7 Years!

Thursday, April 19th, 2012

Can you believe it? MyHouseDeals.com celebrates its 7 year anniversary this week!!

Seems like just yesterday that I was driving along the highway thinking about business when an idea popped into my head.

I said to myself, “I’m frustrated with looking for deals in so many different places. There should be one place where wholesalers can post their deals and rehabbers and landlords can buy them. And I should build it!”

A few days later, I started building the website and after a few months, it went live. At first, the site was just for Houston investors and it had just a few deals and a few members. But it grew exponentially over time.

Now we’re in 16 major cities and we provide info on wholesale deals AND motivated seller leads, plus all sorts of tools, education, and resources for thriving as a new or experienced investor.

But our main focus is still deals. To date, we’ve provided information on 32,880 wholesale deals and 28,890 motivated seller leads with a combined equity of over $4 billion!

Until next time, happy (and profitable) investing!

Top Zip Codes for Wholesale Deals – Jan, Feb & Mar 2012

Friday, April 13th, 2012

Hello again fellow investor!

We’re excited to announce that for the first time this year, we’re releasing a list of the most popular zip codes for wholesale deals!

If you do your own marketing to find investment property, target properties in these zip codes because they are more likely to have motivated sellers and/or properties in disrepair. Both of these conditions can lead to greater discounts and profits for investors like you.

We complied this data from the hundreds of wholesale deals that were posted to our website over the last three months.

To see it, just go here now…
