How To Generate More Real Estate Leads Using BlogTalk Radio

September 6th, 2010 No comments

The world of real estate entrepreneurism is perpetually in need of a new method of promotions. Competition in real estate investing is fierce and if you want to stay ahead the proverbial game, you will need a medium that promotes your interests effectively. Blog Talk Radio – an online radio venture – may prove to be one of the best formats for promoting your business interests.

Yes, by marketing yourself as an expert on the subject via your online radio program, you might be able to expand your commercial ventures significantly. And no, the process is not all that difficult. Even those with limited radio or internet experience can have their program up and running in a relatively short period of time. Once your radio program is live and running, you can effectively promote your real estate venture to an audience that is eager to listen to an entertaining and informative program.

So, where did all this online radio start?

The growth of the internet has spawned a phenomenon known as the new media. As the name implies, this refers to the emergence of a host of mass media ventures that can accrue a loyal and sizable audience. One such venture that has spawned from this is Blog Talk Radio and it is quickly becoming a tremendous vehicle for those wishing to promote themselves, a product, or a service. What is Blog Talk Radio and how does it work? Here is a brief look…

As the name implies, Blog Talk Radio is a form of internet audio blogging. You would produce a series of online radio programs that would air on the Blog Talk Radio network. All you need to do to have a radio program on this format is to combine your internet with a phone service. The entire concept is web-based and that means you do not need to purchase or install any other items in order to have your online radio program up and running.

Programs on Blog Talk Radio are aired (streamed, actually) live. However, archives of the programs can be stored online which means all the old episodes can be listened to in a pre-recorded format. So, any and all programs that you produce will be on the web promoting you and your business venture. Read more…

How To Get A Refund From A Real Estate Coaching Program

August 19th, 2010 26 comments

How to get your money back from karen hanover scamFor the individual who has encountered a shady real estate coaching program, you might feel like you have wasted not only time, but your hard earned money as well. Because of this, you should attempt to get your money back, and this can be done through an easy to follow process. You are entitled to get a refund from these organizations, and you must begin by looking out for yourself.

Many of the real estate coaching programs will have a timeframe that you can request a refund of your money. This is important to note if you have a contract in effect. While it might be a fair amount of time such as 30 days, others might have less than 3 days.

When you are doing this process, make sure you document every contact you have with them. Because of the nature of these businesses, date everything and make a copy of the stamped envelope you send them the information in. If possible, fax documents and save a copy of the send report. If they try to contest anything you will have further proof that you did indeed request your refund in the specified timeframe.

If you used your credit card, and they refuse to refund your money, you have the ability to file a claim against them. For most credit cards you have a 2 – 6 month window that allows you to dispute these charges depending on the issuing bank. Be careful if you have used your debit card, some banks only have a 30 day dispute period from the date of your last printed statement. Contact your card issuer to begin the process of filing a dispute, the contact number is normally on the back of your credit card.

Things to do when you can’t get a Refund

There will be times when a company or individual won’t work with you. In these cases your only option might be to take additional measures to get your money back. Because the coaching is normally a scam, you can take legal matters.

Begin by contacting your State Attorney General. This individual will handle most scams that occur in their state as they try and protect those who reside there. Most people will find that when the Attorney General sends a demand letter to the company you are fighting with a refund quickly follows. In some cases the business is so shady you have to take another set of steps. Read more…

Can your cell phone help you to make more money as a real estate investor?

April 29th, 2010 No comments

RECalcThe Wierman Group, a firm that markets 21st century tools for real estate investors, has debuted 3 new iPhone apps that will help investors save time and make smarter deals.

The Real Estate Investor Offer Calculator is an app that acts as a personal real estate assistant by automating calculations of the Maximum Allowed Offer (MAO), in order to ensure that the investor will make a profit in a particular deal.  This calculator takes into account property price, repairs, closing costs, profit, and other factors in order to instantly determine how much an investor should spend to purchase a property in order to make a profit. By using the Real Estate Investor Offer Calculator, investors can quickly determine whether or not to invest a particular property based on that location’s eventual profitability.

Next, the REO Deal Hunter application automates the search for properties in foreclosure. Each time an investor signs in to this app, they will be able to find the exact contact address for deeply discounted properties.  Investors can use this tool to learn of foreclosure properties in advance, and, unlike other similar free applications listed in the Apple app store, the REO Deal Hunter does not require the investor to subscribe to a web based foreclosure property search service.

Real Estate Investor AlertFinally, the Real Estate Investor Alert application will search by zip code for deeply discounted properties that are currently on the market. On a given day, there may be numerous properties on the market that can be acquired for less than 50 cents on the dollar.  It’s also possible to acquire these properties without investing any of your own money or exhausting your personal credit resources. Using the Real Estate Investor Alert app will point you in the right direction toward finding and purchasing these types of properties.
