Great job Andy! Keep it up!
That’s awesome equity capture Andy! What a return! Great job!
You made it to 10 after all. I know you were worried about getting the 10th contract. Good job. Way to be a leader for Montana. Great example.
How many properties did you own before you joined Lifestyles 1 1/2 years ago? Have the deals gotten better since becoming a member? Great job on the video and your investments.
Thanks Natalie, Actually we now have #11 under contract and set to close in a few weeks. I hope Montana is learning by my example!
Steven: Prior to joining Lifestyles I had 5 properties. The deals have become better because I’m using the Lifestyle roadmap! Thanks for the positive support.

I’m not sure if I buy this story because why would he have $3000 in the deal if it’s worth 175k. Why not get all of your money out and have ZERO in the deal. He’s at 70% LTV and could have easily been had ZERO in the deal if it was really worth 175k.
Miguel: I asked the lender to finance 120K because that’s about what I had in it at the time and really wasn’t interested in borrowing more than I needed to pay off the line of credit I used to purchase it for cash. Being on the higher end for rentals I preffered to keep my note a little lower and cashflow a little more. If I could only have 3K tied up in each house and capture 52K equity I’d be thrilled.
It can be done.!!! My wife and myself started buying homes in our neighborhood cheep and re doing them ourselfs now we have 6 on our street. We use the postive cash flow to pay off the notes now we have 72K extra coming in to add to our retirement income. Use my 401 K plan to but the last 3 and now we are fixed for a good life. reitred. Reant are going up , what we rent for 1K in 3 to 7 years will be 1200 to 1500 per month. Garenteed to keep up with increes of coct of living. We now make more than when we were both wotking. I love my 4 hour a mouth work time frame. Keep up the good work, real estate is the way to go. I listen to you radio program here in San Antonio TX. I have mintered others in the feild since then. You can’t get ritch quick but with good Biz. since you can reach your golds. We did not ever have to look beyound our own street.

Hi Dale,
Excited about coming to Saturdays’ meeting. Hope to join Lifestyle soon! I’ve been listening to your radio shows. I was in air-conditioning for over 30 yrs as a (TDIndustries) techician throughout the metroplex until an auto accident 2 yrs ago. Broke my back and had a very long recovery. I was an installer for 15 yrs then a commercial tech for 15.
I never was much of an indoor person. So, by being forced to stay at home, I have learned much. I write article’s at ezinearticles.com. I’ve also took Trump’s entrepreneur’s program, which is RE. And I took a commercial RE course there as well.
The accident wiped us out. Our new home in Forney was foreclosed on and my truck (Ford Harley 350) was reposed. There was a 6 month gape between when my workman’s comp checks ended until my disability check’s started. That’s really what sunk us! I go to the VA hospital as an out-patient and we ride the bus everywhere now! But I’m soon to get a car so I can work RE. My niche right now is RE probate’s, sticking up bandit signs making a cash buyers list.
I’m just one who never did quite! I’m falling my way forward. I want to join you guys and learn what I can. Then in two years my wife and I plan to move to Los Vegas to live in the same city as my son, his wife and our 3 grandchildren. However, from what I learn at Lifestyle, an investor there with apartment buildings.
I feel comfortable in RE because I spent so many years working in and around RE dealing all the professional people, commercial and single family and mutizone homes. We did own three homes at one time. Being poor don’t bother me because I need it to build my “rages to riches” story line for articles and books; though am rich in intellect.
See what was once our vacation RV is now our home. When were much better off, this 28’ conventional pull RV was what we took vacations in. Hope you don’t mind me sending this little background on me.
Your future student
