Everyone knows that there is money to be made in real estate. The hard part is that you need to have knowledge of the industry, you need to have a lot of capital and you need to have a great credit score. I know probably about 5 people that have all of these requirements, so needless to say it's really hard to get into real estate.
However, then I found out about bird dogging. I know, it sounds like a silly term, but it's real. Basically it's helping others with real estate and you make money in the process. I found that it's was a great way for me to get started. I started connecting with people who were in the industry and started learning from them. Plus, I was making about five thousand a month from relatively easy work.
I've already moved on to bigger and better deals like flipping houses but bird dogging really is phenomenal. You need no credit to do this whatsoever. You need no capital. The average bird dog will make between $500 and $1500 per deal. While this isn't enough to easily live on, if you do about 5 deals a month (what I was averaging) it's quite manageable.
I started this myself when I was in college and loved it. I could work whenever I wanted to, and I didn't have to slave away at some boring job like I had throughout high school. It's easy to get set up to. As long as you have houses in your area that are for sale, and can do some basic math, then you're set!
I always thought that real estate was only for rich people, and even if I did get into the business I would have too much at risk. What if I couldn't find a tenant? What if I couldn't sell it, or renovate for the price I thought I could? What if it needed a new roof? Well, bird dogging deals with absolutely none of that and that's what I like best.
I've since been able to graduate college with no debt, and rather than trying to find a job in this horrible market, I was able to make quite a lot of profit simply because of this bad market. They always say buy low, and the real estate market is perfect for this! I'm even thinking about starting my own company now!
But if you want to get started for yourself, then I suggest you check out this site. It really helped me in the beginning. Good luck!
