Haves & Wants Speed MarketingThis was the Haves and Wants Speed Marketing Session that we recorded live at our May 2, 2011 Atlanta REIA Meeting. This is a new 30 minute session at our Atlanta REIA Main Monthly Meeting that starts at 6:00 PM on the 1st Monday of the month and is hosted by Joe Thompson. The purpose of this marketing session is to help facilitate deals by giving our members the opportunity to quickly market things they HAVE and no longer want and to find things they WANT but don’t yet have. Thanks to all those of you who participated. And special thanks to Joe for hosting the session and to Alan McDonald for recording the session and improving the quality of this video each and every month. Read More→

Jeff KallerAt our next Atlanta REIA Main Meeting on June 6th we are excited to feature the original founding father of today’s short sale techniques, Mr. Jeff Kaller. He has promised to share the refined plan he uses to turn over One Billion Dollars in negotiated short sale deals into his collective network. Don’t let the numbers scare you, he plans to lay out a blue print for how you can fill your deal pipeline (he calls it his money funnel) with productive deals that will produce cash. It’s the same techniques that he used to save over one million homeowners from the perils of foreclosure.

The strategies are simple,cost effective, and produce amazing results. Jeff will show you fully automated lead generation campaigns that find hard to locate homeowners who yield big profits. He also uses a virtual team of assistants to mine data and is willing to share scripts, letters and strategies he uses in his brokerage office in St Augustine to drive calls into his office. He was recognized by the local Atlanta media as the country’s most influential person in short sales and you can see an interview done by a local station on the registration page. Read More→

Jeff Kaller

Posted on May 3, 2011 by

Jeff KallerA graduate of Appalachian State University, Jeff Kaller has been self-employed as a real estate investor, promoter and real estate trainer for many years. For 17 years he has successfully taught over 100,000 students his proprietary method of short sales. During his career, he has purchased and sold over 400 single family properties, and he and his affiliates have negotiated in excess of One Billion Dollars in short sale debt.

We had a great May Meeting last night at the W Hotel in Dunwoody. Attendance was high, participation was high and the energy was high! We had a great panel discussion with 3 attorneys (John Maurer, Fred Cross & Doug Shaddix) as well as 1 CPA (Eric Nicoll). They answered many excellent questions from the audience and now serve as a valuable, ongoing source of professional advice for our members and guests.

We also had a really fun “meeting after the meeting” at the Tilted Kilt Perimeter. Attendance was so high, we overwhelmed the wait staff, as we networked late into the night. Many did not leave until they turned the house lights on.

Atlanta REIA is helping make real estate investing fun and profitable once more for both new and seasoned investors. We want to thank all of our volunteers, members, guests and panelists who made it such a great night! We look forward to seeing you all the next Main Meeting and Late Nite Networking or at a subgroup meeting soon! Read More→

The Fuller Center for Housing of Greater Atlanta

Instead of working on Project Lakewood this Saturday, April 30th at 9 AM, Mark Galey and other Fuller Center volunteers will be assisting the tornado victims down in Spalding County. Here is what Mark told us… “I just spoke with the Commission Chairman of Spalding County. They need our help. They need folks with chain saws, muscles and maybe even small skid steers to help a poor area of their county hardest hit. If you are available to spend a few hours or the day in Spalding County on Saturday please let me know as we are working out all the details with government officials and will finalize those by tomorrow.”

They are meeting at 9 AM on School Rd in Sunnyside Community of Griffin, GA just off Hwy 19/41. For more information, please call or text Mark Galey at 404-867-3258.
