What am I missing? 9 monthes, 1 deal...
I've been interested in real estate for over a year. In that time I have read God knows how many books. I have "partnered" with a friend who has hard money connections. I've been going through the pre-foreclosures for multiple local counties and trying to find numbers to contact the owners. The people I contact either don't want to talk about their troubles (classic denial) or have another avenue they are working on.
Every book, website, forum, blog I read, makes everything seem easy. Find a good home at a good price, make an offer, then sell to an investor for a profit. How hard can it be? Except for the part where I talk to someone who wants my help.
I have been financially in trouble for a year. I work 55 - 60 hours a week trying to make ends meet. In my spare (lol) time I have been working the real estate.
Here is my plea. I am motivated. I need help. A coach, a mentor, a partner. I am willing to do all the work. To learn. In return, I will split profits 50/50. I am open to terms. I just need to fill in the blanks. I want to be successful.
Please help. My family is counting on me.
Thank you.
