Are you new to real estate and want to learn what I consider to be the absolute biggest factor in whether you succeed in this business or not?   Have you been at this real estate thing for a while and just aren’t seeing the results you’d like to have?  Have you thought that there is some key ingredient that you just can’t get ahold of?  What is the difference between people that make mediocre to average success at best, and those few that are very successful at what they do?  There are some very key thoughts and rituals the very successful embrace that the average person either doesn’t know about or won’t do in order to reach high levels of achievement.  Do you know what these key fundamentals are?  Well you should, if you want to be truly successful in whatever endeavors you take on!

Learning the Language of Real Estate InvestingIn 1995, when Kim and I made our start as real estate investors, we knew nothing about nothing about real estate.  When we attended local real estate investor meetings, we didn’t understand anything anyone said – it was as if they spoke a different language.  It was very frustrating!

So why didn’t we quit – after all, that’s what most would-be investors do soon after they start, right?  We didn’t quit because Kim and I didn’t want to “work for the man” for the rest of our lives.  We wanted to make our own way.  We wanted to have our capital assets working for us instead of us working for our capital assets.   

Can’t tell you the number of times someone has told us, “Yeah, I’ve been thinking about buying some investment property, but don’t know where to start.” Read More→

Keep the Neighbors Happy

Posted on February 27, 2012 by

Keep the Neighbors HappyWhen we’re selling or renting a house, the neighbors can help make it a pleasant experience or a real nightmare.  Bill and I always try to talk with the neighbors and listen to their needs and concerns.  We want the neighbors to like our house and appreciate the improvements we make.  We also want the neighborhood’s values to benefit from our sales price.

We recently bought a house in a very nice neighborhood where the values had taken a terrible turn downward.  We did a beautiful rehab to the house and property, spending about $24,000 on improvements.  The neighbors were patient with the noise and tolerant of our trucks constantly blocking the road.

“Let Me Show You How I Made Seven Figures In Twelve Short Months Using My Unique Direct Mail Strategies To Locate More Highly Motivated Sellers, Buyers and Lenders and Completely Automate My Business”
“And How You Can Do The Same In Your Pajamas Without Licking A Single Stamp!”

Kathy KennebrookIt’s absolutely true. I usually start my day talking to sellers, making offers and buying a property before I ever get through my first glass of iced tea in the morning, (I’m allergic to coffee) or get out of my pajamas.

When I first got started in the real estate business a few years ago, I was working in full-time sales logging thousands of miles each year because if I didn’t work, I didn’t get paid. Frankly, I was tired of the whole business. I just thought there had to be a better way to make a living.

Then I discovered real estate and quickly found out the best deals were going to be made only with sellers who were truly motivated to sell.

Once I decided I wanted to make a lot of money…and enjoy the good life that goes with it, I knew I needed to find a way to make it happen. And the way to that goal was to find motivated sellers who wanted and needed to sell.

I Want To Help You Earn The Same Big Profits I Do… Even in Today’s Market!

Hundreds of real estate investors all over America have implemented my systems. Now they have motivated sellers practically begging them to take their properties off their hands. What’s their secret? What’s their edge?

At Last I Have Unlocked The Secrets To Getting Really Motivated Sellers, Buyers and Lenders Contacting You.

What are the Secrets??? Join me on the special Webcast I’m doing with Atlanta REIA on Thursday, March 1st at 7PM to find out more!
