Make Money While You Sleep: Why I Love Real Estate Investing
May 31, 2008
Money in real estate is what the big stories are made of, and why we stick with it despite the many challenges (and we’ve seen challenges from property managers robbing rent money from us, to fire code violations leading to court appearances). But, if you’re still thinking about investing in real estate and you haven’t yet, let me tell you what the best part about owning rental properties is: You Make Money in Your Sleep! Let’s look at the advantages, and just how you can close your eyes and make money:
* The leveraging advantage;
* Powerful Return on Investment (ROI);
* Tax write-offs;
* Tangible asset class;
* Residual income/equity building; and
* Limited land supply.
Real Estate Advantage: Leverage.
In a nutshell, this refers to the idea of using OPM (other people’s money) to help purchase property. In most cases, we obtain a mortgage from a bank for upwards of 85% of the value of the property. This allows us to use less of our own money to build wealth thru appreciation, positive cash flow, and rent covering principal and interest repayment. There are not too many other investment options that allow us to invest in only 15-25% of the asset while obtaining 100% of the return.
Real Estate Advantage: ROI.
If you put down $25,000 on a $100,000 rental property, with 5% annual appreciation, approx. 2% principal payback, and 1% positive cashflow from your rent collected, that will earn you $5,000 + $2,000 + $1,000 = $8,000 in your first year. Divide this into your original down payment of $25,000, your first year ROI is 32%! Just imagine what your ROI would be if the property appreciated 10% in a year (if you guessed 52% you’d be right)!
Real Estate Advantage: Tax write-offs.
Of course, you should speak with your accountant before determining exactly what you can and can’t write-off, but there are plenty of expenses that you can write off when you own real estate. A few of these items include: interest paid on the mortgage, operating costs such as heat, hydro, insurance, property management, even some of your closing costs can be written off. In addition, your accountant may even advise you to depreciate your building which helps at tax time too!
Real Estate Advantage: Tangible asset class.
Owning a rental property is owning something tangible. You can kick it, smell it, touch it, and I suppose even taste it (not advisable but you could)! Buying 100 shares in a company is really just a paper-based asset. Financial trouble or internal turmoil are not immediately apparent to the shareholders. Did the CEO just sell all his shares? You don’t know until you read about it in the paper. Now, I am not saying not to put your money in the stock market. I proudly own shares in many different companies. I am simply saying that if you are wondering how your property is doing, go do a drive-by or ask a friend to. Order an appraisal to check it’s current market value. I love the idea that at any given time, I know what is going on in my property.
Real Estate Advantage: Making Money while you Sleep.
As the title of this article suggests, real estate allows you to build equity, and if you have positive monthly cashflow, make money even while you sleep! You don’t have to work at real estate everyday like a regular job. If you buy well and manage (or hire a property manager to manage) the property well, you will make money on it without working on it very often. Even if the market is depressed a property where the rent covers the costs still makes money even if the value has depreciated.
Real Estate Advantage: Limited land supply.
The amount of land we have on Earth is limited. It’s even more limited in all the world’s major cities. Yes, urban sprawl tends to push out cities boundaries, however, there is a limit to how far people want to live away from a city’s downtown core (or wherever the majority of workplaces are located). Because of this, land value will always increase over the long run. Supply and demand is a powerful theory especially when it comes to real estate. My parents used to live not far from where my wife and I live now. Thirty-five years ago, houses in this area were selling for a meager $20,000. Now, houses are selling for $700,000 to over $1 million! Imagine if you bought 3 houses putting $5,000 down on each 35 years ago. Your $15,000 would now be valued around $2,000,000!. How’s that for ROI?

Growing Demand For Buy-to-Let Mortgages
May 31, 2008
The constantly evolving buy-to-let mortgage market has been contributing to the increase in demand for investment properties ever since buy-to-let investing became a mainstream form of investing. Ever since buy-to-let mortgages were first introduced to the UK in the mid-1990s, demand for private rental properties has increased considerably.
