I'm Back

12/8/2008

Well, what can I say? Phoenix was AWESOME. I can't even tell you how lucky I am to be a part of the mastermind group that I am in. There is an amazing cast of characters that belong to it, and I have learned so much from all of them already. We crammed so much into the 3 days we were there, and I left feeling more motivated and positive than I have in a really long time. I set some new goals for myself to achieve before our next get-together, and let me just tell you, the consequence for not achieving them is something that I can not let happen..... So, needless to say, I've got some work to do over the next few months..

I ended up getting another offer accepted while I was in Phoenix (right after I landed, actually). I already had a buyer lined up for this while I was countering with the bank, so that's good news.

I have another REO-title-company-disaster in the works right now. (Yaaay!) So that makes two. Both deals are supposed to close on the 19th of this month. One of them is the one that was supposed to close last month where they forgot to get the addendum signed. The other is one I got accepted about a month ago, and the bank's title company lost the file or something, and no one knows what the hell is going on, and no one really cares, either- well, except for me and my buyer. That's pretty much the status of the other one, too. I am SO, SO, SO, SO, SO, SO, SICK of dealing with these incompetent, effing, morons. Seriously, I am just FED. UP. It's like I have to do the job of 4 other people if I want to get a deal to close in a somewhat reasonable amount of time. It's so frustrating. I probably spent 3 hours on the phone today trying to get in contact with someone who knew what the heck was going on, and I still got nowhere.

The one that I got accepted in Phoenix is also supposed to close on the 19th, but I highly doubt they will be able to pull it off. It would be nice to close all 3 in one day, and then a few days later head home for Christmas. Is that too much to ask, I wonder?? Can I request a Christmas Miracle??? Please?

I have a few other offers out there that I might be getting accepted this week, and then I still have to sell the one that I got accepted the day before I left. I have an entire 30 days to sell that one, and I'm making at least 10k on it, come hell or high freaking water.

And now I'm off to bed.

Adios.

Hey Jerry-

Was great to see you again..

Sorry I missed that margarita. :)

I'd love to hear what you guys did there. Congrats on more deals. Think about it this way. You are probably making more money than anyone else on your team, so maybe that will make you feel better about being the babysitter for everyone. You are the investor, you are in the driver's seat. I hope you find some good competent players soon Steph!

Wheres the Pics???!?!?!?!?

Steph said...

Way to think on the bright side, Tim :) Unfortunately, I can't choose the players on the bank's side of the transaction, so I just have to suck it up..

Kyle- Sorry, I did not get any pics this time. :(

Steph-

I'm a little nervous now because I bought my son a Blackberry Storm for Christmas. I mean no offense, but do they really suck or are you technologically challenged??

Hope you get lots of offers accepted this week!

Hi Sandy,

Honestly, I think it has a lot more to do with the fact that I have no patience whatsoever. I mean, I really have no patience, at all.

I think if I would have given it a few more weeks, I would have grown to like it. I just couldn't wait that long.

When I got my first Blackberry, I hated it for about the first month, and then when I finally got used to it, I fell in love. :)

I wouldn't worry- I bet your son will love it.

What kind of Mastermind group did you go to in Phoenix? Thanks Rick

Steph said...

Hi Rick,

It's called the Flip VIPs. It's one of Steve Cook's mentoring programs.
