If you have the will to do the due diligence and you also have the will to, 'this is what I want and I'm going to make it happen', then I would say, just do it!." - Rob Thyberg "For someone who doesn't have a big pot of money to invest with, real estate seems like the highest barrier to entry." - Rob Thyberg "When you know you're ready, you're ready. You can poke holes in any deal and be like, 'that's the reason I'm not doing it'. But the real reason you're not doing it is probably that you're scared." - Rob Thyberg "What's so great about using the VA loan is that you don't have to be rich. You don't even have to be wise. The most attractive part is how accessible it is, but you have to get over that barrier to entry. What gets me over that is speaking with real-life people who have done it, not a talking head of the internet." - Rob Thyberg Connect with Expert(ish) Podcast Host JAY JOHNSONCall (858) 925- 4536WebsiteLinkedInFacebookInstagram Listen to more episodes of the Expert(ish) PodcastiTunesSpotify
