Book Description

November 6, 2007
Hidden across the United States, scattered among hundreds of cities, are real estate markets that are still quietly appreciating and investment properties that are still consistently producing thousands of dollars of annual income for their owners. Contrary to the headlines and the experts, there is no national real estate market. From the condo high-rises in Miami to the McMansions in the sleepy suburbs of Minneapolis, all real estate is local. There are hundreds of real estate markets, and each of these markets has opportunities concealed within them. Marketopoly reveals not only how to quickly and accurately identify these unseen investment opportunities and have them unfold before you, but also how to capitalize on them. Marketopoly has the information that real estate investors need in times of change. Investment real estate will never look the same. Here is just a small sample of how Marketopoly will immediately impact your investments...

  • Marketopoly gives you instant access to the FREE online Real Estate Planning Insider membership web site. This free membership gives you access to the month's supply of housing for over 75 major real estate markets - each and every month. This is information that is not available anywhere else. You couldn't buy it anywhere else even if you desperately wanted to. For example, Oklahoma City has a 7.35 month supply of housing, Phoenix, AZ has a 18.34 month supply of housing, and San Diego, CA has a 9.69 month supply of housing.

  • The month's supply of housing represents the relationship between the current supply and demand for housing and is the leading indicator of future property values - not just past appreciation.

  • The month's supply of housing allows you to easily compare different sized markets and this indicator will show you the direction and speed of a marketplace - both good and bad.

  • By understanding the month's supply of housing you are able to time your entry into and out of real estate markets for maximum profit and minimum risk. You will be able to discover when a specific real estate market has hit bottom and is positioned for a rebound.

  • Real estate doesn't go out of business. It's stock doesn't go to zero. It's a necessity. Food, water, and...shelter.

  • Discover how to determine the supply and demand for any type of property, at any price point, anywhere in the country.

  • Learn why the current real estate and mortgage markets provide a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to generate hundreds of dollars of monthly cash flow.

  • Discover why 5% appreciation can give you a better ROI than 8% appreciation.

  • Marketopoly shows you how to understand local rental markets before you invest so that you can eradicate vacancies from your properties.

  • Learn why buying points on your mortgage will be one of the smartest financial decisions you can make with your investment properties, and even your home.

  • Discover how to divide your capital and increase your cash flow.

  • Marketopoly shows you why you want to diversify your investments within real estate and how to do it.

  • Learn what equation is the ultimate report card for investment properties.

  • How to quickly get a return OF your investment.

  • Marketopoly reveals how to position your investments to produce annual returns of 8, 10, 12, even 14% regardless if the property ever appreciates.

  • Marketopoly is stuffed with uncommon yet exceptionally effective common-sense strategies that will allow you to make your real estate investments more profitable and predictable and your cash flow more consistent, while at the same time reducing your exposure to risk.

    5.0 out of 5 stars A Barometer to Measure any Market - in Minutes!, March 28, 2008
    This review is from: Marketopoly - The Definitive Guide to Beating The Real Estate Recession and Winning at The Game of Investment Real Estate (Perfect Paperback)
    Cap rates, net operating income, cash on cash, absorption, rental surveys, internal rate of return, job trends & demographics, etc. -- all important measures. However, in this book Mark simplifies WHERE YOU SHOULD START and enables you to quickly determine the "temperature" of the market before wasting unnecessary time on the other formulas.
