Property Investment Expert Rick Otton Reveals Remote Marketing Strategies in New Podcast
Sydney, Australia (PRWEB) February 06, 2013
The thought of buying or selling a property sight unseen would have seemed impossible not so long ago. But according to Australian property investment strategist, Rick Otton, the advent of Google maps and other forms of technology have made remote marketing and investing increasingly popular among time-poor investors.
Mr Otton is an internationally renowned businessman, author and motivator. He is best known for his non-traditional Creative Real Estate investment strategies, supported by his book and seminars under the How to Buy a House for a Dollar banner.
Were in the business of solving problems for people, so we try and do what it takes to make that happen, said Mr Otton in the podcast.
Long distance property transactions
Special guest on the iTunes podcast, Melbourne-based Sheree Becker, said she had been employing Mr Ottons techniques for about seven years, so successfully that she eventually abandoned her full-time job as an IT project manager.
She said as a dedicated real estate entrepreneur, her typical day involved searching for potential purchases and private sellers on the Internet, phone networking and meeting real estate agents. For Sheree it was a natural progression to Mr Ottons remote property investing techniques, in which she now specialises.
Im doing one such deal right now in Tasmania, actually, Ms Becker explained.
A seller rang me after seeing one of my rent-to-buy signs. She wants to use the rent-to-buy strategy as a way to sell her house. Ive never met her and never seen her house, but Ive already got a few buyers I know who are interested” she explained.
What happens then is the buyers go over and look at the sellers house with the seller there. Any questions about renting to own, how it works and prices are referred to me, while anything to do with the actual house and its features are answered by the seller continued Ms Becker.
Financial Deposit for Security
Mr Otton said once buyers were interested in a particular house, things could move swiftly as financial transactions were not hindered by the complexities of a traditional bank mortgage. Deposits could be made and buyers able to move in within a matter of days, or even weeks.
He said the beauty of his Creative Real Estate strategies was the flexibility and versatility that property investors had in each situation.
You just design the piece of paper to fit all the different situations that come up, Mr Otton said.

Seats Now Limited To Rick Ottons Open To The Public Sydney Property Investment Seminar
(PRWEB) February 06, 2013
Following the success of his real estate book How To Buy A House For A Dollar in 2012, Australian property investment strategist, Rick Otton, is conducting a series of free one day seminars throughout February.
The first event, which is open to the public, takes place on February 10 and, Mr Otton says, is almost at capacity.
Even though I am staging these real estate investment seminars at no cost to participants, it is vital that those wanting to attend register beforehand – if only for logistical reasons, said Mr Otton.
I will be sharing so many new and creative ways for people to become involved in buying and selling real estate, without involving banks, he continued. And standing-room-only isnt the way I like to run these seminars. People need to be seated, to be able to take notes.
Mr Otton believes the one-day seminar will be of particular interest to those who have been unable to secure bank financing, especially those with a poor credit history, inadequate savings for a deposit, or the self-employed who have difficulty proving income continuity.
The Australian real estate investment seminars are part of Mr Ottons personal mission to transform the way property is transacted, and to show that obtaining a bank loan is not the only way to achieve a home ownership dream.
Otton believes that people need to break free of the belief that the only way to capital growth is by following old and outdated models.
My purpose has grown from creating time and financial freedom for my wife and myself, to being able to help as many people as possible see things differently and create their own freedom, said Mr Otton.
The first of Rick Ottons property investment seminars is being held in Sydney on February 10, with subsequent dates in Melbourne, Brisbane and Perth. Registrations can be made at http://www.howtobuyahouseforadollar.com
