Gratitude is powerful. Here are nine things we can all use to leverage the power of gratitude this month.

It’s not always easy to keep up the habit of practicing gratitude as a part of morning routines. Yet, it is incredibly rewarding when we do take the time for it.

Even if things feel tougher right now, here are some of the things we can take a moment to be grateful for before we get into the season when most are focused on receiving and getting new things.

Low Interest Rates

While many might be experiencing the highest interest rates they’ve seen in their adult lifetimes, they are still historically very low. Wait until they hit 14% or 20% again.

If 5% or 7% still seems too high, then check out our current deal, with interest rates as low as 1%.

Opportunity And Ability To Invest In Real Estate

Just having the opportunity and ability to invest in real estate is a huge privilege and benefit. Many people will never realize that they have this chance to control their own financial circumstances.

The Tax Breaks Real Estate Has To Offer

Taxes are not fun. They only seem to be multiplying and going up. Fortunately, along with many other benefits, real estate offers a lot of tax breaks, if you take the time to take advantage of them.

The Freedom Being A Business Owner Offers

Owning your own real estate investment business gives you complete freedom over your own schedule. Many fail to exercise that freedom, and to take advantage of the flexibility or time off it provides. Though you do have control of that.

Convenience

It’s never been easier to invest in real estate. You can find and wholesale homes online without ever getting out of bed. You can get just about anything you want delivered to your job sites to complete house flips in two days.

Humans

As technology continues to take over, and the major flaws in AI, automation, and cybersecurity become even more glaringly obvious, it’s a great time to be grateful for humans. Even if they aren’t perfect either. Those in your family, that serve you, and that work for you, and who are your customers. You can’t make it without them.

Room For Growth

There is plenty of room to do more, and expand and scale what you are working on. Even if you aren’t satisfied with your current situation, be grateful there is so much available for you to do.

The Progress You’ve Made So Far

Even if you feel like you are going to fall far short of your goals this year and there is so much more you aspire to, take a moment to remember the progress you’ve made. No matter how significant you feel it is, celebrate those wins.

How Many People There Are To Help

There are millions of people out there that could use your help. They may need to sell or buy properties, or invest. Each one is an opportunity to grow your business, and to feel great that you are making a difference.

 

Who can you be flipping your wholesale homes to now?

If you want to wholesale more properties, wholesale faster, and make more profit, it helps to know who the most active buyers are in the market. There is more than one type of buyer for wholesale houses. Bulk up your list with them.

Rehabbers

Rehabbers and fix and flip investors are still one of the top buyers of wholesale homes. They need this inventory to fuel their businesses and incomes. Having a consistent source of wholesale deals allows them to stay focused on what they do best (fixing). This is becoming even more important as house flippers look for new areas to work in, with more opportunities.

Rental Property Investors

Rental property investors also need to keep their pipelines full of new acquisitions. They are needing to dig deeper and deeper to find house deals where numbers work. Some may want to make renovations and improvements, others won’t.

Other Wholesalers

While it’s important not to get tied up in long chains, other wholesalers with bigger buyer lists, and who can handle more volume may be some of your best contacts. These may be other pure wholesalers, investors looking to owner finance and create new mortgage loan notes from these properties, and even funds.

Retail Home Buyers

Regular home buyers are increasingly looking for wholesale house deals too. Too many other properties are being overpriced, and inexperienced and unrealistic agents and sellers are overpricing and have little in the way of negotiation skills. Today’s buyers want to feel as if they are getting a good deal. Some may take more work than other wholesalers, but they may pay more too.

Non-Profits

Nonprofits and not for profits are also looking for affordable housing supply to supply their users with, or to house workers and those they help. They may even buy your deal in bulk.

Home Builders

Small builders are often finding it more profitable to acquire existing properties and fully renovating them instead of building from the ground up. It can be greener too. Even larger builders often need to piece together larger parcels to put new communities and projects on. It’s much easier for them to work with wholesalers than regular homeowners.
