Discover How to Unleash The Mind’s True Potential

Has anyone ever wished that they could be smarter? Have they wished for a bit more of superior intelligence? Is anyone in search for a keen depth of perception generated from his or her very own mind? Michael Watson, a successful Detroit area Real Estate investor, has discovered a product that can help one unlock the true power of success by unlocking one’s own mental acuity. Michael was the guest speaker at the National Real Estate Network’s Mega Evening Event last week.

Michael spoke about wondering what it would be like to be “really smart”, smart like few people in the world can claim. Wouldn’t everyone want to be resourceful enough to remember important details in the blink of an eye, and have that virtual “photographic memory” that’s talked about in classrooms across the country? Wouldn’t anyone want the ability solve complex problems without spending hours, and even days hopelessly meditating and dwelling upon a particular idea or subject, to no avail. Well, Michael told the group of investors about the new product he has found that would allow one to do just that, unlock the mental block.

Michael Watson has found a simple, proven, tool that one can use quickly and easily to increase the mental abilities, boost the IQ and awaken the mental focus, without even cracking a book. Wouldn’t everyone be interested in learning more about how to better gain knowledge? Anyone with a brain in need of this sharpening tool should log on to Michael’s web site and discover ways to increase and improve the mental abilities, such as, capacity, clarity and memory.

Mr. Commercial Real Estate Announces Mastermind Workshop Series
Mr. Commercial Tells All, How to Get Started in Commercial, Industrial, and Retail Real Estate Now on CD and DVD

Pat Winter, Mr. Commercial Real Estate, announces a new series of video programs from his Mastermind Group workshops. The Commercial Mastermind Group meets every other Tuesday at the Holiday Inn in Southfield, Michigan. Each workshop is followed by the release of DVD, which contains that week’s opening presentation, and will be available to public.

Mr. Winter says the commercial real estate market is one of the most underrated and untapped investing sectors in the world of real estate. He said the reason for this is that very few people know how to take advantage of the vast number tremendous opportunities there are out there. Pat told the Commercial Mastermind Group, “Practically every street corner has a sleeping cash generator, just waiting for some savvy investor to come along and tap into it, but unless you’ve spent years learning the commercial market or were born into it, as I was, chances are you’ll pass on by and someone who knows how to do it will reap all the rewards.”

Anyone could be that person. What if one could know how to turn that mom and pop grocery into a veritable ATM, or how to turn an aging strip mall into a viable retail center that has tenants lining up to lease space. What if one knew how to sell a rundown warehouse to a national corporation for a substantial return without ever putting one penny of one’s own money into the deal? What if one could wake up each day excited to go out looking for the next deal that will make a bank account bulge? One would say they didn’t understand the commercial real estate world, or haven’t spent years learning the ins and outs of this seemingly secret information, and fortunately, not many people have, which is why the field is so ripe with opportunity.

The Mastermind DVD series will be available on Mr. Winter’s website: www.mrcommercialre.com Contact: Mr. Commercial Real Estate LLC Tel: 734-402-0180 www.mrcommercialre.com

Real Estate Lesson on Finding, Controlling, and Selling Leads

Mark Maupin, the #1 keynote speaker for the National Real Estate Network, also known as Mr. Lease Option, recently announced the release of his latest DVD video training program for real estate investors, “Success in Generating Leads.” Mark’s new DVD video program is based on his real estate investor’s workshop of the same name. Mark describes “Success in Generating Leads” as a comprehensive program designed to help investors generate solid business leads. As Mark points out, the program includes a CD with a purchase agreement that investors can tailor to meet their specific needs, to ensure that they don’t lose out on profitable deals. “Success in Generating Leads” includes information on how to find motivated sellers who are anxious to make deals, and how to invest in real estate without the risk of ownership, i.e. without mortgages, slip-and-fall liability risks, or capital contributions.

Mark says the program also shows how to overcome the problems commonly associated with bad credit. Mr. Maupin says that his new DVD program will help investors find motivated sellers, generate cash leads, sell their leads to motivated buyers and investors, partner with experienced investors, market and advertise in more innovative ways, and even receive profits from the work of others.
Mark listed several \nadvantages provided by the buyer-favorable purchase agreement on the included \nprogram CD. Investors can assign buy/sell agreements without tax prorations, and \ncan use the agreement to file a claim of interest. The agreement provides three \nescape clauses that help avoid seller conflicts, includes ten additional \nbuyer-favorable clauses and a memorandum to a buy/sell agreement. Mark \nMaupin has been working in real estate for 25 years. In that time he’s purchased \nmore than 3500 single-family homes and many multi-family properties. He’s a \nmember of commercial MLS at a national level, including the Real Estate Land \nInstitute. Mr. Maupin’s experience includes knowledge of real estate marketing \nand finance, construction and remodeling. As Mark recently told a gathering of \ninvestors, “The greater your base of knowledge, the more opportunities you’ll be \nable to identify.” For more information about “Success in Generating \nLeads” and other related investor training programs, see Mark Maupin’s website \nat: www.mrleaseoption.com.

