My First Deal=$25,000!!!!

Helloooo!! Id like to start off by saying I DID IT!!! and so can you!!

I am a single mother of four boys. I had been going through some unimaginable hard times. Honestly 7 months ago I went to my first food bank because even with government assistance I could not feed my children...I honestly was sick to death... having three degrees and no drive to do better for me and my children...I was stuck...

until somehow i began to watch you tube videos over and over ,day in and day out...I did this for for 6 months...Thats all i did. until finally I said I can only watch so much ...I have to do it...I put $17 in my gas tank(all I had, I did this instead of eat three times a week) and drove to a meet up in Charlotte. I was introduced to a "system" but not long into toying with the idea of working with it I realized we practiced different ethics and we will leave it at that. 

but...out of that came a great mentor..he thought I knew more than I did...maybe I knew more than I realized..  He threw my first deal at me and said" hey lets see what you can do" I knew nothing about negotiating ,talking to sellers or buyers..but..as intimidated as I was ..I knew this is what I was needing.

THE DEAL:

7 houses from a tired landlord. 6 on the same st one on another st... $50 k!!!(he was asking 90k).immediately I thought"hum....none the wiser if I get the seller the agreed upon amount and keep the house on the other street for myself"well...my mentor wasnt on the same track as I and wanted to sell all for a quick 9k profit to be split three ways, him self, the one who marketed for the deal and me...so against my better judgement, after I had advertised the deal everywhere you could think of..I posted it in the I wanna...weeks went buy...i was stressing...so when I got the phone call from an interested buyer I opened my big mouth and threw in the other house when the buyer was ready to get the deal with just the 6...but...dont cry over split milk...although I was new at this..I wasnt new new like my partner likes to describe me. I knew my stuff, comps repairs arv...so I would not allow a 9k profit...instead I flipped them for 75k!!!!!!!!the buyer was happy, the seller was happy and we all made over 8k!(a total of 25k)

Remember I said this was my first deal...

well..it took three weeks to close because of a clouded title..2 actually. infact we had to hunt them down(one lived in Texas)overnight papers and line up a notary to go to the mans house personally. I was not easy!!!! But taught me a lot and made us $25,000!!! needless to say I am hooked!!! I feel like a new person and after closing on a few more I have just moved me and my family to the beach!!! I started in January..In 6 months I have been able , thanks to God, CHANGE OUR LIVES
