Auction can be good

Good Auction

We signed a bargain and sale agreement on August the 24th, the auction for the home would have taken place on September 16th. We celebrated with a dinner party on the 17th of September because they were so relieved that they were not going to lose their home. I watched as they signed the paperwork, you could see the stress roll off their shoulders. What a great feeling to help someone stay in their home. By the way I made $5,000 on this deal.

Know Your Market

My Story

My first family lives on the Oregon coast, (Depot Bay). This home has a million dollar view. It was a home that they built. The wife had MS. They built the home for her since they knew that her MS would get worst. They built wider hallways, staircases and wired the house for equipment that they knew she would need. She was involved in a car accident that aggravated the MS to the point she could not work anymore. She made $60,000 a year as a Pharmacist. How many of you could take a $60,000 hit? She did have disability insurance but that did not kick in for six months. But in the mean time all the damage had been done.

Road to succes

My road to success

I have been active in real estate investing since July 2004. When you have a supportive wife it makes things much better. I say this because there can be down times and pitfalls. More than anything it has been the support of my wife that has kept me going.

I came into real estate as a finder. Now I know that in some states, such as my own, being paid, as a finder is illegal. But nonetheless I have found a good niche and the money is good. You have to find a great partner to work with and one you can trust.
