  • Real Estate Investing Guide: Painting A Poopy Life
    By ericmedem on June 11th, 2009 | No Comments Comments

    Can you remember some of those early paintings you did in elementary school? Perhaps you have kids of your own and now you’ve got those glorious masterpieces pasted up all over your fridge.

    5painting

    As we grow older many of us humans begin living our lives as if it were one big painting…Sounds like a good thing on the surface, but I’ll tell you it sucks…No, it sucks in a way different way than that first painting of your family that looked more like an ink blot test.


    Why does living your life like a painting suck? Before I answer that, let’s talk about the two different ways of painting your life’s picture. One of them leads to a happy and fulfilling life and the other, well not so much.


    The doctor recommended (I’m not a doctor, I just play one on the internet) life painting is when you decide to make everyday a unique master piece. When instead of dragging yesterdays painting into today, you just start a new painting every morning when you step out of bed. If you painted a watermelon yesterday, maybe you’ll decide to paint a Mona Lisa today…Though I would recommend the dogs playing cards painting to just about anyone.


    Now let’s talk about the painting that most of us do….The lifelong “Masterpiece”, where we work on creating one great painting for our entire lives, rather than attempting to create a new one each day…If you haven’t realized it yet, this is the sucky one.


    Why? Remember when you were 5 and poop was the funniest thing since sliced bread? (I’m 33 and I have to confess poop is still pretty funny)….

    real_estate_investing_courses


    Anyway, back to my point. What if when you were 5 you decided to start painting a big steaming pile of poop? Looking at it from the outside it seems pretty obvious, it would be waaaay smarter to simply grab a new canvas and start painting something new. But we don’t…..


    Instead since were clever humans, we wake up everyday and go back to work on yesterdays painting. Silently thinking to ourselves “Well it looks like yesterday was shit, today’s going to be shit too”, and off we go continuing our “Master-Piece-Of Shit”.


    What’s the lesson in this? Just because yesterday was shit (Substitute your best rationalization story here), doesn’t mean that today has to be shit as well.


    Here are soem real life examples…Though I’ve left some names out to minimize risk to the innocent….Do any of these sound familiar?

    =============================

    Lifes Painting #1 My dad used to tell me I was stupid. Now I’m going to keep acting stupid the rest of my life while I blame him…..

    Eric says: As if somehow blaming your dad is ever going to make your life any better. Get over it dude, your dad sucked. Your dad probably told you that you were stupid because he felt like a dipshit himself….Now let’s all stop being dipshits and grab a new canvas and start painting $$$$


    Lifes Painting #2 I’ve never done any investing before it sounds risky. I think I’ll be better off avoiding the risk and staying a broke duchebag for the rest of my life.

    Eric says: Listen idiot, wanna know what risky is?….Risky is, thinking you’ll get to the end of your ½ lived life and fooling yourself into believing you’ll be satisfied when you look back at what “Could have been” but never was.


    Lifes Painting #3 Waaaaaa…..I’m broke, I just don’t have the money to get started (Insert money making tactic of your choice here). I’m going to wait till I have money, then I’ll start….Like that’ll ever happen.

    Eric says: How’s that like your life dummy? Of course your broke, you’ve always been broke, it’s your story right? Keep painting this picture for yourself and what a “Wonderful life it’ll be”. No, money isn’t everything, but it makes everything a bit easier.


    Okay, I’ll spare you the misery. I think you get the picture. And the picture is: “Just because everyday till today life’s been shit….Doesn’t mean tomorrow can’t smell like roses”….It’s your choice.

    Till Next Time,

  • Real Estate Investing 101: Bruce Lee Style
    By ericmedem on May 30th, 2009 | No Comments Comments

    I thought I would share this excellent Bruce Lee Video with you.  Nothing to do with real estate investing…But none the less very inspiring.

    I take the concept of not using any one specific fighting style as a good metaphor for not getting stuck on any one investing tactic…And, instead doing what works….

    When I was putting together my Ultimate Wholesaling System I tried to include numerous exit strategies that can be done No money down rather than just assigning contracts as so many guru’s choose to do.

  • Real Estate Investing Success Tips 2009….(Sorry To Offend)
    By ericmedem on April 20th, 2009 | No Comments Comments

    Hey, Eric here.

    Here are my rules for real estate success in 2009…Nothing to sell…


    1. Minimize negative hype about “How bad things are”
    -Give me a frickin break. Our money cannot just vanish…All it’s doing is changing hands.

