Life is about Creating yourself!

t’s Time! For what you ask? For me to complete my first deal and get off the sidelines, stop being on the outside looking in and get to the inside so I can look out. I am going through Dean’s “30 days to Cash” book setting up my marketing and get my leads coming in. I am really excited, I use to be scared to try the no money down strategies in a small town but as I read a lot of post there are some investors doing really well in a small town even smaller than mine and making money. So I have no excuses, I am starting my journal to keep myself accountable for my actions. Here I go…

Day one 4/15/2013
-Legal Entity setup
-Made a list of why I am choosing real estate to change my life.
-Wrote out my goals
-Business voicemail setup

-Located 3 vacant properties in my neighbor
1st one
-Grass is grown up
-Looks like someone trashed the place before leaving
-Use to be a rental
-Vacant over a year
-The owner lives in another house in the same neighborhood

2nd House
-Rental just moved out (possibly earlier than expected)
-For Rent and For Sale sign in the window.

3rd House
-Tax notice on the door due by April 30th
-Search public records taxes not paid for 2011, 2012, and 2013
-NC is a tax deed state so I can’t just pay the back taxes and get the house, looking to locate the owner to work something out with them.

On April 16th I plan to start some marketing with flyers, craigslist, and business cards and following up on the three properties above. I would like the deals above to create positive cash flow for me, so I was considering the strategy lease option to purchase. Advice will be greatly appreciated.

Happy Investing!
