Students Speak Out

Larry T.: San Leandro, CA (Investor)
I have been buying selling probates about 3 years now with Gary's system averaging 40K-60K gross profit per flip. Was told this can't be done by top Real Estate agents I know. I have done about six Level 1's now.

Dave T.: Castro Valley,CA (Investor)
I have been Garys partner for over 20 yrs. I have done over 30 deals with him, most probates with profits now averaging $50K per.

Nick C. (ReMax) Antioch, CA
As a new agent Gary showed me how to work probate. I sold one to a client for 300K and he resold in 60 days for $360K. I made two commissions but should have purchased it myself.

DPF: MI, (Student) 
I wanted to tell you that I closed my first deal 2 weeks ago. It is a 1,000 sf 3br 1ba ranch in a solid middle class neighborhood that I initially mailed to in April. The market value after approximately $10k in renovations is $75k, I bought for $45k. I never thought that I would be hearing "THANKS" so much from buying a home for 60% of it's value! I'm in the automotive industry in Southeastern Michigan. As you have probably read, we are the only area of the country that is still in a recession and the automotive industry is the sector that is dragging everything else down. I bought your course as a backup in case my job was eliminated. When I started to work it though I found that it is the perfect side business. Finding the death notices researching ownership and creating and mailing the letters can all be done outside of my regular job. Since I can only see houses on the weekends the only problem that I have run into is on a couple of occasions I could not see all of the houses during a weekend!

This is a great system. Although I looked, I could not find another business that could give me a 20%-40% raise by doing a single transaction a year. I'm looking forward to using it for a long, long time.

Shelly S.: Columbus, OH (Investor/Agent)
I started using Diamond Farming in 2001, and have purchased probate properties, using the techniques int eh DF course. I have been renting out some of the properties and plan to move into another. I have also sold probate properties to other investors for a commission. I always use the Bulletin Boards, and Gary is easy to reach if I have questions. This course has been a reliable source of income for me.

I now have a passion for applying all of the techniques in the course, and I am thankful that Gary wrote it.

Ed F. S.: Global Property Acquisitions, Inc.
I bought your program about two months ago, and at the end of last month, I did it! I flipped a duplex in Hollywood from a beneficiary who inherited it from his mother. I followed your system to the T, and I tell you that becoming their friend is tops. I have been trying to make it happen in real estate for two years. I am not an agent. I am just a guy who wants to work smarter, not harder. And your system helped me focus. I now get about two to three calls a week, mostly from people asking where I got their information. But it's been looking good and I couldn't be happier. I now need to safeguard the money I made and figure the taxes and write-offs. I give you the thanks for putting out something that really works, because I have been reading a whole lot of other stuff that does make sense, but have many holes as far as "how-to-do-it". In all, you have helped make a dream come true, and helped me start something I can trul

TWO TYPES OF PROBATE PROCEDURE FOR SELLING PROBATE HOMES IN CALIF 

18 Nov 2011, 10:35 am

How is a home in probate sold! I have been asked this question over and over so I thought I would visit it again with this blog.  This is useful Information for Agents and Investors.

I will speak about California Probate Real Estate but if you are out of California the process will be equal to or something less as California is the strictest State to buy and sell Probate Homes in.  Just try to understand the CA procedure and choices then adjust to your area.  Probate Agents must know this information.

Old Probate Process:We have the old process where you bid on a home in Probate and with your bid you have to make a 10% deposit based on the Sales price.  So if a 250K house you would send in $25K with your offer and before your offer is accepted.  This is tough as most buyers don't have $25K to place up front as they may be buying FHA or VA and their down would only be around $8000.  Many will ask for closing costs so right off the top if you represent one of these buyers you would not have a chance to purchase what could be a good deal for you or your client. If you are an investor you probably have the $25K for deposit but it would probably place you on hold from making other offers with this much in escrow.

Your offer and any other offers would then be sent to the estate attorney and the best offer would be accepted.  Most of the time you will have competition (in this market) as most well priced listings are drawing multiple offers and more agents and buyers are going direct to the executor before the MLS listing.  Now the estate attorney will petition the court to bring the offer to the court referee to approve.  This process takes from 6 to 8 weeks but your or your clients deposit will be cashed and placed in escrow.  During this 6-8 week period the estate will have the subject property appraised by the court referee (accountant usually not a certified appraiser).  The person will perform what is called a windshield appraisal, gather some comps from a comp service and do a drive by.  They don't go in 90% of the time.  I have found these appraisal bogus and usually high.  If the property appraises for $275K even though listed at $250K then the lowest offer the estate could accept would be 90% of this number or $247,500.  This may or may not be a good number. If the property is really worth $300K then this may be a good buy for you or your client.  If the property is worth $250K as listed then you are paying retail and remember these probate sales are "as is".  If the property is worth $225 then  your stuck and many times I find these appraisal higher than actual value and anywhere from 5 to 10% off.  This really hurts the estate as no one will usually want to buy the property under this scenario so another reason the old probate process is bogus.  I believe the referee price the home 5% or more high as they know the estate can sell for 10% less and this leaves the appraiser free from complaint if they appraised to low and the estate did not receive close to retail.  (Just my opinion).  In any event the 10% deposit and court appraisal are reasons why most agents and investors stay away from probate homes.  

