2007 is just a few weeks away. This is the perfect time to take a step
back and start thinking about how to make your coming year as profitable
and successful as possible.
We start things off this month with an article by Sharon Teitelbaum, a
Work-Life and Career Coach specifically trained to work with professionals
in the real estate industry. Sharon has coached a number of successful
investors, and in her article, "Getting Clear For a Great Next Year - Why
Goal-Setting Isn't Enough," she offers five, specific recommendations for
starting or growing your real estate business in the coming year.
Next, veteran investor Eric Woolhiser, of EXIT Advantage Realty, presents
a compelling argument for employing an effective, but often overlooked
tactic: Door knocking. Eric explains why and how he does it, and provides
three important suggestions for making this tool work for you. If you've
thought about door knocking but have yet to put it into practice, this
article is not to be missed.
Our Nothing Succeeds Like Success spotlight this month is on Dana
Robinson, an investor and realtor with Jack Conway & Company, Inc. Making
foreclosure deals begins with winning the trust of homeowners, and Dana
attributes much of his success in this regard to something he calls a "CRE
Kit." Read our interview with Dana this month to find out what a CRE Kit
is and how to use it.
And finally, as always, we round out this issue with another installment
of "Debbie Siegel's Mortgage Minute," our monthly column in which mortgage
expert Debbie Siegel explains a critical real estate investing concept.
This month, Debbie takes a look at mortgage insurance - what it is, why
it's required, and who it protects (hint: It's not you).

We wish you and your family a happy and healthy holiday season, and look
forward to working together to your success in 2007!
