77 Ways to Fill Vacancies - Real Estate Investing by Dave LindahlDave Lindahl
Empty rentals mean empty bank accounts. There is no greater pain a landlord can endure than a vacant apartment. In order to stay in business, it’s important that all vacancies get filled as fast as possible.
Filling apartments does not come naturally; it is a learned skill. Many landlords, when faced with a vacancy, have a finely tuned, Three-Step System that they can implement at a moment’s notice:
Step 1: Put ad in local paper; Step 2: Put hands together; Step 3: Start praying.
I guess you can’t blame them; that’s what they see all the other landlords doing.
Though using classified ads can be an effective method of renting apartments, it’s not the most effective, and it’s certainly not the only technique you should employ. There are many other ways to find prospects to rent your unit...
Valuing Real Estate Assets (Series: Fairness Issues in Real Estate-Based Bank...Financial Poise
As the expression goes, the value of real estate is in the eye of the beholder. Ultimately, the value is whatever the market is willing to pay. While income producing properties, particularly with creditworthy tenants, may be fairly routine to value based on the current rate of return demands in the market, non-income producing properties may be more speculative.
For example, even the most seasoned appraiser may struggle with finding comparative sales for a property. A landowner might see their property value go up exponentially “if only” the city council will allow for a zoning variance. Many an owner believes that their property is in the “path of progress,” but when? Is it reasonable to value a property “as stabilized” if it is only forty percent leased? These are the types of questions we will consider.

Investing In The US As A Canadian… And How To Do It RIGHT!! (feat. Erwin Szet...Volition Properties
=== Investing In The US As A Canadian… And How To Do It RIGHT!! (feat. Erwin Szeto) ===
Ever been curious about Real Estate Investing in the US?? At Volition, for the past 14 years, we have been focused on helping investors invest in over $250M of real estate and generate $100M of wealth in the Toronto market, but we are always open to learning more about other business models and learning from other investors.
The US has always been an intriguing market to invest in. But the US is a big place… if you’re interested in investing in the US, you probably have a lot of questions, like:
☑️ Specifically WHERE should you invest?
☑️ What are the best markets to invest in and why?
☑️ How much are property prices there?
☑️ What are the returns like?
☑️ What is cashflow like?
☑️ Compared to investing in Toronto or other cities in Ontario, what are the benefits / tradeoffs?
☑️ What ownership structure should I use?
☑️ What are the tax implications?
☑️ Can I get financing?
☑️ What are tenants like?
Enter Erwin Szeto, a longtime friend of Volition. Since 2005, Erwin Szeto and his team have navigated the challenging landscape of being landlords in Ontario. Now, they are shifting their focus and guiding their clients' investments toward the more landlord-friendly environment of the USA. This decision comes after assisting Canadian clients in transacting over $440,000,000 in income properties. Faced with issues like affordability constraints, tenant-friendly laws, rent control, and rental licensing in Canada, Erwin sees a clear opportunity in the U.S. Here, there is a significant influx of investments leading to the creation of high-paying manufacturing jobs. Erwin and his clients are poised to capitalize on these opportunities where landlord rights are stronger and there is no rent control.
To facilitate this transition, Erwin has partnered with and become a client of SHARE, a one-stop-shop U.S. Asset Manager. Founded by Canadians for Canadians, SHARE enables as passive an ownership experience as possible for landlords in the U.S., while still maintaining direct, 100% ownership.

IRA doing the investing, Hall adds.
“So that’s confusing because they get into
trouble by maybe signing a purchase contract (in
their own name),” she says. “Your IRA can’t buy
an asset that you own.”
Consequently, people should wait until they
actually open an account with a qualified custodian
before funding it and making transactions, Hall
says. Generally, a custodian rather than the actual
investor should sign purchase contracts relevant to
self-directed IRAs.
While representatives of companies such as
uDirect IRA do not give actual investment advice
due to potential legal liability, they can help people
follow ever-changing IRS guidelines.
Hall, a former mortgage broker whose work
history includes Bank of America and Indymac
Bank, has educated tens of thousands of investors
into deciding whether self-directed IRAs are right
for them. She and her associates have directly
worked with thousands of clients.
To learn more about self-directed IRAs, call 866-
447-6598 or visit www.udirectira.com
O
ne of the first questions you
will be asked to answer
is do you have an IRA or
401(k)?
If the answer is yes, then
the next question is, so who decides where
your money gets invested?
The answer should be you. Many do not
realize that there is a way to have control
over your own retirement funds.
It has been available for years, but very
few people know about them or under-
stand them. We know you’re not one of
those individuals, or at least in the next 10
minutes will not be fully in the dark on this
interesting subject.
IRAowners after reading this article will
find value in the knowledge and resources
to empower them with a wealth-building
tool.
In today’s financial environment, the
knowledge can be worth thousands to mil-
lions of dollars for a normal household
Hall is the president and founder of uDirect
IRA Services LLC. She is an expert in the
field and has a high priority on education.
This is a good aspect for a custodian to
have, as being able to communicate and ed-
ucate a client on how to use their accounts
is the most important part of having a self
directed IRA. A person has to understand
the rules and having an educated custodian
to hand hold you through the process. This
is not only necessary, but it is a must.
Then you research and find assets, proj-
ects, and/or companies to invest in to grow
the funds. Many people purchase real es-
tate, give private mortgages, buy precious
metals, buy companies, etc. as some of the
investment projects.
Kaaren Hall states, “Remember you are
the one making all the decisions, you’re
the advisor, and it’s not on someone else’s
shoulders. The Securities Exchange Com-
mission (SEC) promotes public awareness
on letting the public know to be careful,
and what type of recourse is available. So
in our welcome packages we supply help-
real estate experience, Kaaren Hall has as-
sisted her nationwide base of clients for
many years.
She is also president and founder of uDi-
rect IRAServices LLC, and speaks at many
real estate club meetings and events to edu-
cate the public on how to use self-directed
IRA accounts. She is a sought after expert
in the field and has assisted national real
estate experts with their own deal structur-
ing and accounts. The service and fees are
the aspects to consider when choosing a
custodian. Having access to the experience
and knowledge is the added value with this
company.

RETIRE WEALTHY
with IRA Investing
By Stephanie B. Mojica
S
elf-directed individual retirement
accounts or IRAs are rapidly growing
in popularity, but experts warn that it is
important to only get into such an investment with
proper education and professional guidance.
Kaaren Hall, owner of uDirect
IRA Services in Orange
County, Calif., says even after
more than two decades in the
financial industry and four years
of running her company she too
must continually stay on top of her
investment education particularly
regarding Internal Revenue Service
guidelines for retirement accounts.
Self-directed IRAs allow people
to invest their retirement funds into
a variety of options outside of the

“Financial literacy is not taught in
schools, but our future depends on
understanding it,” Hall says. “Only
about 4 percent of U.S. investors have a self-directed IRA. Why? Because
most investors and many advisors simply aren’t aware of it.”

directed IRAs often do not fully comprehend is the IRS guidelines of
“prohibited transactions,” according to Hall.
“You’re not allowed to have any personal benefit from your IRA prior to
retirement,” Hall says.
A common misconception among investors is that they can use the
self-directed IRA funds to purchase real estate or other property from
themselves or close relatives such as a spouse, a child, a grandchild,
a parent, a grandparent and any spouses of such relatives. These
transactions are not permitted under self-directed IRAs, according to
Hall. However, an investor could purchase property from a more distant
