4:09What Makes The Easy Sell Team Different
We can't do this on our own you know it's all about the people that we have on our team we have the vision we have the the foresight and the insight and the the the absolute you know overall way to get this done but if we didn't have people inside our organization that could actually execute the plan and help us facilitate and if we didn't have people that were like-minded with similar values we wouldn't be where we are today so I love the fact that we're doing this but I even love more so the team that we have that supports us and that shares in the vision because we couldn't do without them so thank you team easy cell you guys Rock give them a shout out most people don't do that enough and as we tend to do that weekly folks out there you know we have to commend the people that are on our team and that are giving pushing out our vision they were trained our way and it's we wouldn't none of us would be where we are without the team there's a lion team and absolutely you know every Monday we're doing that you know we're thanking everybody and we we were notorious for that because we want everybody to know that this could not be done without you guys it's it's a team environment a team sport you know this is not an I sports a we sport and I'm so freakin blessed and happy that we have the people help we just got two new young guys that we recruited in and I think they're in their mid 20s right yeah about mid 20s to Joe ruling training yeah Joe and John and they just they fit the mold of the people that we're looking for their values their energy the way they think the way they interact the way in which they're like inspired to learn I mean these guys they're gonna they're gonna actually kill it for us and kill it for themselves absolutely absolutely it's nice to see these guys all the team we just did our meeting now and everybody just gelling together and having the same ideas and they just feed right off of each other's energy just when you see it come together man it's you just hit it on the head cause it's like the most important part of any organization is the energy that's within it yeah and the energy really stops starts from the people up top yeah it starts from us if we were negative individuals if we came in with you know the weight of the world on our shoulders because listen we all have personal crap that we go through on a daily basis we might be on the radio we might have this great business but personally we're all dealing with things that we have to deal with and if we would bring that baggage that luggage into our office the whole office will be upside down and so the energy starts from the beginning from the top and that's us and it trickles down throughout the whole entire organization I love nothing more we do these Huddle's every single day we do these sales Huddle's it's not operations just sales from 855 the 9:05 9/10 it's virtual it's on your phone video chat the whole nine yards and the energy that comes through the enemy first off they go through the KPIs key performance indicators they going through the wins from yesterday what they're excited about today and Justin by the way is killing it with that you know we instill this little process with him he took it made it his own and he's just having a great time doing it but when you're on those calls and you listen to the energy at the end because we whoever had either the most deals or the best deal of whoever helps somebody you know out of a really hard situation he's the one who kicks off and he has one question he asked the group and he screams it what are you gonna do and everybody in unison is like eight guys in the phone now they scream at the top of the lungs now imagine this you're at home you're in a restaurant you're somewhere you're screaming whatever it takes and these kinds of it three times and the energy but what that does it sets the tone for the day it sets the mindset of where they need to go puts them in that state and that's important you have to have the right state because like us like them everybody has personal crap to dealing with kids at the home the wife of the home the husband at the home whatever it may be so they have to make sure when they're ready to go out and connect with the sellers that we're dealing with that they're in a prime state so I got to tell you one of the guys that you do business with a lot because you're dealing with the back end the rehabs who's the who's the big guy right yeah so Eddie some of them are at that thing and already he's adapting right so everybody has we do it with the contractors in the morning he saw that in the in the in the office he was in there when you were having him do one of the one of the offices in there and he listened to the whatever it takes and he posted on Facebook do the energy it's like me up I'm like yo steal and redistribute like take what we're doing and implementing business cards people to do that's why we put it out there absolutely people do the incantations and I love it Karl he's not really yelling he's actually getting excited you know so our team is everywhere if you if you would actually also if we can get a picture of every because some of them were at home like you said some of them in front of a store something hot car if we could have a picture of everybody as they yelling cuz we see everybody you know they're watching them it's on the zoom what are you screaming at officer like you know but that's I'm fine with that I have no problem with people in office building say what's going on I get it quiet down there I love when the house rocks love it so yeah that's where that's where about guys where we are a real estate investment company but
