The banks are turning on each other! Over the past few years, Americans have become aware of the financial fraud that was committed against the country by the major banks. The more the public hears about the Federal Reserve spending $60-70 billion dollars every month to buy garbage loans back from the banks that created them at 100 cents on the dollar, the more upset they get. Well it looks like the banks are starting to get upset with each other, too. Bank of New York Mellon (BONY) has sued JP Morgan Chase for misrepresenting the value of a pool of loans that was sold to BONY for nearly $1 billion. You would think that BONY would expect this sort of thing from Chase. After all, it has been common knowledge for years that the banks have been lying about the values of their loans and mortgage backed securities since the beginning of the housing boom. In fact, we now have the first person testimony of a person who tried to stop the fraud at Chase.

According to Chase whistleblower Alayne Fleischmann, Chase knowingly bundled up garbage loans with good ones, slapped a good rating on them, and sold them off to investors. These garbage loans were referred to as “scratch and dent” in the industry because they were a lot like dinged up cars – worth nowhere near the same amount as cars in good condition. This isn’t just an accusation though. Chase has admitted to selling hundreds of millions of dollars’ worth of these loans to investors by lying about their quality. Not only do they admit to doing this, they also admit that they were warned by people like Fleischmann that they were committing fraud by knowingly selling these mortgage backed securities.

Roger SalamIn the previous article (if you missed it, see Part I), I mentioned about all the things you’ll need to do before and during attending a seminar to maximize the investment of your time and resources.  

However, that’s not enough. If you really want to capitalize (and I’m assuming you do, otherwise you’d not be reading this), you MUST implement these post seminar suggestions. Actually, these are more than just “suggestions” they are requirements to truly maximize the experience of being there.

1. What To Do With The Business Cards

I hope you collected tons of business cards (or exchanged contact information electronically) to expand your contacts and sphere of influence. Now what do you do with them? Stack them in some corner of your work desk at your office or home perhaps with the rubber band? No, that’ll not do. I hope you’ve some kind of contact management software (I use Infusionsoft.com).   Type them (preferably your assistant) into your contact manager or you can use a business card reader to make it faster. I give my stack of business cards (with notes on back) to my assistant and they go into my CRM (Customer Relationship Management) software for follow up actions. On the back of the card, I write down where and when we met and anything that stands out about that person in the notes section of the contact. Read More→

Who Values the House More?

Posted on January 1, 2015 by

Investors and homeowners alike are almost intuitively inclined to have a higher opinion of their existing or potential properties than other parties. This would include potential buyers, lenders, brokers and even appraisers. However, this wasn’t always the case during the bubble years of the last decade. We know inflated real estate appraisals contributed to the excesses. The data within REIAComps has consistently shown investors how to determine both solid acquisition value and after repair value for residential real estate.

For those of you already connected to REIAComps, the control and feeling of confidence you have over your deals is priceless. Having valuation data at the ready adds power and knowledge to your tool belt. Use REIAComps to investigate the changing values of dwellings no matter what market area you are in.

When we look at the half-dozen years after the financial crisis, everything got turned upside down. We know Appraisers became in most cases overly conservative.  Every one saw Appraisal values were consistently lower than homeowner value opinions from 2007 to 2013. We could even say this factor was a drag on the U.S. housing-market recovery.  Read More→

I have been asked by new and veteran investors if they should consider getting a real estate license. My response is usually, “Sure, why not?” I do not want to push them into it nor do I want to convince them not to do it. I simply want them to consider for themselves their own pros and cons of having a license. Personally, I like having my license and could not imagine being an investor without one.

Are there cons to having a license? Yes, but the cons are insignificant or temporary. The one con that most investors and real estate agents alike share is the cost of having a license. Just getting licensed is an investment. You need to take some classes and make a minimum score before given permission to take the actual exam to get licensed, which cost a few hundred dollars. Once you are licensed and depending in what state you are in you must pay a National Realtor Association fee, local Realtor fee, MLS fee and brokerage fees. In order to keep the license you must also pay to take continuing education courses. However, if you close enough properties they will more than pay for these fees. Another con you may have as an investor is having to work for a brokerage. Read More→

QuickBooks Pro 2015

If you have QuickBooks 2013 or 2014 and are thinking about purchasing 2015 version – there are a few changes to this update. I will point out just a couple here but there are many more.

The same as 2014, QuickBooks Pro 2015 has a “What’s New”yellow bar on the side of many of the windows that have new features. When you click on the bar an overlay feature will pop up to indicate where the new features are. Most of these are in your shortcut windows. Once you have viewed them and are comfortable that you know the features you can turn off the yellow bar under the “Help” drop down list. You can always turn it back on if you need to refresh your memory about a feature. Read More→

3 Stages of Real Estate Investing
With Bill Cook

Bill CookBill Cook and his wife Kim have been investing in real estate since 1995. Their investment portfolio includes single-family homes, mobile homes, and a small mobile home park. When it comes to creative deal structuring and funding, Bill is among the best, most experienced investors in the country. Bill firmly believes that the key to being a successful real estate investor is to own a number of PAID-FOR investment properties than bring in mailbox money each and every month. Bill and Kim have been teaching others how to successfully invest in real estate since 1997 and have written a syndicated real estate investing news column since 2003 that is published in a number of Georgia newspapers as well as the Atlanta REIA Profit Newsletter.

At the Meeting, Bill will teach you about the three stages of real estate investing: Starters, Estate Builders and Enders. Do you know which category you’re in? Do you know how to profit from the two categories that you’re not in? Are you aware that everything you need to do a deal is contained within these three groups of real estate investors: The deal, the money, the paperwork, the management, and the know-how? Did you know that you can find each category of investor at the Atlanta REIA meetings?

At our Meeting, you will learn:

  • What is a Starter, Estate Builder and Ender?
  • What benefits do each group of investors bring to the deal-making table?
  • Where will you find the best, fastest and safest source of money to fund your next deal?
  • What’s the difference between being a bird-dog and a wholesaler…and is either one an Estate Builder?
  • What is the primary paperwork used by each category of investor?
  • Is it possible for flippers and wholesalers to retire wealthy?
  • What are the two things that make you money while you sleep? (This is why every real estate investor’s goal should be to become an Ender!)

Come join us at the Atlanta REIA Main Meeting on Monday, January 5th and learn all you can about the Atlanta Real Estate Market from 3 highly successful, local real estate experts!

Before our main presentation, bring us your deals and let’s see how we can make several creative structures for maximum profit! Led By Russ Hiner.

Regina bought her first investment property right out of college in 2002. She has bought and sold real estate in upstate NY as well as the Atlanta area. In the past 2 years she has wholesaled 20+ deals and is involved with other projects as well. She has three lovely daughters ages 16, 10 and 3, and a day-job as an occupational therapist. Her goal is to continue wholesaling and rehabbing with long term plans to buy and hold. She enjoys teaching other new investors how to be successful with wholesaling
