Investing In Real Estate With Lex Levinrad

On this podcast episode I am talking about motivated sellers and why they sell their house at a discount to market value. Motivated sellers are willing to exchange price for convenience, meaning that they would rather just sell and have the cash in hand now, than wait for a few months to see if they can get a higher price by selling with a realtor. Why would someone be willing to sell their house for less than full market value? There could be many answers. They may not know what full market value is. Their house could be damaged and they may not be able to live in the house. Or they may have inherited the property from their parents and live in another State and may need to get cash fast to pay off bills or other obligations. Or they may be in foreclosure and are about to lose their home and want to save their credit. There could be many reasons why someone is motivated to sell. This is why we call them motivated sellers. Remember this one thing: If you want to wholesale, or fix and flip or buy rentals at a discount to market value then only buy houses from people that HAVE to sell, not from people that WANT to sell. I learned that from my mentor. On this episode I talk about a house that I am purchasing and closing on today from a seller that absolutely needs to move to another State. This seller is purchasing a house in the new State and needs the proceeds from this sale in order to close on the purchase of the other house. This seller was willing to trade price (take less) for the convenience of a quick cash closing. That is the essence of buying from motivated sellers. And we delivered by buying their house. We stuck to our guns on what we were willing to pay. They could have said no. But they said yes. They got what they wanted (cash in hand fast). And we got what we wanted (a rental property at a discount).

On this podcast episode I talk about turn key section 8 rental properties. I walk you through a case study of a rental property that we currently have listed on the MLS for sale for $60,000 to show you the numbers and the returns that are possible by investing in turn key section 8 rentals. In this case study the property can be purchased for $60,000 and would only require a down payment of $12,000 to purchase. After closing costs, the initial cash investment would be only $13,000 and the property would be managed and turn key (meaning you as an investor would not need to do anything). The Gross Annual Rental Income on this property is $8,400 and after factoring in mortgage payments property taxes, insurance, repairs, vacancy and property management this property would return $2,252 on the investment of $13,000 which is a 17.3% return.

On this podcast episode I talk about financial freedom and how real estate can help you achieve financial freedom. I also discuss why financial freedom is so difficult for most people. It starts with how we are raised, when our parents tell us to go to school, get good grades, and get a good job. And we listen to them. Fast forward twenty years, and you may find yourself feeling overworked, underpaid and at a job that you can't stand. Even worse, if you are like most Americans, you can't quit your job because you have bills to pay, credit card debt and almost no savings. You have fixed expenses that won't go away. Does this sound familiar? You need that job in order to pay those bills so you feel stuck. You are in what Robert Kiyosaki calls the "rat race" in his book "Rich Dad Poor Dad" (which you should read). So the first step towards financial freedom is to understand that your focus should be on INCREASING YOUR INCOME, not on decreasing your expenses. Focus your energy (and time) on increasing your income not clipping coupons or trading your time for money. When you start increasing your income and you make more money then you should make sure that you don't increase your spending by increasing your life style. Instead you should be saving this money in order to build up bucket # 2 which is the savings bucket. By building up this bucket, you will be able to move into bucket #3 which is the investment bucket. And the investment bucket is what will help you to increase your income and increase your net worth. When you increase your income and you increase your net worth, you move one step closer towards financial freedom. That is why I tell my students you are just one flip away from financial freedom. When the day comes that you make enough money from flipping houses that you can quit your job then you are truly free. The question is how attainable is that? The answer is very attainable. There are over 100,000 people that make $500,000 or more per year from investing in real estate in the U.S that are sole proprietors who have business with no employees. Obviously there are many more companies that invest in real estate that have many employees (like my company). When you add those numbers up there are hundreds of thousands of people in the U.S who made their income this year from flipping houses. You could be one of those people! So set that as a goal and then ask yourself this questions: What am I doing today, to create a life of financial freedom for myself tomorrow. Here is a tip: Watch less TV and listen to podcasts not music when you commute to work. Spend more time reading and learning and listening to podcasts. Listen to everything you can and learn something new every day. If you do this for 90 days, your life will begin to change.

