From the Learning Curve to Real Estate Reality with Gerhard Maree

Dec 5, 2018

Gerhard Maree is the owner of Maree Properties LLC, a real estate company that buys houses in Berks County, PA with the intent of helping sellers who don’t want to let go of their properties the traditional way. His business focus is built on fix and flips, but he also plans on acquiring rentals in case the market gets stale. He prides himself on being a “computer guy” by maximizing the current technology to improve his business.

Today, Gerhard joins me to share the ins and outs of his business and what makes everything work in between. He describes how he and his wife thought about becoming real estate investors and shares what their first deal was like. He discusses some of the tactics he uses in marketing, lead generation, and optimizing his business performance. Gerhard also explains how he gets private money and how to make yourself attractive to lenders.

  

“Once you find a deal, you gotta keep on marketing. You cannot stop.” - Gerhard Maree
