OfflineHello DG family. This is my first time posting my journal. My name is Don and my wife of 20yrs is Dia, We have been looking at becoming Real Estate investors for 10yrs, and only became active in the business 5yrs ago. At that time the market was heading for its fall. We did manage to land four birddog deal until the investors and mortgage broker, up and bailed out leaving us to fall flat on our faces. That was in 2007 when we became homeless, but we didn't jump ship, in some way the good Lord kept us involved in Real Estate by going to work as a handy man at the motel we stayed at, then found a job as a general labor for some Real estate investors, then found a home to rent out through the investors for an elderly lady. She was moving in to her second home and both of them needed alot of work. So we did the work in exchange for rent,(which we had a contract for), that was in 2008-2009. During that time I rented Dean's book from the library and got down to business reinventing myself. I also set here on the computer study what everyone had to say, posting ads and making phone calls, watching videos and bouncing ideal off my wife. We now have a list of buyers and are close to landing our first deal in four years. So this thanks goes out to our Lord and to the DG family and my loving wife who has been more than patient with me.

Great time to get back into rei, your story is amazing as I myself faced homelessness. Your tenactiy and desire to keep working in re and working hard to get out of that position is admirable. With those traits you definetly will go far in any business you decide to do and god will continue to bless you. I am actually a newbie I've only been at rei for a month but I am so driven, motivated, and unstoppable with the tools I have learned from dean and the success academy I would love to do deals with you guys. I love in Northern New Jersey where normally houses are EXPENSIVE between 300-666,000 and the area I am in has over 4,000 forclosures, 2000-3000 properties under 60,000 and I'm talking homes that are 3 family houses so cass flow would be crazy. If your interested in maybe partnering send me a pm. Again god bless on your rei endevours and I look forward to
hearing about your success.
Thanks,
Gorgeous Frazier

Well yesterday was one of those days that nothing was going right. So I took the day off to take care of some personal business. Today I got back to work typing up contracts, answering mail talking on the phone trying to make sure to keep up on my journal. So I will keep it short, Its been a long day sending out the contract in response to my ads and answering all my PM's from my DG family, Just wanted to say thank for all the support and hopefully the new partners. well thats all for now. I still have to cook dinner for my honey when she gets into to house. Have a great day and God Bless.
