My original mentor ended up being worse than a used car salesman. He agreed to split marketing costs with me and then bailed after I committed to it. Being a man of my word I stuck it out. I spent money I didn't have on a credit card I shouldn't have used. I partnered with a co worker and figured it was better to try and fail vs not try at all.
In my first month I got my first deal. Wholesale with a profit of $10,000.00
We have done 10 deals in the last year and own two rentals now as well.
I was a dead broke newlywed who had never done a Real Estate deal in my life. You came to the right place. Read the how to guides under the learn tab. Listen to the podcasts. Go check out those properties.
