Class Description

Description

Do you want to earn more income? Are you looking to buy or are interested in investment property? Get in before it's too late! Learn to invest wisely for your specific plan. We will cover buying foreclosures, short sales, multi-units and general financing options for all types of investing from beginners to small investors.

How to flip and how to invest long term both are covered in this class.

Foreclosures happen everywhere, just ask any lender. The rise in foreclosures can be your opportunity. Consider the following:

  • Each year properties nationwide go into foreclosure.
  • Hundreds of millions of dollars in foreclosed properties are listed on the books of banks, savings & loans & finance companies alone.
  • Sellers need to sell their foreclosed properties but banks aren't in the business of owning them.
  • In the aftermath of the subprime mortgage crisis, buyers for foreclosed properties are still needed.
  • Class will also cover short sales which are becoming more popular because of the huge discounts they offer.

You can learn to profit from foreclosures. This class covers: 

  • Dealing with & buying foreclosed properties directly from the owners.
  • How to buy at a sheriff's sale.
  • Even after a sheriff's sale, how to approach & buy from the lender.
  • How to pay no commissions.
  • Timing your purchase for maximum appreciation. 

...and all the "nuts and bolts" information you need to get started.
