The One Thing Keeping Agents From Investing w/Gino Barbaro

Investing is an enticing idea for many agents, but between all our existing responsibilities and the day-to-day grind, it’s something we just never get around to actually doing. However, if we don’t take the plunge now we never will, so it’s time to get started. What are the things holding us back from making the first move, and are any of them truly insurmountable? How can we push through the obstacles, once and for all?  What will it take for us to truly commit to investing, so we stop limiting ourselves to making money and start building long-term wealth? In this episode, co-founder of Jake & Gino, Gino Barbaro shares his tips for first-time investors.  "There’s no such thing as the right time to start anything, it just happens when it happens, and you figure it out as you go." -Gino Barbaro   Three Things You’ll Learn In This Episode ▪️ Why we need to take the leap into investing NOW:  Many of us haven’t taken the plunge yet because we’re waiting for the ‘right’ time to start. However, there is no right time, and the only way to get started is by jumping in and learning along the way.  ▪️ How to get into investing with minimal capital:  Not having the cash for a first deal holds many would-be investors back, but it doesn’t need to. Make a point of networking with other investors and partner with them to share some of the costs.  ▪️ Why it’s so important to surround ourselves with other investors:  Those who have gone before us have the cheat codes, making them vital contacts. However, another benefit of networking with other investors is that we realize they’re just like us. As a result, our dreams feel much more viable.   Guest Bio: Gino Barbaro is an investor, business owner, author, and entrepreneur who has grown his real estate portfolio to over 1400 multifamily units.
