What were your struggle starting out Investing?

[Mujahidul Huq]

What were your struggles doing your first fix and flip or other investment projects? 

[Timothy VanWingerden]

I underestimated the time and money it would take. This applies to my first fixer-upper, as well as investment property. I thought I could take everything and convert it to a cost, but didn't account for the mental fatigue.

What I mean by mental fatigue is that with each step in the process, I was dealing with challenges that I have never before faced, and that was more stressful than I thought. 

Biggest struggle I would say the mental energy it takes to get the ball rolling and keep it rolling. Even though my first 2 deals have not been grand slams, it is great to look back at the past year to see how much I have learned along the way.