Now let's say the appraisal works and your buyer has 10% to place upfront as a deposit.  You have a court date scheduled for  6 to 8 weeks later so now you are on hold.  The next step will be for the court to schedule a hearing date to confirm the sale.  While you are waiting for the court date you are on hold.  The sale is usually published in a local newspaper with your price and terms available to anyone who is tracking probates.  If you are using a loan to purchase this home you will need to determine if you should spend now for reports and a bank appraisal or wait till final confirmation and no other bidders come into play.  As an investor,  I prefer to know what I'm buying before the court confirmation hearing so I will have my contractor go to the home and do a check for any position foundation, pest or roof issues which could be expensive.   If I'm representing a buyer I also want to know what is the condition.  If my offer is a FHA or VA and the buyer was able to place a 10% deposit then we need to know if any issues as this is a "As Is" sale and could be an issue after our offer is confirmed in Court.  We must close after the confirmation is confirmed so you better know what your work needed is up front so you can back out before the hearing or regegoiate.  The problem here is you or your buyer will have to pay for inspections without knowing if you will be awarded the property in court.  You may be outbid if you have a good price.   If you don't close after the confirmation hearing you or your clients deposit can be forfeited to the court so BEWARE and UNDERSTAND this process.  Another reason why most agents and investors stay away form Probates.  

NEXT BLOG I WILL CONTINUED ON THE OLD PROBATE PROCESS.   Once I cover this I will then write about the new probate process (Law) which bypassed all the above red tape and makes a probate home purchase much easier and in the buyers favor.  Probate Real Estate is a goldmine if you know how to make it work for you or your client.  TO BE CONTINUED.

 

The Earning Vehicle (source) Doesn't Matter....Having Your Time Back Does 

16 Nov 2011, 1:57 am

I must admit I have enjoyed writing about my probate real estate business and what it has meant to my family over the last 23 years.  It has made the difference as this niche has kept me a top producing agent even during the downturn markets as well as a successful investor.   Probate Homes have not only kept me earning Six Figures but it has also allowed me to meet some great people (executors and heirs) and gave me a sense of accomplishment helping these people in their time of loss do whatever was in the best interest for their family.  It really  has been a blessing that I found this niche back in 1987.  I have passed my probate system on to many over the last 18 years.  I will continue to offer this info to agents and investors in hopes some will stick it out until they have success.  

What I want to talk about now is another Great Niche which came to me by a broker friend I know and trust.  This was a complete different business then what I have been doing for 38 years but the end result is actually better.  For the past 11 months I have been working in a niche many have never heard of.  I'm actually in the ground floor and the upside is even better than Probate Real Estate could ever be.  I'm still working my probates but I scaled back some of my hours 11 months ago and started doing this business part time with my son and the real estate agents who brought this to us.  What has happened has been beyond belief.  I really want to pass this on to my real estate community.  

Does it really matter what the earning vehicle is if we are earning?  I don't think so because it's all about money at the end of the day so we can control our time.  Time is is the most cherished possession we can have.  Money dictates how much time we can be with our family, do the things we want to do and with the people we want to do them with.  Money by itself isn't the golden goose but the Time back which money gives us is what counts.  It's why I looked at probate in the first place as I wanted more time with my family as they entered their teens so I could coach and travel with them.  Probate allowed me to cut my time down 2/3 from 60 to 20 hours per week and keep my earnings up.  It wasn't Probate Real Estate but the money which I could make which gave me the time I was looking for with my family.  What a blessing.

Now with this new opportunity which I have been working for the last 11 months I find myself in a position where in another month or two I will be earning the money good real estate cycles bring BUT I will have even more time to enjoy with my family.  It's been an amazing ride.  Not easy and I have been working hard around my 70 hour real estate week but now my real estate has been cut to 40 hours, I work this new business around 10 to 15 hours per week and I'm building something that probate real estate could never give me; RESIDUAL INCOME!

My son has left his TV Producer job and brought his wife home to be a stay at home mom all within the last 11 months.  He is a few weeks away from a position in this new company which will pay him more than he has ever made in real estate or the television industry PLUS he has more time for his kids now than ever before and his TIME back. I have watched him work, never second guessing those who where training him and then in turn working with me to bring me along with him.   Again, you really don't know what you don't know!

So I write this because I want all in the real estate industry to understand big money is there and in a ground floor opportunity which is poised to explode in 2012.  The upside with this new business is bigger than probate real estate could ever be for me so I'm going to follow it through.  This time I don't have to reinvent the wheel  (probate system trial and error process) but just follow a system which has been laid out by others and prov-en over the last 19 years.  

This business goes hand in hand with real estate helping your clients at the close of escrow.  You don't have to stop your real estate business just add to it.  It's win/win and now that I have worked it, earned good money and I'm building a residual income I'm sharing it with my Diamond Farming Probate Students and the Active Rain community.  No matter where you live you can benefit with this business as it's in every State in the USA and in 23 Countries on 4 continents.  I encourage those who may have an interest in earning extra money (more than you can imagine) around what they are currently doing to contact me for more information.  We are looking for business partners to join our team.   You need to have a desire for something better than what you are doing and be coachable.  It's not only about earning money because you may earn all you need but maybe to have the same money or more but with your time back as this is residual income.  We do the work once then we are paid monthly, over and over again.

You don't know what you don't know so keep an open mind (like I did in 2010), check it out then make an informed, value judgment if this may be for you.

