Foreclosures on the Move?

Posted on June 5, 2017 by

There has never been a foreclosed house which didn’t have potential profit written all over it. Today, several indicators including the firm RealtyTrac have released 1st Quarter 2017 data which shows foreclosure filings and default notices, scheduled auctions and bank repossessions are down over 5% from the prior Qtr, over 2016 and are the lowest since 2007.

Knowing the true value of real estate is critical, try to do a deal without it and see. The guidance and data within REIAComps has consistently shown investors how to determine both solid acquisition value and after repair value to earn lasting profits.

Some of the most stubborn foreclosure cases are finally being flushed out of the foreclosure pipeline, and we all can expect to see more noise in the numbers over the next few months as national foreclosure activity makes its way back to more stable patterns by the end of this year. Thus, while foreclosures are down, they will always be with us. As investors, this s a good thing!  Read More→

Capitalization Rate Explained

Posted on June 5, 2017 by

Every time I mention a capitalization rate to a group of learning based, future investors, I get this blank deer in the headlights’ look (not that I have stared many deer in the face). So I decided to simplify the meaning and amplify the importance.

Thecapitalization rate(R) is the rate of return used to estimate the property’s value based on that property’s net operating income. Often called a Cap Rate (Rate), it is the method for determining the attractiveness of the investment for the potential purchaser.

First one needs to understand net operating income (NOI). The net operating income is the annual income minus all expenses. Expenses would include taxes, insurance, management fees, homeowner’s insurance, common area utilities and any other expenses that is paid toward running this particular piece of real estate. It does not include the mortgage… never. This rate of return assumes that the property was paid for with cash. Therefore, when you see income on this formula, we are talking about the net operating income, or, NOI which we will use the single letter I to designate.  Read More→

Where’s the Money?

Posted on June 5, 2017 by

The first thing you may have learned when you became interested in real estate investing was either the concept of other people’s money (OPM) and/or leveraging. These are key concepts to learn early so you can invest and grow faster. However, not many people show you how to find money and if you find money, how to leverage it.

There are many ways to go about finding money for your real estate investments. The easiest and guaranteed way that I know how to find money to fund real estate deals is to have solid deals. While wholesalers and some investors try and do peddle properties with slim to no margins, these types of deals will not guarantee you any respectable funding. You want to find investment properties that are at least 70% of market value minus repairs. By repair, I mean that the estimated repair budget is enough to transform the investment property into the home you are using to value the property. I bet that if you have a deal that meets this criteria you can find the funds to fund it. When you begin to look for funding you want to know you have a true deal. DO NOT, I repeat, DO NOT take another person’s information as being correct. Do your own due diligence. The last thing you want to do is attempt to raise money with a property that is not a deal.  Read More→

Whether you’re just launching a business or you’re going online with an existing company, take some time to get acquainted with QuickBooks Online.

Your first hour with any web-based application is probably spent exploring and clicking buttons, links, and other navigation tools to get the lay of the land.

QuickBooks Online should be no different. In fact, it’s even more important to take it slow when you’re using an accounting solution. If you start entering data without understanding how everything works together, you may make mistakes early on that will be difficult to undo down the road.  Read More→

What is Massive Action?

Posted on June 5, 2017 by

I recently read a book by Grant Cardone called the 10x rule. I am rereading it again now because it made such a strong impact. I highly recommend as soon as you are done reading this article, you buy it immediately. I do not get any kind of credit for it. It’s simply a must read for investors, in particular wholesalers.

Wholesaling is a massive action business. It takes massive action to keep the lead funnel going which is what powers the entire business. In his book, Grant talks about four levels of action to give clarity as to what your goal should be. I paraphrase them below.  Read More→

“The one thing that unites all human beings, regardless of age, gender, religion, economic status, or ethnic background, is that, deep down inside, we all believe that we are above-average drivers.” ~  Dave Barry

Life360 is an app I can’t imagine life without. I have a 16 year old driver in my family and it gives me some peace of mind knowing I can keep tabs on his miles per hour, hard breaks, even his phone useage. It will even contact me in the event of an emergency like an accident or a break down. I believe this is a must have app for any new driver.

