I did a 90 minute webinar with Chris Johnson last night and I couldn't wait to get up this morning to get a replay out to everyone.  Chris had a ton of great information and it is amazing to me how well his students have done at raising capital for their real estate and their businesses. 

I hope you enjoy it and take some good notes on what Chris is teaching so you can get some government cash too.

Short Sales, the MLS and Craigslist Rentals - Episode 184

This week is a listener mail week where we answer your burning real estate investing questions. If you have a question make sure you click on "Questions" on the top of the page and leave us your question.  If we read your question on the show you will have your choice of 2 really cool gifts from us valued at over $200!

Today's questions were...

"I have seen MLS listings for short sales that say one of the following:
1. Subject to Lender Approval - this is pretty obvious.
2. SHORT SALE with approval or we have approval price from bank  - Does this mean the approval price might be different from the listed sales price, and that the approval price is the only price the bank will accept?  Should I even consider trying to negotiate less than the approval price?
I am basically trying to determine when it is appropriate to offer less than the listed sales price." from Cheryl B

and...

"I'm a buy and hold investor looking for ways to maximize my time with advertising my rentals. Currently I have 61 units and was wondering if you have any tips on how to keep my Craigslist ads near the top of the list without having yo delete the ad and rewrite it. Or do you know of any software tools that help you post rental ads?" from Cory B (no relation to Cheryl)

Working Short Sales with Realtors - Bob Massey

I had a great conversation with Bob Massey on how to harness the time and knowledge of realtors to help you find and work short sale deals.  If you ever thought you didn't want to get into the short sale market because...

  • You don't have the time
  • Don't want to visit distressed sellers
  • Don't have the money to work the deal
  • Can't meet with a BPO agent
  • Wouldn't know where to find buyers

Then you need to listen very carefully to this interview. Plus at the end there is a great Q&A session with awesome questions from those that were live on the webinar.

Episode 14 – Lease Options, Foreclosures and Part-Time Investing

Today’s Question was…

“I am a fairly new investor with a full-time job. I bought two properties in 2008 before my daughter was born, and haven’t purchased anything since. I work a regular 9-5 and take care of my daughter at nights and on weekends. I am determined to purchase at least one property this year by enlisting the help of others as much as I can to help make up for my lack of time. However, I was wondering what advice you have for investors with little time to go out and look at houses. Any courses you recommend I look at?” – JT

Episode 11 - How to Analyze Comparable Sales

It's Viewer Question Friday and we had a very good question from Janiro...

"When finding 3 properties does the structure have to be the same, for instance when I researched my subject property on zillow the comparable properties were within the one mile radius, they had similar square footage as well as the same amount of bedrooms and bathrooms.  However, I noticed that my property was wood with a 2 car detached garage, but the other properties were all brick with attached garages. Is that ok or should I find more properties?”

There are Four Main items you need to consider when developing good comparable sales, they include...

  1. Make sure you are comparing similar homes in square footage and bed and baths.
  2. Try to find homes of similar quality so an unupdated 1970’s home is not the same as a home across the street that was recently remodeled.
  3. Try to find 3 homes within a mile of your property with similar neighborhoods and sold in the last 6 months.
  4. Only ever compare sold homes and not homes listed for sale.

If you haven’t heard HUD has a proposed ruling where they would like to eliminate seller financing except for those that live in the home being financed or those with a mortgage originators license.  This would hurt real estate investors and home buyer’s alike.  Let HUD know that you think this is a bad idea.  They are taking comments on the ruling.

Episode 6 - Changes to HAMP May Mean 2nd Lien Holders are Willing to Play Ball on Short Sales

On Friday Bank of America agreed to work with the federal government on their second lien holder plan in the HAMP program.  This means that they will start to work with mortgage companies who hold the first mortgage on properties in loan modification deals.  Reducing the second mortgage payment can help a lot of homeowners qualify under the governments criteria that they only pay 31% of their gross income to housing.  Just as importantly for us it may signal the beginning of better relationships between banks on short sales.  Maybe this is finally our chance to get both of them to play nice and get our smoking hot short sale deals where there are two lien holders approved!

The number of bank owned homes has skyrocketed in the last few years. With so much inventory it has become important for banks and corporate owners to come up with alternative methods to selling homes other than just on the MLS. Amy Bates, SVP of Marketing at Williams & Williams Auctions, one of the premier auction companies in the country, shared with us the inside information on how auctions work.

Amy explained the whole process and benefits of buying homes post-foreclosure at the auction including...

  • The ability to inspect the property during an open house well before the auction.
  • The property has already gone through the foreclosure process and title has been cleared.
  • You have 30 days after an accepted offer to close on the property
  • Auctions can lead to competitive prices for buyers to pick up good deals.
  • With a large reputable firm you have confidence in the purchase process

Social Media and Real Estate Investing

You can't turn on your computer or t.v. without hearing something about tweeting this or checking out so and so's Facebook page. It is true, social media is here to stay. Many business owners are finding it a great way to connect with their customers. Many investors haven't really harnessed the power of these tools. Just about every realtor I know that is working the business hard is doing something with Twitter. There are even continuing education classes offered for realtors to learn how to use it properly.

On today's show we share with you some of the basics of how you as a real estate investor can capitalize on these free services to do so many things from finding homes to networking to build your team and bring in the leads, maybe even sell or rent a house.

Get started by Following us on Twitter and becoming our friend on Facebook.

John Hyre

It isn't often that we have a guest on that can help you learn how to get up to $8,000 from the IRS but that is what John is going to do on today's show.  He is going to help you learn how to sell your homes, finally, to qualified buyers.  If you are thinking that you can't get anyone qualified through a bank for a mortgage then that is fine.  This is your chance to sell on land contract and still get the tax credit.  What a deal!
