The BetterLife Podcast The Three WORST Real Estate Deals We've Made
Every investor has these. The deal they knew was sketchy, and bought anyway. The one where they ignored the red flags. The one where they just flat out didn't know what they were doing yet.
In this episode, Cam Cathcart and I each share our three worst deals. What we paid. What went wrong. What it cost us. And what we'd do differently.
Cam took an $80,000 loss on a house where the previous flippers hadn't pulled a single permit, meaning he had to gut the entire thing twice. I worked 12 months straight on a duplex, lost $15,000, and then watched that same property hit half a million dollars years later after I'd already sold it at 120.
We also talk about what happens when you stop paying attention to a property that's been running fine, why turning down that first weekend offer is almost always a mistake, and why all three of Cam's bad deals were outside his buy box.
We don't share these to scare you off. Deals go bad. That's part of it. The goal is just that when yours does, it's not one of these.
