Real Estate Investor reveals how you can....

Stop Investing Blindfolded

Risks You Can’t Afford…

Imagine piling your family into your car in the middle of a cold, dark, rainy night then speeding down a twisting mountain road, never turning on your headlights, or buckling their seatbelts.

You'd NEVER consider doing that, not even for a second; it'd be irresponsible and just plain dumb.

So why would you take the equivalent risk with your financial well being?

It's true that real estate 'can' make you very wealthy.

It can also bankrupt you in a heartbeat, just ask any of the millions of people who invested blindfolded to their local market and are now in foreclosure, bankruptcy or worse.

Turn on Your Headlights

Contrary to popular belief, real estate wealth (the kind you pass down to your children and grandchildren), comes from the 'market' not from your efforts, skill or technique.

Mostly, you're just along for the ride. (I'll prove that to you in the FREE Real Estate Investing WITH the Market webinar.

Until now, everyone focused on investing Strategies, Tactics and Execution but ignored the main driver of success (or failure). They've all ended up Bankrupt, in Foreclosure or just Broke and Underwater.

As they say…

It's the Market, Stupid!

It makes no difference what types of properties you pursue; the same rules apply to both Commercial and Residential Real Estate.

No real estate investing style is immune from the market.

Every local market moves in cycles. Those cycles are where, when and why you make or lose money.

Investing blindfolded to your local market cycle is like trying to build your dream home on top of quicksand. Even if you have the best blueprints (strategy), the best materials (tactics) and the best builder (execution), your goal will never be realized because no matter how hard you work, the foundation (your 'market') was all wrong.

The good news is that real estate cycles are easy to master if you know how!

If you were in the market when it was green, you made a killing.

If you were in the market when it was red, you got killed.

A rising tide lifts all boats. A falling tide spares no one. Success is ALL about being in the right place at the right time (on purpose).

A monkey with a deed in the right market at the right time will create more wealth than a team of brilliant investors in the wrong market at the wrong time.

Every local market
has its own, unique cycles.

Knowing the National real estate cycles won’t help much. You must know the local cycles
because when one local market is rising, another may be crashing or flat-lining.

The tale of three cities…

At any point in time, investing in any of these cities would have yielded vastly different results regardless of your particular investing strategies or tactics.

Choosing the right market or adapting the right tactics for your local cycle is what determines your ultimate success or failure.

Thanks to a system first invented by ancient Japanese rice merchants over 500 years ago, coupled with recent technological advancements

by Wall Street and Silicon Valley,investing in the right place at the right time is now as easy as reading a red, yellow or green traffic signal. (view webinar)

Real Estate Cycles

You've always heard real estate moves in cycles… but what does that mean?

email:

We hate spam with a passion, we'll never rent,

sell, or share your information with anyone.

More importantly, how can YOU profit from it?

As a general rule, prices for most 'things' are stable (not cyclical) because changes in Demand are quickly offset by adjusting Supply. If you're a widget manufacturer and more people want widgets, you (and your competitors) simply produce more.

If Demand falls, you cut back on production (Supply).

Prices don't cycle up or down because Supply is in equilibrium with Demand.

The opposite is true with Real Estate.

Real estate supply is fixed.

It can't be moved to areas of greater Demand.

Residential and Commercial Buildings (Supply) have a decades-long shelf life.

Adding significant new Supply takes a long time and a lot of money.

Real estate is illiquid with high transaction costs.

In short, you can't increase or decrease the 'supply' of homes or buildings in response to changes in demand.

When Demand falls, prices go down because that's the only variable left in the Supply-Demand-Price equation.

When Demand increases, prices go up.

A slow moving chain reaction gets started: Builders s-l-o-w-l-y react to changes in Demand by increasing (or decreasing) production. It takes years for the effects to have an impact on Supply… and a new real estate cycle is born! (Watch the webinar for real life examples.)

Small changes in demand
have a big effect on Price.

It takes many years to reach a balance.

However, because builders have long lead times they're (always) late to cut production at market tops and late to ramp up production at bottoms. About the time when excess inventory has been absorbed (in any particular local market), builders have cut back so much they can't react to the inevitable increase in Demand.

The cycle reverses.

In both the Commercial and Residential markets, new construction is at record low levels while population and households are still growing. The stage is set once again for an explosive new up-cycle.

These cycles continue over and over in perpetuity.

We're about to enter our fourth real estate cycle in the last thirty-five years. This USA chart shows the past three cycles very clearly. Note how cycles build for many years and then sharply reverse direction.

Real estate demand
can change very quickly.

Demand for real estate over the short and intermediate term is driven primarily by Market Psychology, not by interest rates, employment, population, income or any of the other 'fundamental' factors. (Watch the webinar for complete discussion)

It doesn't take much to trigger a reversal in Market Psychology. When it happens, there's a mad rush for the exit doors. Because real estate is so illiquid, most investors simply can't get out in time and the problem snowballs.

Excess 'For Sale' inventories pile-up.

