1. Why Real Estate Investment?

Why all the talk about real estate investing? A lot of reasons.
1. Well, for starters, investments in real estate has produced wealth
for millions of average Americans.
2. It's simple, it's easy to understand, real estate investment
property is tangible.
3. Real estate holds its value pretty well, often grows in value at a
pace faster than inflation.
4. Your real estate investments are capable of producing phenomenal
profits and returns on investment if bought and sold right (we'll talk
more about what "right" means).
5. Real estate investment properties could be a great rental cash flow
vehicle, you can get nice monthly payments that could potentially
replace your dependency on a paycheck
6. Investing in real estate has a residual income potential: you do the
work once and continue to get paid many months and years later.
7. Real estate can provide high rate of return, maintenance and
management free investments for people who've already accumulated cash
- by investing in mortgages secured by real estate, or buy creating
your own note with owner financing.
8. Finally, real estate investments have preferential tax treatment
allowing for valuable write-offs, and tax deferred treatment for
profits from capital gains on sale of the property.

2. Common Misconceptions About Real Estate Investing

Typically, the main argument of real estate 'nay-sayers' is by
associating real estate investments with toilets, bad tenants, damages,
evictions, etc. - all the bad things that may happen to an investor
getting ready to jump into the real estate game.
For somebody who believes the only thing to real estate is getting a
loan and buying a run-down duplex in a bad part of town real estate
could certainly turn into a major nightmare very quickly. However, an
individual open to possibilities and willing to learn will quickly
discover - that's not the way to be doing real estate.
Much more profitable strategies exist for doing business without
management headaches, without having to deal with bad clientele, and
without having to constantly worry about how often one's tenants clean
their toilets.
Modern real estate thrives on doing things smarter, not harder.

3. Disadvantages Of Investing In Rental Real Estate Properties

One of the major disappointments of the conventional, 'rental' approach
is there's just no money in it NOW, only after a long period of
ownership.
There's not enough spread between the income from rent and the expenses
of mortgage payments and repairs for the investor to make any money
today.
You barely get by in the early years of your ownership of the property.
You've got to have other income to support your lifestyle, you can't
just count on the rentals to support you.
Most likely, in the beginning you'll be supporting your properties with
your other income. That's not too attractive.
Yes, if you stick to it, there's a pot of gold at the end of the
rainbow. In fact, I will be selling one of my rental properties within
next year or so, at a profit of $172,000.
That's a lot of money for most of the population of the United States.
Bought it for $128,000 and today's market value is $300,000.
But it took long 8 years of management and maintenance headaches. Trust
me, these were REAL headaches: vandalism, fire, evictions, rent loss,
repairs, etc.
A lot of us don't have the stomach to endure the rough and tough
financial stresses of the rental business. Even more people don't have
the desire to. I certainly didn't enjoy it.

4. Becoming a Successful Real Estate Investor

Working smarter, not hard is the key. The good news is, there are
better and faster ways to make money with real estate. I discovered
them while waiting for my rentals to increase in value so I could sell
them.
For instance, not long before writing this issue (this issue was
published in May 2001) I sold 4 homes with a gross profit of about
$160,000. All of these homes I bought in the preceding 90 days.
That's not bad for 90 days of work. In reality, however, I didn't spend
but 8 hours of work into each transaction. If you ask me that's a high
rate of pay for some 40 hours of work.
I've only been to each of these homes once or twice: first to sign the
purchase contract with the Sellers and then to check upon the
completion of remodeling by my contractors.
I've exchanged a few e-mail messages with several prospective
purchasers. I spent a few hours in front of my computer preparing the
paperwork and another hour or so to meet with each Buyer in my office
to sign the papers.
All my clients are nice people who are extremely happy to do business
with me and grateful to be able to benefit from my service.
However, a very important part of our relationship - it's not
Landlord/Tenant like. They'll never call me on the phone if something
breaks. I just don't want to hear about faulty toilets, leaky faucets,
A/C not cooling enough, etc.
I do deliver the homes in good repair and condition at the time of
sale, though. After that, it's Buyers' responsibility to take care of
them.

5. Attracting Financing For Real Estate Investment Projects

Show me the money!

That's the first question I always hear from the beginning investors:
Where do I get the money to buy homes? I need to finance my deals. I
ain't got any money, so how can I be successful in real estate?
Let's make one thing clear: You Don't Need To Have Your Own Money Or
Credit To Make A Ton Of Money With Real Estate.
Please note, I didn't say you don't need money or credit. I said you
don't need your own money or credit. Some strategies don't call for any
money - we'll talk about them in future issues.
Others do require some forms of financing. But you should be worried
about other things than your ability to get conventional financing,
when you start. You need to get good at understanding what a bargain
deal is, what a favorable financing is, and how to find bargain deals,
or deals with favorable financing.
Either one of these two will translate into profit very easily. Once
you get to that point - the money will flow to you. This is profound. I
didn't have money when I started and I still don't use my own money,
most of the time.
People with money are always looking for people with great safe ideas
and projects. And you'll be supplying those great projects. You'll find
the deals and then you use OPM - other people's money to fund the
deals. The money does have a way of finding its way to you, once you
have a reputation.
Real Life Example: What May Happen After You've Been In Real Estate
Investing Game For A While
Just a month ago, a man walked into my office with some serious dough.
He wanted to write me a $100,000 check on the spot and buy partial
interest in some of the deals I had in my pipeline.
Because he didn't have the "know how" to put these cash flowing deals
together. Most of my homes are producing a NET positive cash flow over
$400-$500 a month. That's after paying the mortgage.
For someone with the capital and no free time to work on putting these
deals together - it's a great opportunity to invest money at high
returns -- without having to do the hard part, creating the income
stream.
You shall be able to develop this kind of magnetic power over money
once you start learning and practicing your real estate skills.
In The Next Issue
- Two (2) powerful strategies for making money with real estate
investing - without maintenance and management hassle.

"Alex Gurevich's newsletter has been a God send to me. I use his
contracts and techniques in my lease options. I was able to find many
private lenders to help fund my offers and get them accepted. This
enabled me to make more offers that previously I had to pass on due to
lack of funds.

Also, I was able to pull some cash out of existing deals. Now I am
following up Alex's lead to make money on the Internet so that I have
multiple income streams. I am always eager to get correspondence from
Alex Gurevich, he has one of the most creative minds that I know. I
can't say enough about how he has helped me. Don't be skeptical,
believe what he says."

"Thanks a million to Alex Gurevich for this e-zine. The august one came
at just the right time for me. Two years ago, when I first got into
this business, I lease/optioned a house for $139,000 and then
lease/optioned it out to a tenant/buyer for $165,000.

Now they were ready with financing and I was feeling unsure about the
details of how to get a simultaneous closing done. I took a copy of you
e-zine to my closing agent and everything went like clockwork. My first
one. Thanks again."
