Laura Perry joins Amber to discuss living as a transgender male for 10 years, her life leading up to the transition, and the transformation she experienced through the Word of God, Jesus, and the faithful prayers of her mother. Questions Laura and I Discuss: (2:13) What was life like for you as a young girl?  Did you grow up with Christian parents? Did you fit in at school?  (5:38) At age 8 you were molested and that only compounded your feelings of wanting to be a boy. How so? (6:55) What was your relationship like with your parents during your teen and young adult years? (15:23) By 2008, you had began transitioning to a man.  What measures did you take? (22:15) You were fully living as a transgender male, but you realized all the physical change had not made you happy.  What was going on internally during those years? ....... Memorable Quotes from Transgender to Transformed: "I grew up with this just real identity crisis, not knowing who I was, not feeling like I fit in." "[Y]ou hear that you're wonderfully made. If that's true, then God's a jerk. That's how I began to view God. He did this just to make me miserable." "I wanted to be the opposite of a Christian, whatever that was." "[A] lot of times we get so focused on whatever sin they're involved in and we think that's the problem, but the problem is so much deeper. In every story I've ever heard, there's always a reason that they turn to these sinful lifestyles, and most of the time, it's a distorted view of God. They feel like God has failed them, or they don't trust God, or if God is good, why did He do this? or Why did He allow this, and that's common across every story that I hear." "When we hang on to bitterness and unforgiveness and resentment, it leads to defilement and fornication because we start trying to gratify our flesh, rather than dealing with all the pain that's inside." [based on reading from Hebrews 12:15-16] "I began to get very, very deep into sexual sin, trying so hard to fix the brokenness in me by just satisfying the flesh." "I wanted to be a man, but I didn't know there was anything I could do about it. I had never heard the word transgender." SHOW NOTES cont.

Rebecca (Becky) joins me to discuss sharing the faith you live in a post-Christian world, celebrating God's power in our weakness, and asking good questions like Jesus. Questions Becky and I Discuss:  (9:23) When did you begin walking with Jesus?  Briefly share a bit of your faith journey with us. (16:20) Let's go back to when you first released your best-selling book Out of the Saltshaker, what did you hope a book on evangelism would accomplish 40 years ago? (22:39) Forty years later you decided to write a new book on evangelism:  Stay Salt: The World Has Changed your Message Must Not. Why?  (26:21 and 37:25) What I found helpful in Stay Salt is that you write not only about how the world has changed, but you address how to deal with our feelings of inadequacy, lack of confidence, and knowledge.  What are some ways you encourage Christians to overcome those feelings when sharing about Jesus in our post-Christian world? (37:25) Can you share with us how to bring up in the subject of faith in our conversations without sounding pushy or intrusive?  (41:36) How do we move from a natural conversation, a normal conversation to a spiritual one? (continuation of #5) Quotes to Remember: "The way He [Jesus] communicated the gospel was tied to the person, tied to their longings. He never treated anyone like an evangelistic project." "Biblical evangelism is threefold..... "So what's changed? We have been living in a world and particularly in the West, that is dominated by what I call the lethal distortions of post modernity. And that wasn't true when I wrote Out of the Salt Shaker. What do I mean by the lethal distortions, [of post modernity]? The collapse of absolute truth." "We're not the Creator, we are God dependent. We are not self sufficient. God doesn't send us out empty handed. He's provided everything we need for witness through the power of the Holy Spirit, the power of the truth of the gospel, the power of Jesus love. But not only that, He is delighted to reveal His glory, through human weakness." "One of the underlying themes of all of Scripture: God reveals His glory through human weakness." "Where we need to begin in evangelism is, celebrate our smallness, and then lean on the power of the Holy Spirit." "When we're talking to somebody, how often we think, what if I don't have the right answer? What if I'm not clever enough? What if I can't do that? That's not the point. It is that we have another who dwells within us. We've got to start learning how to lean on the Spirit. We may very well not be great evangelists. But you see, it isn't self confidence that we need. It's God confidence." SHOW NOTES cont.

This week, Cody and I Discuss our love for Dragon Quest, along with what makes JRPGs/RPGs so addictive.

