Why Most People Quit Before Their First Deal","description":"Most people don\u2019t quit multifamily because they\u2019re not capable. They quit because what they thought this would be\u2026 and what it actually is\u2026 are two very different things. In this episode, I walk through what really happens when you start trying to get your first deal. The early excitement, the confusion when deals don\u2019t make sense, the silence from brokers, and the long stretch where it feels like you\u2019re putting in effort without seeing results. I also break down what it actually takes to stay in it long enough to get that first deal done. The patience, the repetition, the uncertainty, and the reality that even when you do get a deal, it doesn\u2019t look the way most people expect. This is not meant to convince you to do this. It\u2019s meant to give you a clear picture so you can decide if this path is right for you before you invest a lot of time and energy. If you\u2019re serious about getting into multifamily, or you\u2019re already in it and feeling stuck, this will help you reset your expectations and understand what\u2019s ahead.
