Make Massive Profits With Wholesale Real Estate Investing

By Gary Z. Bryant

Deciding to invest in real estate can be one of the biggest decisions anyone makes in their lives. However by taking a little time to look into the benefits of wholesale real estate investing by sourcing low priced foreclosed homes, you can seriously increase the amount of profit your investment stands to make.

What Is Wholesale Real Estate?

Wholesale real estate is the term generally used for purchasing property at a price that is much lower than the actual market value. While there are several ways to accomplish this, perhaps the easiest is to source homes in foreclosure.

People who own homes in foreclosure realize they might be selling their home for less than its true value, but they are motivated to sell quickly in order to try and fix their financial problems. The reduced price is often their way of making sure they can find a buyer quickly who can help them with their needs.

Why Invest in Wholesale Real Estate?

Buying properties at bargain prices and then selling them to someone else at the real market value is just one way to profit from investing in real estate. Another excellent option to increase your investment returns could be sourcing a property at a really low price, which means your mortgage costs will be low.

This also translates to lower monthly repayments which can allow your rental income to cover the entire cost of your investment. Effectively you have the chance to own an investment property that someone else is paying for each month.

Is It Hard To Find Wholesale Real Estate?

A wise investor will always take the time to work through all the figures surrounding the purchase. Finding a home in foreclosure doesn't automatically mean it's going to be cheap. Some owners may have owed far more money on their mortgage than the home is worth. The same rule applies for really cheap homes that may require huge amounts of repairs and maintenance.

Of course, once you find a property that you want to buy you may have found that it's already going to court auction and you've missed the pre-foreclosure window. Buying at auction could potentially see other people bidding against you which can increase the price higher than you wanted to pay.

Should I Buy More Than One Foreclosed Home?

Rather than just dive into the deep end with your investments and hope for the best, take some time to learn how to structure your investments properly from the experts. While its possible to make huge profits from investing in wholesale property, its also equally possible to lose plenty of money too if you havent learned as much as possible about protecting your investments and buying wisely.

For anyone who wants to turn a few wholesale investments into a serious way to build wealth, then enroll in a professional real estate investing course. Learning how to find the most profitable deals can mean the difference between losing money and creating an investment portfolio that will see you build wealth safely and steadily even in bad markets.

So if you're serious about turning some investment choices into a real wealth creation vehicle, then enroll in a real estate investing course now and take advantage of the opportunities that are all around you right now - 23221

Three Myths of Stock Trading

By W. Alan Gay

I've been a Stock Trader for over 15 years, and know the business inside and out. I didn't start at a fancy brokerage firm with sophisticated training courses. Instead, I made my success my own way, failing here, tweaking there, using seminars and self taught classes to learn what I needed as I went.

While I may have taken longer to succeed using this self taught method, it has given me a lot more real world knowledge of stock trading than I would have gotten following the one process taught by my employer. For one, I have found a number of myths that crop up again and again when talking to people about stock trading. Here are three of them:

First, is the misunderstanding that you have to be a certain type of person to be a successful stock trader. True, the guys who analyze the market and pick the big winners are almost 60% left brained thinkers, and this is probably how the myth started.

But I have found that trading stock has something in it for every type of thinker, and the trick is to find the process that works best for you. Frankly, I would hate to sit around and analyze stocks all day, but I have made a great living trading stocks anyway. Anyone else can too.

Second, is the belief that stock trading is speculative, and carries as much or more risk as owning your own business. Yes, people have lost everything in the stock market, and those are the stories the media loves to report on that intimidate a lot of people.

But I have learned that it is a matter of setting up the right process to place your stops and limiting your risks to a level that you are comfortable with. If you can do that, stock trading is really a very low risk profession. For example, I have worked out a process that results in a 75% or more success rate with my trades. That is hard to beat, and you would be hard pressed to find another business that can give you that kind of low risk situation.

Finally, how many times have you heard that its a full time job to make consistent big money in the stock market? Absolutely true for some kinds of trading and especially if you don't have good stock pickers to rely on. Then you are stuck doing the grunt and the leg work in a fast changing environment " sure that takes a lot of time.

