Thursday
June 19, 2008
Speaker:
Author,
investor, educator,
Michael Morrongiello
TOPIC:
"Paper"
into Cash - The Convertible Currency
How
to Manufacture Your Own Financing
Don't
just survive the credit crunch - THRIVE during changing
market cycles!
Discover
how to effectively create marketable real estate-secured
Notes that can be easily and readily converted into
a cash lump sum. With the real estate markets softening,
Wall Street no longer buying certain loans, and
qualifying criteria becoming more stringent - with
the right knowledge, you can fill the void in the
marketplace by offering seller financing for both
the acquisition and disposition of properties.
What
is Seller Carryback financing?
When
a property seller assists the buyer by acting as
the lender, the property seller may finance part
or all of the sale. The term given to such seller
financing is "carryback financing." A
seller is literally carrying back part or all of
the financing on the property instead of a financial
institution.
In today's tight credit Market; Seller carryback
financing is vital to a successful sales program.
It is so important that if more property sellers,
their agents, buyers, and Real Estate Investors
understood the principles of seller carryback financing,
more real estate activity would be generated across
the country than with any other marketing tool!
A
Few Advantages of Seller Carryback Financing:
It
makes a listing more salable.
It
provides the seller with an interest return (yield)
on their note that exceeds savings accounts, CD's
and money market accounts.
The
seller carryback note(s) can be an extremely safe
investment.
The
seller carryback note(s) can be made salable, should
the holder need cash in the future.
At
this Meeting you will learn About;
-
Understanding
"Paper" - WHY use seller financing
to buy or sell
-
Different
types of security instruments which can be used
-
Relationship
between PRICE vs. TERMS
-
Wrap's
-- Your Multi Purpose Financing Tool
-
Magnifying
yield & capturing amortization
-
Deal
Structuring tips, tricks, and techniques
-
Using
other collateral
-
The
some NOW, some LATER concept
-
Generating
solutions and how to profit with "paper"
*
The type of notes preferred by "paper"
investors or note buyers. Owner-occupied homes are
the most desirable. History has proven them the
most stable. Notes secured by land usually have
the greatest risk.
*
Real estate values fluctuate both up and down over
time, even in good areas. Why a note holder's best
protection against loss is protective equity
established at the time he acquires a note. An owner
with a substantial equity who is paying on a note
will be motivated to protect his/her equity position.
Some
Terms & Concepts to become familiar with:
Your
Financial Calculator:
TIME:
Expressed in months or years (Calculator symbol
= N)
INTEREST:
The rate of interest or yield desired usually expressed
per month or per year (Calculator symbol = I). The
annual interest rate must be divided by the number
of payments that the note requires during the year.
Monthly + by 12, Quarterly + by 4, semi-annually
+ by 2, etc.
PRESENT
VALUE: The dollar value today of dollars to
be received in the future. (PV is the symbol.)
PAYMENT:
The amount of money paid periodically on the note.
In the above example, payment includes principal
and interest. (Payment is the PMT symbol on a financial
calculator.)
FUTURE
VALUE: As a seller carried back of a note to
be fully amortized over 10 years, the future value
(FV on the financial calculator) would be zero.
However, suppose a note has a future balloon payment
due before it fully amortizes. If you are solving
for PV, you must first calculate the amount of the
balloon or the Future Value (FV) before you can
calculate or solve for the discounted PV value.
More
Terms
PROTECTIVE
EQUITY: Is the current market value of the property
less the total debt on the property. It is the sellers'
or lenders' cushion against possible loss. The larger
the protective equity, the more protection for the
lender. Note: Having substantial protective equity
is the best way to take back a mortgage without
being taken.
LOAN-TO-VALUE
(LTV) ratio is the amount of debt on
a property expressed as a percentage of the Fair
Market Value (FMV) of the property. Example: A property
valued at $100,000 has a first loan of $50,000 and
a second loan of $20,000. The $70,000 total debt
divided by the $100,000 Fair Market Value (FMV)
= 70% LTV. The lower the loan-to-value ratio, the
more equity an owner has. For example, with only
$50,000 debt, the same property would have a LTV
ratio of 50%.

way to successful investing. He is still an active buyer

what he has done and what has worked and sometimes not
worked for him. John spends nearly all of his working
time making deals and managing his properties. He teaches
only three seminars a year.
He
stresses buying better, well located houses as opposed
to less expensive houses or other income properties.
Better houses are much more profitable and far less
trouble. He advocates paying off debt, owning properties
free and clear and maximizing cash flow by only buying
properties with larger profit potential, financed so
they produce immediate cash flow.

