  1. Diversify where you invest, engage multiple markets. (Partner & JV in markets you are familiar with)
  2. Diversify who is on your team and where they best fit. (People are the essential part of any business)
  3. Have cash reserves. (And not all in the same vehicle)
  4. Utilize cloud storage for all files, leads lists, and other data. (Google Drive is AWESOME, but have hard backups)
  5. Use flexible phone systems. (Think Skype & Google Voice – **we use 8×8)
  6. Choose partners and vendors that adopt similar safeguards. (As you’ll need them to be able to continue to move your deals through to closing)

In addition to this list, make sure you have phone numbers for attorneys, insurance companies and other important contacts in your emergency kit.
