You have to be in to win

Choices have recently been given a parcel of re-possessed properties to dispose of on behalf of Mortgagees in possession. These properties are often seen as the holy grail of property investment and obtaining them has involved persistence and hard work. We were successful because of the strength of our proposition and its consequent appeal to mortgage lenders.

Firstly we have an enormous pool of investment buyers to draw upon, secondly we are organised in such a way that we can progress chase sales through to completion and finally, we charge the buyer not the seller. As you would expect, it is proving quite easy to place these properties with our clients and it is therefore most unlikely that our free subscribers will ever see them (free subscribers only get sent investment property opportunities after they have first been presented to our retained clients).

If you are serious about buying property as an investment you have to ask yourself some serious questions. Firstly, what chance do you have of personally persuading a lender to offer their properties to you alone? Secondly, are you able to devote the time and skill necessary to source the right property as well as carrying out your normal job? Lastly you need to ask yourself what is holding you back from making the decision to join our paid subscribers and benefit fully from our service?

On this last point, one answer might be that you are reluctant to pay our subscription fees. However, much of the strength of our proposition is being able to prove to lenders, developers and distress sellers that we have access to large numbers of serious buyers which is a lot easier when we can show they have paid to retain us

In reality we do not believe the money is the real reason that holds most people back. We believe there are actually two more powerful inhibitors at work. The first is fear of the unknown, often going under the guise of sensible caution and the second is one that prevents most people at being successful in life, it is deeply rooted in human nature and it is called inertia.

As we all know, good ideas are two a penny, it is only when you put a good idea into practice that it becomes worth anything. Inertia is the force that acts on objects in such a way as to keep them in their current position, it is resistant to change and it is a powerful force. To overcome inertia you need a stronger force, call it motivation, desire, or even the awareness of a pressing need. If there a strong enough recognition of need then the bonds of inertia will break and action can take place.

So the real issue is need, the need to buy property in the first place. We spend a lot of time talking about how to buy property and where to buy property but the more important question is why buy property at all? The right answer for most people has nothing to do with greed and everything to do with expediency. Sure there are compulsive property buyers who accumulate a huge portfolio well beyond the point where their need for financial security has been satisfied. For most of us though the situation is much more basic. If we are to avoid poverty in old age we need to accumulate more wealth than we can realistically expect to accumulate through work alone. Buying stocks and shares is not the solution for most people, neither are pensions and other collective investments.

The simple truth is that for most people buying property is the only viable way of achieving financial security and this is the compelling force you need to use to break the bonds of inertia and take action. All we ask is you have an open mind to our proposition, we think that you should maintain your sensible caution and that you have the right to be fully convinced before making a commitment. You may like to view our movie tutorial first; Sarah Walker puts our case very clearly and eloquently. Preferably though, come and see us, either attend one of our seminars, or arrange a one on one consultation with one of our advisors. At the very least book a consultation on the phone and allow us to help you relate what we do to your particular situation.

There are no magic wands that we know of to guarantee success in anything. The road to financial security is rarely an easy one; the secret to success is to set out on the journey well prepared and with adequate back up but as the saying goes, every journey no matter how long has to start with a single step.

Yours sincerely
