In investment real estate just as in many other businesses, the person who finds, successfully analyzes, and acts upon an opportunity usually ends up ahead of the game. Someone who just follows the crowd often finds him or herself in a fierce bidding war for a deal that everyone seems to know about and seems to want. Being first matters. Keeping your "ear to the ground" and developing an intelligence network of sort is a must for the successful real estate investor. 

What sort of opportunities are we talking about?

Purchasing opportunities not yet in the MLS.

Opportunities overlooked where the seller is asking a high price but really expects and will take a much lower offer.

Apartment and multi family properties where the owner wants to sell but does not want the tenants to know about his plans.

Commercial real estate which is seldom (if ever) listed in the MLS.

Foreclosure and pre-foreclosure properties.

REO lender-owned properties not yet listed with an agent. 

Tax sale properties, auction properties, probate properties (owner died), divorce sale properties.

Rehab properties, quick flip properties, cash cows, owner wants out, special situations, owner needs cash, bail outs. 

Partnership purchases, limited partnership opportunities, 1031 exchanges, tax sale properties, auction properties, probate properties (owner died), divorce sale properties.

Developer opportunities, assemblage opportunities, investor partnerships.   

Being first and prepared rather than being just another face in the crowd usually means the difference between making a wise and profitable investment and settling for mediocrity. The same is true in the stock market as is true in real estate. How many people invested in IBM in its infancy? How many people invested in Microsoft when they first came out with MS DOS? How many times have you kicked the dirt and said, "If I had only gotten there first - ahead of everyone else?" Or maybe, "I wish that I had been prepared to move on that deal!"  We can help you to be prepared and can get you opportunities to evaluate and act on. We can help you to get on track - or stay on track - to achieve your financial goals through investment real estate.
