Extreme Makover Indiana - Part Three

Posted: Monday, October 26 2009 at 04:28PM

Part 3: GoGladiator Media went out late at night to see if this really was a 104 hour operation, or just some kind of Hollywood editing magic. We were floored to see the house already framed and standing tall! This is all FOR REAL everybody, and done through the HUGE hearts of great people and amazing sponsors!

 

From the minute you enter Kokomo and head north to Bunker Hill, you can feel all of the positive energy in the air. This experience is a great case study in how the power of positive pulls a community together for a common cause, and that people are willing to put aside all of life's personal problems to help others. (Go-Giver Principals in action!)

Extreme Makeover Home Edition

Another BIG THANK YOU to all of the volunteers, sponsors, staff, security, Hallmark Homes, Anderson University, Ball State University, Grissom Air Force Base and ABC Extreme Makeover for everything you are doing for the Cowan-Brown family. Part 4 will be release tomorrow, and this is our interview with the great Brad King who is helping put all of the social media coverage together for Hallmark Homes with over 40 students of Ball State.

A Gladiator Honors His Fallen Heroes - Memorial Day 2009

Posted: Monday, May 25 2009 at 02:12PM

To all of my Brothers and Sisters:

You have given us the greatest gift humanly possible, FREEDOM! I honor, thank, remember, and love you for all your sacrifices.

TAPS
by Major General Daniel Butterfield

Fading light dims the sight,
And a star gems the sky, gleaming bright.
From afar drawing nigh — Falls the night.

Day is done, gone the sun,
From the lake, from the hills, from the sky.
All is well, safely rest, God is nigh.

Then good night, peaceful night,
Till the light of the dawn shineth bright,
God is near, do not fear — Friend, good night.

Here is the story of WWII Bataan Death March Survivor, Chief Warrant Officer Melvin H. Nesteby (USA-Ret.).Melvin passed away a few days ago, but left us this amazing video showing the passion that was in his heart for our country.

I would like to thank the Evergreen Freedom Foundation for sharing his story with the world on this Memorial Day, 2009.

Great Quotes

"It doesn't take a hero to order men into battle. It takes a hero to be one of those men who go into battle." ~Norman Schwarzkopf

"We pray and we resolve to keep holy the memory of those who have died for our country and to make thier cause inseparably our own." ~Ronald Reagan

845

"Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal." ~From a headstone in Ireland

"I have never been able to think of the day as one of mourning; I have never quite been able to feel that half-masted flags were appropriate on Decoration Day. I have rather felt that the flag should be at the peak, because those whose dying we commemorate rejoiced in seeing it where their valor placed it. We honor them in a joyous, thankful, triumphant commemoration of what they did." ~Benjamin Harrison

848

"Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe to assure the survival and the success of liberty." ~John F. Kennedy

The Danger of "isms" and the Real Estate Market

Posted: Friday, May 15 2009 at 11:23AM

I discovered this video to be very current given the changes we are facing in our country, and would like to share this with everyone.

At first glance, you might ask me how this can be current since it was actually produced back in 1948? I thought the same thing, but after watching it, found the content to be as powerful of a message today as it must have been over 6 decades ago.

 

What does this have to do with real estate?

Everything!

Let me explain: The date is May 15, 2009, and the government now controls the banks (via the TARP), and the values (via the HVCC). This should concern EVERYONE greatly. The real estate "free market" is gone, and the Politicians are in a position to manipulate everything. Companies are being forced into bankruptcy as the banks are told to get what the auditors consider "Toxic Assets" (code word: anything to do with real estate) off the books.

CP Morgan here in Indianapolis is a prime example of this manipulation. The bank re-negotiated with the developer, then basically "changed their minds" as to their commitment. It forced CP Morgan into bankruptcy, when they had the ability, through the banks, to weather the storm.

The way I see it, the BIG Banks will get their money back later by owning the commercial/big development property, and the government gets repaid by us, the taxpayer. If you force all of the mid-investors out of the market by cutting off the money supply, force them into bankruptcy, and manipulate valuations very low, what happens? The large financial institutions now own everything, will manipulate the prices back up, then sell them back to the very same people they crushed in the first place, all while having a windfall of profits.

