What To Do When The Banks Say No! Is it more traumatic to be told no by a date or a bank? Actually, I ‘m not sure but I can tell you I’ve gotten a lot of no’s from one of them…I’m not saying which. For many investors the no from the banks can be a serious problem. How can one possibly do real estate investing without a lender or a large amount of money in the bank? There is another way to do it. It is referred to by many as “private money” or a “silent partner”. It simply means that someone other than a b... Why Would Someone Lend Me Money To Buy Their Property? When I first heard about people lending money to facilitate people buying their properties, I was puzzled and asked just that question. I thought people were selling because they needed money and wanted the proceeds from the sale of the property. But then I was looking at it only from my narrow perspective. There is a way of acquiring real estate that can be done with little or no money down and even if you have bad credit. That method is known as “seller financing” or “se... The Twist And Shout For the real estate investor this has a different meaning than for the musician. John Lennon would be shouting also about this concept. What I am talking about in regard to real estate is the twist. It is a way of seeing something in a property that no one else has seen. Let me explain. I frequently come across properties, and in fact I look for properties that have been on the market for a long time and have a big stack of realtor cards on the kitchen counter. What I do i... Guaranteed Cash Flow? Ok, we all know there are really no guarantees in this life except death and taxes. However there are ways to set yourself up in real estate investments so that you have as close to a guarantee as can be had. It seems that one of the hardest things to do in real estate is to have a property in positive cash flow. The general rule of thumb is the 1% rule. You should be collecting at least 1% of the value of your property each month in rents. That means that for a $200k prop... Should You Become A Realtor? Have you asked yourself that question lately? I did and I decided the answer was yes. Let me tell you what led up to it. I have been using realtors to purchase some of my investment properties. The Multiple Listing Services can be a great place to find properties, and one has to be a licensed realtor in the US to access them. I’m not sure what the laws are in other countries, so this discussion will be of only the US. Each time I buy a property, the realtor collects al... Why You Should Invest In Real Estate I am always amazed when I talk with people about investing and real estate. I was at a resort recently with my family and struck up a conversation with a woman about her experience with the resort. As we chatted she mentioned that she was a realtor. I asked if she did her own investments, and to my amazement she said “I wish I could, but I have my money tied up in funds”. I almost drowned in the hot tub! Here is someone who facilitates deals for people in real estate (ass... Get Paid To Surf - The Next Big Thing The latest concept for the internet entrepreneur is pay to surf. Do I mean you get paid to sit on your butt and surf web pages? Yes, absolutely! I know many people would think it impossible to get double digit returns on their money daily, but that is in fact what is promised by these sites. How do they work? The concept is very simple. You establish an account with them and then start surfing. They display pages that others want advertised on a timer of anywhere from 15 t...
