Rick Otton Announces Sydney Seminars to Help Property Investors Build Confidence in Nervous Market

Rick Otton Announces Sydney Seminars to Help Property Investors Build Confidence in Nervous Market Property mastermind and author of ‘How to Buy a House for a Dollar’, Rick Otton, has revealed he will hold no-charge Sydney property investing seminars on June 22 and 28 to share his proven ‘no-money-down’ strategies with a select group of serious investors.

Mr Otton said that despite lower interest rates, Sydney property investors remained on the sidelines, hamstrung by continuing financial uncertainties and a flat economic climate.

“Even though the Reserve Bank has continued to cut interest rates, Sydney property investors are remaining cautious about entering the market,” Mr Otton said.

“The unfortunate thing is that they are constantly missing out on opportunities for financial freedom and the accumulation of long term wealth through the creation of a property portfolio simply because they are unaware that alternative investing strategies exist.”

Sydney Seminars

The real estate strategist said his open-to-the-public seminars in Sydney are being held in response to the growing popularity of his creative real estate strategies.

“In my seminars, I’ll show participants how to buy a house for $1 and generate positive cash flow from day one, even without a deposit, bank loan or real estate experience,” Mr Otton said.

“More importantly, my techniques can withstand the erratic fluctuations of the economy and property market, which gives property investors tremendous freedom.”

Mr Otton said for more than a decade, he had been mentoring tens of thousands of people with no previous real estate experience – with stunning results.

He said his journey began when he discovered that the ABC Learning Centres, TV Guide and Luna Park in Sydney were all purchased for the sum of $1.

“I realised that if entire companies can be bought for one dollar, you can do the same with residential property. I’m now on a personal mission to transform the way people buy and sell property in Australia,” he said.

“My experience has taught me there is more than enough opportunity for everybody, so I started showing people exactly how they can do it too. Over the years I’ve trained people in the USA, Australia, New Zealand and the United Kingdom.

“My purpose has grown from creating time and financial freedom for my wife and myself to being able to help as many people as possible see things differently and create their own freedom!”

Rick Otton Reviews 2013 Federal Budget Measure For Downsizing Australian Property Investors

Rick Otton Reviews 2013 Federal Budget Measure For Downsizing Australian Property Investors  A pilot program announced in the recent 2013-14 Australian federal government budget may have interesting implications for the Australian property market, revealed real estate strategist Rick Otton in a post-Budget interview.

The program is aimed at encouraging older Australians on the Age Pension still living in the family home to downsize to a property more suitable for them. The current rules for means-testing of the pension exempts the family home, meaning that the value of the property is not counted when considering if a person is eligible for the pension.

“While this is intended to help Australian pensioners manage the cost of living, it can also mean that people stay for longer than they want to in large family homes,” explained Mr Otton. “Because their down-sized property will usually cost less, they are concerned that having surplus funds from their house sale will reduce their pensions and benefits.”

“The Means Test exemption for the family home has meant that older Australians are reluctant to sell their larger houses to move into something more appropriate. I strongly believe we need ways to encourage empty nesters and other people living in larger homes to downsize if it’s appropriate for them. This will bring more of these family-sized homes onto the market, add greater opportunities for property investors and house-hunters, and have an overall positive effect on housing affordability,” said Mr Otton.

The budget initiative allows pensioners meeting the criteria to put up to $200,000 of the proceeds of their house sale into a special account, if they choose to downsize. The money is not counted as part of the pensioner’s income or assets for pension purposes for up to ten years, or until money is taken out of the account.

“It’s important for people to be able to access innovative strategies to build a property portfolio to suit their needs. I think this is a good example of thinking outside the box to address a real estate issue,” said Mr Otton.

Mr Otton has spent over a decade teaching people how to make real estate investing work for them. He will be holding a free one day property investing seminars in Australia at the end of June to further spread his methods for growth and cash flow.

RBA Interest Rate Cut is Not Enough to Stimulate Real Estate Investment Says Rick Otton

RBA Interest Rate Cut is Not Enough to Stimulate Real Estate Investment Says Rick Otton Australia’s Reserve Bank surprised all pundits last week by cutting the country’s official cash rate by 25 basis points, a move which took the rate to 2.75 per cent – a record low. While property investment expert Rick Otton applauds the decision, he has revealed that lower interest rates alone are not enough to get many people into their own homes.

“The decision by the Reserve Bank will certainly help those who already have bank home loans, and by continuing to make repayments at their current level, they may be able to pay off their loans faster, or have something in reserve for leaner times” said Mr Otton. Continue reading

Australian Property Investment Bootcamp Declared ‘A Great Success’ By Rick Otton

Australian Property Investment Bootcamp Declared ‘A Great Success’ By Rick Otton Well-known for his creative approach to buying and selling houses, Rick Otton has now shared his strategies with thousands of people through the years. In his most recent three day bootcamp in Sydney, Australia, Mr. Otton has described the event as ‘a great success’, with more and more Australians now with the knowledge to buy and sell real estate without involving traditional lenders.

Many of those present had learned about Mr. Otton either through his appearances on television, through his successful property business We Buy Houses, or, most recently after reading his real estate book ‘How To Buy A House For A Dollar’.

A Motivated Group

“The men and women who attended the ‘No Money Down Bootcamp’ were motivated to make a difference to their lives through the financial freedom that property investing my way can give them” explained Mr Otton.

“That type of motivation feeds on itself, and it is contagious. Being in a room with so many people who have decided to open their minds to a new way of buying and selling property – well, there’s nothing quite like it,” Mr. Otton continued.

Mr Otton took attendees step-by-step through the different transaction techniques, and discussed how and when each one should be used.

“Each day delivered new concepts, and different business models. I explained in what circumstances each would work for both buyers and sellers; and, importantly, I went through the legal paperwork that needs to be completed for each transaction,” he said.

Creative Marketing Strategies

Innovative marketing goes hand in hand with Mr Otton’s strategies for investing in real estate, and is integral to his own We Buy Houses business.

“No business succeeds these days without marketing, and, in many ways it is vital to the success of my property investing techniques. At the Bootcamp we did discuss advertising opportunities, I also covered face-to-face engagement, and the best type of language to be used when approaching potential buyers and sellers,” said Mr Otton

“I have no doubt that the delegates left my weekend property investing bootcamp with the inspiration and tools needed to begin buying and selling houses right away.”

Plans are on the drawing board for another Australian bootcamp in 2013, along with a series of free-to-attend one day property investment seminars in each Australian capital city.

In the meantime Mr Otton is offering a Power Property Profits Pack as a no-charge download at HowToBuyAHouseForA Dollar.com.
