5 Reasons Why the Best Deals Are Too Big for the Little Guys

5 Reasons Why the Best Deals Are Too Big for the Little Guys...

When I started out, I thought small deals were the smart, safe way to grow. Duplexes, fourplexes.... they felt manageable and within reach. But as I scaled, I realized something: the real opportunities were out of reach because I was thinking too small.

Here’s what I’ve learned about why the best deals are often “too big” for small investors:

1️⃣ Less Competition:

Everyone’s chasing duplexes and single-family homes. Larger properties? They intimidate most investors, which means less competition and better opportunities.

2️⃣ More Reliable Cash Flow:

A single vacancy in a duplex is 50% of your income gone. But in a 50-unit building? One vacancy barely makes a dent. Scale brings stability.

3️⃣ Access to Professional Management:

Big deals attract experienced property managers who make operations smoother and more efficient—saving you time and stress.

4️⃣ Better Financing Terms:

Lenders see larger properties as safer investments. Bigger deals often come with better interest rates and terms, making them more profitable long-term.

5️⃣ Wealth Creation Through Scale:

Raising rents by $100 across 50 units isn’t just a small win—it’s a game-changer. The math on bigger deals compounds faster, creating exponential returns.

If I had stayed in my comfort zone, I’d still be chasing small deals, stuck in the grind. Stepping up to larger properties was a mindset shift—and it’s been the single biggest driver of my growth.

So, what’s stopping you from thinking bigger? Let’s break out of the small investor mindset and talk about where the real money is.
