Hi DG Family!

I've been a part of this wonderful DG family for a long time and have met some of the most awesome people. Back then there were only a few of us, now it's grown by leaps and bounds because of Dean and his amazing team. He's the real deal, and the nicest guy in person too! Smiling

I'm a musician first, investor second and mom of three lovely daughters ALL the time... And now I'm a proud Granny of six beautiful grandchildren. Wow!

I've been investing since 2004 and made some SUWEEET cashola in the process! Although I've had a few life changing set backs I'm overcoming and slowly forging ahead one day at a time.

I've read the secret (book is better than the movie), several other law of attraction books as well as Think and Grow Rich and other similar books and I have come to agree that whatever you focus on the most is what you attract to you.

I've spent thousands of dollars on Real Estate Investing courses, books, mentorships, coaching, boot camps and training seminars, including Dean's book (which I read in two days). I have all four of Dean's books and his Think a Little Different (TALD) course in my library now. Everything Dean puts out is top notch quality and full of great content.

I just moved to Virginia with my beautiful daughter and her amazing Military husband. They're expecting their 3rd son and I'm on my next new adventure with them. Let's see where life will take us next!

Thank you for taking the time to read my profile and I wish you ALL great success!

Close your eyes and just imagine how amazing you'll feel when you get your first big fat check at closing! Knowing that YOU did it, despite the fact that everyone told you it was impossible... It feels AMAZING... Believe it and YOU WILL achieve it!

to everyone who's tried to contact me the past few weeks. I am mourning the tragically unexpected loss of my second grandson and have not been able to return anyone's call or email. I will be in touch as soon as things settle. Thank you all for your cooperation through this difficult ordeal.

God bless you,
Elena

Loss of grandson

Elena,

I am so saddened to hear of the passing of your second grandchild. I know that the loss of a small child or new born is devastating to everyone in the family.

I also believe that grandparents have a special connection to their grand-
children. Grandchildren are a part of you, they are an extension of you. Which is why you may be feeling such pain.

I see that ministry is part of your "hobbies" so you have the faith inside to help you and your daughter through this tragic time in your lives.

I pray for your family's healing and hope for a brighter tomorrow and more grandchildren to play in your backyard.

Blessings,

Rose Nodal

I am so sorry about the tragic loss of your grandson. I hope this ebrochure (When Someone You Love Dies) can help you and your daughter to find more hope and comfort from the scriptures. If you'd like one or more copies of the printed version, just let me know. I'll send them to you at my own expense.

Most sincerely,
SuperBee

P.S. This book is also helpful:

Visited your myspace page. You have your real pics there and am glad I can finally place a face to the name. I have two pages my family page Islandaffiliate, and my general page, hawaiicomputer. Am always pleased to meet other musicians on this forum as we are creative and expressive, as well as pretty much outgoing. Very pleased to make your acquaintance here and there.

You're most welcome, Elena

I DON'T WANT TO LOOSE THESE HUNGRY BUYERS

Mr. Godfrey's picture

Hay Elena, how are U.
Elena, we spoke about a year ago or so.
Elena I'm doing the lease opt strategy and I have a good amount of buyers on my rent to own buyer's list, but I have now homes yet.
I have bandit signs and online ads but nothing is coming in.
I have been calling fsbo, for rent and for sale ads.

Can you tell me what I'm missing and how to take it to the next level?

I DON'T WANT TO LOOSE THESE HUNGRY BUYERS!

Thanks so much for your help.
Ian.

I hope things have picked up since we last spoke on FB. In order to be successful in RE you have to keep a funnel of marketing methods continuously bringing you leads. Try different methods consistently to keep bringing those leads in or your business will die quickly. The best investors are also good marketers or have good marketers on their team. Eye-wink

Best of luck, keep in touch!

Hi Elena.. My name is Eric & I love your post on wholesaling... There is TONS of GREAT info.. Elena I had a quick question about wholesaling (which I am hoping to get into after reading Deans book "30 Days to Real Estate Cash").. I was wondering what to do if I get a house under contract & I don't or can't reassign it to an investor... Am I stuck with having to complete the deal by myself or is there a way to back out of it...?? Please help... hahaha (my agent kind of scared me when she said "you better make sure your investor is serious about buying it from you"...

Hi Elena

Thank you, it's always nice to hear I helped someone. 1) You might need a new agent, they're supposed to be on your team, not the one throwing a monkey wrench into your plays, don't let her make you second guess what you're doing, if that's the case find another one.

2) You should always have a good escape clause in place, such as pending partner's approval, pending funding, always have a couple you can use in case you do have to back out. I used the partner's approval and I didn't even have a partner. So, the less risk involved the better you feel about the deal.

Hope this helps, good luck!

Hello Hello!!!
I am a "newbie" investor been doing this for the last couple of months. I am still waiting to "make my 1st deal" happen. I have a HUUUUUGE CASH buyer in phx that i birddog for and he buys anything with profit..... maybe you have some houses that the sellers are ready, or as is properties that need a buyer! If you do assigning contracts, maybe you could assign it over to my buyer!?!? there of course are many ideas with this fun investing!!!

Maybe you could give me some insight and/or maybe we could work together on things!!??!!

Looking forward to talking to you!!

Finding investment properties in Arizona

My wife and I recently moved to Mesa from California to be near our first grandchild. My wife and I have been investing in real estate for around 5 years. We have five rental properties with four of them in California. We have been going to live auctions and going to the online auction websites looking for investment properties to buy in our area, but we are finding the bidding is way too high for these houses. I was wondering where I would go to find properties I can buy from wholesellers in Arizona. I currently have financing through an investment group and have a real estate agent who works with investors to help them find properties, but I would like to find some wholesellers in the area to help us purchase properties at a fair price. Thank you for your time!