Vivian Mabuni joins Amber to discuss investing your lives into others, so that they may know and walk with Jesus. We discuss our heart posture toward discipleship, inquiring of the Lord, and some practical ways to begin discipling others. Questions Vivian and I Discuss: (8:39) How did you begin walking with Jesus? (17:14) God led you to a place of working with college students and discipling them and you have faithfully discipled them for decades.  Share a bit about that journey. (20:36) Discipleship can be such a "big, churchy" word. How do you go about discipling someone? (26:24) In a culture, where we seem to go, go, go, yet often "feel" we aren't living out our purpose. In your book, Open Hands, Willing Heart: Discover the Joy of Saying Yes to God,  you encourage your readers to look at the posture of their hearts. What does that mean? And how did that play out in your surrendering to God's will as a young college graduate? (34:34) Saying yes to everything asked of you is not necessarily saying yes to God. As believers continuously asking God for wisdom and discernment will help us know His calling.   What are some common roadblocks to saying Yes to God? (38:37) How have you stayed focused on running the mile you're in? (44:33) To encourage our listeners will you share a story where you now know the outcome and it clearly points to the faithfulness of God? Quotes to Remember: "I followed through and I gave Him my whole life. I just said, 'I am all in'." "Invest your life into others." "I think that all believers can be in places where we are being mentored and discipled and we can seek to build into the next generation." "I can share from my life experience, I can share what I'm learning in the Scriptures, I can continue to point each and every person to the Lord and His character, so that they are not dependent upon me, but are ultimately always dependent on the Lord."   SHOW NOTES cont.  Resources Mentioned: Someday is Here Virtual Conference: June26, 2021 Connect with Vivian Mabuni at vivianmabuni.com ------------------------------------------------------ Follow Grace Enough Podcast on IG and FB and www.graceenoughpodcast.com ------------------------------------------------------ Episode Sponsor: Dwell Differently Dwell helps you memorize one verse every month by taking the first letter of every word in a verse stringing them together in a cool design.

Peter and I Discuss challenges relating to teaching during the Pandemic --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/modern-educator/support

Amanda Glass joins me to discuss the inspiration behind her book, That's What Dads Are Made For   You may be thinking it came from a place of intimate connection with her dad, but it actually came out of a relationship where she didn't feel fully known by her dad. It wasn't until she had children of her own and her dad passed away that her eyes were opened to his present hand throughout her life.  We also discuss her hope for That's What Dads Are Made For book and how Philippians 4:8 played into her journey. Questions Amanda and I Discuss: (7:32) Take us back and share a little about your childhood. (11:32) Growing up what was your experience with Jesus like? (13:48) As a young girl you struggled with the level of quality time spent with your father.  Share a bit about your relationship with your dad as a young girl and what you longed for. (16:34) Once you had children of your own and your father passed away you began to see that your father may not have been an emotional guy, but he did show his affection in simple, everyday moments.  Tell us a bit about that discovery process. (22:29) Your perspective about your relationship with your father shifted so much that you decided to write a children's book: That's What Dads Are Made For. Why did you decide to write this book? (32:51) As we close, what encouragement would you give the women listening who lived in the same home with her father, but like you feels that he never connected with her? Quotes to Remember: "I grew up in a family rooted in love, but it was heavy on rules and behavior." "Behaviors aren't just good and bad. Behaviors communicate to us ways that kids might be feeling tension that might exist." "We [my dad and me] didn't have heart to heart conversations. He didn't ask me the details about my day. We had small moments of connection, but we didn't have that deep sense of connection that I was longing for." "Learn about God and the Bible. Believe what it says about Him and how much He loves us. Get to know Him as Father and connect with Him and that's going to help you see your dad differently." "I would just encourage them to think on Philippians 4:8. Pray over that and trust that God will come in and change their hearts." SHOW NOTES cont.

