Real Estate Wholesaling Made Simple

Real Estate Investing Guide Presents: Working REI Meetings

Having buyers is one of the most important part of the real estate wholesaling success equation. One of the quickest ways to meet investors who can later turn into buyers is by attending real estate investment club functions. The fees to join your local real estate investment club will vary, but I can promise you that investment clubs are well worth the money.

To get the most out of attending real estate investment club functions it will be very important to step out of your shell and meet the other investors in the group. Here are a few thing to keep in mind when attending your local REI club meetings:

Remember that you have 2 ears and 1 mouth for a reason.-Try to listen twice as often as you talk. If you have not noticed yet, people love to talk about themselves, so let them.

Don’t try to be right- Even if you here the “Old investing pro” say something wrong, do not jump into correct him. People do not like to be corrected, and will often lash out at you if you try to make them look bad.

Have your success stories ready- Now do not confuse this with bragging, or tooting your own horn. Instead subtly drop your past success stories into the conversation to spark interest. If you have made another investor a lot of money tell that story. Maybe, you have found some great deals for another investor, talk about those great deals.

There are numerous reasons why many newbies to real estate investing never realize any success in real estate wholesaling.

In this article I am going to focus on one step of the wholesaling process that so many investors get wrong. The sad part is that many of the guru wholesaling courses that I have purchased actually teach newbie investors the wrong way.

From my experience the most critical factor in the entire wholesaling real estate equation is having a solid buyers list in place. Many newbie investors make the mistake of focusing their energies on locating great deals on houses prior to having any investors to buy those houses. The best deal in the world is no good unless you have a buyer lined up ahead of time. Sure, you can find buyers after you have found a good deal, but going that route has some large risks:

Risk #1 One of the main risks of finding buyers after you find motivated sellers is that your chances of being able to follow through on the contract decrease substantially because you are starting from scratch.

Risk #2 If you cannot follow through on your real estate contracts, then you will quickly start building a reputation as someone who cannot follow through on promises. Having a good reputation is critical to success in the long run. If you over promise and under deliver to the wrong Realtors or investors in a particular market, then your options for finding great deals, and selling those deals will quickly decrease substantially.

Risk #3 Your profits can decrease substantially. Because you are starting from scratch with your buyers list, you may end up having to sell your contract for far less than what it is worth simply because your buyer options are so limited.

Follow these 3 simple rules to get well on your way to real estate investing success.

Real estate investing courses: It seems like everywhere that you turn there is a new “Expert” offering you advice about the latest and greatest real estate investing techniques…But is it worth it to buy these systems?

I have personally invested thousands of dollars into different real estate investing courses. Yes, it’s true there are some that I might not buy again if given the chance. Having said that, every single course that I have ever purchased ended up teaching me something. Those little somethings at bare minimum have added at least $1,000 to my bottom line.

I figure if I can pick up at least one little real estate investing gem from each course then I am always ahead of the game.

To be honest the return rate on my own investing courses is somewhere around 6%. Almost 90% of the people who have returned my course has never done a single deal. But, they tell me that they already “Know” everything in my courses.

I always laugh about these people because I know that they haven’t dug deep enough into my real estate investing course material.

I know this because just one of the little “Gems” that I offer with my course material can literally have your buyers list built and ready to go in under 2 weeks…..And, this “Gem” has never been mentioned in a single real estate investing course that I have purchased. Yet, the people who have returned my course already know it all……Hmmmm I am probably missing something.

Many people will invest and lose thousands, if not millions in the stock market, yet they wont invest a few hundred dollars in themselves to further there investor education.

One of the courses that I would highly recommend to any newbie investor is available at www.TheForeclosureSchool.com

This is not a real estate investing course that I have authored, but I will say it offers more great real estate investing advice, across more real estate niches than any real estate other real estate investing course that I have purchased=======> all for only $47.00.

Anyway, my take is that you really can’t go wrong buying any real estate investing course if you just learn one very small lesson….But, I can promise if you don’t buy any that you will surely lose in the long run.

If you have done any work with the Internet or real estate investing websites then I am sure you have heard of the term keyword. Keywords are the words on your web page that are relevant to the type of traffic that you would like to visit your site from the search engines. When search engines send their spiders to gather information about your page they will be searching for your keywords. Your keywords will help the search engines direct your placement within the search engine itself.

I am going to come at this from the perspective that you are new to building your real estate investing website. I am going to review just a few of the errors that I have seen so many other rookie web designers make when creating real estate investing websites.

