Small Axe Podcast


Apr 18, 2022

As real estate investors, should we heavily focus on cash flow? My guests, Fernando Arias and Anna Latysheva argue otherwise as they emphasize the significance of looking into long-term appreciation and reinvestment.

Listen to the gems as they share how they started learning about the space, figuring out what they need to do to be successful, and how they continued to grow the business by acquiring properties. Surely, it will not be an overnight process to achieve success. What matters is the amount of effort you put into it.
