OK, goofy heading, but for those who haven't been reading my journal this month, I wanted to share this purchase I'm in the middle of. I happened to put a post on Facebook last month about a rental property I was thinking of selling. I had a party respond that actually had just that day decided to sell off all their rentals (5 duplexes and a SFR). They presented such a great deal I switched gears to being the buyer instead of the seller. I was the first one to know of their decision, and knew to jump on it fast after viewing the properties. (ANSWER WHEN OPPORTUNITY KNOCKS! QUICKLY!!!!!!!!!!!)

I purchased Dean's book in July of 2008 with my last $30.00. I was broke, depressed and in Foreclosure.

I can hardly believe that was a little over a year ago and I am now bringing in $ 2,000 to $ 5,000 a month and have done two $10,000 assignment. My first $10,000 assignment deal was only 2 months after I purchased the book. It is not only my financial situation that has changed but I now have confidence that my life is successful.

Hey guys!

I'm super psych'd!!! I just got another single family home on Friday. This one is a beautiful 4/2, 2300 sq ft, 2 car garage, CAC with a 75% finished basement, in an excellent neighborhood.

I found this one after asking my agent to run "below assessed, quick sale, relocation, divorce" buzz words in some of the higher end neighborhoods. It turns out I found a regular sale that was priced 58K lower than FMV by a relocation company.

I just received notice from my RE that I got an accepted offer on an REO I bid on yesterday. It is a triplex, that I paid 114k for and a conservative FMV is 255k.
