Tools for the decisions
that belong to you.
Print these two short pages and add your notes. The five detailed handouts are available after you enter your name and email on the book page.
RESOURCE 01 / STARTER PLAN
Your First 90 Days
The first quarter is about building a decision system. A purchase is one possible result; a clear reason to wait or pass is also progress.
Choose your fit
Narrow the market, asset type, return goal, time demand, and the conditions that would make you say no.
Build your bench
Identify the operator and advisors who will source, finance, inspect, operate, and help you assess a property.
Screen opportunities
Use your criteria to rule out poor fits quickly. Ask for evidence before spending hours on a promising story.
Verify and decide
Run the likely and downside cases, list remaining unknowns, and choose to proceed, decline, or wait for a specific answer.
RESOURCE 02 / WEEKLY ROLE WORKSHEET
What belongs in your five-hour role?
Use this as a boundary, not a requirement to fill five hours every week. Record the work only you can decide and who will handle the rest. Your entries stay in this browser until you print or leave the page.
