Experts say the secret to successful real estate investing is research, research, research. Review your moves, get good advice and look for clues in sources such as the new Canadian census data. The payoff is two-fold: Ongoing cash flow and capital appreciation.
HERE ARE 10 STEPS TO BECOMING A REAL ESTATE MINI-MOGUL:
- Evaluate your existing exposure.
- Identify what is it you really want from the property.
- Ignore national statistics.
- Is the area’s affordability index in the hot zone (between 25 and 39 per cent)?
- Buyer beware is still the golden rule
- Use an experienced broker.
- Start small.
- Is the location forward looking?
- Is the area attractive to baby boomers?
- Think suburban.

I am looking for info. on real estate investment partnerships. The ones where you pay them so much money for investor training. Once the training is complete they give you a percentage of the home you sell. The only two that I know of are rehab list.com and one in Colorado(not sure of the name). I am told their are about 100 of these firms in the country. Does your magazine have an article that discusses and compares these firms? If not do you know where I can obtain this info? I would appreciate any info./web-sites you could send me.
Thanks,
RB
