REAL ESTATE INVESTOR




Smart Real Estate Investing

How It Works

So you want to invest in real estate. Great. Certainly not a bad idea since real estate investing has proven again and again to be one of the best wealth builders.

There are two ways you can do so with our program, and neither will require you to pay tens of thousands of dollars upfront for seminars, etc, like many of the popular real estate programs out there. Save those dollars for investing. You will always learn more doing than sitting in a classroom.

Our first option is a coaching program. Many coaching programs also ask for tens of thousands upfront, with no guarantee you will actually get proper coaching once you hand over your money. With our program, we earn when you earn. One of our coaches will work with you from start to finish, and once a profit is made, that's when we earn by splitting the proceeds with you. We will coach you through as many projects as you like until you are comfortable going on your own. Since our success is linked to yours, you can be assured you will get all the help you need to make your investing dreams a reality.

The second option is one designed for people who want to invest but who have little or no time to do all the associated legwork (scouting for properties, manage rehabs, etc.), that comes with investing. This is a complete "Done-For-You" program. We do the scouting, management of projects, everything from start to finish. Again, we split the profits on the back end.

Along with all this, of course, is that we also have in place all the peripheral services needed for investing: real estate agent services, financing, structure creation (eg. LLCs, Trusts, Self-Directed IRAs, etc.). You can also pursue projects individually, or partner with other investors, when necessary.

You can become a part of our program simply by becoming a member of our group. Cost for membership is a one-time $995 initiation fee, then $99 per year, beginning the second year. Some of the benefits you will also receive as a member is on-going training on a variety of investing and financial topics, usually done via live webinars, as well as discounts on popular support services such as realtor, financing and legal services through our preferred providers.

If you are serious and would like to set up an appointment to learn more and have any further questions answered, you may book a time with us using the calendar below. If you wish just to get updates, you can fill out the form on our Home Page. There are also commonly asked questions under our FAQ section. To Get Started, see the Getting Started section.


F A Q

Having some savings is helpful when investing in real estate. However, because real estate is often a leveraged activity (meaning it can mostly be financed with loans), most times all you need is enough money for down payments or incidental expenses such as inspections, appraisals, etc. We can show you ways to raise capital, so do not let it deter you if you do not have "six-figure savings" to invest.

This really depends on the location of the property. Higher cost areas, such as Coastal States, may take more capital than say a Midwest or Southern State. The goal, however, is to work with you to find deals that will match to your particular financial circumstances.

For the coaching program, the split is usually 50/50 for the first two deals, then 70/30 thereafter, if you still need coaching. Seventy percent of the profits go to you, thirty percent to us.

For the Done-For-You program, the profit split is usually 50/50.

Yes. If you are a part of our coaching program, chances are you will stay in your local area to begin. But you can also go out of State. If you are part of our Done For You program, however, then a viable property could be in any area or State.

For most real estate investing projects, your personal credit is not strongly taken into account. In the case of rehabs, for instance, loans are not granted based on the borrower's credit. They are typically done on the merits of the property. If a property's After Repair Value (ARV) shows that it will increase significantly after repairs, then typically it can be financed.

The same holds true for commercial properties (5+ unit apartments, office buildings, storage facilities, etc.) or new construction. What's primarily reviewed is the overall cash flow or cost-to-build of the property, and less about a buyer's personal credit.

Yes. Typically most investment property deals are done using a LLC, or some other type of Corporate entity. This gives the buyer asset protection, as well as offers significant tax advantages.

We can help you set up a LLC or other corporate entity. This is one of the support services we have for members.

If the bulk of your investing will be done only in your local area, then setting up a LLC in your home State may make more sense. If investing in multiple states (more common in the Done-For-You program), then there are advantages in having your LLC established in States such as Wyoming or Delaware. These states offer better asset protection, low fees, and an easier process.

In many cases, yes. This is done through what is called a Self-Directed IRA. The funds are then rolled into this account so you can personally direct it (thus "self-directed"), to investments you desire to engage in. The funds plus future growth profits then remain Qualified (ie. Tax Deferred or Exempt, which is what defines Qualified Retirement Plans). Again, we can help you set this up too.