Many people consider investing in property as a means of funding their retirement. By investing in property people may not have to rely on underperforming pensions and equity based investments to provide for their later years. There is substantial proof that investing in property is more than just a hobby, with more than half of all landlords owning more than one buy-to-let property.
The growth of the investment property market owes a lot to the evolution of the buy-to-let mortgage market. In 1996 there were only a few lenders offing buy-to-let mortgage products that would allow would-be landlords to invest in the local property market. Since then dozens of specialist lenders have released buy-to-let mortgage products ensuring that modern-day investors have plenty of choice. This has helped many investors to grow their portfolios from small-scale operations to large, multi-million pound empires.
Without the availability of accessible buy-to-let mortgage products it would be virtually impossible for many landlords to achieve such levels of success. The majority of all residential investment property in the UK is financed primarily with a mortgage and a cash deposit. The mortgage normally provides the majority of the total funds required to purchase the investment property. Without the availability of such finance, the buy-to-let industry would not have boomed.
In more recent years overseas finance companies have also entered the UK buy-to-let mortgage market which has lead to an unprecedented level of choice. This has helped to reduce costs such as application fees and interest rates ensuring that more people than ever can invest in property. Local lenders now have to compete with overseas lenders and the increased competition has resulted in more competitive products for consumers.
Buy-to-let mortgages are also available to UK residents for buying overseas property. Parts of Europe – such as Spain, Italy, and France – as well as Florida, Australia, and the Caribbean have become popular with UK based buy-to-let investors in recent years. This trend becomes stronger when the local UK market experiences a downturn. During such times avid property investors who are hungry for new properties to add to their portfolios simply look to foreign markets to satisfy their needs.
Buy-to-let mortgage products have also become more sophisticated with some products starting to offer equity release facilities. Investors can release equity to either fund their retirement or to buy more property. The growing sophistication and accessibility of buy-to-let mortgage products for both UK and overseas property has helped demand for property investment grow steadily over the years and should continue to do so in the future. Despite some periods of turmoil property is regarded as a secure and long term investment that should stand the test of time provided the right properties are purchased with the best buy-to-let mortgages that are available.

Overview Of Adverse Credit Mortgages
May 31, 2008
There are a number of reasons why people may be categorised as having adverse credit, including; County Court Judgments, mortgage arrears, loan defaults, or bankruptcy. People who are in such a situation and who wish to buy property will most likely need to apply for adverse credit mortgages. Such borrowers are normally excluded from the high street mortgage market.
It is generally accepted that approximately one in four people in the UK have an adverse credit history. This means that the market for adverse credit mortgages is quite large. Because so many UK residents experience poor credit, a large number of lenders offer adverse credit mortgages to suit their needs.
Such lenders are usually contactable through an independent mortgage broker. There are so many adverse credit mortgages that it is difficult for an inexperienced individual to sift through the hundreds of products available at any one time and choose the one that is best suited to their situation. Independent mortgage brokers, however, have specialist software to help with the process. Experienced brokers should be able to offer advice for almost any credit situation imaginable.
Also, because independent mortgage brokers are not tied to particular lenders, they are able to offer unbiased advice on which adverse credit mortgages and lenders are best suited to your particular circumstances. If an applicant contacts a lender directly they will be restricted to applying for only the products that the lender offers. An independent broker can offer whole of market advice.
The terms and conditions of adverse credit mortgages can differ somewhat from products offered by high-street lenders to people with “clean credit.” Most notably, adverse credit mortgages usually contain higher interest rates and penalties for early repayments. However, the products must still be affordable, otherwise borrows would be forced to endure arrears, defaults, and possible repossession if they could not keep up with their mortgage payments.
Adverse credit mortgages are therefore competitive and the excess interest payable should not leave borrowers in financial distress if their situation does not change substantially from the time they applied for the loan. There is also a high level of competition between lenders in the adverse credit mortgage market meaning that bargains are regularly available for customers who require such products.
