Buy-and-Hold or Fix-and-Flip…What’s the Right Investment for You?

UPDATED Leave a comment

When it comes to real estate investing, is it better to buy-and-hold or fix-and-flip? The answer depends on your investment goals, your personal preferences, and your local market. Let鈥檚 looks at each strategy and figure out which is the better fit for you.

What is Buy-and-Hold?

Buy-and-hold is when you purchase an investment property for the long-term. Most investors start with a single-family home or small multi-family property (2-4 units).

You simply find a property where the rent will exceed all your expenses (as a general rule of thumb, investors like to see the monthly rent be more than 1% of the purchase price), then find reliable renters for the property.

The rents collected will pay down your mortgage debt, pay all your investment-related expenses (like taxes, insurance, and maintenance), and put money in your pocket every month for decades to come!

Why You Should Hire a Real Estate Coach

UPDATED Leave a comment

Originally published on

Real estate coaches provide objective business consulting and can even provide the catalyst for personal transformations. But who needs a coach and what鈥檚 the best way to select one?

An experienced real estate agent with a solid clientele and a steady stream of income might ask,聽鈥淲hy would I want to hire a real estate coach?鈥�

Fair point. With reputable programs starting at around $500 per month and a significant time commitment, coaching is neither cheap nor always convenient. Perhaps most challenging, coaching involves giving someone else permission to scrutinize every aspect of an agent鈥檚 life and business practices.

However, both newcomers and top-earning agents who find the right coach agree that the increased business and, in some cases, the personal transformations they gain more than pay for the investment. Here鈥檚 why.

Best Ways to Stay Connected to Your Referrals

UPDATED Leave a comment

After a successful sale, it鈥檚 always a good idea to keep in contact with that client. But when is the best time to follow-up and when does your outreach become too much or not enough? Real estate agents grow a large portion of their business from existing clients giving referrals, whether it鈥檚 a friend telling a friend or a client posting your name on social media next to their new home. It can be tricky, but here are a few tips on how you can keep in contact with your referral network without becoming a pushy salesperson.

Keep it relevant

No one likes letters, postcards or emails that are not going to help or inform them in any way. Don鈥檛 just send something to get your name in front of them, send material that the consumer will open and use. Price updates, housing trends or holiday greetings are all examples of emails or mailings that your client can appreciate and/or find useful.