The
Campbell Method: A Proven Timing System that Tells You

Profits!
&
The Mortgage Meltdown Freeze = Fraud
Part
1 San Mateo, CA Attorney, freelance writer;
Sean Olender
MORTGAGE MELTDOWN
Interest rate 'freeze' - the real story is fraud
Bankers pay lip service to families while scurrying
to avert suits, prison
Excerpt:
unfortunately, the "freeze" is just
another fraud - and like the other bailout proposals,
it has nothing to do with U.S. house prices, with "working
families," keeping people in their homes or any
of that nonsense.
The
sole goal of the freeze is to prevent owners of mortgage-backed
securities, many of them foreigners, from suing U.S.
banks and forcing them to buy back worthless mortgage
securities at face value - right now almost 10 times
their market worth.
The
ticking time bomb in the U.S. banking system is not
resetting subprime mortgage rates. The real problem
is the contractual ability of investors in mortgage
bonds to require banks to buy back the loans at face
value if there was fraud in the origination process.
And,
to be sure, fraud is everywhere. It's in the loan application
documents, and it's in the appraisals. There are e-mails
and memos floating around showing that many people in
banks, investment banks and appraisal companies - all
the way up to senior management - knew about it.

Dear
Real Estate Investor:
Imagine for a moment how you would feel if you could
predict major turning points in the real estate market.
Suppose somebody handed you a 21-year time-tested
system that would tell you ahead of time when property
values were going to hit a peak
and then when
prices were going to hit bottom years later.
If you could anticipate these kinds of critical real
estate events in advance
then not only could
you make spectacular profits, but you could protect
your money as well.
Sounds pretty amazing, doesn't it?
Actually, it's not. The real estate market does
signal its future intentions if you know where to look.
Hello. My name is Robert Campbell and I wrote Timing
the Real Estate Market to help both professionals
and ordinary people make the most money in real estate
with the least amount of risk. Based on a major breakthrough
in tracking and predicting real estate trends, my book
reveals the real estate timing technique that I call
The Campbell Method.
As
far as I know, The Campbell Method is the only
proven method in the world that shows how to accurately
anticipate upcoming changes in your local real estate
market.
What
this means is that when you read Timing the Real
Estate Market, you are going to learn how to make
and protect your fortune in real estate
in the same way that J. Paul Getty, the Rockefellers,
Warren Buffett, and other super-rich investors made
their fortunes: by focusing on WHEN to buy and sell.
Its
true. When it comes to making money in real estate,
nothing beats good timing.
The
reason that The Campbell Method is going to change
the way you think about how to buy and sell real estate
is that I share my truly remarkable discovery of five
key real estate indicators. I call them Vital
Signs," and they're able to predict the peaks and
valleys of real estate cycles with an almost uncanny
accuracy. As leading indicators to whats
looming on the horizon for real estate prices, these
Vital Sign indicators act like windows into the future,
giving you advance notice of approaching
trend changes from three to six months before they become
obvious to the general public.
Author's Note: Timing the Real Estate Market
is used at the University of San Diego by Professor
Elaine Worzala. The class: Real Estate Investment. "The
logic behind these Vital Sign indicators is air-tight,"
says Professor Worzala. "I'm very impressed, and
my students love your book."
Copies
of Timing the Real Estate Market will be available for
purchase and autograph by Robert Campbell at the meeting.

About
Dwan Bent Twyford
Dwan
Bent-Twyford, the Queen of Foreclosures, is a distinguished
author, motivating national speaker, and incredible teacher.
She has published a home study course, Financial Freedom
Through Foreclosures, that will teach you every aspect
of the exciting foreclosure world
.in detail! In a world
dominated by men, this amazing woman has certainly made her
mark wholesaling, short saling, buying, rehabbing, and successfully
selling real estate for over a decade.
Her
niche is finding foreclosures with no equity, negotiating
with the banks to accept less than what is owed, thus creating
a "Short Sale." Over the last several years she
has developed a hugely successful "Short Sale" system
that has earned her and her students hundreds of thousands
of dollars. She wants to share that knowledge with you. Her
goal is simple
to teach you how to become a "super
investor" using her proven techniques, strategies, and
concepts.
Part 2 - Learn to Negotiate Like a Pro
Bill
Twyford has been buying foreclosures for almost a decade.
In his first year as an investor, he sold eighty properties.
The money was ten times better than any commission he had
earned, so he made the switch from agent to investor, and
his career took off. To date he has sold well over 800 properties.

