New Article!

All,

Here's a freshly written article packed with hints and tips for finding the source of roof leaks. Roof leaks, as indicated by ceiling stains is just part of the rehab real estate business. Here's how to deal with it:

What to do with this property?

Back to the project at hand...

After returning from some travels, I stopped by this project. My rehab supervisor is coming along now. We got some heavy rains last week, so we found a leak. Better to find this now then later.

I'm struggling with the decision of what to do with this property. It it located very conveniently to a military base, AND it is a long way from my other properties. Those items take together are causing me to lean toward retailing this property. In fact, I'm considering using a Realtor.

What to do?

Talk about rapid development...

In addition to the new hard money lender/broker listings and the Priority Content List I wrote you about this AM, my web staff JUST completed the Wholesale Property Resource listing area as well. This area is for wholesalers to list their information for potential investors.

What wholesaler wouldn't like to have more clients, and demand for his or her properties?! If you would, please forward this post to every wholesaler you know. Call it a Christmas gift :)

Things are moving fast around here...I'm told that the nationwide listings for investor-friendly real estate agents, and non-hard-money mortgage brokers will come online within the next month or so. Rehab Real Estate Central is growing so fast, I'm just trying to keep up!

Anyway, if you've listed as a hard money resource, I appreciate that. Also, if you've applied for the Priority Content List, I'll let you know if you are accepted ASAP.

New Tools!

Without a doubt, the NUMBER ONE question I get from visitors (I love visitor email!) is this:

"Where do I find hard money?"

You see, hard money lenders/brokers generally aren't the ones with the million dollar advertising budgets. So, you have to look for them.

I want to make that easier. I'm launching a hard money resource area. But, like the rest of Rehab Real Estate Central, I want to do this right. I looked around other real estate investment sites. Their hard money listings are little more than contact information. Well, for newbie investors, that's a little intimidating. They need more information than that. The listings on RREC will allow hard money lenders and brokers to put some value to their listing. Yes, they'll tell you a little about themselves and what they do.

With the growth we've been experiencing, these listings will likely be the go-to location for investors in need of hard money.

That's not all!

I'm launching a completely free service to anyone who puts out a newsletter. (Anyone who likes return business from real estate investors should put out a newsletter to keep their name in front of potential clients such as mortgage brokers, appraisers, agents, etc.)

I'm intending to write special articles aimed at real estate investors and GIVE them to those that sign up for the priority content service so they can turn them around to THEIR newsletter lists. Yep, I'm basically writing their newsletter for them.

I know, I know...why am I doing that?

Simple. I want to promote the site, and I'm willing to do this to spread the word about http://www.rehab-real-estate.com.

This is one of those rare, can't lose things. A freebie where everyone wins!

More on the Mini-Course and Project!

The Mini-Course

All I can say is...wow! The reception of the mini-course has been incredible and, well, flattering!

I've gotten some very nice email about the course and it's not even finished being metted out to the first batch of recipients. While the aim of the course is not to motivate per se, it's apparently doing just that. For instance:

Kevin in Chicago wrote: "I am at the door way to investing. I have been reading everything I can find. I have made the decision to do it."

Demetrius, currently a warrior in Iraq said: "I love your websight and thanks for all of the advise that you given everyone so far."

I find this incredibly exciting! Helping others get started gives me a real charge, and keeps me motivated and charging forward.

To that end, I'm launching a new tool this weekend. More on that later.

Okay, an update on the project.

Well, I took the camera, but when I tried to get some shots to post, it was deader than a doornail. Sorry.

After some authorized delays, the project is moving forward nicely. The work is getting there. We found a bit more termite damage, but not much, and an easy fix.

I think I've decided to retail this property. It's a LONG way from my house and the spread will allow me to make some nice profit on it, that I'll roll into other projects. Decisions decisions....
