Welcome to "Building Passive Income Through
Real Estate". Happy Year from Firehorse Investments and
the whole FreeForeclosureSites.com team. We have been out
of touch for quite a while, but we are really looking forward
to coming back strong and return to providing a weekly newsletter
with real estate investing tips and techniques each week for
2007. While many areas of the US are finally settling down,
we have experienced an upswing recently in the real estate
market here in Salt Lake City, Utah. With the upswing, and
my recent marriage in September, I have decided to put my
house back on the market. I bought the house I am living in
now, as a foreclosure which I found through our site. Originally,
I purchased the house from the bank for $243,000. We are now
offering it for $347,900. That's a nice amount of equity over
two years. You may already know you can get comps from a realtor,
but you can now also get a lot of information online.
The website I used to determine my home's value
was Zillow.com. It is a great site that consolidates a lot
of information we used to have to go to many sites for.
For this weeks issue, I am featuring a couple
articles on private lending and real estate negotiation.
Anyone interested in reading more about market
conditions across the country should check out the following
website. Realtors from across the country give their view
of the market conditions in there areas on a weekly basis.
You can check out their views at Realty
Times.

Private Lending - The Key To Freedom And Real
Profit In Real Estate Investing
By Alan Cowgill
Most people don’t realize it, but obtaining money for real
estate deals has nothing to do with saving money for a down
payment, going to a bank, filling out an application, and
waiting to be approved.
In fact, if you’re going about things this way, as I did
for many years, you’re wasting time and losing money.
For me, discovering how to use private lenders in my real
estate business has been truly life altering. The amount of
money I make and the kind of work I do each day is incredible
to me. And not only is it possible, it’s really very simple.
If I can do it, anyone can.
For seventeen years I languished in a full-time corporate
position. I wasn’t happy and I was barely making ends meet.
I was thousands of dollars in debt and it was only getting
worse. It wasn’t the life I wanted. I felt that my life was
just ticking away. When I sat down and really faced things,
I knew in the end I could actually retire poor.
Something had to be done.
Real estate investing came to me in the form of an infomercial
at 2 a.m. on a Tuesday. The course piqued my interest, but
the cost was $159. Money was so tight, I didn’t have $159,
but I did have a credit card and the...

Real Estate Negotiation - The Art Of The Compromise
by Steve Gillman
Real estate negotiation is a book-length subject,
and one of those reasons why it can sometimes be a mistake
to sell your property on your own. A good real estate agent,
after all, should have some good negotiating skills learned
from experience. However, there are some things you can learn
a piece at a time, and this is one of them.
Of all the techniques of real estate negotiation, and of
negotiation in general, the compromise is one of the most
common. In fact, it is so much a normal part of negotiation,
that people often forget that it is a "technique."
Both sides expect to have to compromise on many points, and
it is the easiest way to settle a difference. How you arrive
at that compromise, though, is crucial.
Negotiating A Compromise
It is common for someone to say something like, "Look,
we're only $6000 apart now. You want to $204,000, and I want
$210,000. Why not split the difference and make it $207,000?"
This idea of "splitting the difference" has become
a cultural norm. Even if it isn't agreed to, it seems...
