I started out doing rehabs. Got out the Carleton Sheets book, "No Money Down," etc. Had a partner, and we got two rehabs literally no money down. We stood to make a lot of money and he moved them into a company he created without my knowledge. WE settled that...meanwhile, I had bid on and won three homes from the City.
The project was funded etc...but certain members of a neighborhood group didn't like my designs, which one of the members later admitted he had bid and lost...so even the president of the neighborhood group said they were being "idiots," his words.
The City was impressed with my proposal and offered me tens of their in-fill lots.
So I found a production builder in TK that was willing to sub from me and sold one in one month and another two weeks later.
That lead me here!
Actually I'm further than that.....one of my advisors has direct contact into New Orleans Reconstruction and you will see press releases about that coming out soon.
Again, I hope that tidbit doesn't get me an anklet fashion. There is a press release about it tomorrow.
