DIY is an acronym for “Do It Yourself.” The question is, “Should you?” Will doing it yourself meet your goals or would hiring the work done better serve your interests?
I may have mentioned once or twice that I’ve spent a lot of money over the years educating myself in various real estate investment methodologies. In fact, if I had all that money back, I would be able to buy another rent house with what I knew when I started. Given the results of that investment, I think the money was well spent.

- Network, network, network!
- Buy right.
- Don’t do the rehab yourself.