Prices crash.

Market Psychology turns from greed to fear and builds on itself.

Buyers disappear.

Underwater property owners are now trapped and forced to 'ride it out.'

…the Cycle intensifies from BOTH
the Demand and the Supply side.

For these and other reasons, real estate is, and will always be, very cyclical. Fortunately, if you have the right tools, these cycles are easy to see and profit from.

The chart above covers the overall average for the entire USA. Of course, you can only invest in local real estate markets, not in an average of all markets.

That's where it gets interesting, and profitable.

Local real estate cycles don't look
anything at all like the USA average.

While some local markets may be crashing, others may be emerging, or flat-lining; local cycles are much more volatile and extreme.

About half the markets in the U.S. consistently display 'High Momentum' on the appreciation and decline phases. These are the markets where Generational Wealth is made.

The remaining half of all U.S. markets are either in long term secular downtrends or in long term equilibrium. These markets are not ideal for fast wealth creation and preservation. Transactional Income strategies can be used to 'scalp' profits. (Continued in the Webinar)

Real Estate Investing
Strategies vs. the Market

Remember that amusement park ride, the little helicopter where you could push a bar back and forth to go up or down? It would spin around a circle, and if the operator threw a switch, you could 'control' the copter in a very small way.

As a child, it felt like you were really flying, all on your own.

But you know the truth…

If, when and by how much you actually moved was completely beyond your control. If the operator allowed it, you could then control only a minuscule part of the ride.

That's what real estate investing Strategies and Tactics are like… that little bar inside the copter that makes you think you're in control.

In reality, the Market is in control. If, when and by how much you succeed (or fail) is determined by the Market, not strategies or tactics.

That's not to say Strategies & Tactics are a waste of time. They're just subordinate to the Market. Any successful investment plan begins with knowing your local Market Cycle, then applying the best techniques for that Market.

Except in the worst conditions, there's usually a strategy perfect for your market.

You can't build Generational Wealth in 'Transactional' markets, but knowing the right techniques at the right time for your local market is where it all begins.

The Market dictates what strategies to use.

No other way around it.

Investing BLIND to the market is a lose-lose situation. You're exposing yourself to excessive downside risk AND missing true Generational Wealth creation opportunities.

Nothing goes right when you're fighting against the Market. It's like pushing boulders uphill, day after day.

Everything you touch seems to turn to gold when you're in synch with the Market. Just look at all the real estate millionaires who struck it rich simply because they were in hot markets, by chance.

Real estate is a great vehicle for wealth creation. Having a plan, skills, and tactics are helpful; they allow you to exponentially multiply your returns when the market is in your favor, and avoid game-ending disasters when it's not.

Everything begins with the market.

For example…

Tax Deed & Tax Lien investing is most successful following a prolonged market decline, after it has bottomed and started to appreciate. Investing in these instruments while the local market is still in a free fall is NOT the optimal time, nor is when the market has been in a sustained upturn for many years.

Investing in undeveloped (raw) Land is a great strategy after the local market has been in a sustained uptrend. Land values can appreciate many multiple times faster than improved property, but Land is the quickest to decline when a market tops, and the last to appreciate after the market bottoms.

Short Sales work best at the end of the decline phase, when banks are eager to unload their problems and large discounts can still be obtained. Waiting for the bottom better insures you're not buying more problems for yourself and are positioned to ride the uptrend.

Wholesaling & Flipping. In theory, this is a low risk strategy because you don't take title. Your losses are limited to your time and out of pocket expenses. In reality, this strategy becomes increasingly more difficult in falling markets because in weak markets, buyers disappear along with declining vales.

Local Real Estate Market analysis…

Technical vs. Fundamental?

email:

We hate spam with a passion, we'll never rent,

sell, or share your information with anyone.

Ever since there've been 'markets' and 'cycles' investors have been trying to predict what's going to happen next. You can reap huge rewards if you get that one piece of information correct.

Trillions of dollars and billions of man-hours have been spent over the last 100 years trying to figure out how to best predict market cycles. Two methods have evolved:

1)Technical Analysis (‘TA’)

2)Fundamental Analysis (‘FA’)

These two methods apply to ALL types of markets and cycles: Stocks, Bonds, Commodities and, of course, Real Estate.

Fundamental Analysis was used almost exclusively until the 1980’s because it was the only method available (unless you were a big, elite Wall Street investment bank)

FA attempts to predict future prices by collecting and analyzing endless groups of data that supposedly relate to the market you’re investing in.

For real estate investors, Fundamental indicators might include:

Mortgage Interest Rates
Building Permits
Existing Home Sales
Foreclosures
Job Growth
Vacancy Rates
Personal Income
% of Investor Owned Houses
Population Growth
Unemployment Rate
In/Out Migration
Available Land for Building
Permitting Process
Taxes

Pending Home Sales Index
Shadow Inventory
Mortgage Delinquencies
Alt A Mortgage Resets
Baby Boomer Migration
REO Saturation
New Chain Retail Stores
% Underwater Mortgages
Household Formations
Gas prices
Proximity to Hospitals
New Home Sales
Community Aesthetics
Climate

There are hundreds of other Fundamental factors people have tried to use over the years to predict market cycles.