We are having a Complimentary Webinar on this business, this Thursday, 11/17 at 8pm.  It is about 45 mins and my son who is a rising leader in the company and expanding this business all over the San Francisco Bay Area will be presenting how we are being page every time someone pays their Energy and other bills.  My Diamond Farming Probate Students are coming on board as they have this earning mentallity so come join us.   We are looking for sharp, go-getters who will take this and run but with guidance, leadership and mentors.

I have been involved in a Plan B income around my Probate Real Estate for about 10 months now and have reported the progress.  My son Jr and I where approached from some high powered real estate agents who where taking their income to another level.   Along with there Six Figure real estate business they where building monthly residual income with the goal to have all their fixed monthly expenses (Home and Business) covered by the Plan B.  After a little research (Donald Trump & Robert Kiyosaki Endorse this 20 Year Old Company) we jumped in and it has been a fantastic ride.

You really don't know what you don't know so I have always kept an open mind and checked out opps as they where presented to me over my 38 years of business.   This one has the greatest upside, is ground floor with the deregulation of Energy and only has a 1% market share.   Nothing but upside.
 
I have been passing this info on to my probate real estate students and many have joined my son and I and are building their own monthly residual income ATM's around what they currently do.  Yes, I do this around my 50 hour real estate work week but I'm on target to match my real estate income by Dec 2012 and exactly 2 years after jumping in.  WOW!
 
So I'm sharing this with my Active Rain members so check it out and see if you find any value.  Monday 10/17/22 at 12 Noon (PST) my son (who is a leader in the expansion of this business in the Bay Area) will be holding a online webinar (30 mins) in which he will explain the opportunity.   I invite you to register on the link above and check this out.  It could change your life......GD

R/E AGENTS: MULTIPLE STREAMS OF INCOME YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT 

14 Oct 2011, 1:15 pm

Greetings! it has been awhile since I last blogged about my probate business and all the exciting things my team has been doing in 2010.   YES! we are in a weird market but my office is knocking down listings and sales and if your business is down you may need to make a change of what you are doing.  The same actions are going to create the same results so try to examine what you are doing and open your mind to other ideas.   Even in this extremely difficult real estate climate I have been maintaining my Six Figure Income and moving forward with new opportunities which go hand in hand with my real estate.  

Probate Real Estate has been my anchor business for the last 24 years now.  It has provided the income base for me year in and year out regardless of market conditions.   Heirs do not have the same mindset as home owners who need to sell and must have every dollar to purchase another home and move on.   Even in Probate Short Sales it's a plus as the Executor Heir will receive the Fee (5 figures usually) for acting as the personal rep for the estate EVEN if the estate is insolvent.   WOW! how cool is this.  I can take a short sale which is in Probate and show the petitioner (heir) who will act as the Executor how to be paid.  I even show the estate attorney how to be paid on an estate where there is no money.  Think about it Folks!

This is what Probate Real Estate brings to my team as far as revenue opps...

1.  Probates we purchase wholesale for investors then we receive the listing if a flip (2 possible commissions)

2.  We double end probates which we could not purchase at the proper wholesale price to end user buyers and we earn a 5-6% commission.

3. On probate homes we could not purchase or didn't have a buyer in hand we receive the listing because we have made a friend with the executor and they understand we are experts who can help them.  A listing per month is not too difficult.  What would 12 extra deals do for your real estate production each year.

4. Farming Probates: in Alameda and Contra Costa Counties (NorCal) where I work probates we average 100 new probate files per month which have real estate.   50% will sell during the probate process and 50% will wait until after final distribution (do you know what that means?).  We take the 50% or 500+ properties which did not sell and we make them are RE Farm for the next year.  Once heirs complete the probate process and take ownership of the estate home they usually rent it out or place a family member there to live.  This usually blows up after a few months with the rental headaches OR the heirs, now done with the probate process, start thinking about the several hundred thousand dollars sitting there and decide they want it and not the headache.  We are in position to list or purchase as we keep in monthly contact with them after the completion of the probate process (Yes Farming).   THINK ABOUT THIS MY FELLOW AGENTS!

5.  BUYERS BANK:  Now all along the probate process when I'm trying to sell a probate (listing or not) I pick up multiple buyers from our (FREE) ads and we make other sales even if we don't receive the listing or make a sale still brings us buyers for other sales.

6. HOME SERVICES:  I have now partnered up with a company who provides all the home services my buyers will need when they purchase a home.  We sign them up for these services through our website storefront and we receive a piece of the monthly bill each month.  This is residual income folks and a great way to  start a retirement program.  PLUS our clients usually receive a discount on these services which they where going to order anyway.  WOW!  Check this video out on this Program:  http://bit.ly/p45ZRP

So you can see how Probate Real Estate leads to multiple chances of income and the only thing which is preventing you from having these tools is knowledge.   I even reduced the cost for my course by 80% this year to help my fellow agents learn this system at less then a good dinner (with Wine lol) for two.   This is my way of giving back before I ride off into the sunset with my Wife and Harley.

INVESTOR MONTHLY EDUCATOR JOHN REED ENDORSES GARYD'S PROBATE BOOK 

6 Oct 2011, 8:00 am

When I first started writing about my probate real estate experiences (1987 to 2011) I ran all my early transactions through John Reed who is one of the best investor educators in the Country.   I knew John and wanted his opinion of what I was doing since I was doing this on my own without guidance.     

