			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><!--noadsense--></p>
<p>Sacramento, located in the great Central Valley almost in the middle, between San Francisco and Lake Tahoe, is fast growing and a great place to live. Sacramento is just two hours drive from San Francisco and Lake Tahoe and benefits largely from the proximity to the Bay Area. In spite of being so closely located, the Sacramento real estate market is much more affordable than the San Francisco Bay Area market, and is much less congested. </p>
<p>Sacramento offers a variety of housing options to choose from. Sacramento homes range from low priced condos from the 0s to multi-million dollar homes. Homes are available in a broad variety of styles ranging from the modern to historical landmark homes. One can find houses in many neighborhoods that range from low 200&#8242;s and up, in various bed and bath combinations.</p>
<p>If you are thinking of buying real estate in Sacramento, now is the time. Prices are still very affordable, and have even come down a bit.  As the inventory of Sacramento homes for sale increases, the average days on the market increases as well, giving the Sacramento home buyer more homes to choose from when shopping.</p>
<p>The entry level and lower priced homes are selling more frequently, leading to a decrease in the median home price in Sacramento County. As of March 2006, the Sacramento County median home price was 9,000, up 8.1% from a year earlier.  In general, sellers of higher priced homes that have been sitting on the market for long; especially those that have been priced above 0,000, have been forced to lower their prices.</p>
<p>The Sacramento real estate market is bustling now with the rise in the number of homes on the market. The Sacramento county MLS active listings are at an all-time high. All this is good news for the buyers as it gives them more real estate to choose from. </p>
<p>Currently, the real estate market is neutral but is fast heading towards becoming a buyer&#8217;s market. So, if you are looking forward to buying a Sacramento home, then it&#8217;s a good idea to take advantage of these market conditions today. Sacramento homebuyers now have the advantage of more negotiating power as sellers vie to catch the attention of discerning buyers. </p>

</script></div><p>If you want to buy property for investment and capital growth potential, then you need to consider investing in Costa Rica real estate.</p>
<p>Costa Rican real estate prices have been rising for years, and as more foreign buyers look at investing in Costa Rican real estate, prices look set to soar. Already prices in some areas are booming &#8211; and many properties have doubled in value in just two years!</p>
<p>So, how do you get in on the booming Costa Rican real estate market? &#8211; Let&#8217;s find out:</p>
<p>Location</p>
<p>The key to buying real estate anywhere is location. It&#8217;s a fact that properties worldwide that have coastal views are in high demand &#8211; and this trend is now being seen in the real estate market of Costa Rica.</p>
<p>The Appeal of the Coast</p>
<p>Investors in the Costa Rica real estate market are able to buy properties on a beautiful coastline, in a country of stunning natural beauty.</p>
<p>In Costa Rica, real estate is cheap in comparison with many other countries &#8211; but interest in prime Costa Rica properties is growing &#8211; and investors who get in on the boom now, look set to make huge gains on their investment in the near future.</p>
<p>Getting in Ahead of the Crowd</p>
<p>When buying property, the trick is always to be in ahead of the crowd.</p>
<p>People who took a chance and invested in coastal real estate in California, Hawaii and some parts of Florida were ahead of their time &#8211; and were rewarded with fantastic long-term capital growth. For example, a typical ,000 investment in any of these three states 30 years ago, could have returned over ,000,000 today!</p>
<p>Why Costa Rica?</p>
<p>What happened in California and Hawaii 30 years ago is happening again &#8211; in the Costa Rica property market. A major factor is that Americans are buying second homes in the United States in record numbers &#8211; thereby driving up the cost of vacation homes &#8211; and they&#8217;re now looking elsewhere.</p>
<p>Costa Rica&#8217;s Big Profit Potential</p>
<p>Investors who purchased ,000 properties in the town of Jaco 15 years ago, have seen their property values soar   with some properties now worth as much as 0,000.</p>
<p>Another example of the Costa Rica real estate boom is the Marriot Corporation, which built its crown jewel of Latin America   the Los Suenos Resort, and pre sold 50 condominiums of 2000 square feet for 0,000. The next year Marriot sold another fifty at 0,000. Now this years upper end units are being sold at between 0,000 and 0,000!</p>
<p>The Standard of Life in Costa Rica</p>
