Investors with 15+ Years in the Biz

A year ago I completed my first wholesale deal. It was in CA and I made $7k. Gave $1.5k to the realtor that gave me the deal. Left way too much on the table, my buyers flipped it 27 days later and pocketed $63k. Learned a lot from that deal lol And have learned a lot in the last year.

For you guys that have made it and have a decade or two in the biz, what would you change? What do you wish you had done that you didn’t, or what didn’t you do that you wish you had? Anything you would have waited on or did quicker?

I understand that wealthier guys have less time to spend on frivolous things, but it’d be greatly appreciated by myself and other newer investors if you gave us a bit!

Thanks in advance!