John liked my deals so much he not only endorsed me as the Top Probate Guy "Guru" but he wrote a complete chapter in one of his investment books "How to Buy Real Estate at Least 20% Off".    John also has a Real Estate "Guru" BS rating section at his website you can link to (below link) which list just about anyone who is anybody in the real estate education business.  I was fortunate to be one he approves of and again because he reviewed my probate buy and sells first hand.   Access John's site as he has many fine books and tools to help your investor business.  As an agent this is a great way to help you understand the investors view point and go after Investors who make up over 50% of the business today in my area.

http://www.johntreed.com/Reedgururating.html

Probate Homes are a great way to add more production and revenue to your real estate business.   Here is what it can do for you....

1.  Represent Investors who buy and flip probates (earn up to 3 commissions each deal)

2.  Bring Buyers to Estates and double end sales (all off the MLS radar and no competition

3.  Represent landlords who want rental properties (earn double commissions)

4.  Represent estates who need a probate expert to list the estate home for retail sale

The above opportunities with probate homes can make you a top producer in your area and push you past the Six Figure income mark.   It has been a wonderful source of income for me over the last 23 years and although more agents and investors are involved with probates today then the 80's and 90's, there are still ample opportunities.

NEVER A BETTER TIME:  to learn the probate niche as I have slashed the course price from $499 to $99 to help agents and investors who have been hurt by the economy to purchase the system.

Visit my site:  www.probate-realestate.com and learn what probate homes can do for you, how to obtain the information and read my blogs.  Everything I do is in my blogs so take advantage.  Be a Probate Agent and reap the rewards....

 

HOW TO AVOID 10% DEPOSITS WITH CALIFORNIA PROBATE REAL ESTATE 

6 Sep 2011, 11:01 am

I have been receiving messages from agents and investors in regard to the 10% deposit required when you make an offer on a probate property.   I have covered this a few times in the past but it's a good topic and really worth taking the time to understand.  This will help you do more deals and not tie up money with large deposits so check it out.

In California, the old probate law requires a buyer to place a 10% (of offer price) deposit up when they submit their offer.   So if we are making a $250K offer on a probate property along with our offer, and pre-approval bank letter if financed, you will need a check for $25K (10% of offer) before your offer will be looked at.   Well not a big deal right since you are offering "All Cash" and have the money.  But what about the non investor who wants to buy the home to move into or an RE Agent representing a FHA or VA or low down Conventional move in buyer?  What do these buyers do who are buying the home with low down payment programs and asking for closing costs.  What happens to these buyers is they PASS ON the probate home.  No biggee you say?  Will what just happened is 70% of the buyer market just passed on your family home or listing.  This usually works out to an investor offer only and a wholesale deal.  Not so good for the estate or the FHA/VA buyer or the agent representing these types of buyers.   Also, for you investors with the cash HOW many of these homes can you make offers on at $25K per deposit?

What most don't understand is the deposit will sit anywhere from 6 weeks (if your lucky) to 8 to 12 weeks while the probate case and offer is petition to the court for a confirmation hearing.  Many times the sale is held up because of an heir who doesn't like the price or court paperwork which wasn't correct.  Delay after delay in some situations.  Also, you offer could be outbid in court and all this time was wasted.  If you as an investor finds another, better probate which also requires a 10% deposit (same price) and you want to make an offer then you have to place another $25K in deposit.  This isn't the best situation and another reason why most investors have passed on Probate Real Estate.   Also, just losing the FHA/VA/CONV low down buyers usually throws the good retail sale out the window.

The good news in California is the Independent Administration of Estate Act which now gives the Estate an option to sell outside of the court confirmation process and bypass the 10% deposit rule and many others.  This Act was established in 1987 but didn't become popular until around 2000.   I on the other hand have made thousands using the Act from day one.   This Act allows us to place any deposit we want on a probate home which means we can make multiple offers with just a limited amount of money.  This also means the estate can receive retail offers from FHA/VA and low down Conventional buyers which will result in more net proceeds to the estate.  As an agent I hunt for these low down buyers as most agents don't want to deal with this type of buyers (who needs closing costs also).  Remember, these deals rarely make it to the MLS so we are working on homes most don't know about.

My probate system uses the I.A.E.A in 95% of the probate homes we go after either as a wholesale investor offer or from a end user, move in buyer client (FHA/VA) who can pay retail.    Understanding the entire old probate system and the new system can be very lucrative for you investor and agents who will take the time to learn something new.   This I.A.E.A has kept me earning Six Figures even during this crazy market.   Check more on my probate system and what I have been doing for over 20 years with Probate at my website: www.probate-realestate.com

Complimentary: Probate Real Estate Basics for Agents and Investors 

25 Aug 2011, 9:02 am

I have just completed my Probate Short Sale Webinar which was recorded and is now available on my website.  This is a great tool for extra deals when you find a probate home which is underwater.  Most estate attorneys do not know they can still complete the probate and both the executor and attorney can be paid their fee even in a no equity situation.  I have closed several and my webinar explains how you do it.   Probate Real Estate is a goldmine most agents and investors are not pursuing. 

I am now finishing my Probate Real Estate Basics Webinar and for a short period of time I'm going to make it available (Complimentary) FIRST to California Real Estate Agents and Investors.   I may open it up for other states but I'm limiting the amount I will give away since this is a $99 value.  Now you can have this Webinar in your file and listen to it anytime you want.  I cover everything you need to know about getting started in Probate Homes either as an Agent or Investor or both.