<p>Costa Rica real estate prices are being driven higher because the country offers buyers value for money &#8211; and a quality lifestyle.</p>
<p>Here are just some of the benefits:</p>
<p>Easy Access</p>
<p>Costa Rica is only 3 hours flying time from many places in the southern U.S. In addition, many non-stop flights are available to South America and Europe from Costa Rica.</p>
<p>Cost of Living</p>
<p>The cost of living in Costa Rica is inexpensive &#8211; and you can comfortably live on 00 a month. In addition, in most areas, real estate costs far less than it does in the U.S.</p>
<p>Standard of Living</p>
<p>While the cost of living is low, the standard of living is high. Thee are good schools, a variety of leisure facilities and culture, world-class healthcare and a great communications infrastructure.</p>
<p>Buying is Easy</p>
<p>Buying real estate in Costa Rica is easy &#8211; the Costa Rican Government encourages overseas investment, and the result of this is that it&#8217;s easy to buy property, and live or work in Costa Rica &#8211; and red tape is kept to a minimum.</p>
<p>A Country of Stunning Natural Beauty</p>
<p>Costa Rica is a very small country &#8211; just 32,000 square miles, with a total population of just 3.9 million. Costa Rica may be a small country, but it has something for everyone:</p>
<p>. Stunning white sandy beaches</p>
<p>. Mountains</p>
<p>. Rolling hills</p>
<p>. Beautiful lakes</p>
<p>. Stunning rain forests</p>
<p>And much more.</p>
<p>Costa Rica for Living or Investment</p>
<p>Costa Rica real estate is easy to buy and it&#8217;s cheap. Interest in real estate is growing &#8211; as more overseas investors look to buy affordable property in this country of stunning natural beauty with a standard of living that&#8217;s great.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re looking for long-term capital growth then consider Costa Rican real estate now &#8211; and get in on one of the worlds most exciting property markets.</p>

<p>Beth Collingz, PLC International Marketing Director for Pacific Concord Properties Inc&#8217;s Lancaster Brand of Condotels in the Philippines said When the unit owners are not using the condo hotel suite, the unit is put in the managed pool and rented out for them. The buyers have what is considered &#8220;hassle free&#8221; ownership. The condo hotel unit owners also benefit from having a professional onsite management company to handle to marketing, booking of their room and general expertise that they bring to the table. If a problem should arise with their condo hotel unit, the management company will take care of it instead of the owner having to worry about it. This makes the traditional landlord tenant issues a thing of the past.</p>
<p>The condo hotel buyer sees the benefit to owning a vacation property that also has the potential to produce income for them. The typical condo hotel produces higher levels of income than the traditional vacation home (and less headaches), making it all the more appealing to buyers said Collingz</p>
<p>Developments such as the Lancaster Suites Manila Tower I was sold out in less than 18 months and the building is set for completion Summer 2007. Condo hotels are different from traditional condos because they are sold &#8220;turn key&#8221;. Clients initially purchase the standard condo unit and then when the time comes for interior &#8216;fit-out&#8217; they can avail of the in house Condotel package of furniture&#8217;s and furnishings for the unit. This means buyers do not have to worry about hiring a designer or contractor to come in to finish out the unit. Everything is included from linens, dishes, pillows etc</p>
<p>Leading the way in the Metro Manila condo hotel market is Pacific Concord Properties Lancaster Brand of condotel investments. Pricing for condo hotels can range anywhere from ,000&#8242;s up to 0,000 for Penthouse suites. Of course the pricing depends on location, views and types of finishes. </p>
<p>The Lancaster Suites Manila Tower I development has enjoyed great success for its clientele with property appreciation already reaching 100% for its initial buyers.<br />
Lancaster The Atrium, the latest development by PCPI in Shaw Boulevard, Metro Manila, is currently on preconstruction selling and looks set to sell out within the next few months. Lancaster The Atrium offers clients the choice of Studio, One, Two and Three Bedroom suites that all have kitchen facilities as regular residential condo unit. In addition, Lancaster The Atrium, as with the Lancaster Suites Tower I, offers unit owners and guests an extensive range of services and amenities said Collingz</p>

