The world of the real estate magnate looks, to an outsider, to be one of constant stress. How do they manage to deal with so many properties? How are they sure they are getting a good deal? How do they sniff out a bargain and make sure that they’re the ones who are set to make an eventual profit?
It seems like a stressful way to go about making money. Yet still, people do it, because there is a certain charm to the idea. There’s no boss; there’s not really any clients; it’s all about what you can do with a space and how good you can make it. So, people play with the idea of their first investment property and hope that things will grow from there.
If they do and things go well, then surely – one presumes – that anticipated stress begins to notch up higher and higher. Is it ever possible this is a business that you could get into for a relatively easy life, or is there an inherent stress involved with real estate?
