April was a very crazy month.
-spent the better part of the month helping family out of foreclosure, bankruptcy, repossessed cars, stacked credit cards etc etc.
-worked on a financial plan with them. They should be entirely debt free in 3 years if they can stay with it. 350k to 0 on 70k a year.
-Bought a 2nd mortgage on a property for 15k, used our line of credit. The property closed yesterday and we made 7k for doing practically nothing.
-acquired the services of a buyers agent.
-walked through around 2 dozen homes, looked over hundreds.
-made a bid on two different properties. One for my personal residence one for rental. Waiting for word on one, got denied on the other. Our terms were good but someone else offered to close in 2 weeks, we offered 3 weeks. Oh well. btw, ATW both properties were around the same area in Denver I previously mentioned. One was 73k other was 87k. Prices are very good right now.
-working with a lender....should be able to pull off 10% down at ~6.85% for the investment prop and no money down on my personal prop (VA loan).
May
-I intend to be under contract on personal prop and investment prop.
-Cleaning up both props.
-Continue to look into deals with our investment partners.
-Learn more about what it takes to be a landlord. (Open ended yes, but I haven't narrowed down what I need to do yet)
