Great idea Rich! This is something that should have been done a long time ago and it will help both newbies and us seasoned pros know who are the real players, and who are just the talkers.

I was unable to actually close on a deal with Rich Weese here on BP, but by no fault of either of us. The seller moved on another buyer just 2 days before so it was ONLY a time issue that prevented us from getting the deal together, however, that experience, and a few after showed me (and proved to me) that Rich is not only a real player, but a great business man and a gentlemen. (Hard combo to find these days!)

I am very close with several others here on BP and once the deals are complete, I will post them here as well.

Thanks again for the thread Rich and I look forward to many deals together in the near future!

I'm not sure if this counts, but I found my mentor on BP (Nick Johnson) and we just closed our first deal together yesterday. We close our second deal together next week! Both will be shortsale flips.

I just did a short sale with a BP member, He profited 35k after commission/fee's and it was split 50/50 with me. My funds of almost $17,500 were transferred this morning and will post at 2pm.

We have another supposed to be closing next week and just this morning offered it to another BP member who's contacted me about purchasing properties in the Phoenix area, this particular property if sold to this BP member will be done so at 55% ARV.

We're waiting to hear back from the BP member today or Monday, then that will be two deals with 3 of BP members involved.

edit: It looks like Justin beat me to the punch in posting

Rich,

I have a partner that is currently working the Cape Coral and Ft. Myers areas.

We have a purchases 35 new units and 56 improved lots. Currently looking for other steals as well, commercial, land, ocean front, etc. But our focus is residential new standing inventory. Bank owned, in default usually works best.

I would like him to meet with you if possible to see if there is a possibility of helping each other in that market?

Great topic. I hear about connections made on BP all the time in private. I hope everyone will come out and share it publicly!

Rich,

The area Englewood. The condos were Hebblewhite Court and the lots in Arlington Cove.

It's working out well so we'll probably do another one.

Very good point Rich! Perhaps that should be a clue to other members wanting to be active investors to get more involved in BP and invest more time here.

No Nick, you would have to remove one of the crack attics from the basement!

Anyways, back on point, whenever you are ready, I am here. I'm still waiting for you to take me up on my offer to do deals in your backyard with you too!
