Welcome back to the Property Prophets Podcast, hosted by Travis Wells. In today's episode, we're diving into a critical aspect of the real estate business – The Mindset. 

Travis shares insights from a recent coaching call where a client expressed doubts about tackling certain types of deals due to financial constraints. His response was clear: "Good deals find money." Real estate is undoubtedly capital-intensive, especially when building a portfolio. However, for those interested in wholesaling, flipping, or other ventures, the right deal can attract the necessary funds.

Key Takeaways:

1. Mindset Shift: Embrace the belief that good deals attract money. If you find a deal at half price, there's a buyer willing to pay for it. Often, all it takes is a $10 earnest money deposit to get started.

2. Skill Development: Closing deals requires skill. If marketing isn’t your strength, consider partnering with someone who has leads you can close.

3. Simple Formulas:

- Cash Offers: Use the formula 70% of ARV (After Repair Value) minus repairs. For example, a $100,000 house would result in a cash offer of $70,000 after accounting for 30% off. Subtract repairs and your wholesale fee to find your target price.

-Novation Deals: For higher-priced properties, subtract 10% from the selling price, then subtract your wholesale fee and any necessary updates to determine your offer.

4. Negotiation Tactics: Understand that either you get your price or your terms. Balance between interest points and price reductions to secure favorable deals.

Travis emphasizes the importance of continuous learning and adapting.
