How To Get Started Wholesaling Part 1
September 18, 2018 14:15 - 26 minutes - 39.1 MBOn this podcast episode I discuss how to get started wholesaling real estate. This is part one which is basically an introduction to wholesaling. I talk about the 3 main components of wholesaling which are: 1. Finding Houses To Flip To Investors 2. Finding Cash Buyers To Buy These Houses 3. Finding The Money To Fund These Flips The above 3 items are the essence of the foundation of wholesaling real estate. I find that far too many beginners that are new to wholesaling, spend way too much ...
Turn Key Rental Properties in Florida
September 17, 2018 16:15 - 15 minutes - 23.3 MBWe have a lot of questions coming in asking about rental properties and turn key rental properties. Today's podcast episode talks about Turn Key Rental properties in Florida. On this episode I discuss a typical turn key rental property that we sell to our investors with property management included. The example that I used on this podcast is a 3 bedroom 2 bathroom house in Port St Lucie, Florida. This house can be purchased for $175,000 and would rent for $1,350 per month. At this pri...
Buying Rental Properties With No Money Down
September 13, 2018 14:00 - 28 minutes - 41.2 MBOn this podcast episode I talk about buying rental properties with no money down. No money down real estate investing is one of the most overlooked and misunderstood aspects of investing in real estate. I have had real estate agents and mortgage brokers tell me that it is impossible to buy real estate with no money down. Even my own mortgage broker who refinanced my rental properties could not quite grasp the concept of what I was doing. But the topic is incredibly simple. If you find a ...
Wholesaling, Fixing and Flipping or Landlording
September 11, 2018 15:45 - 26 minutes - 39 MBOn this podcast episode I talk about the pros and cons of Wholesaling, compared to Fixing and Flipping and Landlording. If you are a beginner then wholesaling is the easiest and best place to start out since it involves very little money, does not require credit and has no risk. Fixing and Flipping requires more money, borrowing hard money and has much more risk but also much higher profit potential. And buying rental properties provides you with passive income and positive cash flow - bu...
Flipping Your First House
September 10, 2018 14:15 - 21 minutes - 31.2 MBOn this podcast episode, I talk about how new real estate investors have a tendency to focus on the wrong things. Many real estate programs tell new investors to start out by setting up their LLC's, opening checking accounts and setting up their website and business cards. As a new real estate investor, the only thing you should be focusing on is making money. The most important thing as a new real estate investor is to focus on action steps that will make you money. Any items that will n...
Buying Real Estate With Private Lender's Money
September 06, 2018 11:30 - 25 minutes - 36.8 MBOn this podcast episode, I discuss buying real estate with other people's money and how you should be using private lender's to fund your real estate deals. I give you examples, including the first house that I purchased with no money down, and how that deal was structured. We discuss the advantages of borrowed money and why the leverage of tapping into other people's money is crucial to increasing your returns. Make sure you take note of the advice that I give at the end of the podcast o...
Bidding on Online Real Estate Auction Sites
September 02, 2018 19:14 - 11 minutes - 17.8 MBOn this podcast episode I discuss bidding on online auction sites like Hubzu, Auction and Xome. Online auction sites that list bank owned properties (REO's), and short sales are an excellent resource to find good deals at wholesale prices. Many of these deals have enough profit potential for you to be able to wholesale the property to rehabbers or fix and flip the property yourself. For example, I recently posted a video of myself standing in front of a house with a Hubzu sign. That house...
Rental Properties and Investing In Real Estate For Cash Flow
August 31, 2018 23:45Rental Properties And Investing In Real Estate For Positive Cash Flow Watch this interview with my student Jorge which was taken in my office today. Jorge flew in from California and came straight from the airport to my office for a coaching session. In this video we talk about rental properties including the two triplexes that he currently owns with his wife (who didn’t want to be in the video but you can hear in the background). We also talk about buying another rental property which is a...

August 30, 2018 00:00Positive Cash Flow Rental Property Number 5 For My Student Andy This video was taken today in front of a rental property that Andy just purchased.

