It’s late, I’m tired, you’re probably tired but I have to tell you something.

I’m in the middle of this crazy purchase and I’ll admit that if the negotiations were in the hands of someone else, this deal would have died weeks ago. It’s not that I’m some smooth talker, it’s that I’m not afraid to talk.

It seems everywhere I buy these days the other agent, appraiser and some lenders have had the fear of god placed upon them. They attempt to negotiate via the fax machine, facebook and in some cases Twitter. These people are afraid what they say may get them into trouble.  Real Estate is a people business

Things to work on today
1- always disclose, always     When in doubt disclose and if it’s agreed upon and legal your clear
2- be more bold, stand up for yourself and stop being a pussy
3- don’t meet in the middle, try and win one for your side.
4- write and offer - that’s right write and offer today

I annouced the acknowledgment in a press release that went over this moring.

How Tall Am I?…..With The Hat?

I missed parent teacher with my 12 year old son because I had a coaching call with a student. Mrs. Maestro went for both of us. His teacher wanted my wife to consult with me on whether or not we approved of our 6th grade son taking an 8th grade algebra class.

Ok, let me get this straight, you want my permission and approval, to allow my son to excel? Did I hear that correctly? Obviously I want my son to be pushed and to push himself, to not settle for mediocracy but to be the best he can be (sorry uncle same).

That night I had a Jerry McGwire moment, I started writing a book. I wrote into the wee hours of the morning and when it was all done, I cracked the success code. I really did. I wrote a mental masterpiece called “Just Quit Already -6.2 Reasons Why You Won’t Amount To Jack Squat.” I uncovered The missing link and I would like to give you a free copy and ask a favor.     See Below

After you read the book will you copy this blog URL and send it to 5 of your friends and have them send it to their 5 friends, and so and so and so (thanks Loreal) ?   You’ll see why when you read about relationships and “BM’s”   To get your FREE Copy just Click Here Oh and let me make this perfectly clear, Bill Gates will not be sending you any money.  I believe the world would be a much cooler place if everyone read this.

I recently received an email asking me “what takes place at one of your seminars and what kind of students attend your real estate trainings?”   Good Question

Real Estate investing is a numbers game and during one of the days I discuss the buy and sell numbers along with the buy and hold numbers.  During some of my events when the students are doing some calculations, I will pull out my Flip Mino HD and take a couple of quick shots of the attendee’s.

This is my version of Where’s Waldo - Can you see yourself?
