WHAT TYPE OF INVESTOR ARE YOU?

D istressed-real-estate investors come in all shapes and sizes, just like the assets they are trying to acquire. Knowing the type of investor you are is the first step to becoming a successful investor of distressed real estate. The PIP Group offers passive investment opportunities in both high-yield tax liens and high-yield foreclosure investments for fix- and-flip and long-term cash flow holds. TAX LIEN INVESTORS Tax lien investors are usually more interested in obtaining a conservative, high-yield return upon the redemption or payment of the tax liens. For these investors, The PIP Group focuses on states where the redemption laws are longer, less aggressive and provide a high annual yield.

and CreditSense complete a credit and funding analysis, as mentioned above, you fund the buyer’s pur- chase of the property. •  All the other steps mentioned in our earlier example remain the same. CreditSense and PIP work with the buyer to optimize their credit, so they can qualify for a traditional mortgage in three to five years. This option not only allows investors to deploy their funds and put them to work immediately, but it enables a buyer

with less-than-perfect credit to own the home they want. Closings are usually in less than 30 days. FINANCIAL AND PERSONAL REWARDS When you invest through PIP’s HOPE program, you are essentially repair- ing a broken dream. There are tens of thousands of Americans who work minimum-wage jobs, just wishing there was somebody who could help them be- come a homeowner. They just need one individual to open one door, so they can open the next and the next.

I have been working in distressed real estate since the start of my career. So many investors are scared of the stigma of being called a “slumlord” or invest- ing in broken communities, when in fact, those are the most profitable and rewarding transactions you will ever make, both financially and personally. You have the ability to repair neigh- borhoods, families and broken dreams while, at the same time, putting substan- tial profits in your pocket. When you see how you can change somebody’s life (and profit from it), you will be addicted to this style of investing, just like I am. •

FORECLOSURE INVESTORS Foreclosure investors also—potentially—can be tax lien inves- tors. Yet they are more interested in obtaining the property after the redemption period has expired. The PIP Group focuses on select opportunities or states where the odds of obtaining a deed to the property are either very strong or entirely absolute. Currently, The PIP Group offers foreclosure opportunities for fix-and-flip and long-term cash flow holds by secondary tax lien market acquisition or traditional bank foreclosures in states such as Illinois, Georgia, South Carolina and North Carolina. •
