About
Owning apartment buildings is like owning a chain of small businesses. Each building (business) caters to a different type of customer, in a different location, with different expectations and profit margins. From the highly profitable but high-touch low income properties to the extremely picky but reliable upper-middle class, your business plan must be flexible. Apartments offer passive income with the tangible value of bricks, wood, and concrete.
Mike Mariani has been a real estate investor for a decade. Mike is drawn to the people aspect as well as the tangebility that real estate offers. Mike has followed a strict belief of honesty, integrity, and respect which has enabled him to build his business a strong and lasting foundation which has stood strong throughout a suffering economy. Over the years, Mike’s investment strategy has evolved to purely focus on apartment buildings. Like a professional sport, focusing on one aspect will make you the most successful.
Another thing about Mike… he likes his humor. Entrepreneurship is incredibly stressful and difficult, let alone apartment investing. Lawsuits, health hazards, injuries, stupid people, angry people, it’s enough to cause wrinkles and gray hair. Humor is natural prozac, it takes the edge off. It takes seemingling devastating and disasterous situations, and makes them manageable.
This blog will give you a look into the life of an apartment investor. The good and the bad. The wacky situations and the funny people. Hope you enjoy it and derive as much therapy from reading it as I get from writing it.