Sheila Gregoire joins Amber to discuss some of the harmful messages many popular Christian books have put out when it comes to sex, intimacy, and a man's need versus a woman's need.  We also discuss her new book The Great Sex Rescue. Questions Sheila and I Discuss: (3:34) Tell us a little about The Bare Marriage survey and what led you to embark on such a survey. (6:05) What would you say is one of the most damaging, widely held beliefs about sex and marriage in evangelical culture that is actually preventing us from fully engaging in sex as God intended? (12:15) Let's talk about sex and intimacy. What are the dangers of using those terms interchangeably? (13:58) We're teaching young boys and young girls to it basically places blame back on young girls, you be modest. Because if you're not, you're causing him to be tempted and to lust. What's the mixed message there? (18:02) In The Bare Marriage survey was "I didn't want to be naked in front of him" common response that may be related to the popular modesty discussion? (23:16) What needs to be the message we share with young Christian kids and young Christian adults to shift their mindset from what sex is intended for, compared to their previous experience or what they were taught in youth group? (26:16) Share about the dangers of duty sex. (31:03) Talk about communication between spouses being the key to good sex.   (36:05) You say that the harmful beliefs you measured are common beliefs in the evangelical world, but you wouldn't necessarily call them Christian beliefs. What would you say ARE Christian beliefs about sex? (38:27) What do you hope The Great Sex Rescue accomplishes for Christians and their view of sex? Quotes to Remember: "All kinds of these books [Christian marriage books] talk about sex in terms of men's release, something that men need and that is just not the way the Bible talks about it....When we see it as something that men need, and women don't, then we can easily think all that's important during sex is that he gets release, and our experience doesn't even matter." "I think that's why God uses sexual imagery to talk about His relationship with us. It's to tell us that sex is not just physical. It's a deep, intimate knowing, it's when you become totally vulnerable with one another in every way, and that is God's design for sex." "We know from the Song of Solomon, that sex is also something which is really pleasurable for both people. It was never meant just for a man's release. It was meant for a woman's pleasure, as well."

I did Beth Moore Bible studies because again, I'm Southern Baptist, that's what we do, at least back in the 90s." "But I knew back in the 90s, that I wanted to bring the message that God is good and that Christians aren't stuffy." "I knew that I wanted to embody the humor that God had given me and bring it in front of people. I could be funny, and still honor the Lord." "There is danger in putting a cap on your own gift. If God has uniquely equipped you, and you feel the calling to step on to whatever stage that is, whether it's your local church, or a Facebook Live, step out in full authority, keeping your eyes firmly fixed on Jesus." "If you never ask the answer's no." "My favorite tour ever was the Encounter Tour with Lysa TerKeurst. And the reason that's my favorite is that's my baby. I created it." "I've watched people all of a sudden, believe in their own fame. And it here's why it happens because they've not given somebody authority in their life, to speak into them." "We have to stop worshipping people." "We push them up on the pedestal. Then, when we knock them off or they knock themselves off, because they do knock themselves off. We sit around and applaud." "What I love about working with Compassion is we release children from poverty in Jesus name." "Compassion works through the local church and it's only through the local church." SHOW NOTES cont.

Heather Creekmore joins Amber to discuss negative body image, how we make body image an idol, and the greatest transformation story of all–salvation. Body Image Questions Heather and I Discuss: (3:59) You are a follower of Jesus who speaks to the spiritual root issues of body image.  What is your personal journey with body image struggles? (7:19) What happened when you realized I have body image struggles and I am going to do something about it? (11:17) Like so many Christians you didn’t experience body image help by hearing “just love your body because God does” or “focus on how you are fearfully and wonderfully made”, so what did help you shift your mindset and begin seeing your body in a positive way? (16:07) In your book Compared to Who you contrast the modern concept of self-esteem with what the Bible says about loving God, our neighbors and ourselves. Will you share a bit of that contrast with our listeners? SHOW NOTES cont. Quotes to Remember from Heather Creekmore | Body Image: “By the time I got to college, I was feasting and fasting consistently.” “That’s when He showed me that I was chasing a body image idol and that was the spiritual root of my issues.” “I think what happens too often, even in the church, is that we take Scripture, and we turn it into self esteem mantras.” “God did make us for a purpose. We are his masterpiece. We’re the imago dei. We’re made in the image of God. But if we turn all the focus on us, as we remember that it’s almost as foolish as looking at the Mona Lisa and praising the Mona Lisa instead of praising Da Vinci.” “If you are a believer and following Jesus, He’s given us a before and after story that is so much more awesome than losing some weight or transforming our bodies.” Related Episodes: 111: Aging With Grace | Sharon W.

Questions Trillia and I Discuss: (3:31) Share with our listeners a bit of your faith journey.  When did you come to know Jesus?

