The Founders behind the real estate marketing brands www.SellMyHouse.com and www.AmericasBestRehabs.com are excited to announce their new partner program for beginning investors. The recognize the fact that thousands of new investors become frustrated every single day because they are not receiving the hands on training they need and deserve.

Hundreds of millions of dollars are spent every year by students paying Gurus around the Country for books, tapes, and mentorships that NEVER result in an actual real estate deal. Students see the GURUs fancy marketing websites showing them in gigantic houses, boats, and cars and believe they must know what they are doing. 

We hear the same story over and over again. Students spend $2500, $5000, and even, $10,000 on a training system but NEVER end up closing a deal from it. The are SOLD the “dream” of NO MONEY DOWN deals and DOUBLE CLOSINGS only to find out later that those kind of deals RARELY EVER CLOSE. 

With over 40 years of combined real estate experience, Jason Roberts and Scott Surgener decided it was time for a change. Jason and Scott have successfully built a national network of both Realtors and Investors who partner with their companies and utilize their brands and marketing platforms to build their own businesses around the country. 

Jason and Scott have now launched a NEW Partner Program offering a “hands on, in the field” approach to teaching beginning investors the realities and techniques they will need to become full-time investors. Each investor spends up to 3 days in Florida learning all aspects of finding, evaluating, rehabbing, and reselling investment deals. The three sectors that are taught include real estate wholesaling, rehabbing and flipping for profit, and finally the art of cash flowing for monthly income. The investor has access to the company’s entire marketing system to find their first deal in their local market. They are offered direct support thru the entire process which typically lasts from 60-90 days.

Jason Roberts, CEO of the corporation says, “We are excited to offer one of the first real estate investment programs in the country that brings a new investor to a markets where we buy and sell houses every single month to learn hands on how real investing works. Real estate is done in the field, not a ballroom.”

Scott Surgener, Senior VP says, “We get tired of hearing all of the war stories that come from people who spend thousands of dollars on books and tapes but never have the confidence to do an actual transaction. We created this program to ensure that our students have the knowledge and confidence to buy a house as well as the marketing system to get it sold. “

The program creates a partnership arrangment where much of their fee is paid after the investors sells their first real estate deal. “We do that to put our money where are mouth is so to speak.”, says Mr. Roberts.

Details of the program can be found by visiting their website.

We all know what has happened to both the stock and real estate markets since the mortgage bubble broke almost 5 years ago. All of us, with the exception of the big banks and select wall street firms of course, have paid the price in the form of stock losses, equity destruction, lost income, and near zero bank yields.

Over the past 20 plus years I have seen 2 stock market collapses and lived thru a real estate debacle that many call The Greatest Depression. As a manager of other people’s money, I’ve had a very difficult time balancing income and capital appreciation returns against risk. For those of you living on retirement or in the business you know exactly what I mean.

My passion has always been real estate investing. I’ve been doing in different forms my entire adult life. That business has also changed dramatically over the last few years. I’m not a believer in investing in anything just for income purposes when the overall asset class is depreciating. Real Estate or a stock has devalued much faster than the income produced from those assets. Neither has been a good investment in recent years.

So we sat on the sidelines for a few years while the real estate market corrected. Thru our real estate website www.sellmyhouse.com, we have seen firsthand what has happened to Main Street during this period. Regarding the stock market, it is accurate to say that I do not trust Wall Street anymore. I believe Main Street feels the same way when gauging the negative equity outflows that have been occurring for over 20 weeks in a row. Flash crashes, bailouts, gigantic bonus plans, and the fleecing of Middle America are all reasons.

Personally, I think it comes down to one simple reason this all occurs now. Corporate America is no longer owned by its managers. Insiders are selling in record droves. Their income comes from bonuses which are paid our long before that money is run thru the ownership chain. They no longer have the financial incentive created from stock ownership that the titans of industry had when this country became the power it was in the 1900’s. CEO’s are like hired guns now. The make millions of dollars even when the company losses billions from bad decisions. Their wealth is not tied to the performance of the stock and therein lays the problem.

For that reason, among others of course, I don’t trust the market anymore. It is manipulated to a level unseen in our history. See POMO for details on how the FED pumps money into the market to artificially raise stock prices.

Never in my 40 plus years have I seen the type of real estate opportunity that is available to the average investor looking for capital appreciation and income potential. You can buy condos in Las Vegas in the $20,000’s and houses in Florida under $100,000. This creates an opportunity to cash flow a property when 3 short years ago the term ‘cash flow positive’ in destination states like California and Arizona were unheard of.

I believe we are much closer to a bottom than we are to a top which means that if you are willing to buy a property and hold on to it for a few years you might see a very nice return from appreciation. Add to that the fact that you can see gross income returns of 7-8% per year from that property and you have an interesting investment opportunity.

We’ll be discussing the various vehicles an investor can utilize in future articles as well as on our radio show (http://www.blogtalkradio.com/sellmyhousecom). They include renting, rent to own, contract for deed, and lease purchase options. Each offer different risk levels and income potential. We’ll discuss all in detail in the coming weeks.

More bad news out of the housing market today as Zillow, a leading online real estate marketplace, released their third quarter report and it largely echos what we saw in yesterday’s Clear Capital report – the housing market is double dipping. Home values fell an average -4.3% in the third quarter. Stan Humphries, the Chief Economist at Zillow says the housing market decline is likely to surpass the Great Depression’s decline and that prices are unlikely to recover before next summer:

While not unexpected, the unceasing declines in home values signal that we’re in for a long, bleak winter of continued troubles for the housing market. The length and depth of the current housing recession is rivaling the Great Depression’s real estate downturn, and, with encouraging signs fading, will easily eclipse it in the coming months.

Humphries also said the number of foreclosures reached a new all-time high and that the number of homeowners under water on their loan has now reached 23% – a high this year. Humphries is not optimistic:

The high percentage of homeowners in negative equity continues to be troubling, in that it represents a huge number of people who are not only more vulnerable to foreclosure, but who are essentially trapped in their current homes and are prevented from selling and buying a new home. This has profound implications for future demand and will be a millstone around the neck of the housing market.

The housing market is playing out almost exactly as I’ve expected in recent years. This still remains a simple supply and demand story. The overhang of inventory is crushing meager demand and the mortgage mess isn’t helping matters as shadow inventory is pushed further into the future. If you thought the housing crisis in the USA was behind us you might want to think again. Housing was the domino that set the credit crisis in motion in 2007 and it could pose a very serious risk in 2011.
