info@creatingwealthpodcast.com (Jason Hartman) — Sat, 01 Sep 2007 01:08:52 +0000

PART ONE: Jason talks with, Sara Liskey, one of our Rental Coordinators about getting your properties rented fast. As the rental market improves this has become easier; however, it is very important to maintain high occupancy for your rental properties to insure excellent ROI. Jason believes that the best investments are rental income properties; therefore, he does not recommend vacant land as it is a speculative investment based on the hope of unreliable appreciation rather than rental income which is far more reliable and offers staying power for the investor.

PART TWO: Jason is interviewed on KABC Talk Radio AM790 where he talks about Eastern Europe’s real estate market (full detail on future podcast) and explains how the $27 billion per month adjustable rate mortgage reset issue is affecting the stock, bond and real estate markets.

#24 – The Three Dimensions of Real Estate Investing™

info@creatingwealthpodcast.com (Jason Hartman) — Fri, 24 Aug 2007 01:49:10 +0000

Unlike stocks, bonds, mutual funds or commodities such as precious metals like gold and silver – real estate is a multi-dimensional asset class. The multi-dimensional nature of income property makes it extremely profitable in changing ways based on varying market conditions. This is a wonderful thing because investors can profit even seemingly “bad” markets. For example, when financing becomes expensive (low housing affordability rates) or difficult to qualify for (low capital liquidity) it can create excellent opportunities to increase rents. When mortgage rates are low and qualifying is easy it can spur terrific appreciation. You can win either way so long as you adapt your strategy based on economic realities.

Additionally, a discussion about Macro vs. Micro Markets™ so don’t just run out and buy based on a city – be sure to screen and drill down into the various Micro Markets™ within each city. Since you can’t buy all of them… you may as well buy the best ones!

Last but not least Jason recommends the book “Revolutionary Wealth” by Alvin and Heidi Toffler.

#23 – It is time to increase your rents… thanks to the mortgage meltdown!

info@creatingwealthpodcast.com (Jason Hartman) — Tue, 07 Aug 2007 09:51:32 +0000

ATTENTION INVESTORS: It is time to increase your rents! Learn more about how “the credit bubble” or “the mortgage meltdown” is BENEFITING landlords with increasing rents and lower vacancy rates. If you are a client of ours or have attended our seminars you are familiar with The Three-Dimensions of Real Estate™ (podcast coming soon) which so many fail to understand. You can profit tremendously in virtually any real estate market so long as you adapt quickly and utilize the most prudent strategy for the current economic environment. There is real urgency to borrow as much high quality, fixed rate, investment grade debt as possible while you still can. The bank and the tenant can pay for 90% of your investment. Rental properties are clearly the best investment for the average person! Just try getting the bank to buy your stocks, bonds, mutual funds, hedge funds, gold, silver or other “investments” and then try renting them to a tenant – definitely a fantasy!

A portion of this podcast is an interview by Al Rantel on KABC Talk Radio 790AM in Los Angeles.

The link between outsourcing, cheap immigrant labor and the government’s ability to hide inflation.
How the government hides the true inflation rate by not including costs of food and energy in the “core” rate.
How the government pays for the needs of these immigrants by utilizing an insidious hidden “tax” that destroys lifestyle.

info@creatingwealthpodcast.com (Jason Hartman) — Wed, 16 May 2007 02:24:15 +0000

Join Jason Hartman at a recent live seminar as he reviews “The Ten Commandments of Successful Investing”.

1. Thou shalt become educated.

Knowledge is a powerful tool. Do your due diligence so that you are your own best advisor.

2. Thou shalt have a professional Investment Counselor.

Only invest with investment professionals who stay with you for the long-term so that you have a single point of contact to coordinate your entire investment plan. Advisors should buy for themselves what they sell, putting their money where their mouth is, and get paid for producing results rather than simply for advice.

3. Thou shalt maintain control.

Never leave your financial future in the hands of incompetent, unethical or greedy brokerage houses, fund managers or corporations. Always be a direct investor.

4. Thou shalt use prudent financial planning techniques.

Always invest with your goals in mind (retirement, financial freedom, creating wealth) and abide by your risk tolerance and investing style.

5. Thou shalt not gamble.

Be a prudent long-term value investor, never a get-rich-quick gambler, speculator or flipper by investing only in properties that make good financial sense the day you buy them.

6. Thou shalt diversify.

Reduce risk and maximize returns by investing in several areas as every market is different.

7. Thou shalt be Area Agnostic™.

Only invest with an advisor who is not partial to any one area or investment to avoid a conflict of interest. Consider a variety of opportunities.

8. Thou shalt borrow to maximize leverage and accelerate wealth creation.

Use as much borrowed money and as little of your own money as possible so long as the borrowed money can be repaid by the tenant. Let other people’s money work for you, reduce your risk and make you wealthy.

9. Thou shalt only invest where there is universal need.

No one needs stocks, bonds or gold but EVERYONE needs a place to live and with growing affluence around the world, consumption of raw materials will continue to cause upward price pressure on improved real estate.

10. Thou shalt invest only in tax-favored assets.

Non-cash write-offs and deductions are money in your pocket and real estate offers the best of both.
