Hello Team!

Hello all,

I hope all is well with everyone. I have to say this week I needed some motivation.I have been ill lately and everywhere I turn I'm running into what Dean calls, "Dream Stealer's". I'm still in the first faze of setting up a business entity and while I'm learning what thats all about I have been trying to gather my resources. I know Dean said that an important part of being successful is in believing in yourself. Well, I've decided to focus on a small piece of my successful future in real estate by knowing what a team is comprised of. I have talked to several people but the team is yet to be complete. I've run across a great book if anyone is interested; it's called , "The Secret". It's made me believe in myself again. If anyone has anything they want to talk about please don't hold back.

I would look into companies like AGGIE. This is an association that helps you run credit checks,background checks and much much more for a small fee that you can deduct from your taxes at the end of the year. I work as a property manager and I run verifications all the time and the one thing you have to realize is no matter how many verification you do the person you put in your house will never treat it as good as you would. Even the best person will have a time in their life when there character waivers. A good rule of thumb is to run as many verifications as possible but meet w/ the person and see what their like. Make them feel comfortable around you and then they will show you more of who they really are. You have to mirror the person s personality to a certain extent to make them feel at ease. Never let them know in the beginning that you are the owner of the house because they will always try to be on their best behavior. Don't forget to GET the that inspection BEFORE you buy it will be the best thing you do to save yourself from a money pit.

Good Luck

Hello

How do you join this group an I finished deans book an I'm overwhelmed.I seen this group as you call it as a way to join with others that want the same thing out of life as I do.

Hello

The book is overwhelming at first but it gets easier as time goes by and when your surrounded by people who want & talk about the same things. That's the purpose I believe in getting involved w/ groups of the same interest. You get to network w/ people that might just be able to help you along your way.

If you just got laid off don't go spending money like you used to. Create a budget and stick to it. Cut back on extravagances and start pulling your resources. Read the book and highlight everything that you think you can do without exceeding your financial means of living right now. Get a copy of your credit report and make a to do list of things you might be able to take care of or dispute. Start taking an inventory of the for sale and for rent houses in your neighborhood and call to ask what the sale prices are. Then try to get an assignment deal to earn some extra cash. When looking for work always remember to find something that serves multiple purposes. Example a job that makes you money and gives you a discount or service you and your family benefit from.

Good Luck,

Monique

Hi, Monique!

I just found this site today and am pretty excited about it. (I also ordered Dean's latest book) ... but I wanted to know how things are going for you since starting this particular group.

I noticed that it hasn't quite progressed the way you had initially set out for it to, but I still love the idea - and was just wondering if you were involved in real estate prior to Dean (if so, how long) and how you've been doing.

Thanks again for this group and I look forward to learning a lot here.

Need a mentor in Georgia.

I am new to real estate investing and need a mentor preferably in Atlanta, Ga. Will someone please help.

I am in the same boat as you are only in Maryland

I have read Deans Books and maybe we can collaborate on some ideas and by doing our home work and setting some goals we can work through this together, if you are willing to partner up with ideas and strategies etc.

Need a Mentor in NYC

sugab28's picture

Hi Fellow Investors,

My name is Takeya and I'm located in NYC. I'm in need of a mentor and would like to master lease option (with assignments). I've read both of Dean's books and have grasped the concept of a few strategies but I'm enjoying the lease option concept the most.

I'm in the heart of the city so I think I could do well, but I've recently learned that there are no pre/foreclosures in my borough.
Thanks

Lived with them all of my life. I didn't have to go any where to meet them. They were in my home. You have to learn to build an invisable wall around yourself. Protect you because there is only one. Become the most important thing in your life. Start by setting goals for yourself and don't let people know your hopes and dreams. But it is important to write them down because we are very tangible people. Seeing is sometimes believing for some. You have stumbled on a chance of a life time. Continued success......Lubertha

Any mentors in San Jose,Ca?

Hey everyone-
I am in San Jose,Ca. and am going to start hopefully soon with assigning mortgages since I have terrible credit. I don't want to wait until my credit is perfect so I think this is the best place to start for me. Work is real slow so I don't have the money to start but I am sure there is a way around that. I hope to make enough money to take care of the credit problem and then get into it hot and heavy but I would like to learn from someone that's already successful in investing. I am an electrician and can fix just about anything on your properties in trade. I am not looking for a handout, just a helping hand. If you are game, send me a message.

Mentor in VA. or NC.

Looking for someone to partner with as a mentor in VA. OR NC. I am also starting with the assigning contracts. Looking for someone who has experience in using Dean's methods.
Thanks,
dlnew

If you believe you will achieve
