Dean Graziosi
[say Gra-zee-oh-see] became a successful investor at just 16 years of
age, buying and selling automobiles. He moved on to real estate and has
since generated millions of dollars as an investor. His "secrets to
success" are no secret - Dean provides them to people through a series
of infomercials, books, and programs that are designed to help people
do what he did: become a real estate millionaire.
What makes Dean different? Other than his amazing success, Dean is unique because he provides practical
guidance to others who want to make money investing in real estate. He
does not promise overnight success, and he won't tell people that it's
"easy." What he will do is provide people with the specific steps he
takes when buying and selling property - from how to spot a good
investment to what to say in a classified ad.
Dean is also a
best-selling author and head of Dean Enterprises, LLC, which produces
infomercials for other businesses and professionals.
Other Programs & Highlights
After achieving
incredible success as an investor in property and real estate, Dean
Graziosi developed a series of books, infomercials, and programs to
help others do the same. Below is a brief description of each book and
program.
The Automated Foreclosure Finder
Dean's newest program provides people with everything they need to successfully begin investing in foreclosures. The current US
market is experiencing a record-breaking number of foreclosures, and
fortunes will be made by those who know what actions to take now. The
program is a step-by-step method that finds foreclosure properties
using effective classified ads, flyers, and other direct response
techniques. The most amazing part is that it causes property owners to
contact you, rather than you going out and finding them.

Operation Free Home
Operation
Free Home is a program founded and personally funded by Dean Graziosi.
The purpose of the program is to connect homeowners who need to sell
their homes with families in need of a home as a result of financial or
personal hardships.
Individuals
"sponsor" a portion of a home's mortgage payment so that the family in
need has a place to live and the homeowner in need can sell the home.
How it Works
The
system begins with a vacant home. A vacant home is one that a homeowner
still owns but has moved out of. This means the homeowner is probably
paying two mortgage payments and needs to sell the vacant home as
quickly as possible.
The
homeowner or someone simply interested in taking part in the program
begins looking for a sponsor who will accept a portion of the home's
mortgage payment for one year. The easiest way to determine the amount
each sponsor will pay is to divide the monthly payment by the number of
sponsors.
Then,
a recipient family for the home must be located. This can be done in
any number of ways: newspaper ads, media assistance, word-of-mouth,
etc. Interested families submit their stories of hardship, expressing
the ways 12 months in a new home with no house payment will help get
them back on their feet again.
A
deadline is established for story submissions (usually a month to six
weeks), and a recipient family is chosen. Details on the legal forms
and requirements are available in Dean's book, Be a Real Estate Millionaire, but he also provides this information free of charge for the purpose of growing Operation Free Home around the country.
Replicating Operation Free Home
Duplicating
Operation Free Home accomplishes two things: by putting a needy family
in a home that otherwise would remain vacant or unsold because of
market conditions and finding sponsors to help support the effort, the
owner of the home is alleviated from part of the financial burden of
making the monthly mortgage, and a family gets a chance to get back on
their feet.
Dean has set up the framework for individuals to
instantly set up their own cookie-cutter Operation Free Home Web site
which will automate the majority of the work involved. Dean also
provides participants with copies of materials that he uses, including
an instruction booklet and informational brochure. There is
absolutely no charge for any of this. Dean’s goal is to help people
establish successful Operation Free Home launches in their local areas.
