Private Money Is A Great Option For Real Estate Investors

You may have noticed that using subject to options is one way of getting alternative financing on your real estate investing properties.

Using this strategy, you can buy homes without limit because you are not forced to come out of pocket to finance them all.

Another strategy that real estate investors use in their real estate investing, is to build up a warchest of private money lenders who they can go to whenever they need capital to buy a great deal.

We act as private money lenders to people whom we work with, and we also use private money lenders to help fund our deals when something wonderful comes along that we want to invest in.

Real Estate Investors Need An Exit Strategy When Buying Investment Properties

Real Estate Investors Need An Exit Strategy When Buying Investment Properties

Want to know how to succeed at real estate investing?

What matters most is that you have an exit strategy in mind when you purchase your investment real estate property.

The biggest losers in real estate investing are people who purchase properties without knowing what they are going to do on the back end to make money from those properties.

What is an exit strategy for a real estate deal?

Great question! All exit strategy means is that you know what you are going to do with the property to make money on it AT THE TIME YOU BUY IT.

That timing is critical. You need to know how you are going to turn your real estate investment from investment to cash, from property to payday, at the time you buy it.

This makes sense too, doesn’t it? Rather than buying something you like or think may be a good investment, create a plan for how you are going to get rid of the investment to cash out, get paid and make your profit, and do that before you ever invest a dime in the property!

Private Money Lenders Win With You When They Invest In You

Private Money Lenders Win With You When They Invest In You

Let’s look at an example of real estate investing with private money, and how everyone wins.

Let’s say you bought a house and fixed it up for a total of $100,000, and you sold it for $150,000, meaning you made a $50,000 profit, and you did it in 4 months.

If you also paid interest at 12% per year (1% per month) on the $100,000 you borrowed, you would pay $4,000 in interest for that 4 month period.

Now, remember, you made $50,000 on the deal. So, subtract the $4,000 in interest cost from your gross profit and youre left with a net profit of $46,000 from your real estate investing. Pretty cool deal isnt it!

Your private money investor is happy because they got 12% on their money, about six times the prevailing bank rates, and their money was secured by the property you bought with the money.

Not only that, but you made $46,000 too! Everyone wins.

Who Should Consider This

on March 23rd, 2009 by Rocket

Who Should Consider This

Transfer the balance from the building business credit card with the higher interest rate to the one with the lower rate so that you are not paying as much monthly.

With that said, if you have business line of credit cards with relatively low interest rates then to consolidate your credit card debt is not something necessary. Another thing you must keep in mind is that you may be charged for transferring your balance from card to another, so if the transfer fee is too much you may want to think twice.

Application Enticements?

on January 20th, 2009 by Rocket

Application Enticements?

Many stores or financial institutions offer enticements such as discounts or prizes when someone fills out an application. If your son or daughter fills out a business line of credit card application “Just because I got 10% off my purchases that day,” the company must be contacted in writing and by phone if they do not plan to use the building business credit card in the future. Simply ‘not using’ it will not stop monthly charges from accruing (including late payments for monthly charges). This is very important and can cause hassles later on if they just ignore the notices of payments due.

Watch for Hidden Fees

on January 12th, 2009 by Rocket

Watch for Hidden Fees

Many solicitations, especially through the mail, promise universal acceptance, pre-approval and high business line of credit limits. Always read the fine print for fees and hidden charges. Deals that sound too good usually are. If the responsible and savvy consumer can successfully compare building business credit cards and their interest rates and charges, it is possible to move balances to more favorable cards by combining balances and juggling finances. These options are best used for those with higher credit lines, and with the advice of a tax accountant or bookkeeper.

Honesty

on December 28th, 2008 by Rocket

Honesty

The first thing to remember is to be a 100% honest. In this case, fill out the building business credit card application with true information regarding your financial condition, your marital status and even something as simple as your true address. Banks check all of this information and will be suspicious if they find that something is not right

The second tip is to not forget anything. For example, if you are buying or leasing a car, mention it in the application. If you are making your monthly payments in a timely manner, then this is something to your advantage as it shows the bank that you are someone who can be trusted. The same thing applies if you have a mortgage for your home.

Check and double-check all the spellings and numbers you enter in your business line of credit card application. Although it may not be considered as fraudulent if you make a mistake, it can significantly delay the processing time if, for instance, your date of birth and social security number are not correct.

Books for school may be an emergency situation in some cases, but magazine subscriptions, adult chat lines, 1-900 horoscope phone numbers, and HBO on Demand are not.
