Lessons from your worst deal

[Kevin Semenas]

Hi Bigger Pockets Forum!

2019 was a learning year for me. I read a few books, made some connections, and continued working my day job.

In 2020 my goal is to purchase a single family/ duplex in Southeast, WI and learn a TON from it.

I boxed for 4 years in my late teens and early 20s. I realized a newbie in anything (especially boxing) learns better and quicker once they get knocked down and face adversity.

After getting knocked down I improved quickly as I knew exactly what failure/pain felt like. I learned more from one hard punch than I did in a year of training from a professional coach.

I started working on my speed and defense. When I improved on these areas, it took me to the next level.

How did you get “knocked down” in Real Estate Investing?

Instead of quitting, what did you change/ improve as a result?
