I hope you had an awesome weekend. I sure did. Sarah and I took the kids to Busch Gardens on Saturday and we spent yesterday lounging in the pool. It was very relaxing. I hope you had a relaxing weekend too.

While I was lying in the pool, I was thinking of one of the frustrations I hear all too often from my coaching members. They want to be able to find more realtors to refer deals to them and they are either not comfortable speaking with them or they are don’t have the time to call more Realtors on a daily basis.  I’m sick and tired of hearing this so I decided to put an end to it once and for all.

This Wednesday Night at 9:00 pm ET, I am going to be doing a training on how to get more Realtor referrals that you can handle on AUTOPILOT.

Here are just 3 of the 7 topics we will be discussing during the training:

1. How to automatically contact Realtors with your short sale offer without ever picking up the phone
2. How to get your offer in front of hundreds of Realtors every week…while only using 10 minutes of your time
3. How to get the Realtors to chase you down and beg you to take their short sales…instead of you chasing them…It’s all about positioning yourself as the expert. We will show you how Wed night.

And 4 more PROFIT RICH, time saving topics that will be revealed wed night

This is extremely important for your rapid success.  There is no other strategy to get more short sale deals with absolutely ZERO marketing cost that what we will be teaching you.  I’m doing this because I want you to bring me more deals. The only way you can bring me more deals is if you contact more Realtors. I’m going to make it so easy for you to contact them so it doesn’t take you any time to do it.

How to get an unlimited number of Realtor Referrals on autopilot

This article was written on 6/15/09.

Read the article, then read my commentary

Foreclosure Scammers Target Short Sales

Scottsdale, Arizona-based National Short Sale Center says more than 50 percent of the homeowners it is working with to secure short sales have been approached by “circumspect individuals or companies” proffering fraudulent foreclosure rescue services.

With 20 percent of the nation’s homeowners underwater, the Obama administration recently introduced a new component of its Making Home Affordable program, aimed at steering struggling homeowners who do not qualify for a federal loan modification toward short sales. The government’s new plan will pay a servicer $1,000 for completing a successful short sale and will pay the borrower $1,500 to assist with relocation expenses.

While a short sale can prove to be a practicable alternative to foreclosure, National Short Sale Center says many struggling homeowners are confused about short sales and fall for deceptive offers, including phone calls, letters, advertisements, and e-mails (also known as phishing).

Travis Hamel Olsen, president of National Short Sale Center, stressed, “Under no circumstances should anybody be paying an upfront fee to complete a short sale. Unscrupulous companies use myriad ways to take advantage of unsuspecting homeowners. Usually if the deal seems too good to be true, then it probably is.”

Foreclosure and loan modifications scams are a growing area of concern for lawmakers, investigators, and the industry. The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is currently looking into more than 2,100 mortgage fraud cases—a 400 percent increase from five years ago. The recently enacted Fraud Enforcement and Recovery Act of 2009 allocates $500 million to the FBI, Justice Department, Secret Service, and Postal Service to combat mortgage fraud.

The types of fraud circulating include sale-leasebacks, quitclaims, stripping homeowner equity, and misleading homeowners into signing over deeds. And with the administration’s mortgage relief initiatives and its recent push for modifications, dozens of bogus companies with official-sounding names and fake Web sites mimicking the fonts and layouts of government sites claim to help struggling homeowners modify their mortgages. Some unsuspecting borrowers have fallen prey to unscrupulous con artists that take them for up to $7,000 before disappearing.

Olsen said, “The fraud usually comes through in the fine print, but foreclosure rescue teams and highly suspect scammers are basically taking homes through a variety of means, resulting in foreclosure and eviction.”

My Commentary:

This article is a very clear example of why you should always operate with integrity and disclose everything in writing to your sellers. You should not take any up front money from distressed homeowners or take a deed from any distressed homeowners. Stay far far away from lease-backs.

This is why we use the State Approved Real Estate Purchase Agreement that is appropriate to the seller’s foreclosure situation when working with properties through an Agent.

In California, the California Association of Realtors (CAR) contract is referred to as the Notice of Default Purchase Agreement (NODPA). It has the California Required Notice to Cancel built into it.
In Florida, Use the FAR/BAR as-is contract and add the Florida Notice to Cancel addendum to it. You can find the Florida Notice to Cancel on the Bonus page of your VSSI members site.

It’s unfortunate that the unscrupulous investors make a bad name for the industry. The best thing you can do is operate with integrity, comply with your state laws and treat people the way you would want to be treated if you were in their situation.

