@@@@@Most people do not know my partner is my 348
@@@@@Most people do not know my partner is my catIf they accept the offer, and I don't want the deal, I call my home and speak to my catI make this absurd statement to illustrate how absurdly easy and simple the game isSo many people make things too difficult and take them too seriously
Finding a good deal, the right business, the right people, the right investors, or whatever is just like datingYou must go to the market and talk to a lot of people, make a lot of offers, counteroffers, negotiate, reject and acceptI know single people who sit at home and wait for the phone to ring, but unless you're Cindy Crawford or Tom Cruise, I think you'd best go to the market, even if it's only the supermarketSearch, offer, reject, negotiate and accept are all parts of the process of almost everything in life
?Jog, walk or drive a certain area once a month for ten minutesI have found some of my best real estate investments while joggingI will jog a certain neighborhood for a yearWhat I look for is changeFor there to be profit in a deal, there must be two elements: a bargain and changeThere are lots of bargains, but it's change that turns a bargain into a profitable opportunity So when I jog, I jog a neighborhood I might like to invest in It is the repetition that causes me to notice slight differencesI notice real estate signs that are up for a long timeThat means the seller might be more agreeable to dealI watch for moving trucks, going in or out I stop and talk to the driversI talk to the postal carriersIt's amazing how much information they acquire about an area
I find a bad area, especially an area that the news has scared everyone away from I drive it for sometimes a year waiting for signs of something changing for the betterI talk to retailers, especially new ones, and find out why they're moving in
