Both in business and the world of investments, timing is an important issue. Do I buy or sell this share today or tomorrow? Should I close this deal now, or hold off for a higher or lower price tomorrow? While I can’t give you the answers to these questions, one timing question I can confidently answer is that of the correct timing for accessing money.
I am often asked the question, “When is the best time to access money?”.
We finally did purchase our first investment property. We bought it at a real estate auction and got a great price. But what a rude awakening when we went to get the financing! Things have really changed in the past few months when it comes to getting a loan. Sure there are still some great programs out there for first time home buyers and even for people who are not first time buyers, but are purchasing a home to live in. The problem is that banks do not really want to lend to investors.
Fortunately my husband and I have a really good mortgage broker and a good credit scores, but we still had to put 20% down in order to secure a mortgage on this property. Last time we applied for a loan on an investment property (on a house that we ultimately decided not to purchase), we only had to put 10% down and we were able to lock into an interest rate 1% lower than what we were able to get now. And that was only about four months ago.
The third goal is to automate the business so that it virtually runs itself, or rather is fueled mostly by the time and efforts of others instead of by the entrepreneur’s. When each hour of time spent is magnified by a product and the automating mechanism of a business, the money making potential far outstrips anything that can be accomplished merely by trading one’s hours.
Even though I have taken courses on how to purchase property “subject to” the current mortgage, the method that I learned did not really work in my state so I abandoned this method before I even tried it. Then I heard a tele-training with Wendy Patton on lease options and subject to deals on REIBlueprints. I wanted to try a lease option, and I thought that was what this training was about. But it was actually about how to purchase properties using lease options and subject to deals without having to put any money down.
Far too many of us struggle to get ahead by trading away our lives for money, but the entrepreneurs are those who have realized that they would do better to find a surrogate to offer up for sacrifice instead of their lives, one hour at a time.
