Finding home bargains

Finding a bargain home can a challenging task with home prices continuing to drop and a seemingly endless supply of bank owned property and short sales continung to drive the market down.  In looking for investment homes we try to stay ahead of the market and get out quickly when rehabbing not only to limit our carrying costs but to in effect stay ahead of the market.  It can be a tricky venture and we find it takes alot of time and effort to find those "bargain" properties and beat out other investors or even worse - someone that is buying to live in the property.

The key to looking for real estate is to educate yourself to the point that when you locate a prospective property you know its a deal and can act quickly.  The other point is to not rule anything out and to use all the tools at your disposal such as real estate agents (a good one can make a difference), government web sites that contain all types of information on the property history and current owners (think motivation), zillow for comps, and a slew of others resources that when leveraged can paint the complete picture of a piece of property.

Prestin Ely a friend of mine has made millions in real estate and has recently created a software tool that does all the work of looking and making offers.  Preston offers some unique approaches.. check it out and happy hunting and rehabbing.

========= From Preston ==============
Hey Chris,

Real estate investing as we know it is dead.
Want shocking proof?

Every once in a while, something or someone comes

along and radically changes things in an industry. The

bar gets raised to extraordinary heights never before

seen in history. Think "the 4 minute mile."



Things are turned upside down, and competitors

scramble to innovate and keep up with the new industry

standard. Often times all they can do is copy the person

or product, but often to no avail. Think "Apple Iphone."



Up until now, about 20% of newbie real estate investors

actually make it. 80% fail. The reason is because the

known system for buying and selling houses has been

too difficult. Too overwhelming. The majority of

people simply are not wired to do the 900 things

necessary to run a successful home buying & selling

business. It’s too much.

>>>>Take a Look at the Future<<<

But that is all ancient history. A new era is being

ushered in with ...

Freedom$oft.

Technology has finally been created that not only

manages the "organizational" side of your business

(like all the others focus on), but quite literally finds,

buys, and sells your houses for you. And no, I am not

over-exaggerating (as is the manner of some).



But talk is cheap, and I know you deserve a trophy for

reading this far as it is. You’re busy, and so am I. See

for yourself. A sneak-peak demo has been temporarily

posted online for you to see it in action. If you wait too

long to witness this ... don’t say I didn’t warn you.



Let me know what you think. I will be getting this

the second it becomes available (along with the rest

of the world). The line has already started forming.



Be well,



Mike



PS: This is like nothing you have ever seen before.

This thing literally does everything for you that

previously required a learning curve and mental

effort. We are about to see 80-20 rule totally flipped

around. Watch.
