@Jamie McCauley Just had the chance to check out two of your videos. You and your wife should expect to hear from HGTV very soon, you both have a future in not just real estate, but film! Great job.

Thanks Will! I appreciate it! haha It has been a fun creative outlet for me

@Jamie McCauley that’s great!!! Plus you were able to save big time on handling the labor cost on your own.

Thanks Raymond! Definitely saved money, but I'm looking to build a team down the road so I don't have to do as much of the gruntwork. I think I would get burnt out on it fast!

Excellent! Not a bad profit. Even if it shook out to 8 dollars an hour (which i doubt) you got paid 8 bucks an hour to learn about the future of your business. That's smart.

Thanks Nick! It was definitely a learning experience!

Great job! Did you have experience in some of those trades prior to getting into real estate business?

Doing all the work yourself is exhausting, should be proud of yourself. 3.5 months aint all that bad for your first one!

Hi Brian! Thanks! I have done bathrooms and kitchens in our own homes before and also rental properties, so I had some practice. It was exhausting, I was glad when I crossed the finish line!

@Jamie McCauley I haven't even messed with FB yet. I only use google. FB is almost like DMM, where as you set certain parameters (zip codes,age.....) and those are the people that will see your ads.

Google only shows your ad to people who show intent. By that I mean someone types in "who buys houses in ...." and then they see your ad saying "I buy houses in....!"

I will never mess with advertising in which the user hasn't shown intent first ever again.

Thanks so much for the advice! I will definitely look into this! I am familiar with adwords as it is how I first found success in my main business(wedding photography).