If you feel I am way off base, let me know in the comments section. I have been pounding my head against the wall trying to figure all of this out, and this is the only real theory I could create to make sense of it all.

If true, it is very sad, but genius at the same time.

824

I seldom discuss political type issues in the public forum, and it is not my intent to spark any political arguments by sharing this. I just feel an obligation to keep people thinking, and I find incredible value in sharing ideas with one another. It is understandable that we become complacent in a time of turmoil, but we must accept the fact that there is no easy way out of this economic downturn.

The good news is we are a part of the greatest country in the world, and I have faith the people will band together, create solutions, and continue down the roads that will lead us back to prosperity!

If anybody can do it, we can!

Have a Profitable Day Everyone!

Three basic tips:



  1. Surround Yourself with the Right People

  3. Spend the Money You Do Have Wisely


While some of this might seem like common sense, many of us often fall prey to outside forces and fall into some bad habits by losing focus.

Attention Investors: Do Not Let This Happen To You!

Posted: Thursday, May 07 2009 at 02:28AM

I just took over the property management on a property that was just not dealt with correctly!


As you view the video, I offer up a few tips on how you can avoid this trap so that it does not happen to you!









When you invest, you have a responsibility for the investment, to yourself, the Property Manager, and your Tenants. If you work with the wrong people, or try to cut corners, bad things usually happen.


There are no short cuts in real estate!


Please take this information to heart, and I promise that you will be more successful!

Do You Have What It Takes to be Successful?

Posted: Thursday, April 30 2009 at 02:30AM

I wanted to share a 12 question quiz, and I REALLY want you to think about them before you answer.

794

Take out a sheet of paper, read the statements aloud, then write down if you: Agree or Disagree

  1. I read self-help and motivational books, but can not seem to apply them into my own life.
  2. My financial situation is frustrating!
  3. I suffer from paralysis by analysis.
  4. I feel like I am not as good, or as qualified, as my competitors/co-workers.
  5. I am afraid of the word NO!
  6. I try to be all things to all people, and feel there is no other option.
  7. I start a lot of projects, but never seem to finish them.
  8. I keep getting very close to success/promotion, but never seem to make it.
  9. I feel like I am doing all I can, but it is never enough.
  10. I feel guilty asking others for help or money.
  11. I often cower and let others win.
  12. I often allow myself to be undercharged/undervalued for my work and/or services.

If you wrote down agree more than once, there is some work we can do to help improve!!

The goal is to get you to think about our weaknesses, and get to work on them. The good news is that we have the ability to overcome all of these things, and you can create a solid action plan to help achieve that goal.

I will be committing to a 12 part series addressing all of these topics, so if you are interested, please subscribe to my blog and get ready to MAKE IT HAPPEN!

Gladiator Top Secret Eco-Mission (aka The Tale of Two Bunnies)

Posted: Friday, April 24 2009 at 02:51AM

Experience Earth Day, Gladiator Style!

Our dogs found a nest of baby bunnies in our backyard, and unfortunately, they ate three (almost 4) of them. So we worked hard to save the two that surived, and my children named them Jasper & Casper!

It was a long, hard road and we lost one of them......Jasper R.I.P 2009

The good news is that were able to save Casper! We decided that Earth Day was the most obvious day, and he was ready, to be released back into the wild!



It was an emotional day, but it really feels wonderful to have saved a life and be confident that we made the planet a better place today!

 

Do not forget to check out my good friend Jon Zorrer's website: www.REITVShow.com  He is a fellow Real Estate Investment V-blogger in New Jersey, and doing a fantastic job!

That's it for this edition of the Diary, see you soon!

4 Simple Earth Day Tips.....Lets Make a Difference!

Posted: Wednesday, April 22 2009 at 03:36PM

I often wonder how important this day really is to people. You always hear folks talking about being eco-friendly, but how many of us actually follow through?

Do you shrug it off as just another day, or do you utilize the time to re-evaluate your carbon footprint and focus on a few small changes to make a difference in the world.

764

It really does not take a lot of work, let me share with you 4 easy ways to make it happen!

1. It can start with something as small as turning off your lights and television!

2. If you use a lot of ink on your printer, do you just discard the cartridges? They can be recycled!

3. Change the filters in your HVAC system. (You should do it anyway, yuck!)

4. Spend more time at home! You will not burn as much fuel, and you can simply play games and enjoy your family!

It really is that easy! These tips will not only help the environment, they will SAVE YOU MONEY!