8:49Why Easy Sell is About Helping People
Really we're in the in the service of helping people and that's our primary focus is taking people in a situation and putting them into a better situation whether it be us buying their home or us putting them in contact that somebody could help them if it's not a good fit for us to purchase right so let's get into some of the case studies right because we had one deal that we just got done closing which was I think we were in contract with this property for like what six months better six months or a deal so initially this lead came in through one of the Realtors and we don't buy a lot of property through Realtors by the way we should start really getting back into that mode because a lot of our consumers come more sellers rather come direct to us off the market so but this guy Jimmy he actually called this up and he said look I have a property I think he might be interested in and it was just about to get on the market and we went over and we checked out the property listen the house was a wreck and he did a ton of work and everything semi hoarder that owned the property lived there and she ended up passing away but she rented out bedrooms so it was a this was chopped up like no other would she have like seven or eight people living in a house oh yeah seven bed and some would just doubled up and there was kitchens everywhere and just as a back story she I think she was in her mid 70s or early 80s and she was quote-unquote a masseuse that she so I don't even want to ask any questions about no black lights in that room yeah it's amazing I mean how many people have these chopped them up this might have been this might have been one of those I think most chopped up house I think we've ever seen you know we'd had little rooms in a pair so I mean you probably could have had 20 some people or anything so we got we got to lean five kitchens and we were dealing with the estate and the attorneys and everything else and you know because we were dealing with an estate on this one through an attorney and an realtor that came to us Tareq we're obviously not gonna buy it with every living in it just the price that warranted so we said you know we have to make sure that we're gonna buy the house vacant there's gonna be no occupancies now let me backtrack for a second put that on pause when we're dealing with consumers out there people who want to sell our home direct we will buy your house with tenants in it if they're not paying so I just want to make sure it clarified yeah this one we were dealing with a property it was on the market MLS so our condition was we'll buy it we'll buy it has to be vacant it took the estate about six months to get just about everybody out of the home except for one guy this one gentleman did not want to leave he was he was giving them a hard time they were trying every avenue they legally knew how to get him out and it just wasn't working so they came to us after a few months and like look would you mind closing with this person in it and you know we looked at it and we said it's the numbers just don't make any sense it just it's not gonna work for us and and so back and forth negotiating we finally got to an agreement where they gave us a price concession we had to come in we took the property with the tenant inside the home then their problem is no longer that problem comes on the hard shoulders right so what do we do we went down tell him exactly we did well we actually used some of the services so actually Social Services did get involved and we're actually able to get him into a homeless shelter you know the gentleman was quite some time it took some time and effort it didn't happen overnight but it was a lot of headache and calls and meeting people and finding out we know the background on the gentleman where it come from how he ended up in this house cuz we could even get to the bottom of that there were so many people in this house how he ended up there was almost actually he had a mental yeah we found out that he was mentally incapacitated he had some sort of a challenge he had a challenge he was schizo or what he was movie office space where they kind of pushed some one guy to the side they just don't know how he got there they just keep pushing him to the side for suicide it the key was they couldn't find the paperwork they couldn't figure out how he was there they were going back years and years where he was how he got to how he was expired and it was like just kind of somebody had slipped through the cracks almost it's amazing so what it when we bought it we had a contact you know the who do we contact like the mental health department social social services there was a couple of different departments we had to handle those types of people yeah and so it took us a little bit of time we bought the property again now the sellers were out they got their cash the challenge became our challenge our problem and we we were able to after some time able to relocate him and put him into either a homeless shelter or a wait so I'm something with social services and any weight sauna less than any weights in a list yeah but at least he was you know he was safe he wasn't just put out there would you like something we don't like to do that but you know what think back now bill on how many people now were in that house that we actually helped to place now we use some of our services to place them in houses that we're involved in see that's a good
