First Wholesale Deal Closed!

We finally got our first deal closed. ARV on the house was about $125K We got it under contract for $79,400 and assigned the contract for 5,600! With this being our first deal we know that it is possible and there will be more to come. I want to thank Bigger Pockets for providing the wealth of knowledge. And we already have a second house under contract! Look out Augusta here we come. My partner @Andre Elston and I are going to be on the podcast one day hopefully. LOL

Agreed, I would like to add that it does take work but after the stepping stones the path becomes smoother.  If it was too easy then everyone would be investing so I'm glad that investing is somewhat of a challenge because it seperates us from the rest.  Also if you have partner or partners it's good to make sure that you compliment each other and are on the same page with your Goals.  Thanks again to Bigger Pockets!

    On the 4plex I am at a standstill we and invited 3 investors reps and 2 construction groups/company and ....they have all passed i totally understand. it needs over 80-100,000 of repairs needed. the owner has thrown out a number of 150,000 Any suggestions the owner is eager and willing to negotiate..

    on the homes...ready to sign and move three properties..

    #1 is occupied and has a renter ready to sign, $2,000 down from rents balance due 43,000 fsbo..

    #2 2 bedroom 1 bath ready to move in nice long concrete driveway, touch up paint and final clean. - what contract do i use to secure the deal and should i get this listed with a Realtor

    #3 2 bedroom 1 bathroom needs lots of work cabinets, furnace stolen guy only wants - what contract do i use to secure the deal and should i list with a Realtor

    Can someone send me a sample contract and how a purchase agreements is filled out for Missouri that is available in the BP File Place. I down loaded one and it has TX. How or where do i include "assignment of interest/position" clause in the agreement, so I can wholesale it to another Buyer.

     Congrats. I just started out a couple weeks ago and your post is encouraging. Can I ask what you did to attract buyers? And long did it take to close once you got under contract?

    @Jay Luke Thanks man Glad to help. Our Buyer came from someone we met through our Local REIA. Get plugged in to yours and find out who buys, who holds, and who has a buyers list themselves. We had it under contract for a couple weeks before we found a buyer they closed on the property before the date on our original contract though.

     I'm curious on what you and your partner use for marketing for sellers? And do you get alot of traffic?
