The plumber has been super busy after the Texas deep freeze.

Purchase price: $100,000 Cash invested: $33,500 Sale price: $229,000 This was a lead I received from a Realtor that didn't know how to help the seller since it was deep in foreclosure, had squatters at one point, the sellers were divorced and one filed bankruptcy.

But first, I'd highly recommend doing a very deep dive into the BRRRR strategy and using private/hard money. 

This can be done but requires lots of patience and deep pockets!

If you want to take it to the streets, deep fake his head on porn Or put sugar in his gas tank.
