訪問到這位美國資深房地產投資人，分享他的寶貴經驗！🇺🇸🏠
路人：What’s the video about? （主動受訪 🥹）
你們在拍什麼影片呢？
Claire: Okay so…What’s your name and where are you from?
你叫什麼名字來自哪裡？
路人：Tim. I live in Los Angeles.
我叫Tim 我住在洛杉磯。
Claire: And what do you do?
你是做什麼的？
路人：Invest in real estate.
投資房地產。
Claire: What got you into that?
你是怎麼入這行的？
路人：I guess watching late night infomercials.
我猜是因為看了深夜電視廣告。
Claire: How much do you make if you don’t mind me asking?
你賺多少錢，如果你不介意我問的話。
路人：The most I’ve ever made on a deal was over $400,000. But, you know, you win and you lose some.
單次交易賺過最多的一次超過一千兩百萬台幣。但你知道的有時候賺，有時候賠。
Claire: How long have you been doing this for?
你做這行多久了？
路人：About 20 years.
大約二十年。
Claire: How old are you?
那你幾歲了？
路人：51.
五十一歲。
Claire: Does he look 51? 😱 What’s the hardest part about doing your job?
他看起來像51歲嗎？工作中最困難的是什麼？
路人：Dealing with contractors can be kind of hard sometimes. People have to be people of integrity, character. If they’re supposed to show up at the job site at 7 o’clock, if they come with excuses, you just need to fire them and find a better one.
跟承包商打交道有時候很頭痛。人必須是正直、有品格。如果他們7點該到工地，如果上工時各種藉口，你就必須炒他們魷魚，然後找更好的工班。
Claire: What do you know now that you didn’t know at 20 years old?
現在你懂了哪些你二十幾歲不知道的事？
路人：As good as a deal looks, it’s not a guarantee that you’re going to make money on it. You made money on the buy, but you could just as easily lose it on the remodel. With a few bad contractors, they can rip you off pretty easily.
儘管某筆交易看起來不錯，這並不保證你能從中獲利。你在買房時賺了錢，但在改造時，你也很容易賠錢。只要來幾個差勁的承包商，他們可以輕易地敲詐你。
Claire: How do you navigate that risk?
你如何應對這種風險？
路人：Only pay them after the work is done. Don’t advance them a lot of money. That’s the best way to minimize the risk.
工作完成後才向他們付款。千萬不要預付很多工程款。這是風險最小化的最佳方法。
