Wendy's
Week
I had the
pleasure of catching up with Rick Otton from We Buy Houses this week.
Rick
is speaking at our Get Started in
Property event in March. If a lack
of money has hampered your investing, then Rick is the man to listen
to.
Our early
bird offer is only
available for another 4 days.
For details: www.realestatewomen.com.au.
Last week I
shared how I'll be in Perth for WNA.
I'll now also be speaking on the same day to the WAIP Property group. Email Jenny if
you are interested in a seat and for more details.
You've
probably noticed journalists are not painting a very rosy
picture
for property in 2009. I inspected a property on the weekend,
a
true "renovator's delight". The agent was from clear across
town
and asked if I'd been looking long. He then said to me: "I'm
not
from around here, do you know what these sorts of properties sell for
in this area?".
I
smiled and changed the subject. Now, if that is not an
opportunity staring you right in the face, I don't know what is.
Knowledge is power, negotiating power that is.
Until next week,
happy investing!

Checking your Bank Statements for
Errors
A Sydney Morning Herald study about banking errors found that 54% of
monthly loan statements contain errors and that the
average monthly error is $242.
This
may not sound like much but an error like this can cost you well over
$20,000 over the life of a loan. With all the fees and charges they
already slug you with, do you really want to be giving your bank more
of your hard earned cash than they are entitled to?
A great program from MortgageWatchdog
can help you easily find these errors. You really do need to
be
checking and it is crazy to think "this couldn't happen to me" ...
because it probably already is.
This really can have
that big an impact on your personal bottom line. Take a look here now and get back
the money you are owed by your bank.

- we've slashed over 30% off the price!

7 Secrets for Successful
Negotiating
Many
people find negotiating a tricky area as they don't understand the
golden rules to stick to. Negotiating is not about what you
can get. It is about fostering a situation where both parties
are
pleased with the outcome. Here are my top 7 secrets for a
successful negotiation:
1. Aim for a Win-Win outcome. Never narrow negotiations down to just
one issue or
where someone has
to lose
2. Remember that different people will want
different things. Find out what they want so
that you can tailor your negotiating accordingly
3. Communicate your willingness to walk away and
stick to it
4. Feign disinterest in making the deal, no matter
how enthusiastic you are
5. Always have an unidentified entity behind you: "I'll have to run it
past my partner. I am not
sure he'll agree,
but if I could tell him you agreed to "X", I may be able to
persuade him." This is a great bargaining tactic
6. Go armed with what you want written down. You'll maintain focus and
appear more
confident
7. Never take the first offer. See if there is
further room for negotiation

Five
Minutes with...
Leanne Watson from Your Successful Mind
Question 1
What
has been your biggest challenge in business and how did you overcome it?
My
biggest challenge has been being too independent and thinking I had
to do it all. What I’ve realised is others like to help as
much
as I do so now I ask questions and ask for help and it’s been
a
very heartwarming experience.
Question
2 If
you had to start your business again from scratch, what would you do
differently?
Realising
that my business is internet marketing and having an internet marketing
coach would have made the biggest difference.
Question
3 Who
do you admire and why?
I admire people
who are happy with
who they are and still committed to growing and learning. People
who’ve overcome their circumstances and have achieved their
goals
at the same time maintaining their relationships.
I admire Nick
Vujicic and in particular the parents who raised him, who has against
all odds with no arms and no legs from birth, made an incredible life
for himself and now teaches others how to do the same. I
admire
people like Trisha Broadbridge who are able to turn a tragedy into a
positive.
I admire Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward who against
all odds for Hollywood relationships maintained their married life
through thick and thin. They did what they did really well and achieved
great recognition in their field. They then used that notoriety to the
benefit others hugely. I admire Janine Allis who built Boost
while being married and with children.
I admire Joanna Martin
who has applied herself to learning and challenges herself to be the
best she can be and maintains her relationship at the same time.
Question
4 It
takes a lot of determination and dedication to succeed in
business. What keeps you motivated?
The thought that
in some way be it
ever so small that I can make a difference in other people’s
lives and as a result of that, the world around me. My
children
and the support of my man help keep me on track.
Question
5 What
are your 3 biggest success tips?
- Surround yourself with people who hold you firmly and
supportively accountable.
- Find the benefit in everything that happens and be
grateful for
everything … get yourself to the point where you can be
excited
by the things that go wrong because you understand that you were given
that challenge as a lesson to prepare you for the wonderful things that
are about to happen.
- Look for the synchronicity in life, the more times
you see it the
more it happens becoming a self-fulfilling prophecy … and
then
it feels like magic.