13:25Easy Sell Will Help Place You in a New Home
Point you know and we kind of just talked about that though so let's let's talk about so we have properties right the name of our company again easy sell property solutions so we always look to get a solution for the problem at hand and so in this particular house we had six different people that we live in there four of the six they had they had places they can go it took him a little bit of time they found apartments and whatnot but there was another older gentleman really you and I connected his name remembers names names - John Oh Barry anyway we it's phenomenal cuz he was like he was like seven years old you look at you was 40 yeah interesting guy but he had nobody he had nobody here that he can move in with he didn't have a lot of money and so we have another house that we own in Patchogue it's a veteran's house and we found out this guy was a vet and we said you know what and he had nowhere to go and he was kind of nervous and so just like we did a few months back with the gentleman from East Meadow we said you know what don't stress we have a 24 unit and a six unit right here in Patchogue why don't you go and check it out we cut him a very good deal so he could afford living in that property we helped him move his stuff in then at home and I mean it's doing things like that regular people in business they don't really give a damn about the people it's all about the bottom line in the dollars and if you start connecting caring for the people the bottom line is gonna be there it's going to happen the money's gonna come if you realize that if you take care of this of the people first profits will eventually follow but everybody has that freaking reverse now they do their difficut if you give it's gonna come back you know we're gonna sit in servicing free floor it was a different way yeah I don't service interview people kind of forget that yeah you're there to service the clients and that means that there are people inside that house if we're servicing the client that sells those house we deal with some of the people inside the house and you know it's a service is it to know that we puts him in a better situation like and he's happy he's happier now he's with a bunch of other people like-minded people they could all hang out they could all just live a better life and you just talked about that guy in East Meadow that we gave that guy second chance at life by putting him into that was a gentleman who I don't think left this house for seven or eight years now he's back to normal eating normal showering normal with other people sharing I hope some guidelines gonna mean put giving people a second chance at life it's like it's like what you know we're able to wipe their slates clean I don't think I don't think a lot of people could really comprehend what that means I you know we're not we're in business and it is a for-profit business but it's people before profits and Matt want to give a shout out to you buddy because I stole that line from you because it's not just a line that's what we believe Mattia yeah and he's just a solid individual but you know just this whole thing with him moving out so now we have now we have a house that clean slate we can go in and tell me how you doing with the project cuz we just started this water we can half go this Brentwood property this will only past week they just clean in a nice yeah they're just cleaning that took two or three days to get a little garbage out of there now they got it two or three days extensions a little sheds I mean people will live in every way what is that property get a core system renovate and we'll be into that probably for like a Hearton 20 it's a big renovation 10 yeah that's a big what size house about 3,000 square feet give or take you it's an expanded Rancho hold extension on the back plus a two-car garage and it was legal accepted a couple couple of weird-looking shed things that one thing on the side that was all illegal that's all coming off but everything else was legal sang in the 70s so purpose of this right purposes whole exercise of going

21:35The Wild Weekend For Easy Sell
With the center each house that we have cuz I see three wagons in front of a house I see someone I don't know squatting lady like what the hell went on you know apparently there is a celebrity over in the middle country or a celebrity Liberty she's a half half naked homeless woman she's consistent older lady it's getting cooler now she's got a hoodie on now she's hurting herself up and she's got three cards so she's got a little system she puts a little you know she puts a card and she drags him and somehow she just decided that she was gonna move into the house how did she get in and we don't know we actually do not know so we don't know if a realtor at left that left a door open which nobody seemed to fess up on or she went through a window I'm thinking she might have called to her window that's what might of the neighbors but um but she got in I guess the cops knew her so they they saw her carts so how long was she in the property maker she must have made it overnight no she must have got in in the middle of the night and the cops saw in them and earlier that day so think I guess you know obviously she's well-known over there the cops had called right away then they went into the house and she had said oh no no no I rent I rent the room from the cops like alright hold on let me just call Wayne and then they called the office that couldn't get me