Do Not Be Conservative with Your ARV! Jun 11, 2020

Transactional real estate engineers must never be conservative with their ARV. What is ARV? ARV stands for “after repaired value.” It means the potential value of a property and not the value as-is.

In this episode, learn about ARVs, what we look at when doing comps, and how to find comps in the boonies. Discover how to approach a seller when they ask for 20% down for a $30k house that needs work or sellers asking way over market value. Gain skills to follow up with incoming leads.

Cast the Net Wide and Get Your First Deal Jan 07, 2020

Ever wonder how to get real estate deals done faster?

In this episode, Blair and Jeff talk about the benefits of joining the “Done for you” program and give us a business update. They have eight contracts of remote deals waiting to be signed. They have figured a way to get them signed and back faster!

Having a meeting at the house with the seller in person is very important because it forces them to make a decision. Simulate that in-person meeting using a mobile notary.

Another thing they emphasize is when broadening and geographically targeting your real estate business on Facebook with the motivated ads, the lead costs drops dramatically. Sometimes it runs as low as three dollars per lead; their target is twelve to fifteen different states throughout the Southeast and Midwest.

They also talk about how difficult it is to generate leads when advertising through digital marketing in competitive markets. Learn why it’s best to start with cheaper leads to gain practice, and when doing business locally, do a lot of networking.

They go over the standard purchase and sales agreement and tackle in-depth two things: how to fill in the contract when buying a property subject-to with an existing mortgage and how to negotiate a low purchase price for a property in foreclosure and with some equity. The secret is using a net equity worksheet to define real numbers and split the profit with the seller.

Once You Hit The First Deal, You Are On The Roll Nov 14, 2019

In this episode, Blair and Jeff talk about how to find a buyer for an expensive property. How can you capture equity upfront plus the spread between lease payment and mortgage payment, and paying it on the back end? Hear some possible scenarios for markets that have mortgage payments higher than rent payments, expensive houses in depressed areas, signing and closing a subject-to deal under contract, and sellers falling in bankruptcy and cram-downs. They also talk about a buyers list vs finding a house for a buyer, opening cold call scripts, the benefits of door knocking, and how to start off a deal with little funds.
