The Right First Steps

“Discover the first steps to putting you on track to build a property portfolio that will meet all your life goals”
 
“At Wholistic Financial Solutions we will help you determine what your goals are and then guide you in the achievement of your goals, whatever
they may be.”
 
How do we do this? Let’s go through 6 simple steps:

Step 1
 
First we help you develop the Right Strategy. Our first interview will involve delving into everything we need to know to determine your ‘what’, ‘why’ and ‘how’ factors and ensure that both parties fully understand your goals. This is not the end of the process however, but just the beginning. We will conduct regular reviews to ensure you are still on track to achieving your goals and re-orientate you if you have veered off the track. Our aim is to work with you on your strategy for the rest of your life.
 
We will use this consultation to meet with you and gather all the information we need to prepare a Property Portfolio Plan which puts your individual strategy into a full financing plan that takes into account the right structure for your finance, the tax implications, your short- and long-terms goals and the steps you need to take to get the process started. You’ll also get a chance to meet with us and determine whether you trust us enough to be your long-term property advisors.
 
Once we know your strategy we will help you find the Right Finance and the Right Structure for the finance.
 
Step 2
 
Wholistic Financial Solutions can put together a Property Portfolio Plan that takes your individual financial circumstances and goals into account and shows you your property portfolio potential.  How many properties you can buy, in what name you should buy the properties, how you should structure the finance, how to minimise tax and at the end of the day – how much it will cost you per day.

]]>

Step 3
 
Then we will help you find the Right Property:
 
Our consultants will meet with you after you have considered the ‘right strategy’  decided on the ‘right finance’ and sorted out the ‘right tax advice’. Once your ‘so that’ factor, and your goals and how best to achieve them is clear, our sales consultants will meet with you and help you decide what is the ‘right property’ for you! Everyone is special and has a different strategy, a different finance structure and a different tax situation. As everyone’s situation is unique, different properties meet different people’s needs. There are some many conflicting opinions on property investment it is very difficult for the average investor to sort between the ‘facts’ and the ‘sales talk’. As we have many different properties available from many different sources we are not biased towards any particular location, developer, type or property. We just want to help find the ‘right property’ for you.
 
We do not employ high-pressure sales people. In fact, all our sales people are trained in leading a horse to water but not forcing it to drink. We will convince you to buy a property WHEN YOU ARE READY TO BUY A PROPERTY and not anytime before. We want you so satisfied with our service that you will come back year after year for your future properties and will also tell all your friends and family about our service.
 
Step 4
 
Next we will help you find the Right Management:
 
“At Wholistic Financial Solutions, we have some of the most powerful property management solutions available. Guaranteed rental income every month for the term of your ownership of the property. Imagine never having to be concerned about short rental payments, no rental payments or your property sitting vacant costing you money! NEVER AGAIN!”
 
Under the Wholistic Financial Solutions banner we also have full use of a management facility. By listing your property in
the leaseback scheme provides you with a full property management team to look after your investment. They will look after your property guaranteeing you market rental income, full property inspections, professional tenant selection and all other property management criteria charged at the same fee rates as real estate property management divisions.
 
Step 5
 
Then we will help you reach your goals through the Right Coaching:
 
Our mentors and coaches will provide you with an alliance that will help you work through any blocks that may prevent you from meeting your goals in your bright new future. Do you need to stop your spending? Do you need to aim higher? Take more risk? Be more conservative? This is all well and good but do you know how to change your approach to achieve this? Find out what is holding you back, look at the obstacles and move right over them. It is time to get rid of the excuses, ignite your inspiration and build wealth and fulfillment in all areas of your life. With the right information and the right motivation you are the best investment you can ever make!

Our coaching strategy is ‘Wholistic’ – we will help coach your life including examining your money psychology, look at what might be holding you back, find solutions and design a bridge with you to get you there.

Step 6
 
Finally, follow all this up with the Right Information
 
It can be very lonely being a property investor. I often ask my clients, “Do you discuss your portfolio with your friends and family?” The overwhelming response is, “Absolutely not!” The reason for this is that people who don’t invest in property don’t understand it. And what people don’t understand they either fear, resent or reject. How many property investors have told their friends and family only to be asked, “You’re doing what? You’re an idiot!”
 