You can do more than just spy on your kid with this app. It’s a nice closed circle where you can view the real time location of friends or family members on a private map. There are many other options to use the app. For example, you can receive real time alerts when friends or family arrive or leave home, work, and school. It’s nice if you have younger kids and you don’t want them on social media, but you can still have that experience of sharing photos and text messages with our secure, private chat. You can easily add or delete people from your ‘circle’ and see past location history for your Circle. There is also a Crash Detection service that will contact the parent or guardian. The most impressive thing is that you can track a lost or stolen phone.  Read More→

David Tilney

Posted on May 19, 2017 by

David TilneyDavid Tilney has owned and operated single-family houses for 39 years.  He understands that real estate, if vacant, is not an asset but a liability. He also believes that his tenants are his greatest assets. David views his tenants as his on-site resident managers who are compensated with good long-term housing. Empowering tenants has allowed David and his wife, Mary, to spend 8 months each year in Naples FL and 4 months in Colorado Springs, without the need for any employees.

In 1984 David became a tenant and rented a house for 35 years, which he then sub-leased for a profit. By the end of 1996 David had leased and sub-leased over 100 houses. Many others have achieved real estate success using this business model.

John D. Rockefeller once said, “Own nothing, but control everything.” David has found master leasing to be a great way to control most of the benefits of real estate without all of the liabilities.

Unlocking The Secrets Of Master Leasing!
A Great Way to Get Started Investing in Real Estate
With Special Guest, David Tilney

Atlanta REIA Members Can Attend at No Charge. This month,
Guests Can RSVP Online Now for $20 or Pay $25 at the Door.

David TilneyWe are very excited to announce that David Tilney will be our special guest trainer this month at Atlanta REIA on Monday, June 5th at 5:00 PM at the Crowne Plaza Ravinia located at 4355 Ashford Dunwoody Rd, Atlanta, GA. If you are considering becoming a real estate investor, and perhaps you can’t afford to buy a property-don’t despair! Think about renting from owners who are saddled with “inconvenient property’ and negotiating the right to sub-lease thier property to others. This could put in control of multiple properties in no time!

Very few realize the incredible benefits that a lease from an owner can transfer to a tenant. At the June Atlanta REIA Meeting David Tilney, a long time real estate investors and property manager, will explain how to get started investing in real estate by leasing properties from an owner and then re-leasing them to others in need of a good home. Attendees will learn how income, tax benefits, profit, growth and security can all be obtained by leasing and sub-leasing other people’s property. David will share the stories of 5 individuals who created income streams to support their lifestyle without the need of capital to accomplish their goals.

David will also demonstrate how master leasing is an excellent way to purchase property when and if an owner decides to sell at some time in the future. Master leasing gives you time to create trust with the owner by paying your rent on time and by doing more than you promise in your lease. Owners are more receptive to carrying the financing for those with whom they already have established a trusting relationship. You get to “test drive” a master-leased property to see how it performs before making any offers and your offers are on properties that are not listed on the market for sale so there is no competition.

During his 90 minute presentation, David will show you…

  • How you can achieve your real estate investment goals without taking on debt
  • How to acquire most of the benefits of real estate without ownership
  • “Test drive” properties before you buy
  • The difference between leasing and sub-leasing properties
  • How to lessen the owner’s liability dramatically
  • And Much Much More…

Come to our June 5th meeting and you will discover that master leasing is a wonderful tool to add to your real estate investing toolbox.

David started buying houses in 1978. As he acquired properties, he hired out the management, always with dismal results. His first house had a conical fireplace and chandelier stolen, a fire started in one of the bedrooms, and the rear fence burned down. In another case, his manager left town absconding with funds and was later arrested by the FBI. David quickly learned that property acquisition was the easy part of real estate investment. The key to long-term success was, and still is, good management. David has spent more than 35 years learning property management from the most knowledgeable managers he could find and from the ‘school of hard knocks.’ In his quest to be the best manager he could be, he has implemented, revised, tested and modified other people’s ideas, and created new material as necessary. David has changed systems and procedures as the laws and times have dictated.

If you are serious about building wealth in today’s real estate market, you don’t want to miss this presentation! RSVP Now!

This is a “dinner” group and we kindly request that you buy dinner and/or drinks since the Hudson Grille allows us to meet there. There will be lots of learning and lots of networking. Bring your deals and your haves, wants and needs to the meeting for discussion.

As always, Atlanta REIA Member can attend the meeting at no charge and not-yet-members can RSVP Online for $15 or pay $20 at the door.
