Marco KozlowskiDue to the incredible response we’ve received from Marco Kozlowski’s presentation at Tampa REIA last month on how to find discounted U.S-based real estate and buy as many units as you want, using NONE of your own money…

TAMPA REIA is excited to announce that we’ve asked Marco to come back for an encore presentation. This time, it’s a full, 3-hour masterclass on Saturday, June 19th from 9AM to NOON at the Doubletree Tampa Rockypoint Waterfront located at 3050 North Rocky Point Dr. West in Tampa, FL or Online via Zoom Webinar.

Register for the Commercial Master Class Now!

In this Master Class, Marco’s going to show you:

  • How to exclusively use other people’s money to buy as many multis as you want, regardless of credit.
  • Case studies on how this was done (he has hundreds of video testimonials of successful students, and new deals every week)…
  • How to get heavy discounts on multis, starting today…
  • How to pull thousands out at closing on your 1st deal…
  • How to guarantee your results (as long as you follow a step by step process…)
  • How you can do ALL of it part time… never leaving your house… on your laptop (yes, including closing)
  • Ask as many questions as you like so you can start immediately

This is the best system I’ve seen if you want to add a new passive-income source to your life (or get WAY more units if you’re already an investor)…

… That can not only protect you against economic downturns like we’re in now… but allow you to profit from them FAR more than during normal economic times (while feeling good about helping people at the same time.)

His average student is able to retire in about 3 years. With what’s coming, he expects that time to be cut in half.

Obviously we can cover Marco’s system in a LOT more detail with a full 2-hour masterclass, so I highly recommend you block out a couple of hours tonight, turn off distractions, and watch it in full.

*PLEASE NOTE: Tuition price will increase and will be per person after Early Registration Expires. Register now and save! You can choose to attend In Person or Online during checkout.

BTW, if you’re interested in Marco’s system and are wondering how you can get started, he gives you a way to get his help buying your first 3-5 unit property.

It will “net” about $200 per month (per unit), meaning your first asset will generate $600 – $1,000 per month… forever.

Oh, and he’ll show you how to pull out $3,000 at closing (which is more than the cost of the program).

If you believe in the power of real estate to make you wealthy and want more passive-income in your life, this is a no-brainer. Register for Marco’s Master Class Now!

Sat, June 5th Workshop

Creative Deal Structuring Workshop

Creative Deal Structuring
How To Make the Most of the Upcoming Tsunami Of Foreclosures
Learn How to Structure Creative Deals Like a BOSS
All New Full Day Seminar
with Don DeRosa
Sat, June 5th from 9AM-6PM
Doubletree Hotel Roswell
1075 Holcomb Bridge Rd, Roswell, GA
Register Now for the Seminar

Don DeRosaWith housing inventory at an all time low, it has become increasingly more difficult to find deals. Notice I didn’t say GOOD deals, I said deals in general. If you are homeowner, in the market to buy a house, it can be a very frustrating task. Especially when it seems everyone is bidding on the same home and willing to pay ridiculous prices. It can be even worse if you don’t have the cash to compete with buyers that do. However, this is about to change. I am about to change your life and how you look at real estate deals forever.

Fortunes are NOT made when you buy in a SELLERS market. Fortunes are made when you buy in a BUYERS market and then, sell in a Sellers market. With the number of mortgage defaults at the highest level it’s been since 2008 the writing is on the wall. As an investor you need to be prepared. Prepared to take full advantage of the upcoming chaos that is about to happen. But, in order to take advantage of this chaos you must be armed with the proper tools and the exact steps to take before it hits. That is why I have created this brand new seminar on the how to handle this foreclosure tsunami like a BOSS.

While everyone is fighting over the small pool of retail buyers there is an entire segment of homes that will need solutions to their financial problems. These homes do not fit the normal mold of a good retail sale. They may possibly be over leveraged, need repairs and are in severe financial distress, which most retail homeowners won’t want to deal with or even know how, but are ideal for the smart educated creative investors. Time to elevate your game.

