| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome. My name is Gino Barbara, one of the co-founders of Jake and Gino. And in this how-to podcast, I'm going to be diving into the top 10 questions that you need to ask before you're buying that next multifamily. Let's just jump right in because this is such an important topic. We're talking about due diligence. And as Tony Robbins says, the better the questions that you ask, the better the answers you're going to get. |
| 0:24.2 | And it's very challenging when you're starting off as a beginning investor. |
| 0:27.4 | I was there. |
| 0:28.3 | You always have these preconceived notions going into a deal and thinking that the seller wants the highest price. |
| 0:33.7 | The seller wants this. |
| 0:35.0 | You honestly don't know until you start asking these questions. |

| 1:24.6 | lack motivation. We lack clarity or focus. Once you have that |
| 1:28.3 | clarity and the focus, you're able to look at more deals. That's the real challenge. Trying to |
| 1:32.2 | look as many deals as possible until you find that one that you want to close on. Number one, |
| 1:36.7 | very important. Why are you selling Mr. or Mrs. Seller? Why is it that you're selling? |
| 1:42.0 | There's a variety of reasons. Understand what their |
