I'm seriously contemplating the idea of investing in searchers' deals, and would love to hear from folks who have been doing it for sometime. What are your lessons learned, mistakes made, and biggest takeaways? Much appreciated in advance!

I would say that operational due diligence is more important than what you see on the financials. I learned this lesson the hard way right now. I’m doing due diligence on an Insurance restoration company and I’m digging up all kinds of hidden gems .
