Lessons learned
Discipline compounds
The properties that perform best over time tend to share a few traits: a clear plan when the asset is acquired, conservative assumptions on income and expenses, capital structure that fits the business plan, and a team that does the work after closing. Rafik's track record reflects that discipline, not market timing.
