If your deal needs the market to save it, it was never a great deal.
There are only two sources of yield. The one you hope for and the one you create.
Every real estate investment has two sources of yield.
The first is the yield you hope for. Lower interest rates, higher prices, and a stronger market.
The second is the yield you create. Better operations, better financing, better execution, and better decisions.
The mistake most investors make is building a deal that only works if the market cooperates.
That works in a good market.
Until it doesn't.
The best investments create value on their own. If the market helps, that's a bonus. It should never be the plan.
Focus your time where you can influence the outcome.
