First Deal After 3 yrs of going at it.

First Deal After 3 yrs of going at it.

I live in New York City, Bronx County and after 2 and a half years and a number of failed attemps to get a deal together I finally closed on my first deal.I received a Bird Dog fee of $6,500.00. Out of that I get half because I have a partner. I'm going to invest the proceeds back into the business and finally start a LLC and buy some more bandit signs, and bumper sticker signs to bring in more leads and make more money.

Congratulations!

This site's history is chock FULL of people who never read even 1 of Dean's books, posted 3 questions on here asking people to do the work FOR THEM, got no responses, and gave up after 3 weeks, swearing up and down that "this stuff doesn't work!"

You're exactly the opposite, and now look at you! The momentum should help move things along now at a MUCH faster rate. You probably won't have to wait another 2 and 1/2 years for deal #2, it should be here much faster than that! Keep it up and keep us updated! Best of luck to you! Laughing out loud

Detail of the deal.

I was paid 6,500 from one of our Broker/Investor buyer. He did the shortsale and after closing he gave us a check for 6,500. It took about 7 months and it was all done with word of month "verbal contract". He coordinated everything and he even found the end-buyer.

We got this lead from one of our Bandit Signs and we met up with the home owner. We told her we would buy however one of our Broker would have to conduct the short sale. We only told her we would buy so that she would work with us. We bought her in to the office and she coorporated and after closing we received a check for 6,500. Thats why I call this a 6,500 Bird Dog fee.


Congrats! I'm glad you stuck

Congrats! I'm glad you stuck with it. I havent made my first deal yet, but your example is inspiring. If you stick with it, it will happen!

Congratulations! Onto the next one!
