Please understand that Brian Gibbons is the real deal!I have had "Coaches" in real estate in the past. They were all a joke, expensive, and I didn't learn much from any of them. So, when I met Brian, I was very skeptical initially. That skepticism didn't last past the first few minutes of knowing him.

Brian is unique because he is a real person and he takes the time to know you as an individual first. He doesn't need or expect you to fit in a box.

Brian has taught me so many things about real estate. He's also taught me about business, he's spotlighted fundamentals and drilled them with me until I knew them. Rarely are these fundamentals highlighted when you search around about creative real estate investing. Think of a team sport, where you are taught the fundamentals, and then you practice them. Then you're ready for the game.

My experience had been the reverse of that until I got with Brian. Prior to working with Brian, I was going out there trying to do deals without even knowing I lacked in so many of the fundamentals that are critical for success.

Additionally, Brian is doing what so many "coaches" fail to do, and that is he wants you to succeed and move on. He wants you to evolve and grow both personally and in a business sense. There's no BS up-sell, or "next level" or "platinum" package that needs to be bought.

There is however; a need for you to get out of your comfort zone and go do deals, help people along the way, make some money and build a business…

If you are serious about going to the next level, and having a true mentor, or champion in your life contact Brian.

He changed my life. If you let him, he'll change yours.

Thank you Brian!

I am a member at Bigger Pockets and every time I had a question about Lease-to-Purchase Options, either Brian had the answer or someone pointed me towards him for advice. I went to Brian's website and found out that I could schedule a 30 minute to 1 hour conversation with him. I of course chose the latter of the two and to my surprise; he was calling my phone a few minutes later. We ended up talking for 2 and ½ hours.

In seeking advice on Lease Options, I started talking about a wholesale deal that recently fell through because of pricing difficulties. Brian pointed me in a new direction that would allow me to contact the seller again. This new approach could possibly make me between $45K to $65K on that same deal, rather than the $5K I would have or not have made! That part of the conversation took about 10 minutes, which will probably be the most lucrative 10 minute conversation I have ever had!

Brian explained four other avenues that I can offer my clients that I was not aware of. These new avenues will allow me to contact old leads that I could not have originally helped. I can now present new options to these clients and rekindle a lead that I thought I originally could not help. Instead of only offering my absentee leads a wholesale cash offer or a lease-to- purchase, I can now offer them multiple avenues that will best fit their needs. I can't tell you how awesome if feels to know that I can help more people than I ever thought I could.

I have a lot to learn but I am very excited about the endless opportunities that are waiting to be found. I look forward to working with Brian in the very near future.

"Brian helped me learn about private money and retirement plans. I am now contacting Accountants and Financial Planners. After listening to my presentation, these advisors help their clients even more with their retirement plans.

I now have cash for my real estate deals and avoid banks, My private money lenders get a 10% rate of return…

And they get a first mortgage for security!

Thanks, Brian, you're a great coach!"

"Brian, I would have been dead in the water without you. The banks all said "No" for more bank financing. I had deals I had to pass on. With you connecting me to Private Money Lenders, I have over $100,000 cash to work with, and you are even teaching me how to write deals with Seller carrying all their equity! I just need a small amount to rehab the properties and resell for a profit, without banks!"

With much appreciation,

"We love Brian Gibbons and his team! He found us a real estate investor to pay us 10% on our money…One investment gave us the return in 3 month and another gave it in 12 months. I can't remember the last time my stocks paid me that amount in that short of a time!

The money goes into our retirement account that has been approved by the IRS. We've had enough of stockbrokers but we sure can't get enough of PRIVATE MONEY LENDING! We can't lose because we have a private first mortgage for security!

Thanks, Brian, and we are sending you our family members!"

"Brian helped me a lot. I lost a lot of money in the stock market. But I wanted a 10% rate of return. He put me in touch with a builder that used my retirement money and is paying me 10% right into my retirement account. And if this builder does not pay me, I can foreclose and get the property!!

I sure can't get that kind of security or do that with my mutual funds!

Brian, you saved my retirement dreams from collapsing! I have several people I am going to send you ASAP!"

My name is John Jackson, and I would like to talk about:

my success in creative real estate,

how I got started, and

how Brian Gibbons was directly involved with me realizing the financial freedom I enjoy today.

Some background.

I had quit my job to be a stay at home dad with my little girl. I taught myself to daytrade in stocks (shares) over a one year period. Trying to change diapers (nappies) and learn to daytrade at the same time was not very easy!