<p>India&#8217;s real estate investment market has grown rapidly over the past 18 months, and following the partial relaxation of FDI regulations in February 2005, the country is now attracting substantial interest from cross border real estate investors. This report reviews the case for real estate investment in India, and assesses the current and potential future opportunities and constraints in this rapidly evolving market. We identify the key growth sectors, and as part of Jones Lang LaSalle&#8217;s World Winning Cities programme we highlight the real estate investment potential of India&#8217;s growing number of &#8220;emerging city winners&#8221;.</p>
<p>The report concludes that: The Indian real estate market offers cross-border investors with an attractive investment opportunity underpinned by a booming and increasingly diversified economy, significant potential for rapid expansion in FDI and a maturing real estate market. It will be those investors who have a long term strategic vision and commitment to India that are likely to be the most successful.</p>
<p>India is reaping the benefits of 15 years of reforms, and its economy is now set for a period of strong and sustainable growth. By 2010 India will be the world&#8217;s third largest economy (measured in purchasing power) and is expected to have a middle class of around 300 million people, larger than the USA. India has a large skilled labour pool, with 2.5 million new graduates added to this pool each year, most of whom are proficient English speakers with strong technical and quantitative skills.</p>
<p>Whilst the Indian real estate market still lacks transparency and liquidity compared to more mature real estate markets, its market structure is changing fast in response to the demands of multi-national occupiers. Jones Lang LaSalle&#8217;s latest Global Real Estate Transparency Index (2006) shows that India has achieved one of<br />
the region&#8217;s most significant improvements in real estate transparency over the past three years. Moreover, the increasing participation of cross-border investors and the emergence of new investment vehicles (including the likely introduction of REITs as early as 2008) will continue to force the pace of structural change over the remainder of the decade.</p>
<p>A significant weight of domestic and global capital is now chasing Indian real estate, but activity is currently being constrained by limited availability of high quality product. Singapore developers and US opportunity funds, which have dominated the cross-border market so far, are focusing on IT parks and residential schemes. They are now being joined by other Asian and European investors, who are currently exploring opportunities. The market will see more investment by domestic and cross border real estate funds.</p>
<p>Suburban offices and the residential sector are likely to offer the greatest opportunities over the short term, and over the medium term opportunities in the retail sector will grow:</p>
<p>Suburban Offices Occupier demand will be supported by a 30%+ annual growth forecast for the IT/ITES sectors. Strong growth in emerging sectors such as telecoms, financial services, pharmaceuticals and biotechnology will also boost demand and broaden the occupier base. State-of-the-art campus developments are expanding rapidly, and sale &#038; leaseback opportunities are emerging.</p>
<p>Residential Favourable demographics, urbanisation, rising incomes and easier access to finance are fuelling strong demand for residential accommodation. India has an acute shortage of housing, with analysts assessing a shortfall in urban areas of over 20 million units.</p>
<p>Retail India has huge potential for retail expansion, and the sector is growing in the region of 10% a year. Organised retailing currently accounts for only 2-3% of the market, but the sector is undergoing structural change, with leading domestic retailers going through rapid growth, format migration and consolidation. Shopping centre construction is high, but most is of poor quality, strata titled and vacancy risk is high. There is huge largely untapped potential for high quality shopping mall development. Liberalisation of FDI norms will create opportunities for cross-border investors and mall developers/operators.</p>
<p>India continues to be saddled with a number of investment risks relating to low liquidity levels, ownership and title issues, short leases and some concerns over long term asset price inflation, added to which are the broader risks of an economy vulnerable to economic shocks, infrastructure strain and environmental stress.</p>
<p>Nonetheless, India is a vast and diverse country, and risks can be reduced by careful location selection:</p>
<p>Tier I citiesMumbai, Delhi and Bangalore will remain the preferred option for many new market entrants, but there are fewer partnering opportunities. Mumbai and Delhi will both offer diverse opportunities; Bangalore is firmly established as a global technology hub and its economy is moving rapidly up the value-chain.</p>
