Short Sale Flipping - How To Make $37,500 in 7 Days

 I have seen information like this offered on the Internet for as much as $4995, packaged in a nice DVD work book and forms.  Here is what you learn.

Short Sale Flipping.

Short sale flipping is a real estate investment technique that has become very popular recently. 

Here is how it works:  First you find a homeowner who is behind in his mortgage and owes more than the house is worth.  This should be easy as about 35% of the homes in the country are underwater.  Next, get the owner to sign a contract that says you will buy his house for 75% of the current value if the bank agrees to relieve him of the mortgage.

Now find a buyer that agrees to buy the house for 90% of the current value.  Lets assume the house is worth $250,000 and has a mortgage of $300,000.  You offer the bank $187,500.  You find a buyer to pay $225,000.   You just made $37,500.

Here is an article about folks that are doing this everyday.

Using geo-targeting in domain names to generate short sale leads

If you want to get short sale leads in your area you might want to get a domain that targets your specific area and combines your place name with the phrase "short sale". An example of this is http://south-lake-tahoe.shortsaleleads.org. This website is targeted to generate short sale leads in the South Lake Tahoe area. By integrating the place name in the domain name, the search engines will give higher relevance to your website.

Placing links back to your website with keyword anchors you also increase the ranking of your site and achieve a higher placement than a site that does not integrate the place name in the domain name. Be sure your site includes references in context to your target area.

Leadsnet Inc., offers short sale lead generation websites. These sites are made using our proprietary search engine optimization algorithms that get us top results.
