As a Real Estate Investor and consultant, I
often see novice investors making the same exact mistakes. Consequently, I have
decided to make the following list so that the novices can understand what
these common mistakes are and how to avoid them. The good news is that all
these mistakes can be easily corrected. The bad news is that none of these
mistakes will seriously limit your ability to success.

Common Mistakes Made By Real Estate Investors |
Today, Tim
Marais has discussed some common mistakes that faced by real estate
investors such as:
Not Getting an Education: Getting an education is a real estate investor to
teach ourselves to make the real world, it is very easy and less expensive, we are fortunate to stay in the
country full of educative opportunities for whatever we want to pursue.
Not
Getting an Education from the Right Place: The internet is a great medium, but it
was also filled with too much information - good and bad and sometimes less
reliable sources, therefore,
you should not accept information that you get on the Internet because it is
basically quality information. For example, blogs and newsgroups have many
reputable properties for investment that have exposed the Internet.
No
Taking Action: If you have been successful in getting a good education from a good source, then the
next step is to take some action. Knowledge only once you start applying it
properly only to buy a wide range of real estate investment products or
participate in boot camp you cannot make any money by taking some novices
neglecting to take action because they are still searching for that magical
secret programmed to start at the beginning of her dolls. The real secret is hard work! Others are
afraid that what may be their acceptance of a proposal. Or, if they do
not experience immediate success, they can skip making the offer, whatever
reason; there is a definite way of failing to take any action, failing at anything. Personally, I believe that the
initial failure forces us to make sure that we really want what we want, in the
end, it leads to success, and as much as we continue, the closer we will
achieve success.

Mistakes Made by Novice Real Estate Investors |
Not
Having Realistic Expectations: Most novice
real estate investors have unrealistic expectations. It can be about repairing
a property's needs, the time it takes to complete a project, or the benefits
that come to a deal.
Those expectations are either too much or too little if they are the bulk of properties, they can be very greedy
and try reducing redevelopment too much. If they are retrieving the properties, then they can reduce the need for
repair by estimating if they are according to the land, then they can estimate
the amount of maintenance that an asset will be required or vacant posts The
factor must be forgotten.
While receiving education, a major role is played in these mistakes;
another reason is that they did not leave enough room for error. They believed
that everything would be planned; real estate deals are rarely planned as
planned. Experienced investors understand the importance of planning for the
unexpected, in such a way that when things are not employed, then it is not the
end of the world.
Not being
patient: Initially,
novice investors may take some time to see positive results. You cannot expect
to find deals immediately and earn money. It may take several months to get
your first deal, as a comparison, new real estate agents are often told by
their broker that
they can take up to six months to close their first transaction. Similarly,
real estate investors should wait for a few months to close their first
transactions. In addition, your real estate investment business may take years
to become a thriving enterprise. There are not many businesses that instantly
become profitable - there is no business type, it takes many years to take most
businesses to a point where they earn steady and reliable profits. Running your
own business can be fun and extremely rewarding, but rest assured, early years can be
unpredictable. As a result, you have to be very patient in removing things.
