3 Key Points:

1. Ask yourself first if you’re willing to give up security that doesn’t have much potential to venture into something that has unlimited risks but has the ultimate growth.
2. Identify what kind of investment strategy would you want to associate yourself with and make a plan from there.
3. There would be a lot of risks in terms of housing development that’s why it’s important to continuously test out the business model.
