Barriers to Buying Your First Property

[Grant Davenport]

Hey Bigger Pockets Members,

Just wondering what was (or is) the biggest barrier or hurdle you had (or have) to overcome while buying your first property. More specifically, I'm curious about the knowledge factor. Did you find it difficult to analyze properties, understand the loan options available, organize the renovation process, or perhaps master the property management component. 

Just curious what step stops the majority of people from taking real action and purchasing their first investment. 

Would love to start a discussion around it and how you overcame it!

Cheers, 
Grant
