Here is a recent testimonial we received:"As a new real estate investor my goalwas to learn all I could. I began by read-ing books watching videos and attendingexpensive real estate investing seminars offered by "wealth pro-fessionals". I found CTREIA during a Google search and decidedto give it a try. My first meeting far exceeded my expectations. Ianticipated a dozen or so individuals brainstorming around atable. Instead, I was "WOWed." What I found was a conferenceroom overflowing with people, a fabulous networking opportunity,available and accommodating vendors and a number of valuabletraining events worth more than my expensive seminars. Thankyou CTREIR — J. Kocot

THE REAL ESTATE INVESTOR 3 www.CTREIA.com October 2007

Tackling one of the most excitingaspects of today's high-stakes realestate market — the transformation ofan eyesore into a profit-making beauty— A&E's hour-long "docu-soap" followsthe travails of three real-estate develop-ers in the hot housing markets of NewHaven, San Antonio and Atlanta, whereeach boasts a team of characters thatbuys homes, renovates them, then flipsthem for a profit. It sounds simple, butsparks fly and tempers are high beforethe fixer-uppers sell to happy buyers.

After graduating from Yale University andplaying for the NFL, and attending countlessmeeting, seminars, workshops from the CTReal Estate Investor Association, Nathaniel"Than" Merrill decided to tackle the real estatebusiness.

"Flip This House" called CT REIA wherethey were put in contact with Than Merrill. Aborn leader, full of big ideas, Than saw moneyto be made flipping houses in New Haven,Connecticut. He called on his childhood friend,Paul Esajian, and together they created CTHomes. Paul is the construction expert andcreative force behind all of their real estate ren-ovations. He persuaded his big brother, JD, tojoin the team as project manager. With hishands-on renovation expertise, JD knows how

to motivate the construction crew and get thejob done. Their latest recruit is Jeremy Black -a former Abercrombie & Fitch model with ahead for numbers. Jeremy is Than's right handman in the search for good investment proper-ties. This model turned acquisitions expert stillhas a lot to learn - his good looks and easysmile may charm the ladies, but not Than andPaul. Lori Parks is in charge of sales. Whenthe going gets tough and a wrestling matchwon't smooth things over, she shakes up theboys club with her feminine touch and a seri-ous reality check.

Paul and Than will be live and in personSaturday and Sunday Oct. 20 & 21.

Creative Fiancing is a term used widelyamongst real estate investors to refer to non-traditional means of real estate financing, orfinancing techniques not commonly used. Thegoal of creative financing is generally to pur-chase, or finance a property, with thebuyer/investor using as little of his own moneyas possible. Otherwise known as leveraging,OPM (Other People's Money). Using thesetechniques an investor may be able to pur-chase multiple properties using little, or none,of his "own money".

Types of Creative FinancingHere are some, but not all of the tech-

niques commonly referred to in creative financ-ing. Many of these are commonly used in con-junction with others, or on a temporary basiswhile more permanent financing is arranged.

Hard money loans. Hard money loans(abbreviated as HML) are similar to privatemortgages except that they are made througha hard money lender. A hard money lendermay get his financing either from his own con-tacts with private lenders, or financial institu-tions with whom he has established his ownlines of credit.

Private mortgages. A private mortgage isa loan secured by real estate that is made by aprivate lender, instead of a traditional lender,financial institution, or government institution.These loans are most commonly short termand last anywhere from 6 months to threeyears. These are asset based loans made forthe purchase and rehabilitation of real estate.Because the loans are asset based, the deci-sion to loan is based on the criteria of the prop-erty and not usually the qualifications, or creditof the borrower.

Other methods commonly used invlude:• Simultaneous Closings• Subject-to• Land trust• Short sale• Lease option, lease to purchase• Owner carry back• Seller seconds• Note buyers• Credit cards• Credit partners• Partnerships• Retirement accounts• 1031 Exchanges• No and low doc loans• Loans on other property

Good credit rating is themost valuable thing wehave when it comes tofinancial independence.

