Wouldn’t a few hundred dollars upfront be well spent if it meant having a plan that you knew was going to evoke a feeling of beautiful color-story to make your flip memorable in a good way for buyers that’s fresh and NOT 10yrs ago cookie-cutter, not this region or democratic or worst so plain it’s boring.

I am not happy sitting till the late hours writing SEO for my website.I am not happy telling a seller that needs money for their sick child's operation that I can only pay $70K for their house instead of $120K she should be getting.I am not friggin HAPPY to drive all over friggin damn CT looking at houses that may or may not lead to a damn deal.What drives me, is when I see people like Brandon doing podcasts from friggin Hawaii while I am freezing my monkey nuts off hustling so I can be able to be free, and live life on MY damn terms when I make it.I used to stare at a bag of crab legs in the super market.my mind says NO you greedy animal you can't afford it, while my belleh says  .. dude, that with butter.. are you kidding?

Sadly the owners were older and the wife was very sick and did not make it out.
