Merry Christmas!

Thursday, December 15th, 2011

Here’s a little something to put you in the holiday spirit…

We are enjoying the season and counting down to Christmas! We hope you’ll have a wonderful time with your loved ones!

And remember, just because it’s a holiday doesn’t mean that there won’t be deals. We’ll keep them coming, and we’ll keep them fresh in case you feel the urge to do some property searching and beef up your investing during this time.

Merry Christmas and happy holidays from all of us at MHD!

$1 Billion Reasons to Invest

Wednesday, September 7th, 2011

So you want... One Biiiillion Dollars in equity?! You got it!

This week we reached a milestone that we are so proud of and we want to share the good news with you!…

$1,000,000,0000

That’s a lot of zeros, isn’t it? That’s how much our Motivated Seller Leads have offered in equity in the six years since we started providing this service!

To us, this number represents success and a growing investing trend — using the Internet as the main tool for finding investment properties. To you, this number represents OPPORTUNITY. It’s the proof that the deals are available and the equity is yours for the taking.

And how many leads does $1 billion equity translate into? Well, we’ve posted 27,877 motivated seller leads, which combined brought exactly $1,015,952,716.00 in equity to MyHouseDeals.com Investors. How much of that did you grab for yourself?

And it doesn’t stop there! Add 29,795 wholesale deals to those motivated seller leads and you have a combined total equity of $3,818,498,290! (We know it’s hard to keep count. That’s why we do it for you) – That’s over $3 billion in equity!

I hope this gets you as motivated to log in to your account and find your next deal as it motivates us to keep the deals (and equity) coming! To celebrate, we are running a special to get you to be the first in line for the next big equity deal.

Happy (and profitable) investing!

Celebrate your Financial Independence!

Wednesday, August 24th, 2011

This week I’m celebrating my birthday.

This time of year is very special to me. Not only because it is my birthday, but especially because it marks my “financial independence day.” It’s the date I quit my corporate J.O.B. (just over broke, as they say) back in 2003 to become a full-time real estate investor.

When I quit, I hadn’t even bought a single property but did know that most millionaires either made their fortunes in real estate or regularly invest in real estate. I said to myself, “no guts, no glory!”

It was the best birthday present I ever gave myself.

I then went on a “frenzy”, buying over 40 houses over the next five years. I was able to do this with no prior experience and using almost every creative purchasing method out there. I bought most with no money down and no credit check.

So today I toast to your financial independence! And may you find as much success in real estate investing as I have.

I truly believe that MyHouseDeals is a valuable tool to help you achieve your real estate investing dreams. I really wish a service like it was available when I started my life as an investor. And that’s exactly why I created it — to help others who are in a similar situation to mine back in 2003.

With that in mind, I’d like to encourage you to take advantage of all the tools and benefits the website has to offer by upgrading to a Premium account. To become a Premium member, follow this link…

Am I nuts!?!

Wednesday, February 16th, 2011

Hello again fellow investor!

Last summer, my entrepreneurs group won a contest. For the prize, we had a choice between some R&R in the Grand Cayman Islands or some skiing in Winter Park, Colorado. Seeing that it had been sizzling hot outside for a few weeks in a row, I was dying for some cooler weather, so I (and everyone else) chose Winter Park.

Fast forward to today. This winter has been one of the coldest on record and we just got back from an even colder destination. We froze our butts off in Winter Park! Oh how we longed to sink our toes into that warm Grand Cayman sand. Looking back, my friends and I must have been nuts!

Other than the cold weather, we had a FANTASTIC trip. I was so busy skiing, eating, drinking, and then skiing again that I didn’t take many pics. But I did manage to get a good one with a couple of my friends on the mountain top (I’m in the middle). There’s also a pic of us at dinner (I’m on left) and another of me in front of our cabin. Enjoy!…

Until next time, happy (and profitable) investing!

2010: The Year that Was…

Monday, January 10th, 2011

Are you wondering what we were up to in 2010? Well, check this out…

5,121

This is the number of wholesale deals we posted to MyHouseDeals.com in 2010. That’s 5,121 investing opportunities for you! How many of these did you claim?! Together, these deals offered upwards of $524 million in equity! Now that’s a big number.

3,631

This is how many Motivated Seller Leads we offered on the website last year. Yup! Over 3,500 homeowners hugry to sell their properties quickly used our service to find investor buyers! Total equity for these leads? $111,531,150.00!

All combined, we offered our investors 8,752 money-making opportunities with combined equity of over $635 million.  Not bad at all for a supposedly D.O.A. year for investing.

We wanted to share these numbers with you because we thought you’d be just as encouraged as we were when we first got a hold of them. Now join us in looking ahead to a bright new year…

Happy 2011! May this be your time to make things happen! We’ll do our part and keep the deals coming ;-)
