2009: A Year in the Life of MustKnowInvesting.com

Tuesday, December 29th, 2009

8 Comments »

Year in the life 2009 MustKnowInvesting.comWow! It sure is amazing how time flies, isn’t it?

Sooooo much has happened in only a year …

2009 Kicked off with the Creative Real Estate Solutions in Today’s Market Video Series, then MustKnowInvesting.com turned 1, Trevor Mauch and I launched our Private Money Blueprint System (Holy Cow! What an Undertaking!), the Battle of the REI Blogs, and MUCH MORE.

Thank goodness I decided to get my butt out of bed this past weekend and go to church. That’s where I got the idea to do this post because they put together a “year in review” video with all the highlights of 2009. So, I thought it would be really cool to do a post called …

A Year in the Life of MustKnowInvesting.com

Let’s just jump right in … here we go …

The “Creative Real Estate Solutions in Today’s Market” Video Series

We kicked off the year in January with the Creative Real Estate Solutions in Today’s Market video series (over 2 1/2 hours of solid content). It was a 5 part in depth video series on wholesaling, private money, subject tos, owner financing, and much more. And at the end of the series, we took on a very limited number of students in our mentoring program.

One of those students, Justin Wilmot, a twenty somthin’ self proclaimed surfer dude from Florida, had quite the year; he closed his first wholesale deal, locked up a million dollar credit line through a private money lender, and closed his first rehab deal. To say Justin’s life will never be the same would be quite the understatement.

5 Deadly Mistakes Real Estate Investors Make Using Social Media

Thursday, December 10th, 2009

4 Comments »

Social_Media_Mistakes_Omar_BurgosIn today’s post, real estate investing social media expert, Omar Burgos, shares the deadly mistakes you must avoid when using social media – Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube …

It’s very fitting that my relationship with Omar started through Social Media.  He was on the lookout for a killer private money system and heard about the Private Money Blueprint through Andy Proper (btw – Andy has some awesome resources over on his real estate investing blog so make sure to check ‘em out after watching the video below).

Anyway, Omar immediately headed on over to Twitter to connect with me; that’s where our relationship started. We went from a few tweets, to a few emails, to a few phone calls, and got a chance recently to hang out together at a conference. This is how relationships are evolving online these days.

Who knows … you may meet your next wholesale buyer, your next private money lender through Twitter or Facebook.

Since I had access to a REI social media expert, I asked him if he would share some of the biggest mistakes he sees people making when using social media … and luckily for us, he was happy to.

Check it out …

7 Anybody-Can-Do-It Strategies for Networking Your Way to Wealth

Wednesday, December 2nd, 2009

No Comments »

In today’s post, Shae Bynes of Good Faith Investing shares some tips with us on networking your way to wealth …

Networking_Real_Estate_InvestingHave you ever heard the saying “Your network is greater than your net worth”? I’m a firm believer in this statement. It’s been frequently noted by top success and goal experts that working collaboratively with others and establishing strong relationships is absolutely vital to achieve your goals in a faster and smarter way.

I recognize that some of you may be groaning right now and saying to yourself “I’m too shy and reserved”, “I’m a new investor and don’t want to say something stupid”, or “Networking is for schmoozers and salespeople.” You’re wrong.

The truth is that you develop relationships naturally with people all of the time (whether you consider it networking or not) and with a little forethought you can learn to intentionally build key relationships that will take your business to the next level and help others reach their goals at the same time!
