The best wholesaling day of my life... I had to share!

Way to go!

Thanks for sharing and continuing to inspire us!

Karen

Once again you've proved that you NEVER know where your next deal may come from.

Thanks for sharing and the mentoring.

Awesome Carol! Thanks for sharing.
I agree, never stop marketing, even if your on a small budget, do whatever you can & keep doing it.

Carol, that is an awesome deal. I have my first possible wholesale deal in the works right now, however, I'm afraid to talk about it until it goes through... I don't want to jinx it. Once it closes I'll post details here. Thanks again for sharing, you're truly an inspiration.

Brian that is awesome! Keep us posted for sure.

I forgot to mention that the seller is in FL right now looking at some properties I have there that belong to a Hedge Fund I deal with. If he buys one I get a $1500 referral fee from the Hedge Fund. It would be awesome if I could make it 4 deals instead of 3...

I Agree its a matter of timing, But the biggest item you hit on is , just being out there doing it, looking at houses, letting folks know what you are doing, the deals will start finding you. I use bandit signs, yellow letters to expired listings, word of mouth the best, and I want some magnet signs on my wish list for X-mas, After the first of the year, I will be working with a realtor to help me find more deals,and I have a partner coming joining me with money investors in his pocket, the coming year is going to be great, and oh yeah call every FSBO you see. Action+Knowledge=Success..$$$$$$$$$$$$.....

Yes you keep FINDING deals on your lap cause you keep marketing and showing EVERYONE your serious and you eat breathe and sleep rei . IT is possible because youMAKE it possible for as many people as u can ...SEE YOU MEAN BUSINESS!!!! great job on this deal and hope you make it 4.....SWEEEEET!!!

That's great, shows you can still make it when certain avenues of marketing are unavailable.
Do you have any friends/family that would put your magnets on their vehicles for a referral fee?
Know anybody that deliver pizzas?

You are sooo right it is all about being out there doing it. Once you put action to your knowledge the world it at your feet.

As I said there are not many wholesale deals available right now in NJ so I was out trying to create some. I have an awesome Agent and I go out EVERY Saturday looking at properties on the MLS that I feel would be great wholesale deals. This particular Saturday I just happened to be looking at one of those properties when I fell into 3 others.

It's all about ACTION! Doing it in spite of fear, circumstances or self. The only thing you must not lack when going out there is knowledge. Keep learning, NEVER STOP. The only reason I was able to turn these properties into deals is because I knew how to. I learned and I took action. I continue to learn from Dean all the time. I watch EVERY blog, read EVERY book he puts out there and I am all over any new material he releases.

I just wanted to motivate and inspire my DG family with this. Helping others is the stepping stone to true success.

You Said you work with a Hedge Fund..Is there away we can talk to see If we can work together here in Florida..Im Needed some good deals..Plus Im Looking for my first Flip..Can you send me a PM with a contact so we can Talk

I am curious. What number did you put on your sign? Was it a regular phone number cell or landline or was it a toll free number? Good for you and keep breathing. We need you around with us and appreciate your sharing. Its so exciting.

Nicely done Carol!! Amazing how things happen; by the way did the original property you went to look at come together for you?

Quick question off topic about winterized homes. When I called the number on the front door of a house, I was told they cannot give out the Bank ownership info. What can be done? House in question was winterized over a year ago and does not show up on foreclosure listings. Now I going to get magnetic signs for my car because I have the same problems with bandit signs in my area.

You are a perfect example of someone who never gives up. Its just the saddest thing to see someone right on the edge of achieving their goal(s)to then give up.
Keep on inspiring us!

The property that I originally went to look at was a total disaster! However I put in an offer and I am waiting for the seller to accept. He keeps countering but still way to high.

Great! It pays to get out AND get active! I wish you the best on future deals.
What is the arv of your deals?

Hi Carol,

You've proved it time and time again that you have to be in the game in order to play with the bid dogs.....

Congrats!

He sure was ready to up and move to Florida in a hurry. Being in the right place at the right time really pays off. Congrats Carol.

Sandra

Hey Carol, super deal on those 3, possibly 4, and if you count the one you still have the bid out on, 5! Where in NJ are you? Anywhere near Atlantic Highlands? Its in Monmouth County. We are headed up there next week for my aunts 100th birthday, if your close by and have time, maybe Michelle and I can meet you for coffee or lunch?

That is so cool Carol. A little marketing can go a long way. A positive attitude doesn't hurt either. Keep up the great work.
Success to All!

Thanks for sharing that information Carol. You are an inspiration to us newbies.

I've seen others use car magnet signs like that in other online videos, but didn't know how well they work. Thanks for your inspiration & your advice to us all ~ it's greatly appreciated.

I too have had this happend to me, trying to open the door after it gets closed in my attempts is frustraiting! Is there some other way to reach the bank?

ALSO,

Yellow letters returned to sender (ME) with the word VAC (Vacant) on it is equally as frustraiting is it worth pursuing? or just walk away?

I got the adddress on our Central appraisal district tax website, I also looked up the owners name and came up with not sure which, the husband or wife, is deceased I think that maybe it's both?? So what would be the next step to try to get ahold of a family member? Looks like they originated from a different city and were here on a military transfer.

Carol, you are an inspiration to Moms like me at home trying to make ends meat!! I realize your time is precious and you are not always able to be on the website for very long, but I value your posts more than anything! Or perhaps anyone else that has more experience than me can answer and offer their advice on these two topics!

Thanks DG family!
