When I began creating the Strait Path system, I wasn’t just looking for what would make me the most money.
I wanted a system that would create the greatest profits after considering these other core factors. Everything else being equal, I prefer to make $20,000 in a few hours of my time versus making $40,000 with a hundred hours of my time. I don’t care how lucrative a potential opportunity is — if it’s highly risky, I stay away from it.
A strategy that may make me tons of money in a hot market could very well tank when the market turns.
What sets the Strait Path system apart from almost every other form of real estate investing is one key word: sustainability. Strategies and systems that focus on profit alone may make money in the short-term, but they are unsustainable.
This applies to every system that does not consider each of the six key elements equally and holistically. These inconsistent, unreliable forms of real estate include the following: rentals; fix-and-flip; lease options; speculative building; equity leveraging; distress sales, including short sales and foreclosures; land development, residential development, and commercial development; and multi-unit investing.
