I have 19 flips in progress right now, which is the most I have ever had. There is no way I complete that many flips, write for the blog, do podcasts, and manage the other parts of my business without an awesome team. In fact I work less than 40 hours a week. I make sure the tasks I work on are things I enjoy doing and delegate everything else. Having a team has made me much more successful than I could ever be on my own. I am also much happier and less stressed out because of my team. I hear people say they don't want a team because of all the work it takes managing people and they can do the job better themselves anyway. Even if you like working non-stop by yourself, it is not smart and usually not maintainable. What happens if you get sick, get in an accident, or cannot work?