one of the girls called and I said no it goes we're gonna get her out but I want you to send somebody down here no he's asking if we had anything on the cameras and you know we put signs up but it was it was pretty funny so now this woman she already packed up in the carts she was taking some of our staging material she was taking like some of the furniture from house to house she making the blue totes they were in the cart so oh my I said Dave out to the house and Dave's taking pictures he's taking figures to her pictures of the car and I go dude look at the cart that's half our like you got to get the stuff out of the court it's a small world over there I guess it got out so quick as a lot of people see your signs I know who we are I guess a couple people on the middle country moms and a couple other things we're then texting and saying things and I was getting messages from other people like hey Wayne something's going on your house like I cops were there we're sending people there it's like business you got a lot of problems so I'm just I'm confused so the so cops were driving by and they saw her three carts parked outside the house the garage California so they had the county for having eyeballs to look at that man I mean honestly if nobody called and they just kind of drove by and they know about this lady like cool for them thanks thanks to those police officers that did that listen not a major thing but it's good oh yeah if they stick around I mean luckily we have people that rotate our houses every couple days
24:30Why You Should Check Your Properties Often
And check on them but you know folks if you're out there and you don't check on your properties once every few weeks these ladies people move in and all of a sudden they turn on utilities and now you dealing with an eviction it's insane so she brought some sick filled up the refrigerator she put yogurt she made itself and on the other side as funny as this is you know dealing with our properties and I want to go in because you've had some crazy-ass experiences with properties that we've that we've purchased on what went on but the sad thing is dude I mean this is like the people side of it now the sad thing is is that we have people that are homeless stay in age in Long Island and what how old was she 50 60 70 bit mad like you know what consumed older freaking lady homeless Long Island that sucks like that whole thing pisses me off that somebody's even homelessness day in age and that she doesn't have family to take care of her kids or in-laws is something or I mean just a leg up just this I mean act that it kills me outside it's so terrible and now that it's getting colder that's when it gets thoughts getting worse yeah and that's when people start no usually that's when the break-in starting that's when the scams all start coming back and right and that's listen I always said if you're gonna be homeless I wouldn't do it here I'd be doing in San Diego I do it so many ways 75 80 years I save you money you get about lights in the country gonna do but you're not doing in New York you know cold again oh but just to think about the homeless it's just it's it sickens me I feel bad man I feel bad we should take all the freakin money that the government's put an ad of country and we should take care of our own first and then once we have this country in order then we could care about the rest of the frickin world right I mean it's just I don't know a whole different topic in a different subject but it just pisses me off but some funny stories come out of it so now let's get when to the one because I know we had we had a couple of properties one of them that comes to mind is the one over and I think it was in not Oakdale Islip was it the Islip property Islip Rob 54 something was the address and all of a sudden was like go into the story what happened like we had a property we've renovated yeah so we had this was a big scam and it's actually focus coming back around I haven't seen in a couple years now but this was probably I don't know three four or five years ago yeah there
26:40The Big Craigslist Real Estate Scam
Was it was big Craigslist scam so basically what they would do is they would look for houses that were vacant recently renovated whatnot they knew nobody was living in him they would get into the houses nicely get in like they didn't break windows and stuff but they figured out ways to get into the house they would pose as myself or the realtor that was on the sign saying we're going to rent the house they would post it on Craigslist they would meet people at the house Wow literally start getting leases sign why it's not taking the deposits exactly these people would doing it so we had a call one day that was in that Isis when somebody says listen I'm outside with a moving truck about to move in and I'm like what and we have cameras on some certain houses this one didn't have cameras on it and we were like what is going on we sent somebody over there actually called oh yeah they called because they didn't have the keys and they couldn't figure out to get in so folks if you're out mean I I know II shouldn't most people shouldn't be doing this but if you think about it if you're going out and you see somebody that they give you a house and they don't write the two units from well below market value and they're Exeter deposit up front things don't look right you gotta say something because this guy must have got it was over ten grand have another person that it decide it was multiple people and we're trying to move into the house it took like six or seven deposits and on our one house it's 24 to 48 hours so that's when the cops came once it was over ten grand and they all got involved and what a freaking scammer yeah and so it's a big one they were doing that for a while that's gonna come back at people tell me it's coming back again now it what solders do you know and it all comes back again but you have to be careful especially if you're a regular homeowner that maybe moved out of state and you're trying to sell your house and it's vacant or you do what we do you flip properties like you have to have a process to check these houses out on a daily at least once a week to see what's going on because I don't know the

