What was your very first real estate deal like? Was it a smooth ride or more of a learning experience? I always find it interesting how people start and what they learn from their first deal.

Replied

$50,000 row house in upcoming Baltimore neighborhood 30 years ago which required full rehab. I was literally living in a construction zone, spent $35,000 and lived there 3 years while acquiring 2 other similar properties to rehab and rent out. Sold for $150,000. Not easy money but worth the sacrifices in the end.
