Now that the push for real estate matchmaking software has ended again for now… There is more to being a real estate matchmaker other than getting a buyer and seller and putting them together. I

Well it’s been 209 days since my last post this one will be short the next one won’t be nor will it be in 209 more days! I guarantee it won’t even be another 209 hours before the next post… I will say this and this only flat out lying is a terrible marketing technique!

I started with no money for marketing but then one day… I got this magic thingy that allowed me to really get going even though it’s only been around for 2 years and I’ve been doing this for 8 years or more the math somehow works out to be dead on…

Here’s some math that does work out… If you were to buy the magic doohickey they highly “suggest” (i.e. make anything less darn near useless) it’s $197 a month (which you know even absolutely broke people can afford) or you can send a mail out to 209 home sellers, buyers or what ever for $186.01…

But then again why would we want to let something silly like that math garbage get in the way of a good story about real estate matchmaking software with Freedomsoft or Freedom$oft or the miracle money machine for wholesaling real estate or (insert not real catchy term here)… That will be gone forever soon for 5 or 6 weeks… Sad part is I actually use it myself just don’t like the route they have chosen to go with the marketing of this thing!

Howdy It’s Been A Minute!

So it has been awhile, but every time I had a post I wanted to write the flavor of the month would come out with an email that all of his large list of friends would send you also that was close to the same topic! Speaking of those guys I’ve noticed something when I check my email it’s kind of like Groundhog Day (Bill Murray is a hilarious dude!) in that about every six weeks they recycle the last flash in the pan who’s course or miracle doohickey will be closed forever in less you order before Midnight!

At least there is typically only one guy or group being pushed at a time with that aggressive (annoying, agitating, or assholish pick your favorite a- adjective) tactic. Yesterday however there were no less than 8 guys offering personal one on one coaching to a few limited people because they care so much… If that was the reason then why isn’t it free?

So I have a question have any of you ever bought in two one of the medium or big guys coaching program and did you have any success with it?

A Picture is Worth a Thousand Questions…?!?

I know several people have asked me about doing deals in other markets what’s my best tip? This is a good tip for doing deals in your own  market also though… There is an old saying that “a picture is worth a thousand words” while this is true if you don’t have enough or the right pictures you will find yourself answering a thousand questions! If you have a house that needs more than paint and carpet in repairs you are gonna need lots of pictures for one as well as pictures of some damage! Why if you are telling people a house needs ten to twenty thousand dollars or more in repairs would you send them  5 or 6 pretty pictures of  a house? This works both ways even if you have a house that needs only a small amount of repairs why not send them  a picture of every inch of the house as proof?  It’s one thing to wholesale a house without ever going in it, but it’s a whole other situation when you don’t have proof of ever talking to someone other than the seller who has been in it! I was looking on Craigslist which as many of you know isn’t out of the ordinary for me or a lot of people, and I started looking at the local wholesalers ads and they didn’t have any pictures so I emailed them what I got back was a picture of the front side of the house and the back side of the house… That was it real estate investing of any kind isn’t for the lazy especially not wholesaling people! If you are doing it in your market go take pictures, and if it’s out of your market don’t even tie it up until you have at least eight to ten pictures and then have a contractor, bird dog, or even the seller send you a bunch of pictures at the very least 15!

Just The Facts…

by on February 26, 2011 at 2:43 pm

What is the best thing you can do for your business? Use all of the resources available to you in the most efficient way possible! How many of you know whether or not your county or city tax assessment information is online? Wouldn’t that be easier than going to the court house and physically looking through the mounds of paper?

Do you use your telephone for more than texting forwards all day? It’s one of the greatest tools you have for creating a buyers list! If you think that all of the real cash buyers are checking the internet you are sadly mistaken. You know when you are running comps and see the investor prices you should probably take a minute and find out who is buying it and call them don’t direct mail them and hope you get a response use your phone and dial them up!

Did you know there is more to the internet than blogs, bad dating sites and 3 legged mule porn? Yes indeed there is everything you need to know to run a profitable real estate investing business if you look! Hell if you are too lazy to use a search engine just ask somebody where to go and they will tell you!

The Post 29 Years 364 Days in the Making…

by on February 22, 2011 at 9:44 am

You know really it being the day before my 30th birthday you would think that I would be scared of 30 or happy either one… To me it’s just another day even though my boss is secretly a nice guy and would give me the entire week off if I wanted… First and foremost I would like to say thanks and fuck you right back to the people who sent me Tevin Campbell and Sisqo’s greatest hits cd’s… Secondly the only thing I really want for my birthday isn’t sold in stores or something I’m likely to get, but that’s what dreams are for… Thirdly I would like to state that while I enjoy a healthy dose of competition as I get older I seem to be more interested in the success of others… So point blank who wants to do a deal or two together? If your real estate investing business sucks or you just want to see another perspective give me a shout…
Fourthly Product launches are stupid when you do the exact same thing you did 6 months ago over and talk about your never before seen video that I have already seen…

Tax Refund Time… Wanna “Ball” For Longer Than a Few Weeks?

