Being a real estate bird dog allows you to “Earn while you learn” real estate investing. Imagine getting paid an extra $2000-$5,000 a month just for locating properties. The best part is that while your making all that extra money, you will also be learning all about buying and selling investment properties. Think about it for a minute, what is the best way to learn anything? If you answered practice, then your correct.

Up until now you could never practice real estate investing, unless you were playing monopoly of course. Being a real estate bird dog allows you to practice real estate investing, because you can follow the progress of each of the homes that you were paid to locate. For instance, an investor may pay you $1000.00 bird dog fee, which is very good for only doing a couple of hours of work. But the best part is that you can watch how that investor rehabs and sells the property. Once you have seen your investors make $20,000-$30,000 profit, it won’t take long for you to develop the confidence that you need to start investing on your own.

Another great thing about becoming a real estate bird dog, is that it will allow you to make full time pay for working part time hours. If you have about 3-4 hours a week to dedicate to your real estate bird dog business you can quickly start pocketing $2,000-$5,000 a month. As a real estate bird dog you are in the perfect position to move onto other endeavors such as wholesaling, because you can take the same buyers that you use for bird dogging and use them to wholesale homes to.
