I know I'm not the most active person on these forums... I'm actually more active on DGIE and lately I haven't even had much time for that. I've honestly been busy building my business!

Anyway... tomorrow morning I'm going to be getting the assignment contract from the seller, signing it, passing it along to my buyer and closing my first REI deal since joining the Success Academy in like April 2011. I didn't do very well on the SA stuff, but being here on DG and especially on DGIE and networking the heck out of the MNREIA has payed huge dividends.

Fighting Spam on DG.com

As many regular visitors already know, this site has been a target of spammers from the unsophisticated individual creating an account to just promote their offerings to the elaborate network of computers designed to break through our spam prevention measures.

Fighting spam requires walking a fine a line between inconveniencing the "real" users of the community and keeping the spammers out. In the past we have tried to walk this line by adding new spam filters. These filters need trained over time to know what is good and what is bad and inevitably some "real" content gets flagged as spam. Despite letting people know of this possibility there wasn't a very good reception during the training period and we ended removing it and went back to relying on the old filters and having community flag spam themselves when they saw it.

Dean,

I asked the question today at the buying summit during the expert panel question session about locating a mentor in the San Diego area. I'm part of the success academy, done boots on the ground, and am part of IE. You mentioned you have someone in mind could you please get them in touch with me.

Thanks for all that you do!

HOW TO GE THE MONEY!!!

I am getting a lot of messages in my inbox about " How to get the money" to rehab houses and lots of them. So for those that messaged me and those that didn't, I thought I'd give my thoughts and experience on this topic.

This may turn in to a long post and my grammar will likely suffer as I don't have the time to look it over:).

Two firsts in one day!

1. I just did my first out of state assignment deal. It closed Tuesday and I made $2400 without ever setting eyes on the property (that's a first!). A guy I know went though it and took pictures for me. I found a motivated seller and negotiated a $67,000 asking price down to $27,300. My agent showed it to the list of investors I built through Craigslist ads and had a buyer after a few days. It just closed Tuesday and I got the check.

20 Flips in one year! Reached my Goal!

Hey guys, I wanted to let you know I reached my goal of 20 rehabs done this year! It was my goal that was set last November and I had to have my 20th house closed by October 31.

All together right now I have a total of twelve deals between those that are sold and set to close, those being worked on and those set to close for purchase.

To all the newbies... It was only 2 years ago when I had no clue what to do or how to do it. I heard a saying a while back that "you can dramatically change your life in 4 years, when a goal and plan is put into action". I completely agree with it. I'm 34 years old and as of next spring I will have my $200k house paid off and be bringing in an average of 30k/ month.
