Jack Miller Update

We have not done a lot of seminars or events this year as the market is changing and there are not a lot of substantive speakers available to educate on how to approach the real estate market today. There are plenty of marketers out there, with a lot of fluff and no substance, who follow a presentation with a heavy sales pitch for product as this is how they are making their money now. Jack Miller is the real deal and is well worth your time. I recently attended an 3-day event that he hosted, and never once heard him refer to a product that we should buy...

This market is very different to what we have experienced the last several years, and it is the old-timers with the gray hair who can assist us with navigating this cycle successfully. So that being said - I am very pleased to announce that we are indeed going to host the legendary Jack Miller on Saturday, September 6th, (and at our SJREI meeting on September 4th) for an all day purely information seminar. Jack is an internationally known speaker who has done creative financing deals that most of us cannot conceive of yet, and I know that his presentation will be so very helpful to us investors. Creative financing will be the key to success this cycle so mark your calandars. Click here to listen to this 79 year old share his wisdom.

REO Status Update

It is a dicey market out there - lots of banks are closing their doors and getting financing is no small accomplishment. Realtors are making little or no money since the market has changed, but those who are focused on REO's are doing just fine. REO inventories are climbing rapidly - we need to understand what that means for us. Our SJREI meeting on Thursday will feature several succcessful professionals who will address these changes and share ideas on how we can navigate those successfully as investors. We will also discuss areas that are hot and areas that are not, and present the numbers and facts so that decisions to invest are made based on good solid data.

Check out the first article below - commuters are no longer willing to commute to work, it costs too much. Those houses purchased in Modesto and beyond are going into foreclosure and the occupants are moving back to the Bay area for jobs. Gas prices are a key factor in this decision. As investors we need to understand the dynamics of why we are buying? What are the economic drivers in the area? Who will our renters be? Where are the job centers? We will address all of these and more at our meeting this week. We hope to see you there!
