Its time to start practicing what I preach. I have had goals, but never clearly defined with definitive time tables. I will fix that today.
Clearly Defined Goals to be read 2x per day.
Goal:
I will be self employed in 18 months time on April 1st 2011.
Why:
-Devote my time to my fiancé, my dog, and my future family
-To dictate my time
-Pursue financial freedom
-Prove myself to myself
-Continue my streak of completing 100% of what I truly set my mind to.
How:
-I will accumulate $50,000 in liquid savings (bank accounts, pm’s, and cash)
*Money will be obtained through the purchase and sale of single family residence, duplex, and smaller multiplex buildings in the Arapahoe county area of Colorado.
*Extensive use of probate, and reo real estate will be used.
* Properties will be bought and wholesaled or bought and rehabbed for sale at near FMV
-I will have $1500/mo passive income.
* I will use SFR and smaller multiplexes to obtain the desired positive cashflow.
* In order to obtain $1500/mo in such a short time, I will have 5 units cashflowing for a positive cashflow of $300 per unit.
* Assumptions:
-With an average market rent of $1100 for a 3/2
-$40,000 mortgage avg per unit
- $400/yr insurance
-$800/yr taxes
-$2500/yr maintenance
-8% Property management fee. Or 1056/yr
- 8% vacancy or 1 month per year
- I will have $10,000 invested per unit.
*I will be investigated Mobile home deals and incorporating if the numbers work.
- To obtain the $100,000 cash needed (50k rentals, 50k reserves) I will do 10 deals average averaging 15k per deal. Taxes must be accounted for as the rehabs and wholesale deals will be considered income.
- I use my own home as a rental and find a new home.
- I will also be saving 15% of my take home pay and utilize past savings as I reach these goals.
- I will be flexible and open minded, but stick to my plan.
-I will only make changes to my plan after careful consideration to be in the best interest for achieving my goals.
- I will read these goals and action steps 2x per day.
- I will utilize my mastermind group for ideas and support
-I will share my progress the outside world via my blog, and the fastlane as a tool to keep myself on track.
-I will look to inspire others, therefore inspiring myself.
- I will remember service the needs of others which will in turn service my needs.
