Hey everyone ! I would like to talk about looking for the ugly house in your area! What I seem to be finding a lot is there is a lot of ugly houses in this economy but the problem seems to be that they are upside down, so do you numbers religiously!

Anyway I would like to touch on something that Dean said that I do everyday and I have found 4 deals with this method so far. It is so simple, what you want to do is everyday when you leave work go home a different direction,even take the long way some days.

You will be surprised with what you find there is a lot of money on the table folks.

Happy Hunting

I am currently in Las Vegas Nevada for the "Gain The Edge Buying Summit" . I am enjoying all the knowledge and courtesy of the incredible team of professionals that Dean and his staff have assembled....not to mention the staff, the food, the grandeur of the Luxor Hotel and casino.
As if this whole experience wasn't surreal enough imagine how exciting it was when "The Man" himself came jogging down to the stage and I got a hive five from Dean Graziosi. It gets better, about a half hour into Dean's address he was touching on the subject of each person's "real" reasons for wanting to be a successful real estate investor and why doing the 7 Levels Deep exercise will help you to understand the core reason for your desire to be financially independent. It is way more than just money!

I received a call from a guy looking to sell his house.
The details- house is worth about 160k
mortgage is 150k
payments are 1372/month-4 months behind
could be rented for 1500/month
he is open to a lease option.
There is not enough cash flow to stay in the middle of this as a sandwich lease. Also, the option fee would have to be large enough to bring the mortgage to date and leave a profit for me-say at least 5k, so an option fee of more than 10k would be needed. Is there another angle that i am missing or should I just pass on this? Any thoughts DG family?

I wish the groups that Dean contracts with, such as Insiders Financial, would incorporate contractual agreements to fund advanced training events such as Boots On The Ground and IE events through the deals they say they can facilitate for me.

I suppose I'm thinking "Put your money where your mouth is."

I have a great deal at @$50k ARV $120k rehab $15-$30k
should I try hard money, own cash or what?

OK. I read the 30 Days to Real Estate Cash book, from the Table of Contents to page 47 about 3 times. So far, so good. I have to keep telling myself not be scared. If I don't try my best, then I'll never know.

The other day I read this:

THREE SIMPLE RULES
Number ONE: If you do not go after what you want, you'll never have it.
Number TWO: If you do not ask, the answer will always be NO.
Number THREE: If you do not step forward, you'll always be in the same place

How true! The are the rules I live by right now as I go forward in this program.

So, here's what I've done so far:
1) I listened and watched all the suggested videos.
2) I created an email address with a business name, so I look professional. The signature has all of my prominent info.
