8 Life Lessons
Friday, February 3rd, 2012 | Real Estate Investing | No Comments
Yesterday, on my “Life Lessons” webinar, I took a totally different angle. I didn’t teach a “SYSTEM” for making money. Instead I focused on the “Life Lessons” I’ve learned while forced to be away from my businesses. These are the concepts that make a business worth working at and fighting for. When you aren’t allowed to work you realize that working is a privilege, not a nuisance. I love what I do and I do it well. Being forced to be away from work and my family was very difficult.
Along the way I’ve learned 8 Life Lessons, plus 5 “underground” lessons.
Watch the webinar below to get the full insider’s view.
Here are the life lessons I learned along the way:
1) Be Daring
2) Expect the Best Outcome
3) It Only Take One
4) Time To Grind
5) Go Overboard
6) T.V. is the biggest waste of time in human history
7) Acidic Vs. Alkaline Body
8) Prepare Like Hell
9) Only Systemize Perfect Systems
10) Don’t Paint Yourself In A Corner
11) Track and Measure Everything
12) Do What You Love
13) Outsource and Delegate for Cheap
Advice for 2012:
1) Spend as much time raising money as you do finding deals
2) Focus on the distressed property market
-
-
-
- REOs
- Short Sales
- Lease Options
- …and buyer’s that want them
-
-
3) Brokerage is leading the way
-
-
-
- Generate leads online (we generated 300+ leads while I was in the hospital)
- Recruit Agents
- Give the Agent great sales training
- Agents find the best Investment deals
- Cherry pick the investment deals (short sales, REOs and lease options)
-

Over the past few months, as I discovered I had cancer and have gone through the healing process, I’ve felt very disconnected from you. To be honest I’ve had my mind “in other places” if you know what I mean.
Now that I’m almost healing up I want to reconnect with you and see how I can help you in 2012.
So I planned a live webinar for this Thursday so we can reconnect.
On the Strategy Session webinar I will:
1) Tell you a little more about my fight with pancreatic cancer and the 8 life lessons I learned along the way that have radically changed my view of life and business.
2) Show you how my 5 businesses were able to run without me while I was out with almost no “hiccups”.
3) I’ll will personally take lots of LIVE Questions from you about whatever you want to talk about.
4) Tell you where I’m focusing my energy as a real estate investor in 2012.
5) Show you how Internet Marketing is changing the way I run my real estate companies.
6) And some other important and cool stuff….
As I plan for the ½ half of my life and how I can serve you along the way, I’d like to know a little more about YOU, YOUR GOALS, and plan a course of action to help you get there.
Please fill out this survey profile below so I can better understand what you are excited about and where you want to go.

