I’d like to know YOUR experiences with continuing education. Sure, you’re fulfilling the requirements of your state, but are you truly learning anything valuable? Is there a course you’d like to have available to you, that hasn’t been created yet? I don’t come across very much discussion from agents themselves regarding their continuing education. Please share in the comments!

education: What You Don't Know About Auction *IS* Hurting You! - 07/22/14 04:36 AM


 
The general consensus on assisting clients with purchases at auction is steeped in stigma and taboo. I’ve been successfully operating in the trustee sale space for over 16 years, and have created a business and system dedicated to assisting clients in finding and purchasing the hottest properties at auction. I’d like to make a few points in the bullets below:
 
 
 
Why Buy at Trustee Sale?
 
 
•          Available inventory not found on MLS
 
•          Lowest price point in the market
 
•          Fastest acquisition time

Can you really call yourself a ‘full service’ Realtor if you don’t know how to work with the people who account for 50% of all transactions?
This is a fact. In the past 5 years, investors are responsible for over 50% of all real estate transactions, and many of those transactions take place at the foreclosure auction. Most of these properties are NOT on MLS.
The American Academy of Real Estate in Mesa has CE credit classes you need if you want to work with investors and attract them like a magnet.

education: Are You Truly A Full Service Realtor? - 02/26/14 03:33 AM
The real estate market is an ever changing landscape. In the past ten years in Phoenix, there have been times when it was a seller’s market, a buyer’s market, and even a period of time when it was absolutely no one’s market!
But one fact of life is that there will always be foreclosures. You know the reasons, no need to go over them here. But one person’s misfortune is another’s opportunity.
I’m a licensed broker, but I specialize in helping investors acquire property at the foreclosure auction. Why the auction?
Because it’s the one place that you can find and … (0 comments)

education: "Can You Find Me A Deal?" - 01/30/14 02:54 AM
A very typical situation: A real estate investor talks with a Realtor and asks, “Can you find me a deal?”
In most cases, the Realtor will jump on MLS, and search for a "deal", some property that is selling for less than market value.
They are not going to find it! Or at least not the kind of "deal" that any investor wants!
Many of today’s real estate investors are "fix and flip" investors. They want in and out in 90 days. You are not going to find a "deal" on MLS that will have a big enough spread between … (0 comments)

education: Please Allow Me To Introduce Myself.... - 01/17/14 05:23 AM
 
I’m Rick Rickert, and I teach agents and investors how to buy foreclosed real estate for profit.
 
So do a whole lot of other people!
 
But here’s the difference. Most of the people out there who are teaching how to invest in real estate only do so in their dimmest memories, and only run real estate businesses in their nightmares.
 
So here is the scoop on me. I am a current investor. I mastered the art of buying foreclosed homes at the foreclosure auctions and have made a fortune. I have made over 200 purchased at auction … (0 comments)

education: Preconceived Notions - 01/14/14 05:43 AM
 
Yet another real estate agent I know told me that "there are no more deals at the foreclosure auction." When I asked if he had ever purchased a property at the auction, the answer was NO.
593 properties, totalling $106,157,772.81 were sold in the last quarter of 2012 at Maricopa County foreclosure auction.
My friend is not stupid, but he is repeating some nonsense that some other agent told him, who heard it from another, who heard it from another.
Sometimes our preconceived notions keep us from moving ahead.
So let me set you straight, there are HUNDREDS … (0 comments)

education: RE Agents: What You Need To Know To Work With Investors - 12/23/13 06:20 AM

If you ask most agents if they are prepared to work with investors, you will probably get a ‘yes’, but that’s probably not very accurate. To be able to work with investors, you have to know what investors want, how to source inventory that is NOT in MLS, and how to source and use hard money.
 
Investors are looking for property that they can acquire at much less than market value, something you will probably not find in MLS. Many of the investors we deal with want to buy a property, do some repairs, and then sell it quickly. … (4 comments)
