However many experienced investor deliberately delegate majority of the acquisitions duties to their mentee; which is understood because that value of creating opportunities are extremely important in a young investor career.

Closing on two units simultaneously was a deliberate part of my strategy, but there are pro’s and con’s to this approach:Pro’s- Each step in the process I’ve completed x2 at a time, saves a ton of time- As a new investor, my growth and learning curve seems to be accelerated as I do everything twice- Comparative analysis, I can measure experience on one property against the other - Working with one lender, settlement on both properties on one date- I double up the items on my task lists, which means if I make a mistake on one, I correct it on the other- Twice the investment means twice the income Con’s- Twice the amount of physical work, driving, cleanup and maintenance- Twice the risk exposure on the investment, I have two applications pending on one while the other I’ve decided to lower the rent- While my interest rates were very competitive, as a new investor I had to put 25% down on both propertiesSo far in the process, although I put more money down up front, it seems like closing on two units simultaneously has been advantageous to my cash flow strategy.
