Hey there Gerard!

My names Andre and I just wanted to extend my courtesy and say that its pleasure meeting a new friend on Dean's website. I'm from Huntington Beach, CA and I'm still trying to work on my first deal. I'm almost done with his recent book "Profit From Real Estate Right Now" and then its off to the success academy, which I'm super thrilled about. I wasn't fortunate enough to obtain my own copy of Dean's Edge home course program, but I still feel confident and my faith is still high. I think anything is possible and with that window of opportunity Dean mentions a lot, I think I'm looking at more goals and dreams than I ever imagined! Oh and speaking of faith, I noticed you visit one of my other favorite idol's website....Joel Osteen! I love the guy and I watch him every Sunday. I also have both of his books, which are tremendously inspirational! Well anyways, I hope we can keep in touch, get each other fired up and motivated, and stay strong friends under the same family of DG. Take care and god bless!

10 Real Estate Investing Myths You Must Vanquish

by Attorney William Bronchick

These are the Top 10 reasons people use for not succeeding in real estate investing. OK, maybe this list is a bit obnoxious, but I'm trying to make a point. If I offend anyone with this list, it probably means I'm right on track!

Reason #1: I have no cash

The Myth: "You need money to make money"

The Truth: Find a good real estate deal, and the money will find you. Ask any seasoned investor and they will tell you that lack of funds is never an issue; lack of good deals is! If you can negotiate a good price on a house, you will find plenty of partners willing to put up the money.

Reason #2: I have no time

The Myth: "I've got a job, a spouse, kids and very little time"

The Truth: Throw out your television, and you'll have all the time you need. People spend an average three hours per day in front of the tube. They spend even more time on weekends.

Want to do something fun this Saturday? Load the kids in the mini van and go driving around looking for ugly houses. Make a game out of it giving a dollar to each of your kids that spots an ugly house. Tell them that each ugly house your buy means enough money to take them all to Disney World.

Reason #3: Everyone says this stuff doesn't work

The Myth: "That late-night TV stuff doesn't work"

The Truth: You can convince yourself that anything won't work. Henry Ford once said, "Whether you think you can or think you can't, you are right."

Every real estate transaction has risks; some risks are realistic, while others are remote. If you listen to the critics, the naysayers and other pessimists, you'll convince yourself it doesn't work.

Most people that criticize money-making ideas need to do so for their own ego. After all, if it were true, what's their excuse for not being successful? Make it a point of not taking financial advice from anyone who makes less than you do.

Reason #4: There's too much competition

The Myth: "Too many people are buying houses to find a deal"

The Truth: There are more than enough deals to make everyone rich. At any given time there are hundreds of properties for sale in your market for each investor looking for them. In addition, a majority of people who say they are investors are just sitting on the sidelines waiting for someone to fall in their lap. Don't be one of them - go out and make deals happen.

Reason #5: It doesn't work in my market

The Myth: "It doesn't work in my market."

The Truth: It works in EVERY market. True, it may work differently in some markets than in others, but there are investors making money in every city, every day of the week. You have to learn your market: the rents, the trends, the local customs, the bankers, the title companies, etc.

Then, learn the techniques and adapt them for your market. Six months ago, someone told me that the San Francisco Bay Area market was "too hot" to find a deal. Really? Talk to me in a few months after the rash of technology layoffs!

Reason #6: The recession is coming

The Myth: "Certainly, the September 11th tragedy, the huge number of layoffs and the decline of the stock market will kills the economy, so anything I buy will go down in value."

The Truth: Sell cheaper or with attractive terms. When Dell wants to move computers, they drop the price. When GM wants to move cars they offer no interest financing. Be creative and go things they make your houses sell and rent faster.

If the prices are falling, buy way below market and sell just below market. If rental vacancies go up, offer free satellite TV (heck, it's $25/month. When everyone else is "dooming and glooming", it only clears out the competition.

Reason #7: Realtors won't cooperate with me

The Myth: "Real estate agents don't want to cooperate with investors"

The Truth: The right agent can be your best friend and #1 source of business. I have a one agent that brought me six deals in the past year. He knows exactly what I want and only calls me when there's a deal.

You need to educate a few agents and let them know exactly what you want. Few agents have repeat customers - you have to make them understand that you will be giving them business over and over again.

Reason #8: I have bad credit

The Myth: "I need good credit to buy houses"

The Reality: Good credit helps, but you don't need it to make money in real estate. Lease/options, owner-financing, flipping properties and other creative techniques will allow you to buy real estate without credit.

You can always use a partner who has good credit. You can also borrow "hard money" without having good credit. In the meantime, you can work on fixing your bad credit so you can use it as an asset in the future.

Reason #9: I might lose money

The Myth: Real estate is very risky

The Reality: Real estate is one of the safest investments you can buy. The stock market is beyond your control. Savings, CD's and money market funds won't give your enough return to make money. You have to be willing to take a calculated risk to make money.

The more you educate yourself, the less risky real estate becomes. However, don't think you need to know EVERYTHING before taking action.

Reason #10: I don't know what to do

The Myth: I need to learn more before I start

The Reality: You probably know more than enough to get started in real estate. It takes years to learn a lot. You never learn everything.

Success is an ongoing learning process. Read some books, take some seminars and go take MASSIVE action. Then, learn some more and take a lot more action. If you are really impatient, enlist the help of others.

Henry Ford said, "Why should I clutter my mind with general information when I have men around me who can supply any knowledge I need?" He was a smart man because he realized that he didn't need to know it all if he could consult with others that did.

Ronald Reagan's cabinet was said to be the team of the brightest people in politics. The bottom line is that if you want to succeed faster with less risk, have someone you can call on for knowledge.

hi guys my name is Scott i just got my books 2 days ago i live in Connecticut i joined the classes but i'm have a problem and was wondering if you could help it's tell me to go to real estate groups to make a buyers list and of course living in Connecticut i can't seem to find any can anyone tell me how about going to look for buyers

I live in Burl.Co. and would like to network with others in the area. I'm currently unable to attend REI clubs in person due to childcare conflict. I am trying to build a buyers list, but it has been very slow going. Once done, I will begin assignment of contracts. Interested in leads to build my list,also for a power team to put together-any referrences? Thanks!

Hello my name is Jose Guzman and I am really needing some help as soon as possible or I think I will lose out on good deal. I am in Houston,TX and I have potential earnings on a comercial property. Here is the scinorio, a good friend of mine is a club owner and wants to sell the property. I have found a buyer that is very interested and is already on a trial basis working in the club to see how the business works and well its almost a done deal that the buyer will buy. My friend, the owner of the club had already promised me a 4-5% on the sale if it goes through. I want it to be legal but I dont know how to go about it if real estate agents are involved. As far as I know there are no real estate agents involved at this time. I was wondering if I can use an assignment contract and if so how should I handle this? My finders fee would be devided into me and another person which we found the deal for my friend. Any advise would be greatly appriciated. Thank You

I'd like to speak with you at some point. PM me when you have a moment. Looking forward to hearing from you.

Thanks.

You were under Connecticut rei group. Is that so? I really need to connect with someone from my area. Although I've for the last year been trying to get into real estate for the last week it has been my religion. I have more than $4 million from buyers looking to purchase in CT. I know that right now with all that I've been doing the answer is right there but I can't see the forest from the trees I am so immersed. Found some great topics in active forum that may help me but I would like to partner up with someone. Everyone on my powerteam looking up to me for the lead and I don't really know where I'm going.
