About

The Real Estate Business Mentors blog was developed by two “active” real estate investors that have bought and sold over 600 properties to date. This blog is designed to help Real Estate Investors and Real Estate Agents stay on top of the changes in the ever dynamic world of real estate investing. We will talk about everything from the Pre-foreclosure Industry (short sales and loss mitigation), Subject to’s, Wholesaling properties, listing short sale properties as a licensed Real Estate Agent, the opportunities this market provides and much, much more!

There will be weekly uncut, unedited blog entries (video and written) about what is working in today’s investing world and what is not.  You will be encouraged to comment on any of the blog entries and ask questions (we will do our best to stay up to date on answering those questions).  This site will give real estate investors (both seasoned and new) a place to stay plugged in with tips and tricks of what is working in our office on a daily basis.

Bob Lachance

Before joining North Shore Enterprises (NSE) in 2004, Bob Lachance was a 4-year-collegiate-scholarship athlete in ice hockey at Boston University where he won a National Championship in 1995. After leaving BU he enjoyed a successful 8 year career as a professional hockey player.  Upon retirement from hockey, Bob completed several profitable real estate rehab projects for his own benefit.  He then joined NSE as an associate responsible for property acquisitions and loss mitigation/lender negotiations.  Bob brought the same determination and work ethic that lead to great success in his professional sports career and thus generated more acquisitions and short sale acceptance letters in a shorter time frame than any associate before or since.  His outstanding performance led to a promotion to partner in 2005.  Since that time, Bob has taken responsibility for all the day to day operations of NSE.  As partner, he has overseen the acquisition of, the loss mitigation, and the disposition of over four hundred properties.  Bob continues to be directly responsible for identifying good candidates for acquisition and for overseeing bank negotiations, and has been essential to the success and growth of NSE.

In addition to his work with acquisitions and loss mitigation, Bob has also continued his professional education and acquired his real estate license in 2005.  Since then, Bob has achieved the status of “Top Performer”.

Bob is one of the co-founders in two of the most successful online web-based applications (FinerSolution.com and ManageMyShortSale.com). Both boast a user base of over 1000 users and growing. Bob has also become well known as one of the top real estate mentors in the real estate industry.
Known for finding creative ways to make money, Bob is in the trenches every day, plowing through challenges and objections while negotiating with various lenders, and finding solutions to difficult problems. It is this daily experience that brings him his consistent success and provides him the knowledge to share.

Patrick Precourt

Patrick Precourt Started in the preforeclosure business in the late 90’s. He opened North Shore Enterprises, a professional real estate investment company specializing in preforeclosure and short sales, in the beginning of 2002. Since then his team has completed well over 400 short sales and will pass the 500 mark this spring. Pat is quickly getting known across the industry as the quiet guru, the guy who speaks with his actions and documented results, not with long web copy, fancy marketing tricks and copy cat tactics. He tells it the way it is…an unedited opinion of a self made entrepreneur and insanely successful business owner with roots in preforeclosure investment and balls to the wall business development. His beliefs in The Power Of Team and his refusal to empower the misconception that competition is opposition have founded and driven his unarguable and unequaled success in the business.
