QOTW: How long did it take you to purchase your first investment?

[Alicia Marks]

Welcome to our question of the week! Based on last week's responses, we have a lot of lurkers that have not purchased their first property. Buying the first, or even second and third can feel pretty nerve wracking. Sometimes we've heard it called "analysis paralysis". How long did you learn the ropes before making your first purchase? If you haven't purchased, what's the key factor holding you back? For those that have been doing this awhile, what was that next step that you hesitated on?

Let's talk about what's holding us back! Make sure to vote in our poll as well!
