 Have you ever considered real estate investing?

In this episode of Selling Central Florida, we had the pleasure of sitting down with our friend

Reed Goossens to talk about all things real estate investing. Reed first got into this business

when he read “Rich Dad, Poor Dad” and realized there had to be more to life than trading your

time for dollars. We are so excited for him to be here sharing his experience with us today.

If you’re interested in something that you can own that can bring in some cash flow for you, this

is the episode for you. Reed gets into the nitty gritty of what syndication is and everything else

you need to know about real estate investing before you take the plunge.

There is a lot to know before you get involved in investing in syndication. It takes a few years

before you can see a return, but it might be the least risky investment you can make. You can’t

get discouraged when you don’t see the results right away. It takes time and patience, but Reed

has a clear strategy to make it worth it.

Reed has had amazing success with this investment option, and he’s sharing all of his tips on

how to make good investments and add value to the community you are investing in.

In today’s episode, we discuss:

● How Rich Dad Poor Dad impacted Reed’s life

● What syndication is

● How much you need to get involved in a syndication

● The importance of PPMs when investing

● How you can expect to get a return on this type of investment

● How Reed adds value in order to find success

● How he handles pricing for his properties

● The fear of unfulfilled potential

● How Reed stays on track with his daily goals

● The importance of betting on yourself

We hope you enjoyed this episode with Reed and learned a lot about real estate investing! This

is such a low-risk way to invest in real estate and we think it’s a great option for anyone that has

been considering this path. To learn more about Reed, visit his website, and sign up for his

Have you ever thought of investing in a short-term rental property?

As realtors that are right around Disney and all of the theme parks in Florida, rentals are definitely our jam. We love talking about this topic and we love helping people purchase their dream investment properties.

We’ve seen so many investors dive into the world of short-term rentals and do really well, so in this week’s episode of Selling Central Florida, we are diving into the topic to tell you everything you need to know about these types of investments.

Short-term rentals are a tried and true way to make some passive income, and they have blown up in popularity in central Florida. They are an excellent way to generate wealth for your family.

This is truly something that we can all do to generate income. Even if you are just breaking even on your monthly expenses, you are still generating equity on your property just by owning it. Furthermore, you can invest in a property that is already set up as a short-term rental and you can start generating income the day you close.

The opportunities are endless when it comes to rental properties, which is why we love them so much!

In today’s episode, we discuss:

● What a short-term rental is

● Counties that are perfect for short-term rentals

● Occupancy rates on these types of properties

● Property management options

● What you need to know about HOAs

● The benefits of new construction rental properties

● Misconceptions people have when it comes to condos

If you can’t tell, we highly recommend short-term rentals as a way to build wealth, and if you’re looking to get started, we are here for you! No matter where you’re looking in the state of Florida, we have resources all over the state. So even if it’s not central Florida, make sure to reach out to us and we can put you into contact with somebody who specializes in short-term rentals in that particular area so you can get exactly what you’re looking for.

The one thing we can’t tell you is how certain properties perform. You’ll have to get that information from a property manager. There is a great company that does this and we are going to be interviewing them next week so stay tuned!

Do you know what a transaction coordinator is?

There is so much to know about the process of buying or selling a home and it can be seriously confusing. So in this episode of Selling Central Florida, we sat down with our good friend Haley to talk about what a transaction coordinator is, what they do, and why some real estate agents choose to use one.

You can think of the transaction coordinator as the master administrator. They deal with contracts and make sure everyone gets the right documents at the right time for things to move properly from open all the way to post-close.

We like to call them the secret superheroes in the background! They keep us real estate agents organized and make sure everyone in the process is on the same page and no one drops the ball on anything important.

Every transaction is different and it’s so easy to miss small mistakes, so the transaction coordinator is an extra set of eyes for everything and extra help for the clients.

In today’s episode, we discuss:

● What a transaction coordinator does

● How they help make sure the whole process goes smoothly

● The requirements to become a transaction coordinator

● How transaction coordinators are employed

● Why transaction coordinators are so beneficial to everyone involved

● How much do transaction coordinators get paid

No matter who it is or what they’re doing, we are just excited to get people excited about real estate. So whether you are here because you want to learn more about who is involved in the real estate process or you’re here because you are interested in becoming a transaction coordinator, we hope this episode was insightful!

Are you wanting to buy a home but feeling intimidated to do so because of interest rates?

We have all probably heard about the interest rate hikes, and when you’re purchasing a home, this is definitely something you want to pay attention to. Three things drive interest rates. Inflation, federal reserve, and the bond market.

We know that can be a little confusing. So, on today's episode of Selling Central Florida, we brought back Greg Tucker with Amerifirst Home Mortgage to talk about interest rates and what is going on in the housing market right now during these crazy times.

Mortgage rates rise when moving towards fast growth in our economy, so higher inflation and lower employment will make them rise. Since the purchasing power of the dollar is lower, it increases the risk. So they have to raise those rates.

In 2020 and 2021, interest rates were historically low, and people got used to those rates and came to expect them. So while the rates are higher than they were during the pandemic, they aren’t that high now, they are just returning to normal. This is great because buyers are getting their power back in the housing market.

In today’s episode, we discuss:

● What determines interest rates

● Why the federal reserve affects interest rates

● How the bond market impacts interest rates

● The multiple factors that influence your individual rate

● What a discount point is and how it works

● The benefits of refinancing later on if you don’t like your rate

● What to know about new construction projects

The moral of the story is? Don’t let the interest rate of your dream home scare you away from buying a home you love! We always say “Marry the house. Date the rate”. If you find a home you love and can afford the interest rate for now, lock it down. You can always refinance later for a better interest rate.

Let’s talk about selling your home!

We have been sharing a lot about what it is like to buy a home in central Florida, but for this episode of Selling Central Florida, we are shifting the focus to selling. There’s a lot that you need to know about the process including what questions to ask your agent, what to expect when your property is on the market, and so much more.

As many of you know, it is a seller's market right now. But what is a seller’s market? This can be best described as when the number of buyers supersedes the amount of inventory of homes on the market. While other factors go into it, like interest rates, it is essentially just a matter of supply and demand.

So what does the home selling process look like when you’re actually ready to pull the trigger? Your seller's agent is going to be a huge help to you when it comes to getting everything ready so that you can get the best possible deal for your home.

In today’s episode, we discuss:

● The factors that determine whether it is a seller’s market

● When you should sell your home

● The first steps to selling your home

● Tips for pricing your home

● The negative impact of pricing your home too high

● Marketing tools for selling your home

● Why your home photos matter so much

● How to choose the right buyer

● What happens when you’re under contract

There’s a lot that goes into selling your home but if you get the right seller’s agent, you will be in good hands, trust us! If you are getting ready to sell your home, make sure you check out the Seller’s Guide here!
