The Carrot? Or the Stick? Which Do YOU Prefer?

By Tony Pearl on April 30, 2017
Tony Pearl

In this article, we’re going to discuss something vitally important that may very well help you understand a LOT about yourself and everyone around you on this planet.  Yes, that includes dealing with sellers, buyers, private lenders, and even those alien creatures we love to call tenants. Also-your mother, brother, father, sister, sons and daughters, uncles, best friends and distant relatives.

So You might NOT want to read this article... Unless you want to discover the secrets behind the reasons WHY people DO or DON’T Do the things they do...or don’t do.

It all comes down to TWO things. The Carrot and the Stick.

The CARROT represents something GOOD that we WANT, while the STICK represents something BAD that we DON’T want.  Read More >>


The Power of Networking

By Frank Iglesias on April 30, 2017
Frank Iglesias

Networking is perhaps the most underestimated resource every single investor has.  I am constantly amazed at how in a world as interconnected as it is, I am constantly seeing how little we leverage each other to get more deals done.  I sat recently and wondered why and came to some conclusions:

There are probably several reasons we can come up with that aren’t written down here.  The point is all of these above and more keep us from simply reaching out to others, much less doing business with them.  Take for example social media.  Read More >>

Wholesale Renegade Workshop with Mr Tycoon on April 29, 2017

By Savannah REIA on April 24, 2017
Sat, April 29th @ 9AM in Atlanta, GA
Wholesale Renegade Workshop
A Full Day Workshop with Mr. Tycoon
April 29 from 9AM - 5PM at
3125 Presidential Pkwy, Atlanta, GA
Early Registration Special.
Register Now & Save $100 to $200!

Mr. TycoonAre you interested in Wholesaling Houses for quick cash? Perhaps you don't know what wholesaling is... so let me quickly explain…Hi, my name is Mr. Tycoon and I am a full time real estate investor who specializes in finding Wholesaling deals. On Saturday, April 29, 2017 from 9AM to 5PM at 3125 Presidential Pkwy, Atlanta, GA, I am teaching a Wholesale Renegade Workshop to teach you how you can wholesale houses for quick cash. Register Now!

Wholesaling is the process of finding great deals, getting that deal under contract, and then selling that contract to another person who actually ends up buying the property. It can seem a little confusing at first, but it's really quite simple. You are simply selling the contract. You never own the property, never fix the property up, and never deal with tenants.

A lot of new investors really like the idea of wholesaling. And what's not to love? It can be done with very little money, credit, or experience but has the potential to make a lot of money. Plus, I’ve done over 1,000 of these types of deals and have trained hundreds of people just like you to do the same. One thing is required on your part… to “Do The Work!”

I will teach you everything I know and what me and My Mentees are doing in the market today. So, when you attend this One Day Wholesale Renegade Workshop, you will leave with the Full Knowledge and Action Plan to Jump Start your Real Estate Career.

What you’ll learn at the Wholesale Renegade Workshop…:

So what happens if you DON'T use private lenders? Well, you're stuck with the amount of money that you have or are able to borrow from traditional or hard money lenders. And sooner or later you'll run out of money. You'll have to pass on a lot of good deals, because you don't have the money. Line up your lenders now, so you can take advantage of those good deals when you find them.

The agenda for the day will look like this…

Clearly, there is a lot more to Wholesaling than just putting an ad up on Craigslist and collecting a 5-figure paycheck. So, to help, I've created this One Day Wholesale Renegade Workshop to help you Jump-start your Wholesaling Business and your Real Estate Investing Business!

Mental Gems – When A Little Is A Lot!

By Wahid Shakur on March 31, 2017
Wahid Shakur

This month I am sharing some Mental Gems that I know would be of great use to you. It has to do with the misconception that…BIGGER is BETTER and/or Quantity over Quality.

Just this past month I was speaking with one of my platinum students in Dallas, TX.  We were discussing his marketing when I shared this view with him to make a clear point.  You see, he was having a problem that most of us have at one point or another in our investing career.  We begin to doubt that we are doing enough and start to believe that we need to do a LOT more because the deals are not knocking the door down.  You see, one thing that we have to be clear on is the understanding that the deals will come as long as we are consistent in our marketing!  Read More >>


Be 100% There!

By Bill Cook on March 31, 2017
Bill Cook

How important is it, when meeting with a seller, buyer, renter, realtor or contractor, to be totally focused on that person?  If you’re not paying complete attention to what that person says and how he or she says it (tone of voice, hand gestures, body position, eye movement), isn’t there a good chance you’ll miss critical information that’s being shared with you?

The number of people who are not 100% there during a meeting has become epidemic – and is a major pet peeve of mine!  If you’re over fifty years old, you already know what I’m talking about.  Baby Boomers grew up without cell phones, emails, and text messages.  Heck, we didn’t even have phone answering machines!

Here’s an example of this epidemic at work.  A real estate investor needed help structuring a deal and asked for an hour of my time.  He drove up from Atlanta and met me at the Adairsville Waffle House. Read More >>


Maximizing Your Profit by Knowing Your Buyer’s Financing Options

By Kimberlee Frank on March 31, 2017
Kimberlee Frank

When making offers on properties as an Investor, you will need to have your exit strategies in place prior to purchasing the property.  What I mean by that is, who is your buyer and what type of financing are you going to allow the buyer to use when you sell the property.  Knowing this will allow you to maximum your profits.

