The assumption that acquisitions require deep-pockets, is the reason why there are many would-be real estate investing professionals that face discouragement. The myth that “nothing-down purchases” is even believed by some to be impossible.
Firstly, in real estate investing, just like in the stock market, there is readily available public data, which you can chart on in order to determine if the real estate boom or bust is bottoming out. Try to purchase the instrument at the bottom of a cycle which is similar to any other investment so that, you can gain on the rebound. When you do your math’s, take the rental yield cycle into consideration and this is to determine whether the property is worth acquiring since you want to ensure that you have enough monthly rental to cover your mortgage installments even in the leanest of rental periods.
For the public, the Nothing Down era was a startling eye-opener. Very few people were aware of Allen’s predecessors, like Nick Nickerson, Al Lowry and Mark Haroldsen who wrote books on real estate investing requiring no money. Furthermore, Allen popularized the notion, and it was a strong public draw for his real estate investing seminars.
There are some of Allen’s convention speakers that were ultimately revealed as “con men,” and some bellied up. There was bankruptcy for Robert Allen himself in the year 1996. The public generally concluded that, Allen was probably a fraud, and that real estate investing was impossible without deep-pockets.
Many investors who were using “Zero Money Down” techniques were interviewed, while the Wall St.Journal got wind of the Nothing Down Real Estate Investing Movement. The business editor of the Wall St.Journal do these: first, he interviewed me repeatedly and others who knew of my real estate investing, and second, he featured me in an editorial as one of the most successful investors in the nation who had purchased millions of dollars in rental property without any money.
Pertinent to the conclusion of how to buy real estate properties with limited funds are the previous unfolding events.
This proved that properties could be acquired without cash or credit to the tune of $10 million in real estate investments during my first 4 years. I used a $10 bill in the acquisition of many of my properties.
Through negotiations with motivated sellers, purchases from FSBOs also known as the For Sale By Owners, were possible. I was able to buy millions of dollars in real estate properties without cash or credit and this is by learning acquisition skills that required no money down.
The real estate properties listed by real estate agents minimally require a down payment that covers the agent’s listing fee. These listed properties were no more valuable than the FSBO properties, but the agent fees demanded cash upon acquisition. In the intervening years since the 1980s, I have purchased some agent-listed properties, but my target acquisition still continues to be FSBO real estate property from a motivated seller.
