The Sneaky Cost of Waiting

How Procrastination Quietly Eats Your Returns

Every month you wait to buy, you’re not just missing potential appreciation—you’re missing principal paydown, rent growth, and tax savings. Those compound just like returns in the stock market.

I’ve never met an investor who said, “I wish I waited longer to start.” But I’ve met plenty who say, “I wish I’d bought two years earlier.” Even if your first deal isn’t perfect, time will fix what timing won’t.

So stop waiting for the perfect deal. The perfect deal is the one that gets you in the game.
