Cash Flow Depot Speaker - JB Banning

I am fortunate to have JB as both a personal friend and mentor. JB is mainly a "paper" guy and lives in Hot Springs, Arkansas.

He has been a follower of some of the great teachers such as Jack Miller, Peter Fortunato, John Schaub, David Tilney and others for many years and frequently brainstorms with Peter on deals and scenarios.

JB shared both mindset and technical strategies that were helpful to him on his path to success - again, he was very forthcoming with some of the personal and business adversities he encountered along the way.

Weekend Happenings

Just came back from a 3 day event in Las Vegas put on by Jackie Lange of Cash Flow Depot. Excellent weekend with lots of great speakers, content and attendees.

Check out Jackie's website at http://www.cashflowdepot.com/ Met some of the people who give testimonials on website, and they have been following her training succesfully for years. For $97/year, you can have access to alot of training materials from some of the masters, including Jack Miller (his son, Chris, runs cashflowdepot with Jackie) Well worth the investment.

Andy Heller Workshop

Spent Saturday in San Francisco at Andy Heller's workshop. Andy is the author of "Buy Low, Rent Smart, Sell High" among other publications.

Andy specializes in Rent to Own, or Lease Options, which is my chosen exit strategy also.

Great workshop, lots of good info. Highly recommend his material for anyone wanting to pursue rent to own business.

My Day Today

Just thought I would expand on my day today as it was quite busy.

Was in Vacaville at 8am this morning to get a roofing crew started, only to discover the former homeowner had not completed her move out having been given an extra week.

Ended up taking her to Uhaul (for the second time) to get the rest of her stuff loaded and moved out - in addition to paying $1000 of her security deposit on her new place.

However, still cheaper than her original plan of sledge hammering the house before leaving!

Then onto house in Suisun City at 10am to meet haul out crew to do a clean out on a house that tenant left a bunch of stuff behind - including their cat and 2 kittens who were starving - of course I went to the store, bought cat food and fed them. Going back tomorrow to pick up and take to humane society.

Same house had carpet cleaners at 12.30 and janitorial crew at 4pm. All ready for new tenant to begin moving in tomorrow morning (I will be there to meet her for inspection at 8am tomorrow before proceeding onward to inspect roof progress in Vacaville).

At 2pm, spend 2 hours looking at some new prospective properties, some for Joint Venture deals and some for just finders fee. Then went by to check on rehab here in American Canyon - looks great - will be posting more pics tomorrow.

Made offer on one tonight on one of the properties from today.

Alot of other admin type tasks - printing out agreements, emails, faxing docs etc.

Just finishing up now - as I said, long day today!!
