Product Description:
According to the National Association of Realtors, 86% of new real estate agents don't make it past their first year. The majority give up due to frustration and the overwhelming start-up costs involved in the industry. But there is an untapped resource that will help agents take their careers to new heights-the For-Sale-By-Owner (FSBO) listing. Many homeowners try to sell their home, without an agent, believing that they can find a buyer just as quickly and avoid paying a commission. But often, nothing can be further from the truth. Author John Maloof has built a stellar career by farming FSBOs. He made six figures his first year as a real estate agent using his prospecting plan. Now, in The Real Estate Agent's Guide to FSBOs, he shows other agents how they can do the same. Using these proven techniques, agents will learn how to: • find FSBOs • approach a prospect • make a listing presentation that will convince even the most reluctant homeowner • handle rejections • formulate a marketing plan • service listings • build a referral base • stage open houses • close the sale Complete with Internet resources and a sample resume and log sheet, this is the one book that will show new agents and experienced Realtors alike how to make more money than they ever thought possible. |

In the real estate industry, as in most sales professions, prospecting is a dirty word. Far too many people enter the field of Real Estate believing they can wait for the phone to ring and earn a great living. Unfortunately, many new agents set themselves up for failure by this approach to the business.
A real estate professional's goal is to list and sell real estate. One of the primary keys to being successful is to identify those people who truly want or need to move, and find a way to meet with them. This concept of identifying and targeting likely buyers and sellers is called prospecting, and it is a process, not an event.
This book is the ultimate game plan for prospecting. It carefully outlines methods to select likely groups of prospects, how to contact those target groups, whta to offer them, and how best to follow up. |

The Secret Millionaire Maker… Buying Tax Lien Certificates In ILLINOIS!
The wealthy have been doing this for years. Now is the time for you to take advantage of investing in Tax Lien Certificates. This is a golden opportunity with the highest return on investment you will ever find, and the government guarantees it!!
How would you like to earn 16% - 18% - 24% up to 50% on your investment? The government regardless of what happens with the stock market, inflation, recession or bank interest rates guarantees these high rates.
This secret is referred to as the millionaire maker, and even now very few people know how or capitalize on their existence. It's called a Tax Lien Certificate. In hundreds of counties throughout the United States, local governments have millions of dollars in outstanding and overdue property taxes. Each year these counties place Liens on these properties and offer them for sale thru the mail, at auctions, or right online so you can buy them ANYTIME right from the privacy of your own home!!
Local governments use property tax to fund the daily services of police, fire department, welfare, and teachers. Just imagine if the revenue for these projects stopped. This is why local governments will create and sell tax lien certificates to investors like you and me. The lien is secured by the real estate property it is attached to. To put it to you in plain terms, you will be paying someone else's property tax. I know what you're thinking. Why would I want to do that? Because the lien is at a fixed interest rate, and you win regardless of whether the property owner pays or not.
Statistics show that 97% of tax lien certificates pay off within two years. The property owner pays his taxes at a huge interest rate, and that interest plus the money you invested all goes to you. The longer the owner leaves his taxes unpaid, the larger your pay off becomes. If the owner does not pay his taxes, then the property becomes yours free and clear. You now have the options of selling, renting or living in the property. It is truly a win - win situation.
Tax Lien Certificates will be the safest, easiest and maybe the most profitable investment you will ever make. You can get started with as little as $15 in some cases. This is a true millionaire maker. Why have you not heard of this before? Simple, stockbrokers and bankers are not allowed to make commissions on them, so they don't advertise them. But, banks and credit unions invest their surplus money in Tax Lien Certificates. Case in point; Ever buy a CD from your local bank and rant and rave about the 4% interest rate your making by letting them hold onto your money for 18 months? Well, guess what the banks do with the money you lend them? That’s right! They use it and buy tax lien certificates all over the U.S. Making 16-50% interest while you collect the 4% from them! STOP letting the banks make YOUR money!! This guide will educate and inform you step by step on buying tax liens in your area today!!
Let me give you a scenario. This happened to an investor I know. He invested $3000 in Tax Lien Certificates. The owner never paid back the tax lien within the allotted amount of time (redemption period) and the property became his. It was in need of serious repairs and he was not interested in fixing it up. He simply put the property on the market for 50% of its true value, and sold it for $35,000 cash. Not bad for a $3000 investment. If you can find another guaranteed investment like this, please let me know immediately.
The wealthy have been doing this for years. Now is the time for you to take advantage of investing in Tax Lien Certificates. This is a golden opportunity with the highest return on investment you will ever find, and the government guarantees it. All included in our state specific guide WITH County contact info for EVERY County in the state!
