Good day fellow investors.

Did you know that many make-your-mouth water real estate deals aren’t found on the internet? They are found on your drive to work.

There are tens of thousands of real estate investors trolling the internet across Phoenix, Arizona and the nation. Many hope to find the next 30% below market value real estate investment deal that is going to take them from rags-to-riches.

Unfortunately, those “internet blue-light special” deals are few and far between. However, to make a living in real estate, you have to be a “hunter” and not a “gatherer.”

You can become a hunter by simply driving through neighborhoods and not always on the highways.

Today, my Director of Operations and I drove our Area of Expertise in Mesa, Arizona. We found four unlisted, unrepresented real estate opportunities.For example, we found a very distressed looking occupied property with a huge chunk missing off the front of the structure (tomorrow, I’m going to go back to the property and take a picture of it and post it here, that way you know what a distressed property looks like). This evening I am going to do some research on the parcels, print out my distress property letters, and schedule time to talk to the owners and the neighbors. Because I believe that birds of a feather flock together, and if my team can buy an entire block of single family homes and vacant lots already zoned for higher density and make a substantial profit, then good for us, correct?

No matter where you live, profitable real estate opportunities are all around. The only thing you have to do is drive down the street.

Good morning Real Estate Investors,

In a shifting real estate market, you have to change strategies to get the results you want. Naturally, for many of us the result we want is to make more money in real estate than we did yesterday.

To make more money in real estate investing, you have to find opportunities. You can’t wait for opportunities to come to you.Just because houses are staying on the market longer and the subprime mortgage industry is falling apart like the blue Chevy Lumina I owned at Purdue University, does that mean there are no longer any good real estate opportunities.

Heck no, there will always be opportunities, that is why here in downtown Phoenix, Arizona large real estate developers have been busy building there vertical projects at a maddening pace.For most of us who don’t have giant financial backing or resources like Sam Zell or Donald Trump, we have to get in the community and ask these 3 golden questions to every prospect:

  1. Have you seen any vacant or distressed properties in the area?
  2. Who do you know that might be going through some financial distress maybe from a job loss, divorce, disability?
  3. When do you plan on moving?

In a shifting real estate market, you have to go out and prospect. Don’t sit in your office waiting for the phone to ring or the e-mail lead to come. Make it your mission to ask these questions to 14 people a day, and you will be amazed at your results.

 

Happy Investing,
