The Right Side of the Desk: To Chase or Not To Chase People
August 27th, 2008I was fortunate enough to have some great real estate investing mentors over my career as a real estate investor and one of my mentors, the late Brent Grove, taught me the importance of being on the right side of the desk.
He taught me that you should set up your business to have people come to you and ask you if you want to buy their house. You do not want to chase people and ask them if they will sell you their house. There is quite a bit of subtlety to this business philosophy, which I will explore in this article.

Let's Talk About The Money - FREE Real Estate Course Donwload
August 26th, 2008I just put up a new free real estate course download on the Wholesaler Control Panel for all our investors called: Let's Talk About The Money.

- Traditional
- Owner Financing
- "Subject To"
- Hard Money
- Private Money
- Lease Options
- Lease (to sub lease) With No Option

- Needs for cash:
- Buying for cash
- Down payment with Owner Financing
- Make Up Back Payments
- Repairs on Pretty Houses
- Repairs on Ugly Houses
- Paying Seller Equity When Buying "Subject To"
- Holding Costs When Buying "Subject To" When Finding Tenant Buyers
- Major Repairs With Rentals

Assignment of Contract Versus Double Closings
August 26th, 2008You have found a great deal and you are ready to wholesale it, but how does your buyer actually close with your seller?
Well, there are two ways to do it: assignment or double closing. In this article, I will discuss each one.
First, let's look at how an assignment might work. You find the deal and put it under contract to purchase it from your seller. In the purchase contract, you negotiate the right to assign your contract. Then, once you find your investor buyer, you fill out an assignment of contract form and help facilitate the closing of the deal with your seller and your buyer. Often, but not always, you are paid an assignment fee at the closing. Sometimes it's classified as a fee to clear title.
Some of the advantages of this are

Finding A Great Title Company
August 25th, 2008Most of the creative transactions we do as real estate investors are not normal for title, closing, or escrow companies. I will only refer to title companies from here on out since that is what we use here in Colorado, but the process of finding a good one is the same for all three.
Title companies typically work with real estate agents and brokers and tend to do a lot of very traditional transactions, however, as investors, it's important that we find a title company that understands what we are doing and can accommodate some of our more unusual requests.
So, how do we find a title company that caters to investors and some of our more creative real estate transactions? The simple answer is