P.S. [WARNING] The webinar may not have the energy that my webinars usually have. I’ll admit, I’m still moving a little slower than normal and don’t have the energy I used to have since my surgery. BUT I will still rock the house and give you all I have.
See you Thursday!
Even You Won’t Be Able To Qualify for a Mortgage Any Time Soon
Monday, January 23rd, 2012 | Bank owned, Commercial Real Estate Investing, Foreclosures, Real Estate Investing, Short Sales, Wholesale properties | No Comments
The other night I was lying in bed reading an article that blew me away…
It’s called “Prime Mortgage Borrowers: Then vs. Now.”
It was comparing the prime borrower in 2007 to the prime borrower RIGHT NOW.
Check out how ridiculously easy it was to qualify for prime only a few years ago…
In 2007 Requirements for a “PRIME MORTGAGE LOAN” to buy a house were:
- Loan Values up to 125% of the property value
- Meaning you could borrow $200,000 on a house only worth $175,000
- Debt to Income ratios of up to 45% of incomee
- Minimum FICO Score of 620
- e1 Past W-2
- 2 months of fallback reserves
- Employment corroborated one month out prior to closing
Fast forward to the requirements to buy a house TODAY:
- Loan Values max out at 80% of house value
- *Which means buyers have to put down at least 20%*
- Debt to Income levels are lower at 33%
- Minimum FICO is 680 to 720
- 2 YEARS of W-2s must be provided
- 12 months of fallback reserves must be available
- Re-verification of employment within 10 days of closing is required
- A foreclosure, short sale or deed-in-lieu must be at least seven years old
So what does this mean for us investors exactly?
Well according to watchdog credit rating agency DBRS…
“Based on the minimum FICO score, maximum loan-to-value (LTV), and the requirement that a foreclosure, short sale or deed-in-lieu be at least seven years old, it is likely that most of the U.S. population will not be able to qualify for a mortgage any time soon,” DBRS says.
“Consequently, DBRS expects the housing recovery to continue to lag for many years to come unless there is a loosening of underwriting criteria by the major lenders,” the DBRS concluded.
This changes the game for investors, big time.
If you’ve been following the free material I’ve been sending you about how to profit from recent housing trends with INSTANT CASH INFUSION, you realize this information from DBRS mightily supports the investing strategy Instant Cash Infusion is built on, and will allow investors like you to thrive for the next 2-5 years…
But only if you know how to sidestep the new bottlenecks of banking. Without available credit, we must invest in strategies that do not require bank loans for ourselves or our buyers.
So I am hosting a webinar to show you EXACTLY how to thrive in today’s market – that will instantly put $500 – $20,000 in your pocket in as little as 16 days.
On the “No Banks Needed” Tell All presentation I’ll be revealing to you…
- 4 simple, fast, safe and easy ways for you to make money that don’t require any banks whatsoever
- How my students and I have been perfected these strategies since 2004
- Why since late 2011 and now into 2012, these investing techniques are even better poised for you and I to prosper from because of the current shifts in the financial markets
- How you can profit from every type of property, right now. Houses with equity, houses with no equity and no default (which are most common) and overleveraged houses in foreclosure (short sales)
- These leads are everywhere and require little to no marketing costs on your part to obtain. As I said earlier they are the most common lead type I get into my business. In fact, in the past, I used to throw these away. Not anymore
- You get paid within 60 days. Often in as little as 16 days. No waiting for 7 months to get a short sale approved and flipped or a house rehabbed and sold
- You pocket between $500 to $20,000 without needing a loan for any of it
- The critical set of forms you must use to execute all these techniques for faster payouts How buyers will fight over these properties you will control because they don’t have to qualify for bank loans. Not to mention the 80 – 100 million hungry buyers who cannot qualify for a bank loan. I’ll show you how to flip them over to the buyer for a very handsome fee
- One technique with three ways to make you money. You can make some cash now (between $500 to $20,000), cash flow each month (between $100 to $1,000) and then cash out down the road (between $7,000 and $40,000) without ever owning the home
Instant Cash Infusion is the quickest, easiest way to make money in real estate with no money, bad credit, and no loans for you or your buyers.
And isn’t that what you’re really looking for?
Listen, I care a lot about you and your future. This is stuff you need to know to be successful. If you let this kind of information go unnoticed, your real estate investing business will never get off the ground or you’ll waste hundreds of hours and thousands of dollars doing the wrong things.
Get on the webinar to learn how to fix your cash flow challenges now, with a quick $500-$20,000 in as little as 16 days.

Make Sure Your Domain Name Is Keyword Rich, Optimized
Thursday, November 10th, 2011 | Real Estate Investing | No Comments
It’s no secret that in today’s market, people are relying on the Internet more and more to buy and sell their homes.
In fact 87% of home buyers look online before they contact a realtor, according to the National Association of Realtors.
But how can you ensure that these buyers and sellers are going to find YOUR web site?
The key lies in choosing keyword rich, optimized domain names. Not only that, but you need to make sure any domain name you choose is targeted to your local area. This will allow you to focus on what people are searching for when buying or selling their house in your area. By including these keywords in your domain, you’re giving yourself a HUGE advantage over your competition because odds are, they’re not doing it. Also odds are the Google, Bing, Yahoo and the other search engines will find and index your site faster because the domain name directly relates the key words your target audience is searching for.
Check out this actual video from my Genius Underground Marketing Machine Team.
One of the Geniuses, Ryan Bush, walks you through exactly how to find and evaluate the right keywords using a free tool from Google. You’ll even get to see what your competition is doing. Once you’re ready, he’ll show you how to lock in that perfect domain name to get your Internet marketing underway.
This video is just a taste of the information found in my Genius Underground Marketing Machine (GUMM) Internet Marketing Domination Program.
