We’ve talked about the terribly destructive effects of inflation before, but the National Inflation Association recently released a report chronicling what they expect to be prices for common items by the end of the decade. If ever there was a time to get your investments into assets which mitigate against the effects of the dollar’s devaluation, this is it.
You Already Have the Skills for a Million Dollar Business
By completing the Accredited Income Property Investment Specialist (AIPIS) course you have already guaranteed yourself that you possess the skills to create a million dollar business with real estate investing. The interesting part about the human brain is that translating knowledge into activity is an overwhelming process that the vast majority fail at. That’s why self help books and course have always held top positions on most non-fiction best seller lists.
Great Income Property Deal But Not Enough Cash? Jason Can Help.
Sometimes the income property investment of a lifetime falls directly into your lap through no effort of your own. Maybe a friend knows a friend who wants to bail out of a house in Indianapolis and flee for the sunny climate of Arizona. The situation can take many forms, but the important part is that when the deal of a lifetime comes along, you have to grit your teeth and say, “No thanks,” because there is absolutely no way you can come up with the sum amount of cash required for the down payment.
How To Sell Property While Looking Like You’re Not
As real estate professionals ourselves, obviously the topic of sales comes up in the office every now and then, an occasion which reminds us of how badly most of us in the business could use a refresher lesson on the basic idea that if you’re doing more talking than listening, the chances of a successful property close gets progressively more remote. You may have all the chops you think you need to sell property but that and three dollars will get you a frothy sweet coffee at Starbucks.
The Best Investment A Realtor Can Make
Forget the swanky corner office with a view to infinity, latest generation iPad or Blackberry, and even the customer list you stole from the boss; all these investments pale in comparison to an investment dedicated to improving the gray matter in your skull.

3 Secrets To Becoming A Realtor In Today’s Economic Morass
To steal a phrase from a famous book which rarely anyone reads any more, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times…” Are there any stalwart Dickens literary buffs out there who remember what follows?

As a career choice, selling real estate could absolutely qualify as one of the wisest decisions you make in your life but only if you understa
Real Estate Financing The AIPIS Way
We’ve nibbled around the edges of the topic in the past but let’s cut right to the chase. Why is long-term, fixed-rate real estate financing the AIPIS modus operandi when it comes to building wealth? Why do we preach it to AIPIS students and suggest you do the same to your real estate customers? The simple truth is that, assuming continued inflationary times, which seems a pretty safe assumption to make, there is not other method of investing that we know of designed to make you wealthy while the rest of the asset markets around the globe are shriveling into desiccated pieces of undervalued paper.
A Mortgage Education To Beat Inflation
We remember a line uttered by Patrick Swayze in his average movie Next of Kin. “You ain’t seen bad yet, but it’s coming.” Somehow, this shrimpish actor/dancer playing a tough Chicago cop made us believe that “bad” really was on the way.
