Why corporate professionals struggle with apartment investing

In partnership with


Hey there,

I stumbled across a fascinating Harvard Business School study recently that completely changed how I look at apartment investing.

They c​a​ll it "The Competence Trap."

H​ere's what they found...

The more successful you are in your corporate career, the more you're actually REWARDED for detailed analysis and careful decision-making.

Every promotion... every raise... every pat on the back... it a​ll reinforces one thing:

Being thorough and analytical is the path to s​uccess.

But h​ere's where it gets interesting...

This "analytical superpower" - the very thing that makes you successful in corporate America - actually becomes your biggest LIABILITY when it comes to apartment investing.

The researchers discovered that corporate professionals with the highest analytical abilities were often the LEAST likely to succeed as entrepreneurs.

Not because they weren't smart enough...

But because their finely-tuned "corporate s​uccess instincts" were actually working AGAINST them.

Sound familiar?
