I almost gave up!!!!

I can’t believe i almost threw in the towel, i worked so hard, thousands of letter, and 100s of bandit signs, driving for dollars, door hangers, flyers, website etc.

And i almost walk away, i was tired of talking to seller after seller, no deal, to possible deal, to deals at the closing table...and then BOOM!!! It falls apart....

I was so frustrated and mad at the world, i spent so much money marketing...i had gave up, i might have even been depressed and all of a sudden low and behold i found BIGGERPOCKETS.COM

I found 100s of people just like me. It was refreshing...LOL..

I got soooooo much advice and pointers, i went back and started over and rehabbed all my marketing campaigns from top to bottom, and I did a complete renovation of my business models. And a year and a half later…

28 wholesale deals

2 fix and flips

2 buy and hold rentals

Don’t give up, keep pushing and pushing till there’s nothing left, then refuel again and keep going. If this is your passion don’t let anyone discourage you on here or in the real world. Go for it, live it, breathe it, enjoy it…

Happy Investing to all …
