With the never-ending changes in our Real Estate Markets real estate professionals are starting to
pay attention to the sound of new commission streams of income. Some realtors have either shied
away or ran-away from such terms as "Cap Rate," & "Cash-on-Cash Returns." Terms that
only the 'smart' and 'numbers-oriented people use to determine if a Real Estate purchase is a
"Good Deal", or not. A majority of the realtor brethren attended real estate school because they
are excited and passionate about the promise of selling real estate and making a fantastic living.
That being said "Times are a Changing." Even if you live in a Hot Market where residential real
estate sells in 2-3 days there is an old approach to real estate that is growing faster by the
day.....Residential Real Estate Investors.
This deft group of real estate investors is taking real estate and the real estate investment world
into a new era! No longer accepting the crazy volatility of the Dow Jones and NASDAQ families.
Unwilling to accept the investment practices of their fore-fathers these Investors throw caution to
the wind for returns above the traditional 5-6% in their Roth or IRA accounts. These Investors are
bold and oftentimes aggressive. Today's Real Estate Investors are all about the fast fix-n-flip, high
appreciation, and rock solid monthly cash-flows. Cutting their teeth on investment in their own
home-towns is only the beginning as the Serious Investors turn to points outside their own back-
yards to other regions that demonstrate greater promise and higher returns. You may say well
how does this older adult view their investment opportunities? For starters the age of these stealth
hunters ranges from 28 to 68. From "Rich Dad-Poor Dad" book series to Trumps magical
presence on "The Apprentice," the young real estate entrepreneurs are making their dreams
happen to the tune of 3-5 acquisitions a year! Got your attention now? The typical Investor has
good to great credit scores. Excellent cash reserves or hidden resources of partners with cash,
and a willingness to make the deal happen at nearly any cost. The best kept secret of all is that
these investing beasts travel in packs. Where you see one another is very close behind. In other
words they know the people that you need to know to grow your investor database even larger. If
the real estate professional does a good job the happy clients are likely to refer many of their
fellow-investors. Not just investor clients but their regular every-day real estate business. Face it,
if you can demonstrate to your clients how adept you are with their largest personal purchase of
real estate, then wouldn't you suppose they will be over their "trusted real estate advisors" opinion
on buying a basic home, condo or beach house?
So what if you haven't been focused in the real estate investment sector. And you are thinking
this all sounds pretty good, let's give it a try. First question to ask yourself is who have your clients
been working with or exploring their options of real estate investing with over the past 3-4 months.
Statistically 6 out of 10 clients have considered investing in real estate or have already begun
doing so before their realtor even has a chance to blink an eye. Got your attention now? How
about the fact that in less than one year I increased my annual commissions by 30% by just
positioning myself within my primary data-base of clients. All I did was let them know that I was
