7FF 270: Why MISTAKES Are the Best Teachers (and How This Former Teacher 5X'd Her House Flipping Business)

September 6, 2019

About This Episode

We all make mistakes in the flipping / wholesaling business.

It’s inevitable…

And it’s a GOOD thing.

Without mistakes, we can’t grow.

Amanda learned this firsthand.

She was a teacher for 21 years and started flipping houses on the side to supplement her income.

She got to the point where she was doing about 3 or 4 deals per year.

But the workload was starting to get out of hand.

She was managing rentals, flipping houses, working as a teacher and a counselor, being a single mom to her kids…

…and while the extra income helped, she wanted more time and freedom.

Today, things are different for Amanda.

She’s done 26 deals so far this year.

She’s spending more time with her kids.

But there were some “mistakes” she made along the way…
