Books on real estate are a dime a dozen—and most focus on taking advantage of someone else’s misfortune. They frequently describe lofty methods for buying and selling properties no ordinary citizen can be successful using. Real estate professional Dan Auito has had enough of books that waste people’s time, money, and effort, and sap their will to believe in their abilities. So he has written “Magic Bullets in Real Estate: Your Guide to Understanding and Using Real Estate to Your Best Advantage,” which reveals how every person can live a life of prosperity and security. It describes in detail a concrete plan to find, negotiate, contract, buy, sell, rehabilitate, and flip properties—as well as manage tenants, taxes and tradesmen. “The book gives strategies on how to zero in on specific real estate,” explained Auito, who has bought, sold and rented many properties over last fourteen years. “It gives practical, affordable steps for achieving results—without paying commissions or management fees.” This common sense, enthusiastic guide dispels myth that investors need agents and managers to work on their behalf. It describes how to use mentors, appraisers, real estate attorneys, title companies, lenders and a supportive group of educated parties to inform, educate, guide and encourage. Auito said that by reading about what has worked for him and seeing how it has worked, individuals can save vast amounts of money and frustration.

During past year, trading in online commerce was valued at $60 billion, according to "Business Standard.” Online trade among small businesses makes up 1 per cent of USA's GDP (Gross Domestic Product) and is expected to reach 10 per cent or $400 billion of USA's GDP by 2010. “But setting up and maintaining operations on huge auction sites like Ebay is not always easy,” said Rich Moc, owner of Performance Cars at Pcars.com, a niche automotive auction site. “People can spend a lot of time sifting through cluttered pages of auctions, bidding, setting up accounts and managing multiple, confusing and expensive fees that can take an accountant to figure out. And trying to figure out how to submit a simple email or place a quick call for help can be a pain in neck.” The solution or pain relief for big auction headaches? Smaller, niche sites with personalized service. For example, Performance Cars offers easier management, one-on-one help and plenty of options to help with automotive solutions and aftermarket selling. Some of their auction tips are: · Customer Service - When you have an item listed and a potential buyer contacts you with a question, respond quickly. It is important and actually critical to your success to check your email account several times a day. Answering a question could be difference between you getting sale or buyer going someplace else. · Description - When you list your item(s), write an accurate description. No need to write long paragraphs of rambling information. But do provide exact measurements, colors, condition, etc. Be precise. · Exceed Expectations - You want every customer to be happy. So do a little more research on shipping, or negotiate on price. But remember that customer is reason you will have success. Be prepared to go extra mile and provide superior service every time.
