How to Overcome Real Estate Challenges
Investing is real estate without a plan you can expect to face a lot of challenges.
The market is in a horrible state for the most part, around the entire country.
A lot of the sellers that reach out to investors don't have a lot of equity and in most cases their houses are upside down.
Their mortgages are simply over financed.
The other challenge that the market is facing, there aren't many buyers that are in a position to purchase good deals.
The buyers that are in a position are afraid the buy right now because they hear the media saying home values are sinking like a 40 ton anchor, unless the buyer likes the house for a place to live.
It's hard to overcome the obstacles that we as investors face during these economic tough times.
The only way to make a profit in this current market is to have a solid plan.
When planning for this market, investors need to know first how they are going to find motivated sellers with equity.
There are plenty of sellers with houses that they can't give away to someone, because they bought their homes during a time when the market had sharp appreciation.
Those sellers are in a sense victims of the economy.
Chasing behind foreclosures isn't the way to go now, since most are very behind on their payments.
Next, the investor has to come up with a solid exit strategy that will put the ball in their court when they do find a seller with equity.
Like it was said earlier there aren't a lot of buyers so investors need to make sure they have buyers lined up before they go out looking for deals or the investor must plan on holding the property until the market clears.