Please keep in mind most of my probate deals are not through the MLS as I deal direct with the estate and either buy the property if a wholesale purchase works for the heirs or I bring a end user buyer for a close to retail purchase.   I am usually the only agent so I double end most of these sales.  One of these double end deals per month is not rare if you work the system as in my two Counties I have more than 100 new probate home leads per month.  Think about this!  100 homes, most paid off and vacant where heirs are going to receive FREE money.   This is the market I have worked for the last 23+ years.

I have been teaching agents and investors, under the radar since 1992 how to do this probate business and I have been making it available to Active Rain members at a discount and throwing in Webinars from time to time.  I even started a probate lead business in the San Francisco Bay area where my team does all the research, completes the tracking sheet and sends them weekly to my probate students and clients who sign up for this service.  I'm not sure how much more I can do for you other than do the deal for you lol.

I'm moving more and more away from the everyday real estate sales business and more into the educational side of probate real estate.  I have a wealth of knowledge and information I want to pass along to my fellow agents and investors before I retire from the RE Biz.  I'm now in my 38th year and the business has become more difficult but I still love real estate.  I hope you take advantage of my offering.  Being a Probate Real Estate Agent has allowed me to be a Top Producer even in a very difficult last few years.  Take Advantage! GD

ADD PROBATE REAL ESTATE TO YOUR CURRENT BIZ IN 24 HOURS 

15 Aug 2011, 6:02 pm

I have been speaking on how Probate Real Estate has enhanced my real estate production for over the last 20+ years.  More and More agents are starting to take notice FINALLY of the goldmine probate homes can be if you just take the time to learn something new.  Yes, you have to spend a little money but I have reduced my 15yr price of $495 down to $99, I have provided probate lead tracking sheets for those in Alameda and Contra Costa Counties and a connection to Probate Leads in SoCal.  I am adding Webinars that you can now keep and refresh anytime you want.   (Probate R/E Basics and Probate Short Sales) are currently available and I will have several more webinars you can watch when you want, where you want, stop and start so how much easier can it be.

I have had a few tell me $99 is so much in these times.  WOW!  the reason it's a big price for you is that you aren't working smart!   You missed the REO niche which I feel is over rated, your paid less than you are worth and will end in a few short years.  Many agents who where not Top Producers during the regular real estate market are now Mega Agents doing 100+ deals (REO's) with huge teams and expenses.  That is Great! but soon your REO golden goose will end and the what will you have.  Your regular RE business was let go or evaporated like many agents not in the business now.   This is a quick fix and will change.  I hope you Mega Agents save your REO money and do something wise with it as you are in for a let down when the market changes and you have to start over doing something else, let your team go and start humping the streets for biz.

I have and still do REO's so I'm not saying don't.  I do short sales (but just probates or Wachovia's) were we can be paid quick (30 days closes) but as always I have kept my probate business going which keeps me in the Six Figure earning bracket and helps me through these tough times.  I learned my lessons when I took my lumps in the 80's.   

So I will show you how to be up and running in your own probate business within 24 hours going after listings, sales and double ends.  Invest in yourself ($99) and start setting the pace for a new niche to look into along with what you are doing. I'm told I'm giving this value information away and should be charging $1K for it instead of $99.  I know a associate Probate Agent who does 100 probates per year charging $1000 for one hour of his time to learn what he is doing.  I may be crazy but again I'm paying it forward and giving back to my community before I call it quits and ride off in the sunset on my Harley and wife and finally slow down.

If you don't know what the I.A.E.A is or how to earn from it then you are losing thousands.  If you just pick up the phone when your attorney calls with a probate listing then you are not what we call a "Six Figure Probate Agent" but just an order taker with a few probate listings per year.  I'm talking about 50+ leads per month from estates with real estate who most likely will be selling. 

Future Webinars:

*Making the initial phone call to the Petitioner or Executor

*Scripting the first appt and walkthru

*How to write your offer and addendum's plus weasel clauses

*How to change a court referee appraisal if you are dealing with one

*How to work the courthouse.

*How to fill out the Probate Tracking sheet and why the info is important.

*How to sell probate property you don't have the listing on (an no one knows)

 

My phone is on (510-278-2017) 24/7 to take your calls on Probate R/E and answer all your questions. The information is here and all you need to start earning with probates BUT I can't make you pick up the phone or go online and order.   This is all on you.  Just think about where you are now and where you where 3 years ago and if you don't like the position you are in WHAT will make that change for the better 3 years in the future.

AGENTS! WHY PROBATE REAL ESTATE: 91 MILLION REASONS 

4 Aug 2011, 3:25 pm

There was $91 Million in Closed Probates through my MLS in 1 Year

How Many Probates Did You Do?

 


WHAT IS PROBATE AND HOW TO FIND PROBATE FILES

                                                                        

The majority of real estate agents are under the impression probate real estate is a losing proposition.   Now, I’m seeing more and more agents looking at probate harder these days, but the overall feeling is it’s still second fiddle to Foreclosures & REO’s.  In today’s market, Short-sales and REO’s are back in the saddle but will soon pass.  Probates stay constant!


Many Agents believe if they are lucky enough to find a probate their client will have to place a 10% deposit and wait 6-8 weeks or so, depending on how busy the court calendar is to obtain confirmation and allow them to proceed with the escrow/closing, which can take another 45 days.   Plus add to this burden someone else overbidding in court and your client loses the probate property and you your commission. For this reason, since 1987, I have had very little agent competition for the probates I have purchased for myself, other investors and end user buyers (move in buyers).  

