Resolved Question: Does anyone know any high net worth investor interested in a luxury real estate project joint venture good ROI?
My partner and I are seeking a high net worth investor to bankroll our high-end lakefront spec home project. We are looking for an individual who has capital available to invest and is interested in a joint venture. My partner and I are having to regroup. We had a funding partner for our project, and we were going to begin soon. However, our funding partner just found out that he has a serious illness and is having to withdraw from the project. So, we are now in need of another funding partner.

We are seeking $7 million to fund acquisition of 3 lakefront lots on Lake Burton ( North East Georgia Mountains) and to fund construction of 3 spec homes. We have currently negotiated to purchase three lakefront lots, have obtained all the permits and approvals, have chosen floor plans, have formed a real estate holding company, and simply need the capital to begin. Time is of the essence for us, and we are offering 40% on a JV. (We are seeking 100% funding) The officers of LCI (real estate holding company) bring together the expert experience of marketing and constructing residential real estate in the north Georgia mountains. We plan to construct and sell three high-end residential homes during the year of 2008/2009 and create a return of approximately 75% or approximately $5,000,000.00. This is a very simple and rather turn key investment that is secured by some of the most desired real estate in Georgia. Also, 2007 was a record breaking year for home and lot sales on Lake Burton despite other real estate market crashes, and 2008 is looking even stronger. We will NOT pay any upfront fees and we are NOT looking for a loan. We are simply looking for an individual investor who has the available liquid capital to partner with.

Essential Tips For Those Interested in Home Improvement

Homeowners today are finding that do-it-yourself home improvement provides satisfaction. Not only do they get to enjoy the cosmetic improvement, which beautifies their surroundings, they also benefit from saving a lot of money from doing the jobs themselves. As you may or may not know, hiring contractors to do the work can be very expensive.

Aside from beautifying the room, many homeowners are taking on home improvement to improve their chances of selling their homes and coming out with more money in the end sale.

If you are slightly talented and handy, you may be able to take on quite a few home improvement projects. For example, you may wish to upgrade your kitchen by sanding your wooden cabinets and re-staining them. Although this can be a very time-consuming and often frustrating task, updating the color will increase the value of your home.

Other kitchen improvements could be either re-tiling the floor or the backsplash. Many renovations can prove to be nerve-racking and very demanding on time, but you will get amazing results. Many homeowners think that this is a very difficult job to take on, however, if the procedure is followed correctly and you are patient, anyone can do this. A tile cutting machine would be required, which you can rent at any home improvement store or hardware store.

Painting the home is not only the easiest home improvement, but also the one which will earn you the most money on return. That is to say that it is a very inexpensive investment. One quick tips here is to use very good equipment and supplies, such as quality paint brushes and rollers and paint quality. Priming the walls prior to painting is essential and in the long run, more economical.

If you are trying to tackle anything in terms of plumbing or electrical work, then you should let professionals do these jobs as they are not only challenging but can be quite dangerous.

It is safe to say that any type of home improvement will not only improve the look of your home and make it more pleasing to you, it will also make it easier to sell. Another good tip for do-it-yourself home improvement would be to start small. In other words, start with a small one day project and see how well you do. This will also help to build your confidence to take on a project that is more difficult.

Podcasting is becoming a common verbal term among the technology savvy people. Podcasting is basically online syndication of audio content by means of an RSS feed. Generally, many people associate podcasting as being a form of radio that is available on demand. In reality, there are many more options and utilities available from podcasting with regard to programming and content when it is compared to radio. As a real estate professional, even you can use it to carry out your online social marketing and capture your target audience.

Podcasting has many advantages as a tool for marketing on the web. Podcasting helps the users to determine the venue and time of broadcasting. This means that they can conveniently decide the kind of programming that they wish to receive and even the time at which it will be opportune for them to do so. Users can retain all the audio archives and listen to them in their spare time. Podcasting has the capability to transform podcasters into triumphant radio personalities of the future.

The services offered by podcasting are extremely helpful. Talk shows that broadcast different kinds of news like investor news, sportscasts, organizational or industry news are found using them along with commentators. This mechanism is also used while news coverage. Self guided walking tours to extract information become easy with podcasting. Visually challenged children are also helped by this process because this process can be used to tell them stories. Music lovers and even other people can use podcasting to promote bands along with their clips and interviews. Informational and instructional data can be advertised via this system too and thus help amateurs in getting trained for different kinds of work.

Podcasting works very similarly to any regular feed reader of RSS or any news aggregator. The main difference is that the particular feed that you will have a subscription for, contains a file that is audio in character. In order to listen to the audio feed, you can use an aggregator or reader that properly supports podcasting. You also have the option to listen to these feeds on any iPod or any device that is similar to it.

