http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DyCSDWBENwc

1. Do your research up front – talk to the seller, research the property on the internet and make a cash offer, either by fax or phone.

2. Get the property under contract… first! Then make an appointment to go see the house.

3. Renegotiate or cancel, if necessary – If, when you see the property, feel that you’ve been mislead, either renegotiate your purchase price (down), or cancel the contract altogether, due to a failed inspection.

If the property is satisfactory, flip it and make a lot of dough…

1. Call every title company in your city.

2. Tell them you deal in cash transactions.

3. Show them your contracts and make sure they accept them.

4. Negotiate their fees – a flat fee per transaction is the best.

Yo,

Here’s your Wholesale Coaching, Inc. killer flip tip.

If you’re as easily trained as The Maestro’s Yorkie, Simon, you will make a ton of money in this business.

Hey, I know what you’re saying.  Maestro, did you really send me here to watch your stupid dog do tricks? Uh, yes, I did.  And if you call him stupid again, we’re gonna have issues…

But here is why it’s important.  One, never, ever be under the impression that you know it all.  Be teachable… and be a sponge.  I freaking love it when a potential partner comes to me as a complete newbie.  Why?  Cuz I know he or she is teachable.  And you have to be, regardless of your experience.  If you come to the point where you think you know it all, that’s where you’ll begin to lose it.

And, in my own life, I constantly strive to be better.  How do I do that?  I pick the brains of people who know more than me.  I read books, I reach out to people and I do whatever it takes to make it happen.  And I pay attention, too.  Noah St. John said it best.  He said, “When something becomes a priority to you, you find a way to make it happen.”  And learning, and working on my craft, is a priority of mine.  In order to do that, though, I need to be teachable.

And two, it really, really helps you if you are 7 lbs and adorable.  I’m not kidding.  My dog, Simon, flips more houses than I do…

Remember, it’s a buyer’s market… and you’re the buyer!  And another thing, don’t ever, ever, ever feel bad for making low-ball offers.  You’re a solutions-provider, their hero and savior!  You’re not some person trying to pull a fast one.  You are there to provide assistance, but in order to do that, you have to get your price.

Never let the seller dictate the parameters, or even the conversation.  They are in your world, and you run the show.  And never be afraid to walk away from a deal.  You’re there to help, and if the seller doesn’t want your help, someone else will.  Be confident, but sympathetic to their plight.  Be understanding, but firm, too.

If you’re having issues with confidence, self-esteem, public speaking or anything else, go where The Maestro goes:

Think Right Now, Int’l

This company’s products saved my career… and income!  Seriously.  And I still use them today…

Smartly?  Ok, so I may have made that word up.  You know what I’m saying, though… )

To recap:

use 2o to market for buyers: $.40 on the dollar, tons of equity, must sell right now, untraceable phone number from patlive.com

explain that property has been sold, but they are now a VIP buyer.

You’re welcome!

Ok, so I’m straight piggy-backing off of last week’s blog.  Seriously, my world has been turned upside down in the past two weeks… literally.  And I must say… it’s freaking addicting.

And no, I’m not talking about flipping houses (my first love).  I’m talking about our humanitarian ventures.

Less than a year ago, I wrote down my goals.  I wrote down professional, personal and spiritual goals.  I categorized them into groups of 3-5 year goals, and 20 year goals.  Literally, one of my 3-5 year goals was to start, or contribute to a charity, or non-profit. 

A few weeks later, Jason called…

I know.  Freaked me out, too.  But, if you’ve read my book, you know how much I believe in writing down goals.  It’s like a personal letter to God, or something.  For some reason, writing them down makes them come true.  Crazy, but true.

So, last week, we partnered with a global effort, called LiNK.  We watched the movie, Crossing.  I cried my eyes out…

Ok, so I didn’t actually cry.  I did, though, manage to conjure up every bit of strength I had, to keep the tears from falling down my face.  I mean, I was in a room full of people, most of which I didn’t know. 

I couldn’t let them see The Maestro cry.  No what I mean…

Here’s the bottom line.  North Korea… is Nazi Germany.  Crazy Kim is Hitler.  And the North Korean people are the Jews.  Plain and simple.  You doubt my veracity? 

Watch this.  Then, go HERE and register for the 9 Lives program.  I did.  It’s $9 a month.  That’s what I spend when I go to lunch… 5 days a week.  So I miss one lunch a month.  Is that worth saving a life?

I think so.

Get involved.  Remember, we reap what we sow.  And, as the old cliche’ goes, what goes around, comes around.  Being a humanitarian will give you so much joy, you won’t be able to handle it all.

And what goes around… comes around.

Last night, I saw the most ridiculously sad, and heartbreaking, documentary, that I’ve EVER seen.  Afterward, I promptly thanked my friend, and founder of Current, Jason Sowell, for ruining my night.  And life, for that matter…

Because now, I HAVE to do something.  That’s right, the Maestro is on the case.

Look, it’s one thing when people are abducted, abused or oppressed.  It’s another when it’s children.  And that’s exactly what is going on in Northern Uganda, located in Africa.  And don’t give me any crap about how you don’t care about people in other countries.  And how Americans have it tough right now.

Spare me.

I know a bunch of people who have been laid off lately, and I feel for them all.  However, every single one of them goes to sleep in a bed, eats three meals a day and lives a free life.

Not the children of Uganda.  Actually, many of them are not children anymore.  A more appropriate title may be “slaves.”  Slaves – 5 to 12 yr olds – that are forced to carry assault rifles for fear of mutilation or death, trained to kill, desensitized to brutality and violence… and robbed of their freedom.

Yep.  That is more appropriate…

Folks, I implore you.  Get over to Invisible Children right now and get educated.  Then, get involved.  The DVD is $15.  It’s $15 you can’t afford NOT to spend.  Be aware, though.  You’ll either be fighting back the tears… or balling your eyes out, when it’s over.  Also be aware that I profit nothing by this.  My only profit is the feeling of knowing I’m helping.

Look, wholesaling is my profession… and I freaking love it.  I love the life I’ve built.  I love the luxuries my hard work has afforded me.  But let me tell you, I love something so much more. 

My fellow man.

I am a huge believer in the notion that we reap what we sow.  And a life without purpose, is not a life at all.  Helping to rescue just one child from abduction, rape, beatings and/or death, is so much more fulfilling than flipping a house, or depositing a check.  Because in the end, isn’t it our duty as human beings to look after those who are less fortunate?

I think it is. 

It’s our duty to be educated.  To know that every place in the world isn’t America.  To realize that saving a life is better than saving our pennies.  And to live a life of purpose.

I pray that you believe me.  If you watch this DVD, you will…
