We spent the last couple days in Boston at a Pensco Trust Company symposium learning about all sorts of different alternative investments that can be made using a self-directed IRA. There’s so much you can do with your IRA beyond just buying stocks, bonds and mutual funds. Did you know you can buy and sell property within [...]
Wow, it was bitterly cold today. The high was 16 but the wind was whipping at 30 mph so it sent a chill right through you…. it was almost unbearable. Even my little snowdog Teddy couldn’t take it. Usually when I let him out to do his business in the morning he plays in the snow or [...]
So, it’s a few days before christmas, and it seems like everybodys on vacation this week…. but not us, we’ve been busy closing two deals over the last two days. The first deal was the purchase of a 2 family rehab located on Leete St in Springfield. I don’t have any pictures of this property but I’ll be getting some [...]
I posted a video of this property last week but I wanted to post a couple pictures to show you what we’re up against at this house. I’m amazed that it wasn’t condemned…. actually if the city knew just how bad it was inside I’m pretty sure it would have been condemned. It’s not the worst house [...]

Monday was a day of firsts for our business…. We closed on our first ever deal bought from a wholesaler, the English Tudor on Wexford St I wrote about in my last post. We put this house under contract last week on Tuesday and closed yesterday (the following Monday). Also it looks like we are going to be [...]
We put a new house under contract on Tuesday morning with a closing scheduled for the following Monday. Thats four days to get the cash together, pull title and close it…. Dominics’ going to be busy!! This is a probate deal that we are purchasing from another wholesaler. It’s not a homerun but I fell in love with [...]
