Look for the shabbiest house on the nicest block in town. Spruce it up. Sell for profit.

That’s a real estate investing recipe for success more often than not, especially if you can discern between money pits and money makers. When it comes to flipping foreclosures, or even purchasing a discounted distressed property as a primary residence, it’s critical to spot the “diamond in the rough” before someone else beats you to it.

Distressed properties are often in less than tip-top shape, but it’s that shabby exterior that is concealing the massive opportunity for riches for those investors who know how to take advantage of great deals when they see them.

Spotting a diamond in the rough isn’t difficult, but it does take the right knowledge and an open mind. You need to be able to see past the unsightly condition of a home that has turned off other investors to determine if it is really worth your while.

The September 2011 edition of Foreclosure.com’s free educational newsletter, “Investment Exchange,” is now available, which shows you how to find and capitalize on those diamond-in-the-rough properties that are just waiting for an investor like you

Learn how to hone your detective skills to uncover these amazing deals before your competition does. The potential financial rewards will be well worth your time.

Technology is a beautiful thing. It can also be stressful and confusing, if you’re a little late to the game and unsure of where to start.

Apps, smart phones, iPads and other innovations are all the rage these days. Real estate agents, sellers, buyers and investors are all taking advantage of the latest technology to expedite the marketing and sales of homes at seemingly every turn.

But with the competitive market flooded with so many products, services and short cuts, it can actually hamper your home search rather than make it smoother … and cheaper.

The August 2011 edition of Foreclosure.com’s free educational newsletter, “Investment Exchange,” is now available, which teaches you which technological gadgets are worth the effort of getting to know and how to put them to work so you can save time and make money faster.

We’re also very excited to tell you about a 100 percent free opportunity to learn all about integrating technology into your investment strategies quickly and easily. It’s a crash course in the essential technological tools that, when used correctly, promise to make a real difference in your bottom line.

Learn about the most innovative and intuitive technological tools that will make finding, purchasing and profiting from distressed properties easier than ever before.

If your credit score seems like a great big mystery, we’re here to help you crack the code once and for all.

Potential real estate buyers who plan to apply for mortgages to finance their home purchases must have pristine credit reports … or as close as possible. Especially in today’s credit conscious environment — big banks and lenders that got burned with loosey-goosey credit restrictions from a few years ago can’t afford to make the same mistakes twice.

Literally.

The first step to a great credit score is understanding your credit report.

The June 2011 edition of Foreclosure.com’s free educational newsletter, “Investment Exchange,” is now available, which teaches you how to understand your credit report and your credit score and, more importantly, what to do if you don’t like what you see.

Repairing damaged credit isn’t impossible. It doesn’t even have to be difficult or complicated, as long as you have the right tools and the right education.

Learn easy-to-implement tips for boosting your credit, where to get free credit advice, how to put your best foot forward when applying for a mortgage and much more.