<p>Tier II cities are currently favoured   notably Hyderabad, Chennai and Pune   where there are greater partnering opportunities. These cities are proving to be highly attractive business locations, and are the increasing focus of corporate, retail and residential demand. This has not gone unnoticed by investors, and the yield gap with Tier I cities has narrowed significantly. Prime office yields in Tier II cities are in the range of 10.5-11.5%, compared to 9.5-10% in Tier I cities.</p>
<p>Tier III cities &#8220;First mover&#8221; advantage can still be achieved in some Tier III cities, with office yields in the region of 12%. Kolkata and Ahmedabad, the largest Tier III cities, are displaying impressive economic dynamism. Of the smaller cities, we favour Chandigarh, Kochi,Mangalore,Mysore, Jaipur, Thiruvananthapuram and Bhubaneshwar. Goa offers good potential in the hotel and leisure sectors. However, whilst these cities are attracting increasing occupier interest, the investment markets in these smaller cities are likely to lack liquidity.</p>
<p>Special Economic Zones are likely to be particularly attractive to cross-border players due to tax concessions and one-stop development approval mechanisms.</p>

<p>Negotiating a successful real estate contract, whether in person or on the Internet, requires communication skills and the ability to create an environment of trust and cooperation. As much of consumerism shies away from personal or direct selling, real estate is one product that most predict will hold on strongly to the personal approach. </p>
<p>&#8216;Seeing&#8217; the product and &#8216;trusting&#8217; those who rent it are significant success factors in the industry. Internet marketing standards are of precise importance to real estate because many of the obstacles reflected in these principles are particularly high for this industry. A first principle is that Internet marketing must be calculated to reach the target market. It is not sufficient to set up a nice home page and hope that the right audience will find it, and appreciate the product. </p>
<p>Create Credibility</p>
<p>The bigger the need for credibility, the greater the need to follow the unwritten principles of Internet marketing when presenting your product. Effectively promoting real estate requires the instantaneous formation of trust and comfort: To miss doing this on the Internet will end customer relationships before they can start forming, and creates a bad precedent for future transactions. </p>
<p>Always remember not use intrusive or pushy messages that invite an immediate sale. Let the web visitor be interested in your real estate product by properly, and slowly guiding him or herself through the pertinent information provided, to fully answer their queries and concerns. Patiently, and concretely dealing with an online real estate client &#8216;invites&#8217; interest. </p>
<p>Be Transparent With Customers </p>
<p>It is imperative to provide full information, and clearly explain how the details can be obtained. Do not hide or conceal significant information about your real estate product, even if it tilts towards the negative. The importance of straight talk, honest and factual information will develop the confidence required. </p>
<p>For example, by clearly stating early in your message whether or not you ban pets or if your building is adult-only will narrow your market to authentic potential clients. Respecting the Internet customer by providing &#8216;filtering&#8217; information is polite and makes plain good marketing sense. Busy consumers would be delighted to be able to get useful information faster and more concise. </p>
<p>When dealing with real estate on the Internet, Ensure that you provide some extra information that would be of real use to your guest. Offer an &#8216;apartment or house assessment&#8217; feature that provides a form to enable clients to make comparisons, or an article on the community that would provide relevant useful information and links for new buyers or sellers. </p>
<p>Offer immediate choices, which show the guest that he/she is in charge and is not being tricked or enticed into something flawed, or suspicious. You must explain the choices clearly and provide check boxes if a guest confirmation is needed to &#8216;proceed&#8217; with something that involves a commitment. Do not overwhelm your guest with bright lights and colored animation when your page pops up: You would want to create enough credibility to build some trust as your guest uses your page, and not see a carnival or a fireworks display of flashing lights and colors.</p>

<p>Bob Vila of this old House of the fame says to people &#8221; to him; … to be amiable with its neighbors when to choose a scheme of color.&#8221; Its house is the painting became echo of advising of promoters and constructors of all the country. The color that the painting of their house, says, can affect the value of all the other houses in their neighbourhood. That is one of the reasons for which many associations of house limit marry of the color that the options for the houses in its communities. </p>
