FortuneBuilders Student Success

This was my first flip after joining Mastery last year. I found this deal on Zillow. I felt it was perfect because it was a small house that just needed a little sprucing up. It was in a pretty sought after neighborhood. It had a lot of historic qualities and good bones. I turned it…

The deal was off the MLS. It was a 2 bedroom 1 bathroom condo next to a golf course. The purchase price was not bad. The down payment was funded by my own 401 and the rest was a conventional loan from a bank. The HOA took care of the outside so I just have…

This property was found by using one of our marketing campaigns for SMS/RVM campaigns and the owner was tired of keeping up with the property and the tenants. We negotiated the house as-is condition and brought it down significantly to keep it as a rental to start our rental portfolio.

The purchase and rehab of this property were all funded with Private Money Lenders.

Additionally adding a bedroom so that there would be enough to rent to a section to a tenant…

We got the deal from a wholesaler that we found on Craigslist. 70% of the deal was funded by a hard money lender, 20% was funded by private money lenders, and 10% out of our pocket. The house was located in a rural area and we were not sure if it would sell quickly. We…

We'd built a good report with a wholesaler. Got a call saying we were close but were outbid unless we wanted to add a couple thousand. The numbers still made sense so we went for it; however, all our funds were tied up so our realtor and another friend jumped in as private money lender…

Lumialani was brought to me as an off-market deal from a realtor who was the buyer's agent on one of my previous listings. I got first look and she negotiated in my favor to lock in the offer the day they went live on the market. It was funded by CIVIC and an equity partner,…

My first investment property deal actually came from an Airbnb guest I had. We were casually discussing what we did on the side and I mentioned real estate. She mentioned her sister needed to sell her house so she facetimed her and I learned she's in a preforeclosure. I locked up the deal & was…

This deal was a referral from our network. We were able to get this project 100% funded with local private money. This project took 3 dumpsters to empty all the contents left in it. We then worked with our contractor to get the whole house updated on the inside, rip and replace the roof, and…

Got the property under contract through a second-tier realtor lead from outbound text marketing and ended up assigning it to our other realtor's repeat client.