Mistake #1 Using keywords that are too generic- If your web designer uses keywords that cover to broad of a spectrum then you will never get placement near the front page of the search engines. Getting your site listed on the front page of the major search engines should be a priority in order to quickly start collecting prospects from your site. For example some specific keywords for getting leads for Austin, TX motivated sellers would be: sell our Austin home, Austin home buyers, Austin Realtors, selling homes in Austin, avoiding foreclosure in Austin. Now some examples of bad keywords would be: Sell our home, avoid foreclosure, sell real estate. The reason that the second example is so useless is because there are so many sites across the nation competing for the same keywords. Because of the heavy competition your site has almost no chance of capturing front page placement.

Mistake #2 Not putting your keywords in the correct places- For optimal search engine placement, keywords should be placed in the headings, near the beginning of your web copy, and also near the end of your web copy.

Mistake #3 Not checking out your competitors- If you want to win the war for the front page of search engines, then visit the sites that currently show up on the search engines. Once your at the site you can go to the top of the page and go to the view section of the tool bar. Under the view section hit the view source or view page source button. That is going to give you the code behind the website that you are viewing. Look for the keywords that your competitors are using near the top of the page.

If you can avoid these mistakes when building your real estate investing websites then you will be well on your way to success.

Wholesaling real estate is very simple, Don’t complicate it:

This is a very basic outline of the steps to wholesaling a home.

1st Build a buyer’s list-A strong buyers list will one of the most important aspects of your success as a real estate wholesaler. Be sure to build your buyers list before tying up any home under contract.

2nd Find Homes that meet your buyers needs- Once you have your buyers list in place it is time to start looking for great deals on homes that fit your buyers criteria.

3rd Put the home under contract with an easy out clause- Once you have located a home that meets the criteria for your buyers, you will need to put the home under contract. Include an easy out clause in the contract in case your buyers decide that they do not like the home.

4th Get your buyers through the home- Bring all of your buyers through the home to see if it meets their needs.

5th Assign the contract to you buyers or sell them the home-If the home meets their needs then you will need to establish a price that you are willing to sell them the contract for, or a price that you are willing to sell them the home for. If you are unable to assign the home then you could use a back-back closing instead. If do put the home under contract with your buyer’s then be sure to get a deposit from your buyers that is at least equal to the amount that you could lose if your buyers decide to back out of the deal.

6th Use your easy out clause- If your buyers do not like the home for one reason or another use your easy out escape clause to terminate the contract. The process ends here if your buyers do not like the home.

7th Set up a closing and get paid-If you are assigning the contract you may have already sold your position to your buyer, in this case you may have gotten paid already. If you did not get paid for selling your position already then you will be waiting for your buyer to set up a closing, and at the closing you will be collecting your fee.

Keep in mind that every person who currently wholesales homes started out not knowing a thing about the business.

the forums are a great place to learn, but be sure your learning from people who “do” wholesaling, rather than people who “read about” wholesaling.

Real Estate Investing Courses – Why Some Succeed While Others Fail? (Part 3)

If you did not happen to catch the other parts of this article I will bring you up to speed. I am author of several highly successful real estate investing courses. I have always been curious as to what factors lead to some of my students using the information that I provide successfully, while others have no success at all. After interviewing many of my students I have compiled a list of the top factors that will determine your success or failure as a real estate investor.

The first crucial success determining factor was the intentions of the real estate investing course purchaser. The second critical success factor was the ability of the purchaser to “Get up off their information and do something”. Now I will discuss the third critical factor for investing success.

The third factor that went into how successful my students would become is their mindset. By mindset I mean the way that they viewed success or failure in the investing business. Successful students had a very flexible mindset when it came to how they viewed their success. Successful students did not look at the set backs that they came across as failures. Instead they viewed the setbacks as feedback that moved them one step closer to their end goal. They realized that no set back is either good or bad, but it was their thinking that made it so. To quote myself “Failure is your receipt that says you tried”.

My students who did not achieve any level of success viewed success as an all or nothing situation. This “All or nothing” attitude, left them paralyzed by their fears. In other words they had created a situation where they had a million ways to fail, but only one way to succeed. With odds like that it is no wonder my real estate investing course material never resulted in any level of success. These students did not allow themselves any chance to become successful, because they never made it beyond the information gathering stage. Essentially they were stuck in “Analysis paralysis” or as I like to call it “Getting ready, to get ready”.

In part 4 of this 5 part article we will be discussing the fourth critical success factor which is planning.
