I recently purchased my first commercial property, marking a significant milestone in my journey as an investor.

You want formal milestones, i.e.

But I guess when both the mortgage interest and depreciation finally run out, then that’s another milestone to consider...though for me I’m still years off from that!

If you want a 10-year goal, you need to create a road map of steps and milestones to hit today so you know you're on the right track.

They say it's easier after that milestone (I have no idea how true that is)

@Adam Peralto More & more owners are posting here on BP about their rentals sitting vacant too long.Which means owners aren't paying attention to the rental market - which is slowing, causing Days On Market (DOM) to increase:(Take a look at the graph below from ShowMojo, comparing average DOM for 2018-2024.DOM are now about 40% longer than they were 2 years ago.Many owners also don't seem to be aware of real estate market fundamentals, such as seasonal effects:1) After September, when kids go back to school, there's a noticeable dip in activity in both the sales & rentals.2) After Halloween, there's another noticeable dip.

Congrats on your first multifamily property – that's a huge milestone, especially at 25.

**Not sure if this graph loaded properly**  The main factor leading to the drop in multifamily sales prices could be the increase in inventory (33%) in 2024 compared to last year. 

With a remarkable three-year revenue growth of 2,326%, it’s no surprise they’ve made such an impressive mark.RentRedi has been on fire this past year, hitting milestone after milestone—from expanding their platform with new features like RentRedi Credit Boost to forming a groundbreaking partnership with the National Association of RealtorsⓇ.As part of our BiggerPockets community, we love seeing our partners succeed, especially when their growth reflects their commitment to helping landlords and renters thrive.

They are trying to show incentive to reach certain milestone price points but it doesn't necessarily align interests between the seller and broker.
