It was often the late-stage deals that sunk the ship.

If it doesn't feel right at any point - abandon ship and get better prepared for next year.

Best of luck in your journey as you get started again.  

The usual setup is to ship supplies directly to your cleaners or have them pick up and restock items as needed.

Quote from @Brianna Crumrine: Hello BP community,My husband and I are ready to begin our real estate investment journey.

Montero, Marine Corps veteran and founder of Summit Legacy Holdings, a California-based holding company focused on building long-term wealth through BRRRR real estate investing, land acquisition, and sustainable development.I started my credit and financial journey with very limited resources, using small tools like the Self App, disciplined credit building, and consistent vendor accounts to position myself for real estate investing.

Sure you don't "need" it but one large repair can sink your ship. 

I'm 24 years old since I was 16 I've always wanted to become a real estate investor but I have not yet started due to I just don't know where and how to start not just that I feel like I lack some knowledge            My 'Why':After years of working in the restaurant industry I realized that I need a path where the room of growth is limitlessso I started googling & watching videos about investing   I got inspired and became obsessed with the idea of building massive growth through real estate investing                  But I have been feeling stuck due to I don't know how should I go by when it comes to take my first baby step  I strongly believe that I need guidance in this path   So looking for a mentor to guide me through this journey that I've always wanted to get into  I have not succeeded to find one or at least that's what I think    I'm open for constructive criticism.  

The trade-off is that appreciation is more linear; it's not the same rocket ship upside Woodlawn has, but the cash flow stability tends to be better.How I’d personally evaluate it:If I want cash flow + stability, I’d lean Pilsen.If I want long-term appreciation + can stomach tax volatility, Woodlawn.Run both pro formas with the future tax number, not what's listed.

Did it help you start your investing journey and if it did how did it help you?