Lease Option, Rent To Own, Lease To Own, and Rent with Option to Buy Are All Saying The Same How to Get Top Dollar for Property Every Time

Lessons learned on exit strategies from rental properties and hard to sell real estate:
Having over 300 rental properties; equates to over-buying. Things were out of control with rental properties. With the help of an associate, and Real Estate Broker together developing a Lease with Option to Buy Program, which then was utilized to sell most of these rental properties. The Lease with Option to Buy Program resulted in the following: 1. Long-term tenants pay above market rent 2. Tenants who are taking pride in ownership, making improvements to the property 3. Sales that would not of happened otherwise, at above market prices .Using this exit strategy many times, it removed the overwhelming situation. Your tenants might not necessarily know the meaning of Lease with Option to Buy, but they do know the term, Rent to Own

Increase Profits Through the Use of Lease Options
1. Expect five times the number of responses than a regular "For Rent" ad. There are a lot of people looking for an opportunity to own their home.2. The tenants will be people inherently more responsible and serious about owning their next home.3. One will receive a monthly payment towards the option fee (the fee being paid to grant the option) in addition to the monthly rent, thereby increasing your monthly cash flow. 4. People looking to buy with a lease option are generally willing to pay a slightly higher sales price, often 15% higher.

To set up a Lease with Option to Purchase with a tenant, one will need all of the documents that would normally use to set up a simple rental/lease. (Rental Agreement, check-in/check-out list, Lead Base Paint Disclosure and pamphlet, Smoke Detector Agreement and any other agreements normally used).In addition, one will need an Option agreement, be sure to use one that protects as the Option or, as many option forms available favor the Optioned. Attached to the Option will be a Purchase Agreement, which will spell out the terms of the sale that the tenant may purchase under, in the future. NOTE: It is important that both parties just initial the Purchase Agreement on the top or bottom corner to acknowledge that the terms have been agreed to but it is not yet a binding Purchase Agreement. One will want to be sure to use an Option form that is non recordable, on the public records so that the tenant doesn't unnecessarily cloud the title to your property

How to structure a Lease Option:
1. Charge market rent. Don't give discounts on rent just because the tenants are also paying you a monthly option fee or they are planning on buying the house; the option is separate from the rental.
2. Get as much option fee up front. The more the perspective tenants pay up front, the greater their risk will be if they don't follow through. Credit the option fee towards the sale price if they close.
3. In Michigan, one can only collect equal to 1-1/2times the amount of the rental rent as security deposit up front when renting, plus one may have to give it back if the tenants move.
4. Make your option cancelable if the tenants default in any of the terms of the rental/lease. (We have this incorporated into all agreements)
5. Work with a mortgage loan officer to qualify perspective tenants. Have the loan officer advise on how long it will take to have the tenant "mortgage ready", then set lease option term accordingly.
6. When pricing property, one will be able to get more than market price, but remember the property will have to appraise for the purchase price when they qualify for the mortgage. 15% or higher is a good range, figuring their option fee being deducted and appreciation.
7. Make the tenant responsible for repairs and maintenance to the property; make sure the rental agreement states they are responsible for the cost of such repairs and renovations. (Keep in mind under Michigan law, owners are still ultimately responsible).

The video program gives detailed information about how to find and price property, negotiate buys, do self-marketing, title property, fix and rehabilitate property, find experienced sub-contractors, and create exit strategies for selling and lease options. Mr. Maupin’s considerable knowledge of real estate covers every aspect from marketing and finance to construction and remodeling. His grasp of the potential of real estate has enabled him to develop innovative marketing and business concepts for his organization. As one of the founders of the National Real Estate Network, he continues to further his education and learning whenever possible and encourages other investors to so. Mr. Maupin conducts ongoing real estate investing seminars, as well as a real estate mentoring program. “The greater your base of knowledge, the more opportunities you will be able to identify,” he recently told an audience of investors.

Commercial real estate expert, Pat Winter www.mrcommercialre.com , recently told an audience, “Mark Maupin’s Find Fix and Sell program contains lots of ‘how-to’ information for purchasing and rehabbing residential homes, as well as great exit strategies.” For more information about “Find, Fix and Sell” and other related products, go to
