First investment VS the deal you're currently looking at?
I'm curious to see the growth many investors have made!
What was your very first real estate related investment compared to the deal you're currently looking at? Feel free to share dates, tag your investors and reminisce on the good and the bad. Each deal is a stepping stone creating how we invest today or learn about what we should and shouldn't do.

My first deal was a single family turn key in Oklahoma city. I took the strategy of scaling by deal size, so I have worked my way up to my current project of a 63,000 SF mixed use development, which includes a 37 unit affordable housing component.