Andy started just two years ago by attending my boot camp and since then he has purchased 5 rental properties. He has increased his net worth by $450,000. Andy has a full time job and he buys rental properties on the side while st...
Bandit Signs For Real Estate |Marketing To Motivated Sellers
August 29, 2018 12:30Watch this video to learn about how to use bandit signs for marketing to motivated sellers. Marketing with Bandit Signs is one of those old school methods that a lot of new investors overlook. That’s a pity because marketing with bandit signs is still a great way to find motivated sellers and cash buyers. Putting out bandit signs is labor intensive though, and if you are in a warm location (or cold location) then it can be pretty cumbersome to put out the signs yourself. It is also not a v...
Direct Mail For Real Estate - Introduction To Direct Mail
August 24, 2018 12:45This introduction to direct mail for real estate video walks you through the steps of a direct mailing campaign to show you how direct mail works from start to finish. The concept of direct mail in real estate is that you are mailing a list of property owners in order to find the sellers that are the most motivated to sell. Usually the most motivated sellers are the ones that have some form of distress (hence the term distressed sellers). So when you are talking to sellers ask yourself this s...
Fixing and Flipping Houses | House Review Before Listing
August 22, 2018 13:45In this video, I start out by driving through a neighborhood where I am listing a property for sale to show you what the neighborhood looks like. I like to preview properties before we list them on the MLS, and I like to make sure that everything is perfect. I notice everything all the way to the smell of the property when you first open the door (tip in hot areas keep your a/c cooler). In this video, you see that as I approach the house, I notice that it is missing a mailbox, something that...
How Much Money Can You Make Fixing and Flipping Houses
August 19, 2018 15:30How Much Money Can You Make Flipping Houses? That is one of the most frequent questions I get about fixing and flipping. In this video I talk about the profit potential from fixing and flipping houses, and I show you the checks that I just received from my most recent flip (which was sold just a few days ago). This house was purchased for $110,000, I spent around $25,000 repairing the house, and I sold it for $175,000. I was also the listing agent on the sale. The net profit on this fix and ...

Materials That We Use For Fixing and Flipping Houses
August 15, 2018 13:00We have found that the biggest obstacle to our students buying their first house to fix and flip is having a reliable contractor. We have even found that students sign up for our coaching program just to have access to our contractors! Having good, reliable contractors to work on your houses that you plan on fixing and flipping is very important. On the previous podcast, I spoke about the importance of knowing how to estimate the cost of materials and the costs of labor. If you know how to ...
Estimating The Cost Of Repairs - Fixing and Flipping Houses
August 12, 2018 15:15 - 17 minutes - 26.5 MBOne of the biggest challenges for new investors who are looking to get into fixing and flipping houses, is the fear of not having a good contractor to do the work for them. I have seen this fear stop investors dead in their tracks, even when they have a good house, and the money lined up to buy the house. The fear of not knowing a contractor that will do the work or how much it will cost will prevent many new investors from pulling the trigger and moving forward on the deal. Don't let thi...
Understanding the ARV, and Retail & Wholesale Prices
August 11, 2018 13:35 - 11 minutes - 18 MBOn this podcast episode I discuss the importance of understanding full retail value when calculating the After Repair Value. As an investor it is very important for you to understand what a house would sell for once it has been fixed up. In order to know this, you need to understand the difference between full retail price on a property that has been completely remodeled with granite counter tops, nice cabinets and stainless steel appliances versus a house that is at retail price in great c...
Finding Real Estate Deals By Driving For Dollars
August 10, 2018 13:30 - 9 minutes - 15.6 MBOne of the best ways to locate real estate deals is by something called “driving for dollars”. Many of your competitors may be mailing post cards and yellow letters, or paying for expensive pay per click campaigns on Google or buying Facebook Ads. Some of your competitors may even be using automated dialers to cold call expired listings, for sale by owners or targeted lists that they have acquired. Those approaches all work great (and we use them all). But let me ask you a question. How man...
Wholesaling and Assigning Contracts How Wholesalers Do It
August 09, 2018 13:15 - 8 minutes - 13.6 MBOn this podcast episode I discuss how wholesalers assign contracts when they are flipping houses and how assignments of contract work. We talk about the pros and cons of assigning a contract versus paying for a double closing and when you should double close versus assigning the contract. My personal preference is to always double close but many wholesalers that I know always assign almost every house that they flip. You can download an "assignment of contract form" at this link which wa...
Having A Sense Of Urgency In Real Estate
August 08, 2018 23:00 - 7 minutes - 12.7 MBOn this podcast episode I talk about something that from the guy that taught me real estate - my mentor Ben. It's the concept of urgency and how when you spot a deal you need to have the sense of urgency to understand what you have and lock it up before someone else does. I like to use the analogy of a lion in the wild. If a lion has not eaten for weeks and it spots a deer then it doesn't think to itself hmmm should I eat. No it pounces on the deer and it eats. If you are a real estate in...

Driving For Dollars - How To Find Houses To Wholesale & Flip
August 06, 2018 22:17In this video, I show you how I drive for dollars in Pompano Beach, Florida looking for deals on the way to preview a property that is ready to be listed on the MLS. When you are driving for dollars you need to drive slowly (around 15 mph) so that you can notice things like lockboxes on doors of properties (which can be a clue to new listings). You should also be looking for realtor signs to get an idea of how many properties are listed for sale and what has sold recently. For this strategy ...

Bandit Signs 101 - How To Market To Motivated Sellers
July 31, 2018 18:30In this video, I talk about using bandit signs for marketing to motivated sellers. We have experimented with many colors over the years and we have found the best results (most calls) with yellow signs and black writing and a large phone number (with no website). Printed signs seem to work really well for motivated sellers. However for cash buyers we have found that they are more likely to call a handwritten sign.