My answer to that is, “If you want to soar like an eagle – don’t hang with turkeys.” Or in kinder words, “Don’t discuss your dreams with those that don’t share similar dreams.”
 
To assist property investors stay on track we will be offering our clients:
 
* FREE weekly  educational webinars.
* FREE regular property investment educational seminars.
* FREE monthly newsletter updates outlining tax information, loan product specials, investment opportunities, plus much more.
* FREE invitations to affiliated property investment and motivational seminars.
* Regular social get-togethers to provide an opportunity for property investors to network and simply socialize with other like-minded investors.
 
“Our aim is to give you the right motivation, the right direction and the right focus. The financial side of the business provides the RIGHT INFORMATION and the coaches and mentors provide the RIGHT MOTIVATION.”
 
RIGHT INFORMATION + RIGHT MOTIVATION = all you need for SUCCESS.

Getting Started In Commercial Real Estate Investing

Author:  |  Category: Real Estate

 Commercial Real Estate Investing vs. Residential Real Estate

Is commercial real estate investing a better investment than investing in residential real estate? Now, we all know that real estate in general is a great investment vehicle and both residential and commercial properties can be good investments. Either avenue can have a tremendous effect on your net worth, but most people think only of residential property when they think about investing in real estate. While this is certainly the most viable route for most people, commercial property can offer additional benefits that residential real estate can’t.

3 Reasons Commercial Real Estate is better than Residential Real Estate

1.) Commercial Real Estate Gives You More Access to More Capital

        It has been my experience that it is somewhat easier to raise larger amounts of capital (under M) for a commercial deal than it is to raise 0,000 for a residential deal. As a residential investor your access to capital is limited primarily to traditional financing, hard money lenders, and private money from individual investors. If you are unable to raise capital from one of these three avenues, then you are forced to acquire property in more of a creative manner with owner financing, subject to strategies, lease options, etc. This in itself is not a bad thing, but unfortunately you will have to walk away from some good deals that can’t be acquired with creative financing techniques.

       In commercial real estate it is more common for investors to pool their capital together and syndicate deals, you will also find that smaller private equity firms and finance companies are more inclined to do joint venture projects and provide the needed capital to complete the deal if the deal makes sense. So as a commercial real estate investor you have the potential to raise capital for a deal from the same traditional sources as residential real estate i.e. Traditional Financing and Hard Money, but in addition to that you can have access to capital through smaller private equity firms, hedge funds, private REITs, investment groups, etc.

]]>

       There also seems to be a sense of intrigue and prestige when it comes to investing in commercial real estate. Perhaps because of the current commercial building market it appears investors are trending to investing in commercial projects.

2.) Commercial Real Estate is Less Competitive

       When you think about it from a marketing perspective, most investors target residential property owners, thus making the residential market more competitive. In many arenas from industry news sources, the World Wide Web, all the “We buy Houses” signs on virtually every city corner, discuss marketing tactics targeting residential property owners. If you take the same marketing strategies discussed and apply them to commercial real estate, you will probably find that you are the ONLY person contacting these commercial property owners in regards to selling their property. Most commercial properties under million tend to be too large for most residential investors, yet too small for most institutional investors.

3.) Commercial Real Estate allows for “Forced” Appreciation

      Residential real estate is typically valued based on other comparable properties that have sold in the area that are similar in features. If the “comps” for a 3 bedroom/2 bathroom house in a particular neighborhood is roughly 0,000, then your property is probably going to be worth 0,000. It doesn’t matter too much that you have additional features, or that your house is getting 0 a month in rent as opposed to the house down the street that is only renting for 0 a month. All things considered, your property will still be valued pretty close to the “comps” of the area.

       However, in commercial real estate, the valuation of a property is based on the revenue that the property generates. Now, commercial real estate is still subject to the “comps” of the area as it pertains to “How” that revenue is valued in terms of capitalization rates. But, the overall premise is that, the more revenue a property generated, the more that property is worth.

