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!!

It was suggested by DG family that I should invest in Google Voice and a business email. The google voice is understandable and I will do this, but there were so many business email ads on line I just don't know which ones are valuable and does the job as it should be done. Can someone help me in choosing the right business email. I have heard that Hotmail and Yahoo are not the best to choose from.
I am setting up. I don't want my personal numbers on bandit signs. I have also looked into business cards and this makes sense to have when I go to a real estate clubs to find investors. If I am going about it wrong, please let me know.
Thanks!
