Are There Easier Ways To Make Money In Real Estate Than This?

A couple of weeks ago, I was flipping channels when I caught a glimpse of some guy busting down doors of tenants, fat chicks getting naked, a woman beating the hell outta her husband and more.
It’s all a new little show on SpikeTV called Worlds Worst Tenants and from what I can gather the show is basically re-enactments to actual stories of troubled tenants.

Even though it’s acting, it’s pretty dang interesting show and reminds me of some of the weird encounters I’ve had when I owned rental property…

The fact is there’s a lot easier ways to make in real estate than banging your head against the wall with troubled tenants…

SIMS Review And Bonus Package

Freedomsoft

Alright – by now you’ve heard a little something about Greg Clement’s SIMS 2.0, so let’s cut right to the chase with my official review of SIMS Profits and my exclusive SIMS Bonus package.  Ready?

SIMS is Closed!

First things first, when SIMS goes live there will be 2 different options for you…

The first option is the SIMS 2.0 Training and System which consist of the following:

  • You get 8 Training Modules along with 10 weeks of in depth coaching.  Each module is like an entire advanced real estate course by itself.  Here’s a breakdown of the 8 Modules:
  1. Module # 1 – Websites, Squeeze Pages, & Blogs - Even though the SIMS system will do most of this for you – this training is to help you understand how to run your real estate business with internet systems.  If you’re not web or tech savvy – don’t worry because the SIMS system will do most of this for you :)
  2. Module # 2 – Video Marketing. In this training, they’ll show you how to create videos to help you get  top search engine rankings, and more views driving massive amounts of traffic to your websites.  They’ll show you everything you need from equipment, to scripts, to using video to rank high in the search engines.
  3. Module # 3- Web 2.0 & Social Networking.  In this training, they’ll show you how to implement a Social Media strategy.  Since this is really the new medium that everyone seems to be buzzing about – it’s important that you integrate this right from the beginning.  You’ll see how to set up your social media accounts – which ones are the best and how to use it to build trust with your leads.
  4. Module # 4  -Influence & Persuasion. This training is all about conversions and how to use psychological triggers in your ads and negotiations.
  5. Module # 5 – Traffic - Probably the most important of all the trainings in my opinion.  Because if you fail to get traffic or leads, then you don’t really have a business.  And I really think they did a good job of giving you a plan to get traffic or increase traffic to your sites covering everything from Free Traffic (SEO) and paid traffic.
  6. Module # 6 – The Property Launch Formula - This one module of the entire SIMS package is worth the investment.  This one strategy will help you build a huge list of buyers.  And you’ll stand out from all the other competitors because no one else is doing this…  This technique is taking the concepts from Jeff Walker’s Product Launch Formula and applying it to real estate investing for selling houses fast.
  7. Module # 7 – Mobile Marketing - I was a Yanik’s Underground Seminar back in the spring and this is the new wave that everyone was buzzing about.  Think about it just for a second – how many people have mobile phones they use while they drive – checking facebook status and texting?  I’m definitely against the whole text and drive thing but I see it everyday.  We have gone nuts with the phones and in this module, Greg will show you how to capitalize on it.
  8. Module # 8 – Affiliate Income Streams - This module is huge because it shows you how to make money without even selling a house. Once you build a list of buyers and sellers – you can make money without even doing a deal through affiliate marketing.  Out of 100 prospective buyers – at best you’re only going to have 2- 3 that will make the cut- so what do you do with the other 98%?  Greg shows you how to profit from this other income stream.
  • Interactive Calls Based On Each Module
  • The Software which is Based on Open Road
  • 2 Tickets To SIMS Stock in San Diego where you get to work with Greg Clement and Jeff Walker for 4 days.
  • The SIMS System which comes with 21 Money Getting Websites
  • And you have 30 days to test it out…

This option for SIMS 2.0 is $1997

Now the 2nd option they have available is called SMP which stands for SIMS Marketing Partnership -

This option is definitely not for everyone – it’s for those that really want to get serious about doing deals and taking action.

You get everything that was listed above and the following -

  • You get a Certified SIMS Consultant to work with your for 90 days.  I’m sure this is if you have any questions and to make sure you implement and take action.
  • Global Traffic Systems for top rankings in all major search engines.
  • The Local Branding Package to position yourself as the local area expert.
  • Sell Point Local Leader is something to give you first access to deals that come trough Sellpoint
  • Center of Influence Web Video Marketing System 10 long term list building videos
  • SMP Social Media System
  • A SIMS Certified VA or Training Program for your assistant
  • Done For Your Webinar Marketing System!

This package is for those looking to do more hands off and getting the system done for you.  I personally can’t give you an opinion on this package because I’ve not seen this package or taken part in it.

However, as I said before I know Greg and I know that if you put this to the test and it doesn’t work for you – then they’ll take care of you.

The price of SMP is $3997

Here’s My Take On It…

My opinion on SIMS is that it’s a great product, the technology is sound, and most importantly – I know these guys will take care of you…

Now with that being said – I don’t have a clue of what your financial picture looks like..

