Whew! First one behind me! - Posted by Brad

Well, I did it. I finally closed my first deal. ( I say finally, but I have only placed two bids, and have been in the industry for about 45 days) I placed a bid on a house that was a four bedroom, 1 bath, that needed A LOT of work, ($10K bid). To my surprise, they never even countered, they just accepted the offer. Immediately, I thought that I had messed up. But, I went ahead, placed my ad (Fixer Upper Special, cheap, cash, xxx-xxxx) I couldn’t use “handyman special” because the VHA said that it was sexist! So, I put it under contract with a binder after I had it under contract for two days, and sold it for $15k. Not bad for the first one, and not even my money as the $500 binder! (Can we say infinite return?) Wish all the newer and more experienced investors the same luck,
