Our thoughts are with everyone in Houston and surrounding areas impacted by Hurricane Harvey. You are in our prayers today. The “Thankful” Journal. 28 days. 10 things per day. Dianna Her beauty. Of course it’s the first thing anyone notices about her. She is stunning to see and even after all these years of being together she still catches me staring at her. When she asks, “what?” I just shrug my shoulders. The truth is, I’m constantly amazed that a lady this fine agreed to go out with me. Her smile lights up a room and can melt ice (as well as my heart). Her character. She will do the right thing. She will do it when it’s inconvenient. She will do it even knowing it will cost her. Her devotion to honor is a rare quality. Her personal discipline. I have seen her decide to go on a specific diet or “meal plan”. She will not vary, she will not cheat - not even a mouthful. Her workout routine is legendary and no matter what else is going on in her life, she will take the time to get her diet and exercise right and in so-doing has encouraged a more steady application of the same in my own life. Her sense of “industry”. She rises early -- waaaaay early. She does this in order to get her workout and personal time done before she begins her work day at 7:30 am. Wow, who has to be at the office by 7:30? But wait, she works from HOME and doesn’t have regular office hours. She could start at 10 or 11 some days and still get everything done. That means she could stay up at night, sleep in, hit the gym at mid-morning and so forth. But she doesn’t. Why? Because she wants to get her work completed responsibly and turn her attention to --- more work. Her maternal instincts. Her children adore her and are totally devoted to her. My children love and respect her. Why? Because in her mom role she has always provided, nurtured, corrected, developed and as they grew older -- over her own reluctance -- released them to adulthood. She let them go, valuing their independence over her inevitable loneliness, but even now as healthy self-supporting adults they love her more than ever. Her reliability. Need something done? Call Dianna. Need someone to show up on time? Ask Dianna. Do you want someone who will complete the task in front of her on time and on budget? Give it to Dianna. Do you need a faithful friend who will stand with you through good times and bad, when you are weak, in pain, in search of a steady accepting, non-judging friend? I’ve seen her in this role many times. She is a friend and a person you can always count on. Her generosity. Her first instinct is to give to someone in need (including animals). One of her driving motivations is a quiet outreach she plans for single moms. You’ll never read about it in the papers or online because that’s not her style. But people are blessed by her presence and her generosity. Her discernment. Anyone who gets hired in my companies at some point will meet her before the hiring decision is made. Almost no candidate knows this is anything more than a social introduction. The fact is, she has a reliable built-in BS detector. Call it intuition if you want, but I believe it is much more. She pays attention to details, verbal and non-verbal cues and her surroundings like few others. Her love. She is a person of few words. If you are one of the lucky individuals who actually get to know her, you will find that she has a passion and intensity inside her that is an unquenchable fire. This inner passion ultimately guides all her other qualities and directs her daily decisions. And although she moves through her days with ease, grace, and few words, I can see that fire in her eyes and with a small glance in my direction I FEEL that intensity wrapping around me and holding me close. To be loved - to feel loved like this changes the way I see the world and although a stubborn man of bad habits, has changed me and made me a better person. These are ten -- I believe I could produce a hundred more. Proverbs 31 Interview Guest: Jennifer Hammonds, YAAAAAAY!

Our thoughts are with everyone in Houston and surrounding areas impacted by Hurricane Harvey. You are in our prayers today. Trends: Questions@flippingamericaradio.com Tell us where you’re from! How to think strategically about overpriced markets. Consider your exit plan. If you are flipping, just do your thing. Deals may be harder to find, but quicker to sell Do not intentionally do marginal deals. You may have to let the cruel world of reality thin the herd of investor wanna-bes. Learn the art of remote flipping and even remote rentals. If holding, think very carefully about buying in a market where prices are rising faster than income can keep up. Why? You need to be able to charge enough rent to make the property cash flow properly. People need to be able to afford their rent A correction is on the way. It’s inevitable. When people can no longer afford the prices, they will no longer buy. When demand shrinks, prices will come down. You don’t want to buy at the top. Reality: People live near jobs, education, and opportunity. Find communities with a diversified solid base of employment. Put your eggs in multiple baskets. Different asset types? Different locations definitely. News: Houston Under Water Canada Real Estate in Trouble? Canada Real Estate NOT in trouble. Emails: Questions@flippingamericaradio.com Tell us where you’re from! Scott from Macon, GA “My contractor got started a few days ago and put in for his first draw. I went to the house and noticed that he had already painted all the walls, even though there were still some repairs to be made. His crew even painted one wall that will be removed. When I asked him about it, he said this was just a primer coat and it helped them see the repairs that needed to be made. But it was the chosen wall color, not primer. He told me it didn’t matter what I used for primer - just needed two coats. And he billed me on the draw for ½ of the painting. I’m thinking something doesn’t seem right about this…” Deanne from Pittsburgh, PA. “Is there a database of bad contractors somewhere on the internet? I want to keep people from hiring this guy I just fired. He’s a crook."

News: Blockchain Technology is in the news again. ATLANT Blockchain is a new company designed to make real estate investing accessible to everyone. Because of the open nature of the technology, pricing information, ownership information is available to all. Tokenized ownership Peer to Peer rentals. Implications: The more all the information is available the more efficient the market becomes. It leads to a form of market stability, but also reduces opportunity. Limited discounts Limited opportunity for value-ad or forced appreciation. Won’t happen all at once - won’t happen soon, and will probably always be one of the options - not the only method. The advance of technology - takes away some opportunities - creates others. Demand for apartments easing off. The year over year absorption rate is down 8%.

So anyway - tell us plainly - are you going to upsell us to a $35,000 course too?” In a word, no, but let’s think about it... If you could make 35k per month after paying that, what would the deal look like then? Compare to a franchise… $500k to make $50k per year?? How about switching that around?
