We are closing either today or tomorrow on our first deal. We have a couple minor hiccups in the way that we are trying to get ironed out, but our first stab at real estate was after studying the Edge 2011 and the 30 day Quick Cash Formula. We have no other training. It's not time to celebrate, the deal is not complete, but it's very close. We locked up a duplex for $32,500 that has been abandoned for 7 or 8 years. The roof is new and the foundation is solid and it is brick, so we went for it. IT needs about $20K in rehab and each side can rent for about $550. The ARV is estimated at $80K.

NegotiationTime Question
October 9th, 2011 | posted by travisderodI'm trying my best to get my first deal in through the door. I spotted a seller that would like to sell their home for way under FMV. But, he's not really flexible with the terms and does not want to do owner financing. He would like to sell the home. He's also a retired investor and does not want anything to do with being a landlord. I'm going to write up an offer, give it to him and leave it up to him to decide. But, what are some key words I should ask or say to spice it up so we can move forward on this deal?

Where are my Texas Buyers?
October 7th, 2011 | posted by Lane McCawI am working on a deal in New Braunfels Texas.
It is my family member, her husband works 300 miles away from home and she wants to move closer to him.
She is willing to sell at a discount in order to get it done fast.
No set asking price yet.
What I need is someone down in the area to go look at the house for me and partner with me on this deal and find a buyer for it.
HAVE YOU HEARD OF THIS?
October 6th, 2011 | posted by Rando1When the tax assesor siezes a property for yrs of unpaid taxes, the house is auctioned off and sold of course. But here's the kicker. A 200K house may be sold for 80K, The taxes owed may only be 20K. The $60,000 is held for the legal owner. All the legal owner has to do is show up and file a claim to get his money. But, almost nobody ever does, why?
Possibly My first deal
October 1st, 2011 | posted by femailceoI got a call that someone want to buy the house from my website. It is not a done deal yet, but I am hopeful and hope that all goes well. I also have another person wanting to buy the house, so hopefully one of them will. I will just be the birddog in this deal, so it is not a big deal, but my first nonetheless. I do have a question though. If the 1st person buys, I will have to tell the second person it is gone. It almost looks like a ghost ad, because it (if it sells) went so fast. So really what is the difference in ghost ads as far as people really know? Houses can move rather fast. Tammy
Another deal accepted!
September 29th, 2011 | posted by TomAndJeriAfter returning from our well-deserved vacation, using our Real Estate income and Dean's techniques, we are back in the game. We closed on a flip netting about $16K, and got two deals accepted this week, both REOs. The first one got accepted on Tuesday, which is a single family property. We plan to resell using owner financing strategy we have been using in this area with success. The second one accepted this morning! is a quadruplex sold for $20,000, and appraised for $69,000 during court house sheriff sale earlier this year in as-is condition. Similar quads in the area are bringing $300 / unit, with all separate utilities. We are looking forward to the cash flow and ROI. Real Estate is great!
Contract Assignment = $11,000 in 4 hours!!
September 29th, 2011 | posted by michaelmanghamThis one came from door knocking pre foreclosure leads that have equity. We could not find the owners phone number on this one so we mailed a post card. Got no response so we went to the property and door knocked. It was rented, we spoke to the tenant and she supplied the owners contact information. We left her a voice mail and mailed her a postcard. A few days later she called and said she just wanted to "quick sell the property". I got my title company together with her, got the payoff with all fees, attorneys fees every thing. I asked what she wanted and she said she would take $2,000 over the payoff amount.
Here are the numbers;
Under contract with seller $124,000
Assigned contract $135,000
My Fee $11,000!!
My buyers numbers are
Buy it $135,000
Remodel $15,000