Foreclosure Scammers Target Short Sales

This article was published on 6/15/09. Read it then read my commentary below it.

Nevada Enacts BPO Law

Nevada Governor Jim Gibbons signed Senate Bill 184 into law last Tuesday. The measure, which received widespread support from real estate brokers, agents, and appraisers in the state, enables broker price opinions (BPOs) to be performed in Nevada and provides the real estate valuation industry there with clarity regarding BPO preparation and delivery. The practice and use of BPOs were unclear among practitioners and heavily contested in the state prior to the passage of this law.

The legislation allows for the preparation and use of BPOs in Nevada for a number of different purposes, including the listing of real property for sale. The new law also allows for the use of BPOs by existing or potential lien holders on a property, so long as the BPO is not used in lieu of an appraisal to decide whether to approve a mortgage loan.

The National Association of BPO Professionals (NABPOP) issued a statement applauding lawmakers for their passage of SB 184, calling the measure “forward-thinking legislation.” Senator Michael Schneider sponsored SB 184 and Assembly members Chad Christensen and Marcus Conklin co-sponsored the bill’s counterpart in the Assembly.

The Nevada Real Estate Commission assembled a BPO Task Force, chaired by Jack Woodcock, which recommended legislation late last year and provided the initial language that was used in drafting SB 184. NABPOP, working alongside the Real Estate Valuation Advocacy Association (REVAA), helped push for the measure’s passage.

Michael Ramer, president of REVAA, commented, “The Nevada legislation sets precedence for lawmakers around the country regarding BPOs. The clarification achieved in this law will enhance the real estate industry by providing more sources of information as well as quicker information for anyone needing to make a decision about real property.”

Ramer went on to explain, “In some situations a full appraisal might be the appropriate product, while in other situations a BPO gives the customer the information they are looking for. It is also very common to get a BPO in addition to a full appraisal which gives the end user even more information. The key is to match the valuation or pricing tool to the need, and Nevada’s legislation now allows users to choose from a full spectrum of valuation tools in appropriate situations”

My Commentary:

There are several take aways from this article.

First is the highlighted text above:

“The new law also allows for the use of BPOs by existing or potential lien holders on a property.”

Second is the mention of the National Association of BPO professionals.

This shows that the BPO process is becoming standardized procedure for lien holders to evaluate a property before and during the foreclosure process.

The more this process becomes more standardized, the more short sales will get approved.

Remember, the lender always has the choice of ordering an appraisal or a BPO. It depends on who the investor is backing the loan, what their requirements are and what type of loan product it is.

Post from: Real Estate Investing & Foreclosures Forum

Nevada Enacts BPO Law

Obama passed these incentives for lenders to approve more short sales. These are very nice incentives and shows the government and the National Association of Realtors are pushing the lending community to favor the short sale option in this Real Estate Market.

This is all great news for you. You will be getting more deals approved and making more money in 2009!

Here are the details with my Commentary:

Obama Administration Announces Financial Incentives and Uniform Process for Short Sales

National Association of REALTORS® Government Affairs Division 500 New Jersey Avenue, NW, Washington DC, 20001 REALTOR® is a registered collective membership mark which may be used only by real estate professionals who are members of the NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS® and subscribe to its strict Code of Ethics Responding to the call of the National Association of REALTORS®,

on May 14, 2009, the Obama Administration announced incentives and uniform procedures for short sales under its new Foreclosure Alternatives Program (FAP). For borrowers who are unable to retain their home under the Making Home Affordable Loan Modification Program, the servicer may consider a short sale or, if that is not successful, a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure. Participating servicers must comply with program requirements so long as they do not conflict with contractual agreements with investors.

Borrowers (Homeowners). Borrowers/homeowners qualify under the FAP if they meet minimum eligibility requirements for the Home Affordable Modification program but don’t qualify for a modification or do not successfully complete the three month trial period. Before proceeding with a foreclosure, servicers must determine if a short sale is appropriate.

D.C.: Most homeowners go back into default after a loan modification anyway so this is great news for us. Many will convert and need a short sale. Follow up and stay in contact with homeowners that opted for a loan mod instead of a short sale. They will result in deals for you down the road.

Incentives. Incentives include: (1) $1,000 for servicers for successful completion of a short sale or deed-in-lieu of foreclosure; (2) $1,500 for borrowers/homeowners to help with relocation expenses; and (3) up to $1,000 toward the cost of paying junior lien holders to release their liens (one dollar from the government for every $2 paid by the investors to the second lien holders).

