PROPERTY EDUCATION
I
grew up in Italy , less than 2 hours from the high mountains in the Italian Alps , so skiing is a big part of my " youth " before I moved to SA in 1999 . With Covid lockdowns behind us , I was very excited about a skiingholiday and I was not disappointed until the big crash ( will tell you more later ...)
Here is what my ski holiday reminded me of ( as it relates to property investing ):
The power of starting " early "
I started " skiing " when I was 2 years old ( well , they don ' t allow that any more ...) but skiing is totally 2nd nature for me and even after 3 years of not being on the slopes , it was so easy and quick to ski well again .
What we learn when we are young ( er ), we often masterand enjoy at the same time . It is pretty much the same thing with property investing . Start as early as possible in your youth and start as early as possible in 2023 .
Starting right is critical
Truth is the 1st property investment deal is often a " make or break " for your property success . Starting right with skiing is mainly down to have the right ski instructor that has the experience to get you going right from the first day .
As much as I am a skilled skier , my son improvements just in a week were mainly down to the experience of his instructor Margherita ( as well as his enthusiasm ).
So why re-inventing the wheel of rapid progress and success ? Millions of people have learnt how to ski before you ... what so exciting about " failing fast "... other than a bruised back-side ... Would you not benefit from having the right guidance and support from somebody like me that has invested in SA property since 2003 ? Hundreds of aspiring and growing property investors have done the same by joining our PropertyHack . Club or engaging my private coaching services .
The morning is cold but beautiful
Waking up in the dark freezing cold is tough , even for a morning person like me . But you get massive rewards for doing so . In the mornings the ski slopes are at their absolute best , smooth , powdery and with hardly anyone you need to share them with .
