Current deals are moving well overall, but one thing I’ve learned over the years is that the real challenge usually isn’t finding opportunities, it’s managing execution, liquidity, and timing at the same time. A lot of investors underestimate how quickly a good deal can become stressful when funding isn’t stable, servicing delays happen, or exit timelines stretch longer than expected. That’s the side of the business most people don’t talk about enough. What’s helped me most is building systems before scaling deals: - keeping strong funding relationships, - maintaining reserve capital, - tightening due diligence upfront, - and having multiple exit strategies before entering a deal. Right now, some of the biggest trials I’m seeing in the space are sellers wanting yesterday’s prices while buyers are demanding today’s risk adjustments. The investors navigating this best are the ones focused on cash flow, patience, and operational discipline, not just acquisition volume. Personally, I’m in the acquisition and structuring phase on a few opportunities, and I’ve found that consistency in cash flow outside of deals has also helped me move with more confidence and less pressure when opportunities come up. What would you say has been the biggest challenge in your current deals, finding the right opportunities, funding them, or getting them across the finish line?