Happy Earth Day Everyone!!

Fannie Mae Homestyle® Program: Happy Real Estate Investing!

Posted: Thursday, April 09 2009 at 01:57AM

If you are an investor who is looking to buy and hold a Fannie Mae owned property that needs rehabbed, we have great news for you!

Fannie Mae has a fantastic loan program that mirrors the popular HomePath mortgage program, but tweaked just for the investor.

It is called the Fannie Mae Homestyle® Renovation Mortgage Program.

722

This program lets the borrower combine the cost of the purchase price, and the rehab costs!

At closing, all funds for your rehab will be escrowed in an interest-bearing account. After all the construction work is complete, any remaining funds in the escrow account will be used to pay down the principal balance of the mortgage!!!!!!!!!!

Buyers can pretty much do any type of repairs to the property that they want to, as long as the appraisal supports the value! You have 6 months to do the work, and the rehab costs cannot exceed 50% of the after repair value.

Homestyle® Features:

  • Loan amount based on completed value but capped at the current FannieMae loan limits.
  • Low 5% minimum down payment
  • 700+ credit score and verifiable income required
  • Virtually unlimited on types of repairs but funds for renovation are capped at 50% of the completed value of the property.
  • Second homes and investment properties allowed (some limitations apply)
  • Fixed or Adjustable rates (ARM’s) available
  • Can finance up to six months of mortgage payments for owner-occupied properties to cover non-occupancy costs during construction. For example, if you have to spend six months renting an apartment while your home renovation takes place; you can roll those expenses into your loan amount.

If you have any questions about this program, give us a call and we will get you pointed in the direction of a Gladiator Approved Mortgage Professional that can make a real estate investments happen for you!

Diary of a Real Estate Gladiator III

Posted: Friday, March 27 2009 at 03:06AM

Today the Gladiator/codeRed Team has started on the new rehab project, and I am introducing the Lil’ Gladiator!

Lets see what the house looks like as the demolition has already begun!

 

Gladiator can help you buy homes for 30% to 40% of value, we can do the rehab, and you either keep for cash flow, or re-sell.

If you are looking for something more turn-key, we can do that too!!!!!…….and even offer a “ZERO DOWN PROGRAM” to boot!

For more information, give us a call anytime at (317) 871-1000

Have a Profitable Day Everyone!

Video Diary of a Real Estate Gladiator Vol II

Posted: Sunday, March 22 2009 at 12:08AM

The question that is looming over ever investors mind is this:

“Has the real estate market hit the bottom?”

 

I am a firm believer that we will find a whole lot of opportunity in these tough economic times. For those of us that work hard, stay hungry, and create solutions to these tough challenges, there will be great reward!

My advice is to get out there, get active, and MAKE REAL ESTATE HAPPEN!!!

Have a Profitable Day Everyone!

Is Social Networking Growing Up?

Posted: Tuesday, March 17 2009 at 07:30PM

I thought it would be nice to have some fun today!

There is all kind of buzz going on right now about Twitter. It is being used by Fox News, CNN, and other major media outlets.There has also been some heavy promotion by The Ellen Show, Diddy, and Jimmy Fallon.

- Is it a great social networking tool?

- Will it be good for you business?

- Can you buy and sell real estate via Twitter?

Well…….I do not know yet. I am Tweeting, but the jury is still out on if this is an addictive time waster, or a productive business tool of the future.

One thing I do know, it sure is fun to TWEET!

Here is a funny video that someone shared with me by Tweet, via YouTube, that I am sharing on BiggerPockets in my blog! (Social Networking in action!)

.........…….Enjoy!

 

Funny stuff, but is it accurate?

Maybe to a point, but as you can see below, I have a profile on FaceBook, Twitter, BiggerPockets, and Linkedin. I also utilize YouTube as well.

I have seen the most value from BiggerPockets for real estate investment contacts/education, and Linkedin for Corporate connections.

At the end of the day, Social networking is growing up, and I am confident that people in business will be using these types of tools more and more as they keep evolving.

This is the type of technology that business folks will need to embrace, or they might get left behind!

Have a Profitable Day Everyone!
