Agents have used technology to bolster their marketing for years, so it should come as no surprise that tech companies are eager to take back control and get a slice of the pie. The only question is, how can agents compete with them?   Are small teams destined to fail in the face of big business competitors, or do we both stand to win? Just how big of an advantage do iBuyers have, and what do human agents have that tech players don't?    In this episode, repeat victim of the show and host of the Agent Investor podcast, Tom Cafarella shares how to continue to thrive when tech companies are determined to take the market.    Three Things You'll Learn in This Episode    Why iBuyers are outbidding mom and pop investors What do iBuyers stand to gain by outbidding investors, especially when the bids seem like a poor decision?    How to hit iBuyers in their weak spot iBuyers have a ton of advantages over us, but they do have a weak spot, too. What is it, and how can we take advantage of it?   The market GUARANTEED to keep seeking out human agents Which market segment is most likely to work with real agents in the long term?   Guest Bio Tom Cafarella is an entrepreneur, speaker, podcaster, coach, and seasoned real estate investor.

Many agents feel apprehensive about getting into the investing side of real estate, and the current competitiveness in the market doesn't help those hesitations.    However, for those who are willing to leap, investing could be the thing that takes their business to the next level.   How does an agent make the shift to an investor? Can we use the investment side of things to bolster our existing real estate businesses?   How do we even begin to identify great deals when we're new to the investing space?    In this episode, I’m joined by the host of the Agent Investor Podcast and co-founder of Ocean City Development, Tom Cafarella. We discuss how agents can maximize their results with real estate investing. "The great news for agents saying they're not investors is, you don't need to be. Team up! There are so many people out there with cash, and it won't take much time to find investors." -Tom Cafarella     Three Things You’ll Learn In This Episode     What to do if we don't feel comfortable investing Not everyone feels comfortable investing, so don't be afraid to team up. A simple Facebook post can be all it takes to connect with potential partners.     How investing allows us to maximize every opportunity Often, agents will go into a property, assess that it needs a lot of work to go to market, and that marks the end of the road, but it doesn't have to be.   Why investing is a great fallback option for every agent Most of the time, sellers prefer listing their properties to taking a cash deal, but there is a small percentage who won't. How can you create a service offering that meets the needs of those sellers?  Guest Bio-    Tom Cafarella is an entrepreneur, real estate investor, speaker, and coach. As founder of Ocean City Development, Tom and his team have purchased hundreds of homes. As the founder/broker of Cameron Real Estate Group, Tom also leads a team of 200+ agents serving homeowners and buyers all over greater Boston and Massachusetts.   Host of the Agent Investor Podcast, Tom has also been featured on industry podcasts such as Real Estate Investing Secrets, Level Up with Greg Harrelson, Team Building Podcast with Jeff Cohn, Investing in Real Estate with Clayton Morris, Deal Farm, Real Estate Locker Room, Cash Flow Guys and many more.   To find out more, go to: https://www.cameronrealestategroup.com/tom-cafarella/  http://www.tomcafarella.com/  https://www.linkedin.com/in/tom-cafarella-oceancitydevelopment-110835a9/  https://m.youtube.com/channel/UCBaMfwcNTLed8O5XtpRVtfQ https://m.facebook.com/tommy.cafarella  https://agentinvestor.podbean.com/

Renovations on residential properties can bring massive returns, but they can also incur a lot of costs, and as investors, we need to be aware of those ahead of time.   Estimating the price of renovations can be tricky, especially for newbie investors, but knowing what we're getting ourselves into is a vital part of staying on track. The question is, where do we start?   How can we get a better idea of the type of refurbishment we'll be doing, and how can we calculate how much it will cost us? Are there any renovations we should be steering clear of?   In this episode, Ocean City Development's construction manager, Jim Cooke shares how he approaches renovations in single-family investment properties.   "It's important to know the level of renovation before getting started, because there are so many things you can do to so many properties if your goal is to make it perfect." -Tom Cafarella   Three Things You'll Learn In This Episode   ▪️ What to do before viewing a property in person:  Take a look at comps online before visiting a property. This gives us a good idea of the standard home in the neighborhood and can be used as a checklist when we do see it in person.   ▪️ How to get a more accurate idea of the costs:  It's never a bad idea to take a contractor along when viewing a property, especially when we're new to renovations. Doing so will come at a cost, but the worst that can come from it is an informed second opinion that might just save us money in the long term.     ▪️ The properties new investors should avoid altogether:  Major renovations can bring major returns, but only if we know what we're doing. When we're new to the space, our best bet is to stick with small, cosmetic renovations that carry minimal risk.   Guest Bio: Jim Cooke is the construction manager at Ocean City Development. He deals with everything from smaller deals like fix and flips to bigger projects, and his day to day typically consists of going on scopes and creating renovation budgets.   To find out more, go to: https://www.facebook.com/jim.cooke.79025 https://www.oceancitydevelopment.com/

