How Real Estate Investor Winston Deloney Used These Free Tools To Train For Success

It’s great to have you, Winston. Tell us, did you always set out to be a real estate investor?

I think nobody ever has their life figured out from the start. When I was in high school, I had dreams of being a 9-5 professional. But as I grew up and experienced life, I figured I wasn’t exactly cut out for that kind of life.

I read a couple of books on real estate investment and they piqued my interest. As the years rolled by, I got opportunities to invest in real estate and I grabbed them. Since then, I’ve never looked back.

How do you position yourself for success in the Real Estate industry?

My success regimen is to train to be the best. I read books and keep myself abreast of every detail in the industry and share everything I know on my blog. I also use a couple of tech tools to beat the best in the industry. They make work easier and helps you gain the trust of clients.

What are some of these tools that you’ve trained with over the years?

I mainly use free software and marketing tools to gain insights into the industry and analyse my investments. I use about three tools that I can list off the top of my head.

  1. DotLoop helps me create contracts electronically and exchange them easily with clients and agents.
  2. Reiwise is a tool that gives me free real estate analysis and allows me electronically arrange my tasks for each period.
  3. Simplifyem helps me track all my property investments and financial returns on them.

Do you advise young entrepreneurs to use these tools?

Definitely, I’d advise them to. But they must realize that it’s best for training purposes. It shouldn’t replace your market research.

How influential do you think tech savvy real estate investors will be in the coming years?

I’d say we are the future. I say “we” because I believe I am a principal part of this group. We will chart the course for the value of the industry in the next few years and while others struggle to catch up with new technology, we are poised to readily adapt.
