When I bought my first multifamily, I was terrified of messing everything up.
I had analysis paralysis, a bunch of Google Sheets, and way too many bookmarked BiggerPockets threads.
Now, a few deals later, I’m more confident — but I still learn something new with every property.
This past year, I've:
🏚️ Bought a four-unit with only 5% down
🔧 Managed low-budget, high-impact renovations
💸 Raised private capital for the first time
📈 Helped a few new investors close on their first deals
👀 Almost bought a 15-unit, but walked when the numbers didn’t work
Through it all, the biggest takeaway is: you learn by doing — but you scale faster by learning from others.
So I’m curious:
What’s the biggest thing you’ve learned this year in your investing journey?
What would you tell yourself if you were starting over?
Let’s learn from each other 👇
