Kevin Bupp

In this week's cash flow Friday tip I want to cover a topic that I think all of us can relate to; and it doesn't matter whether you're new or a seasoned investor who has done hundreds or thousands of deals because we've all experienced a point in time where we felt like we had failed at reaching our goal as an investor or maybe it was a time when we were in a rut and couldn't see the light of day.

Today's show is a result of a recent article that I read which was written by Multi-Family investor, Chris Urso and in this article Chris describes the 3 most common ways that investors get stuck and how to get unstuck and keep moving forward toward success.

This week's Cash Flow Friday tip is a slightly different format than our other Friday shows in that it's not really a tip but a recap from my recent trip to Iowa where I was performing due diligence on a park we have under contract. This will be helpful for not only those who are interested in buying mobile home parks, but also for anyone who is looking for purchase an income property.

At the end of the day, your job is to try and match up all of the pieces of the puzzle and identify the ones that don't fit and then determine why. In other words, create the factual story of how the property is really performing, not how the owner told you it was performing.

In this week's Cash Flow Friday tip I'd like to discuss a recent dilemma I faced with the "one" property I self manage and how it added an obscene amount of stress during my recent 2 week family vacation to Europe and why it's prompted me to sell this property asap.

The takeaway lesson behind this recent personal story is that you need to focus on being an investor and never take on the role of being a landlord if your goal buy ativan uk is to build a scalable real estate empire. Learn from my mistakes and be the smarter investor!

In this week's Cash Flow Friday tip I want to talk about the offer making process when buying income properly and why it's vitally important for you to have systems and processes in place to continually follow up with sellers and property owners "After" your initial offer was declined or after you lost a property to another buyer.

Let me tell you exactly what I mean by this. You see, being that we are all human and our lives are forever changing, circumstances have a tendency to change from day to day which means that although a seller might have declined your offer on Tuesday doesn't mean that their circumstances might change on Friday which will make them a more motivated seller. Throughout my 15+ years as an investor this theory has held true time and time again which has allowed me to buy multiple properties from owners who originally declined my original offer. Most investors take the approach of "once and done" and will completely lose interest in a deal if their original offer gets declined which is the complete wrong approach to take.

So here's what I want you to take away from this week's tip. Whether you're dealing with a broker or directly with a property owner it's your duty as a savvy investor to stay in constant contact with them after your initial offer was declined and this can be through either email or phone and it's up to you to choose the one that best suits that particular relationship. And with technology setting reminders for this type of activity are super simple by using many of the free CRM software systems available on the market, your smartphone, or even the old school method of writing it down in a planner. I don't care how you track it as long as you actually do it.

I can promise that if you'll significantly increase your number of accepted offers if you use this one simple technique, plus it will win you a ton of brownie points with brokers if it's a listed property. So as soon as you finish listening to this podcast I want you to create your follow up plan or system on how you plan to stay in touch with brokers or sellers who have declined your initial offer.
