Real Estate Investing Guide:Real Deal Killers

There’s a lot of deal killers that you’ve got to keep your eyes peeled for or else you’ll say “another deal down the tubes.” Some of these deal killers can include attorneys, realtors, and other investors.
However, I’m not going to touch those in this article. I want to go over one of the deal killers I see many investors making that have no clue there making… Talking numbers to quick.
The fact is you’ll dig yourself an early grave as investor by going in for the kill to early by talking about the house numbers. More often than not, investors talk money to quickly when meeting with sellers. And as a result, the seller’s door will shut, while the investor may never get the second opportunity.
So, you wanna increase your profits and the likelihood of getting an offer accepted?
Then get the motivated seller to like you first. When they like you, they’ll feel they can relate to you and a certain level of trust is earned and thus your chances of getting the deal closed just drastically increased.
Use the phone as much as possible to collect enough data to see if the deal is worthwhile, but when you meet in person, it’s better to get to know the seller and find a common ground before you ever talk about the house and the house numbers.
It’s better to back away from the money issue all together and build a strong rapport right from the gate. A couple of years ago, I was assisting a knucklehead investor in another market that was looking at a deal that had about $40K in equity. He’d met with the owners and got nowhere, so he called me to see if I’d meet with them for a percentage of the deal.
At the time, I had a few deals in the works in this area myself, so I agreed. He’d met with these people already and they’d talked by phone on several occasions but he couldn’t land the deal. I spent a little over an hour and learned more in that hour than he knew after three or four meetings. I took an interest in them by listening to their family history, how many kids they had, and yes I walked away with the deed. They did the deal because they trusted me because I invested in them first.
Make sense?
This is so simple to do, yet often overlooked. I know you can pull this off, so listen up.
Look for items that you can make small conversation with to build a level of rapport. Here’s a brief list:
- Awards on wall - Vehicles in Drive - Children pictures on wall - Diplomas displayed on wall - Artwork
It’s literally amazing how much you can learn by just looking at the walls and walking up the driveway. When walking up to the door, pay close attention to the gutters, the way front door looks, the mailbox, and the landscaping. Does it look overgrown, does it look in need of repairs. If so, the seller could be facing some financial hardships. Just be aware of what’s going on by observing what you see with your own two eyes. This alone could open the door for you conversationally plus let you know what type of situation the seller may be in.

Real estate investing does not have to be complicated!

Real estate investing does not have to be complicated
Do you know what is the hardest deal to ever do in real estate?
Your first one!
The challenge is that most people will quit before ever getting their first deal.
I also feel that there is sooooooo much information available in the marketplace that even getting started is almost as challenging as getting your first deal!
I think one of the reasons for this is there are so many ways to invest in real estate!
Do I buy No Money Down?
Do I invest in Foreclosures or Pre-foreclosures?
Do I invest in “Fixer Uppers?”
Do I do “Flips”?
Do I adopt a “Buy and Hold?”
Do I Lease-Purchase or Lease option?
Do I buy “Subject to” the existing financing?
Do I buy Single-family homes? Condos? Mobile Homes? Apartment buildings?
You get the idea! There are so many ways to invest in real estate today!
Ok, let’s say you’re lucky to pick one way to invest in real estate, let’s say Foreclosures.
There seems to be a hundred ways to do a foreclosure deal!
Now, in addition to finding your first foreclosure deal, you then have to figure out which of the hundred ways to do that deal!
I still wince in pain whenever I see a real estate program that has anywhere from 12 to 36 CD’s or audio tapes!
Who really has the time to go through all of that information?
And even if you make time, can you say, “Information OVERLOAD”?
We always said that we did not want to learn 100 ways to do a real estate deal but one simple, proven way that would take us to the bank!
When we wrote “Buy With No Credit–How to Make Money This Month in Real Estate” it was with the belief that people would appreciate a course that simply “cut to the chase” and taught one simple method (no credit checks and $1-10.00 down) to invest in real estate.
Something so simple that anyone could read it in a day and begin contacting homeowners the very same night!
We appreciate people that do not “Mickey Mouse” around and are direct and to the point!
So our strongest recommendation is to find one way to invest in real estate and then pay the price and really learn that one method.
Vickie and I recently went to our first “bootcamp” (yes we believe in continuing education)
During this 3 day event, there were 7 “guest speakers” and these speakers all had an upcoming “boot camp” they were promoting. The thing that blew us away was all the people who signed up for those additional “bootcamps”.
We saw some folks that signed up for every one!
I wanted to scream out, “What about the information that was being presented this weekend?!”
When would these people ever have time to implement the strategies they were learning that weekend?
The reality is that most people would rather write a check then to take action!
So the only action they have in a year is going from Bootcamp to Bootcamp, a massive credit card bill, and to officially be a “jack of all trades” in real estate!
Do not try to be a “jack of all trades” in real estate!
Jacks of all trades in real estate never make the money that the specialist will!
Let me ask you a question: Who makes the most money in the health field? Is it the General Practitioner (Family doctor) or the Specialist?
The Specialist, of course!
Choose this day to become a specialist in one area in real estate and then apply yourself to becoming a Specialist in that one method!
Once you have mastered that one method, then and only then, you can diversify and learn another method.
A word of warning:
When choosing a course or training program on any real estate method, do not confuse the price of the program with the value of the program.
Just because a program is a lot of money does not mean that it has more value than a less expensive program.
Case in point: One of our students spent $12,000 with a “real estate mentor” and was frustrated because it was like he was spinning his wheels.
He ordered our course for the special price of $97 and within 4 weeks was closing deals on his first 2 properties!
Remember this and remember it well… The value a real estate course or training program has nothing to do with the price!
Just because it is expensive does not make it automatically better than a more affordable course.
The value is only determined by the impact the course or training program has on that person!
This is absolutely critical!
