Strategy # 3 For profiting in RE 2010
April 6, 2010 | No Comments | Blog
As I keep giving some strategies to the real estate investing business I want to refresh the ones that were already went over. Strategy # 1 was to hold properties on a land contract. To hold and sit while you can make a good return on your money through the interest earned on the land contract. Strategy # 2 was to wholesale or quick flip properties to other investors. This is a great strategy that can be used if you need to put money in your pocket you can make this process happen pretty quickly if you get the right deal. You may even be able to sell it to me? Let’s move on to strategy number three which might be the most rewarding.
Renovating and flipping (Rehabbing) is the strategy and I really like it because you get to see the properties get fixed up and put a family into the home that is satisfied with your product. Also you are making a difference in the community by fixing up a property that was an eye sore and vacant in the community. I got into the business to utilize this strategy. It’s my favorite because I like to make a difference in every area of life and this is just one more avenue to do it. Wholesaling is fun and you do also get the properties in the hands of somebody else that will rehab it but I love to see the properties become what they are intended to be. At the same time opposed to a land contract you can do more of them. There are bigger profit margins there as well than wholesaling of course you are taking a bigger risk as well. There are so many factors that you need to consider while rehabbing that I am not going to get into in this article but you really need to know what to expect when doing it. The most important thing is the deal you rehab, that the numbers work in the market you are working in.
I work in the Macomb Real Estate market and really enjoy exercising this strategy. It gives you more volume to do. At the same time you need to have a lot of things in order one being a good system including contractors or the time to do the work. If you are an investor or looking to begin investing I hope that you are gather an idea of what you want to do out of some of the strategies that I have been writing about. Never lose faith and always continue striving forward to achieve the goal that is set before you.
