I meet a lot of real estate investors all over the country and they always ask me why I created REI TV Show. Well it’s because I lovereal estate investing and connecting with and helping people. It is my passion. Though that is not how the idea to create show came about. This is the true story of how Gary Vaynerchuk inspired the creation of REI TV Show and helped awaken a sleeping giant in me!

 If you did not watch the full video from Gary Vaynerchuk’sCrush IT book release party (above) that talks in depth about the cause everyone is supporting, below is some more information on what this is all about.

Gary Vaynerchuk has teamed up with legendary real estate artist Frank McKinney to support The Caring House Project Foundation. Watch this video for the full details.

The Caring House Project Foundation was founded in 1998 on the premise that stability begins at home. Without the most basic needs of shelter being met, there is often little hope.

Their mission has expanded over the years to include elements now crucial to a self-sufficient existence where the poor and homeless will no longer have to rely on government nor charities to sustain and improve their lives.

CHPF is now creating villages based upon this self-sufficiency, such as the significant undertakings they have underway in Testasse & Gonaives, Haiti. So this is more than charity. And when you donate with Caring House Project, rest assured your money goes to work. You can see and visit the results if you like. You can actually join them on one of  their trips to Haiti to see the difference that you are making.

Frank Mckinney  has never taken a salary, and all of the profits from his books and speaking engagements go 100% to the Caring House Project Foundation. Frank also donates a sugnificant portion of his home building business to Caring House as well. Like Gary he loves people and just wanted to give back. You have to love having  an abundant mindset.

Before this episode is over we have a very special message for you Gary…

I am a Professional Do Not Try This At Home!

Wendy Patton called me Friday night to let me know she was going to be in Philly for the day if I wanted to hang out after she spoke at the 2009 PA Real Estate Investors Wealth Conference. So Saturday I took a drive down to the conference and met up with Wendy after she spoke to the group. We started talking real estate investing and got so wrapped up in the conversation the next thing we knew she was almost going to miss her flight back to Michigan. So we had to make a mad dash to the airport. I even went over 3 speed bumps at 40+MPH (True Story) I was going to shoot another in depth episode for you but we had no time. I decided to shoot a quick episode driving at 65mph in the rain on the Pennsylvania Turnpike one handed! NICE! I can’t wait to see the comments for that one…lol Anyway we were able to get to the airport with 3 minutes to spare to check in and she made it home safe and sound! Check it out and let me know what you think. Leave some comments.

Wendy Patton is one of the coolest people that I know. She is a wonderful teacher and a successful real estate investor. If she comes to your area I would highly recommend you go and check her out. I promise you will not be disappointed. She always gives 110% at her real estate investing trainings.

Oooooo What do We Have Here?

This is a “lost episode”. I was supposed to be #41 but #41 ended up being something else. I wish I could come up with a better story for you but I figured better just stay real. This was recorded back in June at Wendy Patton’s Soft Market Real Estate Investing Boot Camp. It is a lot of fun and all I am saying is it involves a jacuzzi! Enjoy! I look forward to your comments on this one.

Question of the day!

We are getting ready to relaunch a new REITVShow website. Is there anything else you want us to add, change, fix, or anything else? I need your feedback because we want to make the site perfect for you. Leave a comment now and you will be heard. That’s right!

Time is Running OUT!

Wendy Patton

My computer crashed two nights ago and I am still down today. I have most of my stuff backed up and I am hoping my Webmaster Lee can get the rest of my stuff back but I don’t know what is going to happen at this point. I can not find the backed up copy of the intro to the show so we may have to live without it for a few days. It’s all good though! I am going to keep the content coming!

I talk to a lot of real estate investors all over the country. When I do I always ask them if they belong to a Real Estate Investors Association AKA a REIA club or some other type of Real Estate Investors networking group. Shockingly 74% said that they did not consistently go to any type of meeting where Real Estate Investors hang out!

WHAT? 74%? That is crazy! When you are actively investing (or want to) in real estate you need to network all the time. When I asked them what their excuse most of them said that they do not have any real estate investors clubs or networks in our area. Or the real estate investors club in our area sucks. BS I don’t think you are trying hard enough. So we are going to address how you can find a club in your area or create your own for under $20.

When you hang out with other real estate investors there are tons of opportunities just waiting to present themselves. You can find a ton of buyers, private lenders, equity partners, or great friends who have the same interest  just by attending these meetings. Most of the meetings are free or very cheap to attend. You should pick a few really great groups where other real estate investors hang out and commit to going to them consistently every month. Commitment and consistency is the only way that you are going to build relationships and trust so you can get the true value out of the group.

If you just show up to a meeting once in a blue moon and nobody knows who you are, what you do, and you do not want to add any value to the group do us all a favor and just stay home!

Question of the day!

What is the best real estate investor club or networking meeting you have been to?

PLEASE I need you to keep giving me feedback on the site. You will leave a comment now.

If you have any experience doing short sales you know that the #1 complaint about getting short sales done is the amount of time it takes from start to finish. There are many things that you can do to  speed up the short sale process and there are also many things that can slow it down. The last thing you want to do is be part of the problem. You need to be the Super Hero, take control of the situation and make sure that  short sale gets closed asap. This way a family avoids foreclosure and you get rewarded handsomely.

So watch now and find out one of the things YOU definitely do not want to be doing in your short sale business because it is a waste of time. This one time saver alone will cut at least 35 days off your short sale negotiation
