Work from home for yourself, Get Junk Free! Sell It For CASH!!!! Where and How?

So Logan and I move back to Cape Coral, Fl from Tampa, Fl. Mainly to learn a computer software program for a friend of mine that was thinking her job might be close to an end she is a speaker for one of the big names in the Real Estate Guru world. She wanted me to learn the system, for prospecting for Real Estate investors, and finding properties for investors, it was called the SIMMS system. The idea was if her job ended it would be a quick move into the RE wholesale business. Its in this system, I learned a few of these tricks I have used to promote this Junk business.

In Tampa we were mainly having large yards sales up, and doing odd jobs to make money. We were getting the stuff to sell from all the foreclosure set outs, and driving around on garbage day.

When we came back to Cape Coral I was on the computer most all day for weeks learning this program. I had a cheap place to stay, however I had Logan in a private school And need to make more money without taking time away from the training. I hesitating about going back into the RE business, I was certain the market was going to crash again.

I was getting a small wage each week, however it was not enough to live on and pay for the schooling. So one day, coming back from lunch, I was driving down the street and I see this like new couch on the street in front of an expensive house, I could not believe the condition. I pulled over, was shocked to see both the condition and it was still a current style and color. This was confirmed by the speed in which it sold. I put in the back of my Ford explorer, got back to the house and took a picture put it on Craigslist and it sold that afternoon for $100.

So that's more or less the start of this junk business.

I would go out after Logan went to bed, I would leave at 10:00 PM and be back by 12:00 PM, most nights with a trailer and suv full of Junk/stuff to sell.

I got a garbage route map from the city and I drove it picked up stuff, and sold it the next day, sorted and stock piled the metal.

Limited space taught me quick what would sell and what would not. These are things I want to share with you. I learned how to maximize limited space, I wanted to work form home and most of all for myself. This started off as a way to get back into Real Estate. This business is addicting, fun, interesting and profitable.

Below is pictures of stuff we picked up for free or were paid to take away - all things from the last few days...............
