Don't sell it by playing mind and word games tricking people into thinking that what you are saying makes sense.. when it does not.And Mr.

The closer you get to the 1% rule means you'll be buying an old, fixer upper, in the worst parts of town.The other real trick is finding 4plex. 

The trick is to not take things personal.

Totally agree with @Chris Seveney- people alwyas think there's some secret tax benefit or trick if they do things like this.

The problem with sites like Zillow and Realtor is that even if you take it off the market for 30 days and it shows as a new listing, buyers can see the price history from when you bought it to when you listed it and dropped the prices . . . that "trick" worked before the history was public so not sure that is the solution. 

I am hoping to build relationships with current investors, allowing me from to learn the tricks of the trade and strengthen my skills as a real estate agent along the way. 

Usually homes are under contract by the 2nd price reduction.Knowing this trick has been extremely valuable to me and my investors in 3 ways: (1) It has saved valuable time from submitting low ball offers that could never be considered. (2) It has provided leverage for many accepted deals that have been just a tiny bit overpriced, closely competed for, but all the other bids barely missed the percentage mark. (3) When the bidding period changes to a daily bid, I submit a bid as quickly as I can and if possible on the same day that the bidding period becomes a daily period.

If I had enough extra money after doing other stuff I'd rather do above cars, I'd love to have one of those 4 door jeep wranglers and trick it out to tool around in on the weekends.Nothing wrong with spending money on cars if that is what you are into.

When you apply for a home loan we only look at the monthly payment and on student loans we only hit you with .50% of the payment or in some cases if it is deferred for 12 months we can ignore it all together depending on the program you choose, for example; FHA, Fannie Mae, Portfolio etc.Another trick is if the installment loan on a car/vehicle only has (10) months of payments remaining or less we can "Omit" it all together.

Any tips, tricks or strategies you're implementing on your luxury STR vacation rental that has boosted ROI?
