So these laws are like the laws of physics, or the law of gravity. They never change. The six immutable laws of real estate investing: Always insist on a margin of safety. In other words the goal is not to buy at fair market value but to purchase with a margin of safety. This time is never different. The four most dangerous words in investing - "this time is different." Whenever someone starts saying this time it’s different, get out of that investment as quickly as you can. Be Patient and Wait for the Fat Pitch. "Patience is integral to any value-based approach... However patience is in rare supply." In commercial real estate there is a time to wait and there is a time to act. When things go bad, the tendency is to dump our real estate quickly, when the prudent thing to do is wait. Be Contrarian. Humans are prone to the herd instinct. When everyone is buying they buy; when everyone is selling they sell. Look to buy when everyone else is selling. Be Leery of Leverage. In many instances owners with properties that were over leveraged loss of their properties. Those homeowners who used their homes as ATM machines learned the hard way too as many lost their homes. Never Invest In Something You Don't Understand. You should never invest in a property type or location you don’t fully understand.
