      <description>1570 Mink, Memphis, TN 38111

I am offering a very lucrative deal.  Selling a property in Memphis, TN.  Since I only go in neighborhoods that I feel comfortable, this house sits on a nice, quite street that a tenant will desire to live.  Since we own another property on the same street, we are confident in the $800-850 rent range.

The house is 100% renovated to our Lifestyle&#8482; Renovations specifications.

Here is the list of incentives to buy the property:

We will pay $400 a month on top of the rent collected during the first year

Free Property Management through Coldwell Banker 

1 yr maintenance free guarantee--if it breaks, we will fix it

Nothing complicated about this, we simply want to move this property and are willing to offer these incentives.  With the incentives we are offering, you are guaranteed good cash flow during the first year.  

Visit www.reprospectors.com to see pictures of the property.</description>

      <link>http://wiki.biggerpockets.com/press_releases/58-biggerpockets-com-the-premier-real-estate-social-network-surpasses-4-members</link>
      <description>This is an exciting time around BiggerPockets as its membership base now exceeds 40,000 and growing daily. 

&amp;quot;As our membership expands each and every day, it is a glowing endorsement of what we at BiggerPockets are doing and a strong sign of our vitality for all those who are interested in the inner workings of the real estate market in this country,&amp;quot; says Joshua Dorkin, CEO and founder of BiggerPockets.

BiggerPockets continues to be popular not only with ordinary men and women interested in real estate, but increasing is the &amp;quot;must go to&amp;quot; resource for many of this nation's most important national, regional and local news organizations:

 CBS News Radio, Los Angeles Times, Long Island Newsday, USA Today, US News &amp;amp; World Report, Chicago Tribune, Orlando Sentinel, MSN Money, Reuters, Chicago Sun Times, Fox Business, Palm Beach Post, and Google News among just a few.

&amp;quot;We are, of course, flattered when the LA Times or CBS radio turns to BiggerPockets for input on real estate issues large and small, &amp;quot; says Dorkin.&amp;quot; But the real test of our worth is in the vote of confidence we are given by the growing ranks of those who consider themselves &amp;quot;members&amp;quot; of the BiggerPockets extended family as well as those who might just be passing through, but stop long enough to take part in the the on-going discussion that BiggerPockets has become so famous for.&amp;quot;

      <title>Need money for your short sale or REO?</title>
      <link>http://wiki.biggerpockets.com/press_releases/57-need-money-for-your-short-sale-or-reo-</link>
      <description>To my knowledge, we are the only investors who can provide transactional funding services to those pesky Bank of America and Wells Fargo deals that stipulate in their addendums that the investor may NOT re-sell the property inside of 30 days.
We are not hard money lenders and do not provide rehab loans, but do provide transactional funding for 100% of your purchase price plus closing costs! This means no out of money costs to you (other than your earnest money deposit) and our fees are paid from the B to C transaction, so no upfront costs either! We are very competitive with our rates and our services are more personable and friendly. Come found out why we are becoming the preferred transactional lenders for BP members.

We have the traditional same day double closing service, a 72 hour loan service, a 14 day service, and a 32 day loan service. Please contact me by email for details, specifications and price levels.

      <title>MailingList.org Provides Real Estate Investors With New Marketing Tools</title>
      <link>http://wiki.biggerpockets.com/press_releases/56-mailinglist-org-provides-real-estate-investors-with-new-marketing-tools</link>
      <description>Oceanside, CA -- The real estate market is proving to be the mother of invention as investors and agents grapple with a roiling marketplace that often fails to efficiently bring together home sellers and investors searching for opportunities. 

Jeremy Jennings, CEO of MailingList.org, a leading supplier of short sale leads, pre-foreclosure leads and other key data used by the real estate market, says that the inefficiencies of recent years may have actually delayed sector recovery. 

 &amp;quot;The speed of recovery in the housing market relies to some degree on quickly matching supply with demand. The market was caught flat-footed by the severity of the housing bust. But as new tools evolve, real estate investors are making use of them to bridge data-flow inadequacies and to gain advantages.&amp;quot;   

 The demand for affordable, state-of-the-art foreclosure listings has been a surprisingly long time in building   

 But from this point on I look to a quickening pace of innovation in data offerings as bust turns to boom and the most skilled investors come to expect a continuing data advantage.   

