A key element to being successful in the real estate business is having the ability to fund your deals once you have secured them with a purchase agreement.  If you find tons of deals but have no way to fund and close them you are never going to take advantage of your opportunities.  You would be like a fisherman without a pole.  A golfer without any clubs.

Wholesaling real estate is not a walk in the park.  Due to the constraints of the economy and the bad rap that bogus investors have given the business, it is getting harder and harder for an end buyer to get financed. 

When a wholesaler gets a property under contract, they normally sell the property to an end buyer by assigning the contract or receiving a fee from the end buyer to purchase directly from the seller.  But in some situations, such as a short sale, the wholesaler must purchase the property first in order to fulfill the arrangements made with the foreclosing lender.  This simultaneous closing transaction is structured something like this: Party A (lender/seller) sells to Party B (wholesaler), who in turn sells to Party C (end buyer) Read the rest of this entry »

To begin with, what is cash flow?  Cash flow is the sum of the after-tax profit of a business plus depreciation and other non-cash charges.  This is the money you make minus expenses.  Once expenses are paid and you still have funds left over, this is positive cash flow.  If your rental income doesn’t cover your expenses for the year, this is negative cash flow.  NEVER buy a property Read the rest of this entry »

If you are investing in real estate to build wealth, then you want to maximize your investments.  There are several ways to increase the value of your property so that you can realize more profits when you sell.  The value of a property is determined by what a buyer is willing to pay for it or a tenant is willing to rent it for.
