THE CONTEST
Welcome … to MustKnowInvesting.com’s first annual …
“Battle of the REI Blogs”
… and I’m your host, Patrick Riddle.
I’ve assembled the A-List, the top 13 real estate investing bloggers to compete to see who’s blog is #1 in your eyes …
Below, you’ll get a chance to check out each participating REI blogger. Each has his or her own custom profile that includes a link to their blog, their 3 main social media links, Twitter, Facebook, and Youtube, and a “Tweet About Your Fav Blogger” link.
Sooooo we need you … our readers, our subscribers, our listeners, our watchers … to research each real estate investing blogger below and vote on your favorite, on who you think has the #1 real estate investing blog, on who you think should be crowned “Battle of the REI Blogs 2009” CHAMPION!
Maybe you’re thinking, “Sounds great Patrick … but …
What’s In It for ME?”
Great question … so here are just a few of the things in it for ya …
1) A chance at winning one of the FREE Private Money Blueprint Home Study Systems ($697 VALUE) being given away … the same system that’s generated over $11M in cash from private lenders by its students in only the past six months.
All you have to do to enter is vote on your favorite real estate investing blogger in the comment section (more on that in a minute) …
2) Get social and connect with the “best of the best” real estate investing bloggers.
People are communicating, growing personal relationships, getting to know each other through social media … Twitter, Facebook, YouTube … soooo now is your chance to add the top real estate investing bloggers in the country to your personal social network.
3) Build your foundation of rock solid real estate investing educational resources.
Each blogger participating has his or her own unique style, REI niche, and resources available to help you on your path towards real estate investing riches.
Figure out which blogger/blog appeals to you and your goals and subscribe to ’em.
Now it’s time to learn …
HOW TO PLAY
1) Contest Starts October 26th and Ends October 29th 2009 at midnight EST.
2) You MUST be 18 years or older to participate.
3) Meet the bloggers below … click through to their blog and see what you think, connect with ’em if you want through Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube, Tweet about ’em if that’s your thing … and decide on your favorite.
4) VOTE! All you gotta do is put the name of your favorite blog/blogger in the comment section.
AND, you may want to add the reason why … why it’s your favorite blog, why he or she is your favorite blogger … because the winning REI blogger gets to hand out FREE Private Money Blueprint Systems to 5 of their voters … AND the runner up gets to give one away too.
Sooooo, by telling “why” … you increase your chance of being picked for one of those killer FREE private money training systems.
5) Only vote once for one blog/blogger and use your real name or biz name (we have a special team in place to ensure that violators are disqualified from the contest … only vote once and use a real name so that if you win, you can get your prize)
And that’s it! Pretty simple, right?
Well, I guess that’s it for “how to play” … now it’s time to …

I think Trevor is the best–he doesn’t blow up things to make himself look like a know it all, and when he says he will do something, guess what, it gets done. My vote is for the REI brain. :)

Wow, this one is TOUGH… I’m a big fan of Trevor’s, Patrick’s and Susan’s, and you ALL give such great resources, content and freebies!!
But my vote’s gotta be for Trevor, because my heart goes out to those kids with cancer. Great site, Trevor, and thanks for doing all you do! I hope to meet you if you get up to Portland.

Glenn, thanks for the comments!
Man, I just found out about the darn pop up thing a week or two ago and I think we got it taken off today… so you should be good to go now :-)
For some reason it never showed up on my computer when I would go on my site… so I had no clue it was doing what it was doing.
Thanks!
Happy B day again Pat! Hope you had a drink for me!

Wow, so many excellent bloggers here it makes it difficult to just pick one! To be quite honest, I follow about half these bloggers and thanks to this little competition I discovered the other bloggers who are also VERY impressive!
…However, I’m slightly biased and I have to go with the person I’ve followed closely and who somehow always answers my never-ending calls. A real goal-setter and go-getter!
My vote goes to birthday boy Patrick.
My vote goes to Susan L Lyons. One of the best advisors I have come across the REI arena.
I vote for Julie Broad
Hi, I vote for Susan L. Lyons. Go Susan!!

I vote for Julie Broad.
I vote for Julie Broad
This is a hard one. I follow JP and Trevor and have received a lot of good info from both. But since I have to vote for one….It has to be JP and REItips.com JP puts out loads of good info that has helped a newbie like me so much. JP and his interviews are full of REI Tips golden nuggets. JP also responds to emails and questions faster then any of these paid GURU’s and I do not have to hand him $997. JP you ROCK!!!

Always new and interesting information on his site.

Congrats to Julie – the greatest blogger EVER!! Well, that may be a slight exaggeration but she kicked butt on this and I can’t wait to see how she does next year!!!
And what a great contest Patrick! Thanks for including us and all these great REI bloggers! It’s opened our eyes to all the great information (and more importantly People) out there on the interweb!
I am gonna try to get Julie to learn how to play the piano and sing for next year’s event…although I am not sure if she can keep up with you Patrick!
All the best!

Thank you to everyone for making this such a fantastic experience!! I was so focused on inspiring people to vote for me that I never even placed my vote… for what it’s worth my vote would have gone to Patrick Riddle because thanks to him I have met all of you. Over a year ago I approached him to see if he would be interested in publishing an article I had written. I’d been looking for a like minded website to join forces with – and his was the best I had found in the real estate space. He immediately accepted my offer AND introduced my husband and I to Trevor Mauch.
And now he’s expanded my world to all of the bloggers on this site and so many other wonderful people – and it is such a privilege to know all of you!!
Anyway – thanks again to Patrick. And thank you to all of you for making this such a great competition. I have a feeling that it’s going to be really tough to hold onto our championship title next year. But, I am a determined little Broad so I won’t make it easy for any of you. :)
– Julie
p.s. Susan – I am sorry I didn’t know you were donating money to a cause as well or I would have mentioned that in the video!!! What an awesome cause!!! Very nice.
