Our first deal went south and its a big win in my book

[Corey Reyment]

Hi all! I just wanted to updated the BP community on our first deal. We had an accepted offer on a duplex but after the inspection and some negotiating gone bad on the seller's part, we decided to part ways. It would have rented well but it wasnt in the greatest part of town and need some TLC. Although the cash flow was tempting, I am proud of my wife and I for walking away. I think it is easy to get emotionally attached and excited about getting our first deal. To be able to know we are walking away and looking for something that fits our mold better is empowering and tells me that we are on the right track. Who else can relate?

@Corey Reyment good stuff.  emotions and can be a killer in this business.  some of the best deals I have done are the ones I have NOT done.

Having said that make sure you put this person into your follow files.  about 35% of all my current deals now are the ones my office talked to weeks, months, sometimes even years ago.

we connect with everyone we have talked to in the past every 60-90 days.

Remember, time is the number one motivator.