0
by on February 4, 2011 at 11:30 am


So it’s tax time and for the majority of folks that means it’s refund time… Which for some reason it’s time to start “ballin’ ” like you are newly rich and buy a few things you’ve been wanting or pay off some of those bills created over the year especially during the holiday seasons. Use your money responsibly now I know you’re thinking isn’t this a real estate investing blog? Yes you would indeed be correct on that one oh so observant reader. However I can talk about anything I want to, because well I pay for this you don’t ;) but seriously before you blow all of your newfound “wealth” think about this… Would you like to get a check like that every month at least once a month for the entire year? Wouldn’t you like to be able to do your Jim Jones impersonation all year long by having a few thousand dollars of extra money a month? Then my advice to you is to take action and either buy a course you like and use it to the best of your ability, or hire a coach/ mentor whatever you want to call it that you think would suit you.

If you are interested I have a tax refund sale for 50% off while I have space available… It’s over on the right… Don’t spend all of the governments money in one place!

Product After Product…

It’s kind of funny when you see somebody chasing hard after that affiliate real estate product dollar isn’t it? See at some point when you are sending out all of the pre cooked emails you have to realize that you appear to be and most likely are full of shit… Think about it if you have your own products and attempt to sell for someone else eventually there is overlap or an admission of your own words just aren’t that good. If you are willing to admit your own product isn’t that good that you just pushed on your oh so important “list” nobody believes a word damn one that comes out of your mouth, because you are now just in it for the money! Now I’m not saying being in it for the money is wrong… I mean hell if someone told me they just wanted to feed their family I would teach them how to hunt and fish, yet if the same person says they want money to feed their family and do virtually whatever they wanted to I would teach them real estate… It’s all about the perception and persona these people continually attempt to portray and fail miserably at achieving… For instance if you promise people x number of cash buyers when they buy your shit they should probably get it regardless of the value of your content… You also shouldn’t be everybody’s buddy it looks fucking stupid! I mean if someone taught you personally how to do something cool I guess but you already sold your list your product for the same thing a few weeks ago. What planet does this idea hold  any logic? Yet that’s the constant bombardment of emails and product pitches very basis… Sad and ignorant to say the least… So I’m gonna put something in your email to make up for the others bitchassedness! @ 10:30 ET expect a free gift from the king of anti- douche baggery.

2011 Goals… Don’t Get Trapped

0
by on January 3, 2011 at 9:56 am

While everyone agrees that long term goals are an integral component of success most people fail to realize the trap that they also set, and the fact they potentially can hinder any chance you may have at succeeding. Having the appropriate action plan in place to achieve your long term goals is of the utmost importance. If you do not know how to get where you want to be it’s impossible to get there. There is not a GPS to life or business that you can just go sync up to your wrist watch and achieve everything you want to.

You are the only one who can make the effort and do the things necessary to get where you want to be. It doesn’t matter who you get to guide you real estate coaches/ mentors, personal trainers, or whatever. No one can do things for you! Also if you don’t know what you want nobody can help you get there!

What’s the problem with just having long term goals?  If you say during January, ” In 2011 I am going to make $500,000 and lose 50 pounds,” the trap is it gives you an entire year to make excuses about well I still have time to get there… Ask yourself if you do nothing to get to your goal in the first 6 months ” How the hell am I gonna get there in the last 6? What is so different now?”… When people don’t reach a goal and all they did was try the last couple months of the year they start to say well I’m set up for next year, but what ends up happening is the holidays kill all of their momentum. Which in turn means they have to start all over again oddly enough with the same exact goals as the year prior. Do you know what this isn’t? GROWTH you are not any better or hungrier than you were last year!

Some basic steps to get started on your action plan so that you don’t stay the exact same person forever!

1. “What do I need to accomplish this week to get to where I want to be?”

Knowing what to do in the short term gives you the opportunity to achieve your long term goals. Short term goals are the pieces to the big puzzle.

2. ” What needs to be done today to not mess up my week, which then messes up my month, and then messes up my year?”

Breaking down your short term goals into daily tasks lets you know exactly where you are at!

Also while writing this I’m thinking of an email coaching program if you are interested email me! It’s in the connect/contact section!
