About 6 weeks ago I was on the internet surfing trying to get a hard money loan for a property that I have in Pennsylvania which I had for about 2 years and I couldn’t do anything with it. I tried by having a contractor go in and give me a price to rehab it which we agreed on and he was supposed to finish the job in three months and put a tenant in there for me and then manage it. This never happened, instead what did happen was he took my money and never did anything. During that process I bought another property in the same town based off his advice before I found out he wasn’t doing anything on the first house, and the plan was for him to rehab that one as well. None of this got done. While surfing I end up speaking to a guy on the phone from Xpress Loans 911 by the name of Alex. He took my application but explained to me that the location and the criteria of the property did not fit their portfolio. But as we kept talking I noticed he really was concerned for my well-being and he started giving me advice on my options and what to do with the property.
As a result of staying in touch with him I was able to put the house under contract, make some connections with sellers and buyers for the future, learn about different techniques to use in the future and potentially have the second property going into contract pretty soon.
In a little less than two months with Alex’s advice I’m able to clean up two years worth of a mess that I accumulated from lack of experience. I’m waiting for the title to clear on my first contract and then looking to do the same within the next couple weeks on the 2nd one. Thanks to the gentleman from Xpress Loans 911.