    If put 10 dimes in a jar and shake up the jar, where once there may have been 3 dimes, after shaking there may be none…..But the money is still in the jar!

    2. Adapt to the environment- Right now desperate sellers are a dime a dozen…Buyers are where the money’s at….So use my reverse MLS search and find buyers….It’s not rocket science….I can guarantee you’ll have buyers in 7 days or less!

    3. Money loves action- Do me a favor….I promise it will just take a second. Go to your kitchen and grab a spoon.

    ***WICKED EXPERIMENT***

    Get your spoon

    1. Take the spoon and set it in the middle of your dining room table…..

    2. Now try to move the spoon by THINKING about moving it…

    3. Give it 30 minutes…Think hard!

    4. Now stand up and put the spoon back in the drawer.

    You may have noticed….Unless your some sort of psychic freak….The spoon didn’t move when you tried to “THINK” it into moving.

    I know for a fact you DIDN’T last 30 minutes trying to “THINK” the spoon into moving.

    I bet you didn’t even try…..Why waste your time right?

    So why in the heck have you been trying to:

    “Think about real estate investing

    “Think about getting a better job”

    “Think about being a better parent”

    “Think about being a better spouse”

    “Think about going to the gym”

    You wouldn’t spend 10 seconds trying to “THINK” a spoon into moving….But you’ve wasted a lifetime “THINKING” about doing things that will change your life….

    This was supposed to be a way longer list of tips….But, honestly I’m already too pissed off to continue…..STOP THINKING, START DOING……

    I don’t care if you buy my Wholesaling stuff….It’s Sunday, I have a ham in the oven…A wife I love…..And money in the bank……It won’t matter if you ever buy anything from me….

    What is important to me, is to see you Get up off your “Thinking” and START DOING SOMETHING WORTHWHILE…..

    Are you fat and unhealthy? Shut your mouth and go for a walk….It’s not rocket science.

    Are you broke and ugly….Educate yourself and get some surgery…If you can’t afford to educate yourself then walk your ugly self to the library and read.

    Are you unhappy at your job, so you’ve been a punk to your family…..Educate yourself…Get a job you like…..And pay attention to the only  thing good in your life (YOUR FAMILY)

    No…. none of these changes will happen overnight….But they sure as hell won’t happen by “THINKING” about doing them.

    Sorry if this was harsh, rude, or made you sad…..It was written with the best intentions…..

    GOD DIDN”T INTEND FOR YOU TO BE A PAPERWEIGHT….

    Thanks,
    Eric

    P.S I will continue this later…It was supposed to be much longer…

    Real Estate Investing Guide: Real Estate Wholesaling

    Real Estate Investing Guide

    Isn’t it interesting that statistics show that 94% of you reading this will never get beyond the point of reading about real estate investing?

    Do you just like reading about real estate investing? To give you the benefit of the doubt, maybe you got one of those emails that says “If you read these real estate articles Bill Gates is going to send you 1 Billion dollars as a test for Microsoft”.

    One of the things that has been perplexing me lately is how many people “Think about real estate investing”. As if thinking about investing is ever going to allow for you to retire and enjoy your golden years the way God has planned for you. If I had a dime for every person over 50 who told me they “Have been ‘thinking’ about investing”, I would have already retired myself.

    What is it about this whole “Thinking” concept? My best guess is that instead of thinking about how great life will be as a result of investing, people are thinking of all that could go wrong. The scariest and most overlooked thought, is that most of their imagined worst case scenarios, don’t hold a candle to the worst case scenario of not investing in the first place….

    Right now in my home town of Grand Rapids, the opportunities for investment are limitless.  Right now much of the Grand Rapids Real estate is selling at a 20 year low….Yet virtually no one is taking advantage the insane prices that we are seeing.

    For example, one of the 3 Grand Rapids Foreclosures that I sold this week breaks down like this

    Real Estate Investing Course Reviews

    In 2002 This home sold for $94,117

    We paid $20,000

    Take a look at this payment breakdown….

    Estimated Rents on this 2 unit are $1100/month

    Total Payment with NO MONEY DOWN is $126.41

    $973.00 Gross Cashflow
    $50.00 Insurance
    - $125.00 Taxes

    =$798.00 Cash per month

    The scary thing is that deals like these are not at all uncommon.  At last count there were 58 two units in our market priced under $20k….
