Get Rich From the High Birth Rate - 09/28/10 02:01 PM
 
On a recent episode of my Creating Wealth Show (#174), I (Jason Hartman) returned to the idea of investing in Packaged Commodities. Regular listeners know that when I use that term I am referring to a house or other sort of sturcture sitting on land. After all, what else is a house but a collection of basic commodities like copper, lumber, petroleum products, lead, glass, steel – you get the picture.
What you may not have considered is that the law of supply and demand is heavily on the side of the income property investor. Quick review: as supply diminishes … (1 comments)

Time to refinance your investment properties? - 09/23/10 01:31 PM
 
Refinancing is not just for homeowners. If you have a portfolio of investment properties, you might be leaving money on the table if you don’t investigate the options. At the heart of the matter, an investor refinances a portfolio of properties for the same reason a home owner would his house – to save money.
Maybe when you took out that investment mortgage your credit wasn’t great and neither was the interest rate you ended up with. As time goes by, you get used to paying it and may be under the impression that fooling with a refinance isn’t worth … (0 comments)

Avoid These 8 Mistakes When Investing In Properties - 09/14/10 02:01 PM
Investors themselves often block the path to success with self-defeating attitudes, actions, and especially inaction, failing to “get out of their own way.” While intelligent investing is obviously a better strategy than ignorance, succumbing to “the paralysis of analysis” thwarts any chance of success. Steering a balanced course between the two poles of over- and under-thinking is the key. Focusing on Negative Experiences
Investors who focus on negative experiences and ignore successes suffer from a kind of tunnel vision that prevents them from seeing and understanding the big picture. Maintain perspective rather than allowing a single setback to inform your whole … (3 comments)

Why Women are Great Real Estate Investors - 09/13/10 09:16 PM
Lisa Bromma, author of “Wise Women Invest in Real Estate”, is the guest of Jason Hartman’s (that's me!) Creating Wealth podcast series, episode 143. Despite their capacity for empathy and attention to detail, women have historically been intimidated by real estate investment. Replacing fear with confidence, capital, and expertise is the formula for success, and education is its foundation.
“How you buy a piece of property is where you make your money,” according to Bromma, so it’s vital to know your market before investing. That means being familiar with fair market value and circumstances specific to the property. Determining an ideal … (3 comments)

On the 92nd Episode of my Creating Wealth Show, Pat Buchanan, a former candidate for the republican nomination, joins me (Jason Hartman) in a conversation about the current economic condition and state of the government. Pat states, “we are not on the road to socialism, we are already there,” referring to government social programs, “they have compounded as of late and rarely recede from existence once enacted.”
During the podcast, Pat and I use California as an example of a state in jeopardy. “The producers are leaving and the tax consumers are flooding in; however, the tax burden remains on the … (3 comments)

A letter Addressed to Rush Limbaugh - 09/01/10 12:25 PM
Dear Rush,
We’ve been listening to your show for a while now and are beginning to pick up on a subtle vibe that maybe you don’t completely trust the Obama in Chief with the direction of the country. Not sure if you realize it but spitting in the faces of our Founding Fathers is not even the worst of it.
Have you looked at your portfolio lately?
As a born and raised Missourian from the Show Me state, we’re sure you pay close attention to the direction of your portfolio, which probably feels like a shot put dropped on your foot … (5 comments)

While running my successful real estate and media businesses, I (Jason Hartman) believe that giving back to the community plays an important role in building strong personal relationships. In addition to my real estate investing company (Platinum Properties Investor Network - www.JasonHartman.com), I established The Jason Hartman Foundation in 2005 with $200,000 of my own money to provide financial literacy education to young adults so they can utilize the all important real world skills not taught in school which are the key to the financial stability and success of future generations. We’re in a global monetary crisis caused by decades of misguided policies and the cycle of financial dependence has to be broken, literacy and self-reliance are a good start. I am here to help!
