What Would You Do Differently as a Passive Real Estate Investor?

What Would You Do Differently as a Passive Real Estate Investor?

I often find it fun to reflect on my past successes and failures and ask myself, "what would I do differently if I could do it again and keep the lessons learned?"  For me, I wish I would've purchased a copy of "Rich Dad Poor Dad" upon graduating High School and marching off to college with zero financial education.

I'm curious if there are any investors, who invest passively in MFAs, who'd care to share what they would've done differently if given the chance at a "do-over"?

 Great insight! The important thing is that you are taking action now! I also wish I would have read some of these books in high school.

    I wish I would invested earlier while in my early 20s. I spent all my free time chasing my bodybuilding dreams and spending far too much time in that scene.

    Same as you! I read it shortly after leaving high school, but reading it in high school would have opened my mind up to all of the things I have and am learning now. 

    Another thing- being selective of who I let into my inner circle.
