Why Most People Don't Get Rich In Real Estate
This may seem harsh, but please
let me qualify my statement by saying that it is not easy to maintain consistent
motivation. Having sufficient motivation to push through real estate losses,
market downturns, bankruptcies or even years of unfruitful prospecting takes inner
strength. During down times and after particularly difficult lessons in real
estate, it can often feel like the experience was a sign to quit or move in a
different direction. It takes true motivation, self-confidence and some self-delusion
to look at a negative real estate experience, learn from the experience and continue
on. This motivation is intrinsic and it only comes from a goal-driven approach
to make it in a real estate. Quitting can never be an option. To that end, I want to share the following link to
“The Strangest Secret” by Earl Nightingale, in the hopes that it is helpful to
someone.

Adverse Possession: Why It Makes More Sense Than You May Think

Adverse possession is the legal ability to take over the land of another person by openly and notoriously acting like you are the owner over a number of years. The ways that a person in adverse possession can demonstrate open and notorious occupation of land differ from locale to locale. Some examples of open and notorious possession have been constructing a fence, maintaining the lawn, receiving mail and, the most open and notorious of all, paying property taxes.

Lesson From the Pandemic For Residential Landlords
Considered rationally, the need for all of the social safety nets put in place for renters is obvious. The only way to truly survive a global disaster is to band together and implement a series of solutions. Radical measures had to be taken to mitigate the global pandemic. “We’re all in this together,” is not just a motto, it’s a reality. As a society, we are tasked with taking care of our most vulnerable populations, because the repercussions of not doing so are far more expensive than the costs of their protection. In this instance in particular, increased homelessness and/or a wave of relocations due to a rise in home displacement would only serve to exacerbate infection rates around the nation. That said, here are some clear lessons that residential landlords can learn in the wake of this global event.

Real Estate Asset Managers
Although the title Asset Manager has multiple meanings in the world of finance, the Real Estate Asset Manager has a specific task—to manage properties resulting from mortgage default or property acquisition on behalf of a real estate investor, whole loan investor or mortgage servicer. Typically, real estate asset managers maintain a network of vendors, such as contractors, real estate brokers, real estate marketing companies and appraisers in order to maintain, market and sell properties under their management. Resultantly, much of the role of the Real Estate Asset Manager consists of vendor management.

Property Maintenance Laws and Lending
The fight against property blight is a battle that has been waged for many decades. Some areas of the nation, have struggled with abandoned properties and even abandoned neighborhoods since the shrinking of the nation’s industrial sector beginning in the 1970’s. Other areas became intimately acquainted with blight as a result of the wave of foreclosures that took place at the end of the first decade of the century. However it may have arrived, the real estate finance market is certainly now affected by the palpable concern of property blight and has had to adjust to attempts to mitigate its damaging effects.