At this event you will learn:

  • How to buy real estate without using banks using creative techniques, even if you have no cred or cash
  • How to attract the most motivated sellers to call you
  • How to prescreen them like a Pro, so you don’t waste time on non-motivated sellers
  • What questions are the right ones to ask the Seller and which ones get you nowhere
  • How to evaluate COMPS, determine “After Repair Value” and calculate guaranteed profit
  • How to make sure you NAIL your repair cost in this rapidly rising lumber price market
  • How to formulate 3 different offers on every home you want to buy
  • How to get a wholesale profit of 5k or more, and keep the property for cash flow as well
  • What are the 11 creative BUYING strategies every investor must know, like “Sub To” wrap around mortgages, Sandwich Lease Options, etc…
  • Why someone will be glad to give you the deed to their home, in fact they may even pay you to take it off their hands (Yes this happens)
  • How to create three different pay days on every deal that you do. (Upfront, cash flow and backend)
  • How to match the BUYING strategies with the seven main SELLING strategies to make you recession proof.
  • Why the due on sale clause is not as important as you originally thought
  • And a whole lot more…

Once you learn these time tested strategies and techniques you will be able to take this market by storm and ride this massive wave straight to the bank.

Come join me on Saturday, June 5th from 9am – 6pm

I look forward to seeing you all there. Register Now!

The Meeting Before the Meeting

Wrap Around Mortgages
The Alternative To Buying “Subject To”

with Don DeRosa

Don DeRosaJoin Don DeRosa every month at 5PM SHARP at our Meeting-Before-the-Meeting that we like to call the High Tech Home Buying Creative Deal Structuring Subgroup one hour BEFORE the Atlanta REIA Main Monthly Event.

“With the upcoming tsunami of foreclosures looming on the horizon home owners will be needing alternative to an all cash offer due to the fact that they may be over leveraged. In most cases the recommended method to help them would be buying the property “Subject To” the existing mortgage. That is where the home owner simple just gives you the warranty deed (Ownership) but the note and mortgage (lien) stay in their name.

However, sometimes the homeowner doesn’t feel comfortable with just handing over the deed to their home without any security that you are going to make their payments. That’s where “Wrap Around” mortgages come into play. At this session I will go over all the basics. I will show you:

  • Who should use this technique
  • What is an actual Wrap Around Mortgage
  • Why is it extremely important to have this technique in your toolbox
  • When you should use it
  • How you should use it
  • Answers to your questions and more!

I will cover all of these elements at the “Meeting, before the Meeting.” at 6pm on Monday, May 10th. Come learn another awesome tool to place in your creative real estate toolbox.”

Each month, Don will teach you about different real estate investing purchase and sale strategies to put more money in your pocket as as well as state-of-the-art tools and techniques you’ll use to evaluate deals and figure out how to make them work. You’ll learn to work less and earn more so you can spend more time where you want, when you want and with whom you want.

Each unit = At least $200 / month 💰

25 units = 45,000 / month 💰💰💰
50 units = 410,000 / month 💰💰💰💰

The kicker? Marco and his students buy every single property using NONE of their own cash or cred.

There are massive deals all across the U.S. And Yes, you can buy these deals from the comfort of your own home. Join Marco on the Atlanta REIA Webinar and learn how.

No need to travel — and you definitely shouldn’t buy just because it’s near where you live unless you prefer terrible to mediocre returns.

Join us on the webinar to see how you can:

  • Find deals at 30% off or more
  • Access billions of dollars available from vetted “asset based lenders”
  • Pull out 3k on your first deal at closing plus get cashflow for life

Ever wish you knew what land mines to avoid in real estate to make your success faster and easier? Well guess what? I’m here to help you with that.

Come join me so we can put your investment business in overdrive. I look forward to seeing you on the webinar.”

Paul RossanoAt this month’s Atlanta REIA Online Webinar on Monday, March 8th from 6PM – 9PM, Paul Rossano will be our special guest speaker where he will teach you “How to Make The Financial System Build Your Wealth For You On Auto-Pilot Without Investing”.

That’s a BOLD promise! Anyone who is familiar with George Antone and his proven advanced strategies know they are in for a treat because George always fulfills on his bold promises!

George, a 3-time best-selling author and thought leader in the finance and investing space, has blown the lid off a new paradigm no one is teaching; or even talking about, until now!

Imagine low-risk and low-stress strategies that are implemented one time and placed on autopilot to work FOR you starting ASAP – all in 6 hours or less per month!

In fact, keep reading for a $100k+ strategy that will be revealed in this presentation!