Each of these may appear to be grounded in good common sense – who wouldn’t believe that, in general, a warm or moderate climate would lead to higher home price appreciation than a crummy climate, or that lower mortgage rates would lead to higher home prices?

The facts just don’t support it.

For example, the one Fundamental factor nearly everyone agreed with was that lower mortgage interest rates led to higher real estate prices… but we’ve had near-record low mortgage rates for years, while home prices fell off a cliff. Clearly that’s not a good predictor!

Fundamental Analysis will never give you
actionable, consistent decision triggers.

The bottom line is this:

Fundamental Analysis doesn't, won't and can never work for predicting local real estate market cycles in a timely or useful way. FA will never tell you when and where you should buy, sell or hold.

Fundamentals are horribly inaccurate when it comes to predicting LOCAL real estate market cycles because each market is different. There’s no consistent formula between one market and the next.

Even if there were some magic combination of indicators (there isn’t!), they change from one time period to the next, even in the SAME local market. It’s not transferable between different markets or time periods.

Most important:

Local real estate cycles are
driven by Market Psychology.

...but FA ignores Market Psychology.

Technical Analysis came of age in the last thirty years with the widespread use of personal computers. TA is now the dominate technique used by savvy investors worldwide for more than $3 TRILLION in daily financial market trades.

For local real estate markets, TA is the only method on the planet that actually tracks Market Psychology and buyer behavior.

Technical Analysis is a powerful, visual system based on charts, not endless data tables. TA incorporates every element affecting price, for every local real estate market, and it ignores all the irrelevant, time consuming and useless data that is not impacting real estate prices in that market.

TA does NOT require endless data collection because it’s already done for you, for every market and every time period.

If you can read a red, yellow and green traffic light, you can master your markets in minutes.

By following a time-tested, proven technology you can go from "guessing and stressing" to "investing and resting" with TOTAL CONFIDENCE and GRATITUDE.

Real Estate investing...

Wealth vs. Income

email:

We hate spam with a passion, we'll never rent,

sell, or share your information with anyone.

There are many ways to make money in real estate. Unlike the stock market or most other asset classes, real estate is what's called an 'imperfect' market; each property is unique, immoveable and illiquid; that creates enormous opportunity for anyone 'in the know.'

Real Estate is also highly leverageable. You can control a very valuable asset with little (or no) cash investment. Small amounts of appreciation (or decline) in the property's value have an exponential effect on your profit or equity.

Broadly, real estate can be wildly profitable for two reasons:

1) Transactional Income (Forced Appreciation)

2) Generational Wealth-building (Automatic Appreciation)

Transactional Income focuses on strategies and tactics like short sales, probate investing, foreclosures, tax liens & tax deeds, wholesaling, lease options, flipping, and at certain times of the cycle, pre-construction, subject to's, rehabs and many other niche strategies.

Transactional Income techniques help you "Force" the appreciation by creating value somewhere in process. You 'buy low' and 'sell higher' forcing the appreciation.

Generally, forced appreciation requires you to find motivated or less knowledgeable sellers, add value through things like rehabs, be better marketers, build an efficient acquisitions funnel or otherwise work hard and have an inside track... you FORCE THE APPRECIATION through your skills, knowledge and effort.

When you hear stories like "Most millionaires made their money through real estate" they didn't get there by generating lots of Transactional Income, they got there through leverage and "Automatic Appreciation."

You don't need to decide between one or the other:

Automatic Appreciation can be combined
with Forced Appreciation strategies.

Automatic Appreciation investing is when your Profits come from the value of your property going up naturally or 'Automatically' - just because of When and Where you acquired it - just because you own (or control) it. You don't have to do anything fancy or hard other than getting the "Where & When" correct. Click here to see how

Automatic Appreciation works for EVERYONE!

It's lower risk because hot markets are very 'forgiving' - you can make more than your share of mistakes and still come out looking like a genius!

There is Massive Upside potential and Unlimited acquisition candidates.

You don't have to locate motivated sellers if you don't want to. You could go into a market and buy properties all day long for full price and still create profit windfalls.

You don't need to do short sales, pre-foreclosures, wrap's or anything else unless you want to!

If you buy a house in an appreciating market , using ANY method, you can profit!

Automatic Appreciation can be combined with any 'Forced' appreciation Strategy to multiply your returns!

The Key is your knowing local real estate cycle.

Whatever your preferred strategy is, would it help if you knew the market was in a hot, emerging part of the cycle? ...or if it was flat-lining, or about to crash?

Nothing is more important to your
real estate investing success (or failure).

Whether you invest in Commercial or Residential real estate or pursue Transactional Income or Generational Wealth building, if you don't know where you're market is in its cycle, how can you possibly pick the best strategy for maximizing profit and minimizing risk?