 

The majority of agents believe probates are controlled by the attorney,  takes a very long time to close, and the commission will be reduced in court, or worse, someone else may overbid their client’s offer and they will receive nothing.  After 23+ years of buying and selling probates, I still can’t believe how so many agents can be so wrong.  I’m not complaining, but wow!


(ARE YOU A PROBATE AGENT?)


The typical agent who thinks he/she is working probates actually just has a relationship with an estate attorney (college alumni good old boy, family friend, spouse, or kid) and receives all the attorney’s probate listings.

I still see the same agents in my area receiving probate listings from the same attorneys over the years.  Without really doing anything special probate-wise, although they’re good agents, they are handed probate listings, place them in the MLS, and usually wait until another agent sells them.  Nice work if you can get it, but for some reason, I haven’t had much luck with attorneys giving me listings (5 in 23 years) plus no one in my family practices law and I’m not connected to college alumni Good Ole Boys attorneys for referrals.

I have taken away many a probate sale in court from agents who just looked dumbfounded when they witnessed me walk in and purchase the probate property right out from under them, even though they tried to hide the sale.  Not once has one of these agents, who just lost a commission to me in court, asked me how I knew about it.  Amazing, but it works for me, so don’t tell them as you find out!

EARNING FROM PROBATE REAL ESTATE 5 DIFFERENT WAYS 

11 Jul 2011, 1:58 am

I thought these testimonials from 3rd party sources on my Probate Real Estate Kit would be interesting to those of you who want to start in.   Only $99 now so jump on this!

 

Diamond Farming, 
reviewer: Diamond Farmer from California
I am an East Bay Area resident, and Gary Digrazia is fairly well known throughout the Bay Area and is liked by many. Until I see otherwise I would highly endorse his teachings. Specifically on the topic of probate purchases. If you haven't yet read a copy of his book "Diamond Farming" then I would suggest picking it up soon. I have attended many real estate investing workshops and classes, some good and some bad, and I believe that it is wise to have a balance of education from various high quality sources. Gary is definitely one of them! I would also highly endorse Nouveau Riche University, which is where I have learned the bulk of my real estate investing strategies. Nouveau Riche University
 

 

Best Advice Ever Received Regarding Real Estate, 
reviewer: Ray E. from Silicon Valley - California

For those who might be interested in Real Estate Investing and do NOT want that much competition, Gary's info on Probate investing is straightforward, easy to read and UNDERSTAND! (I'm not an agent, yet felt confident I could do this type of investing after I was finished reading the materials!) If you're also a licensed agent, there's more ways to earn then just 'flipping'..., so I would hightly recommend getting his information...especially if you're looking for MORE LEADS and MORE $$$ in commissions!

 

He is honest and his method is excellent, 
reviewer: A. Sharp from Southern California
I set up a system based on what he teaches and found about eight leads, four of them very good, as a result of only about 100 letters. I then got sick and distracted and never followed through, but if I had stuck with it, I know I would have made several thousands of dollars. (This was in 2002.) Now that I've recovered my health, I am going to get out and the probate research system I created on the basis of what I learned from him. He's completely honest and the price of his advice is miniscule compared to the value.

 

 

The undesputed champ of Probate investing!, 
reviewer: David Ross Mote from Billings, (nowhere) Montana

From what I get, Gary DiGrazia offers up the TRUTH about probate investing.  I wouldn't challenge the quality of material or his experience. I am also a real estate agent, and I can see the upside of taking probates as listings if I cannot get the bargain. Again this author is one of the best when it comes the technicalities of probate and the shear numbers you have to screen through. Good luck and happy investing!

As many of you know I have discounted my $495  23 year old course (updated 3 times) to only $99 plus S&H to help more of you learn this valuable real estate niche.  I even provide leads now in my Counties so most of the work is being done for you.  How much more can I do lol.   Take advantage today.  Probates are a goldmine still over looked by most agents and investors.  

ALAMEDA/CONTRA COSTA PROBATE HOME LEAD SERVICE NOW ONLINE 

7 Jul 2011, 11:50 am

I have been working Probate Real Estate as and agent/investor for over 23 years.  I have written many posts on how lucrative this often over looked niche is for smart Agents and Investors who know what they are doing.  I wrote a Probate Course in 1992 (www.probate-realestate.com) that explains how agents and investors can add Six Figures to their Real Estate Income working probate real estate the correct way.  Probate Homes are a goldmine for those who understand the process and how to work around it.

Now I have my PROBATE LEAD SERVICE up and running in Alameda and Contra Costa Counties of Northern California.  I also have an affiliate in SoCal who has all the Probate Leads on line for 5 Counties.  Soon I will have all the Counties around the Bay Area.  You really have it so easy these days!

I provide a weekly P.T.S  (Probate Tracking Sheet) with all the pertinent information (Names, Address, Phone, Property Info, Executor and heir info) where you can just start calling and mailing the estates weekly to ask if they are going to sell.  You can buy (investor) or sell/list (agent).   We average from 50 to 100 new fresh leads per month and all the research is now done for you.   There is no excuse now.  I also will throw in my Probate course manual (only) with your first order of Leads so if you don't have the know how on working probates you will.  