This is the fourth and final podcast episode in the "Flipping Your First House" Podcast Series. If you have not already done so, please listen to Flipping Your First House Parts 1 through 3 before you listen to this podcast episode. On the previous podcast episode (Flipping Your First House Part 3) I spoke about the types of mail pieces that you can use to mail out which were: 1. White Letters 2. Yellow Letters 3. Postcards On this podcast episode I am talking about mailing lists, types of mailing lists and how to obtain mailing lists. You need to have a list of homeowners in order to be able to implement direct mail. The first part of the direct mail process is to create a list. On this podcast episode I talk about the types of lists that you can get by using sites like: http://www.listsource.com and http://www.listability.com You can create lists of absentee homeowners, probate, tax delinquent, code enforcement violations, evictions foreclosures etc. Some of these lists can be created by registering with the sites above but some lists need to be created by obtaining the list directly from your County Court House or County Property Appraiser Web Site. You can also obtain specialized lists from different sources for example we get our probate and tax delinquent list from http://www.rebogateway.com and we get our inherited list from http://www.usleadlist.com. There are many sources of direct mail and we pay top dollar for customized mail lists and for list stacking of different lists where the homeowner may have multiple pain points. For example absentee homeowners that live out of state and that are also delinquent on their property taxes would be an example of a homeowner with multiple pain points. In our experience, the most motivated sellers have multiple pain points and really need to sell fast. Once you download your list into a spreadsheet format (CSV), you can email that spreadsheet file to your mail house, and the mail house can print and mail your mail piece (postcards or yellow letters or white letters). If you want to learn how to put together a direct mail campaign, and the components of a direct mail campaign, then watch the video that I put together for you that explains the process at: http://www.lexlevinrad.com/directmail If you are brand new to real estate and want to learn more about how to wholesale real estate and flip houses then please register for the free wholesaling real estate training at this link below: FREE WHOLESALING TRAINING https://www.lexlevinrad.com/webinar FIXING AND FLIPPING TRAINING If you want to learn how to fix and flip houses I have a fix and flip training webinar at this link: https://www.lexlevinrad.com/fixandflipwebinar DON'T FORGET TO SUBSCRIBE TO THIS PODCAST TO BE NOTIFIED OF UPDATES SUBSCRIBE TO MY YOUTUBE CHANNEL http://www.youtube.com/lexlevinrad?sub_confirmation=1 CONNECT WITH ME ONLINE http://www.lexlevinrad.com http://www.facebook.com/lexlevinradrealestate http://www.twitter.com/lexlevinrad http://www.instagram.com/lexlevinrad http://www.linkedin.com/in/lexlevinrad http://www.pinterest.com/lexlevinrad https://plus.google.com/+LexLevinradrealestate DOWNLOAD A FREE COPY OF MY BOOK ON WHOLESALING PROPERTIES For more real estate tips about property investment, investing in real estate, and how to start wholesaling, download a FREE copy of my best selling book "Wholesaling Bank Owned Properties" at https://www.lexlevinrad.com

This is the fourth and final podcast episode in the "Flipping Your First House" Podcast Series. If you have not already done so, please listen to Flipping Your First House Parts 1 through 3 before you listen to this podcast episode. On the previous podcast episode (Flipping Your First House Part 3) I spoke about the types of mail pieces that you can use to mail out which were: 1. White Letters 2. Yellow Letters 3. Postcards On this podcast episode I am talking about mailing lists, types of mailing lists and how to obtain mailing lists. You need to have a list of homeowners in order to be able to implement direct mail. The first part of the direct mail process is to create a list. On this podcast episode I talk about the types of lists that you can get by using sites like: http://www.listsource.com and http://www.listability.com You can create lists of absentee homeowners, probate, tax delinquent, code enforcement violations, evictions foreclosures etc. Some of these lists can be created by registering with the sites above but some lists need to be created by obtaining the list directly from your County Court House or County Property Appraiser Web Site. You can also obtain specialized lists from different sources for example we get our probate and tax delinquent list from http://www.rebogateway.com and we get our inherited list from http://www.usleadlist.com. There are many sources of direct mail and we pay top dollar for customized mail lists and for list stacking of different lists where the homeowner may have multiple pain points. For example absentee homeowners that live out of state and that are also delinquent on their property taxes would be an example of a homeowner with multiple pain points. In our experience, the most motivated sellers have multiple pain points and really need to sell fast. Once you download your list into a spreadsheet format (CSV), you can email that spreadsheet file to your mail house, and the mail house can print and mail your mail piece (postcards or yellow letters or white letters).

This is the third podcast episode in the "Flipping Your First House" Series. Please make sure that you listen to the "Flipping Your First House" Parts 1 and 2 podcast episodes BEFORE you listen to this episode (which is part 3). On the previous two podcast episodes I spoke about direct mail and marketing to motivated sellers. I discussed action steps to get started and how to incorporate a direct mail campaign into your real estate marketing. I also spoke about your marketing budget, tracking your performance, call tracking and key performance indicators (KPI's) you should be keeping track of. On this podcast episode I am talking about the types of direct mail that you can mail out to motivated sellers. I break this down into three major categories: 1. White Letters 2. Yellow Letters 3. Postcards I speak about the pros and cons of each method including the mailing costs associated with each method and the results. Direct mail works. Don't let anyone tell you that it doesn't. I can tell you for a fact that the largest house buyers in the country all have massive direct mail campaigns. As a new real estate investor it is important for you to understand that the most important thing for you to do as a new investor is to start taking action steps instead of thinking about taking action steps. Don't get caught in paralysis analysis. Start taking action steps that will create revenue for you in the near or immediate future. Once you start making money, then you can start scaling. Remember the ultimate goal is financial freedom. And in order to have financial freedom you need to be making money (and lots of it). Direct mail is a great action step to take if you are looking to get started in real estate.
