(or I'll fill out the order myself and forge your name) A.J.
As long as you fill out the check from your bank too... LOL
As for the order, we were thinking that the money that would be spent on that would be good to have sitting with the rest in investments for a year. Then I can order the car and already made money off what I was going to spend. I dunno, we're going to talk to our financial planner as soon as I get the check and we'll figure out what to do then. They're pretty adamant about me getting the car though, so good news for Brian!!! LOL
As for the trip, little update...
Went down and met with the buyer & seller. Seller I have met before when I went down to list the properties and get everything photographed and all that good stuff. Buyer's a really cool guy. Anyway, we went and looked at all these properties and his mouth was on the floor the whole time. He signed that he was pleased and accepted the ranches as is. He also is getting on contract for another 851 acre property for wind energy production for another $2.5M as well as the condo we were staying at for $652,000. He's actually still staying there. It's on South Padre Island about 1/4 mile from the Schlitterbahn water park and right on the beach. It's on the 22nd floor and is absolutely insane. 2400 sq ft, 2br, 2ba, balconies off the master and living room, overlooking the inter-coastal waterway and the gulf (one on each side of the condo). Anyway, it was a great trip and I had a $2,667,000 check in my hand 3 days ago. That was the earnest money on the $26.67M deal. So, I'd say things are working out.
Oh, another thing that happened while I was there. The buyer and I were talking one night over beers and he asked what it would take for me to sell & buy real estate in Florida. I told him it's just a matter of getting my state license there because I already passed my national tests. He said he would pay for all my expenses and fly me to Florida to get all that taken care of. He has some business he's doing there and likes the way I have held this deal together and helped everyone out and he wants to use me exclusively for all his real estate business. He's looking at quite a few properties there as well as here in Texas. Then the seller told me that he wants to use me for an upcoming $90M deal he's going to tie up once this whole sale is done with. :shocked: Needless to say I'm pretty excited.
Anyway, that's where I've been and what I've been doing.
What did I miss here?
Laters,
Brian
