Join an investor group online or follow the blogs of some of the most successful real estate investors in the world. This will give you invaluable information that you can use and implement into your strategy too. You may even be able to talk one-on-one with these people.
You should consider launching real estate investor websites for your business.
When investing in residential real estate, make sure you know the neighborhood in which you are buying. Some neighborhoods offer better resale potential, while others are better for long or short-term rentals. By knowing your neighborhood, you can create a smart business plan that nets you the highest potential for future profits.
Do not talk negatively about others to get business, that will never serve you long term. Simply be honest, trustworthy and focus on self-promotion!
Before you try selling, you should make sure to find out what the price range is for the house in the current market.

Long Term Real Estate Investing Tips & Strategies

Think long-term when investing in real estate. While some investors seek to make quick turnovers by buying cheap and flipping within weeks or months, your better bet is a longer-term view or a combination of the two approaches.
If you’re a buy and hold investor, look for high appreciating areas where you can park a big sum of money and get investment return via monthly income like rent.
If you’re a subject to investor like myself, find properties in fast selling areas and/or new build areas and start building your portfolio of wrapped properties that produce a nice passive income for no money down.
If you like doing rehabs and you purchase a property that needs extensive repairs, be wary of any contractors who ask for money in advance. You should not have to pay before the work is done. If you do, you run the risk of getting ripped-off. At the very least, never pay the full amount ahead of time.

Starting a real estate investing business is great if you would like to be your own boss, make your own schedule and create the perfect balance of work and home. Do your best to develop the best business possible so you can live comfortably while working from home. Your REI business can become a valuable investment and a great asset too.
