Home buyer’s remorse, low interest rate dreams, and not taking a second look at a property. These are some touchy subjects for real estate investors who had wins but also big losses in 2022. While real estate investing is one of the best ways to grow generational wealth, it still has its home-induced headaches, either from going over budget on a project, waiting too long to buy, or doing the wrong rehab. But don’t get down if you made any of these mistakes. Our expert investors have done the same!

Welcome back to On the Market. In today’s show, Dave, Henry, James, and Kathy, talk about the biggest real estate regrets and mistakes made in 2022. This show proves that even if you’re experienced, you can still fall prey to making mistakes and losing hundreds of thousands of dollars doing the wrong deals. But this isn’t all doom and gloom. The cast shares lessons learned from these big mistakes so listeners like you can avoid these money-hemorrhaging life lessons the next time they pop up in your life.

We also talk about some of the biggest mistakes across the news in 2022. These span from the FTX crash and SBF’s fall from grace, the crypto slump of this year and last, and why so many buyers were caught off guard by the almost unprecedented interest rate hikes of earlier this year. Tune into this episode, and stick around for next week’s as we give a glimpse at what we’ll be doing to build even more wealth in 2023!