D.C.: Lenders like incentives and now borrowers can get moving money from a short sale from these FAP transactions. Now 2nd mortgages can get more money on the Hud than the 1st mortgage will approve. That will help a lot.

Standardized Documents. The program will include streamlined and standardized documents, including a Short Sale Agreement and an Offer Acceptance Letter. The goal is to minimize complexity and increase use of the short sale option.

D.C.: It’s about time! I’ve always used my own standardized documents but some lenders are sticklers and still require their own.

Property Valuation by Appraisal or BPO. Servicers will independently establish both property value and minimum acceptable net return, in accordance with investor requirements. The price may be determined based on an appraisal or one or more broker price opinions (BPOs), issued no more than 120 days before the date of the short sale agreement.

D.C.: Not much new here. 

Timeline. In the Short Sale Agreement, servicers must give borrowers/homeowners at least 90 days to market and sell the property, or up to one year, depending on market conditions. Property must be listed with a licensed real estate professional with experience in the neighborhood. No foreclosure may take place during the marketing period (at least 90 days) specified in the Short Sale Agreement.

D.C.: NICE! This is like an automatic postponement of the foreclosure auction. This is Huge for short time (non-judicial) states like GA and TX. The lenders will approve more short sales at lower offers because they won’t want to wait until the 90 days -1 yr expired to retire their bad debt.

Commissions. The Short Sale Agreement must specify the reasonable and customary real estate commissions and costs that may be deducted from the sales price. The servicer must agree not to negotiate a lower commission after an offer has been received.

D.C.: Excellent. More fees on the HUD means lower offers accepted and more money to our agents from the A-B Hud and more profit for us.

No Borrower Fees. Servicers may not charge fees to borrowers/homeowners for participating in the FAP.

D.C.: That’s kind of them!

Program Expiration. The program is in effect through 2012.

D.C.: Well that tells you how long the government thinks we’re going to need to have this program to help liquidate all of these preforeclosures. I told you it was going to get worse before it got better. They will probably extend it after 2012 because we will still be in a buyer’s market then. History repeats itself. The real estate market goes up for 7 years then down for 3.

Deed-in-Lieu of Foreclosure Option. Servicers have the option to require the borrower/homeowner to agree to deed the property to the servicer in exchange for a release from the debt if the property does not sell within the time allowed in the Short Sale Agreement (plus any extensions).

D.C.: This is always a last resort. A short sale is more favorable on a homeowner’s credit report that a voluntary foreclosure (deed-in-lieu)

There is more opportunity out there right now than we’ve ever seen. The time is now! Go get some Deals!

Obama’s Foreclosures Alternatives Plan (FAP) and how it affects you as a short sale investor

I hope you are having an Awesome Day!

I got this question from one of my Platinum Coaching members and thought it would absolutely without a doubt benefit you. My Platinum members have unlimited access to me.

Question: How do I locate areas of the country to work that have high end homes and what resources can you direct me to so I can evaluate different areas of the country to work virtually?

My Answer: Great Question. I’d be more than happy to point you in the right direction to get these resources.

1. Find the areas of the country that have the densest foreclosure activity.

To find the areas of the country that have the densest areas of foreclosures, get the latest foreclosure report from Realtytrac.

Here is one right here:

http://www.foreclosurepulse.com/blogs/mainblog/archive/2009/04/16/foreclosure-activity-hits-record-high-in-first-quarter.aspx

Here are some additional resources from Realtytrac:

http://www.realtytrac.com/news-trends/index.html

http://www.realtytrac.com/TrendCenter/Default.aspx

2. Find the areas with the Lowest Days on Market within the densest foreclosure areas

A. You can get this from the Board of realtors. To Find it in the area you are looking in, do a Google search for “Your county association of realtors”

Go to the board of realtors such as http://www.gtar.org/ and look at market statistics

http://www.gtar.org/files/documents/Public_Stats/mlsmar09.pdf

B. Ask a realtor in the area where the areas are that have the highest priced homes with lowest days on the market or check www.realtytimes.com

Here is another resource for local market conditions: http://realtytimes.com/rtmcrtop/home.htm

3. Here is an extra step that you don’t really need to do but I wanted to provide these for you if you want to do some extra research. The reason why you don’t need to do this is because you are going to instruct your Agents to setup your searches with a minimum value of $500,000. The Searches will automatically find the high end homes for you that are listed with short sale.

Here is a resource where you can find the average home value for any zip code.

