Being a business owner and owning property has been a dream of mine since I was a little girl. I purchased Dean's course in May of this year - just days after being laid off from a dead end job. I was going nowhere fast-felt like a caged bird-but I've been loosed to freedom, Financial Freedom that is. I have always worked with people and have held various sales jobs for over ten years now- almost everything under the sun-Direct Sales (Mary Kay & Saladmaster), Adult Club, Counter Sales Rep for Hertz Car Rental and Budget Car Rental, Fast Food, Relief Agent (Temp) for Centox Homes (loved it!), Legal Secreatary for two Real Estate & Family Attorneys (Temp), and travel- 3 years as a Travel Agent for Liberty Travel. I even have my own travel website now-cashing in on the 7 trillion dollar travel industry right?-but my comission checks are small and they don't come until my clients have completed travel which could mean waiting months to a year or longer depending on when they booked. So this is just another source of income but won't make me the kind of money I need and want.
Now I have a new direction in my life. I am a young single woman, determined to make a fortune in real estate. I don't expect to become a millionaire overnight and it will take hard work which I am not a stranger to. The benefit I do see is homeownership, a steady and reliable source of income (positive cash flow), a chance to improve and perfect my credit, and a best of all- coming away from a deal with more money than I make in a year and/or could save in five. I found my dream home in Las Vegas one year ago-the cost is about 900,000 and in two to three years, maybe less, it will no longer be a dream but a reality.