(7:38) Your writing is multi-generational and as a mom of 3 young children I am grateful for that.  Your newest book Creative God. Colorful Us. is written with the elementary age child in mind.  How do you break down for elementary age kids the idea that they are made in the image of God?  (11:54) What impact does being made in the image of Adam have on our relationships? continued Quotes to Remember from Celebrating God's Creativity: "God is creating a people of every tribe, tongue, nation, in His image, everyone, every person, whether they know Jesus or not, bears the image of God." "Over and over again, in the Scriptures, you see God calling people to Himself, from every tribe, tongue and nation." "We are made in the image of God to reflect Him in His character. So these would be communicable attributes. He is kind, we can be kind, He is loving, we can be loving....I am helping people see that we have, by His grace and kindness, the ability to reflect Him, but not only the ability, we bear that witness whether we even know it or not, that any good thing is really from the Lord."

He was born to fly in the jungle. And he loved what he did." "Martin just knew how to get a loaded Cessna down on a short jungle strip and get it stopped in the next few hundred feet." "These militant Muslims stormed the resort. There was a banging on the door. Before Martin could even get to the door these three guys within M-16's broke the door in and one took him right out. One of them came over to the bed and lowered his weapon at me and yelled, 'Go go go!'. And I said, 'No, no, no, I'm not dressed properly.'. They took me out to after I put on what I'd worn to the beach that night.""At the very beginning, they told Martin we will deal with you last. You'll be political prisoners." "For the most part, we hiked. We moved all the time, because we were trying to stay in front of the Philippine military who were trying to rescue us." "Every once in a while, we would come to a place where we thought we were safe....and we would spend weeks. During those days [we were] totally bored. We were either exhausted or we were bored and witnessing the atrocities." "This huge gun battle, number 17 (we've been through 16 of these before), this Rambo style shooting up the camp... and before I could hit the ground...I was shot in the leg and kind of slid down the slick grass....I came to rest beside Martin and I looked over at him and he was bleeding from his chest. I knew from experience that leg wounds might heal, but chest wounds don't." SHOW NOTES cont.

Questions Caroline and I Discuss: (1:59) At age 11, a defining event took place in your life.  Will you share about that portion of your childhood, the illness you experienced, and a little about that defining event? (8:14) You knew you would never have biological children, but when did you begin to grieve that reality and what was that season like? (11:35) Did you grow up in a family of faith? Were your parents Christians?  How was God in your life at that time in middle school? Through high school, did you continue to think, "Maybe God doesn't love me?" Or were you a typical high schooler and just basically, ignoring what happened? (18:15) What happened in your 20s that triggered everything to come crashing down?  (25:07) For a woman that can carry the label of barren, God has filled your life with children.  What drew you and your husband to begin foster parenting?

(41:26) In regards to child welfare, is there anything you would like to see the body of Christ do better? Quotes to Remember: "[M]y pediatrician came back into town and read my chart....[H]e called an OB GYN who did some exams on me and did exploratory surgery and when they opened me up, my uterus was completely full of infection.... The infection was leaking into my bladder....[T]hey realized they had to do a hysterectomy, because my uterus was so expanded with infection that if it ruptured, it would have killed me instantly." "I knew from the very minute I woke up from surgery, that I couldn't have kids....I didn't fully understand the impact of it because I was only 11, but I immediately started to internalize feeling lesser than." "I think there was two sides to me....My nickname when I was young was little trooper.... so in my head, I'm like, I'm a trooper, I'm just gonna be strong, because that's what I have to be is strong....But I really thought I would never be loved by someone. Who would want a wife that couldn't have babies."

Episode: Land Entitlement Process for Multi Family Development with Reed Guest: Reed Goossens is the host of the popular podcast “Investing in the U.S.” and also author of the book by the same name. Reed was an engineer with experience in large scale development including infrastructure for the London Olympics in 2012. He now focuses on buying, building, & operating large multi-family assets throughout the U.S. Big Idea: “Even though a lot of institutional dollars have started to become big, big players in the game-we’re still selling to a group that is more entrepreneurial like we are. We left meat on the bone” Reed describes being able to sell the deal for MORE money than if he were to complete the renovation on the other 70% of the units. A better bang for the buck by NOT finishing the deal. This Episode of The REI Diamonds Show is Sponsored by the Deal Machine.