<p>Although you can feel that the house the painting is a personal election, is a good dose of sense to the painting restrictions that face some houses. To gaudy purple Halloween orange marries with shutters in the block can indeed do almost impossible for any other person in the district to obtain all the value of its house if they decide to sell. A coherent house scheme of painting colors that took to the property of the goods adds to the call of a district enormously. On some cases, the painting house restrictions is based on something more than proprietor preference. </p>
<p>In the West Side de Nueva England a city, for example, is a district of houses constructed historical period in a similar style Edwardian. The proprietors who buy houses in the community generally Tatnuck to sign an agreement before the purchase that is going to maintain a white color or gray outside with black blinds, green or red &#8211; and that is going to use only the white lights of Christmas in the celebrations. </p>
<p>Then, what colors are good options for the outer painting of the house? According to the magazine Time Realty, the options, in short, white, gray, blue, brown or are bronzed, cream, beige, green, yellow and red. Of them, the overwhelming popular majority house is the painting of white color, with more of the 37 percent of all the houses that is indicated that if were to paint a house, the target is chosen. Although gray it is the second more popular color, the majority of promoters would recommend the painting of its house a pale shade that if it is your election. </p>
<p>The reason? Lighter colors to cheer a house makes and it seem more extensive. Between the other colors, the tones favored tend to be silenced tones, often in &#8216; histórico&#8217; subjects. Painting camera manufacturing like Youngest child Moore and Sherwin Williams its name often the painting colors to take care of that tendency. </p>
<p>Thousands of houses in all the Williamsburg country are colonial guinea fowl of blue or green color. If you want more brilliant accents in your house painting regime, to advise Realtors, the door and blinds are limited you. A door that is a painted friendly party of warm blue or red color, says, the buyers puts of the good humor when entering their house. And it had know better than the boys than sell houses?</p>

<div style="float:left;margin:5px;font-size:80%;"><img alt="private sellers " src="http://www.multi-home.info/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/7dd9b_private_sellers__5232736900_eb5eaa9a88_m.jpg" width="120"/><br/> by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/33672589@N08/5232736900">skytop45</a></div>
<p>If you are pressed for time and tenants, you&#8217;ll want to read this! Property rentals can be very lucrative if you know how to market to your potential guests. Whether it&#8217;s an apartment for rent, villa rental for vacationers, or a golf holiday rental, you can boost profits with these simple marketing strategies.</p>
<p>Maximize Holiday Rental Promotions Online</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t ignore the tremendous power of the Internet. Imagine spending a mere  to  per month to advertise your Spain property rental to folks around the world 24 hours a day, 7 days a week! That&#8217;s exactly what you&#8217;re doing when you start your own website that is focused on property rental. </p>
<p>For only a few dollars per month, you can have an entire website dedicated to promoting your apartment for rent or vacation villa rental. You can put as many photos and updates as you want. There are no limits because you will be the owner! You can even offer online specials and discounts to Internet users. </p>
<p>To make your website really popular with the search engines, include travel articles and city information about nearby areas. For example, if you own a rental property in Marbella, Spain you can write content about that area and include keywords about traveling to Marbella. The same goes for other Spain holiday hot spots including Costa del Sol, Benalmadena, Fuengirola, Mijas, Puerto Banus, and Elviria. Tourists will be searching online for a place to stay. Yours can be the one they choose!</p>
<p>Promote for Events and Recreation</p>
<p>If you have a vacation rental that&#8217;s near a major tourist or sports attraction or where major events take place, then focus some of your marketing around the attraction or the event. For example, if your rental property is near a popular golf course in Spain where major tournaments are held, you can advertise in golf-focused magazines, golf-related stores, or golf web sites. This enables you to reach a targeted audience.</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t Forget Past Guests</p>
