An Ode to Pauses… Real Estate or Otherwise

One of the bloggers/writers I love to read is Penelope Trunk. I have subscribed to her blog The Brazen Careerist and look forward to what she says. I don’t always agree with her, but her honesty and straightforward writing always appeals to me.

The other day, she wrote about pausing and how important it is in conversations as well as elsewhere and I think she makes some good points. For example, pausing during a conversation or speech gives people a chance to digest what you’re saying, to applaud (or not!)

Here’s what I think she missed: while we are adding analogies, how about pausing while investing? Why can’t we think of the present real estate market as simply a pause instead of a calamity? The best real estate investors are patient. They think. They pause. Sometimes, it seems like, forever.

But you know who didn’t pause? Casey Serin. Not once on his way to a million dollars in bad debt.

So breathe. As long as your house is not in foreclosure, look elsewhere. Pause. Take a break. The market will recover.
