512: Renovation Mistakes That Kill Your Profit (Rehab Tips)

from The DealMachine Real Estate Investing Podcast · host Or Agassi, David Lecko, Ryan Haywood

David and Ryan sit down with Or Agassi to break down the renovation decisions that can make or break your deals. They cover how over-renovating eats into your margins, why understanding your buyer matters more than picking high-end finishes, and how to build a repeatable process that keeps your costs under control.