<p>A guest who rented from you once may visit again. You will have all the mailing addresses or email of your guests, so send a mailing out occasionally inviting them to stay once more. Offer a &#8220;special&#8221; for past guests only. It&#8217;s much easier to sell to those who already know you than to find new customers.</p>
<p>Include All Features and Benefits in your Promotions</p>
<p>When promoting your rental property, be sure to include all the features and benefits of staying at your rental property. You should list all the items or appliances that are included with their rental for convenience. The more you tell, the more you&#8217;ll sell. Tourists want no surprises when it comes to a place to stay on their trip.</p>
<p>With these promotion techniques, you can reach a broader audience for your vacation rental property and watch your monthly profits grow!</p>

<p>It may be your budget, or the thrill of doing it all yourself, but you are in the market for a diamond in the rough. But just how rough can a house be before a lender decides not to take the risk on a mortgage?</p>
<p>When you negotiate the contract, make sure that you include a provision for a home inspection for structural integrity, defects and potential problems. This isn&#8217;t part of the appraisal, it is a separate detail. A home inspection ascertains the health of the house you are buying. Whether it be a bad roof, leaky plumbing or termite damage, a professional inspector will find all of the major problems. As part of your report, you will receive a list of what needs to be repaired or replaced, the time frame and the potential costs. If you are buying a fixer-upper, you may find that your lender will require an inspection. Some will and some won&#8217;t. But you should insist on one to protect your best interests.</p>
<p>What if you luck out and there are no major problems, just minor ones? Maybe the carpet is worn and needs replacing. Perhaps the deck needs a little work. New paint and fresh air could be all it needs.</p>
<p>Minor, cosmetic concerns are usually not strong enough to scare away lenders, but could lead to negotiations between the buyers and sellers. Unless you&#8217;ve done this before, you may find a good agent is invaluable to negotiate for you.</p>
<p>If you want certain things repaired by the seller, such as the mailbox fixed and the deck painted, make sure it is in the contract. If it is, the seller must perform. You may be able to have the appraisal include the repairs spelled out in the contract. This can help you when getting a mortgage, as lenders will only lend on the lesser of the appraisal or purchase price. Just make sure that it is all in the contract.</p>
<p>Occasionally, your seller may ask to perform the repairs after closing. Many buyers simply ask for a seller&#8217;s concession. Instead of installing a ,000 carpet before closing, the seller agrees to reduce the purchase amount by the ,000 it will cost the buyer to put in new carpeting.</p>
<p>But if you don&#8217;t have that ,000 in hand to buy the carpet, don&#8217;t expect your lender to give it to you. Even if your contract states that the seller will give you back ,000 after closing, don&#8217;t expect it to happen. Cash allowances written into contracts can&#8217;t happen. The lender will not allow the seller to hand over cash at closing. Your real estate agent should steer you away from this and help construct a sales contract that will please both the buyer and the seller. But don&#8217;t expect to come home with ,000. It just won&#8217;t happen.</p>
<p>Buying a fixer-upper can be rewarding. You get to choose how you want to improve the home. But it is a lot of work and definately not for every buyer or lender. Your best bet is to be completely upfront with your lender about your intentions. This will help the transaction to go smoothly.</p>

<p>Investments in commercial real estate is good way of elevating your profits. But these investments have to be intelligent and thorough otherwise you will be risking bankruptcy. A well planned and intelligent investment can make wonders for you. Investors tend to make mistakes while dealing with commercial real estate but these mistakes can be avoided once you are clear about what you are doing. There are some hints and tips which every investor should follow in order to save his precious investments.</p>
<p>The most important thing is that you should be having a clear picture of the market you are dealing with. The knowledge of the market will safeguard your investment from uneven ups and downs. You can analyze the rate of progress of your investment when you know the trends in the market. It is very difficult or almost impossible for a commercial investor to earn profits from a distressed location. You will have to do some research to know the affects on local job market. Job market is found to be slow in the distressed market. So if you find a slow down in the job market in the proposed area, give a second thought about the location. </p>