When I look at properties to purchase I always analyze the value of the property and how long I will have to hold the property before I am able to sell the property for a profit.  The comparables that I use are through Realtytrac.com and also the Multiple Listing Service.  Realtytrac will give me the values in the area, however, the Multiple Listing Service “MLS” in addition to values will provide me with how the property was sold ie; Cash, Conventional mortgage, USDA mortgage, VA mortgage or FHA mortgage.  You can normally assume houses under $200,000 that many of the buyers purchasing at this price point are FHA mortgage buyers.  FHA mortgages are mainly used for first-time homebuyers.  The Mortgage Lender requires 3.5% as a down payment which attracts many first-time homebuyers.  Read More >>


Doing Equals Results

By Michael Vazquez on March 31, 2017
Michael Vazquez

A few months ago, I began learning about and got more involved in apartment investing. I wrote about the steps I took to make industry contacts while building credibility. Fast forward to now and my work is definitely paying off. In many ways, the results I was looking for are coming to fruition but there are also other results, that I did not expect, that are appearing as well.

Some results I expected from my efforts were credibility, partnerships, maybe a mentor, an actual deal, financing and much more that will definitely come with patience and more work. At the beginning I thought credibility was going to the hardest part but it was not. Because I had done my homework and took the time to learn this niche, the people who I spoke with respected the dedication. Another surprise was that all my single family investing actually carried some credibility of its’ own into the apartment investment crowd. From many articles, podcasts, videos, etc. I was led to believe that the multifamily crowd looked down on the single family residential (SFR) investors but it simply was/is not true. In fact, while SFR investing is not a prerequisite, there are many ex- SFR investors who invest in multifamily. These are the people that relate to my current situation and have been eager to provide information and guidance. These relationships have grown into discussions around partnerships and potential financing. While I have still not identified an official mentor I am treating all the assistance I am receiving from multiple investors as a mentorship. This also gives me the opportunity to discuss one aspect of apartment investing with multiple investors so I can then try and decipher which information is best for me and/or which information I personally want to apply. While I have not actually found a multifamily deal that I personally like, I have underwritten many properties. Just like SFR investing, it’s a numbers game.  Read More >>


How to “Print” Money for Your Real Estate Investment Business

By Russ Hiner on March 31, 2017
Russ Hiner

I have learned how to get enough money to buy any house, at any time, any place, and any condition. Wouldn’t it be great to have the relationships to be able to do just that? This is not out of reach and it is not very far from where you are sitting right now.

I recently got into a conversation with a fellow Investor at the gym and it went like this:

Russ: How is business?

Gabriel: I am so busy. I have 17 houses (being rehabbed) right now and the one you sold me (two months ago,) I haven’t been able to get to yet.

Russ: This is great. How are you getting them?

Gabriel: From people like you, wholesalers.

Gabriel: What are you doing?  Read More >>


Your Personal Seller, Buyer and Lender Credibility Kit and Why You Need To Have One

By Kathy Kennebrook on March 31, 2017
Kathy Kennebrook

Why do you need a Credibility Kit for your Real Estate Investing business? In fact, what exactly is a Credibility Kit? This is the question I hear most often from students when I am at real estate investing events.

Think about this for a second. Have you ever had a contractor come out to do a bid for you on some work you wanted done, say new cabinets, or siding on your house or new windows?  Do you remember seeing the book they brought with them that showed the photos of jobs they had completed, testimonial letters from satisfied customers and copies of their licensing and insurance? That was their Credibility Kit. Why then as a Real Estate Investor are you not creating this amazing tool for your real estate investing business? This is definitely a tool you will need for your real estate investing business and it’s so easy to create one if you follow a few simple steps.

 Your personal Credibility Kit will not only build credibility and integrity for you with your sellers and lenders, it will give you a serious edge over your competition. Almost none of your competitors know about this incredible tool that makes you look like a true professional in your Real Estate Investing business, whether you are working with sellers or buyers of properties.  Read More >>


Why REO’s?

By Mark Jackson on March 31, 2017
Mark Jackson

We all know that REO is an acronym for Real Estate Owned properties.  Basically, it is a property that has been foreclosed upon and now belongs to the bank or lender. Foreclosure properties have been front page news across America for some time.  I want to discuss REO properties and the best way to profit from these deals. REIAComps is a great way to expose yourself to the true market value of many REO homes in various stages of foreclosure around Atlanta, the state of Georgia and other market areas.

When banks supply foreclosure lists, they also provide the selling prices that they will accept for those properties. Generally, the banks or HUD have the property priced to move, therefore there aren’t a lot of negotiations necessary.  Each property investment is done on a bank-by-bank, house-by-house basis.  Read More >>


Unplugging... To Recharge (Revisited)

By Tony Pearl on March 31, 2017
Tony Pearl

As I write these words, I’m overlooking the crystal-clear blue-tinged waters of the Caribbean. The boats in the marina are docked and their crews are scurrying about in preparation of the day’s activities. The weather here in Curacao (a Dutch Caribbean island just north of Venezuela) has been exquisite, as my slight sunburn indicates. It should be about 82 degrees here today, while back home it’s a balmy 30 degrees.

So, have YOU taken a vacation recently? Did you have the chance to get away and do something fun, relaxing, or otherwise fulfilling lately?  If not, why not?  There have been countless studies done and research conducted that prove that people who take the time to take vacations live longer, happier, and healthier lives.  Google that if you don’t believe me.  Or ask the guy who sold us our timeshare (I’ll get back to you about that).  Read More >>


When a Buyer Provides Feedback… Listen!

By Frank Iglesias on March 31, 2017
Frank Iglesias

This month’s tip is so critical to your success. There will be many times when you put deals out and instead of getting an offer, you get feedback from your Buyer.  If it is constructive, and oftentimes it is by people who sincerely want the property, listen!  Buyers, especially experienced Buyers can provide a wealth of knowledge for you on your deals.  They oftentimes have the scars of rehabbing and know many things you may or may not have thought of.  You want to take advantage of this information!

Some things they may share with you:
