Steve Dexter, co-author of the Buy and Hold Forever: Building Wealth for the 21st Century, is a successful real estate investor and he is offering advice on quite a few different investment and management topics. Dr. David Schumacher penned the original  over 20 years and it became an instant classic and had a profound effect on Steve Dexter. He became an acolyte of Schumacher and was brought in by his widow, Margaret, to update Buy and Hold with new laws, regulations, market conditions, trends so that the Schumacher Buy and Hold: 7 Steps to a Real Estate Fortuneteaching would continue for a new generation of 21st Century real estate investors.

Before getting to some real estate nuts and bolts, here is an economic sector run down from Steve Dexter from his blog at www.stevedexter.net.

Real Estate: There will be a renewed post-recession interest in real estate as business picks up and companies need appraisal and risk management services. Real estate asset management and consulting and real estate appraisal firms are expected to beef up personnel to accommodate growth, increasing employee numbers at 6.2 percent and 5.6 percent per year, respectively, by 2016.

Environmental preservation: Increasing government regulations will keep the focus on environmental preservation, benefiting businesses in the sustainable building material manufacturing and remediation and environmental cleanup services industries. IBIS World estimates that jobs within these industries will grow 19.3 percent and 6.3 percent per year, respectively, by 2016.

Construction: With economic improvement will come a rebound in the housing market, which will benefit companies involved in multifamily homebuilding, millwork and prefabricated housing? IBIS World expects jobs within these industries to grow annually at 10.9 percent, 6.2 percent and 6.1 percent, respectively, by 2016.

Automotive: This sector was hit hard during the recession, but as consumer confidence climbs so will car sales. Higher automotive demand will benefit used car dealers and auto manufacturers. IBIS World expects annual employment growth of 8.8 percent and 1.5 percent in these industries, respectively, by 2016. Auto manufacturing is not expected to grow as quickly as the other industries listed due to a high level of outsourcing in recent history. However, domestic firms are starting to move some of their manufacturing functions back to the United States. After years of outsourcing, this shift could entirely restructure the recovering industry.

Steve Dexter just returned from a trip to Oklahoma and en route back and forth he stopped in various cities to get the pulse of the economic and real estate investment climate. To learn more about real estate investing, perhaps you should check out Steve Dexter's real estate classes where you can learn about the following topics.

1. Taking the Mystery out of Buying Your First Home

2. Getting the Best Loans and How to Use Debt without Getting into Trouble

3. The Top Fifteen Laws Investors Obey

4. How to Take Advantage of a Changing California Market

5. Buy and Hold Real Estate Forever

6. Property Management Anybody Can Do

The last two are carried on the curriculum at the five colleges where he currently teaches.



Property Management Anybody Can Do is close to his heart as he manages 22 of his 27 houses—he collects the checks, deposits them in the bank, handles the maintenance calls and brings in the right tenants that will pay the rent on time and take care of the premises. It is a very highly paid job and it gets s better as the loans get paid down and the rents increase over time.

And rents in Southern California are going up. With house prices so cheap, this is the perfect storm.

I want to teach you how to do it. You will learn the good and the bad of it. What to look for in an ideal tenant, how to screen them with the lease agreements I use, the very detailed application they fill out and his Can't-Miss-Works-Every-Time-Rent Raise letter.

The class lasts four hours on a Saturday or Sunday and you will learn how you o rent a house out in one day, how to keep and maintain houses that have zero days vacant and no days lost rent and how to rent a house out of state with just a phone and a fax.

He also teaches a class based on a book I co-wrote with his mentor, Dr David Schumacher. Buy and Hold Forever: Building Wealth for the 21st Century covers the gamut of what to buy, how to buy and were to buy. Attendees get a copy of the book and me explaining in detail the concepts. There are so many nuggets and gems in the book... that alone is worth the cost.
