As recommended by the BP community, I read the "Real Estate Rewind" book above, and that quote has stuck with me. As mentioned before, I am relatively new to REI (1.5 months). I have an idea of the strategy I want to pursue (multi-unit, buy & hold). I've begun networking with local REIA members and immersing myself in REI literature (just bought 10 books, haha). I'd love to hear from the community...

"If you were to do it all  again, knowing what you know now, what would you do differently?"

My goal for this year is to make a deal for a multi-family unit. The biggest hurdle I am looking to overcome right now is figuring out how to finance it with limited capital. I know the goal, now I'm working backwards to figure out how to get there. Any advice is much appreciated.

Thanks again BP community!
