How to Video: Choosing a Partner

I think of choosing a business partner like choosing a spouse.  It’s actually more difficult legally to get out of a partnership than it is to get out of a marriage.  Because of this, it is so crucial for you to take time when selecting a partner for your real estate business, or any other [...]

Negative Equity

As you know, with any investment comes risk.  Real estate is not excluded from that.  Jim Piccolo, a master entrepreneur and venture capitalist says, “If anyone says ‘no risk’ and ‘investment’ in the same sentence…RUN!”  Although real estate has made my life better than I ever thought possible, there is risk in investing, and this [...]

Investing in Bronzeville

Shooting this video was really fun.  We went out to the forest preserve near my home in Aurora.  We took the whole family!  Kristina was carrying Harrison, and Kent was jumping in puddles and looking at the “ducks.”  (He calls Canadian geese “ducks.” We figure that’s close enough for now.)  It was a hot, gorgeous [...]
