Question 1: Why invest in real estate in todays market?

Great question. Because its the best time to. Yes in some areas values are down, however rents arent. So if you can afford to buy and hold, once the market recovers, those people who buy now will profit the most.


Question 2: How can investing in real estate help me? Most people invest in real estate to address or solve a need, and for most people there are really just main three reasons why a person would buy a house that isn't their home. The number 1 reason for most people is to supplement their income. The number 2 reason would be to earn a huge chunk of cash so that they can tackle an upcoming need, like raising the down payment on a business franchise. Finally the number 3 reason why one would invest in real estate is to replace that persons' current income. For instance:


Example 1: At issue - you have a credit score of at least 620, your current monthly household income is $4,000, and you would like to find a way to supplement it so that you can buy that new, red, certified pre-owned Sports Car that you really need to get for your 39th birthday. The note on this ride if purchased for $20,000 would be about $390 a month; and since you just can't see paying this expense out of your savings or salary, just how are you going to accomplish this?

Solution - By getting tenants to make the payments for you. Buy 2 rental properties in solid, owner occupied, or rental markets where market rent is at least $200 higher per unit than the total of your monthly financing expense, using a portion of the net rental income to cover the car note.

Example 2: At issue - You need to raise $30,000 to cover the cost of starting your new business, and you don't want to get a ridiculous interest rate on small business loan from a bank, nor do you want to do the song and dance routine required to get funding.

Solution - Buy, finance, repair, and market a fixer upper property needing cosmetic repairs in a strong owner occupied or rental area for about 60% of the after repaired value (ARV), securing a credit line from a lender for up to 85% of the after repair value immediately after the property is purchased, and the repairs are completed, ensuring that the funds required to get your business off the ground are there when you need them.

Question 3: If there is so much profit available on these houses, why do don't we buy, fix, and resale them ourselves? Our business is focused on providing maximum value to our clients; we find the deals and provide them for our clients far below market prices. Also, there are only so many rehab projects and tenants that we can handle at one time. We don't over extend ourselves.


Question 4: What financing options are availble to customers? On a by request basis, we can assist our clients in locating lenders for conventional and hard money loans. Conventional loans are used for properties where no repairs are needed, and hard money loans are used in situations where the buyer needs to close quickly on a property needing significant repairs. We do not provide owner financed properties, nor do we make loans on properties that we offer for sale.
