How did your first REI deal change your life?

How did your first REI deal change your life?

Tomorrow I am submitting my earnest money deposit for my first REI deal! A 7 unit property plus a single family home with over 4K gross monthly rent for 160k. No joke, and it has many recent updates. I am about 80% excited and 20% scared. This will be a game changer for my family since this properties NOI will likely be more than what I make at my 9-5 job! Feels like I am about to cross over into a new world. This will get my wife and I much closer to our goal of financial independence and quality time together as a family.

Looking back to your first deal, how has your life changed because of that first property and going down the road of real estate investment? Thanks!
