For members with experience in Commercial Real Estate Investing, what mistake shows up again and again? Financing assumptions, rehab costs, rent projections, management issues, and exit plans are all welcome topics.
A good first step is to document everything clearly and compare a few options before committing.
In my experience, asking direct questions early saves a lot of time and reveals problems faster.
I would also check the hidden costs, because they usually matter more than people expect at the beginning.
This is one of those situations where written records and clear expectations make a huge difference.
