Learning the Language of Real Estate Investing
Posted on February 27, 2012 byIn 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 byWhen 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. Read More→
