Flip This Success Story: Featuring the Lovely and Talented, Mrs. Shae Bynes!

Tuesday, July 6, 2010

Hey guys!

It’s time for another Flip This Success Story…

This time around, I’m interviewing my buddy, Shae Bynes, from GoodFaithInvesting.com about a deal she recently closed on as a result of her ongoing direct mail campaign.

Say “Hi” to Shae everybody!

Shae Flip This Success Story: Featuring the Lovely and Talented, Mrs. Shae Bynes!

As you’ll hear in the call, Shae’s investing strategy involves both wholesaling properties as well as buying and holding. In this instance, the property was definitely a keeper!

Check out the 30 minute call and find out how Shae was able to pick up this rental property from an “accidental landlord” which is now giving her a positive cash flow of $600/month! Oh, and she did it without using her own credit (she secured a private lender to fund the deal instead), AND she only had to come out of pocket $100 for the entire deal!!

Way to go, Shae!  W00t! W00t!

Deals, and Oprah, and Stuff..

Thursday, September 3, 2009

Holy crap, Blogosphere- long time, no post.

I do apologize for my severe lack of posting lately.   I think I said that last time, but I’ll just go ahead and repeat myself.

I  have a pretty good excuse for my absense, though…

I wasn’t even going to mention this yet, but Oprah (Winfrey) found out about my eBook, and she had her people contact my people, and next thing you know, I’m off to Chicago for meetings and such.  She’s preparing to launch her “eBook of the Month Club,”  and wants Flip This REO! to be a part of it…

I’m still thinking it over.

So, anyway, things have been kind of crazy over here, as you can imagine..

I know it was six years ago when I wrote about it, but remember those two deals that I was working on with Murphy?

Well, one of them, as it turns out, has some serious settlement issues going on (as in, it’s on a sinkhole).   I don’t know if you guys in other parts of the country have to deal with sinkholes, but they’re all over the place in sunny F-L-A.

This isn’t the first time this has happened to me, and if I wasn’t deliriously tired right now, I would search through the archives and find the post about the other time I thought I had the deal of the century and then I went back to inspect the house for the 2nd time and realized that I had a big problem on my hands.  Remember that?

Actually…..wait a sec……..here it is.

So, anyway, long story short, the back of the house looks kinda like this…

stair step cracks3 Deals, and Oprah, and Stuff..

Good times.

It’s not quite that bad, but bad enough to put the kibosh on the deal.

In case you’re wondering how in the heck both of us could have missed something like this, I don’t really have an answer for you.   Apparently, we both had our heads up our asses when we walked around the house..

Thankfully, the bank’s addendum included a 10 day inspection period, so Murphy was able to get out of the contract and get his deposit back.

I wonder if I learned my lesson this time? I also wonder if that sentence should have a question mark after it?

We found a buyer for the other deal, which is supposed to close at the end of the month.   Unfortunately,  we have the worst  title company in the whole wide world handling the closing, so I’m not holding my breath.

(BTW, I just Googled “Watson Title”, and apparently I’m not the only one who thinks they SUCK.)  And no, Filip Kunovski is not my alias.  Although, the name does have a nice ring to it..

Let’s see….what else?

I’m leaving for St. Louis tomorrow to visit with my sister and nephew, and then my Dad is coming down from IL and we’re all heading to the sticks of Southern IL for a family reunion where there will most likely be a pig roast, and possibly a tractor pull.

And hopefully, lots o’ beer.

In the can.

I probably won’t be able to post to my blog while I’m there, but you can follow my updates on Facebook and Twitter if you feel so inclined.

I guess I better get going.  It’s almost 3am, and shockingly enough, I haven’t started packing yet..

Later Alligators!

Happy Birthday Mom, I LOVE YOU!! XOXOXOXO
