thanks! I signed up yesterday for the local REI club's meetings. There are so many of these around my area, i am thinking of doing a 3 city meeting rotation, so i can get as much information on what investors are looking for. I don't truly know what parts of deals spark interest, so i bet that would share some insight on how the investor's brain works. Has anyone tried these "Web seminars" i have been seen floating around. I am sure some are beneficial, but has anyone had first hand exp. with them. I just wanted to know how useful they are, or can be.

Thank again,

Tell me about it! The last thing anyone needs is a deal to go that sour. I mean its a bad market, and you gamble with depreciation, but never that. It makes one think before making a hasty offer on a "too good to be true' offer.

I do appreciate the insight. Thanks for the article, it provided me some insight on the potential downfalls.I thank you and will watch out for any potential situations like this, which i bet are plentiful. I am glad these developers are very trusted and since its a CondoHotel there is on-sight property managment at all times, and no sign of the Resort going under. I, however, don't understand completly how to market this program and if anyone with any input could share some insight i would love any help!

Compound interest is the greatest power known to man! Wheatie is so dead on right on this! If not the original poster , I greatly appreciate your insight on the subject, and i am looking forward to reading more!

No one said anything about the money that you could be deducting as a loss.. The depreciation deductions is what makes a non-paid off property your "tax shelter". There are ways to keep a morgage(deducting intrest and property taxes from income taxes) and keeping the property a positive cash flow. A paid off propery has its advantages, but deductions are minimal.

Hello forum,

My company recently recieved a contract with a devoloper of a 4 star Condo-Hotel projectin Orlando,FL. The buyer incentives include a 2-year "Master Lease" (lease-back) program, that guarentee's 2 years of mortage payments (up to 10% total purchase price per year),2 years HOA,2 years Property taxes, and covers closing costs(up to 1% of purchace price)and a Fly and Buy program, that covers travleing, board, and some food costs when veiwing the property.

My actual questions were:

Have any Agents/Brokers have had success with a program similar or the same?

What are possible ways to market these great incentives to buyers?

and

What are good ways to expose people to the benifits of this program to investors?

I appreciate your input, and am looking forward to any insight!

Thanks,

Thanks for your input Joshua!

I actually am REALLY new to the Real Estate Business. I don't even know where to start. The Company I work for RC Legacy INC. is a Mortgage Broker licensed by the California Department of Real Estate. We have relationships with major banks and lending institutions such as World Savings, Indymac Bank, Countrywide Home Loans and others. Me personally, I have absolutly no exp. and am 100% focused on learning as much as I can. I am looking for as many investors willing to just look at the deals we offer as we just picked up a wonderful Orlando, FL project with wonderful buyer incentives. The problem is getting generated intrest. I don't know how to speak to investors, or how to present them the material i have. I obviously don't want to SPAM, but I believe that as many people as possible needs to at least see what we can offer them, because they are GREAT offers for investors and homeowners.

thanks again for listening

Hello forum,
I was just wondering new and great (not necessarily free) ways to mass market promotions my Brokerage deals with. Most in my office are fairly new to computer marketing, so I wanted to me the first to share with them as many marketing ideas as I can. Any insight on my inquiry would be greatly appreciated.

Thank You
