"I finally took the plunge and got my first deal! It's because of the sincere, honest, and highly qualified advisors that encouraged me to take the first step. I was always stuck in analysis paralysis. Just think — isn't it way better to do it with them in your corner than navigating it on your own? A resounding YESSSS!"

"I became a two-property owner in one day. Two PadSplit homes in Jacksonville — 12 tenants in place. The hardest part wasn't underwriting; it was choosing a strategy and location. Once I committed, the rest followed: network, agent, tours, numbers, close."

"Big win! Third time is the charm. My first flip is finally going to be hitting the market. This is the third property I've gotten under contract since joining First Deal. I never thought I'd be on deal #2 in my first year. Let's gooo!"

"The courses were incredibly helpful in getting us started, and the timely consultation made the offer and closing process so much smoother. Our listing just went live yesterday, and we got our first booking today!"

"Closed today on brrrr. First off-market deal. First time filling out my own buy-sell agreement. First hard money loan with rehab cost built-in. It should cash flow pretty well for my area."

"Closed this morning on my second property — an off-market 6-family I've been working on since mid-May. I even got my first $3.50 in laundry money. There's plenty of work ahead, but I'm looking forward to the challenge. On to the next deal!"

"Just closed on my first property today, a condo in Orlando as a short-term play. I've been reading a ton of books and all the pieces were in my brain, but having the classes helped me validate and organize the knowledge. On to the next one."

"I joined First Deal on February 26th, and today on March 28th my offer on a SFH for a STR was accepted. It's on a beautiful river, 15 minutes from a major ski resort — should rent well both summer and winter. Such a huge step!"

"Picked up the keys to my first investment property — a 4B/2.5BA in greater Palm Springs. I'm opening a residential care home for the elderly. Checking two bucket list items with two businesses in one location. Thanks to First Deal REI mentors!"

"Just joined and already closing on a flip Friday. Happy to be here."

"Just closed on my second property since joining First Deal — a fix and flip outside my Crystal Clear Criteria, but a deal I could not pass up. Thank you to First Deal for giving me the nudge I clearly needed!"

"The support and accountability from the advisors is exactly what I needed to finally take the leap. What I was doing wrong was not taking action. That realization was so helpful when it came time to make a decision and move forward."

"Officially closed on my first deal today — doing a Padhacking strategy (PadSplit + House Hack). This journey has been one of learning and growth. Here's to dreaming big, taking action, and celebrating wins along the way!"

"Congrats to Tobby who just purchased a great turnkey tri-plex in Ohio, planning to run it as a mid-term rental for serious cash flow. Way to start the year strong!"

"Under contract and passed inspection on my second property since joining — this will be an STR."

"I now have my first property under contract. Bought at $127,500 with $1,542/mo rent. Estimated cash flow $275–300/mo, 7% cash on cash, 13% ARR with a 30% down DSCR loan. All numbers I like."

"Closed on my first deal yesterday — a fix and flip JV with a friend. Had our GC with the demo crew at 7:30am this morning starting demo and roof replacement!"

"Closed on my second property since joining — this is my second deal since joining First Deal last November. I never thought I'd be on deal #2 in my first year. Let's gooo!"
