Transitioning Through Investment Phases
Investing in rental properties typically follows three distinct phases: the starter phase, growth phase, and harvester phase. In the starter phase, individuals focus on gaining knowledge, acquiring capital, and developing the courage to make their first investments. During the growth phase, the emphasis shifts to leveraging opportunities to expand one's portfolio significantly. By the time investors reach the harvester phase, they begin to shift their priorities towards cash flow and debt reduction, reflecting a need for stability and the enjoyment of their financial achievements.
