You Want Me to Buy That House? You Gotta Be Kidding!

HI,
I am Dr. Linne Bourget, and lately the story of how I bought my first house has been on my mind.

Having never bought a house before, I was clueless when I started. Have you been through this? If you have bought your first house, weren't you nervous? Buying your first home is one of those items the stress experts list as one of the biggest sources of stress.

When I had to buy mine, and quickly, it was before the internet, so all the great information we take for granted now was unavailable! To make matters even scarier, I was swamped with consulting work and had no time to do the research I usually do when facing something new. How in the world could I figure out what to buy? Have you been in this situation?

Starting out with an agent who knew the neighborhood, hoping at lest one of us would know what she was doing, we found an adorable little house on a hill with 3 bedrooms and 2 baths, a split level. I fell in love with it instantly. Have you fallen in love with a house?

Then the trouble started. Because I was clueless about real estate, my intuition was essential. The Master Intuition System I had developed for business clients worked well in my business, and since desperation was the mother of innovation in this case, I asked my intuition about the little house.

The news was not good. My intuition said not to buy the house, that it was too small and I would be crowded there. What a disappointment! I loved the little house. But I knew better than to ignore my intuition, and kept looking. Then the agent showed me, get this, a five-bedroom house! I could not believe it! What in the world would I do with five bedrooms?
What was she drinking?!! Have your emotions led you to buy a house that wasn't right for you?

After much stewing, I asked my intuition about the larger house. My intuition gave a huge yes, which worried me. This house needed lots of work and I had no time to do it! But I know better than to ignore my intuition, so we put an offer in on a Friday night, which was accepted. That Sunday, they had an open house and many other offers would have come in!

We got it in the nick of time!

This house turned out to be the perfect house for me and my company and my four-footed office assistant, Sam the Magic Cat. In my wildest dreams I could not have imagined using five bedrooms, but we needed them all! And the location, in the woods with the lovely trees, was ideal, a healing space much needed with my hectic and demanding business!

And as a special bonus, this house turned out to be very profitable when I sold it, despite selling it an a very bad down market where neighbors lost tens of thousands of dollars and had their homes on the market for months and months. We had a contract in 6 weeks!

Now I was a believer in using intuition for real estate profits. The most powerful lesson: Intuition can help you navigate your way through your emotions for greater real estate profits, if you know how to work with it! How can you separate intuition and emotions? Stay tuned....

Intuition For Real-Estate Profits

Hi,

Would you like to learn what intuition has taught me and how I made over $600,000 in my first four real estate deals!?

I am Dr. Linne Bourget and I never thought in my wildest dreams I would be investing in real estate. In no way was this part of my plan, and beyond that, I never planned on using my Master Intuition System, created for corporate clients to profit from selling my own homes.

But, as we all know, life is what happens while you are busy making other plans! In the late 1980's I was swamped with consulting work and needed to buy a house fast. Lenders would not give me a mortgage as I was a single female entrepreneur starting a business. I had excellent credit, but had never had a mortgage before. Not only was I desperate for a home as a healing retreat from the stresses of my work, I needed tax deductions also.

The problem was I knew nothing about real estate. Yes, I mean nothing. And even worse, I had no time to learn. How could I navigate the mysteries of buying a house and later having to sell it to move to another city? This was indeed overwhelming and remember, there was no internet with all the great real estate and financing information we have now.

Well as you know, desperate time call for desperate measures. I started using my Master Intuition System to help me out with real estate and low and behold, it proved very successful. I had already had 8 years experience with my System with client projects, so that gave me confidence to apply it to real estate.

For my very first home, intuition guided my to let go of the little house that I fell in love with and buy a larger home than I could ever have imagined I'd need. As a result, I lived in the perfect place and made a much better profit selling it than I would have with the smaller home I had fallen in love with but not bought. Also, intuition helped me make $50,000 profit on my first house sale when my neighbors were losing tens of thousands of dollars on their homes. They had houses on the market for months, but mine sold in 6 weeks, and this was in a very bad down market.

Over time, I applied intuition to all of my real estate deals, my own homes and my investments. Not only did I make more profits and have mroe harmonious homes to live in, but my intuition kept me out of a lot of trouble.

In the next few months, I will be putting up a website to offer the Master Intuition System and several stories of my real estate deals in great detail to illustrate how the System works.

What intuition has taugh me is that all of us have more wisdom inside of us than we have any idea of. If you have a reliable System, you can tap into your inner wisdom, your inner real estate partner to guide you through the challanges of real estate. This will be a home study System, with a workbook, many examples of questions to ask your intuition, and audo CDs to listen to in your car. One CD will be a radio interview about how I deveolped my Master Intuition System for business. The interviewer did a fabulous job and amazed me with how much he fit into one hour.

Interested? Email us and we will make sure to notify you when this System is available.

You can take the fear out of real estate and enjoy the process and profits much more when you have access to your inner real estate partner. I am eager to share with you what intuition has taught me and how I made over $600,000 in my first four deals!

Wishing you peace and profits,

Dr. Linne Bourget
