That could work. I could still ask you questions about what to do, and then check on the fine details of California law.

I really hope to be living in Arizona by the end of the year. But even if I'm not I still have my goal of closing four deals by the end of the year. I am going to do my best to close at least one by the first weekend in December.

Thanks for all your help Nick. When I write my best selling life story I will be sure to credit you ,and all of BP, as finally pushing me over the edge. (In a good way of course) :D

As much as I hate to admit it, it is fear that is holding me back. I am on the verge of placing my first ad stating that I am looking to buy.

I'm wording it a little differently. I don't have the typical "I BUY HOUSES ALL CASH!!!!!." I am just stating that I am looking to buy in the Escondido area. I also make mention of the fact I don't have any assistants, I am the person you will be dealing with.

I hope the more "personal" ad will yield decent results, but we shall see.

Good work. It's nice to see that it's really not some pie in the sky dream like some people would have you believe.

I just wish I were closer to Phoenix so I could work with Nick as well.

Thank you for the information, Will. And everyone else. I've got a contract, but it needs some editing just to be sure it's legal in California.

My goal is to close four deals by the end of the year. That has been my goal all along, but I've been putting it off for so long. If I can get one closed I will be happy as long as I still have leads on more.

I just need to close this first deal ,even if it's just $2500 or so, so I can have some operating capital. Not only the extra operating funds, but I think it will knock down that huge wall that has me questioning every move. Here is to that first deal getting done. :cool:

If all the people out there can do it, there is no reason I can't. I just have to stop beating around the bush.

I am in need of a contract too. If any of you guys in California would be willing to share a contract with me it would be very much so appreciated.

I wish I knew why it is I've put stuff off for so long. But no longer. Only thing I need before advertising for deals is getting a contract. I spoke to an attorney, but that would of cost $100+. There has to be a cheaper route.

That is what I am planning on doing. I write down what needs repairing then I'll price the stuff. Call up some contractors and get estimates.

Thank you, Nick. That was very informative. I think I have finally gained the confidence to actually get out there and do something. Tomorrow I am going to try and get in contact with an attorney and get the contract I have reviewed.

Soon as I get a contract that will hold up I will start marketing that I am looking to buy. Like you told me before, I think it will be easier to find real deal buyers when I've actually got a home.
