  • Summary

  • $60,000 lost before. $20,000 on the line again.

    One investor bailed. Another hesitated. My lender dragged their feet. And I signed the closing documents while waiting tables at my second job—between orders and clearing tables.

    This is the final chapter in the raw, chaotic, and very real story of how I closed on a 6-unit apartment building—juggling three jobs, a full family life, and relentless stress.

    Inside this episode:

    · How I negotiated $50K off the purchase price

    · Why I went with hard money (and what it cost me)

    · How I raised $150K in 5 days after my main investor bailed

    · What it really feels like to bet everything—and almost lose

    If you’re waiting for perfect timing, stop. Deals don’t die—people quit.
