Related Sites American Association of Small Property Owners Rental Property Reporter National Real Estate Investors Association The Basics How to find good investment property advertisement If you're cut out for it, life as a landlord can be quite profitable. But success isn't assured. Here's what you need to know before diving in. By Liz Pulliam Weston The idea of owning rental real estate seems to be gaining popularity as investors tire of the swoops and swoons of the stock market. As I pointed out in a separate column , not everyone has what it takes to be a landlord. But those who do may find rentals to be a good way to build wealth. Once youve made the decision to buy rental property, your real work begins. Finding a profitable rental property usually takes time, connections and plenty of research. Heres what you need to know to get started: Start investing with $100. Explore our new ETF center. Know your time horizon As with any other investment, you should have a good idea how long you plan to own a rental property before you buy it, says Robert Cain, publisher of the Rental Property Reporter newsletter. The longer you plan to own the property, the more youll probably need to invest in maintenance, repairs and improvements, Cain said. If youre keeping it for 20 years, at some point youre going to be putting a new roof on that property. Youre going to be putting in new appliances and doing some major repairs, Cain said. If youre only planning to own a property for five years, by contrast, youll probably want to avoid making any major improvements unless youre sure you can recoup the cost with a higher sale price. You also may face more investment risk with a shorter time horizon. Although your rental will almost certainly appreciate over 20 years, it could easily lose value in the next five, particularly if youre buying in an overheated market. Youll need a bigger potential annual return to make up for that risk. For many small investors, long-term ownership makes the most sense, said Pat Callahan, an attorney, landlord and founder of the American Association of Small Property Owners. Youll have plenty of time to ride out any swings in the market, and rental income can make a nice supplement to your day job. Find enough rental properties, and being a landlord may become your day job. Develop a network Experienced landlords find their properties in a variety of ways. Some hunt for foreclosures, making friends with city hall clerks or bank employees who know which properties are about to be sold. Some run ads in local newspapers. Others work with real estate agents who keep their eyes peeled for possible buys. Several landlords recommended joining a local landlord or property owner's association to make contacts. Callahans Web site offers links to local groups, as does the National Real Estate Investors Association. (See the links at left under "Related Sites.") When you begin to own rentals, all the other investors start coming out of the woodwork, said Sean Hoppe, a landlord in Pottsville, Pa., who owns 11 properties. Through investor meetings, networking, etc., I can find out what is for sale. (Hoppe, by the way, is 25 and hopes to retire from his job as a computer consultant in three years.) You also can try approaching landlords directly to see if theyre willing to sell, by calling the numbers listed on rental ads in the classifieds, by cruising neighborhoods looking for for rent signs or by talking to any landlords you know personally. Thats how Bob, who asked that his last name not be used, bought his rental property near Albany, N.Y. The landlord of the three-unit building where Bob had rented for 15 years was tired of the hassles and ready to sell. We love (the area) and jumped at the chance to buy it, Bob said. So far, Bob and his wife have been pleased with their purchase. They raised rents and required security deposits, which caused the propertys less desirable tenants to leave. He also has a backup plan for the building in case he starts to feel like the prior owner. If being a landlord got to be too big a hassle, Bob said, we would just get rid of the tenants and make it our own place. Get your finances in shape The better your credit, and the less credit card and other consumer debt you have, the better your prospects for getting a decent loan, Callahan said. Lenders usually require bigger down payments, higher interest rates and generally stronger finances when youre buying rental property. Thats because they know people