Borrow private money from folks who are not in the business. Let me tell you what that is. Basically a lot of folks that are close to real estate, also understand money and they understand interest rates and they understand the power of that and they understand just how much profit you can make by allowing them allowing you to borrow their money. Typically when you’re close to real estate, you’re actually paying more for the money if you’re borrowing it from another real estate investor or if you’re borrowing from a private money lender that’s affiliated or associated with real estate.

A Foolproof Tool that Show’s the Seller Your Offer is Generous – Street Smart Cash Flow Accelerator #31

Show the seller what it will cost them to sell their home the traditional way or the typical way. All right, when I’m making a presentation to the seller, one of the things we do is a thing called a cost to sell worksheet. We actually share with the seller what those costs are. We talk about the real estate commission. If they were to list their home, we talk about closing costs, we talk about repairs to the property, all the different aspects of what it will cost them to sell their home, and if they were to move. Let’s say they’re being transferred to another state, then that’s another cost that has to be considered as well.

Show The Seller Of The Home Or Property The Benefits Of Doing Business With You – Street Smart Cash Flow Accelerator #24

Today’s tip is number 24 show the seller how you are benefiting them. Now, this is so important because many times sellers really don’t appreciate some of the things that you’re bringing to the table. One of them is that you can close quickly. Now that can be very valuable to a seller, so you want to contrast that. Well, of course, Mr. Mrs. Jones. You have an opportunity now to go ahead and put your property on the market with a real estate agent and they’re going to tie it up typically for at least six months. Most real estate agents won’t even take a listing for three months. They only want six months or even longer, and in fact, if things don’t work out, they’re going to ask you to relist the property.

Get All The Issues Uncovered Before You Make An Offer – Street Smart Cash Flow Accelerator #23

Today’s tip is number 23 it’s about negotiations. Get all the issues covered before you make an offer. Well that’s so important when you’re putting a deal together. Sometimes you negotiate one part but you really haven’t gotten all the pieces put together yet. So you might’ve gotten agreement over here and then you have to bring another issue to the table and you have to get agreement on that. And then there’s another issue and you have to get agreement on that. So what I suggest is before you close, before you actually agree, say, okay well we can take that under consideration. What else do you need to hear about? Or what else is of concern to you? And then you put that back to the seller and they say, well I don’t have anything else.
