Valentine’s Day is one of the best days of the year for real estate investors. How many deals did you do and how can you take it up a notch for next year?

What better Valentine’s Day gift could there be than keys to a new home, romantic vacation getaway condo by the beach or retreat in the mountains? Without out a doubt it will be a Valentine’s Day to remember and the next person in line will have a hard time out doing you, that’s for sure. It’s probably one of the easiest sales any real estate investor will ever make and it comes at the perfect time of the year when tax refunds are rolling in, snowbirds are flocking to resort areas and consumer’s pockets are recovering from the Christmas holidays.

Of course marketing your homes to the Valentine’s Day crowd just a few days before is probably far too late, especially if those you are flipping homes to require financing. Those who can afford to gift properties for occasions like these are probably mostly allocating their budgets well in advance. Think about starting to market your homes as Valentine’s Day presents as early as the end of the year, especially when so much bonus money is floating around.

While incentives are generally a bad habit to get into when it comes to flipping real estate, this is one occasion that is clearly an exception to the rule. You probably saw the $10 Pizza Hut deal rocketing to $10,000, well why not use the same strategy for your real estate deals? You can offer an entire theme or event for those gifting keys to new properties on Valentine’s Day complete with wrapping the home in a giant ribbon, decorating the inside and perhaps even setting up a romantic catered meal for two in the new digs to celebrate. How much of a premium could you put on your properties then?
