Flip This Wholesaler

Happy Monday!

I hope everyone had a great weekend.

I was able to get much accomplished, and plan on doing the same this week.  I’m leaving for St. Louis a week from tomorrow, and plan on busting my butt until then.

The deal I’m working on with my wholesaler buddy looks like it is going to be OK to close after all.  I think, anyway.  We were going to try and close it before Christmas, but my buyer left for Puerto Rico last week and won’t be back until Dec, 29th, so we’ll have to wait until the last week of the month to do it.

I’m also working on another REO deal with Murphy that I am supposed to be getting a contract on today (fingers crossed).  He was able to get this one before it hit the market (pocket listing).  It’s in a great neighborhood, and I wanted to pick up some new buyers for this area, so I put a humongous sign in the front yard over the weekend, and my phone rang off the friggin’ hook.  I picked up a handful of new cash buyers from it, one of which said he will have a contract and deposit for me today.  We’ll see.

What else?

Oh, I’m forcing myself to go to Toastmasters tonight!  I’ve had it on my list of things to do for about a year now, and I was going to make it one of my goals for 2010, but then I thought- screw it- might as well start now and get it over with.

I’m terrified of speaking in public, and I know that the only way to overcome fear is by facing whatever it is that you are afraid of.  Sooooo….I’m heading to a meeting tonight at 6:30.

I’m hoping they serve cocktails there.  Hehe.

That’s about all I’ve got for now, folks.   Let’s all make it a great week!

10-4 over and out.

P.S.
56 miles down, 28 to go! I almost missed yesterday, but forced myself to go after about 4 hours of procrastinating.
