Real Estate Investing and When You are Sick!

One of the questions that comes up sometimes is how do I conduct my business when I am sick?

This is all the more reason why you need to automate your business so it can run while you are watching reruns of 'The Dog Whisperer' on National Geographic.

Let's look at how business is being conducted while I am not available.

Phone calls from marketing go where? They go directly to my broker in each state that I am working in.

The Cell Phone goes on silent and the call forwarding is now set to go to voicemail after five seconds. Why? So I can see who called but I am not tempted to answer the phone, no matter who it is. You might think this would be mean to your family if they are trying to reach you but they are all aware of how I answer when I am sick or in the middle of something that cannot be interrupted.

Not calling them back, now that would be rude.

WHAT IF I HAVE A CLOSING THAT DAY? I CAN'T MISS THAT.

If you remember from 'Avoid the Closing' we have a 'Limited Power of Attorney' setup with our title company so that they can sign the closing documents for you.

WHAT IF A DEAL COMES UP THAT I NEED TO GO AND GET A CONTRACT?

Perfect! Your Realtor will be receiving the calls for you and they can go out and get a contract for you. All contracts are subject to inspection.

I can go on and on about automation but this is a great time to plug the book. You can check out a few items and get all of the latest techniques by jumping right over to
