Hey Guys,
Hope everyone is doing well, so lets get straight to the point as all of you I have been working hard to crack the code and find a good niche. After joining Real Estate two years ago knowing this is not a fastlane business, I got in it to have more time in my hands and research. I did a few sales my first year, but after that first year I found out that Real Estate is not as pleasant as people make it seem. You work really hard for a $5,000 check and the stress oh it is huge ! Anyways my goal was to be around real estate investors who came from nothing, I networked with a few investors and came across two brothers who really came from nothing and are now multimillionaires. I started paying attention of what they would do, they would wholesale, and flip properties. I asked them a few questions here and there but they never told me exactly what they would do. I did the rest on my own and researched on how to wholesale properties, I did tremendous research, I listened and still do to podcasts, and kept networking with people from biggerpockets. While I was doing research I was executing, I was sending out letters to property owners hoping they would be interested in selling. After many tries I started seeing some process, I didnt acquire any real estate deals but I started learned how to talk to these sellers, and what was a good and bad deal.
After many of those tries I was able to acquire a great real estate piece, a triplex for only $25,000 ! Yes it was livable with tenants. I got it appraised 3 months later at $115,000 I already have equity when I bought it !
After that I kept working hard looking for home owners in trouble looking to sell due to them about to loose their house. I landed a few more deals !
This has not been easy at all, I would stay up until 3am getting letters ready to send out the next day. Thanks to this I am now a landlord, I was able to pay a townhouse where I work from and call "office" cash ! and triplex.
I got into flipping homes as well, purchased a home from an unemployed lady that was about to loose it for a price of $40,000 and flipped it for $122,000 !
The road has not been easy, but I am glad I stuck to it and this is just the beginning. I have been in real estate only 2 years ! Give me a couple more years and I will be a real estate millionaire !
Just wanted to get my story out there to you guys, I am looking to opening a commercial cleaning business soon. I am doing some research on it at the moment.
Attached to this thread are a few checks of flips that I have closed
