Today, I am going to share a little wisdom I heard from a group of the best real estate investing minds I have ever met.  When we met Fortune Builders a couple of years ago, they had already made a name for themselves as a premier property flipping company and had gained national notoriety as one of the hit companies on A&E T.V.'s "Flip This House".  We were interested in having them speak to our investors about real estate in general and they were interested in seeing our operation up close.  What resulted from that first meeting has been two of the absolute BEST companies in their respective fields teaming up to help investors around the world take advantage of this crazy real estate market.

This week Memphis, Tennessee property management company, Premier Property Management announced plans to begin automatic deposits for real estate investors on February 1st.  For many, real estate investing is about passive income and the stress of charting and tracking monthly payments, monthly deposits and monthly expenses can be a nightmare.  Premier Property Management has spent the past two years systematically developing a management company that values investors time and balances the need for information with the need for simplicity.  

On Tuesday night, January 4th, Marq Cobb who leads the sales floor at MemphisInvest.com, held a quick 45 minute Webinar recapping three great success stories from investors in 2010.  Each defined success in their own way and each took advantage of the services provided by our years of experience in the Memphis investment real estate market.  The stories shared were simply inspiring!

Yet another Holiday season has come and gone.  Months of shopping for those perfect gifts and spending time with family that you love (or the relatives you can only tolerate one time a year).  Either way, it’s always memorable in some way to everyone.  Here at MemphisInvest.com the years are filled with busy office days and event travels.  2010 was no different, if anything one of the busiest years.  Even with the mayhem of wrapping up the year and  moving full steam ahead into 2011, we never forget that it’s also the time a year when giving back is most important.

Buying rental properties can be a tricky proposition and being a new investor makes it even tougher. After acquiring over 4,500 properties, serving 1,700 clients and managing $600 million in assets, we know a thing or two about real estate investing. Over the past 10+ years, we've grown from a handful of employees to an 88 member team in 5 markets (Memphis, Little Rock, Oklahoma City, Dallas and Houston) and we pride ourselves on being the best at what we do! And we got here by following a lot of the tips I'm sharing with you today in this video. We've heard from so many people that have learned the hard way, and we want nothing more than to help others reach their investment goals by avoiding these common mistakes.

This is a re-print from a post I made over a year ago.  I think its always good for Memphis real estate investors to get a refresher on the questions they should ask before buying investment properties.
