Key takeaways

  • Evaluate a rental market before you fall in love with a building
  • Underwrite deals on real numbers — rents, vacancy, capital and carry
  • Run renovations without letting the budget run you
  • Structure financing and cash flow for durability, not just upside
  • Build systems so the portfolio does not depend on your attention every day

The lessons in this book still shape how Boaz coaches business owners and investors today — build the asset, then build the system that runs it.
