I put my first BiggerPockets networking event on my calendar and am nervous.

I am appealing the appraisal but am nervous that will not be done by next week. 

I would send out mailers, get responses from sellers be really nervous to talk to them and suck at the conversation. i was putting way too much pressure on myself to make the sale when in fact what I should have cared about first was just getting comfortable talking with the sellers first.

This will help you not be as nervous sitting down with your first seller and trying to negotiate a price.

Patrick - I work for the city so I have sat in on an auction but buying a house at auction makes me nervous because you dont know what you are getting in to.

I am nervous about renting in CA due to the laws when compared to being a landlord in Texas but one of the benefits of being a real estate investor is investing in markets that you like to visit.

@Greg Dickerson I just moved to this area from Columbia, SC very nervous about this area.

Ultimately my partners were nervous we did not have enough rehab support structure in those areas to take them on. 

It didn't make me nervous because I could pay off the Mortgage and solve my cash flow problem.Over time, I actually paid off the Mortgage to increase my Cash Flow so I can become financially independent.Paying off the Mortgage to increase the Cash Flow was not a characteristic of the Property, it was a choice that I made.From the day I paid off my Mortgage and cash flowed that property, I was financially independent.Do I think that the property I bought with ZERO cash flow was because of the Property?

Even then, I would be a little nervous.