Only you can decide if you believe this works for you.  I’m simply here to offer my opinion and I give this package by highest recommendation…

I want to make it even better for you though with my official …

3 Quick Tips For Your Exit Strategy

When you’re just starting out investing in real estate – one of the most important things you want to know is your exit strategy.

How in the world do you plan to get out of the deal?

Sure it’s one heck of an adrenaline rush when you’re wrapping up a deal, day dreaming about the potential profit, the wind blowing in your hair while you cruise with the top down in your newly purchased ride or the delight you’ll get by giving your boss the middle finger because now you’re a real estate investor…

Hold on just a second – you’re only half way there.

Knowing how to get out of the deal is more important than any other thing you’ll learn as a real estate investor.

It’s easy to get into deal – especially nowadays – people are begging for options.

So, I want to give you 3 quick tips for nailing down your exit strategy so you’re not left holding the bag…

Exit Strategy Quick Tip # 1 – A Bird In The Hand Is Better Than Two In The Bush.

Have you heard this before?

It means if you’ve got a buyer today – take it.  It’s better than waiting on another buyer that will possibly bring you more money than the current buyer.

Wrap the deal up and move on to the next one.  There’s no shortage of deals, so turn your quick profit, and move on to the next deal.

Exit Strategy Quick Tip # 2: Target Your Marketing

Most everyone talks about marketing for motivated sellers, however you’ve got to have a separate marketing system in tact to attract buyers.   And remember the message must match the target market.  So, for example – let’s say you’ve got several wholesale deals lined up and all you need is buyers.  Appeal to the investor with your ad that says something like this:

Must Sell – Motivated Seller
3BR 2Ba, Brick Home In Your City
Appraised at $80K, Asking $45K.
Needs Work. Call XXX-XXXX

or you could say – Call our 24 Hour Property Hotline Toll Free at 1-800-XXX-XXXX

Investors are mainly looking at the numbers – so craft your ad to appeal to their greed.  By the way – what does every Real Estate Info Guru teach to look for when looking at House For Sale Ads?

The words – must sell, motivated seller, facing foreclosure.  You’ll get bombarded with buyers when using these words in your ads.

Exit Strategy Quick Tip # 3: Build A List.

The quicker you can start building a list of buyers, the more financially secure you’ll be.  For starters, I would recommend targeting investor buyers for several reasons -

1- they’re actively looking for houses.

2 – they can come up with the cash

3 – they don’t care what the deal looks like cosmetically.

Now – when I say build a list, I’m primarily referring to building your online email buyer’s list.

You’ll need your own real estate investor website which I show you how to build your own if your on a shoestring budget.  You can access those tutorials by clicking here.

Next, for $20 a month, you can get an aweber account to collect your prospects information so that you can send email newsletters, built in autoresponder messages, and continue to communicate with them with just a click of a mouse.

I recommend Aweber because it works.  After testing numerous autoresponder – email service providers, Aweber has the best deliverability hands down and you can test it with a 30 day trial for only $1 by clicking here.

Once you build your email list of highly targeted buyers – you’re well on your way to having the ability to sell houses in a matter of minutes.

Getting Accurate Values and Why Agents Lie

A few days ago, I sent you my top 5 resources for determining property value without leaving home.

And while these are important to save time – it should not be a substitute for knowing your market.

Getting away from the computer and getting real – accurate values and knowing exactly what’s happening.

You’ll be surprised that after a little bit of research and work from a couple of weekends- you’ll become familiar with your market, the current trends, and what to expect – and it will become second nature. It’s not hard – it’s just a matter of looking at the numbers.

You’ll learn more about your market by just getting out on a Sunday afternoon, taking a drive and looking at properties, pulling fliers from homes for sale, calling Realtors – just getting familiar with neighborhoods.

If we’re analyzing a deal we’ll want to look at the following:

* the comparable sales that have sold within the last 6 months (preferably 90 days)-
* current homes for sale in close proximity
* the square footage
* the age of the home
* the style (does it match other homes in the neighborhood)
* The Days on Market of the others for sale

I explain it in this new video along with why some Real Estate Agents Lie…

5 Free Resources for Determining Market Value

Determining the market value of a property is more important now than ever before. You’re either going to know your numbers or you’ll get killed when you actually start  investing in real estate.

There’s no other option. Period.

And the good ‘ole intranet has made it easier for you and I to determine a property’s value, and even look at the exterior of a home without even leaving the house.

While there’s no substitute for knowing your own market and being clear on what’s happening in your own area.

These resources will help you to do your initial research to get a ballpark figure of what the home may be worth…

Without any more chit chat – here My Top 5 Free Resources for determining a property’s value (and in no particular order).

#1 Bank of America Home Appraisal

#2 Chase Home Value Estimator

# 3 Cyberhomes

# 4 eappraisal.com

This service also includes a Google Map of the property and pulls the estimates from Zillow and  Cyberhomes too.

# 5 Zillow.com

I want to emphasize that I use these tools for my initial research to quickly sift through the dead leads so that I can focus my energy and time on the deals that look to have potential.

These 5 resources should only be used to get a “ballpark” figure and nothing concrete.

Remember, this is a numbers game.

…And the quicker you can throw out the dead deals and focus on the deals that will actually make you money -then you’re on your way to faster, bigger paydays…
