When the Next Real Estate Crash Happens- Opportunities in the making!

When the real estate market has indigestion it is actually creating opportunities!

The media would have us all believe that there is a single real estate market.This is simply not true! So when you start hearing news about the Next Real Estate Crash and to avoid it like the plague, just remember that market indigestion creates opportunities for those who are paying attention!

 

Real Estate is local and very unique. Every state, region, city, suburb, and even neighborhood is a separate market all to itself. This means that wherever you are there is a good chance there is a deal on real estate. If there’s not one to be found in your own backyard then there will be in someone else’s backyard.

This in not the case with stocks however!

Stocks  are a national or global exchange of paper representing massive blocks of companies and industries. If one single industry is negatively affected, then that whole block of paper stock is affected as well. This leads to decreasing, stalling, or worse yet, losing your principal.

Some may counter with, “That’s why I diversify my stocks”. I’m not saying someone can’t profit from investing in the stock market. I do however love what billionaire Warren Buffet has to say about “diversification”.

“Diversification is protection against ignorance. It makes little sense if you know what you are doing.”

– Warren Buffett

Why would you want to spread your money thin over a very volatile system and into sectors or companies you know nothing about? Why not put it into something you can control, mitigate the risks of, and actually profit from during any type of market?

One last thing on this topic that I think is absolutely essential for everyone who invests.

You can, and its highly recommended that you deal with “insider” information from  experts in the field and industry who know the asset class and market in which that asset is located!

There are individuals who consider themselves “mavericks” in the real estate investing arena. They claim they are a self-made millionaire or guru. I simply do not buy this. I have read literally hundreds of books, spent tens of thousands of dollars in seminars and classes and spent tons of time learning it all.

Through all this study and exhausting effort I began noticing something very interesting in what I was immersed in.

Every successful real estate investor has a team to support them!

When I learned this it literally changed my whole direction. My efforts and goals then became focused on finding and building my own personal team of experts to help me successfully transact real estate.

I spent literally years searching. I looked at every self proclaimed “turn-key” operation I could find. All I found was people pushing real estate as a product to other investors. I’m not saying what they offer is of no value because it certainly is  to the right people.

I found that it wasn’t for me.

What was I looking for specifically?

Being a rookie or novice I needed some serious help.

My Needs and Wants Criteria:

1. A personal Coach
2. That “coach” needed to be successfully investing in real estate.
3. I needed someone who will assess my personal situation.
4. Create a plan of action for the short term and long term.
5. Have relationships in the best markets in the country.
6. Have a team of professionals that specialize in EVERY aspect of a real estate transactions.
7. Have a nationwide network of brokers, agents, property management companies etc.

The list could go on and on.

Early on it never occurred to me that I needed all this to be successful so you can imagine my sheer delight when I finally found, after years of looking,what I was looking for!

Eureka!!

I found, interviewed, and finally hired the expert insiders in the real estate field that I had been looking for and they have made a world of difference!

Through leveraging their knowledge and system I have been able to put my money to work for me instead of me working extra jobs and overtime just to make ends meet.

My message to the world is: “You don’t have to be an expert in every aspect of investing in order to perform like one!”

This kind of advantage is outlawed for you and me when playing with stocks, so only the “big boys” on Wall Street and in the government get the inside scoop but in the real estate game it’s essential.