TOPIC:
No Money Limits: Teaching The Truth about Money
Every
hopeful real estate investor wants to make money in real estate.
This is why people buy books and courses, take real estate
seminars, and attend real estate investment club meetings.
The
reality is that most people who want to make money in real
estate investing don't make money in real estate investing.
Why? It comes down to understanding the truth about making
money.
The
most successful real estate investors know how to make money
because they understand that they are playing a game with
specific money-making rules. Unsuccessful real estate investors
are unsuccessful, precisely because they are playing with
a different set of money rules. And this is where the game
of Monopoly is significant. Too many real estate investors
attempt to play the real estate game with Monopoly-like money
rules.

Miller Time...and the "Big Kahuna" is back

Event)
Don't
miss this once in a blue moon opportunity to spend an evening
with the incomparable Jack Miller.
THERE
IS A SECRET TO GETTING RICH...
Anyone
can learn how to get rich, but there's a catch. You have to
understand MONEY--Why people spend it? When? How. Where? For
What? You have to understand how a little money, plus time,
can create a fortune for anyone. Test yourself. Do you know
someone who isn't particularly smart or talented or energetic
who seems to have made a lot of money, or who owns a lot of
property?
My
name is Jack Miller. I've been a successful investor in single
family houses for 45 years. I've bought, sold, leased, managed,
built, exchanged, financed and owned several hundred properties.
Real estate is the main source of both my income and accumulated
assets, thus, I can speak from years of actual experience.
LET
ME TELL YOU A LITTLE STORY...
Once upon a time I was 40 years old and out of work. I'd been
an executive with a Fortune 500 company with specialized technical
skills. Without warning, I suddenly became a casualty of a
corporate downsizing. I had two teenagers at home and a mortgage.
I'd placed my future into the hands of my employer and felt
secure with a retirement plan which would provide enough money
for a comfortable lifestyle, recreation and travel. Suddenly
I was out of work.
MIDDLE-AGED,
OUT OF WORK, AND BROKE
My assets consisted of experience for which there were no
jobs and a real estate license I'd picked up just for fun.
The only employment I could find was as a residential real
estate salesman. Although I'd owned real rental houses previously,
I knew nothing about real estate or financing and had never
earned a living as a salesman before. I had to start from
scratch to learn the business.
In the real estate market that prevailed then, there were
lots of buyers, but no sellers. I had to learn ways to prospect
for cash sale listings because unmotivated sellers would settle
for nothing less. That involved developing innovative ways
to qualify buyers so they could obtain financing for their
home purchases. In the process of creating down payments,
I had to devise supplemental income credits, decorating and
landscaping allowances. In the process I discovered ways to
use virtually anything they owned in trade as down payments
to reduce the amount they had to borrow, and along with it,
their monthly payments.
LEARNING
HOW TO BUY AND SELL HOUSES FROM SCRATCH
Suddenly, just when I was beginning to learn how to make money
in a competitive selling market, the economy flip flopped.
The buyers all disappeared and the phones stopped ringing.
In order to earn a living, I had to come up with creative
ways to locate buyers for all the properties that eager sellers
wanted to list with me. Even when I found a buyer, interest
rates on mortgage money was often too expensive for them to
be able to afford the purchase. Necessity forced me to innovate.
I learned ways to "create paper" with which to close
a deal. Leases and Options became basic building blocks for
making deals. So did contracts.
BREAKTHROUGH!
BUYING AND SELLING FOR MYSELF!
One day it occurred to me that rather than properties per
se, what I was really selling were my negotiating and deal-making
skills. Instead of listing properties for sale, I began focusing
my efforts on increasing my income. I started by buying Options
on houses, then "flipping my Options, selling them either
for cash or terms depending upon the deal. When I controlled
the property, I could make more sophisticated transactions.
But this required me to develop better negotiating skills
and closing techniques. In the process, I had to learn the
ways that taxes affected a sale from both the buyer's and
seller's points of view.
Some of the most powerful techniques I learned were based
upon tax free exchanges and gifts. These benefited both buyer
and seller at the expense of the tax collector. And I found
ways to structure complex transactions which solved financial
and tax problems for both buyers and sellers in order to earn
bigger profits; far greater than might have been made simply
earning commissions or merely "flipping options".
RETIREMENT
AFTER ONLY 5 YEARS!
Finally things began to click. During one 153 week period,
I closed one or more deals each week in the capacity of broker,
buyer, seller, or Optionee. At the age of 45, a short five
years after I first started selling real estate, I was able
to close my office and retire to the good life with my wife,
touring the country in my motorhome and traveling in Europe
and Asia. Why am I telling you all this? Because the time
is as ripe as I've seen it in almost 20 years for you to do
it too. I'll even tell you how to do it. Read on . . .
You can only look at so many sunsets, catch so many fish,
or play so many rounds of golf before retirement gets to be
a job. As a bored retiree, I started making the rounds of
community social clubs as a luncheon speaker telling others
about my experiences. From this sprang the first seminar in
the world oriented toward the single family house as an investment
vehicle. For the person who wants to build wealth starting
with little or nothing, the single family house still offers
more possibilities than any other type of investment. But
there's a catch: You've got to have an intense desire to be
rich, and be willing to work hard to learn as many real estate
insiders' fortune-building secrets as you can. I'll share
these with you.
BIRTH
OF A NATIONAL NEWSLETTER
I started as a speaker, then as a seminar educator of thousands
of people, many of whom went on to start their own seminars.
In 1978, I wrote the first issue of The Commonwealth Letters,
the first ever monthly newsletter devoted to single family
house investors. My objective was to provide readers with
insights on how to achieve financial security over and above
that provided by their career, regardless how successful.
Since then, I've been able to help readers to consistently
make money more than any other publication.
IT'S
TIME TO MAKE A DECISION FOR YOUR FINANCIAL FUTURE
If you aren't 100% certain of your future financial security,
it's time for you to make the decision to become financially
independent. This will be an easy decision! Either you're
happy with your lot in life or you're not! Either you've already
provided for your family's financial security or you're willing
to bet their lifestyle on your employer or the government.
It's up to you to take action now before time passes you by.
Wouldn't you really rather control your financial future yourself?
You can, as an entrepreneur in real estate. Thousands have
done it before you starting with little cash or know-how.
They didn't have the advantage of being coached by someone
who's been where you are now, and gone where you want to go;
someone who can make it happen a lot faster than you think
possible if you take his advice. It's your choice...

