What's the biggest mistake real estate investors make?

According to our guest, it usually isn't the market...
It's the decisions they make before they ever buy the property.

After helping fund thousands of investment deals and personally flipping nearly 1,900 homes, Eddie has seen just about every mistake an investor can make—and he shares how to avoid them.

In this episode, we cover: 🏠 Hard Money Lending Explained 💰 DSCR Loans & Rental Property Financing 📈 Flipping vs. Buying Rental Properties 🔨 Contractor Horror Stories 📊 How to Analyze an Investment Deal ⚠️ The Most Expensive Mistakes New Investors Make 🏡 Houston & Texas Real Estate Market Insights