Service for Alameda or Contra Costa County is $49 per month and the first month charge is $99 which includes a probate Manual on how to work probate from start to finish for both investors or agents.  IF you are out of my service area for the leads you can still participate with the full Probate course at a discounted price of $99 ($495 value).  Check out www.probate-realestate.com

I have taken all the work off your shoulders and given you the know how (probate system) and probate leads so all you have to do is contact the estates.  How much easier and affordable can I make this for you.  I'm winding down my business after 37 years so I'm not sure how long these services will be available as I plan to ride off into the sunset on my Harley, with the wife and tour the Country once my residual income program reaches my traget monthly income.  Target date is Dec 2012 so you better hurry up. 

I would grab this 23 years of information and probate leads service asap.   If you have any questions give me a call and we can discuss if Probates is for you.   510-278-2017

FREE WEBINAR ON RESIDUAL INCOME FOR REAL ESTATE AGENTS JULY 6TH 

1 Jul 2011, 4:33 pm

Ok, my Probate Real Estate business has been doing well just like it  has for the last 23 years.  Many have taken advantage of my discounted Probate Course price and I decided to leave it up for awhile as I had so many tell me they wanted the course but could not afford the $495.  So $99 it is for those who want to invest in themselves and learn something new.  Well for a little longer.  

Thanks Great! and I'm happy to give back but this is not what this blog is about.  This is about RESIDUAL INCOME for Real Estate Agents, loan brokers and really anyone who wants to build a residual income in a fairly short period of time.    I have been doing this for six months as it was brought to my son and I from a very good family friend who happens to be the #1 REO Broker in Alameda County (NorCal).  He earns mid Six Figures per year so why would he be doing something else.  The reason is, at his ripe old age of 31 he understands the value of time.  To earn what he earns he and his wife have been working 7 days a week and 10 hrs per day. They have money but are time broke.  They wanted to start a family and couldn't with their hectic work schedule. So a opp was brought to them but one of the bigger ReMax Broker Office owners whose office was at one time the #1 in the World in production.  He and his wife sold their office to do this new opp full time.  You go figure if this may be worth your time to check out.  I did and it is and my son and I are building for long term residual income.

How I approach this new opportunity is through my real estate business each time I or my team closes a sale.  It doesn't matter if we sold the house or another broker as we bring the opportunity to the principles at the close. We help the buyer save money (important in this economy) on services they are already using.  Doesn't change anything for them but saves them some money.   Each month I receive a piece of the monthly payment on the services for just setting this up once with my clients.  I now have  family, friends, past clients and agent associates looking at earning residual by saving money for others and it's catching on like wild fire.

WEDS  JULY 6th @ 12 Noon (PST) I will hold a FREE 30 minute Webinar on how this all works, the 19 year old company we are with, the endorsements, the services and most important how we build residual income helping others save money on what they are already saving.    I'm almost filled on the spots so if you want in email me here or at the GaryDTeam@GMail.com address.  You can also call 510-278-2017 but we need your email address to send the webinar link.   

30 Mins of your time to build residual income.   Hope you take advantage!  GD

Taking the Probate Home out of the Court Process 

22 Jun 2011, 10:44 am

In my Probate Real Estate system it is important to bypass the court confirmation system and other requirements so you can have a smooth transaction for the estate, your buyer and you.   I have been doing this since 1987 when the I.A.E.A was enacted.  This law changed my real estate world back then and I have never looked back over the last 20+ years working Probates!

In California we have two probate systems to sell a piece of real estate which is in Probate.  The old Court Confirmation process is what most agents and buyers are familiar with but using the I.A.E.A (Independent Administration of Estate Act) is the smart choice and benefits everyone involved in the probate sale.   Some of the benefits are....

1. No 10% Required:  In the court confirmation process buyers have to place a 10% deposit (money order) up when making an offer and before they have a signed offer.  This is crazy as for entry level properties this will eliminate over 70% of the buyers out there looking to buy FHA or VA because of limited money.  They bypass the court confirmed probate listing because they don't have the 10% up front. This leaves mostly investors who will place the 10% up with their offer but are usually looking at a wholesale offer.   Bottom line: brings less net proceeds to the estate heirs.  Under the I.A.E.A the 10% deposit is not required.

2. No 90% Appraisal Rule:  Under the Court Confirmation process the court will require an appraisal on the subject (probate) property before the estate can sell.   This appraisal is performed by a court referee who is usually a CPA or a non certified appraiser and only performs what we call a windshield appraisal.  They don't even go into the property.  Just a drive-by, pic and comp service.  This usually means the appraisal is off and most of the time it's off high rather than low.  What this does is handcuffs the estate for true offers since buyers must pay at least 90% of this appraisal so it's usually over retail when the appraisal is high.  Under the I.A.E.A we don't need the appraisal and whatever price the estate can receive and agrees on is all we need.

3. No Court Confirmation Process:  Under the old process when an estate receives an offer they want, the estate attorney needs to petition the court for sale confirmation.  This takes 6 to 8 weeks to be placed on the court calendar and the buyer does not have the house until the court confirmation so spending any money on inspections and appraisal does not make sense but the problem is once the court confirmation is confirmed the buyer does not have any contingencies for inspection or loan and could loose their deposit if there where something wrong with the appraisal, inspection or their loan and escrow doesn't close.  Under the I.A.E.A we don't go to court for confirmation so once we have a signed offer we start our due diligence and can negotiate any appraisal or inspection issues which come up.