Despite the demand from borrowers and the competition from the lenders the adverse credit mortgage market is subject to the conditions of the economy as a whole and the financial markets. This means that this particular type of home loan product can be difficult to find if the credit markets experience a dry spell. While this can be frustrating, the market for mortgages for people with credit impairments is huge so any dry spells shouldn’t last too long.
Because of the complexity of the market people who suffer from adverse credit should not research the market alone and should not apply for a mortgage until they have received impartial advice. Applicants should therefore contact an independent mortgage broker to receive expert and impartial advice before applying for any number of adverse credit mortgages available today.

Alternatives To Remortgages
May 31, 2008
Unlocking equity that has built up in a property can be achieved through a number of means including refinancing your home. Remortgages are carried out by home owners who want to release the equity in their home and apply for a new mortgage at the same time. They can either be carried out with the same lender that the borrower has their existing loan with, or with a different lender altogether.
All remortgages that release equity will result in the balance of the new mortgage being higher than the balance of the old loan. The old loan balance is paid off with the funds from the refinance product and the excess is given to the borrower and will represent the amount of equity that has been released.
While remortgages are extremely popular in the UK, there is an alternative method of equity release that will not require the home owner applying for a new mortgage and redeeming their existing one. Second mortgages are a popular and effective alternative. Second mortgages are also known as secured loans and are essentially loans that are secured against the equity in the borrower’s home.
Instead of applying for a brand new home loan, the borrower will keep their existing product and secure a second mortgage against the releasable equity in their property. Secured loans must be issued by a different lender to the lender that issued the existing mortgage.
Both remortgages and second mortgages have advantages and disadvantages. Because second mortgages are similar to personal loans in that they are issued for a short term, they may be the most sensible option when the finance is required for a short period of time.
However, refinancing with a new mortgage can involve paying large application and brokerage fees. The longer the time period you stay with the home loan the more value you will receive out of paying for those fees.
Secured loans usually incur smaller fees than remortgages. There is no need, therefore, to keep the second mortgage active for a long period of time to gain some pay-back from any fees that may be incurred in securing the loan. Some second mortgages also offer facilities such as a cheque book and ATM card for draw downs, and a deposit book for making repayments.
Not all secured loans offer such options so it is advisable to shop around if you require them. Also keep in mind that extra fees may be incurred so ensure that you actually require the extra facilities before signing on the dotted line.
If you require any advice on refinancing your home you should contact an independent adviser for help. An independent broker can offer advice on the entire home loan market and can therefore help to find the most appropriate product for your personal situation. Independent broker keep up to date with the mortgage market and have software that can search all products that are available at any given time. This can help you to find the best product possible to refinance your home based on your personal financial situation.

What Is A Self-Certification Mortgage?
May 31, 2008
A self-certification mortgage is a method a declaring income that will be suited to an applicant who may have sources of income which are not easy to prove. Many people believe that a self-cert is a type of home loan but it is important to note that self-certification is not a type of product, rather it is a method of declaring income.
There are a number of different situations in which a mortgage applicant may not be able to provide full and verifiable proof of their income. This includes applicants who are self-employed, company directors, freelance workers, or workers who receive their income on an irregular basis through commissions and bonuses.
In many cases the actual income of the applicant may have been minimized for taxation purposes. Self-employed workers, for example, may utilize various tax minimization techniques in order to save on income tax and company tax. When it comes time to apply for a mortgage their actual earnings may be understated, leading to a situation in which they are able to borrow a smaller amount than they can actually afford.
In addition to this, many self-employed workers do not keep accurate or complete records of income earned and therefore may not be able to supply several years of trading accounts to lenders upon application for a mortgage. This can make it difficult to secure a full-status mortgage from a high-street lender.
A self-certification mortgage is designed to help people in situations such as these. The mortgage application is based on affordability and the ability of the applicant to repay the loan, but does not require proof of income. Instead of providing trading accounts, payslips or any other proof of income, the applicant must certify that they have sufficient income to service the repayments when they self-certify their income.