Sadly, the information in our credit reports isoften inaccurate. Surveys have revealed thatnearly 80% of all consumer credit reports con-tain serious errors or mistakes of some kind.This prevents millions of Americans from beingable to purchase homes, automobiles, and otherconsumer goods and services. Additionally,many people are paying high interest ratesunnecessarily. This results in an endless cycleof high monthly payments, which many con-sumers cannot afford. Unable to pay their bills on time, they continue adding negative informationto their credit report, causing their finances to go in a downward spiral, which can have a devas-tating effect on their lives.

quickly and at top dollar. After many years in this business, I've learned

that the more tools and marketing strategies I bring to the table, the more successful we can be. So, with your permission, I would like to share with you in person a brief presentation on what I call Strategic Financing, a marketing and incentive program that I believe is unlike anything you've seen on the market today.

Smart Bart and Normal Norm are friendly rivals, and have been since playing on opposing high school football teams. They are now competing in their local real estate market, Normal Norm has even bet Smart Bart $100 that in two years he will be the more successful real estate investor. Smart Bart accepts the bet, and the whole town is watching:

Smart Bart Normal Norm

Buys $300,000 foreclosed property for $150,000. Does 100% financing.

♦ Profit after taxes and ins = $1,300

Contacts local realtor for property listings. Buys $300,000 investment property for $300,000. Puts 20% down ($60,000) for purchase. Has mortgage for $1,579.

♦ Profit after taxes and ins = $913/mn

Refinances property after 90 days and pulls out $30,000 in cash to rehab property. The property now worth $350,000.

Contacts local realtor to find another investment property. Buys second $300,000 three-family at market value. Has no cash for down payment. Does 100% financing.

♦ Profit after taxes and ins = $383/mn

Sells house in 2 weeks after rehab for $315,000. Profit = $135,000 in 5 months Two tenants move out. One tenant even

destroys the apartment and must be evicted, causing a loss of$10,000 in rent, repairs and legal fees.

Smart Bart wins the bet, nets $540,000 from property flips in two years, and buys his mother her dream home, buys himself a Ferrari, and earns over $40,000/yr from his investments in the S&P 500. His children’s college fund is set, and he spends most of his time playing golf, with his family sailing, and finding good properties to flip.

In two years Normal Norm has netted $31,104. He has been to eviction court four times, and has had several calls from tenants at all hours of the night to repair this or that.

After putting $60,000 down for the initial purchase Normal Norm is still $28,860 in the negative. He has not broken even yet. After 3 years Normal Norm wants out of the real estate business and sells his properties.

THE REAL ESTATE INVESTOR 15 www.CTREIA.com October 2007

By Harvey Weinstein

Investors have discovered a distinctive approachto selling rental properties, or land, while enjoyingunique benefits, thanks to the Internal RevenueCode.

Maintaining rental properties makes maninvestors unhappy and aggravated. Yet, they alsohate paying lots of taxes when they do sell theirproperty. These investors want to convert theirmanagement problem (which often has only a lownet rental income) into a better plan. They shouldconsider using the Multi-Generational InstallmentPurchase Strategy and receive several advantages:

1. Substantial Tax Benefits: The benefits include: (1) Reduction of taxable

income, up to 30%, (2) Reduction of capital gainstax, (3) Reduction of depreciation recapture tax,and (4) Reduction of estate taxes.

This plan is desirable because it reduces bothincome taxes and estate taxes today. It does notsimply delay higher taxes into the future like aSection 1031 transaction.

2. Lifetime Income:This guaranteed, reliable, lifetime income (as an

annuity) is designed for one or two people. It couldbe for you (and also with a spouse or your child).This income is partially tax free too. It's a great supplement for retirement income.

Let's see how this works. Assume that aninvestor couple, both aged 65, sell their propertyworth $400,000, and their cost was $200,000.

They could elect to receive guaranteed lifetimeincome of $ 22,400 each year. According to mortali-ty tables, this couple could receive $586,881 aslifetime income. In addition, they would also receivean income tax deduction of $163,000 to use thisyear and/or in future years.

Younger investors would receive better resultsusing this strategy. They would receive significanttax benefits today, and have the flexibility to deferreceiving their income until some future time, asneeded.

For example, let's assume this couple was age 50

and wanted to delay starting to receive income untilthey reached age 65. For the same property, theywould receive a lifetime income of $ 48,000 eachyear starting at age 65 to use as a retirementincome. Lifetime income could be $1,200,000 (permortality tables).They would also receive a incometax deduction of $163,346.
