Are you looking to build a sizeable property portfolio? Then Luke Harris and Matthew Bateman from Property Mentors may well be your answer if you want a helping hand on the investment ladder.
It pays to note Let’s Get Real is more than just real estate. It’s more about getting ‘real with your attitude, getting real with your mindset’.
The focus is on the investor, rather than just the investment. It’s a call-to-action to all Australians who want to take control of their destiny and fulfill their life goals. The authors believe that most property investors don’t succeed because they approach investing in the wrong way – it’s not about the property, it’s about the investor.
Along with understanding the motivation, people’s mindset needs to be correct being definitive about goals is essential. When you combine that with a team of experts, then you will easily move from your current position to the next level where you can achieve your goals.
“As the name suggests, The Property Mentors is a business that’s designed to assist investors at whatever level, helping to get them to the next level. So, if you’re just starting out, you’re new to the game, and you want to know how to shortcut the learnings and learn how to do things properly from the start, then that’s an invaluable service that we offer.”
If you have more than a couple of properties and want to take the portfolio to the next level, then “experienced investors will work with members on a one-on-one basis to help them really accelerate their results”.
More important, at times, than the actual property is to remember that part of the process of becoming a successful property investor is having the attitude and the approach behind your long-term investment plans.
