1st closing this Friday!!!

I started researching wholesaling in December, about the same time I joined BP. I have wanted to get into REI since I was 18 (im 26). I got laid off and felt it would be the opportune time to get into REI. I started marketing at the end of July/late February. I will be getting my 1st check this friday. I got a property under contract for $15k and I am assigning the property for $20500. I will gross $5500. I just want those out there who are thinking about getting into REI to know that if you put in the time and effort in this business, it will pay off. It wont happen overnight but with patience and persistence it will happen!!!! Thanks BP for all the information and motivation!!!

I closed on deal #2 yesterday. Walked away with $5750. So to all the newbies out there that are still wondering if they can do it, I am proof. Dont wait for the perfect deal, just get that 1st deal done. Seems like the 1st deal is definitely the hardest. Thanks for everything BP!!!
