Sparetimeinvestor 0 Report post Posted May 13, 2004 I have to thank Mike for his insights and wisdom and giving us all the opportunity to learn from his little $97 book. I have spent money on a boot camp which cost a lot. If I had only found out about the naked-investor first, I would of saved 5k. Oh, well. You learn from all courses. I completed my first CA as of May 1. I helped my neighbor fill his house. I collected a $12,500 option payment which I distributed $9500 to him since he was my neighbor and I kept the other $3000. Not bad considering I put out signs on a Thursday night (for an hour) in the beginning of April and filled the property on Sunday. All this happened even before my ad started in the paper on Monday. I have another property on a CA that is still pending a qualified tenant buyer. High end home so it is taking a little longer. I do have an interested party working on getting at least half of the $15,000 option consideration by months end to hold the property. As Mike states. "CA's were his calling card" I am liking them just as much myself. Thanks Mike again for your course. I highly recommend it to any investor. Kurt... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Barry 0 Report post Posted May 24, 2004 Congrats Kurt! There is little I find more rewarding than having a deal come together from putting some acquired knowledge to good use. I agree with you about Michael's course and also his wisdom pertaining to the L/O method of investing. He is second to no one in my book when it comes to sharing practical applications of this niche of RE investing. I honestly believe this is the best place for someone to get their RE career off the ground with minimum risk and expense (especially using CA's). Thanks again for your willingness to share information MC. Regards, Barry It's not the critic who counts. It's not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of the deed could have done it better. The credit belongs to the man in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, who at best knows the high achievement of triumph, who at worst, fails while daring greatly for he knows his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory no defeat. --Theodore Roosevelt Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MichaelC 160 Report post Posted May 24, 2004 Wow, Barry! With that effusive praise you threw my way, someone's gonna accuse you of either being a shill, or think you've had one too many waves crash down upon you. Thank you for the kind words.

Could be? But when I go to the Caribbean I come back paler than pale. Seems you can't get a sunburn hangin' 'neath the wicker fan at barside.