By the time I had honed my skills, my account had run low due to the fact that I had to live and pay my bills from my trading account. I then became a father again, and needed more income. I had always known that there was money in real estate, and had an interest in learning how best to tap that potential. I gathered as much information as I could, and was looking at buying properties to flip (buy and sell quickly).

The problem was the risk to reward ratio.

I learned quite a bit from day trading, and one of the most important things, was risk to reward. You don't want to make a trade where you are risking $3 to make $1.

You will lose quickly if you do that! I liked the reward of flipping, but for a beginner with little capital, the risk was way too high. It was the equivalent of taking someone with little stock market experience and having them trade commodities (huge risk!)

This is where Brian stepped in. I met him through an internet site where he was discussing "controlling properties, not owning them." He called it "Cooperative Assignment."

I was able to obtain a tremendous amount of information and knowledge from Brian on lease purchasing or "rent to own consulting."

I studied everything I received from Brian and I realized the risk to reward ratio for lease purchasing was incredible! Almost no risk, and a nice reward.

This was what I was looking for. I began envisioning a complete picture of how best to utilize lease purchasing to build a company and comfortable income.

I spent many long weeks and even months putting together a website, company, and game plan (see www.leasingtobuy.com)

I am now the President and founder of Leasing To Buy, LLC. It is probably the largest residential lease purchasing company in North Texas, USA.

We help people:

* sell there homes for top dollar, at no cost to them, and

* we help people who don't think they can qualify for a mortgage, get into the house of their dreams.

It is a wonderful business to be in.

We have only been actively in business for about 5 months, (Sept 2003) but have already completed several lease purchase deals.

Below are some actual deals and numbers.

Western Meadows Dr. Owner was asking $149,000 We got them $159,000 We found a tenant/buyer in 8 days We received an assignment fee of $3,500

Stetson Dr. Owner was asking $150,000 We got them $159,000 We found a tenant/buyer in 23 days We received an assignment fee of $3000

Whetstone Rd. Owner was asking $169,000 We got them $180,000 We found a buyer in 14 days. We received an assignment fee of $4,500

Blende St. Owner was asking $74,000 We got them $83,000 We found a tenant/buyer in 8 hours. We received and assignment fee of $2000

Although it is nice to have the income to pay off debt and bills, it is even more gratifying to realize how much we are helping people. They are so grateful for us and our services. It is more rewarding than the money. It's hard to believe how far this has gone since I originally spoke with Brian.

He was instrumental in the foundation and education of what we are doing.

I finally have a business that is not only successful and helping people, but I can literally pack up and move, and start the same business anywhere I want to.

Again, thanks to Brian at www.REISkillsCoach.com I have dignified income, knowledge of the best real estate investing technique (Cooperative Assignment), and automatic marketing with referrals.

Most importantly, a win-win-win business:

Owner wins, Tenant-Buyer wins, and I make $100 - $250 a hour to do it for them!

Sincerely,

John Jackson

Richland Hills, TX

Understand your taxation if you sell.

Look at 1031 exchanges.

If you refinanced your cash flow will be small, but the cash you receive is tax deferred until you sell

Hi Rich

To decipher the problem you are having, I would need to talk with you and role play, me being the prospective seller.

How you sound (tonality) is as important as what you say (content).

And what you say is really important!

Building Rapport - The First Thing You Do in Negotiating or Sales

Think of F O R M

F is family

O is Occupation

R is Recreation

M is the message.

If you always ask good questions and encourage people to talk about what is important to them, then they will LIKE YOU faster and TRUST YOU faster.

Men tend to like outside subjects like what they for income, sports teams, politics, etc.

Women, especially moms like to talk about houses, kids and saving money.

Best of luck to all of you learning to build rapport!

It really is a key to getting motivated sellers to want to listen to your creative offers!

Thanks Dev, you are too kind.

If you live in Ohio, learn about land contracts. OH LCs have a unique law re repossession under default for non payment. The Seller can repossess without a formal foreclosure if there is less than 60 payments and under 20% down payment plus monthly payments (total equity)

IDEA - buy on Land Contract and rent out or lease option.

Here is the statute..

Chapter 5313: LAND INSTALLMENT CONTRACTS

5313.01 Land installment contract definitions.

As used in Chapter 5313. of the Revised Code:

5313.02 Required provisions of land installment contracts.

5301.25 of the Revised Code and a copy of the contract to be delivered to the county auditor.

