Looking beyond the expected path

Delphi describes serving in the Marine Corps, earning a bachelor’s degree, and landing a corporate job. The role paid decently, but workdays sometimes extended well beyond the scheduled hours.

That experience helped prompt an interest in real estate. After learning about Jake and speaking with the team, Delphi decided to pursue the training.

Learning through the first project

Delphi reports finding a first deal within six weeks and taking it through a project that lasted less than five months from start to finish. In the recording, Delphi says it had closed the previous day.

The story also includes the smaller moments of getting help. Delphi recalls needing information while working on the flip and receiving a quick response to a question.

The work behind the milestone

Delphi makes a point of saying that the process is not for everyone. The recording emphasizes doing the work, trying unfamiliar things, and being willing to leave a comfort zone.

The completed project is the milestone. The lesson Delphi draws from it is about learning, asking questions, and taking responsibility for the next step.
