Many of you have been asking about how I see the current state of the real estate market. When the economy starts to dip, our jobs or income can be put in jeopardy. Despite all that, I 100% believe that now is the time to start your real estate business!
There will be a lot fewer properties that go above the asking price. So, there’s no better time to make offers and close deals than now.

How I see the real estate market right now
What should you do to succeed in the current state of the market

REI Network with Gavin Timms

I am opening up a brand new virtual market as a challenge with Joe McCall! This is exciting! You will get the chance to see firsthand how I set up strategies and put marketing in place, as I establish this new virtual market. Starting from what I specifically look at when I’m picking the market, to how I pull lists, to deciding what marketing channels I’m going to use and what tools I’m going to use to make this happen.
I’m going to give my best effort in doing this for the next 30 days. So, stay tuned on this journey because it’s gonna be pretty awesome. The goal is to get a contract within 30 days and I’m confident that not only will we get a contract, but we can get a lot in closing!
What’s inside:
The steps I follow when I start a brand new market.
How and where do I pull lists?
What marketing channel do I use for generating leads?

#051: Marketing That Works Today - 6 Under Contract in 30 Days
REI Network with Gavin Timms
06/29/21 • 41 min
Consistency is extremely important when it comes to making a living with real estate. If you want to do this full time, like I know a lot of you do, you’re going to have to gain a certain level of consistency when it comes to doing deals. You can’t close on four contracts one month, and only one contract the next, and expect for that to be workable as your main source of income.
That’s what I’ve got my friend Chris Arnold on today to talk about how he was able to up his consistency. It took him about 90 days to really get going to where he had multiple contracts a month. But then, Chris hit a few speed bumps. His acquisitions manager ran into some health problems, and suddenly Chris was left to do everything on his own.
Left alone with an overwhelming number of leads coming in, Chris had to step back and reevaluate what he was doing. It turns out he had given a little too much leeway to his acquisitions guy, and without him, he was in way over his head.
I’ve learned this the hard way. The quickest way to tank a business is to hand it over to someone else. Even as you start to outsource your administration tasks, you still need to stay involved and check in with your people every so often.
By focusing on only the best leads, Chris was able to regain control of his business, and when his acquisitions manager came back, they worked up a new system for sharing the load. The trick was to slow down, but never stop.
The biggest key to making consistent deals, though, is in the communication work. You have to try and make 50 calls a day to get that lead pipeline established. Chris doesn’t always get to all 50 calls every day, but guess what: he tries, and by making that volume of calls, he’s consistently bringing in 6 contracts a month. And texting works wonders too; a lot of people that don’t like to talk on the phone will answer a text.
To get ahead in the game, go to BatchLeads.io/gavin and sign up today for access to over 5000 records. Plus, we’ve got a text system that helps automate and organize the process for you. And to join the group with Chris and me, go to REInetwork.com/join
What’s Inside:
- Consistency is the key.
- How to up your number of successful contracts per month.
- Sometimes you need to slow down: but don’t ever stop.
- Focus on working on the business, not in the business.
Live MAD Bootcamp - Marketing, Automation, Delegation - Feb 11-12
REI Network with Gavin Timms
02/08/22 • 24 min
Joe and I just came out of a 3-day free challenge a couple of weeks ago where I virtually went into a new market for houses and Joe went into vacant land. We did the 3-day challenge, did real marketing the next 9 days after and we documented the whole thing.
I briefly talk about my experience from that challenge and what I’ve done next to cultivate those leads. I budgeted $1000 that will cover a month of marketing where I have my VA skip tracing, cold calling, and doing other tasks to get these leads. As for Joe, there are 3,006 counties in the United States and he went into 2 counties for vacant land leads. He’s spent $800 on direct mail for each county and leads have started coming in a couple of days ago.
So why are we sharing this? We’ve been teaching marketing, automation, and delegation for years. This is a huge part of our bread and butter. Over the years of being in the REI business, both Joe and I have learned that you can avoid wasting thousands of dollars on bad marketing, you can eliminate tedious tasks by setting up an effective system and you can have someone else doing the tedious work for you!
If this is something you believe you need to know, we’ve got a M.A.D. Bootcamp coming up. In this 2-day live virtual event, we’ll teach you what you need to know about Marketing, Automation, and Delegation that will take your REI business to the next level. We will unlock all our “M.A.D. Scientist” secret recipes and reveal everything you need to be successful in 2022!
Join me and Joe on February 11 & 12, 11am-7pm Eastern, for our MADBootcamp, and tickets are selling fast! This 2-day event has a total value of $8,482 but we’re offering it to you for just $97! You do not want to miss out on this.

#056: Partnering Up Made Me More Money with Less Effort with Michael Schwartz
REI Network with Gavin Timms
08/03/21 • 32 min
Want to make more money for less work? Of course, you do! We all do. And our guest today, Michael Schwartz, is going to tell us all about how he was able to accomplish both of these things by spending time and effort building a good team.
It’s all about working on the business, not in the business. Michael learned the hard way that when he was doing everything himself, leads were slipping through the cracks. There’s just only so much that any one person can handle. By partnering up with another investor and hiring a “boots on the ground” guy to look at properties for him, Michael was able to free up his time, while also getting more deals done.
I like to break real estate investing down into three phases. Phase 1 is learning the basics, and getting some deals done. Phase 2 is when you start to grow and add to your company by outsourcing and delegating. Phase 3 is when you can sit back and watch the business run itself.
It takes time and work to get there, but Michael is about to move from Phase 2 to Phase 3, and he shares some advice and tips he learned during his journey.
To get involved in the program yourself, go to REInetwork.com/join.
What's Inside:
- Don’t try to go it alone.
- Partnerships mean more deals, and more deals mean more money.
- The 3 Phases of real estate investing.
- How to build a consistent marketing plan.

