Flip This Wholesaler

1/7/2008

Man, this year is sure starting out good. I got a letter in the mail today from National Claims Recovery Services telling me that the state of Florida has unclaimed funds in my name in the amount of $1400. I thought it was a scam at first, but after making some phone calls, and then checking with the State of FL Bureau of Unclaimed Property, it turns out that the money is indeed mine. Sweet. It came from an insurance policy from a long time ago, and I don’t really understand why it’s mine, but it is, and I’m not about to argue. I’ll take my free money and go straight to Costa Rica with it. Woohoo. I also found out that I can file the claim myself and save the 15% fee that NCRS charges. I’m sending out the paperwork tomorrow, and should have my cashola within 90 days.

When it rains, it poors, huh?

I’m currently marketing 4 properties for other investors, so my phone has been ringing off the hook. If Craigslist ever starts charging for real estate ads, I’m screwed. To show my appreciation, I bought one of these today:

That Craig, he’s a smart guy.