He sounded like he was probably in his late 60s or early 70s. So he had this nice solid multifamily career and he was looking back and he said that around the area now from what he is hearing, like the big names Blackstone and these are private equity Wall Street types. They are not afraid of the floating rates. They do not think that rate risk is going to be a realistic threat certainly at any point in time 2, 5, 7, or 10-year term that these big smart money investors are supposed to be doing business. So he kind of shared the same sentiment as you and just did not view that as much of a risk. I mean, who knows who is right. So 12 deals in what? What is your exit strategy? Do you end up selling these at any point? Have you sold any of the deals that you have done or are you still in hold periods on everything? Reed: No, good question. We start our first deals were in 2000, 2016, early 2017. I have been involved in multifamily as a Co-GP prior to that. So probably 2 or 3 years prior to that early 2014 I got started, but I really started my own shop at the end of 2016. So I have been into the 8 years in syndication space and then in terms of your exit strategies, yes, we are actually coming to exit a couple of deals right now, and they are the deals that have the most flexibility on the debt, right? The deal we just spoke about that it was speaking to you back and previously in 2018. I cannot exit that deal because I have gone over big prepay, right? Unless someone to come and assume the deal, the deal is not sucking wind by any means of making money from my investors, making cash flow. So just keep it, we write out the prepay, but we have another two sets of deals. The billboard as a portfolio and we have to bridge on those deals and we have had them for about two and a half years now. We are going to, we sort of popped your head up thinking, okay, we can refile here or we can sell. We popped her head up and did a bit of an off-market type of shop around and we have got the number we wanted to hit and for this time period they give a good pretty solid return for investors and we decided to execute on the sale. If no one had taken bit at the number we wanted, then we would have gone for a refile, but the opportunity to exit at missable points along the deal is exactly what we assess every single day on over to go but on a very consistent basis to understand where the markets out and particularly with cap rate compression, compressing as interest rates continue to go lower that is you seen that shock wave across the country in terms of multifamily particularly in our area of Central Texas. So yes, we constantly look at what is the best opportunity to exit for deal for investors. A little bit selfishly, we as a company, myself, my business partner Andrew and I, as we are growing to 12 and hopefully going to go double the portfolio in the next 3 to 5 years, people are starting to ask. Where is your schemes on the wall, where your runs on the board, and that is where you go to start pointing to the cycle deals, and how would it go, what was the returns, and we are really happy to say that we have finally come into the first set of deals that are selling and got to make a nice healthy little profit for all our investors involved?

I didn't understand why the physical abuse happened and why she let all this stuff happen. And so from the time I was seven to 14 when I went to a children's home, the definition of my life was absolute turmoil." "I was there [children's home] for about 30 minutes....She said, 'Has anybody told you today that they love you?' And I just looked at her and said, 'No, ma'am.' She said, 'Well, I'm Mom McGowan, and I love you.'." Show Notes CONT.

"My friend Lisa Whittle, taught me the phrase, We need to lock eyes with God'....when I take a break from social media, it's usually because I have no longer locked eyes with Him. I have started looking around at what other people are doing." "I get up in the mornings and want to do a million different things when what I need to do is to first be alone with the Lord.

