How Real Estate Coaching Changed Tarek’s Life
Tarek has humble beginnings—before he stuck fame on HGTV, he was selling knives door-to-door, delivering pizzas, and living out of his mom’s garage. At one point, he felt like he had hit rock bottom financially, and decided to take on a real estate coaching program. This is when everything changed. By following a proven system, and promising himself he would work hard, Tarek was able to find success in real estate. After 90 days committed to the program, he made $120k in commissions.
The Truth About “the Secret to Success”
Tarek says there is no secret to success. In fact, it’s quite simple: find a plan and execute! If you have a proven system and the willingness to put in the hard work, success will follow. The key is to be persistent, and push yourself outside of your comfort zone.
The Mistakes Tarek Made in Season 1 of Flip or Flop
Like most successful real estate investors, Tarek made numerous mistakes on deal. He electrocuted himself, he painted the baseboards to the floor, and more. But on the other hand, he did one thing right—he turned a profit of $34k. Tarek explains that in real estate, you should expect to make mistakes; when you’re starting out, it’s part of the process. However, if you buy right, you will make money.
What to Do with the Incredible Profits from Flipping Homes
What you might not know about Tarek is that he’s not just a house flipper. He is also a buy and hold investor! Because house flipping is so profitable, Tarek is able to use his earnings to purchase performing assets.
