to invest, and some of the things we wish we’d known sooner on HOW to grow your real estate portfolio.  

What we’re sharing today, we hope will help you to be successful and create a plan - and take action - to make real estate work for you and your goals.   

By the end of this episode, you’ll know the mistakes to avoid when starting - or growing - your own real estate empire, whatever that means to you.  

You’ll know why knowing your GOAL is the first and most important step to investing - and how NOT doing this held us back and cost us a LOT of money over the years. 

You’ll know the questions you have to answer for yourself before you get going, tips on getting a solid financial foundation started BEFORE you invest, how to reframe your mindset around DEBT and why that matters, how to know if your home is an asset or an expense (this is SUPER important), and what research you need to do and connections to make to invest in real estate yourself.

Here are the juicy bits you can look forward to:
