First investment

[Syed Khan]

Hello everyone,

I have been reading the books that are recommended at bigger pockets and have been getting a lot of great information. I want to find out from other investors about how much time did they put in learning before buying the first property? When do you feel comfortable going with your first investment. What are the mistakes you have made in your first investment? Did you get all the contractors ready before you started looking for your house? Was it a traditional bank loan? Or some kind of creative investment. Any insights for this newbie will be very helpful. Thank you all.
