Synopsis "Trash to Cash: The Poor Investor's Guide to Real Estate Investing"
We have all heard the incredible stories, some lucky individual stumbles across the buy of a lifetime, a painting, a memento, an old book, an autograph, a baseball card, etc. Tossed away by the unsuspecting owner as trash, later found to have considerable value by a lucky purchaser. What is "Trash To Cash"? Trash To Cash is a euphemism for obtaining value from something perceived as having little or no value, specific to real estate. Now when a gemologist evaluates a diamond, they look for the 4Cs, carat weight, clarity grade, color grade and cut grade. The novice simply must take the word of the jewelry store or seller. The gem for all practical purposes could be a worthless piece of glass. In real estate, it's the objective of every investor to find the elusive, 'diamond in the rough', a property that needs work to reveal its true potential and value. To make money in real estate, the poor 'trash to cash' investor must become an expert, able to discern value in property tossed away, deemed to have little or no value. To help the poor investor succeed, 'Trash To Cash' explains how to find success without cash, good credit or gainful employment. The most important thing the poor investor needs to make money in real estate is strong desire and the ability to find a "deal," a bonafide money making opportunity on a piece of real estate. A bonafide deal in real estate is like having a check in your hand and all you then need is a 'check casher'. "Trash To Cash" explains how to find a bonafide real estate deal and then how to cash in on that deal without relying on a nest egg, excellent credit or a great job.
