A super commonly asked question we get at APS and that is actually sent in as a question regularly for the Q&A's is - should I buy now or wait?

Running the gauntlet with some advanced lending scenario and doing whatever it took to build himself a portfolio. He shares what he has built today, and where he's going to take it in the future.

This episode has been a long time coming! Today, we step into the proverbial dog run to dive deep into Jimmy Ibrahim's own portfolio.
There are some battle scars on the old dog, and he's been through a lot in his journey and it's time for Sammy to step on the other side of the mic and ask Jimmy all the questions about his own journey and how he built a 10 property portfolio in a few short years.
There were house fires, builds, renovations and business collapses. Almost everything you could think of popping up, Jimmy has tackled.
Strap yourself in folks, this one is going to be a good one!