As a member of my Mojo Elite Group, you’ll learn how to generate your own seller leads and potentially get paid to make face-to-face seller appointments for our brokerage.Join Our TeamWhat is my Mojo Elite Group and how can it help you as an agent?First, I’ll back up for a second. Mojo is the three-line dialer we use to call people directly, whether they’re old seller leads, old buyer leads, or we’re just circle prospecting to a particular neighborhood. We typically call up to 100 people per hour. There are a bunch of benefits to using it, and if you want to learn more about it, just Google “Mojo Dialer.”Now, in order to qualify to be a member of the Mojo Elite Group, you have to be on the dialer for a minimum of 10 hours per week (which Mojo tracks for you). If you hit those 10 hours, you’ll receive some great benefits, including one-on-one coaching that’s specific to Mojo. Once a week, the entire group will conduct an hour-long session where we’ll go over the struggles that each one of us has had and how we can use the best practices to convert more calls into appointments, and more appointments into deals. If you’re a newer agent who’s using Mojo for the first time and you’re not confident how to turn an appointment into a deal, we’ll pair you with a more experienced agent in the group who’s closed tons of deals in the past who will accompany you on listing appointments.  This group is for people who want to use Mojo Dialer to generate their own seller leads. Additionally, I have a database of cell phone records for all the homes I want to buy in the greater Boston area, and if you’re willing to call the lists for those houses and book appointments for them, we’ll pay you $100 per appointment. By doing this, you’ll get a great listing opportunity or acquisition potential for Ocean City Development and earn direct income on a week-to-week basis that can subsidize your real estate commissions. This group is for people who want to use Mojo Dialer to generate their own seller leads, gain valuable experience from other agents, and get paid to make face-to-face seller appointments. If you’d like to learn more about how to qualify for the Mojo Elite Group or you want to know more about our brokerage in general, visit www.workingwithinvestors.com and enter your name and email.

I’d be happy to help you.

Tom Cafarella is a real estate investor, speaker, and the owner of Ocean City Development, a real estate firm that puts the needs of their clients first. Before becoming a real estate investor, Tom was on track to becoming a doctor, a profession he chose because it was the most lucrative at the time.   Tom was focused on completing his medical degree when he picked up Robert Kiyosaki's “Rich Dad, Poor Dad” audio book. He realized that his career path in medicine wasn't the right fit for him. Tom quickly pivoted, changed degrees and turned his attention to business and accounting. His post college accounting career path was short lived when he was fired for daydreaming (researching real estate). Tom jumped into the real estate game and began taking massive action to make ends meet.   In this episode, Tom shares the story about his entrepreneur's journey into the real estate industry and the many obstacles that he had to overcome along the way. He drills into why it's important to do what you love and why you shouldn't lie to yourself when it comes to choosing a career. Tom reveals his tricks to finding qualified sellers as well as provides examples of how to always stay one step ahead of the competition.   Five Key Points: The harder the task, the less competition you will have. The first step in a new venture is always the hardest. Our number one job as investors is to find opportunities and take advantage of them. There's no direct career path to real estate investing and that is why guidance from a mentor is necessary. Most new investors make the mistake of having a preconceived notion of what it should take to get a good deal   Pro tip: Prioritize your time and complete the hardest task for the day first.   Thank you Tom for taking the time to share your expertise on finding properties ahead of the competition.

Tom Cafarella and his company Ocean City Development buys houses in and around Massachusetts (and other areas too!). We’re not listing your house… we’re actually the ones buying your house. Because we pay cash, we’re able to close quickly… or on your schedule. Like we’ve mentioned, when you work with us there are no fees… like there are when you list your house with an agent. What this means to you is you don’t have to worry about extra costs, having to come out of pocket to sell your house fast, or even getting your house ready for a sale (we’ll buy your house as-is). Don’t worry about repairing or cleaning up your property. We’ll buy your house in as-is condition… no matter how ugly or pretty it is… no matter the location http://www.sellyourbostonhousefast.com/