4. No Court Confirmation Overbid:  This is big because under the old court process in California after we go through all the red tape and hoops to reach the court confirmation day, our offer could be out bid by another buyer.  The court will ask for any other bidders at the time of court confirmation and if there is another bidder we start a auction and bid up the price until there is one buyer left.  If we loose then all the time and money spent for inspections where wasted.  If we win we may have to pay more than our loan approved and could cause a problem with not having enough loan or having to come out of pocket to adjust.  This process has kept many buyers and investors away.  Under the I.A.E.A we bypass the court confirmation process so once we tie up the property with our offer, it's like a regular sale and we have our protections and control.

5. Limited Paperwork:  Under the I.A.E.A all we need to close a probate is what is called Letters of Testamentary (executor's signing authority/Grant Deed), and the Notice of Proposed Action (heirs agreement on price and terms) and a statement from the estate attorney the estate taxes are in order.  With this our title company can insure title and accept the executors signature on transferring the Grant Deed to the buyer.

These are important reasons to understand the I.A.E.A in California and how this law can make you Six Figures per year as a Probate Real Estate Agent or Investor.

GOT RESIDUALS:  I'm now teaching Agents (Real Estate or Loan) how to add residual income to their income by helping clients save money at the time of closing on services they will need for the new house or for past clients on their current homes.  This is Fantastic and has to do with the Deregulation of Energy.  Ask me for more Info

ESTATE
. http://www.mediafire.com/?gmd10tz4mml

This was my last interview in April I did on Probate Real Estate which you should listen to.  The is a goldmine opportunity not effected by the economy and political influences as estates who need to sell "need to sell".   This has been the core of my real estate production for over 20 years and I have been passing down this information for those who are smart enough to grab it. 

Probate Real Estate can make agents a top producer and for those agents who are struggling in their business a life support program to keep you going.   REO's and SHORT SALES will come to an end over the next few years so start laying the groundwork now for Probates to be your Plan B in your real esate business.  Six Figures are waiting for those who take the time to learn something new.

Investors, you don't know what you don't know about Probate Real Estate and how we avoid the 10% deposits, the 90% rule on price, buying "as is" and most important no Court Sale Confirmation.  We close our Flips or investment holds in 30 days.  You need this info!

SPECIAL NOTE:  DISCOUNT PROGRAM!

I have decided to do my part to help more agents learn this Probate Real Estate niche.  As of now, my course will be only $99 plus S&h   This is a 80% Discount! and my way to help those agents who want to learn this system but don't have the $495.  Please keep in mind this is the longest running probate system available and the only one endorsed by John Reed (Investor Monthly) who has a "Guru" rating system for all systems being offered where you can check out John's research on the author and program. He doesn't recommend many and I'm the only Probate Guy he recommends.  You can link from my site to his.

Take advantage today and go to www.probate-realestate.com to order the course and the new "Economy Helper" price.  Not sure how long I will keep it there as this is a steal.  One of my Probate Affiliates sells his course for $300 and another charges $1000 for an hour where he explains how to work Probate RE.  This is the best deal around as it's the longest running and has 5 different ways to earn from Probate Real Estate either as an Agent, Investor or both.

P.S: My FREE Webinar on HOW TO MAKE RESIDUAL INCOME with every Closed Sale plus your past Client List.  This is truly amazing and I have been doing this as an add on income source for 6 months after a ReMax Franchise Owner/Top Producer brought this to my attention.  I have another agent friend who is the #1 REO Agent in my County earning $500K plus a year who has been doing this for almost a year and is walking away from his 7 days, 12 hour per day RE Business.   This program is going to supplement my retirement income and all I'm doing is helping my clients save money on Home and Biz services they are already using.   GOT RESIDUALS?   Call 510-278-201 to sign up for the FREE Seminar coming in 2-3 weeks.  I'm half full after releasing the info 3 days ago.

Probate Short Sales and Transactional Funding source 

12 Jun 2011, 1:00 am

I will be holding a 1 hour webinar this month (June 2011) on Probate Short Sales and the Transactional Funding to finance 100% of your flips.  This is a great way to earn extra deals other agents aren't attempting (probate short sales) and also how Investors can finance their purchase (flip) with a 3rd party funding source (DF student by the way).  No longer do you have to find investors with the cash and split or take less when you can do the entire deal yourself and your credit isn't an issues.

Probate Short sales is a great way for Agents to earn extra income and investors to find some good wholesale purchases.  Most agents don't understand how to do this and don't even attempt to jump in.   In fact most estate attorneys don't even know they can be paid on insolvent estates with upside down real estate.  Yes, we can have the attorney paid and ALSO the executor.   Just think when you make a call to the attorney or executor and pique their interest they can be paid their fee's on a probate without any equity.  Probate Real Estate opps are every where folks!

Just keep checking the website (probate-realestate.com) for the release of the date and time and ordering information for the Webinar.  Will be only an hour with a Q&A at the end.    I love Probates now it's your turn!

GOT RESIDUAL!  I'm putting together a FREE webinar on how agents can enhance their real estate business while earning residual income when they close a sale.  This is fantastic and I have been building a residual business which is going into my retirement program.   I'm passing this on to active rain members for FREE so take advantage.  This is a Six Figure residual income opportunity for anyone who is willing to put some time in around their busy schedues and it's Perfect! for Real Estate Agents. This webinar will be in a few weeks but after the Probate Short Sale webinar.
