Gary (MO) 0 Report post Posted June 30, 2004 Wow Pete - that's GREAT! Was this a result of your billboard? How do you market for T/Bs that brings them in? I'm having difficulty finding someone with $2,500. let alone $7K! I'm thinking it's related to the price of the house - like MC says, "ugly houses attract ugly tenants". What was the sale price of your house? Congrats again!Gary Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
puls1234 0 Report post Posted June 30, 2004 The sale price was $170k. Yes, this was a home that saw my billboard. So just this one deal pays for my billboard for 2 years! I found the tenant buyer through my classified ad and through my sign in the front yard. Pete Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jason (AL) 1 Report post Posted June 30, 2004 Congrats again Pete! Just wondering....why was the seller(s) wanting/needing to sell? -and- Are you getting to keep the entire $7k?Did the sellers ask for any of it...or do they even know how much ya got? Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
puls1234 0 Report post Posted July 1, 2004 Jason, The sellers father has Lou Gherig's disease and she and her husband wanted to move south to take care of him. Yes I kept the entire $7,000. They never asked me about it. All they know is that they will net above market price!!! Pete Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Doug Pretorius (ON) 9 Report post Posted July 1, 2004 Congrats Pete! Just curious, how long did this one take you, from signing with the seller to depositing the $7k? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gary (MO) 0 Report post Posted July 2, 2004 Man Pete! That's pretty good - what do you think is the secret of your success with that? Perhaps that's normal? Your marketing on the sell side is simply a yard sign and newspaper ads - right? Gary Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
puls1234 0 Report post Posted July 2, 2004 Yes, just a sign in the yard and a classified ad. Keeping it simple is the key. Pete Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