This Episode of The REI Diamonds Show is Sponsored by the Deal Machine.  This Software Enables Real Estate Investors to Develop a Reliable & Low Cost Source of Off Market Deals.  For a Limited Time, You Get Free Access at http://REIDealMachine.com/ Gregg & I Discuss: Why Invest in Jacksonville, Florida Real Estate Turn Key Rental Properties Offer Easy Scale Build to Rent-Brand New Assets Why a “Focused Approach” Beats a “New Markets Approach”   Investing in Jacksonville, Florida Turn Key Rental Properties-Podcast Episode Highlights What are Turn Key Rental Properties? Why Should I Invest? Gregg Cohen, founder of JWB Real Estate, joins us on the show today to discuss turn key investment properties. Real Estate investors in the olden days were limited to investing in their local market-where they could physically manage the tenants, repairs, and any other issues that arise from owning property long term. In today's world, with the internet and property managers like JWB who offer fully renovated houses with tenants in place, out of state, or even out of the country owners can enjoy cash flow in any real estate market. With so many markets available, let's talk about why I like Jacksonville, Florida, and the reason I sought to invite Gregg onto the show. How to Scale a Real Estate Investment Portfolio: My main business is buying & selling houses as quickly as I can. Sometimes completing renovations, sometimes selling nearly as-is, with only minor cosmetics done after we buy the property. Even though I close close to 300 deals per year, when it comes to passive income, I prefer buying turnkey investment properties. I also have no issue with long distance ownership. The bottom line is that I can scale quickly when turnkey companies are placing tenants and managing the details for me. The extent of my involvement is the heavy lifting on the front end to actually close the purchase: the loan application, signing documents, and providing the 20% down payment. Why Invest in the Jacksonville, Florida Real Estate Market? The Jacksonville, Florida real estate market is attractive to me first for location. There are jobs and population from all over the U.S. migrating to Florida, and Jacksonville's pricing hasn't gotten detached from wages. Normally I prefer market's with 5 Million people or more living in the metro area, but Jacksonville has about 1.5 million. Even though it's smaller than I'd normally prefer, Jacksonville is among the fastest growing large cities in the US. Why Does the Age of a Home Impacts the Value and Maintenance Cost? On this episode, Gregg and I also discuss his brand new construction homes which are built to rent. Turn key rental property investing normally focuses on existing houses: buy a house, renovate a house, then rent to a tenant, before selling the house with tenant to an investor like me. JWB actually began buying lots and building brand new homes for the same purpose: to provide investors with a brand new turnkey rental investment. One note-I have since attempted buying the brand new offering only to find out that they are in very short supply. Somewhat disappointed... Anytime I consider buying a turnkey rental property, the biggest variable, after location, which affects price is the current condition. I love the idea of a new home-since the entire house is new. That's not usually an option, so I evaluate the home based on it's current condition. Unless you're an expert in construction, the best bet is usually buying recently renovated turnkey real estate investments from the property management company who actually completed the renovation. You still need to to due diligence on the company, the house, & the market before you close the deal. Many of the houses I've bought "turn key" were simply occupied rentals bought from mom & pop landlords. In those instances, I expect a risky tenant, many repair issues, and a significantly below market price to account for the risk. I understand that long term, my maintenance costs will be very high-when compared to a turnkey investment property purchased through a full service turnkey rental property provider, such as JWB real estate.

David & I Discuss: How to Find Off Market Deals How to Build Your Best Lead List How Price & Competition in affects Your R.O.I   How to Find Motivated Sellers-Real Estate Podcast with David Lecko David Lecko, founder of the Deal Machine app, joins us on the REI Diamond Show to discuss How to Find Motivated Sellers using techniques including driving for dollars, direct marketing to absentee owners and other sellers with distressed property. The Deal Machine is a driving for dollars app that allows users to simply enter a property address while driving through a specific neighborhood, which then processes the public record for the mailing address and triggers a sequence of direct mail to the property owner. In addition to the Deal Machine design and use case, David & I also discuss a few common questions investors have when seeking the best deals in real estate. How to Find the Best Deals in Real Estate?   The best deals for a real estate investor to buy are distressed homes. In other word, you have to find deals on houses that need renovations. This is the real estate investors function in in society-to find distressed properties, purchase those properties, and complete a renovation. The end result is a renewal of the neighborhood. We should identify what is meant by a "good deal" for real estate investors. Anyone buying a distressed property needs to know their numbers: What is the repair budget needed to renovate the property, what is the property worth when complete, and how much can I pay the current property owner for this house and still make a profit? The key here is PROFIT. The best deals in real estate investing are done directly with property owners who are motivated to sell. This means they are motivated to sell for some reason, perhaps the condition of the house is very poor, or they have to sell very quickly to meet a deadline, or maybe their tenant has stopped paying rent and is squatting in the house. Whatever the reason, the motivated seller has decided they absolutely must sell their property. So how does one find these motivated sellers?   Well, by marketing directly to them, of course. Investors & real estate agents often market directly to sellers they believe may have a motivation to sell. While bulk you can purchase a bulk list of motivated seller leads, such as a delinquent tax list from list providers such as PropStream, David describes the higher value of developing a list of much more specific properties by driving for dollars. What is driving for dollars and how does it work?  Driving for Dollars is exactly what it sounds like. You're driving neighborhoods looking for distressed houses that would make a good deal for two reasons: the house needs work and the owner might be interested in selling their home. You can use the Deal Machine to track your route, instantly upload photos along with those specific addresses, as well as trigger your real estate marketing right from the road. Then anytime you need another deal, you simply trigger another round of mail to the leads in your Deal Machine App What’s the Best Way to Find Motivated Seller Leads for Real Estate?  David's favorite method of finding motivated seller leads is to hire a team of hourly reps to continuously drive neighborhoods and add leads to his Deal Machine of distressed properties. You can quickly copy this scale strategy of driving for dollars by hiring your own team of drivers.