Look for the highest average home sale values you can find.

http://www.melissadata.com/lists/ezlists/ezhomeowners.aspx

http://www.melissadata.com/lists/ezlists/ezHomeowners.aspx?zip=33549

Here are the resources to find other markets to work high end homes virtually.

Take action and go do some research and expand your network and contact some agents in the areas you pick. The deals are all over the place. America needs your help! Go help some homeowners.

How to locate areas of the country to work virtual short sales

You need education in order to take action and you need to take action in order to get successful results (big paychecks from luxury home short sales).

It is my responsibility as a business owner to have the drive, the knowledge and resources to put new strategies into action and to change the vision of the company to adapt to the current market conditions to not only survive but thrive. It is my goal to provide you with the knowledge and resources you need to make your business thrive.

Are you betting on social security to provide for your retirement?
I hope not.

Did you know that only 5% of the population at retirement has enough money harvested to retire on?

Will you be part of this 5% or will you be part of the 95% that is betting on social security?

By the time you retire, social security probably won’t even have the money to pay you.

You have the power to create your Destiny. I have designed the life that I’m living and YOU SHOULD design the life that YOU want to live for yourself.

This is only one way to change your life. Create a plan and work the plan. Only you have the power to make it happen. I can give you all of the tools, tricks and resources for success but if you don’t put them into action, you’re not going to get very far.

Real Estate is the vehicle that I have found to make it happen and it will happen for you very quickly. Virtual Short Sale Investing is the fastest way to create wealth in real estate because the pay checks are so Huge. Short Sale Investing is a niche within Real Estate investing and it requires specialized knowledge to be extremely successful. It comes back to Action and Education.

I want you to watch this short video. It’s a video of Dick and Rick Hoyt. The Doctors told Dick his son was going to be a vegetable and they should put him in a hospital for the rest of his life.

How horrible is that of them!

Dick Hoyt did not take their advice. He took action!

Check it Out Here:

If Dick can do this for his Son for his entire life, you CAN do this business. It’s easy when you have the knowledge!  

I hope you choose to join us and be part of the 5%. Do me a favor. If you want to be part of the 5% and are committed to becoming financially wealthy, submit a comment below and let me know publicly. When you let your goals known in public, you will hold yourself accountable to reach them. It’s a fact! Do it! It will change your life and your financial future. Just post a comment below and write something simple. Here’s one you can use:

I’m committed to being financially wealthy because I take full responsibility for my financial future and will not depend on social security to provide for my retirement!!!! I am committed to taking action to implement what I’m learning!  

Action is the first step.

Get in the habit of taking action from the education I am giving you.

I’ll see you at the Top!

most important parts of the short sale process.

One of the ways you can locate properties that are not in foreclosure but they are headed there is to find the properties that are behind on taxes. If the property owner is behind on taxes, they will need to sell the property. They are motivated. 

Here’s what you need to do:  

1.
Contact your county’s tax assessor office and request a list of their tax lien certificates. This will show property owners that are behind on their taxes. Most counties are online now and you can get this info from easily downloading it from their website.  

Some counties have an area where you can sign up to be notified when their new tax lien certificates have been posted.  

Some people teach you to go buy the tax lien certificate from the county and try to foreclosure on it. Don’t do that. It rarely ever works and here’s why:  

When the county forecloses on a property for taxes, all of the lien holders need to be notified by LAW.  When the mortgage company gets this notification, they will opt to pay off the taxes so their mortgage will not get foreclosed off the property. This is because a Tax Lien is a super lien.  

I just got an email from one a tax office in my area. This is what it looks like.  

2.
If the address info is not on the tax lien info you download, you may need to match up the parcel id number with the property address, owner’s contact info and property type. You can cross reference this from the counties online public records.  

(Note: this is why most investors do not target this list. Because it is not easily accessible. This gives us an advantage because most people are not willing to go the extra step.) 

You will go the extra step because these leads are a gold mine, not just for luxury homes but for financially distressed commercial properties too!  

This research stuff is not the best use of your time. Do you think I actually do this grunt work myself?  No, I have one of my assistants or a virtual assistant do it for me.  

Here are a few resources where you can hire a virtual assistant for next to nothing.   

www.va4u.com  

www.global-sky.com 

http://www.asksunday.com/ 

3.
After you get the list compiled, send out a letter or postcard to all of the properties you are interested in. I send to properties over 500K and to all commercial properties.  Have fun and make a ton of money!

This strategy is very effective for finding deals that are headed toward foreclosure but are not on the foreclosure list yet. This is pre-default marketing and in my area, there is only one other company using this strategy other than me !!!  (Hint: no competition)