       So, in order to “force” the appreciation of your commercial property, you need to find additional ways to increase the revenue that the property generates. A small increase in revenue can increase the value of a property significantly depending on the “Cap Rates” in the area for that type of commercial real estate. Unfortunately, with residential real estate this isn’t an option as you really can’t force appreciation; your property will be valued in the general range of the market comps.

      As you can see, commercial real estate investing offers many benefits over residential real estate in addition to higher returns on your investment. Now of course there are disadvantages with any investment vehicle, commercial real estate included. However, consider the following when choosing between residential or commercial investing to create your passive income stream;

Commercial vs. Residential:My Thoughts on Commercial Real Estate Investing

1) The building qualifies for the loan; Not the borrower
2) The building pays back the loan; Not the borrower
3) Others are expected to manage the building; Not the borrower
4) Income determines the value of the property; Not the comps
5) Cap Rate measures demand for the property; Not the comps.

A commercial property’s value is eternally tied into the income the property produces and the overall demand for the property’s services based on its location & its highest & best use.

Flipping Properties And Foreclosure Investing

Author:  |  Category: House Flipping

As an investment strategy, flipping properties can be tremendously lucrative – but like any investment, there is a certain amount of risk involved.

How To Flip a House 101

Real Estate Investing ? How to Flip Houses for Quick Cash

Author:  |  Category: House Flipping

Have you seen the show flip this house? What they do is buy and property for pennies on the dollar, fix the property up and then resell the house and make 20 thousand or more. This is a great strategy if you have the money and don’t mind waiting around 3 months to get your property sold. I want to talk to you today about a strategy where you can make five thousand or more in less than 30 days and more importantly with less than 8 hours of work.

So what is the magical strategy? If you guessed wholesaling real estate than you are correct. Wholesaling houses is the best house flipping method around and the quickest method to produce cash in real estate investing. The best part is that you can do this with little or no money of your own.
So how do you wholesale or flip houses for quick cash?

1) Find a cheap house
With the current state of the economy and real estate market this is no shortage of motivated sellers out there. A seller can be motivated because of financial troubles, foreclosure, bad tenants, inherited an unwanted property, divorce and so on.

What I do is send all of these people a letter telling them how I can possibly help them. You can also find endless leads online with a nice fully optimized web site.

]]>

2) Negotiate and sign a contract
Because motivated sellers just want to sell fast and put their problems behind then, you really have lots of room to negotiate if there is equity in a deal.

Once you have negotiated a price, ran some numbers to make sure the property is a good deal you can put the property under contract. Contracts are very simple to fill out but can be confusing at first. Ask a local realtor to show you how to fill one out.

3) Find you Investor Buyer
When dealing with investors you want to work with cash buyers. Cash buyers are investors who can close on a wholesale deal with cash, and not have to go to the bank and get a loan. Closing on real estate with all cash makes the process run a lot smoother and goes quickly.

Where do you find cash buyers? Check your local real estate investors association, foreclosure auctions and networking events.

Believe me there and more cash buyers out there than you think, you just need to find them.

4) Assign you Contract
Once you have found a cash buyer you will want to assign your contract to this buyer. All you need to do is have an assignment form, fill out the form, put in your wholesale fee, and then sign it.

An assignment of contract simply assigns your right to buy the property to someone else and then you are not liable for the property.

5) Start your title work
Some people say that you should start the title work right when you put the house under contract but I like to have a buyer first, that way to can take the contract, assignment and everything to the title company together. And because you will not always find a buyer for every deal you will sometimes have to cancel your contract. If you have started title work you may have to pay for what they have done.

The title company will do everything that needs to be done from this point on, they will set up the closing and make sure the funds are in place.

6) Collect your Check
All you do now is sit back and wait for your check. Wholesaling real estate is not as hard as you thought. Sometimes you will want to check in with your buyer and seller to make sure everyone is happy.

What else should you know about flipping houses?

