REI Network with Gavin Timms

Many of you have been asking about how I see the current state of the real estate market. When the economy starts to dip, our jobs or income can be put in jeopardy. Despite all that, I 100% believe that now is the time to start your real estate business! 

There will be a lot fewer properties that go above the asking price. So, there’s no better time to make offers and close deals than now. 

What’s inside:

How I see...

It’s been 7 days since we started a new business in a brand new market, and I am excited to share the results of the strategies we set up, and the marketing we put in place 7 days ago! We had a new mail piece and it's a “Game Changer”! Believe it or not, we got our first contract signed yesterday! It’s insane! This proves that direct mail isn’t dead. So, we got it locked up, and my team is currently trying to move it. This res...

I am opening up a brand new virtual market as a challenge with Joe McCall! This is exciting! You will get the chance to see firsthand how I set up strategies and put marketing in place, as I establish this new virtual market. Starting from what I specifically look at when I’m picking the market, to how I pull lists, to deciding what marketing channels I’m going to use and what tools I’m going to use to make this happen.

I...

I just got back from a whirlwind couple of weeks of travel and I'm tired but inspired. When 
you have your business set up as I do, you can take advantage of that, and work from 
anywhere you want. That allows me to get creative with what I do. I recently decided to take
on a few clients to help them set up their real estate business, but the catch was, I would 
actually fly out to them and do it in person. I d...

As the market shifts and times keep changing, we’re now starting to see it in our own businesses, especially with institutional buyers starting to back out of deals. Because of all these changes going on, we wanted to give you the top seven steps you’ll need as an active real estate investor to not only stay afloat during these times but to prosper. These seven steps can apply to anyone from wholesalers to vacant land investors as ...

We’re working on a lot of deals right now, even with a recession on the way. Sellers are accepting our offers and there’s still a ton of opportunity. For those just starting out, it is totally possible for you to make $10K in 10 hours per week. No matter what might be happening in the stock market, tried and true marketing strategies like direct mail and cold calling will always work. Staying close to your network and keeping your ...

In this coming recession, we’re helping you prepare, not panic. If you know how to identify problems and solve them, you’ll be able to recession-proof your real estate investing business. It’s important to know what to focus on, especially if you’re already feeling the effects of what’s currently happening. Wholesalers are still making a ton of money and doing deals, even when big companies are laying off their workforces. As with ...

The stock market is down, inflation is up, and gas and grocery prices are sky-high. Interest rates are going up as well, and crypto is losing its value fast. Instead of worrying, we want to prepare you for the potential crisis we’re facing. You can definitely make it out of this on top if you’re smart. You need to know how to pivot and be smart in the way you invest. Having multiple exit strategies is also a must. This new recessio...

People might be panicking over the current economy, but we’re here to bring some sanity and normality to the situation. In real estate, it’s only going to be bad for people who are ignoring the fundamentals. It’s important to listen to and learn from the people who have been through recessions before, like back in 2008. There’s always going to be opportunities in the market if you know how to find deals. In this episode, Joe and I ...

I’m passionate about sales and talking to sellers. I believe it’s a million-dollar skill and it’s something you need to get good at. Pre-screening your sellers when you get them on the phone is something that will make your life a whole lot easier. Whether the call is inbound or outbound, make sure you walk through the four pillars to get the information you need. Those four pillars are motivation, timeline, the condition of the pr...

While some people are shrugging their shoulders about the market change, some people are already freaking out about the recession. But do they have to? The recession could very well be here, but we don't have to panic. We don't have to freak out.

We’ve been in a business for many years, and the guys we know who have been in this a lot longer than me and Joe are seeing the similar patterns with the last recession...

Having a successful VA team is a major part of any successful real estate business. A VA is going to be one of the first hires you make, especially if you’re a solo entrepreneur. Whether you’re new to the business or seasoned doesn’t matter – you’re going to need to eventually start outsourcing. Your time is best spent doing high-dollar activities like closing deals and you don’t have time to get stuck in administrative work. Find ...

I’m back home after being on the road for the last four months and I’m so glad I’ve built a business I can run from anywhere. Right now, I’m working on personal development and mindset because it’s so key for your life in general. You always have to work on yourself and look at yourself honestly. When you can reflect, you’re able to see where you need to change and do the things you need to do to succeed and get ahead. It’s importa...

Joe and I believe there are 3 keys to being successful in this business: Marketing, Automation, and Delegation. The way I run my business and the way Joe runs his is based on the lifeblood of it all which is marketing.

We just came from an awesome 5 leads in 5 days challenge with our students where we dove deep into the marketing tactics and strategies. Guess what? Our students from this challenge actually got leads and g...

It’s easy to overcomplicate things when running your real estate business. There are so many tools, systems, and automation, and getting too bogged down with these details takes away from what really matters. When you spend too much time on the little things, you don’t take the massive action needed to get ahead. The most important thing to do first is to create a solid foundation for your business and stick to the basics. Whenever...

I’m back at my parents’ house in the UK for the first time in over three years. I wanted to show you how I run my business from abroad to help you when you take your own trips or spend time away from home. Traveling within the United States is one thing, but when you leave the country, there are some specific factors to consider so you can still run things smoothly. You can’t always bring the same equipment you use to work at home,...

Today, I’m breaking down the marketing strategies that actually work in my business and why I chose them. There are two types of strategies: proactive and reactive. Proactive strategies include cold calling and sending text messages. Reactive marketing includes direct mail and Facebook pay-per-click, or PPC. For the last four years, my number one source of marketing is cold calling. Whether you do it yourself or hire VAs to call fo...

I’ve heard a lot of people saying they can’t get into the real estate investing business because they either don’t have time but have money or they have time but don’t have the money. While it’s true that you need money to invest in real estate, you actually don’t need YOUR own money. You can buy real estate without ever using your own money. 

The best three ways are: 

• Private money or hard lenders
• Double closing
• Transactional fund...

It’s completely normal for new real estate investors to hesitate to fully jump into the business because of the question marks. What do I need to do? How do I do it? Where do I start? Can I afford to do it? What if I make a mistake and blow all my money? Joe and I have been there, done that and we want to teach you what worked and still works for us so that you can avoid as many mistakes as possible in launching your real estate in...