The name podcasting came because of its orientation and connection to the iPod. It is not necessary to own an iPod in order to listen to any podcast. Different websites have links that are clickable to display podcasts and most standard RSS readers such as the latest beta of FeedDemon that now supports audio enclosures also display podcasts.

The different resources of podcasting are webmasters, broadcasters, publishers and tools. They also help you to reach out to a lot of audience. Today, there exists the facility of instant podcasts which helps people to present the same information and data differently in various formats. Thus you can use this method which reduces your expenses and also helps you to communicate smoothly and expand your real estate business.

Due to its countless benefits the method of podcasting has gained huge popularity. So, to make your podcast stand out of the rest you need to promote and advertise it in a good way and also polish it to keep it updated.

Cheap Houses For Sale

Foreclosures in 2008 were at a record high and this opened up an entirely new market. This is good news for first time home buyers because they can now get cheap houses for sale. Foreclosure experts believe that due to recession there will be a further increase in foreclosures in 2009 and in all probability this might even cross the 2008 mark. For example, lenders in Hampden County foreclosed 149 properties between January and February 2009. In 2008, the foreclosure rate in the US had spiked by almost 81%, which is a mind boggling 225% increase since 2006.

The total number of foreclosures for sale was 861,664 and the rate of foreclosure was 1 in 54 homes. With more than 3.1 million foreclosure filings, there were almost an excess of 100,000 more cheap houses for sale as compared to 2007. The year 2009 also started with a huge bang as more than 800,000 homes were filed for foreclosure in the first quarter itself. This is the highest first quarter total since 2005. So many foreclosed homes means that they will be sold out through open to public auctions. This is actually a good deal for first time homeowners or those who don’t have the budget to buy a $200,000 home.

Homes listed in foreclosure are referred to as cheap houses for sale because most often than not they have a discounted price tag. For example: you can easily find a 3 bed/ 2 bath foreclosed home in San Diego for a price tag of $87,500. In the real estate market, the same property would have cost you somewhere between $150,000 and $200,000. This is the kind of discount you can get when purchasing foreclosure property.

One of the important things to remember while buying cheap houses for sale is that you should always inspect the home before going for the auction. Some of these homes might have scraped off paint, plumping problems, among others. If you find that any of these homes have such a problem then you can always bid for and get it for a lesser cost. You can then repair the home and sell it off in the market or use it. This is a good proposition for investors who can make profit from this especially when the real estate market stabilizes or rises.

There are plenty of cheap houses for sale in 2009 and you can now find your dream home as well!

A lot of cheap houses for sale are available right now; however it is very important to inspect the house you are interested in before making a decision. Check out ForeclosureDatabank.com to find more info about buying cheap homes for sale.

A Brief Overview of Tax Lien Investing

The tax portion of the term typically refers to unpaid property taxes. The dictionary definition of lien is:

“The legal claim of one person upon the property of another person to secure the payment of a debt or the satisfaction of an obligation.”

Tax lien is like a form of security wherein the individual’s property is used as collateral to make sure that tax-related debt to another person is settled. Initially, the person with the property owes a debt to the government who imposed the taxes. However, after a certain period of time, the government agency will then take the property into auction to be able to compensate their expenses and open a new opportunity for savvy investors.

Investing in tax liens is not just 100% legal but you are also protected too. This is because tax lien is a product made by the federal government and therefore you are safe as you would be protected from the state that you bought the tax lien from. Also, for your convenience, they would be the one to handle the whole tax lien process for you.

Also, buying tax lien certificates is completely safe and open because the investors are actually true to their words and do pay the required taxes imposed. These certificates can be bought at tax sales where a county or municipal official is conducting it.

Once the lien has been transferred from the government to the investor, the investor is entitled to collect the stated interest that is set by the government. This interest can range from 8% to 25% per year.

The owner of the property will be given a certain period of time to be able to pay the new total amount (taxes, interest, and other fees related). However, once the owner of the property cannot pay within the given schedule, the investor will now have the right to foreclose on the property due to the lien.

Tax lien investing is a high yielding investment. Tax lien certificates are an attractive investment because you don’t need thousands of dollars to start and you don’t have to pay any brokerage fees.

Tax lien certificate is an investment that requires your attention and time. If it happens that you have made good purchases and have research the properties that are attached to the tax liens, then you would most likely be happier to acquire a property through foreclosure. However, the list of properties that you will usually have before the sale from the tax office is minimal only, in which it would only tell less about the property. Most often than not, you’ll only acquire the tax ID, amount owed and owner of record.

