More and more investors and real estate agents are using attorneys and negotiators to get their deals done.

It’s the perfect answer to the “I don’t want to deal with banks and short sales” issue. OR IS IT?

If you are a homeowner trying to get a short sale approved on your home, whether you’re a homeowner or an investor, you might want to think twice about the hands-off negotiations. There are far too many people that over promise and under deliver. Continue Reading

There’s good news and bad news about short sales!

The good news is that if you can follow a checklist, you can submit a short sale package to the lender.

The bad news is that the checklist of documents can be daunting to say the least!

The best advice is to contact the lender prior to submitting your package to get their list in the event they have additional requirements, want specific components on their paperwork/letterhead, etc. Each lender is different, so it pays to take a few minutes up front to get Continue Reading

The key to finding real estate buyers is knowing exactly who you’re trying to pinpoint. The biggest reason investors (and even Realtors®) have a hard time when it comes to finding real estate buyers is that they simply believe in the concept of casting the widest net and hoping for the best.

While this may seem the most logical way to find real estate buyers, it’s actually putting you at a disadvantage. You need to focus on a specific type of buyer so that you can speak directly to his/her wants and needs in the homebuying process.

There are dozens of “types” of real estate buyers our there, but for the sake of STAYING narrow, in this article, we’re going to focus on the first time home buyers. Continue Reading

REO investing is moving faster than a speeding bullet!

With REO properties flooding the market, is it time for you to add them to your real estate investing business?

The simple answer is yes! The fact is, REO properties make up the majority of “REAL DEALS” in this market and you need to be taking advantage of this great opportunity.

Here are 5 reasons REO properties are the way to go!

1. Bank Has Already Taken Loss
   First and foremost, if the property is an REO, then the bank has most likely already gone through a lengthy and expensive foreclosure process and hasn’t seen a nickel on the properties for the last 1 to 2 years. Long story short, they have already conceded and taken the majority of the loss. Their main focus now is to simply get rid of the property as quick as possible.

Last week, I was on a coaching call with one of our students… and the light bulb went off in my head. It was that “ah ha” moment. I finally really understood one of the 3 main reasons people are not successful in real estate: Not Taking Action. Truth is, it’s a huge cause for failure in lots of ‘biz opp’ strategies.

It’s what I’ve since defined as the “outsourcing virus”.

This student wanted to know what he could do to get money coming in NOW.

Here’s what got me thinking… and why so many people are struggling in their businesses.

The student I was talking to had invested tens of thousands of dollars in real estate courses, seminars, and systems. Yet, he was still struggling. (Do you know anyone like that?) Continue Reading

It’s been a year of mixed reviews for many people! Certainly, there were highlights, but many folks are happy to see 2009 ushered out and welcome 2010!
With the New Year – and new decade – there are going to be lots of changes to come in real estate investing, online marketing, information marketing, and business in general.

I know that lots of people are posting their thoughts, predictions, and opinions for the coming year! Here are just a few of my predictions for real estate industry – specifically for investors.

1. Property Values Will Stabilize.
   We’re not going to see a huge change in property values this year. Many of the markets have bottomed out, or are close thereto. However, there is a lot of inventory that has yet to hit the market before we can start to see an increase in value. This will make it easier to evaluate properties and determine the after repair values as there’s less decline to calculate. However, there are still Continue Reading