Flipping houses is not as hard as you would think; all it takes is a little bit of time to educate yourself and to market your business. Right now wholesaling real estate is the best house flipping strategy to use.

Property Investment Buying: Factors to Consider When Investing in Real Estate

Author:  |  Category: Investing

One of the things that held people back from making huge money in real estate is their fear. They are afraid of committing a huge mistake that will cause them to lose their hard-earned savings. If you’re one of those people who let their fear of property investment buying paralyze them, and then this article is just for you.

According to a recent survey, a real estate property remains one of the safest investments to make despite all the negative media report about the housing market. As long as you are using the right strategy and are using precautionary measures, you don’t have to fear losing your funds or run the risk of filing for bankruptcy.

If you want to ensure that you won’t commit a major blunder when investing in real estate, here are some factors that you should consider when buying investment properties:

The place where to invest in. According to real estate veterans, the city or county where your real estate investments are located can help determine the amount of profits that you are going to make. When buying an investment property, choose a city with a diverse economic base and lots of employment opportunities. The reason for this is that consumers will need sources of income in order to pay rent or buy a house. By choosing a place that can sustain the basic needs of your target “customers,” it would be easier for you to find buyers or tenants for your investment properties.
The type of investments. There are lots of properties to choose from when going a property investment buying spree. You can invest in vacant land, rental houses, apartment buildings, commercial properties, and mobile homes among others. Investing in each of these investment properties has its own advantages and disadvantages, which is why you need to carefully choose the one that suits your budget and your capabilities.
Availability of funds. Your budget is important when investing in real estate as it can determine the type of properties that you can buy. If you don’t have enough funds to buy a property you can always get a loan from banks and mortgage companies. There’s also hard money or private money lending for those who couldn’t qualify for traditional loans.

Currently boasting the 18th largest stock exchange in the world and a domestic economy that is growing at rates exceeding those of most developed countries, South africa is considered to be the Economic Powerhouse of the Africa Continent as well as an important emerging economy on the world stage.
 
Relative political and economic stability, acres of prime undeveloped land, good infrastructure, including air links to most major international cities and favourable exchange rates have all meant that South Africa has become an extremely attractive investment prospect, leading to something of a property boom in the last decade or so.

New residential and commercial developments continue to spring up across the country as internal demand for housing grows, along with rising interest in holiday accommodation and second homes from foreigners. Indeed, thanks to a rising black middle class with more disposable income, the growth rate within the housing and real estate sector continues to increase at a rate of approximately 13-16% per year in key urban areas, despite a rise in interest rates since the global economic downturn.

Foreign interest in South African real estate has been fuelled in recent years by the 2010 World Cup and a raft of financial incentives designed to encourage construction and property development. A number of areas have been regenerated, including Durban and Johannesburg city centre, which have led to multi-million dollar property investment projects in recent years.

A burgeoning tourism industry has also given many visitors to South africa a chance to see what the country has to offer in terms of lifestyle and value for money. For many, South Africa provides a way to substantially improve standards of living and get excellent returns when it comes to the size and location of South African property on offer. Many are also buying into the country’s relaxed outdoor lifestyle, sunny climate and proximity to stunning natural scenery and wildlife.

Compared to most other African countries, South Africa also has the benefit of excellent infrastructure and a business lingua franca that most people understand – English. Good schools, plenty of job opportunities for skilled migrants and a friendly, diverse population are other reasons why many foreigners are choosing to make South Africa their second home or even primary base.

Whether it is a lock-up-and-go seaside holiday apartment, a substantial family home in a leafy suburb, a wooden cabin on an eco-development or a luxury villa on an exclusive equestrian, riverside or golfing estate, South Africa has a range of properties and developments to entice even the most conservative of buyers.

In summary then, South Africa has a lot to offer the overseas or domestic property investor including prime locations near to many key locations such as tourist attractions and areas of outstanding natural beauty, a growing economy ripe for commercial development, a favourable exchange rate and excellent weather. Combined with political stability, tax breaks and good infrastructure, buying real estate in South Africa truly makes good business and lifestyle sense.
