I was just browsing some recently sold foreclosures in GA on www.realtytrac.com and there are still some good investment opportunities out there. However, if you ever consider buying from whatever source, do be aware of the conditions that apply and try to avoid the common pitfalls associated with buying a foreclosure.
The common condition applied to most foreclosures is often flagged as follows:
“The owner is not making any warranties or representations concerning any of these properties including their availability.”
Any investor is looking to make a profit either by reselling the property “as is” or … (3 comments)

So, what standards are you holding into? I believe that to change your standards it is necessary to raise the bar and demand more from yourself than you ever achieved before. You must have the conviction and strong willpower to raise your own standards beyond the … (4 comments)

atlanta real estate investors: Gears
- 01/27/14 03:37 AM
I was riding my bike recently on a nice warm day in Atlanta. I thought to myself while I was going up a hill ‘isn't it amazing how the mind can know when to shift gears based on the amount of effort involved as you go up?’ My roadbike has 20 gears to pick from so I have lots of choices. I can make going up this hill as difficult as I can and stand up and try to be Mr. Power Pedaler. Or I could put it down into "granny gear" and while that would probably be the least … (5 comments)

atlanta real estate investors: Rehab Older Houses But Remember To Treat Your Body As A Temple
- 10/28/13 11:47 PM
Rehabbing houses is a lucrative business for savvy investors especially with the recent downturn in the real estate market. However, successful real estate investors don't just focus on big bucks with home improvement. They invested more of their time, money, sweat, tears and equity to make a property good enough to attract a prospective buyer. Several real estate investors would also hire contractors to do the job but there are some who would really like to spend their time and become hands on with their rehabbing efforts. As we all know there is more fun in rehabbing properties when … (0 comments)
Postcard marketing is a powerful tool to get your message across. No doubt about it. Maybe not everyone will agree with me, however as a real estate investor I've proven that a postcard is effective in reaching out to homeowners. This can be quite tedious, time consuming and can be complicated to some at first. But once you know the right approach you will find it to be easy. You have to do your part to make it work. And marketing using direct mail still performed better than digital marketing. The response rate of 1.1 to 1.4 percent versus … (0 comments)

atlanta real estate investors: Is It Time To Sell Your Investment Property?
- 04/12/13 09:37 AM
It is now well documented that inventories in markets that were rich with investment opportunities just one year ago have been drying up quite a bit. Hedge funds, private equity firms, and institutional backed organizations have been coming in and buying up inventory en masse. As a result, inventory has dried up! The result of all these is simple economics…less supply, higher demand, higher prices. And so we’ve seen some rather inflated inflation of prices in some parts of town. We have seen houses that sold for 50,000 one year ago now selling in the 70000-80000 dollar range. This is quite … (0 comments)
Even a well run real estate business with a good reputation and with a foresight to weigh up possible risks can still run into unexpected problems and setbacks. Skilled real estate investors buy houses and resell them so quickly for a return on their investment so that any costs incurred are residual and easily absorbed by the profits. Flipping houses, whether or not there is any rehab, is associated with wholesaling. And the principle of connecting sellers to buyer’s works for all kinds of commodities, including houses. After starting out in real estate business, a few successful transactions … (1 comments)
atlanta real estate investors: Are you sure you want to sell the house?
- 03/29/13 01:05 AM
Are you sure you want to sell the house? That is what I thought recently on a counter I received for 40000 over list price recently. That’s 40 thousand, not four thousand so there is no typo. The story goes that we made an offer not far below what sales in the area were going for that needed a very large amount of work (approx. 120000). This property was listed at 110000 and has been sitting vacant for two years. So…we walked the property and while it needed work, we found out that the back third of the house is literally falling down. Literally meaning there … (3 comments)
atlanta real estate investors: To Succeed in Investing in Real Estate Don’t Let Dollar Signs Blind Your Vision
- 03/06/13 04:33 AM
Consider this scenario and see how the folks you meet up to do business with perceive you. If you always have an agenda to resell and flip houses and that’s the extent of your vocabulary, then you are missing out. People appreciate some personal touch, some rapport and a relationship that’s not just ‘okay, it’s sold, I gotta go, I am done here!’, ‘Thank you, sir or ma’am.’ ‘I don’t have business talking with this guy anymore, I got what I wanted.’ Your goal to succeed is dependent on how you manage to transform your business goal into something more … (0 comments)
