Is Your Real Estate Investing Comfort Zone Being Threatened?
by Ben Innes-Ker
Have you ever imagined yourself putting through a multi-million dollar deal,
going to closing and picking up a check with six zeros? It's the ultimate dream
for real estate investors. But why must it be a dream when it can just as easily
be a reality. Every day there are real estate investors making offers on high
end houses just as there are real estate investors making offers on median price
range houses and below. There are just a lot fewer going after the big game.
High dollar houses naturally instill fear in real estate investors as they feel
if they make a mistake they will be sued for hundreds of thousands. Real estate
investors perceive they need perfect credit, a high net worth and millions of
dollars already to buy million dollar houses, so they exclude themselves as
buyers and don't pursue high end deals. Most real estate investors feel they
don't deserve to buy a million dollar house or to be talking with the people
that own them. They have a self image that equates themselves with lower price
range houses and the people that own them, so those are the houses they pursue.
All of these reasons are fear in one form or another, and none of them are real.
The beings that own high end houses are people, and they get divorced, lose
their jobs, go out of business, make stupid mistakes, have bad financial
management, and do all of the things that result in financial distress and
necessitate a quick sale. The high dollar properties they own are real estate,
just like the two bedroom one bath house in the median price range neighborhood,
It can be put under contract, optioned, or creatively financed just like any
other house in any other price range.
But real estate investors avoid them, and in doing so, prevent their most
heartfelt dreams from coming true. The key point all real estate entrepreneurs
and investors must understand is that owners of high end houses who are
experiencing problems need the solutions that well trained investors can
provide. And as with all real estate deals, when done properly, everybody wins.
The seller gets the house sold and some cash to move, the bank gets their loans
paid off, the new buyer gets a house they love, and the investor makes a profit.
A Six (or Seven) Figure Profit!
Going after high end houses is a choice. Real estate investors can attract these
million dollar deals to them by setting up marketing systems that target high
end houses only, and leave the lower price ranges alone. By making high end
homeowners the only people you contact with your marketing, high end homeowners
are the only ones that call in response. And when real estate investors have a
steady stream of motivated sellers with high end houses calling them every day,
their desks begin to fill up with million dollar deals. Just like a hunter going
after big game, the real estate investor who sets their marketing sights on high
end deals, and persists, the moment arrives when their real estate investing
dreams come true.