At any one time, there are a variety of home loan products available from various lenders with which applicants can self-certify their incomes. The products are usually available in a form in which income is not self-certified but instead is fully declared and proven. The self-cert option is sometimes made available to self-employed applicants on the same products so they are not excluded from the market.
Often lenders will require self-cert applicants to pay higher interest rates than their standard applicants for the same products. This is because of the perceived higher level of risk for applicants who are not asked to prove their incomes. For the same reason a larger deposit is also often required and depending on the loan to value ratio applied for a higher lending charge may also be levied.
Because terms and conditions vary so much between products it is always a good idea to speak to a mortgage broker to receive up to date information and advice. The terms and conditions attached to home loans are also subject to frequent changes. An astute broker will keep abreast of the market and will therefore be an invaluable source of information for mortgages which allow self-certification of income. A qualified broker will also help with the application process, usually for a small fee.

Prepaid Credit Cards For Children
May 31, 2008
Teach money management skills with prepaid credit cards for children!
So many adults have learned the hard way that money management skills are important in today’s society. Before the age of credit cards, it was far more difficult to get into more debt than you could handle. Credit cards aren’t going away anytime soon. So it just makes sense that we teach our kids how to manage their finances responsibly and realistically.
In fact, statistics indicate that a majority of recent high school graduates cannot balance a checkbook! This spells trouble for our kids in the future. Ironically, one great way to teach kids about money management is with prepaid credit cards for children.
All parents know that kids think that there is a bottomless pit of money from which to draw and purchase every toy and goodie they spot. It’s hard to make them understand the relative value of money. When a child is about twelve years old, the prepaid credit cards for kids can provide eye-opening lessons and perspectives on the value of money.
If you were coming of age back in the 1970s, you surely remember the loads of credit cards taht flooded your mailbox. Credit card companies made the proposition so attractive, who could resist? As a result, plenty of people got in financial trouble that was hard to rectify.
With prepaid credit cards for children, you can put the shoe on the other foot. Kids yearn to be in control of some aspects of their lives. How many times have you heard your kids say, “Hey, Mom, it’s only $20!” Well, parents, here’s your chance to teach them what $20 means in the bigger picture. Whereas $20 is nothing when it’s coming out of Mom’s wallet, a $20 bill placed in their hands is another story.
For maximum effect, begin with the purchase of your kids prepaid credit card in the amount of $50. An impressive amount indeed. Make it clear that they are in complete control of how they use the available funds, but once it’s spent, don’t come to you looking for more. Let the child know how long this windfall must last.
Explain the concept behind this prepaid credit card for children. It’s a step into the grown-up world of money. The kids must understand that, although they can go into almost any store and make a purchase, the available money decreases with each purchase. Buying a soda and a bag of chips depletes their buying power and may also incur a transaction fee for using the card.
You should suggest that the kids make a list of toys, videos or whatever their heart desires for that month and that they price shop to see how far their kids prepaid credit card funds will go. Tell them to save their receipts. Then is the time to leave them to their own devices.
Using prepaid credit cards for children as a life lesson may save them much heartache in the future. Look online for credit cards that fit your family needs.

Military Interest Rate Cap - A Heated Issue With Capping Military Loans
May 31, 2008
Many military personnel join into the armed forces with the intention of serving the country at a very young age. At this age, they are often immature in terms of handling their financial conditions. With the meager pay that they get, they are often cash-strapped and unable to cater to all the needs of their family. For this purpose, many military personnel opt to apply for loans to overcome the financial difficulties and to own assets like a home.
Being ignorant of the workings of the modern world, they often fall prey to unscrupulous elements who take advantage of them while providing a loan. Often the loan procured by military personnel will be provided at high rates of interest. To safeguard these personnel from such problems, it has been suggested to cap military loans at thirty six percent.
Many a times a poor credit rating and owning fewer assets works against the interests of military personnel wanting to obtain a loan. In order to cater the needs of the family, these people can end up taking loans from the wrong people or agree to a very high rate of interest to be eligible for the loan. Unaware of how such a move is going to affect the already difficult financial status, they often end up in more trouble than they originally started out with.
