Please share your experience in detail and provide a solution (if applicable).

Hmmm, I've made my fair share of mistakes. i'd say the biggest was not moving forward and continuing looking for deals when i had the momentum. what i'd do is go shopping, spend the money after each wholesale, then have to go do another deal after the pipeline dried up.
That and not having a system i followed religiously.

Thanks

I'd join the local REIA (real estate investor association) and find out what the other investors were doing, where they're looking for deals, what type of deals they're looking for ie. subject 2, rehabs, lease options etc...
then i'd let them know that i'm an investor friendly agent looking to serve other investors. remember to bring plenty of business cards with you to the meetings.
