John Schaub's Real Estate Strategies and Solutions

"The time has never been better for investing in houses. Low interest rates allow you to buy and have immediate cash flow and inflationary pressures are driving up prices".

But the rules for making money and keeping it have changed! Today you must know how to buy, sell, and manage, plus how to protect yourself from ruinous lawsuits and the ravages of high taxes.

Being a good buyer and manager are still critical to your success. But, buying the wrong property or holding title in the wrong entity may expose you to expensive lawsuits and unnecessary taxes. Don't put years of hard work at risk by using the wrong strategy. It's just as easy to do it the right way.

When I started buying, selling, and investing in real estate in the early 70's I thought only about making profits. I focused on creating cash flow and buying properties that would appreciate. I taught the first seminar on investing in houses, Making It Big On Little Deals, in 1975. Thousands of investors from all fifty states are successfully using my strategies for buying and managing single family houses. I still teach this class and each year I add the latest strategies and techniques.

I am still an active buyer and hands on manager. I continue to study and look for better ways to make money. As I discover new and better ways, I write about them in my newsletter and teach students in my seminar and through my home study courses.

Today you need to know much more to succeed. The good news is that the information you need is available and you can master it.

Here are some strategies you can use, that I recommend today!

• Invest only in quality houses, in strong neighborhoods, that attract long term, good paying tenants that maintain your properties. Avoid low end rentals that attract high maintenance tenants.
• Use a management system that delegates responsibility to your tenants and frees your time to enjoy life and make more money
• Develop a business strategy to produce cash flow to live on while your investment properties appreciate and their cash flow increases
• Only buy investment properties that make you a profit every day you own them
• Learn how to borrow from non-banking sources to reduce your interest expenses and liability
• Develop a business/investment strategy that allows you to minimize your taxes
• Hold title in entities that discourage nuisance lawsuits and protect your assets
• Avoid the temptation of big deals with their bigger problems and bigger risks
• Have a long term exit strategy that guarantees enough cash flow and minimizes taxes
