Real Estate Investors Must Diversify Or Die in 2011

Posted: Jan 04, 2011 |Comments: 0 |

Real Estate Investors are in for a tougher time in 2011 unless they adapt their current methods of investing. I'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news today but there's some data I have in my hands that I must reveal to you.

Short Sale flips are tougher to do than ever. There simply aren't enough people who can get bank loans to "cash you out" once you get your short sale approval from the bank. Plus title companies are very strict on disclosing back to back flips to both the "A" and "C" lenders. Anyone who's an active short sale flipper knows this is getting tougher to do.

Rehab flips are tougher to do than ever. Title problems and "robo-signing" scandals have tainted the title to many properties and caused uncertainty about the quality of title when buying an REO. On top of that buyers must have a 700+ credit score on average to qualify for a FHA loan plus a down payment. This means there are less buyer's to "cash you out" using FHA loans.

Most leads that you will generate into your real estate business will be houses with little or no equity. So if you are an "equity" wholesaler you will have trouble getting "equity" leads in 2011. My prediction is that this is just 5% of the deals I'll do in 2011.80 -100 million people - roughly 30% of our entire population cannot qualify for a traditional bank loan. Cool thing is there's a "golden opportunity" that's been created because of tighter bank lending standards.Credit is expected to tighten in 2011, not loosen, according to Inside Mortgage Finance magazine.

Look at these statitics 10.7 million home owners have no equity according to CoreLogic. Another 4.3 million have very little equity. They are 87% - 100% leveraged. The FHA short refi program has helped just 3 people in 4 months. Just ask the FHA. *52% of all HAMP loan modifications "fall out" within 6 months. Just ask Obama. He knows.

So where are the real estate investment opportunities in 2011? What can you do about this and still be a successful investor in 2011? The answer: Go where the money is and diversify into strategies that do not require banks at all.

There are four simple, fast, safe and easy ways for you to make money that don't require any banks whatsoever that you can profit from any type of property. Houses with equity, houses with no equity and no default (which are most common) and over-leveraged houses in foreclosure (short sales).The investment strategies are proven and have been used by astute investors since 2004. Just now in late 2010 and 2011 they really going to "blast off" because of the current state of the financial markets.

These four techniques will enable investors to continue to profit for many years to come. Some investors are finding that they can get cash now, cash flow each month, and then cash out down the road without ever owning the home. These types of leads are everywhere and require little to no marketing costs on your part to obtain. This is the easiest, fastest way to make money in real estate with no money, bad credit, and no loans for you or your buyers. So position yourself and your business for massive success in 2011 without any banks, FHA loans, private money or government programs using new "Cash Infusion" strategies.

I personally think the jokers at Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and FHA are not all bad guys. They just are in over their heads. A recent Fannie Mae study showed 54% of the people surveyed want to buy a home in 2011. They realize there are lower prices than ever out there. Problem is with the current Fannie and Freddie and FHA guidelines they simply won't qualify. So how are you going to use this to your advantage?

    The key reason why some firms thrive while some implode during an financial recession is still a puzzle to many people business-owning business owners. Some wrongly assume that all businesses should suffer via recessionary cycles. But the truth is that some companies are usually essentially recession-proof, and it is not necessarily because they are much larger, better known, or a lot more generously capitalized.
