Pro or green, before seeking real sustenance, a.k.a., those fantastic end results reaped from real estate (RE) property, first think and feel things out. This new kind of romancing relationship reshapes your future and your whole life, in levels you can't imagine. Successful investing in RE is just like serious dating for marriage, no matter what kinds of properties interest you. It's not at all about how the house is going to make you look, but is about how it's going to make you feel. The secret is, for as long as you're together, your property becomes your secret partner. Think about it. The more you work with and not against the character traits of your property, (such as mortgage calculation, pre-existing conditions, inspections, and the positive qualities in a specific property, or your willingness for emotional and financial risk), the greater wealth you'll build.

Surprisingly enough, the first step is visualization. The last step is visualization. This brain play achieves smooth bottom line day to day operations, while creating the perfect nuptials. Imagine it already being yours before you lay out on a particular property that looks good. If you can't feel it or see it, keep searching. Go inside before you go outside - as the property may be all dolled up, yet there is a whammy waiting for you.

Next, as in any good contract, start a real estate journal, for assessing financial requirements and goals. Use it as a calendar, place for notes, feelings, hunches, bank meetings, house meetings, you get the idea. This keeps you on target for your preparations, records success anniversaries, and harbors your real-estate business all in one place. Are you looking for steady income, ala carte quick sell on the side, or do you want to hang on until something better comes along? How much financial and time commitment are you prepared to make? Have you secured your success by knowing the best real estate secrets? What are your actions and reactions when it comes to emergencies? What about pre- and after purchase financials and maintenance?

After mapping out a plan for every possible situation and success, make a date. Put your goals, such as when you will purchase, into a time frame. Strengthen your credit. Get rid of all debt; pay off all cards, personal and business: and get some cash on hand. Next, where do you want to buy property, the States or overseas? Limit your initial search. We'll get to you buying the whole world, later. Tip: Starters buy close at home, first, to be able to give tender loving in-person care, while gaining the wealth of property relationship skill. Great communication is 99% of any great marriage - if you don't know it, learn, research, or ask. Also, build relationships with mentors or business support systems.

The engagement is the physical search. Look on-line and in newspapers, local real estate papers, foreclosure websites, the town paper magazines, Craig's List or Kijiji. Call all of the real estate companies and ask them for their open houses. You aren't going to buy from them, most likely, because the overhead is built in, but updated information keeps you ahead of the game. Ask questions like, “How much would it be to fix this, or what would the city say if I tore that off? I could use a good handyman, who do you use? What's the market like these days?” Put the relevant notes in your real estate journal. Just don't tell the competition what you do, initially. Drive around the neighborhoods where you want to purchase. You can see the end results of other people who invested/purchased while scoping out the area before you buy.

You're ready. You know prices, how to get free money, the design you are looking for, the neighborhood you want, whether you want a house or apartment building, and what the market is in your rental city. You are in love, and have removed all concern as to there being competition. Last, but most important, you're prepared for physical commitment and mental success. Get to know your partner!

I have been working on the Real Estate Investor Cookbook last week until Friday when I was overwhelmed with the response to my inquiry about helping our real estate investor wholesalers.

Now that I am caught up with answering the majority of those replies, I just added the standard Disclaimer to the Real Estate Investor Cookbook.

I will be continuing to add additional resources to that over the next couple weeks as well.

Until my next post,