<p>Before going for investment, an inspection of entire commercial property is recommended. You can hire a professional for this purpose as his cost will be easily earned if he advises you to buy the right property. The property where building is located must also be inspected properly by a professional to avoid any discrepancies. There are certain cases where people go for the property when they find some exiting deal and ignore to investigate about the history of the property.  </p>
<p>Be careful when borrowing for your commercial property. Borrow according to your requirements and which you can pay back. When interest rates are lower than the return on your investments then it is advisable to borrow from the market and invest in commercial property. The earning from the property can be used to payback the interest on the borrowing. Do not forget to analyze the financial market when you have an existing deal. </p>
<p>Always stick to what you know. When you have experience with restaurants you should go for purchasing a restaurant. Purchase what you are acquainted with. Do not absurdly go for deals which you have no experience of.  You can go for some diversified deal if you have someone on your side to guide you during the deal and latter on also. In this case partnering with someone experienced is recommended.  </p>
<p>So if you are intended to make lot of money in the commercial real estate market, be intelligent and thorough, think well before going for anything, follow guidelines from the professionals and experienced people, thoroughly analyze the property and financial market, go for what you are acquainted with, avoid dilemmas and stay within your budget. Remember that investment in real estate can earn you huge profits but if your investment is not backed with thorough research and experience then you can risk bankruptcy.</p>

<div style="float:left;margin:5px;font-size:80%;"><img alt="rent property" src="http://www.multi-home.info/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/6eb98_rent_property_5790376304_d1eef42162_m.jpg" width="120"/><br/> by <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/56103274@N04/5790376304">lucasfoxbcn</a></div>
<p>Buying real estate can start with a look in the newspaper, a visit to a broker, or a search online. These are all good ways to find your next investment property. You&#8217;re looking at the same properties as every other investor, of course, so it&#8217;s not always easy to beat the competition to a great buy.</p>
<p>A better way to find good real estate investments is to look for properties that aren&#8217;t yet for sale, and make an offer. I bought my first home this way. I put an ad in the paper stating what I was looking for, and soon had a call from an old couple that had been thinking about selling. I bought their place at a good price, and they saved a broker&#8217;s commission.</p>
<p>Buying investment real estate that isn&#8217;t for sale starts with a three step search process. First decide what you are looking for. Single family rentals or apartment buildings? Then start looking for properties that fit your criteria. Then contact the owners.</p>
<p>Buying Real Estate From Non-Sellers</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t limit yourself to &#8220;fixer-uppers&#8221; or other &#8220;problem&#8221; properties that seem more likely to have owners willing to sell. Many owners of investment real estate have thought of selling, so you can start with almost any building you like.  You never know beforehand if or why a landlord is ready to call it quits. You find out by asking.</p>
<p>Tact is necessary here. Call the owner and tell him you&#8217;re an investor, not a broker. Let him know that you like what you see. Tell him you can have an offer ready in a week if he&#8217;s interested. If he&#8217;s not interested, thank him politely and hang up, but send him your card or a letter. Many investors have bought from owners that changed their minds.</p>
<p>If there is some interest, explain that you are an investor, so your offer will have to be based on your return on investment. This means you&#8217;ll need to see the books. Specifically, you&#8217;ll need to see the rent roll, listing the units and what they rent for, plus current occupancy, and operating expenses for the last year.</p>
<p>Have a confidentiality agreement ready before you call. Let the owner know that you&#8217;ll sign it and deliver it to him before you see the books. He may not want to let the tenants know he&#8217;s thinking of selling, so inspecting the units may have to wait until you make an offer. Just make an acceptable inspection a contingency in the offer.</p>
<p>Why buy investment properties this way? No competition and no sales commission means you may get a better price. Also, instead of waiting for that perfect property to be listed for sale, you just find it now. Why wait until it&#8217;s for sale before buying real estate?</p>