For this reason, in the year 2007 the Pentagon took up the issue of the need to cap military loans to protect the military personnel from unscrupulous lenders that charge unbelievable rates of interest to loans offered by them. This was approved by the House and the Senate through bills which recommended the interest rates to be capped for all military loans. But, having been approved by both the House and the Senate has proved a difficulty as there is a difference in the recommendations provided by both of them.
It is just a matter of time when these differences will be sorted out and everything should fall in place. But, there are some Congress members that have put in their objections saying that the bill to cap military loans should not be included as a matter of defense and should be taken up as a matter that comes under consumer protection. Such arguments work against the interests of the military personnel who have already been made to face up with many posing circumstances.
With decisions going both ways and with lobbyists working for the lenders trying to quash the bill to cap military loans, it is the military personnel who still have to bear the brunt of still having to face up with high rates of interest that is being charged for loans taken by them. All they can now do is hope that the bill to cap the loans taken by military personnel is passed successfully and the financial burden that is ever increasing because of these high interest rates gets reduced as much as possible to make their lives that much easier and comfortable. They all hope that the nation that they serve so sincerely will not leave them in the lurch.

John McLaughlin - A Never-ending Quest
May 31, 2008
If you are a fan of Steely Dan, you’ll understand that one aspect of Walter Becker’s music is that he’s always been a perfectionist. In much the same way that a top author ensures there are no extraneous words; with Becker, no notes are ever wasted.
It has now been 14 years since Walter Becker - one half of Steely Dan - last offered us a solo studio recording - 11 Tracks of Whack.
It was back in 1994 that 11 Tracks of Whack, Becker’s debut solo outing, was released. It proved that the songwriter and musician had more to offer than he could through the medium of Steely Dan. And that is despite the idiosyncratic nature of the band’s music.
“When I write a song, it matters very much whether it’s intended for me,” Walter explains. “If it is, I can do what I want, within my own frame of reference. I take full responsibility.”
Yet, despite this, the 12 tracks that comprise Circus Money were a collaborative endeavor. During the three years of the album’s creation, he was working with Larry Klein, who produced and co-wrote all but one track.
“Writing songs with Walter Becker,” says Klein, “is like playing tennis with John McEnroe. It keeps you on your game.”
Also on top form were the musicians assembled for the recording sessions. Drummer Keith Carlock and guitarist Jon Herington, have both toured widely with Steely Dan, while keyboardists Ted Baker and Jim Beard were newcomers.
Walter is responsible for all the lead vocals as well as playing bass. “The bass gave me a more powerful position to define the direction I wanted the music to take…I became something of an expert on various sub genres (of Jamaican music), such as songs about motorcycles and/or featuring motorcycle sound effects; songs about the barbers versus the dreads, and songs about various judicial procedures.
It has been noted that the Jamaican influence started on 11 Tracks of Whack. Becker explains, “I had started listening to that (Jamaican music) way back in those days and at one point Donald (Fagen) and I actually experimented with the idea of doing an album with reggae-type beats on it in the Eighties…It’s always fascinated me the way they use the same elements of rhythm and blues playing, but they turn them around in a way and yet they still get a great feel on it, you know? And as a rhythm section guy, those rhythm sections are sort of the ultimate — the tightness of it, the complexity of the feels.”

Loan Military Travel - Travel Loans For Military Personnel
May 31, 2008
Military personnel need to travel to many foreign places while on active duty and the expenses of such travel are borne by the government. But, there are times when the travel is personal or is for a member of the family in which case the expenses need to be met by them itself. In such instances, a loan for travel expenses may be very ideal to help out.
Many join the army with a need to serve the country. This feeling of patriotism carries a lot of weight and no importance is given to the kind of pay that is being provided to the people joining the military. Pay being on the lower side makes it very difficult for the military personnel to cope up with sudden unforeseen circumstances necessitating additional expenditure. This is true even for the need to travel in case of any emergencies when a loan military travel is definitely helpful. So, every military personnel should be aware of the various options that are available. The internet has really solved many a problem by being able to provide instant access to information. Using online search engines it is now very easy for anyone to find the information they require in a jiffy.
