There’s still time to pre-order “Fantastic Deals and Where to Find Them” on Amazon. You can put in bit.ly/RBfantasticdeals or just head over to amazon and search for the title. The paperback will be available possibly by the time you hear this and the kindle version will drop on Sep 30. I tell you how I get thousands of deals in my inbox every week. I don’t hold anything back — and it’s just $3.99. There’s nothing out there like it for the price. We have a piece on our home page about finding deals as well.

- Even if. You have a buyer, advertise it every which way, you’ll pick up buyers for the next properties.
- Filthy riches, what I’m doing with the small houses.
- If the property is fit and safe, (except TX) do a lease option.
