KEY TAKEAWAYS
BEST MOMENTS
"There are enough deals to be had under normal buying conditions where you don't need to have those deposits sat there."
"I think take a step back and make sure that you're really talking to your broker. Try a couple of different brokers."
"I think people often ask when it's your first one and you don't have a recipe of what you did last time."
"I think it's just being a little bit more flexible, I guess. And that's one thing about being a small operator."
