OfflineI haven't been posting as much as I have wanted to lately, but I have been insanely busy out there in the trenches of my real estate market. I have met some new partners and we are totally taking the Philadelphia area by storm!
I had my biggest month ever in wholesaling recently and I wanted to share it with all the DG members to show them what is possible. My story is on deansmedia.com (dean's testimonial website) so you can check it out to see where I came from and how hard it was for me to get to where I am now. I am very sick with Ulcerative Colitis and Crohn's Disease, but I did not let that stop me from my accomplishing my goals and dreams.
I now have a goal to gross $500,000 in total profits by the end of this year!!
On another note, I cashed my first check on Sept 15, 2010 when I closed my first deal. I just added up all of my wholesale profits since then and so far my company has been able to gross $117,770.13 in my first year of real estate investing and wholesaling! I have more deals in the works that may even close before Sept 15, 2011 so hopefully that number goes even higher!! =D
You can check out proof and copies of checks at my blog site listed below. I really hope this gives everyone more hope and inspires you to go out there and take action TOMORROW! The most important thing I learned is that no one is going to do this for you. In Fact, people are going to doubt you all along the way! Dig Deep and remember why you are doing this and you will make it happen! Do whatever it takes! Make 10 offers a day, knock on 10 doors a day, hand out 10 business cards a day, send out 10 letters a day, etc!!!
To your success!!

If it's to be, it's up to me! Believe in YOURSELF!
I joined Dean's Success Academy 3 years ago and am now just able to start my journey because of my priorities of taking care of my parents. Mom has passed, my best buddy, and Dad is 94. I have formed an incredible team and nothing is going to stop me now! I already have interested investors and can't wait to make my first deal! I have been in construction with my husband, built new homes, remodeled homes and sold property in the "up" market. I have hardly slept because of my excitment of getting this new business professionally organized and working with some amazing people. My goal is to help make as many people as I touch have freedom and peace in their lives. I'm a natural teacher and salesperson so watch my passion be infectious. Your efforts, Dean on all our behalf is GREATLY APPRECIATED!
