You Can’t Compete with Wall Street Money, But You Can Still Win in This Market: Here’s How with Jake Harris

Distressed properties may be hard to come by now, but they will be plentiful in the near future. When the market turns, there’ll be hundreds of properties ripe for acquisition. If you get caught up in buying assets in this speculative market, you’ll have no capital to take advantage of this opportunity.

How do you move in a market with hedge funds gobbling up entire neighborhoods? What is the criteria for buying distressed property? In this episode, I’m joined by Jake Harris, a longtime investor and author of “Catching Knives: A Guide to Investing in Distressed Commercial Real Estate”. He talks about all the challenges investors are experiencing in the current market, and the moves you can make to avoid losing money.

Being wealthy means removing yourself from the economic gravity of the market fundamentals. – Jake Harris
