Where are all the sellers who will say yes to creative financing? They're not hiding. You're just asking the wrong question. This week's Q&A shows you how to spot the right situations and what to ask when you get the seller on the phone.

Here's what we cover:

-Why the deal is rarely just about the property
-Why you shouldn't be convincing sellers, just asking better questions
-The simple formula: property, seller situation, motivation, timeline
-The three-question approach that uncovers a seller's real motivation
-How to approach expired listings, FSBOs, tired landlords, inherited properties, and distressed sellers
-Why we look for situations, not just houses

★☆★ About Smart Real Estate Coach® ★☆★

At Smart Real Estate Coach® , OUR MISSION IS: We empower individuals and families to create the life of their dreams.

We encourage aspiring investors and entrepreneurs to take the first step towards creating REAL income with real estate without using gobbs of cash or credit.

After many years of coaching and constantly doing deals himself independently, Chris Prefontaine founded Smart Real Estate Coach® in 2014, bringing in his son Nick, daughter Kayla, and son-in-law Zachary as the company began to grow. The family team coaches & mentors investors on how to properly start, scale and automate their businesses throughout North America — all without using their own cash, credit, or taking out bank loans to buy property. Our team buys and sells homes in our own market every month. We then mentor, coach, and consult students and Associates all around North America to do the exact same thing. We stay current because we’re in the trenches ourselves.

Smart Real Estate Coach® is made up of several media properties, including coaching and mentorship programs, a YouTube channel, a podcast, several annual live events, a series of fully online self-guided courses with 100+ videos and more. Through our collection of self-guided video programs, group coaching, and one-on-one consulting, we teach individuals and families how to STOP building a company for someone else and start working on taking control of their own financial future to create FREEDOM. Our family team and coaches teach:

• How to set up the necessary foundation for a successful real estate business: our vendors, virtual systems, lead generation, and more.
• How to potentially generate the number of leads you’ll need to allow you to accomplish the goals you seek financially.
• How to find the best properties in your area and not fight over deals with other investors due to the unique Trademarked techniques within our special niche.
• How to buy a gorgeous home for yourself without a loan.
• How to create 3 Paydays® per deal vs. getting paid once like a wholesaler or flipper.
• Different ways to buy homes without your cash or credit and still profit between $45,000-$350,000 per deal with all 3 Paydays® .
…and much, much more!

Between our existing Associates across North America and our own deals, we’re still completing 8-18 deals every month and control, as of now, millions of dollars’ worth of real estate with little to no money down. If you’re serious about making money in the world of real estate investment, then team up with the family business that gets results!