are more likely to default on investment property than they are on their own homes. Landlords say it also pays to have a substantial cash reserve left over after buying a property. This can help pay for unexpected repairs and vacancies. Although there are few rules of thumb, setting aside at least one months rent for each unit is a good start. CPA Paul Berning suggests having a line of credit, secured either by the property or your own home, to cover larger costs. You also should make sure you can save enough for retirement and other goals before investing in rental real estate. While rental income can supplement your retirement kitty, most people shouldnt count on it to replace other investments or allow themselves to be entirely exposed to the whims of the local real estate market. Rents and property values can fall as well as rise, and those who are adequately diversified with investments in stocks, bonds and cash will be better able to endure the bad times as well as the good. Avoid overpaying As one experienced landlord put it: You make your profit when you buy a property, not when you sell it. Pay too much, and youll never recoup as much as you could have had you driven a better bargain. The rental real estate market is generally tougher on investors who overpay than on homeowners who do the same thing, several landlords said. While a home is often an emotional purchase, which can lead to I must have it! offers and bidding wars, most landlords look strictly at the numbers to see if their investments will pay off. If you pay too much for a rental, you cant count on a greater fool coming along later to bail you out. Not overpaying can be tough in a hot market, however. Apartments in New York, for example, currently sell at a 60% premium over their inherent value. In other words, theyre selling for much more than the income streams the apartments generate, according to Reis, a national real estate research firm. In San Francisco and Los Angeles, the premium is 10%. Some landlords use formulas, such as not paying more than six to eight times the rents they expect to make the first year. Others try to estimate what the property could be worth after needed repairs and upgrades are made, and they dont pay more than 70% of that price, less the cost of those repairs, CPA Berning said. Every real estate market is different, however, and these formulas may not work in your area. Whats key is to make sure your rental income will cover your out-of-pocket costs, Berning said. That includes the mortgage payment on the property, as well as taxes, insurance, maintenance, repairs and a vacancy rate of around 5%. (If you have five units, for example, you should expect at least one unit to be empty three months each year. Heres the math: 5 units times 12 months equals 60; 60 times .05 is 3.) If you can at least break even, youll be able to profit from any price appreciation as well as from tax breaks available to rental property. Cains Web site sells $55 software to help you make these calculations (see link at left). When crunching the numbers, you should know that theres a big difference in how repairs and improvements are treated for tax purposes. You can typically deduct the cost of a repair, such as patching a roof or fixing a leaking pipe, on your tax return for the year in which the repair is made, Berning said. Replace that roof or those pipes, however, and its typically considered an improvement, which means the cost cant be deducted. Instead, its added to the amount you paid for the property to determine your tax basis when you sell. The higher the basis, the lower your taxable profit. But if you have to wait 20 years after making a major improvement to recoup any of the cost for tax purposes, you may think twice about buying a property that needs a lot of upfront work, Berning said. To better estimate your costs, get a thorough inspection before you buy a property. Some landlords have favorite electricians, plumbers and contractors that they send to any prospective property, promising them that they can do any repair work they find. Others use professional inspectors they trust. Longtime landlords say all this work pays off in profitable properties that build their net worth while providing a steady income stream. Callahan, whose family started investing in rental real estate in the 1940s, says its a way of life she recommends. It doesnt matter if youre a professional or a laborer, Callahan said. Its the equal-opportunity wealth builder.