Using these tools, the military personnel can find the various sources from which they can get a loan military travel. But, they should be aware that there are many bad elements out there waiting to fleece anyone coming their way and should be wary of such people. So, they should carefully study all the details of the loan and read up on all the fine print to see if there are any hidden clauses to increase the total payment made towards the loan. Being unaware of such a scenario can land these people in trouble as they may end up paying high rate of interest.
Luckily, there are many ways for a serviceman or woman to get a loan military travel. There are different programs offered by the government too. One such example is a bereavement loan that is available for travel in case of an unfortunate death of a family member. But, these loans are to be used for travel purposes only and not for anything else. The loan being an unsecured one has some eligibility criteria such as credit ratings that need to be excellent for the military personnel to be able to procure such a loan. Also, this will be very much detrimental to the rate of interest that the loan will be provided at.
The tenure of the loan is generally short and the amounts provided will also not be very high. But, usually the rate of interest is generally higher in comparison to many other loans. For this reason, the serviceman or woman should carefully weigh all the options that are available to them and to check on the pros and cons of each one of them before finalizing on the ideal loan to meet their requirements yet not be a burden on their pockets.

Offshore Bank Account Is A Must For Many Individuals
May 31, 2008
Having an offshore account is becoming more and more common these days. There are many reasons why one may choose to open an offshore banking account, however there are three main reasons why an offshore account is a must for many people. These three reasons are protection, profit and privacy. If any of these reasons are important to you when it comes to banking, then opening an offshore account is definitely an option you should pursue.
3. Protection-Higher Levels of Protection for Your Assets
Contrary to popular belief, having an offshore bank account is neither illegal nor immoral. Offshore banking often seems to conjure images of crooks and criminals trying to hide money from the government. The fact of the matter is, having an offshore account offers you a level of protection that you can’t find with any other type of account. Those who are highly concerned about the protection of their assets and finances do quite well with offshore banking. Offshore accounts have a higher level of protection from both business and government entities, and you are guaranteed that both your personal and financial information is kept secure. Offshore banks will not release your information to anyone, and many offshore jurisdictions offer heavy fines and lengthy jail terms for those that would disclose your information to others, which greatly aids in deterring those who have access to your account from releasing it.
2. Profit-Higher Returns and Profits on Your Money
Profit is another reason why many people choose to open an offshore account. In many places, there are a wide variety of taxes that must be paid when banking. This is not so with an offshore account. Standard banks not only charge a bank account debt tax and financial institution duty tax, but also tax any interest you may earn on your account. With offshore banking, you do not have to worry about these taxes. You eliminate the factor of having to pay these taxes to your banking institution, which in itself is a way to save money and profit. However, when you also factor in that you will no longer have to pay tax on the interest you accrue, and that banking in an offshore account located in a tax neutral jurisdiction allows you to compound your earnings, you quickly realize that having an offshore account is extremely profitable and beneficial.
1. Privacy-Higher Levels of Privacy for Your Personal and Financial Information
Privacy is the final reason why most people feel having an offshore account is a must. The privacy that an offshore bank account offers goes hand in hand with the level of protection your assets receive. With standard onshore banks, your personal and financial information can be quite easily accessed by almost anyone. With minimal information, an individual could easily gain access to this information and do quite a bit of damage to your finances. Additionally, by law onshore banks must disclose your information to the authorities should they request the information. Offshore banks offer a much higher level of privacy to their customers. Most offshore accounts are located in countries and jurisdictions that do not have such laws that they must comply with. Many offshore banks also offer what is called anonymous banking, which allows you to provide minimal personal information to the facility, which helps to increase the amount of privacy and protection you have.
There are of course various other reasons why one may decide to open an offshore account. These however are the top three reasons why most people choose to do at least some, if not all, of their banking in an offshore account. If protection, profit and privacy of your assets is important to you, having an offshore account is the only way to go.
