Giving value before marketing yourself

Fredrik has a 5Fs strategy when it comes to finding and managing real estate deals.    The 5 Fs stand for Find it right - The right price is a low and cheap price that is below the market average.  Fund - Find a way to fund the properties you’re interested in investing in. Fix it - Add value to your new asset Flip it or fill it Flourish. - Keep growing from every deal that you make, learn and grow with every step you take.   Doing all these things right means a normal purchase becomes a source for huge profits for him and his associates. Once the deal has been done, Fredrik takes the profits he’s made and then recycles them into another project.    The main source for Fredrik’s deals is ensuring he’s highly visible through giving free valuable advice and resources to people who are interested.  A normal month for Fredrik involves an average of 2-3 speaking engagements in venture capitalism, private equity and real estate.   This usually offers him high returns in terms of constant phone calls from potential clients who would love to work with him.
