Real Estate Investing Expert, Mike Eckerman, Announces the Five Best Strategies to Be a Savvy Real Estate Investor in Todays Las Vegas Market

Monday, October 14th, 2013


Las Vegas, Nevada (PRWEB) September 27, 2013

Not many will argue that 2013 has been a good year for the Las Vegas real estate market. According to real estate data and research site, DQ News. Home price increases, for the former ground zero of the 2008 real estate collapse, have increases nearly 35% from a year ago. In addition, the National Association of Realtors reported a national six and half year high for existing home sales in August, crediting demand on limited inventory for the continued surge. New construction on single family homes is also on the rise, hitting a five year high, according to a report from the Commerce Department. Many of those permits have been issued in Las Vegas. All the signs of a sustained recovery are here. We have limited inventory and high demand continuing as well as an increase in new home construction says Mike Eckerman, CEO of Novus Dia Financial, a real estate asset management firm.

Eckerman is quick to point out the important role cash investors have had assisting in the recovery. According to Eckerman, investors are mainstays in Las Vegas and continue to pick up many of those distressed properties which have contributed to the overall growth. Like any other business, real estate investing requires a deep understanding of the market and its income producing potential. Las Vegas has been a hot market for first time, smaller investors and the larger, more sophisticated investors. Its a very competitive market right now, explains Eckerman.

With all of those encouraging components in play, Eckerman announces five important strategies to follow in order to become a savvy and sophisticated real estate investor in the Las Vegas market.

1. Know the Market: Having firsthand knowledge of the Las Vegas market can pay off in dividends. For example; According to the latest report from GLVAR, Las Vegas leads the nation in home price increases. Eckerman says to monitor those trends regularly and have a confident feel for where the market is headed.

2. Treat the Investment like a Business: Becoming a savvy investor means its important to approach the investment like a business. Like any business, the investor wants to see a profit. Its a great idea to draft up a business plan to include any potential overhead costs, such as construction improvements that may be needed prior to leasing out the property. Be prepared and have those potential expenses in order, Eckerman says.

3. Build a Network: In a competitive market like Las Vegas, the importance of networking can greatly increase the chances of cutting through the competition. It can also create new investment opportunities. Eckerman says, reaching out to other investors and setting up a rapport with successful real estate professionals in your key market can be extremely rewarding.

4. Understand the Risks and Have and Exit Strategy: Eckerman encourages using a buy and hold strategy on properties with terms between 3-7 years in order to see the long term appreciation on the property. This method allows the investor to get an accurate snapshot of the market in preparation if the right time comes to sell off the property.

Eckerman explains that if the market begins to show signs of slowing down, it shouldnt be an indicator for investors to wait it out. Sure, mortgage rates may increase but its not necessarily a bad thing. Its important to keep in mind that with any investment, youre hedging against inflation. Purchasing and owning a property that rises with the fluctuating tide will ultimately protect your wealth, regardless, explains Eckerman.

5. Have a Reliable Network of Professionals: Eckerman explains the importance of taking the time to hire and maintain a solid lineup of real estate professionals. Hiring CPAs who know the tax options and benefits as well as attorneys, who have a firm understanding of the local real estate laws, can offer protection from any unforeseen legal and tax challenges that might arise. For those investors looking to rent out their investment, having a property manager will take away the stressful burden of being a landlord, explains Eckerman. In addition, Eckerman also recommends hiring reliable contractors to handle light and heavy maintenance. With a good group of professionals at your disposal, investors are creating a sophisticated network that will increase and sustain a savvy reputation, explains Eckerman.

Rick Otton Reveals Unprecedented Demand for Return of Property Investing Conference for 2014

Thursday, June 6th, 2013


London, England (PRWEB) May 28, 2013

Real estate millionaire, Rick Ottons recent successful UK property investment conference has, he has revealed, sparked a wave of interest from investors seeking information about his non-traditional strategies. So much so that an unprecedented early demand for a conference in 2014 is being recorded.

The enquiries come in the wake of Mr Ottons recent Zero-Debt Property Cashflow Conference, which shared techniques such as securing positive cashflow from a property portfolio from day one and building growth and cash flow.

For those who missed out on this years event, we have something very special planned, Mr Otton revealed.

Due to the groundswell of interest weve received during and following the recent real estate conference, were considering the merits of opening up early-bird bookings for our 2014 conference, so people can get in quickly and avoid disappointment.

Details will be released soon, but I must say right now how inspiring it is to see the overwhelmingly positive response to our strategies that show everyday people how to invest in property with no deposit.”

Creating financial freedom

Mr Otton is known in the UK as the creator of How to Buy a House for a Pound and for his alternative strategies which do not require investors or home owners to have access to a bank mortgage, equity from an existing property, stamp duty or a deposit to invest in property.

Ive coached tens of thousands of people over the past decade to create long-term wealth and financial freedom through cutting-edge investment strategies you can take away and use immediately to buy a house, Mr Otton said.

My system is easy to implement and shows strategies for property investing that weather the storm of economic fluctuations and interest range variables. The incredible thing is smart real estate strategists dont need any cash, credit or experience to succeed. They are able to build a path to financial security.

Mr Otton said using his 24-hour deal-closing system, many of his students had bought between 5 and 10 properties a year to create a wealth-creating property portfolio.

The real estate educator has personally bought more than 300 properties using little of his own cash.

One of the things that makes my conferences so unique is the huge amount of experience and ideas the attendees bring with them. As Ive already shared, many of the UKs leading property experts regularly attend my events, Mr Otton said.

Best Real Estate Investing Strategies for 2013 Published Online at TedThomas.com

Monday, January 14th, 2013


Seattle, Washington (PRWEB) January 07, 2013

Real estate is one investment area that usually performs well with each passing year. The value of property can increase each year that it is held by investors. A new best real estate investing strategies for 2013 guide has been authored by Ted Thomas and is now published online. This video guide is available here on the TedThomas.com website.

This guide is offered in video form and includes information about how beginning and experienced investors can use specific strategies to expand portfolios.

Some new and experienced investors select areas in real estate like foreclosures to help build personal wealth. The rise in foreclosures in many U.S. states has helped many people to purchase property and either hold or sell the property for a profit.

While this method works for many people, it is the initial investment required that can often prevent someone to get started with this type of strategy.

Part of the new information that is included in the 2013 guide includes ways to invest that do not require a large sum of money. One of the strategies discussed by Ted Thomas is how a simple $ 100 investment could build a guaranteed return of up to 36 percent. These small investments are one example offered in the video to introduce some of the new ways that properties can help expand investment opportunities.

Most people do not know that some investments in real estate are backed by the government, said Ted Thomas in his video series. Almost all U.S. states have opportunities for mortgage-free real estate investing, added Ted.

Over 30 books and DVDs have been authored by Ted and the majority are now online. The new website e-commerce store has been built to provide a resource for men and women that are searching for more alternative investment information. These books and other educational materials include updated information that is now found attending in-person seminars or other advanced workshops. These materials can be accessed online at http://tedthomas.com/products.
