He has an incredible story and you will want to be sure to hear it. His name is Scott Sekulow and he’s now known as the “Flipping Rabbi” which is a story I’m going to let him tell you. I’m also going to get his input on the current state of the market.

    Guest: Scott Sekulow Your Questions:
    • Shameka, Atlanta, GA “I’m a new wholesaler and I would appreciate if you would give me some guidance as to what experienced investors are looking for.”
    • Brandon, Atlanta, GA “How do you figure out what it’s going to cost to repair the property?”
    • Roberta, Tampa, FL “What is debt service coverage ratio and why is it important? I just got financing rejected by the lender because of this and it’s a property my mentor said would generate good cash flow. I asked the lender and their explanation was technical and I didn’t understand. I asked my mentor and he said it’s not important and I should just go to another lender. I googled it and that really didn’t help either. I’m buying a house for $120,000 and putting $20,000 down. The payment will be $525.20 per month and the rent is $750. It seems like I’m making $200 per month. How can that be wrong?”

    FAR 233

    Expected Air Date: 3/14/19

    Opening

    On Tuesday afternoon March 12, 2019, the real estate investing world changed. It was the birth of a project two years in the making. It arrived with barely a whisper but in the coming months and years, the impact of this service will profoundly affect the way buyers and sellers of investment properties will do business. Ladies and gentlemen I give you the Flipping America Network - the FAN!

    Music intro.

    From the first Flipping America show two years ago we dreamed of providing for the needs of real estate investors nationwide. As we thought about those needs it came down to three things: Deals, Money, and Methods. So we proceeded to bring you the previous 232 shows focusing on Deals, Money, and Methods, with a little inspiration and business how-to sprinkled in.

    I started in this business in 2002 and from the day I started until now the biggest challenge has almost always been finding that next deal. I say almost because there was a time in 2008-2010 where there were more opportunities than I had the money and capacity to deliver on. But for the most part it's always been about finding that next deal to do. So when we launched this show one of the things we started working on behind the scenes was a way to provide for deal flow for our listeners, friends, and fellow investors. The vision was to create an online marketplace where sellers and buyers could meet and do business. I envisioned a kind of multiple listing service for investors.

    Sellers!

    • Advertise your assignable contracts with pictures of the home
    • Don't waste your time fiddling with mailing programs and buyers' lists.
    • Focus on your next deal rather than your selling infrastructure.

    Buyers!

    • Find your next flip or rental here.
    • Select up to 25 zip codes of interest (not sure of the maximum number)
    • Reserve 48 hour exclusive access to the ZIP code(s) of your choice.

    Homeowners!

    • Have an unwanted house?
    • Facing foreclosure?
    • Transfer? Inheritance? Other life events leading you to sell the property?
    • Post your home here for free. You will get an offer - perhaps several!

    Topic: The FAN Your Questions:
    • “What does it cost to create a profile on the FAN?”
    • What are the technology fees?
    • I heard you can reserve a zip code. Tell me how that works.
    • I inherited a house from a cousin who had no children. It’s 800 miles away. I have no desire to do anything with it, other than sell it. I listed it with a realtor but it needs a lot of work and the listing expired. Can I put this property in the FAN?
    • Do you get to see the actual property address for what is being sold?
    • Will I be able to speak with the seller or wholesaler and ask questions?
    • If I list my property on the FAN but still blast it out to my list and sell to someone on my list, do I still have to pay a technology fee?
    • We pay the technology fee at the time we enter into a contract. What if it doesn’t close?
    • Why do I have to provide a copy of my drivers license photo?
    • What are you doing to prevent daisy-chain listings?
    • Your site says “no dummy listings”. What is a dummy listing? How do you prevent them?
    • Do we do the closings virtually through the FAN or go to a settlement agent and do a regular closing?
    • What is a FAN Provider?

  • Mark Dolfini. The VIP Process
    FAR 230

    Expected Air Date: 2/16/19

    Opening

    Our guest today joined the Marines out of high school, then went to Purdue University where he completed a degree in Accounting. While in college he started acquiring rental properties. He's had some setbacks which you will hear about in a few minutes but today he owns $30 MILLION dollars worth of real estate and he coaches others in the process. What I really appreciate about Mark Dolfini is his thoughtfulness in having you begin your real estate endeavors by first thinking about your life. This is more than your "why". It's a process he calls VIP and if you can get your brain wrapped around this, I think it can make a huge difference in your investing career. His name is Mark Dolfini and he will be with us in a few minutes.

I will do my best to give you a $10 or $100 idea with every post and I WILL be talking about real estate, but I'm going to weigh in on some other topics as well. Which topics? Whatever interests me. And I have a wide range of interests. Coming up in the next few weeks I'm going to weigh in on the immigration debate, I'll be talking about the notion that "you shouldn't listen to what anyone says, just be yourself." (one of the more misguided ideas of our time). And I'm going to spend a little time talking about how we learn because we should be making that part of our life journey. I'll tell you the books I'm reading, the thoughts I'm thinking and the way I'm taking my business.All for less than it would cost you to buy me lunch.