&amp;quot;The speed of recovery in the housing market relies to some degree on quickly matching supply with demand. The market was caught flat-footed by the severity of the housing bust. But as new tools evolve, real estate investors are making use of them to bridge data-flow inadequacies and to gain advantages.&amp;quot; 

A glut of distressed properties and a continuing stream of new foreclosures have indeed resulted in a vast demographic of economically stressed home owners and potential buyers unable to access timely market information. While both public and commercial sources provide their own separate lists of troubled or defaulted mortgages -- the system was designed to handle the slower pace of transactions prior to the subprime mortgage crisis and has struggled to adjust. 

Jennings' company is one of several now marketing a service which compiles real-time listings of troubled and defaulted mortgages from major institutions. Clients of the service benefit from being among the first to know of pending mortgage defaults before they reach the public domain. According to industry sources there were a total of about one million foreclosures nationwide in 2008, a sixty-three percent rise over the previous year. In all, the foreclosure process was begun on two million homes during that time period, and rates remain high -- involving about one-third of total home sales in June 2009. 

&amp;quot;The demand for affordable, state-of-the-art foreclosure listings has been a surprisingly long time in building,&amp;quot; says Jennings. &amp;quot;But from this point on I look to a quickening pace of innovation in data offerings as bust turns to boom and the most skilled investors come to expect a continuing data advantage.&amp;quot;

      <title>Earth Friendly Apartment Investing</title>
      <link>http://wiki.biggerpockets.com/press_releases/52-earth-friendly-apartment-investing</link>
      <description>Austin, Texas, August 31, 2009

As the market rebounds, apartments built within the last decade are now so deeply leveraged that investors have little cash flow or equity left to make green upgrades very soon. The problem is fewer incentives to drive up occupancy.  However, Green Suite Properties is gaining investor attention by partnering for complexes 20 years old or more.  

Why? Older C-Class properties are more easily acquired even with a 25% vacancy rate and rapidly filled to capacity with an 8-point green package starting with free computers, Wifi, phone and Internet. Additional water and power savings and tenants who save receive quarterly cash rebates. A rent-to-own program also gives temporary residents a stepping stone back into home ownership and credit repair.

Since July, Green Suite Properties has doubled it's online inquiries from investors. They see a position for risk reversed safe equity plays. Municipal tax incentives also help. By refitting older units with solar, wind, and Earth-friendly upgrades, the equity structure for investors is more attractive because the savings attracts people without raising rents. 

Bobby Drish, managing partner commented, &amp;quot;Once we sourced green upgrades, the math just worked. We attract more renters to a community that rewards them in unexpected ways. Also, the idea that investors are scarce is a myth. We're looking for complexes with 'the right things wrong'. By exhaustively correcting energy waste we create a self-managing community where residents, investors and the environment receive positive impact.&amp;quot; 

ABOUT: Green Suite Properties is based in Austin, Texas.  Interested investors, brokers and selling agents can view an executive summary by visiting GreenSuiteProperties.com or by contacting Bobby Drish at 512-961-3786

      <title>They say it can&#8217;t be done!  Buy and sell a house in 2 weeks and walk away with $10,000 cash? In a recession? Impossible. Until now &#8230; </title>
      <link>http://wiki.biggerpockets.com/press_releases/49-they-say-it-can-t-be-done-buy-and-sell-a-house-in-2-weeks-and-walk-away-with-1-cash-in-a-recession-impossible-until-now-</link>
      <description>For years, Jason Rodriguez has been telling everyone who attends his seminars and reads his books, &#8220;I can buy and sell a house in 2 weeks and walk away with $10,000 cash anytime, anywhere.&#8221;

He&#8217;s proven it time and time again. He&#8217;s bought and sold more than 400 homes over the last 12 years. Now, for the first time, he&#8217;ll do it for the whole world to watch as he trains one lucky investor how to buy and sell a home and he or she keeps the $10,000 cash. Best of all, anyone with an Internet connection can follow along and see how Rodriguez does it too, free.

The Extreme Real Estate Challenge is part American Idol, part Survivor and part Extreme Makeover as Rodriguez flies into one lucky investor&#8217;s hometown and shows LIVE step-by-step how he buys and sells homes in this one-of-a-kind reality show. Viewers can follow along on YouTube, Viddler, his blog, Twitter, Facebook as he gives away his time-proven investment secrets.

