118: [TAKING ACTION] 30 Deals First Year

Flipping Junkie Podcast with Danny Johnson

In a few short years time, Henry found himself transitioning from a single lifestyle- where he only had to worry only about himself- into a married man trying to provide for his family. That’s why one year ago, Henry Washington decided that taking action and pursuing his real estate investment journey was the next step, and it’s been a whirlwind ever since.

Even with a full-time day job in IT Project Management, Henry was unsure how we was going to be able to take care of his family. Desperate, he began looking into his options and decided that the financial freedom that comes with real estate investing was the best option for him. Still though, the fear of spending it all for nothing in return kept him from making the first leap. This fear was essentially keeping him from taking action to achieve his dreams. “We wouldn’t have had as much success that we’d had if my mindset wasn’t in the right place,” says Washington.

Entirely unsure of where to even start, Henry starting taking action and began by reading books and listening to the FlippingJunkie podcast. This education led him to the decision to take action again and create his own real estate investment website using LeadPropeller. After first taking action, in his first year alone, he has acquired roughly 30 deals, including flips, wholesales, and rentals and his business only continue to grow. Listen along as Henry and Danny discuss taking action and how Henry was able to get over those fears with creative problem solving, the first steps he took to get into the industry, and how he’s expanding his clientele and establishing credibility and trust in his area through networking and maintaining relationships!
