Totally agree, starting a hustle early is one of the best pieces of advice you can give your younger self.A few hustles I wish I had started as a kid:Lawn care & snow removal – consistent demand and easy to scale.Tutoring or mentoring younger kids – builds skills and reputation early.Buying & reselling items online – collectibles, books, tech; low startup cost.Creating content – YouTube, TikTok, or even small blogs; the earlier you start, the better.

Wishing you the best of luck on your fix-and-flip journey — that first deal is always the most exciting.

Quote from @Michael Santeusanio: For anyone who’s taken on a construction loan for a ground-up build or heavy rehab—what’s something you wish you knew before starting the process? 

I wish a 3rd platform would emerge to give the big 2 a run for their money.

The new llc he wishes to move them into already has a large number of properties in it and also has the new guy named as partial owner. 

Wish I had him again.
