Episode 267: Probate Real Estate, with Ernie Vargas

The Smart Real Estate Coach Podcast|Real Estate Investing

Ernie Vargas purchased his first house in 1994, not really knowing what he was doing. He continued doing real estate part time while working full time jobs not really hitting the success he felt he was capable of. In 1999, after an accident that placed him in a coma he realized that life was short and he needed to make a major change as he didn’t want to continue to live a life where he had to ask a ”boss” for permission to take time off to spend quality time with his family, so he quit his job and went full time into investing.

It wasn’t until 2000 that probate hit his radar, which pushed him on the quest to learn all he could about this niche that no one had answers for. After many years of specializing in probate, he has become a true probate expert often helping even attorneys and their clients in the probate process. His ability to think outside the box coupled with his expertise in negotiating and marketing, has allowed him to help, as of today 847 investors, agents, and sellers get the deal closed. He is therefore, the secret weapon consultant to the who’s who in the secret society of 8 figure income earners of the real estate community.

Now Ernie not only has more time to spend with his wife and four kids traveling but he gets to do what he truly loves doing- helping everyday people create an exceptional real estate business through his automated, systemized way of doing real estate that gives them more money and personal freedom than they’ve ever had before.
