Real Estate Investment Groups and Clubs Information
In today’s highly competitive real estate market, investors are constantly looking for ways to increase their buying power. The preconstruction market is quickly becoming mainstream (not just for devout real estate professionals anymore) and heightened interest in purchasing during this stage has allowed developers to stop offering incentives to secure investors’ interest in the project. The power has shifted into the builders’ hands, leaving the individual investor in a tough position. Several current preconstruction projects are massive high-rise developments with hundreds of units, thus nullifying the significance of an individual investor.

Left alone and impotent, the individual investor has no choice but to ally with the enemy—other investors—in order to form a superpower capable of cracking the development despot. Whereas a lone investor marching into battle with a near omnipotent developer to demand superior terms and bargains (this worked for Moses, but unless you are equipped with an arsenal of frogs or biblical ailments, it is not advisable), a brigade of buyers can use their negotiating munitions to talk down a high opening price and guarantee that they will occupy a significant portion of the development’s units. Since the strong and sizeable group of investors presents a veritable force to be reckoned with, the developer realizes that the group’s involvement can sway the fate of his project and is therefore more apt to offering certain benefits to the group. Also, by joining with the competition, you are, in effect, destroying it.
As real estate rates continue to climb, investment groups of this sort are popping up all over the country, emerging as great buying powers able to seduce developers of the most luxurious properties to granting discounts due to the groups’ sheer force and magnitude. Not only do these real estate investment clubs offer a team of allies with whom to engage in mass investments, but also a valuable educational resource for new and seasoned investors alike. Many real estate investment groups host speakers, experts in the real estate industry, who impart their vast knowledge to the active investors. Keeping up the current trends is absolutely essential for any real estate investor seeking profit. The market is fluid, changing constantly, growing in some cities while shrinking in others with sometimes seemingly little relation to the national real estate appreciation rate.
Recently, the Office of Federal Housing Enterprise Oversight issued a document detailing the growth in the appreciation rates of real estate markets in every significant and semi-significant metropolitan area in the nation. Leading the charge in rising growth rates is underdog St. George, Utah, boasting a 38.4% percentage increase in appreciation speed. At the end of the 1990s, St. George’s region was named one of the best places in the country to retire, thus sparking a huge demand for area housing and heavy construction of retirement property to appease the many buyers. The city has still not cooled down from the boom and its low crime rate, robust job market, and affordable housing prices continue to attract younger buyers and their families to migrate to St. George, UT.
Also popular to the vacationing/ retiring sect is Naples Marco Island, Florida, with the second highest appreciation velocity (clocking in at 37.7%), a booming pleasure destination on the Gulf of Mexico. In the mid-1960s, before the town’s rapid development, Marco Island had a population of only 550. Now, with massive vacation developments like the $40 million Marco Beach Ocean Resort, the island has a permanent population of 15,000 and balloons to a whopping 35,000 due to migration during the winter months. Another Florida city, Cape Coral- Fort Myers places third in the appreciation race with a 36.9% growth. Florida’s second largest city in geography and 11th in population, Cape Coral has only existed since 1970. With thousands of residential properties along the 400+ miles of canals and direct access to the ocean, Cape Coral still retains the affordability that more commercial, tourist-infested regions like Orlando and Miami have forsaken long ago. Its current population of 150,000 makes Cape Coral one of the fastest growing cities in investment real estate hot spot Florida. Over in the central region of the state, Lakeland Florida is showing similar growth patterns, with an appreciation rate increase of 35.6%, placing it fifth in OFHEO’s rankings. Located within a half-hour drive to the Disney parks, Busch Gardens, and many other central Florida attractions, Lakeland provides an affordable alternative in vacation housing.
Across the United States, another warm, perpetually sunny area is giving the Florida destinations some stiff competition in the appreciation race. The Phoenix-Mesa-Scottsdale, Arizona region’s appreciation rate has increased by 36.5% in the past year, adding to its spectacular growth since its 106,000 residents (ranking it 99th in population out of US cities) and 17.1 square miles in 1950. Now the seventh largest city in the nation, with a population of 1.15 million in its 470 square miles, Phoenix continues its exponential growth with over a billion dollars allotted to planned private and public developments.
Due to the profit potential of the aforementioned metropolitan areas and the public’s growing knowledge of such facts, these areas boast myriad developments with high appeal to investors that will no doubt generate much competition. Therefore, YAERD recommends joining an investment group in order to maximize profit in any of said development communities. These groups provide safe, lucrative forums through which an investor can see a hefty profit from a single investment while forging relationships with developers, banks, and other investors that can be very valuable in future investments.
A favorable relationship with a developer is a luxury that few investors possess. Once an investment group has helped a builder sell a significant number of units, thus assuring bank financing during the preconstruction phase with relatively low stress, it is very likely that he will reward his investors with preferential treatment in later projects. Like any other reciprocal relationship, bringing in mercenaries to aid a difficult situation can ensure aid in future projects.

Today's preconstruction real estate market grown so much and become so popular that it is engaged in a state of war. Once peaceful transactions for only the most cognizant of the real estate industry, preconstruction investing is reached a state of full combat. With developers cutting incentives and investors graveling at their mighty feet for even the most menial discounts, it is imperitive that these once powerful buyers seize power and reclaim dominance of the real estate market.
Of course they could fight with conventional weapons, but that could take years, cost millions of lives. Thus, the only choise left is for these investors to band together in a vigorous brotherhood of buyers fighting for bargains. A single developer, not even one of the most Napoleonic character, can compete with the brawn of the INVESTMENT GROUP........
Real estate investment groups are a great way to maximize your profits. Investment groups buy in large amounts which mean they often receive discounts on properties the purchase.
