Real Estate Investing: Cash Reserves Are A Must For Buy & Hold
We have been working with Memphis real estate investors for the past 7-10 years in one fashion or another and one thing that never changes about new investors is a lack of understanding when it comes to cash reserves. So many people think that real estate investing can be boiled down to a quick series of numbers, i.e. - how much will this be or how much will that be or how much should I set aside for this expense and that expense? All of those are VERY VALID QUESTIONS!!

Memphis Business Journal Article on Memphis Invest
The winners will be announced on Thursday night May 23rd at a special dinner, but today they published articles on all of the finalists. This is our second year to be nominated, which is a tremendous honor. To be considered one of the Top 5 companies in Memphis (we are in the 25-75 employee category) really speaks volumes not about us as owners, but about our people.

3 Sure Fire Ways To Fail At Real Estate Investing
It seems that a week cannot go by without my in box getting bombarded with "fool-proof" investment ideas and opportunities. Add to that the laundry list of emails I get with new products and services that all promise magic bullets or towering pillars with all the steps I need for real estate success. If that were not bad enough, then come the emails from investors asking if I can help them follow through on their risky real estate investing plan or if we offer strategies that, in my opinion, are doomed to fail. So this week, I decided to write a tongue-in-cheek article assisting all those investors who are attracted to sure fire failure. Here are three sure fire ways to fail at real estate!

Memphis In May Weekend A Big Hit For Real Estate Investors
A Real Chance To Show Off Memphis Real Estate
Memphis Invest just concluded their 5th Memphis In May With Memphis Invest real estate weekend and I can say with all humility that this years' event was the best by far! We had the largest group of investors we had ever hosted, which presented a lot of challenges for us from logistics to presentation and simply hosting in general. We always want everyone to feel like they are the only real estate investor in the room and judging from the comments, thank you's and emails we have already received since the event ended on Saturday, I think we achieved our goals!

Memphis has long been a hot bed for the long-term buy and hold real estate strategy, but there is room on that list for other opportunities. With the real estate climate heating up and the opportunities staying hot, Memphis has moved up on another real estate list.

Memphis Responds to T.J. Simers on Grizzlies - Clippers NBA Matchup
We Could Invest In Real Estate Anywhere...We Choose Memphis!
There is something special about Memphis and the people who live here.
I've been lucky enough to live in three great cities in my life. I grew up in Dallas, Texas and loved every minute of it. Being born in Texas, I still claim to be a Texan and I guess I always will. I still have family, friends and business associates in the the Dallas Ft. Worth metroplex and as many of you know, my family recently started DallasInvest.com as our second city of operation. What a great city and a fantastic place for single-family rental investments. But that is a story for another day. Today is all about Memphis.