financial, personal and credit success goals.
Asset
& Business Protection
The
Need for Asset Protection: Every three seconds another American
is sued. We live in the most litigious society on earth. Many
claims are frivolous and without merit, brought only to harass
and squeeze settlement dollars out of an innocent party. In
this environment it is prudent to protect your assets ahead
of time. Once you have been sued the courts disapprove of
moving or protecting assets. With the proper asset protection
planning you can shield your valuable business, real estate
and investment assets from claims brought against you as an
individual.
In
this presentation you will learn how to protect yourself through
the strategy of asset protection. Asset protection involves
utilizing limited liability entities, such as corporations,
LLCs and LPs, as well as certain trusts to minimize your personal
exposure. As John D. Rockefeller said: "Own nothing and
control everything." When a plaintiff's attorney is looking
for people to sue you want your profile to be low. If during
an asset search your name does not show up as an owner, but
you control your assets through a mix of limited liability
entities and trusts with privacy protections, you will gain
protection.
The
Right (and Wrong) Way to Protect Assets: There is a misperception
that asset protection is only for the very rich. This is not
true. Almost all asset protection strategies are very affordable
to implement, especially when compared with the potential
loss of a lifetime's worth wealth building. The problem arises
when you implement a "poor man's asset protection"
strategy. Using the right mix of entities is an important
asset protection tool. In some cases a series of both Nevada
and Wyoming entities (LLCs, LPs and Corporations) can be used
to implement an effective asset protection strategy. However,
there is no one size fits all approach that works. You will
learn that not every entity is appropriate for every situation.
Deciding when and how to use a C corporation, S corporation,
limited liability company or limited partnership, or a combination
thereof, is an important consideration. Knowing how these
entities can strategically work together to protect your assets,
as well as how to maintain the limited liability protections,
is also very important
The
best way to approach asset protection is to do it early (before
you are aware of a lawsuit or get involved in any business
or investing activity) and do it right.
