Costs #76





I'm here with another of my 101 Pash lo accelerators. And in this one I want you to be aware of what your costs are when you're doing renovations. I know that sounds simple and uh, but it's really not. A lot of people really don't understand what they're going to spend when they go into a project often. Yeah. Actually, as an investor, I buy from wholesalers all the time and one of the things is they bring me projects that are failed projects. Why? Because the on knowing untrained investor came in, purchased the property, started the renovation, ran out of money, got taken advantage of by the contractor, didn't know what to do, didn't know how to do it, crashed and burned brings me the deal. I buy it for pennies on the dollar. I'm able to finish the renovation. It's something you need to be very aware of, particularly if you're just getting started in the business.

It's critical that you know your costs literally go room by room. Now in my system, Oh renovations, I actually take you step by step and room by room in the budgeting process and so you're identifying the items in that room. Now what I've done is already given you a tip off for each one of the things that I want you to look at when you're at that project. And so what happens is now you are triggered to actually identify that particular thing. For example, in the kitchen, obviously cabinets, then countertops and then the sink and then the faucet. You see each one of these as a separate budget item. [inaudible] can be highly skewed on the costs by your choices of banishes, by your choices of quality of cabinet, your choice of this sink, your choice of the faucet. You see each one of these items [inaudible] very widely, as I was saying, so it's important that you identify these things by taking that list of budget items, you identify what you're going to have in your project.

Now you can go online, the home depot.com or you can go to other suppliers and you can literally identify the items that you want selected for your property and put those item numbers. In fact, you can build a list right there online. Build a list of all the items that you want and they'll add them up. Now we are certified affordable housing providers.

Lou Brown has been buying, selling and holding property for 40 years and you are about to discover what a lot of so called gurus are missing.
* How to buy all the property you want without ever visiting a single bank or needing to qualify for a loan…
* How to have a buyer or renter before you even buy property…
* How to have them already pay you money before you sold them anything…
These are exactly the kinds of deals he does day in and day out. Most 'investors' are getting it wrong. It's not about the property, it's about the buyer. Buying right and buying cheap is what you'll do after you have the buyer.