The first step that you should make prior to buying properties is to take a look at the assessment information on your desired property and locate it. Visiting and seeing the property is always the best move because this would assure you that the assessment information has been kept updated. Also, see to it that the property you are acquiring worth more than the amount that has been owed for back taxes. Bear in mind that there is a chance that you have to pay the taxes on the property throughout the period of redemption (if the property does not redeem) before you can actually foreclose on it or apply for a deed.

Foreclosing on tax lien properties will really certify you a profit that is usually several times your initial investment.

Holmes on Homes-TV Reality Shows Are Not Reality

Holmes on Homes is planning on gaining additional market share in the USA, so to do this they have to scout for people who own homes and who feel that they were cheated by their contractors. Let us walk through the mechanics of how they staged this ‘tragedy of errors’ faux paus.

Appearing in a popular TV Talk show to respond to relevant questions is Mike Holmes: Interviewer: Mike, so what was wrong with the project? Holmes looked amazed and said loudly, What Was Not Wrong! – (Well, Holmes, we don’t know, that’s why we asked . . . YOU). Holmes continues with, I’ve read your contract, (A statement to this effect gives the listener the impression that Holmes also knows contract law.)

Here is a tip that may possibly save people thousands of dollars. NEVER agree to sign a contract that is written by a contractor who believes he has more knowledge about contracts than actual contract attorneys. Contract attorneys can and do rip apart contracts written by fellow attorneys. I like to see Holmes educate a contract Lawyer about a Legal contract.

Holmes goes on to fumble through the blueprints saying, I know I saw 17 foot 1, over and over. If one of my foremen could not find a dimension on a blueprint, he would not be my foreman. 1st year apprentices start learning how to read prints and by their final year they can navigate the documents confidently.

Continuing, Holmes states, the common nail should not be used. The year was 1958 when my father built our house with common nails. Today, that house is still solidly standing. To Wit ” Every fastener has its place. To over generalize about common nails shows a disinterest in knowledge about building theory and building practices then and now.

To cap this off, the contractor is never asked to give his side of the story on ANY of the Holmes on Homes shows. And get this ” The questionable contractor went on to do another big job in the same neighborhood as the botched job with No complaints from those people. Something is definitely wrong here folks.

Can you imagine the possibility that this is a show is searching for ratings. I am of the educated and experienced opinion that Holmes is no more than an actor, albeit a convincing actor. The one thing I feel certain of is that he is not the most trusted contractor in North America.. People who believe what he says and follow his ‘professional’ advice will find out to late that it was only entertainment.

Finally, for those of you who think he has helped so many people. Here are the numbers: – 6 Seasons, approximately 12 episodes. (That is 72 people helped over the years, if they actually helped someone every episode) – I have helped literally 100’s of people over my 32-year career span. And that’s not to mention the hundreds of thousands of people, trusting contractors in North America have helped over the past 100 years.

The Holmes on Homes Show has put a strain on the contractor and homeowner relationship. Emotions have been carefully played. Consumer psychology has been mastered. My customers only watch the show as entertainment. It’s great to hear them say” you wouldn’t believe what that Canadian guy said yesterday”.

Johnny Kowal has been a hard working Contractor for 30 years which also includes working on various projects in the Film Industry. He owns and operates his companies in the United States and Canada. Get Johnny’s foolproof Remodeling Bad Guy Arsenal. This free guide will save you thousands of dollars on your next renovation.

Reasons Why You Should Landscape Your Back Yard

If you want to have the best chance of selling your house in this economy, you need to do as much as you can to spruce it up and make it appealing to a buyer. It is a buyers market right now and probably will be for some time that means buyers are going to be picky and demanding.

You should not forget the backyard when you decide to sell your home. Having a Spartan design is acceptable if you keep the existing landscaping groomed properly. Your property includes the backyard, so how you maintain it demonstrates how you take care of the house itself. An eye-catching house and yard that is well cared for presents a good package.

Many people will have personalized their yards to their specific needs in their time of ownership. Personalizing your yard is great for as long as you live there, but may negatively affect how your house sells. You would have to find a potential buyer who could appreciate what you have done with your yard in order to have any success in selling your home. If your prospective buyers are not interested in the kind of yard that you have created, they would have to invest money right off to create a kind of yard they could be comfortable in, and would most likely cause them not to purchase your home.

You don’t need to spend a ton of money in order to make your yard into the kind of yard that anyone would be very happy with. All a good yard requires is a nice setup that is comparable to those around you. Your yard should look as good as any other yard in the neighborhood.

Your yard should have the look of a very cared lawn that anyone would be happy to walk on with out shoes. Some owners have trouble selling their house because they haven’t cared for their lawn the way they should. You can’t imagine how much of a benefit having a green well cared for lawn that is well taken care of can be when you are trying to sell your home. The point is everyone looks at the lawn as a part of the house, and if the lawn isn’t well cared for, buyers will feel the the house is not as well cared for.
