    WOLLASTON WEDNESDAY #32: How to Permit a Multi-Family Project

    As you may know, we purchased a single family property at 74 Burt St in Dorchester with the hopes to build a larger apartment building on that very lot. For this week's Wolly Wednesday, I thought I should share our experience with the process so far. ALMOST anytime you want to build something in Boston like a house, an addition, a deck, dormering a roof, adding sq footage, finishing a basement, or adding a bathroom, you're going to have to go through an extensive, timely and

    Wollaston Wednesday #27: Going in to December with 53 Units

    This week I wanted to share an update as our position as investors heading in to December. Over the last eight months, we've learned a significant amount about what we need to do better and where we want to go as developers. We took the initiative to start learning the multifamily apartment space so we could diversify our income and cashflow stream. In the book Rich Dad Poor Dad, the author discusses having businesses that create more income than expenses repeatedly. That obv

    If You Have To Fail To Succeed, You might As Well Fail Fast.

    One of Facebook’s famous mottos in its startup days was “Move fast and break things.” This meant that it was okay to not get it right the first time. They didn’t have to perfect a new feature to release it. They released it, learned from the bugs and got better. The meaning of this catchy motto goes deeper than Facebook features. This motto represents a belief that is held by millions of successful entrepreneurs. The belief that failure is not a thing to hide or run from, but

    How did we get momentum in real estate and how do we maintain that momentum today?

    I will never forget the first meeting Alex and I had with a “real” investor. Alex found him by cold calling “I buy houses cash signs” in the neighborhoods we were working. We were so excited to have a sit down with a legit investor and I am pretty sure it showed (mind you we were 23 & 24 and knew almost nothing about real estate). Little did we know that this moment would be the turning point in our infant real estate careers. We originally went in there to grow our buyer’s l

    What Doesn’t Get Measured, Doesn’t Get Improved.

    Let’s imagine John is crushing it! He is a high achiever and is moving a million miles a minute. He is doing so much that he doesn’t feel it is worth his time to track his statistics. He just made a ton of phone calls to agents. He got some properties shot over to him so he analyzes these and sends offers on the promising ones. He then makes some phone calls to homeowner leads he has. His mailing campaign is in full throttle as well and leads are trickling in through that! He

    How Having Superwoman As Our Attorney Has Gotten Us To Where We Are.

    When Alex and I were young real estate investors doorknocking the streets of Brockton, we really had no idea what we were doing. We had some coaching about how wholesales and short sales worked, but it was all theory. As we kept grinding and meeting new people, we wound up getting introduced to who would later become the most pivotal piece of our team; Attorney Shahria Boston. She took us under her wing from the beginning, spending a ton of time teaching us the ins and outs o
