Why You Should Consider Real Estate Investing

How do you protect yourself from fraud and operator shortcomings as an investor? Jeff Watson joins me on the show today to talk about just that. As an active attorney, general counsel to the National Real Estate Investor’s Association, and cofounder of Realeflow LLC, Jeff offers a unique perspective on real estate investing, wealth-building, and asset protection.

Listen in as he explains why investing in real estate makes sense in all market cycles, why asset-based private lending is part of our portfolios, and how to protect yourself against fraud and operator shortcomings. You’ll also learn how to build your own team that allows you to operate safely, efficiently, and with less stress. Jeff gives valuable insight into the legal side of loans and ways to better protect your investments for years to come.