I’m going to be talking to you about how to settle down on your “why”, and some strategies to help you break your goals down into manageable pieces.

I lay out some simple steps for you just like I do for my on-to-one clients so that you can see what it’s like to have someone else remove all of the noise in your head. Don’t get stuck by analysis paralysis. Let’s focus on the things you can control and let go of everything else.

#074: 35K Check Proves You Should Never Give Up! with Pepe Campos
REI Network with Gavin Timms
12/14/21 • 30 min
Pepe Campos is a client of mine and I wanted to bring him on to pick his brain on a great deal he just did. He’s a civil engineer who got into real estate a couple of years ago. Pepe became interested in lease options, started exploring on his own, heard about my marketing systems, which led him to come work with me. He really knows the value of being consistent and he couldn’t have done his recent deal without it.
Pepe breaks down how he made $35,000 on an assignment after paying a seller on a creative deal that had been on the market for 6 months and didn’t sell. Your first option might not always work with your buyer or seller so it’s up to you to get creative and transition to some new ideas. He also created a great sense of trust with the owner in this deal and stayed honest when presenting different creative financing alternatives.
Getting into a confident mindset that you’re capable of closing deals can take you far in real estate, especially when you’re just starting out. So many people want instant gratification and money for doing little to no work, and that kind of attitude doesn’t make things happen. Pepe is proof that when you stick with it, you can walk away with a lot more than you bargained for.
What’s Inside:
- Why consistency is important when finding and closing deals.
- How creating trust and building rapport can go a long way.
- Why it pays to stay motivated and get out of your comfort zone.

#067: Marketing That Works in Today's Crazy Market
REI Network with Gavin Timms
10/26/21 • 21 min
With all of the marketing tools available today, it can be tough to narrow in on what’s going to work best for your business. It often comes down to time and money, both of which translate into more leads. It’s important to spend time thinking about where you are in your real estate journey and just how much you can commit to a marketing strategy. From there you can choose what fits and start building a foundation.
One key thing to remember is that whatever you focus on is what’s going to get you results, no matter which strategy you choose. I’m a big fan of cold calling and it’s always helped me generate leads. Cold calling is a great way to practice feeling comfortable on the phone and it’s free to do yourself. There will always be people out there saying that certain marketing strategies are outdated or don’t work, but if you’re seeing results from something, keep going.
If you’re just starting out and don’t have any money to spend on a marketing budget, the best thing you can do is start networking. Partnering with other people and working wholesalers can help you build solid relationships that will generate prospects and lead to deals down the road. The best advice is to just get started. I’ve made mistakes as I went along, but I don’t regret them because I was taking massive action. I learned along the way and so can you.
What’s Inside:
- How to narrow in on your marketing strategy.
- What types of marketing are working today.
- Which marketing strategies to focus on if you don’t have money.
- The difference between reactive and proactive marketing.

#060: The Fastest Way to Do a Wholesale Deal Using No Money
REI Network with Gavin Timms
09/09/21 • 18 min
To succeed in the business of real estate marketing, you need two things: time and money. Well, today, I’m here to tell you that you can actually get started in this business without putting any money down at all. And I don’t just mean to buy the property: I mean no money spent on marketing either.
The best thing is, I know this technique works. It's how I got my start in real estate.
So, how does it work? Well, it all starts with networking. You’ve got to make connections with other investors and realtors, and build relationships with them. Start small, by focusing on just one or two people to work with.
The thing is, most investors don’t properly do their follow-up, which means they are leaving money on the table. 90% of your deals are going to come from good follow-up. So, once you have a good relationship with an investor, ask them if you can take some of their dead leads and follow up on them. If anything comes of the leads, you split the deal 50/50. All you need to do is be able to use a phone, and you can start making money.
Once you’ve done this a few times, you have the money to start taking the lead yourself and really growing your business into what you want it to be. I did exactly that, and now I’m traveling the country in an RV with my family, doing deals on the road, and having the time of my life.

#106: BatchLeads 3.0
REI Network with Gavin Timms
09/23/22 • 30 min
You all know that BatchLeads is a huge part of my wholesale operation, and I use it in all markets I am in. I use BatchLeads as the hub of all my records and it makes my day-to-day activities a lot simpler and more manageable. That is why I am excited to feature the co-founder of BatchLeads, Jesse Burrell. We will talk about why they decided to create BatchLeads and the new features they recently added.
There are a lot of software companies out there that don’t understand what real estate investors do, and it is a huge problem. The co-founders of Batchleads has a background in real estate investing, and I believe that having that background helps them come up with the products that we, as real estate investors, need.

Problems Jesse and other BatchLeads co-founders faced that made them create Batchleads to help other real estate investors
