Episode #150 – Delegation, Post-Mortems, and Staying In Touch With Reality


As you grow your real estate investing business, there’s a lot of pressure to delegate tasks. The more successful you become, the more money you make, and the less time you have.

But popular delegation advice for real estate investors is misguided and dangerous. This advice says you must outsource everything that isn’t worth your time — but it makes you disconnected from the reality of your business and market. The more disconnected you are, the easier it is to make money-eating and business-killing mistakes.

There’s a smarter way to delegate so your business continues to grow instead of racking up debt that could bankrupt you.

In this episode, you’ll discover how this little-talked about delegation strategy protects you from killing off your business. Listen to the episode now before you outsource another task.

Show highlights include:

  • The exact time you should start delegating tasks (4:12)
  • Why you shouldn’t always outsource tasks that don’t pay you as well as other tasks (even if all the delegation advice you find online says so) (5:35)
  • The “Connection to Reality” method for delegating tasks without sabotaging your growth (6:58)
  • The weird way outsourcing simple tasks can bankrupt your business (7:06)
  • The “Postmortem Process” that makes invisible mistakes you made that blew a deal crystal clear (13:21)