5313.03 Biannual statements furnished to vendee.

Every vendor under a land installment contract shall, at least once a year, or on demand of the vendee, but no more than twice a year, furnish a statement to the vendee showing the following:

5313.04 Vendee to enforce chapter provisions.

Upon the failure of any vendor to comply with Chapter 5313. of the Revised Code, the vendee may enforce such provisions in a municipal court, county court, or court of common pleas. Upon the determination of the court that the vendor has failed to comply with these provisions, the court shall grant appropriate relief.

Effective Date: 11-25-1969 .

5313.05 Default of vendee.

When the vendee of a land installment contract defaults in payment, forfeiture of the interest of the vendee under the contract may be enforced only after the expiration of thirty days from the date of the default. A vendee in default may, prior to the expiration of the thirty-day period, avoid the forfeiture of his interest under the contract by making all payments currently due under the contract and by paying any fees or charges for which he is liable under the contract. If such payments are made within the thirty-day period, forfeiture of the interest of the vendee shall not be enforced.

Effective Date: 11-25-1969 .

5313.06 Notice of forfeiture.

Following expiration of the period of time provided in section 5313.05 of the Revised Code, forfeiture of the interest of a vendee in default under a land installment contract shall be initiated by the vendor or by his successor in interest, by serving or causing to be served on the vendee or his successor in interest, if known to the vendor or his successor in interest, a written notice which:

5313.07 Proceeding for foreclosure and judicial sale.

If the vendee of a land installment contract has paid in accordance with the terms of the contract for a period of five years or more from the date of the first payment or has paid toward the purchase price a total sum equal to or in excess of twenty per cent thereof, the vendor may recover possession of his property only by use of a proceeding for foreclosure and judicial sale of the foreclosed property as provided in section 2323.07 of the Revised Code. Such action may be commenced after expiration of the period of time prescribed by sections 5313.05 and 5313.06 of the Revised Code. In such an action, as between the vendor and vendee, the vendor shall be entitled to proceeds of the sale up to and including the unpaid balance due on the land installment contract.

Chapter 5313: of the Revised Code does not prevent the vendor or vendee of a land installment contract from commencing a quiet title action to establish the validity of his claim to the property conveyed under a land installment contract nor from bringing an action for unpaid installments.

Chapter 5313: of the Revised Code does not prevent the vendor and vendee from cancelling their interest in a land installment contract under section 5301.331 of the Revised Code.

Effective Date: 11-25-1969 .

5313.08 Action for forfeiture and restitution.

If the contract has been in effect for less than five years, in addition to any other remedies provided by law and after the expiration of the periods prescribed by sections 5313.05 and 5313.06 of the Revised Code, if the vendee is still in default of any payment the vendor may bring an action for forfeiture of the vendee's rights in the land installment contract and for restitution of his property under Chapter 1923. of the Revised Code. When bringing the action under Chapter 1923. of the Revised Code, the vendor complies with the notice requirement of division (A) of section 1923.04 of the Revised Code by serving notice pursuant to section 5313.06 of the Revised Code. The court may also grant any other claim arising out of the contract.

Effective Date: 10-06-1980 .

5313.09 Instrument of cancellation of land contract.

A judgment for the vendor shall operate to cancel the land installment contract as of a date to be specified by the court. The clerk of the county or municipal court in which such judgment is rendered shall transmit an authenticated copy of such dated judgment to the county recorder of the county in which the property is located.

The county recorder of such county shall record such authenticated judgment as an instrument of cancellation under section 5301.331 of the Revised Code.

Effective Date: 11-25-1969 .

5313.10 Terminating land installment contract is exclusive remedy.

The election of the vendor to terminate the land installment contract by an action under section 5313.07 or 5313.08 of the Revised Code is an exclusive remedy which bars further action on the contract unless the vendee has paid an amount less than the fair rental value plus deterioration or destruction of the property occasioned by the vendee's use. In such case the vendor may recover the difference between the amount paid by the vendee on the contract and the fair rental value of the property plus an amount for the deterioration or destruction of the property occasioned by the vendee's use.

Effective Date: 11-25-1969 .

Its hard to learn a creative financing subject.

I have over 30 years experience and I have developed a class to quickly learn lease options when talking to a seller.

You can also own a property and sell on lease option.

You can not own it and assign the contract with a seller to earn a fee of 3%. I call this lease option assignment. Some call it cooperative assignment or wholesaling lease options.

You can stay also in the deal (sandwich) and collect 3 spreads:

1, option money,

2, difference in rents,

3, final exercise price.

See the free video on

http://reiskillscoach.com/classes/classes-lease-op...

``````````````````````````````````````````````

To sign up for the class, for 1 hour with me, the fee is $100.00.

I look forward to having you as a lease option student!

Best wishes,

Brian
