Traditional Real Estate Investing
For decades of my life, I’ve followed a very common way of buying investment property. I would purchase commercial real estate and slowly, methodically raise the rental prices, which simultaneously gave the property more value.
It was a beautiful business because the government allowed depreciation of the building and the building was rising in value. This created massive tax write-offs, very profitable.
What I didn’t know when I started was who was going to manage thousands of apartments and office building tenants.

Management of Traditional Real Estate
Properties in different states and different cities required different management teams with dozens of people involved. Traveling from the home office to properties requires substantial air fares and rental car payments.
Additionally, the federal government requires certain rules must be followed. There is a ton of government involvement, and this requires hundreds of hours of lost production.
Commercial real estate generally improves in value along with the inflation. However, management doesn’t always improve at the same rate.

Alternative Real Estate Investing
Why invest in alternative investments? Thank goodness there are alternatives. The alternative I chose requires much less or little management and is very appealing from a profit standpoint.
Rather than hundreds of employees, an alternative investment that you can do from your kitchen table or a small office using a computer and financial skills makes sense to many, especially if you can create passive income.
The alternative I’m about to suggest is perfect for entrepreneurs. The business helps the local government, and most of all, it helps the entrepreneur.
This is not traditional real estate. However, this little-known but highly lucrative alternative real estate investment involves many opportunities in over 3,000 counties across the United States.
The majority of this alternative investment can be acquired, managed and profited from sitting at home working on your computer and following defined proven and tested processes.
Everything is legal and ethical and to your advantage and the advantage of the people you do business with.

Becoming an Entrepreneur
Why are you interested in alternative assets? Or why should you be? Let’s begin with this short encouraging statement. You don’t know what you don’t know. That’s where we’re going to start.
Ask yourself this question. Whom are you listening to? Look at who’s giving you guidance. It doesn’t take long to learn that success leaves clues, a track record. People who succeed are not lucky; they are doing something differently than all the rest.
There are very few entrepreneurs who start with little or nothing and become financially free. However, when they do, it’s very possible to follow in their footsteps. That’s what training is all about.
It’s not difficult if you’ll learn from the extraordinary individuals that have created success and continue to succeed and practice.
One of the benefits of alternative investments is that you can find something outside-the-box that’s incredibly profitable.

This Is Not a Get-Rich-Quick Scheme
There are dozens of attractive investments. I’m not qualified to teach or guide you on dozens of money-making opportunities. I chose alternative real estate and can reveal from my experience how to make money in a large market that has been available for 200 years.
I must warn you in advance, it’s a marathon, not a sprint. I can confidently say there is a ton of money to be earned, and you can expect abundance in all states and counties in the United States.
Your investment must be in skills. If you have a computer and some savings, you can get started. You can use the same methods the successful people are using. It’s definitely not a get rich quick program.
Why invest in alternative investments? Especially, this one in particular? I’ll give you a little background, then I’ll give you the money stuff.
You’ll see an example of a first-time investor earning a $30,000 profit from a very small investment, and once you learn the process, you can rinse and repeat as often as you want.

Tax Defaulted Property Investing
In over 3,000 counties and 1400 municipal taxing districts, local governments will conduct real property tax defaulted auctions.
What’s happening is property owners have failed to pay property taxes. If the taxes are uncollectible, the treasurer will seize the property and resell the it at a public auction where anyone can attend and bid.
To assure that the property can be resold, the county will announce an auction at a very low price. For example, the delinquent back taxes could amount to 10 or 15 cents on the dollar.

Buying Bargain Real Estate
My point is many properties are sold at auction for 60%, 70%, or 80% or more discounts below their assessed value.
The difference between the auction purchase price and the market value is the potential profit for the entrepreneur purchaser.
For example, a property valued at $200,000 by the tax collector may only have a starting bid of $20,000.

Buy Low and Sell Low
For decades, I’ve used a Walmart discount example and selling process. The formula is very easy. Buy it low at the auction, sell it low and earn a profit. This is contrary to most real estate seminars.
Here’s an example.
A $200,000 property has a starting bid of 10 cents on the dollar at the auction. Let’s assume you bid 20 cents on the dollar which is $40,000. Your potential profit or margin is the difference between the tax assessed value of $200,000 and the $40,000 purchase price.

Seller Financing
Now, let’s sell the property to a needy person with a family and call this person a credit-challenged client with a low FICO score. Banks and other traditional lenders reject these clients.
This is a market filled with divorcees, past bankruptcies, and people who have lost employment. The market is large. The buyer needs financing, and the seller enjoys profits on financing.
Use a buy low sell low strategy.

Installment Sale
Advertise on Craigslist, eBay, Facebook Marketplace, Zillow, Trulia, the Multiple Listing Service, and put simple signs on the sidewalk: Installment sale $140,000.
The seller accepts a down payment of $10,000 and requires monthly payments of $1,200. This process gives you, the seller, a competitive advantage because you’re 30% below market price. Remember, the purchase price was only $40,000.
If you are willing to accept a lower than market price, lower than market down payment and a quick credit approval, you are in business.
