A 14 Year Argument Leads To The Creation Of A
Brand New Real Estate Investment Tool

It’s a simple point I’ve been making for years:

Targeting homes in low-cost markets doesn’t make you wealthy… the health of the market that you target is what makes you wealthy.

Lower-cost homes are low-cost for a reason…
…simple supply-and-demand.

If there’s less demand for properties in a particular market, the supply will be high and drive the costs down.

Any knucklehead with a pen and good intentions can tie up a piece of real estate… especially if it’s cheap!

I’d often go round-and-round with other experts who’d brag about some crazy deals they were able to scoop up, but the truth remained… those DEALS weren’t what made them wealthy.

Being in the right market at the right time
is what made them rich.

After 14 years we hadn’t come to a real agreement so… because I’m a numbers guy (and pretty competitive)- I decided to show them the evidence.

I gave my team the task of collecting and mining millions of data points from across the country and found out I was right… with one simple exception.

We took the data, plugged it into a new tool we created called the House Value Finder, and then compared it to our Hot Market Score.

If you’re not familiar with the Hot Market Score (our proprietary way to score the health of markets) and how it’s been making investors quite wealthy, click here and I’ll explain.

Intuitively you might think markets with favorable Hot Market Scores would be in the lowest-cost markets and neighborhoods, but the opposite is true.

Think about it: The reason prices are so low is because those markets have been weak for a long time.

BUT…

There are rare exceptions to that rule

Take a look at the diagram below. Simply put, the numbers in red cells are unfavorable, and the ones in green cells are favorable, for whatever category they’re in.

 

You’re looking at the 17 lowest-cost home value counties in the country. Out of 17 low-cost counties, 13 of them have abysmal Hot Market Scores represented in RED.

But there were 4 remaining markets that still had really GOOD Hot Market Scores.

THOSE Markets Are Your Gold Mines!

Look at the markets in position 1, 6, 13, and 14 below:

You can see that 4 of the 17 markets have low home values while at the same time are in HOT markets!

This means homes with low values in hot markets not only exist… but we can now find them, with ease!

With the House Value Finder tool, you can now find those rarest of opportunities:

Low-cost homes in the hottest markets

This tool is (currently) included at no additional cost with every  PRO account.

What’s more… with the House Value Finder tool you’ll be able to price your deals properly. Let me explain.

Let’s say you look for a particular discount below market when you invest in a property. If you use a one-size-fits-all for pricing your offers you will OVERPAY in crummy markets and LOSE THE DEAL in hotter markets.

You MUST price-in MARKET RISK

Take for example Lowndes County, Alabama. It has the second-lowest home values in the entire country.

Now look at the Hot Market score: it’s a 7 out of 100! Ouch!

This means that 93% of all US markets are BETTER than Lowndes County at the time this article is written.

Because of the House Value Finder tool, you’d realize you need a bigger discount from fair value to offset the greater risk of operating in such a crummy market.

Likewise, if you try to apply the same big discount in hotter markets, you’ll be outbid by more knowledgeable investors… like those who have HousingAlerts, for example 🙂

I’m sure by now you see why this tool is insanely valuable to anyone who invests in property- no matter if you’re a flipper, wholesaler, or long-term investor.

It’s the market that creates wealth! Not the ‘deal’.

I’ll show you exactly how to create wealth in Real Estate, instead of always hunting for the next shot-to-the arm deal that could leave you sitting on the wrong side of the closing table.

P.S. My Hot-Shot Real Estate friends finally agree with me 🙂

One of them even said:

“There’s no reason why any investor with
half-a-brain wouldn’t kill for this information.”

To your success!