But, I am living proof that it is absolutely possible to make a great living trading stock for 2-4 hours a day, which will leave you the rest of your day for whatever you wish. The way to achieve this is to have a process in place that is efficient with your time, and low risk enough that you can be profitable on a consistent basis. There are a lot of different courses available and it can be difficult to find the one that will work for you. I suggest you investigate several different choices and, ask lots of questions Use your questions as an additional screening " if you can't find anyone to take them all seriously, move on quick! Life is too short. If you start your research knowing the right system is there for you, you will be on your way to becoming a successful stock trader in no time. - 23221

Anyone can do it with the right information which is readily available to anyone who is interested in learning the forex market.

One of the primary ways investors go about learning how to trade currencies is through online course and mentoring programs. The problem with that route is the tremendous amount of up front cost associated with it.

It would make more sense to wait to use that money to learn advanced techniques once you know the basics and are sure you want to continue down that path.

Of course the fastest way to learn anything is to dive right into the deep end. There are plenty of brokers willing to set you up with a practice account that you can use play money with to get started.

Also, don't worry if you are using the right technique or the wrong technique, the key is to develop yourself as a trader.

There are a lot of people that think you can make money right when they begin to use forex trading. However, many of these people soon find out that this is not the case when you start trading on your own. It take a lot of time, possibly months or years, before you can get good enough to use real money.

However, if you have a pressing need to make money right out of the gate, let me suggest using an automated forex advisor.

These programs rigidly trade the market without the emotion that you will likely be bringing to the table. Because of that they will have much more level returns.

Making Money by Online Stock Trading

By Owen Jones

The invention of the Internet has brought about many changes in the way we conduct our lives and our own business. We can pay our bills online, go shopping online, do our banking online, and even make a date online!

We can even participate in online stock trading. Online stock investors love having the ability to follow their investment accounts whenever they want to, and online stock brokers love having the capability to take orders over the Internet, as opposed to using the telephone.

The majority of stock brokers and brokerage houses now provide online stock trading to their clients. Another great thing about online stock trading is that fees and commissions are usually lower. While online stock trading is good news, there are some negative aspects too.

So, if you are brand new to trading, having the ability to actually speak with a stock broker can be quite beneficial, if you aren't stock market conscious, online stock trading may be a rather dangerous thing for you to do, although advice from a stock market trader is expensive. If this is the situation, make sure that you learn as much as you can about trading stocks before you start online stock trading.

You ought also to remember that not everyone has a computer with Internet access with them, although many mobile phones can get online, so you might not always have the ability to go online to make a trade. You will need to be sure that you can call and speak with a broker if you use an online stock broker. This is the case whether you are an experienced|advanced stock market trader or a novice.

It is also important to sign up with an online stock brokerage firm that has been around for a while. You won't find one that has been in online business for 30-50 years of course, but you can find a company that has been in business that long and that now offers online stock trading.

Again, online stock trading is a fantastic thing - but be sure that it isn't for everyone. Think carefully before you decide to opt for online stock trading, and make sure that you really know what you are doing! - 23221

Mutual Funds vs ETF's

By Peggy Black

Why buy mutual funds when you can be owning an Exchange Traded Fund (ETF)? Mutual funds have limited liquidity in that you can only buy and sell mutual funds at the end of the day. Plus exorbitant fees charged investors average 1.5%.

Mutual funds are only required to declare their investment holding twice a year. Investors in funds are in the blind and not sure what they own until it is disclosed.

The first ETF's was the S&P Depository Receipt known as SPDR (exchange symbol SPY). It was basically a stock that owned all 500 companies that make up the S&P 500 Index. So with one trade you could own the whole S&P 500 index.

ETF's stay very close to their inherent net asset value. If values drift too far, professional arbitrage traders will soon bring values into line. It is entirely self-policed by these mechanics.

Just like a stock, one can place loss protection in the form of stop-loss and limit order. You are able to see quotes on a real-time basis.

The management fees for EFTs dwarf those of mutual funds. SPY, for instance, SPY has an annualized net expense of 0.09 percent.

Best of all, ETFs are transparent and you always know what you are getting. You'll know exactly what the market index is composed of. There is now wondering if your ETF owns something that you did not know about.

If there is a choice between mutual funds or ETFs, one should be aware of fund management past history and direction. How do they do in a bear market? How do they perform in a bull market? Do the beat the ETF for the same investment area? - 23221
