So I went on a mission to learn everything I could about wealth creation, and how rich people play the game.There's no better feeling than doing what you love and enjoying life while the money is working really hard for me whether I work or not - That's the real magic!

Don't overpay due to the excitement of competition none of the houses should be "must haves"Keep in mind you mission is to acquire a bargain.

After listening to a few episodes and hearing the mission of BiggerPockets, I realized this was exactly what I was looking for.I have basically NO real estate background, but I have been interested in learning about it for some time.

"I want to make money in real estate" is not a 'why' - that is a what or a how.It took me over a month to come up with my why, and I ended up coming up with something that in the end became more of my life's 'mission statement' if you will:My Why - To focus the efforts of my life toward things specific to the service of those I care for, the acquiring of wisdom and knowledge for myself, or to gain understanding into the mysteries of the nuances of life.That is me to a T.

UPDATE: So I went by the house again today, this time on a solo mission to retrieve the correct address.

If you would like to get together for a cup of coffee and discuss REI I am in Mission Viejo and can meet you at a Starbucks.

They currently pay $1100 and my monthly payments are $1147, mission accomplished.

I would start by filing a police report and getting in touch with a lawyer.Then, I would make it my mission to ensure the contractor never finds work again.Rick

BTW, here's some other things that you do not need in order to wholesale. a website a company name a logo a "team" a Realtora business plana mission statement branding etc

If you have a plan and a "stand up" attitude for getting that building into compliance and providing housing (which is a key element of the building department's mission), then you become an ally of the building department.