While the pundits are advising investors to stay out of real estate, Rodriguez is putting his neck on the line and challenging the experts who say it can&#8217;t be done.

&#8220;I have to admit I&#8217;m a bit nervous,&#8221; Rodriguez said. &#8220;I know my system works. But this time, I&#8217;m going to be working with someone I don&#8217;t know at all and working with them in a town I don&#8217;t know. I have no idea where we&#8217;re going to find the home, who the seller may be or who the buyer maybe. But I do know how I&#8217;m going to do it using a system that continues to make money for me and my students &#8211; and that&#8217;s why I&#8217;m so convinced it will work!&#8221;

Here&#8217;s how the Extreme Real Estate Challenge will work: Anyone who is interested in being mentored in his or her hometown by Jason Rodriguez for 2 weeks during the challenge, may register as a candidate until September 23. Five finalists will be selected and the public will choose the winner online September 25. Rodriguez will have no idea where he&#8217;s going until the winner is selected by the viewers!

Then, Rodriguez will fly out the next day and he will begin working with one lucky investor for 2 weeks from September 28 &#8211; October 12 as they buy and sell a home. Viewers will get to follow along and learn Rodriguez&#8217;s investment secrets too, LIVE! The mentee selected gets to keep the profits from the sale, which will be at least $10,000!

      <description>The Smart Internet Marketing Solution (SIMS) is the missing tool that real estate investors and REALTORS have been asking for to combine their offline marketing with effective online website conversions. SIMS will allow investors the ability to leverage the power of the internet to help website visitors become motivated clients, and help them build massive list of buyers without having to become webmasters. 

Greg even offers a free report based on one module of SIMS called &amp;quot;Property Launch Formula&amp;quot; that can be used to improve real estate website conversions. This free report is available at http://www.sellinghouse.us and just requires a first name and email address. This 72 page report provides detailed information that can be used right away to improve website traffic and lead generation for any real estate investor or agent.

The SIMS program is launching this week to a limited audience. It tested well in the early beta testing phase and promises to finally provide the needed tools for real estate agents and investors to meet up with buyers and sellers. You can learn more at www.sellinghouse.us and get a free report called &amp;quot;Websites Suck Squeeze Pages Rule!&amp;quot; 

The Smart Internet Marketing Solution (SIMS) seems to finally introduce a new and fresh method to helping improve the ailing real estate sales market with a brand new system that&#8217;s totally crushing the OLD way of selling houses.

      <link>http://wiki.biggerpockets.com/press_releases/46-free-webinar-on-why-97-percent-of-real-estate-investors-fail-and-how-to-fix-it</link>
      <description>It is no secret the real estate industry has taken a hit, but regardless of the down economy, many real estate investors are thriving with their real estate mentor's guidance. Tim Taylor, real estate success coach and author who has studied under the likes of TonyRobbins, Jack Canfield and &amp;quot;Rich Dad Poor Dad&amp;quot; author Robert Kiyosaki, has closely monitored the psychology and mindset for real estate success. Taylor will present his research along with the reasons why 97 percent of real estate investors fail, and how to fix it in a webinar on Thursday, August 6th, 2009 at 6:00 p.m. PST (9:00 p.m. EST).

In the one and a half-hour webinar, attendees will learn the psychology behind lucrative real estate investors' continual success and the mindset required to achieve the same lifestyle.

&amp;quot;One of the current roadblocks to successful investing is the fear of failure due to slow economic conditions,&amp;quot; comments Tim Taylor. &amp;quot;What many don't realize is that several well-known and successful large companies including Hewlett-Packard, Microsoft, IHOP, Hyatt Corp. and many more, were born during an economic slump. One of the few reasons why these large businesses succeeded is simply because they recognized a market need and took action to fill it.&amp;quot;

Space is limited; reserve your seat for the free webinar to ensure you do not miss out on the opportunity to discover the main obstacle holding you back from becoming a multi-millionaire.

Date: Thursday, August 6th, 2009 Time: 6:00 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. PDT (9:00 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. EST) Register at: www.timtaylorsuccesscoach.com/163-2-3-2.html After registering you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the webinar.