Foreclosure Property

Foreclosures Real Estate Website Directory [ Home ] [ Add a Website ] [ Modify a Website ] [ New ] [ Top Rated ] [ Email Updates ] [ Search ] Advanced search MAIN MENU TOP 100 SITES HOMES FOR SALE FOR REALTORS ADD YOUR WEBSITE JOIN THE TOP 100 LIST POST YOUR LISTINGS CONTACT SUPPORT ADVERTISING WEBMASTER Foreclosures Tips on buying a Foreclosure There are three types of foreclosure opportunities to look for. Pre-foreclosures, which are in the period before the foreclosure sale. Foreclosures, which exist when the property is taken back by the lender and sold at public sales. REOs, which exist when the lender ends up with the foreclosed property in it's own inventory after the public sale. How do I find the owners and borrowers? Pre-foreclosure Properties – You can approach the owner or borrower up until the time when the property actually is sold through foreclosure proceedings. If the owner or borrower isn’t living in the property, use one or more of these methods to hunt them down: * Don't be shy! KNOCK ON THE DOOR! - Simply be polite and see if you can gather information directly from the homeowner or renter. If you can get in the door you stand a much better chance of making an offer or finding out where the owner is. You are offering folks a way out of foreclosure -and possibly a more lenient approach than the bank might take to when they must vacate- if you buy the home. * By Mail – Send a letter to the owner/borrower at the property address or leave a letter for the owner/borrower at the property address (if you put it inside a mailbox, the USPS requires that you put a first-class stamp on it). In the letter, explain that you understand the property is going into foreclosure, and that you have some options so the owner/borrower can avoid credit problems, or possibly even retain ownership. * Use Public Records – If the owner/borrower doesn’t live in the property, check with the county courthouse. They’ll have the owner/borrower’s name on record. * Ask Neighbors – If the property is vacant, talk with neighbors to see if anyone knows how to reach the owner/borrower. Be sure to tell them you’ve got information to help the owner/borrower. * Open the Telephone Book – If you still can’t locate the owner/borrower, try calling people who have the same last name. You might happen upon a relative. Foreclosure Properties – You’ll find foreclosed properties at a public sales. The day, date, time and place is published in the newspaper. The usual location for foreclosure sales is at the county courthouse, and sometimes, they’re conducted on the courthouse steps. REOs – After the foreclosure proceedings, the lender may end up with the property if no one bids more than the lender’s bid, which is equal to the loan balance. At this point, the property is referred to as an REO or “real estate owned” (by the lender) property. REOs are great investment opportunities.

Reviews Synopsis This guide to buying a property in Spain offers first-hand advice on where to stay, dealing with estate agents and builders and the types of properties available. It covers building your own home, renovating a ruin, and renting a cosy cottage. From the Author 'After 38 years of corporate life, work was giving little satisfaction. A change was necessary. I wanted to stop work but knew I couldn't simply retire and live happily in the UK. I still needed a challenge. Finally I decided to move to Spain. Why? Because Spain is relatively close to home, it has an excellent climate and the cost of living is lower than in Northern Europe. During my life I've made some good and bad decisions - but coming to Spain was one of the best I've made. I now live in a town house, on the edge of a Spanish village. The back door opens onto a path leading to the mountains. The front bedroom window overlooks the Med only a few kilometres away. The neighbours are all Spanish. It doesn't get much better than that.'

Don't waste your time or money , October 6, 2005 Reviewer: feeMag from Dublin, Ireland I can see how this guy managed to buy a house in Spain. He wrote a book that is padded to the hilt with useless information fo fund it. If you want to know what the weather or the people in Spain are like then you can read about it in this book. The amount of helpful information about buying property in Spain can be found in about 2 pages, information that you would probably find online. Seriously don't waste your money by buying this book, save it for your house in Spain.

None of the other books I considered explain the legal documents involved in buying a Spanish property quite as clearly. The sample documents helped me to understand what was asked of me. As somebody who has never dealt with Spanish solicitors and agents before, I was glad to get a low-down on what they do and what to look out for from this book. A really useful book; well done, Harry King! Was this review helpful to you? 18 of 23 people found the following review helpful: Look elsewhere!! , June 4, 2003 Reviewer: Mr N Batcheler from London United Kingdom If you've never been to Spain before, know absolutely nothing about the country, and don't perhaps possess at least a minimal ammount of common sense then you might, just might, find something in this book of some use. Otherwise I would urge you not to waste your time or money by buying this book - I made the mistake so you don't have to! The style of writing is amateurish to say the least, the layout has obviously been designed by someone that's just bought some new software and wants to use all it's features at once, the content is shallow and next to useless as a guide to buying property. All in all I am amazed that this book ever made it into print, it really shouldn't have. I've only given it one star as it's not possible to give none!

The book deals with all aspects of buying and all the legal side of a purchase in spain, and all the strange spainsh laws that us English do not understand,such as checking that the property has no debts attatched to it or if you buy and it has YOU are responsable for them. This book is well written,and in most part (not the law side)very easy to understand ,and has informed me of a lot of things i did not know which is very valuable when you are spending a lot of your hard earned cash on a purchase in a different contry with such uncommon laws,i would highly recommend this book if you are considering a place in the sun.