37:00Comparing Cash Home Buyers & What to Ask Them
Property you really want to look and compare apples to apples if you want to go down the road of selling to a cash bar for hassle-free we're not the only game in town there's other people out there who buy properties for cash but you really need to look at the overall company you're dealing with the person you're dealing with the credibility of the people you're dealing with because I can tell

honestly and ethically and we offer you a fair price and we back everything we say we're gonna do in writing mmm everything yeah we could pay for cash oh by the way mr. home seller here's our bank statement the proof we actually have the cash in a bank account if we agree to the terms this is how we protect your house the note we're gonna buy it we take the money out of our operating account and we put it into an account earmark for your property so whenever you want to close you know we know the money's there front for you to make the deal happen yeah you know a lot of people don't go down it so just if you're going to sell your property to a cash buyer and you're shopping around compare apples to apples ask good questions ask to see if they have an office do they have people working for them is it just Bob buying houses Adams does he have a real line of credit real cash is he just gonna lock your property up and then try to wholesale it are you is he gonna say that he'll be willing to lose his down payment money should he not actually close or follow through these are all things you can negotiate in as the home seller we do that this gentleman that look we don't put down a lot of money in every contract for a reason cuz we're going in the contract between 12 and 15 properties a month but this particular gentleman what was as it was in Melville or home Smith Smith town he wanted a large down payment why because he said if you guys don't perform I'm gonna screw you and keep your money and we said you know what you're not gonna screw us because we're gonna close we're either putting down like thirty five thousand dollars of some crap more than we usually do a lot more than we show to put that's to back up to show that that's like folks what you're saying if we put down a larger down payment you know we're serious if we show you a bank statement you know that we're 100% serious the correct funds if we show you a voucher that says if we don't close on your timeline when we come to your house and we're gonna give you a credit you see that we mean business and we give you another voucher that says hey listen we're gonna give you X amount of money to move your belongings out of the house great all credibility you know you see folks what we're getting out here this is all credibility since the due diligence you want to do on a company like that you want to see how reputable I and see that they're going to back up what they're saying because I can't tell you how much do we hear this that everybody says thanks but they don't do it and there's a big difference in business saying it and following through and actually doing it is too freaky different things yeah you know we went out the other night we would just we were at a restaurant and it was just about closing time and it's a service business you remember we went out had some some dinner it's a service business we had a group of eight guys that walked in and it was just about closing time for the food and they have eight new patrons walking into the restaurant and instead of them saying hey fellas what can we get you they're like look it I don't even know if I can get you to food it's gonna close mean he was like this is a service industry so the point is you're in the business to serve people and so you need to do we need to do whatever it takes to serve you the home seller on making this property the sale process fast easy and hassle-free and back it up in writing and actually follow through and do what we say we're gonna do if we just sat here on the radio and gave this lip service and we didn't actually do it we'd be out of business business we wouldn't we be active we would have the reputation but so funny to use an example right that was food so what do we do we went to the next place and the next place still goes in and they had how big was that bill we would and we walked out we spent that money so we went somewhere else and look at all the drinks it all the food and how big that bill was and laughs we had and everything that happened and all the relationships that happen to that yeah service industry yeah that's what folks if we didn't do that and we didn't show you that we're gonna back up where we would expect you to go someplace else hey no doubt hands down no doubt bro yeah good stuff this is actually a good show flew by flew friggin by we have like a minute and a half left so listen I'm gonna close it up and I'm gonna hand