No, this is not a “get rich quick” strategy, but a fascinating way to tweak finance to make it work for you in amazing ways!

The traditional methods of building wealth can be grouped into 3 main categories: Investing, Trading and Saving. These traditional methods work; however, they require a lifetime commitment of learning and implementation.

George has been working on this new paradigm, a 4th method, called “Hacking Finance” – that promises the ability to LEARN and IMPLEMENT each financial strategy within a total of 6 hours or less, and then place it on autopilot to keep working for you!

…and you are about to walk away with one of these $100k+ “shortcuts” just from this presentation! This is NOT an overnight $100k+ strategy, but something you implement one time, and it builds over a number of years into $100k or more on autopilot.

What if you are already investing or lending? Quite simply, these methods will increase your existing returns tremendously! Come discover from George’s #1 trainer how to boost your yields by combining this system with your existing investments!

That’s exactly why we’re excited to have Paul Rossano, George’s top trainer, doing an exclusive training for us month; sharing this unique and creative new way to approach finance and investing.

Paul will be sharing tons of info about this new paradigm, and he’ll even give you details for ONE of those strategies that banks use (called “floats”), that you can use to skyrocket your wealth.

Paul will demonstrate what you need to do the very next morning at your local bank to increase your wealth by $100k+ over a number of years on autopilot without the stress of risky investments… and this is just ONE of MANY strategies!

Some people work hard. Others work smart. This is working smart!

If you want your path to economic freedom made easier, then this is something you cannot afford to miss out on! It just might be what you are looking for!

With a few financial tweaks and this different approach, you’ll find you have more time and money to work with than you thought.

Leap forward financially with less risk, less stress, and more time to enjoy life!

Register for this Atlanta REIA Training Webinar below and experience what George’s inner circle is using to build their wealth and peace of mind, in a relatively short period of time.

This is truly powerful stuff to know and we’re excited it’s being shared with us!

These are just a few of the gems you will learn from Carson, so Register to Attend Now and join us Online on Monday, March 8th from 6 to 9PM. See you there!

The Titanic Effect in Today’s Housing Market
with Don DeRosa

Don DeRosaJoin Don DeRosa every month at 6PM SHARP at our Meeting-Before-the-Meeting that we like to call the High Tech Home Buying Creative Deal Structuring Subgroup  that meets one hour BEFORE the Atlanta REIA Main Monthly Event.

Here is a message from Don regarding of this month’s Meeting Before the Meeting topic…

“Every day I am asked where I think the economy is headed and my answer is always the same. We are headed into a transitional market. By transitional I mean a market that is slowly transitioning from a full blown sellers’ market to more of a buyers’ market. The million-dollar question is WHEN.

By all accounts the housing market on the surface is showing no signs of slowing down BUT what you may not see is unemployment is still very high, mortgage forbearances are still climbing, and evictions are still being delayed.

Also, COVID-19 is still very much a factor in supply and demand causing things like building supplies to skyrocket from just a year ago. This is all creating an iceberg effect. Little to no issues on the surface but giant issues beneath surface.

When you factor all of this together, in my opinion, we are creating the perfect storm. Like the Titanic the passengers are laughing and having a grand ole time, but below deck the ship is taking on water.

Homeowners are masking the issues with the governments so called HELP by delaying the inevitable. So, when this happens what MUST investors be doing to prepare for the inevitable. That question is also a SIMPLE answer. Learn to buy houses using owner finance techniques such as “Subject to”, “Wrap Around Mortgages” and several other no money down techniques.

At this meeting I will show you why you absolutely MUST learn how to buy using these techniques.

You will learn:

  • Who it is going to effect
  • What you should be doing to prepare for this inevitability
  • When you need to start preparing
  • And How you need to do it

You will learn how using these techniques will save homeowners and, in the process, you won’t needs banks or credit to buy these houses when the ship starts to sink. The last thing you want to be is NOT prepared. Take action today so you can be a life raft to many who will soon need you.

Join us at the Meeting-Before-the-Meeting each month where Don will teach you about different real estate investing purchase and sale strategies to put more money in your pocket as well as state-of-the-art tools and techniques you’ll use to evaluate deals and figure out how to make them work. You’ll learn to work less and earn more so you can spend more time where you want, when you want and with whom you want.

