Hi Friend,

I hope you are doing well.

Surviving long term as a real estate investor is not an easy task.  Experienced real estate investors know how much hard work and effort it takes in order to stay in the game.

New real estate investors for the most part have absolutely no idea how much commitment is involved once a rental property has been purchased.

The title of this post, “Real Estate Investing Is A Game Of Endurance” sums up very accurately the journey of purchasing rental property, owning rental property and managing rental property.

Throughout this game of ‘endurance’, you are tempted to give up when the going gets tough.  When you encounter difficulties with your rental property, the solution that presents itself seems to be to ‘sell the property’ and move on.

This solution that easily pops up, ‘selling’ is the wrong choice.  The urge to unload your investment during hard times should be resisted at all costs.

It is only through experience that a real estate investor is able to finally realize that real estate investing is indeed a game of endurance.

During the early stages of investing, it does not seem at all like a game of endurance.  Rather, the initial excitement of owning a rental property is usually the emotion that last for some time long after your purchase.

Most experienced real estate investors need a support group in order to win the game of endurance.

The support group can be fellow successful real estate investors, a wise business partner, or a fellow entrepreneur.

The support, encouragement and guidance offered by these individuals during rough times is paramount.

To last in the real estate investing game long term, and to endure all of the obstacles that lie ahead of you, draw on the support and encouragement of a select few.

Happy Investing!
