That’s not what kills deals.
Bad deals get people because they skip the basics.
Before you waste time on ANY deal, ask this:
Can they prove the numbers in 5 minutes?
- P&L
- Bank statements
- Tax returns
If those 3 don’t matchIt’s not a dealIt’s a story.
Most beginners lose months because they fall in love firstThen try to “figure it out” later.
I do the opposite.
I disqualify fast.
If the seller can’t show clean numbers quickly, walk.
