OfflineA few days ago I got a call from a kid I mentored about 4 months ago. I gave him 4 days of personal one on one intense training. This kid is 23 years old and lives in southern california. He makes $20,400 dollars a year at his job as a full time youth pastor. When he called me a few days ago he was excited because he had just flipped a house for a net profit of $36,500! That is almost double what it takes him a year to make at his job! And you guessed it, he didn't use a dime of his own money (because he didn't have a dime) to purchase, rehab, and sell this house. He did not do any of the rehab himself. The best part is this, when he called me a few months ago, I had never met him or talked to him before. He told me he wanted to buy 12 houses this year that had cashflow of $200 per month which would be more profit in a year that what he makes at his job. And then he asked this "Is that possible?" I told him "yes it is possible for me to do that because I have the knowledge." I told him "I don't know if it is possible for you to do it". So he offered me $10,000 to come out to my house and learn from me. We worked about 15 hours everyday and I literally taught him everything I could fit into that time frame. I was exhuasted and so was he. That was about 4 months ago. Now he has bought 10 houses since then that he owns and rents out for over $2500 per month in cashflow! He hasn't spent a dime of his own money to buy a single one of them! That is unreal. He is very thankful towards me and tells me all the time that I have changed his life forever. I feel really good about it. This last flip that he did was amazing. He is on a roll and he has a lot of momentum.
I actually have several stories like this of people I have mentored that are now running full speed at financial freedom and it feels great.
Don't make excuses. This kid could have said "I don't have any money or credit so I will never be able to do this". But he didn't. He just followed my instructions and went out and did it.
Get it done!
You've got to find your obstacles and call them out! Unsheath the sword, and do battle with whatever it is that holds you back!
What a great story! Gives me the incentive to just go out and DO IT!
I'll bet he's in 7th heaven right now and it's all thanks to YOU! Knowledge IS power (and profit) isn't it?
Thanks for sharing!

I am learning Dean's new book, get coaches helping me, ask questions and learn from this website, speeding up and putting in offers, but I still get stuck fighting to get financing to acquire the properties and refinance from HML. I am sure there are a lot of techniques just about these two pieces. Matt, can you please help and share with us some of the ideas besides what was in the book already? How can I do what that kid did? I definitely want to be like him!
Hi all! i am a "newbie" and am anxious to get started. However, I feel as if I need to know everything first. How DID he pull that off? I'm open to suggestions

I like hearing such great stories on success in here. It still gives me inspiration.

Great story Matt, and I like your parts in Deans book, excellent example of someone that can go from an over load bearing job to freedom in a short time, compared to having it take years to acheive.
And I'm sure the young guy will go out and teach someone else once he gets into it more and keep spreading the wealth.
Even though he paid you, that was a great thing you did and sets a good example for everyone else.

Although I think I have the gist of things, I really would love a mentor to walk me through a deal or two. I WILL PAY TOO!!! I'll make anyone a partner in my first few deals.
Any takers???
