By D.C. Fawcett, Business Building Coach to the Foreclosure Industry

When real estate investors evaluate their options for securing deals and making profits in the foreclosure market, there are several things that may come to mind. Whether its preforeclosure, short sales, or bank owned foreclosures, there is a lot of money to be made. The first step on your own journey is to understand the terminology and that’s where real estate definitions are important.

Real estate definitions you need to be familiar with include:

Market Value: the true value of a property, as determined by comparisons to other similar properties that have been recently sold.

Bank Owned Foreclosure- When a property is lost via foreclosure it goes back to the bank and then becomes one of the now thousands of bank owned foreclosures (or REO properties) on the market today.

Preforeclosure- Any time prior to a foreclosure auction, a property is said to be in preforeclosure, a time when you can work directly with property owners.

Short Sale- When a preforeclosure property is negotiated to be paid off for less than what is owed to the bank, this is referred to as a short sale. Massive profits can be earned with short sales because deals don’t just exist, they are created.

Lis Pendens- This is the initial filing by a lender that a loan on a property is in default and that they are pursuing foreclosure as a remedy.

Real Estate Investment Training- This is any dedicated effort by an investor to learn the tools of their trade from those who have walked that path before them.

While this is just a start, these real estate definitions should be studied and committed to memory because they will soon become the foundation for your business as a real estate investor.

In today’s market, terminology is as much as part of real estate investing as any other part of the business. Make sure you have a steady source of leads and a professional team to assist you because the deals are out there to be had. Commit yourself to real estate training (including knowing the real estate definitions I’ve mentioned in this article), and I wish you the very best in success in real estate investing and in business as a whole.

Every day, new and established agents are waking up to the fact that an effective online presence has become more than just a good marketing idea. An effective online presence is now mandatory. So, you should be aware of how to build a top real estate website.

Real estate has flooded the internet and browsing through MLS information is now as common as checking your bank account online. Agents are now displaying their listings to the general public.

Web content that holds a visitor´s attention and moves them to action must take into account marketing principles and peoples´reading behavior.

Websites with an eye-catching graphic design, intuitive navigation layout, and interesting web content are key to converting visitors to sales leads.

Real estate blogs are one of the most important internet marketing tools in recent years. They provide your small business with a chance to share your expertise and knowledge with a larger audience.

Designing a professional looking website from scratch can appear to be a challenging task. However, if you are armed with the right knowledge and the correct software and tools you will be able to build a top real estate website.

Real estate brokers and agents or any small business need to have a management system for their web design to be successful. Your site will require real estate website design, search engine optimization, hosting and more.

Brokers and agents need to be able to manage their own listings (adding and deleting) without having to contact their web designer every time they have a new property listing. Therefore, your site should be easy for you to navigate because real estate websites need to be updated regularly.

Real estate website design and mortgage website design should create captivating interactive experiences designed to match your prospects buying process with your sales process. For example, brokers and agents can set up client chat services on their sites.

Brokers and agents have found the international buyer a profitable niche market to target. Those who successfully positioned their real estate websites to target foreign buyers did well in states targeted by foreign real estate investors.

Search engine optimization can help you achieve those all important top rankings for your relevant keywords and trademark names. Search engines consider sites with links relative to their own content “more important” and place them higher in ranking.

Statistics indicate that well-placed testimonials on real estate web designs add a stickiness factor that keeps website visitors on websites longer and converts visitors to sales leads when they fill out your guestbook.

Customizable featured listings, easy contact methods, community information, maps and mortgage payment calculators are also standard features on a Realtor web site design.
