Today’s special guest is Corrie Moore. She hails from Topica, Texas and she’s only been wholesaling for 6 months. However, the smart wholesaling neophyte has already closed 7 deals! And she’s just warming up. If you want to bring in some cash and you’re looking for motivation and inspiration, consider listening to Corrie’s story a must!
The Deal:
Corrie is a mother of 6 and has been a stay-at-home mom for 15 years. She stumbled upon real estate while looking for ways to earn money without leaving her home. A friend told her about the Wholesaling Inc. podcast and from there she found the push she needed to give wholesaling a try.
- One of the most lucrative deals she has closed was from a call she got from a bandit sign (yes, bandit signs still work!).
- Seller was motivated since the property was in distress and is already 6 years behind taxes.
- The owner asked for $60, 000 but she offered $37, 000.
- While she was not able to close the deal that same day, owner eventually called her a week after and gladly accepted the $37, 000 offer.
- She was able to turn the property for $46, 100. That means she got a whopping $9, 100 assignment fee!
