Top Secret: How to Find the Best Deals

Write a LOT of offers.

First, find some homes for sale. If you are only looking in one place, there are more properties listed on the MLS than at any other time in history. What makes you think that some of the sellers who have listed their properties aren't willing to take the ridiculous offer you present to them?

The true secret is that there are hundreds, nay, thousands of sellers who are willing to pass along the equity in their property directly to you. All you have to do is ask.

So, the secret wisdom of success in real estate investing is to find a market you like and make a lot of offers to purchase the properties that fit your criteria.

Now is your chance! Go and experience success in investing!

Make Big Plans!

...so you know when you've "made it".

As I approach creating this post I have burdened myself with the feeling that I have to come off sounding like an expert real estate investor. Let me remind you (and me), I'm not. I'm relatively (ha! terribly) new at this game.

I've got a renter. I'm an active Realtor. I know what good deals look like on paper. (Cool bonus) I work with expert investors who are gracious enough to mentor me. And, I've got a lot to learn.

Here are some of my goals to accomplish before the end of the year:

  • Get a book keeper
  • Purchase and fill a rental property cash flowing $200/mo
(How lame.)

Go make some goals!

Invitation to Finding Hot Deals in Real Estate

In case you didn’t know, we are at the beginning of a very exciting Real Estate market for investors.

(And, if you do nothing else today go to this site www.SecondRateHomes.com.)

With the shift in lender market and the subsequent elimination of hundreds of sub-prime loan options, would-be home buyers are left looking for a home to rent. Not to mention all those who have lost their homes to Foreclosure…who now have cash from the months of unpaid mortgage payments lining their pockets. They are ready to put that money down as an Option Fee until they can get their credit back in order.

Now is the time to make your move! Especially with the news that even more Foreclosure homes will be on the market than ever before.

But just because there are a lot of properties that are on the market, you must ask, “How do I find the BEST deals?”

As a Realtor, I know there are plenty of deals to be found on the MLS.

I’ve seen owners all but give away their homes with the first offer they receive. Also, I’ve seen lenders sell foreclosure properties leaving thousands of dollars of equity on the table.

I want to put those deals at your fingertips.

(This site is focused on the Metro East Real Estate Market. I would be happy to collaborate with agents and investors in other markets to create a site dedicated to locating RE Deals in your market!)

What I have done is searched the entire MLS and ran calculations to determine all the undervalued and overlooked properties in St. Clair and Madison County, Illinois in order to identify the Hottest Deals in real estate.

And guess what…I Found Them!!!

The best part is that this list of Hot Deals is available to you 24/7 on my website www.SecondRateHomes.com
