Stay Focused!
Howdy — just a quick reminder to stay focused over the Christmas break. Rest up, enjoy the time, but come back ready to take massive action like never before. Don’t live life by default. Live life by design. Wishing everyone a great Christmas and an even stronger New Year.
Stay Focused!

🔥 Small Win, Big Shift: Real Estate Started Feeling Easier When I Finally Did This…
I wanted to share a quick win from this week not a huge “closed a massive deal” type of win…but the kind that actually moves your business forward. For the first time in a long while, I’ve been able to: ✔ Get real clarity on the bottlenecks slowing me down ✔ Stop guessing which actions matter ✔ Start focusing only on what brings results ✔ And finally feel in control of my pipeline again And honestly? It wasn’t because I worked harder, or put in more hours…It was because I finally stopped trying to figure everything out alone. Once I got the right support and clear direction, the overwhelm dropped and traction showed up fast. It made me realize something simple: 👉 In real estate, you’re never “stuck” you’re just missing the right guidance at the right moment. So that’s my win for the week: Clarity → Confidence → Consistency. It's wild how fast things change when those three line up. Curious…What’s ONE win you had this week in your real estate journey, even if it’s small? And if you’ve been feeling stuck deals delayed, leads cold, no traction feel free to drop a comment. Happy to share what helped me get back on track.

@Mercy Praise pay per lead, expired leads, buy a list of Sellers is the fastest way. For example Propstream, iSpeedToLead, Xleads, etc… I hope this helps.

I chose to pay per lead, and it paid off with four deals closed! It’s because pay per lead attracts leads with a clear goal. Another effective approach is working with expired MLS sellers. They’re highly motivated and have a strong intent. For buyers/disposals, I invest in memberships like Investor Lift. It’s all about working on both sides of the transaction.
🎁 No gift can give you THIS
You can unwrap every gift under the tree…and still feel unsettled. Because no gift in the world gives you peace of mind. Peace comes from knowing: You’re not drifting. You’re building something real. You’re finally moving instead of waiting. As the year rolls toward a close, let’s get something straight: ❌ No one is coming to save you. ❌ No one is handing you financial freedom. ❌ And January doesn’t magically change anything. Every year, people tell themselves the same lie: 👉 “I’ll start once the year begins.” But the calendar doesn’t create momentum. Decisions do. That’s why I'm hosting the 3-Day Commercial Breakthrough Challenge starting January 5. This is the exact system I’ve used for over a decade to find, fund, and profit from commercial real estate. If you’re tired of starting over every year… If you’re done watching others make moves while you hesitate… If you know you’re capable of more — but haven’t pulled the trigger yet… This is your line in the sand. Most people will drift into the new year hoping something feels different. The people who win? They decide early. They act fast. They build momentum while others wait for clarity. Stop waiting. Start moving. 2026 is built by what you do NOW. Register here

It's not commercial...4-unit analysis...yikes..
Sharing a quick underwriting example from a recent 4-unit analysis. I applied my commercial minimums and pro-forma which I've been told not to speculate.... I’m not pursuing this deal, but it was a good exercise in how small pricing corrections and thoughtful financing structure can significantly change deal performance. The Seller will most likely NOT take my offer since she is making more monthly than what I would be paying her every month. - Seller Price: $245K - Assignment Fee: $10K - Total Price: $255K - Down Payment: $25K - Seller Financing: $230K at 3% interest-only Current rents are $3,270/month. Using a 40% expense ratio, NOI is approximately $23,544/year, which puts the in-place cap rate around 9.2%. With a very modest rent normalization of $250/month total ($62.50 per unit), NOI increases to roughly $26,544/year, resulting in a pro-forma cap rate of about 10.4%. Under the interest-only structure, monthly debt service is about $575, and post-adjustment cash flow is roughly $1,600/month, with a DSCR near 3.8. As the Seller would you accept this deal from me?

I just found out the Seller has an $80k mortgage. Therefore, the numbers are no longer going to work. O-well, it was worth a try. Subject-To doesn't work here either since the Seller isn't really motivated and content with the current cash flow they are receiving.
