Busy, Busy, Busy, day today.
Started out with a call to look at the house from yesterday. I wound up spending about 3 hours with my "bird dog" finally talking face to face and getting a lot of info by just mentioning a subject and letting him talk. It turned out that we had a lot in common which I'm sure will help solidify our working together. I even agreed to let him take the lion's share of the proceeds in exchange for him doing the lion's share of the work. He agreed.
Came back and sent an offer on another property which I was given by my PSL co-member. I'm waiting for the seller's response.

I know it's been a few days since I posted so I'll try to catch you all up.

Spent 12/15 & 12/16 busting hump and getting my order done. Spent little time on the 'puter but did manage to read a few posts and answered my mail and PMs.
The house we got under contract turned out to be a dud but in the interum, the buyer put in a bid on another house we offered. I guess there are no slam dunks until you get up from the closing table!
(Note to self: Slam dunks are for basketball not RE investing. Stop using that term!!!)

Well hump busting week continues only this time there have been some developments.

Got our first CO house under contract. Now just waiting for buyer's walk through and approval. In the meantime, got word today from an investor (who got my number from my bandit sign 2 months ago) and he told me about a house that fits my buyer's criteria. So today I looked like an octopus: Phone in 1 ear, Lures being tied with both hands, Laptop being used for "conference" calling. It looked funny to me but then again, I once saw my former boss on 3 phone calls at the same time. It was a riot to watch him juggle. Those were the good ole days.

Sorry for not posting
I had to take a couple of days off to get lure stuff done. It's another hump busting week, getting ready for a trip to Miami next Sat. Those darn bills keep coming and the RE money hasn't come in yet.

I'm doing my posting early because I have had a rough day and don't plan on being up late tonight. This is 12/8 part 2 because A) I got yesterday's date wrong and B) I didn't post it until after midnight so technically it was 12/8.
