How To Get Private Money For Real Estate Investing - Step Two

If you spend much time online, you?ve most likely read or heard about the law of attraction. Essentially, this law states that you tend to attract into your life whatever you focus on. I personally think the philosophy that?s risen up surrounding this so-called ?law? is just so much drivel, but there is truth to the central idea. Which brings us to step two for getting private money for real estate investing.
As in most other areas of life, if you don?t know what you?re looking for, neither will anyone else. That?s why it?s important to think carefully about what you?ll be expecting from your lenders once you sign them up. Ask some pertinent questions, write down the answers, and develop a ?Lender Fact Sheet? to give to your prospective private money lenders. Here are some of the questions you should be asking.
1. What size loans will you be looking for? This will be dictated by the type of property you normally buy. If you focus on single family homes in the $75,000 to $150,000 range, then loans up to $150,000 are what you?ll be seeking.
2. What will the terms be? Think carefully about how you will want to pay your loans back. This will, of course, change as you get into the mechanics of each individual loan and each individual property, but your prospective lenders will want to know what your intentions are. Do you plan to use the money for three years, five years, ten years? Will you make interest only payments with a balloon at the end of the term? The terms are limited only by your own creativity, but think about them now, and add them to your outline.
3. What rate will you be paying? A good rate of return compared with what they can earn elsewhere is what will attract your potential private money for real estate investing lenders. The rate you choose is up to you, and will be negotiable based on market conditions, but you should give your prospects a starting figure. Ten percent, eleven percent, twelve percent? Be prepared to make adjustments, but have a place to start.
4. How often? What will be your approximate frequency of use? Lenders want to know that they have a reasonable expectation of return. Don?t sign them up if you can?t use their money, because you?ll just be setting them up for disappointment. Only sign up as many lenders as you can reasonably expect to actually use.
As you think through these questions, others may occur to you. Write them down, along with the answers. Then, use your outline to develop your Lender Fact Sheet. Give this sheet to your prospective private money lenders at your seminars or one-on-one presentations, and be prepared to explain your terms.

The Secret - How It Applies To Real Estate Investing
July 10, 2009 by Kenny Santos
Filed under Real Estate Investing
Not getting results in your business? Are you just starting out as a real estate investor? Maybe you?ve been working at it for awhile and attended every seminar out there, read every book and you are still not getting the results that you were hoping for? Whatever your situation is with your business, there is one thing that you need to learn and understand in order to succeed; and that is ?The Secret?.
The Secret is really quite simple, and this is not a new concept. In fact, it has been around since time began. The Secret is simply the law of attraction. The law of attraction is the law that determines exactly what you will get in your life because like attracts like. Your thoughts, the things that you desire, and the circumstances that you think about and feel, are the things, feelings and circumstances that you will attract in life. Like a magnet, you are attracting everything in your life with the thoughts in your own head. Your thoughts directly affect your actions and your actions affect your bottom line results.
The law of attraction is one of the most powerful laws in the universe. The law of attraction says that you attract everything that happens in your own life and the results that you have had up until now as well as the results that you will have in the future. Everything that is occurring in your life is due to this powerful law of attraction.
So, how can you apply The Secret and the law of attraction to your career and your real estate investing business? That?s very simple. Whatever you want out of your business, you can achieve once you have accepted the power that you have in your own mind.
You can apply the laws to your real estate investing business. Visualize your future living the lifestyle that you desire. Picture yourself living in that incredible dream house that you want, being able to afford that sports car that you have always wanted, and having the ability to send your children to the best private schools. Visualize your real estate business giving you everything that you want out of life. Whatever you want out of life, whatever wealth and prosperity looks like to you, picture it, visualize every last detail of it, and most importantly, believe it.
Once you have a picture in your head and are able to visualize yourself in the exact situation that you want, you must believe that you will achieve it and start to behave as if you are already living that life. The feelings that you put out about your future, will attract those feelings into existence because of the law of attraction.
Now that you know what you want to achieve with your real estate investing business, start small by focusing on your next property acquisition. Visualize the exact details and the type of property that you want to find. Focus on what it looks like, where it is located, what the neighborhood looks like. Visualize the monthly passive income this property will bring into your life and what this income will do for you and your family.
Believe it or not, because of the law of attraction, the universe will actually rearrange itself in order to bring your thoughts into existence, and that is the power of The Secret. What you call into existence, the thoughts that you put out, will attract more of the same to you. You may not know how it is going to happen, but you do not need to worry yourself about these details. You need to trust yourself and your instincts because the law of attraction is a powerful law and you will attract what you are projecting.
You might even surprise yourself when you find that perfect property, the one that you have been visualizing. But realize that this is not a coincidence; it is the law of attraction at work.
The Secret can be used when it comes to every aspect of your real estate investing business. Are you looking for a buyer for one of your properties? Visualize that buyer writing you a check for the amount you are hoping to sell the property for. Are you planning a renovation on a property? Visualize the details and how it will look when you are finished; imagine how it will feel when you rent the property to those perfect tenants.
Take this a step further and start applying The Secret to all aspects of your real estate investing business. Do you see yourself owning hundreds of properties, or only a few? Visualize what you want from your business, focus on it, and live your life as if your business has already reached the level that you expect of it. The law of attraction will deliver to you, exactly what you expect. Before you know it, after applying these principles to your life, you will be living the life you always dreamed of, all because of knowing The Secret.
Trust me?These principles have changed my life and if you look at this as if it?s hokey, it?s too good to be true, it?s ridiculous, you will continue to get what you have always gotten and never get from where you are now to where you wish to be. However, if you are open-minded and simply apply these laws in your own life, you will be blessed beyond your dreams. Try it and see for yourself!
