I have not kept my end of the deal, with writing every day. I could weasel out and say its because there isn't enough to write about, but in fact, its because there has been so much going on -- so much to think about and act on.
We keep looking through properties, and I feel like after each great deal that we find, there is another one. It looks like New Haven has been hit much worse than NJ with the whole sub-prime mortgage crisis.
Tonight, we found many properties that we are going to look more closely at. I am so excited to go up to New Haven this weekend.
Today at work, I mentioned to one of the plumbers who I call a lot, Ameer, about moving to New Haven. He was very sweet, in saying that he was sorry to see me go, but offered to help with anything I may need up there, in terms of rehabing or estimates. He is a really great guy, and we talk often about family matters.
He then mentioned that one of the plumbers who works for him, David, has connections in New Haven because of family living in the area, and that he was up there all the time and could help us out if anything ever came up.
David then called his uncle, who is connected to the New Haven government and local community. His uncle (Tio) and I spoke for a while and are going to get together, not this weekend, but the weekend after, when we go up to New Haven. He seems to be a wealth of information and I am looking forward to speaking with him at length.
This reconfirms Paul's outlook, on telling as many people as possible, what you are up to, because you never know who may know what, or in this case, who. I feel so lucky to have a group of people around me who is there to help me succeed. It is a great feeling to have support in this process.
