The BP community helped me as well avoid costly mistakes and everyday I am learning new just by listening to the podcast, reading the forums and most important asking questions.The great thing about your story is you kept on moving forward and now back on track.

That was a mistake.

Some folks mistake us as a P2P platform...

I still make mistakes on the statutes in the states/counties I invest in!

It's rather hard to find decent commercial properties around here paying more than an 8-9% cap rate, so it seems like my money is better spent continuing with SFR.You could easily use something else as a comparison, as long as it was a common denominator, but the important thing is that you have some reasonable way of determining where your best investments lie.First mistake you are making is assuming that a cap rate is a "return".

I thought it was a mistake.

I know I am going to make mistakes.

It touches a nerve when I hear "jump in and and learn from your mistakes" or your own statement. 

When you are sitting there at closing and there was a problem on the HUD-1,...the title attorney or closing agent would just go fix the mistake and print off a new HUD-1.