Onsite PropertyPlease join us on Tuesday, January 5th at NOON for the Atlanta REIA Onsite Renovation Group (ORG) to learn all about finding, funding, fixing and flipping houses (or holding) for big profits right here in the metro Atlanta area.

Stephanie LangfordThis month’s Onsite Renovation Group meeting, the first of the New Year, will be held at a renovation being managed by Gregory Davis and Funded by Stephanie Langford of DFW Hard Money located at 2870 Ridgemore Rd NW, Atlanta, GA.

Gregory says “This property was built in 1954 as a 4/2 with 1464 sqft. It had been a rental for a long time and had not been updated in at least 30 years. Due to the condition of the property, it needed a full gut, all new systems, and a new roof.

The neighborhood was what drew us to the property. The schools are some of the best in Atlanta and home prices are rising rapidly. The neighborhood is also very active and they have their own HOA with a security officer. A lot of the homes in the neighborhood have been updated and they’re starting to build new construction in the neighborhood. Most of the homes in there don’t last longer than a week on the market even with higher price points.

We decided that if we wanted to get the ARV that we wanted, we needed to add on a larger master bedroom, master bath & closet as well as do a full gut rehab. After completion we’ll be at a 4/3 2164 sqft with 3 full bathrooms. We added a back porch and a front porch and wrought iron doors on the front exterior to help it stand out. We’re currently at about a month away from completion with a lot of minor details still to be taken care of. Come join us at Onsite to see our progress!”

If you are interested in learning about how to fix and flip or how to fix and flip even better, come check out the Onsite Renovation Group and learn from other active rehabbers who are willing to open their doors and share their insights and experiences with you.

with Carson Olinger

With the economy shifting, we as investors are poised to be standing on the precipice of a Real Estate Boom in our favor. While some may expect a recession, market indicators suggest real estate will continue to do well, especially with creative strategies. Subject-To Acquisition is a key strategy that should be a part of any investors approach.

Carson OlingerAt this month’s Atlanta REIA Online Webinar on Monday, December 14th from 6PM – 9PM, Carson Olinger will be our special guest speaker where he will discuss “The Upcoming Real Estate Boom and How to Target, Find & Structure a Deal”.

In his presentation, Carson will discuss the emerging market economy and how it will affect the Real Estate market, specifically in the Southeastern United States and how to Target, Find and Structure Deals “Subject To”.

The overview will discuss the concept and general approach to lock up deals legally and effectively, to not only protect yourself, but to protect the seller as well as the beginner investor. And then we will discuss in more detail, the mechanics of Subject-To acquisition and the related advantages to back end disposition strategies that Subject-To provides.

In his presentation, Carson will specially discuss market indicators in Georgia and the Southeast and how they align with this strategy. He will discuss what to look for in identifying these opportunities, how to market to these opportunities and then ultimately, how to take them down effectively, and with confidence. Learn how to structure a Subject To deal, and why they can be more lucrative than cash closing options and definitely better than hard money strategies.

These are just a few of the gems you will learn from Carson, so Register to Attend Now and join us Online on Monday, December 14th from 6 to 9PM to learn how to take down a Subject-To Deal! We hope to see you there!

How to Prepare for the Tsunami of Foreclosures Coming in 2021!
with Don DeRosa

Don DeRosaJoin Don DeRosa every month at 6PM SHARP at our Meeting-Before-the-Meeting that we like to call the High Tech Home Buying Creative Deal Structuring Subgroup  that meets one hour BEFORE the Atlanta REIA Main Monthly Event.

In this month’s Meeting Before the Meeting, Don is going to talk about the upcoming wave of foreclosures in 2021 due to covid.

Don says “With the CARES act coming to an end and no real stimulus package being presented. Homeowners will be faced with the very real possibility that their home may get foreclosed on in 2021. We as investors need to be prepared to offer solutions to those homeowners. In fact, the more solutions you, as the investor, can provide the greater chance you have to help the homeowner and/or buy their house. At this meeting before the meeting I will discuss what you need to have in your tool box in order to solve these very real problems.

I will discuss:

  • Why wholesaling is dying and how to adjust
  • What techniques will be most important to master in 2021
  • What tools are most effective in today’s investment works
  • What motivated customers you should be paying attention to

“As 2020’s doors come to a close, many more doors will be opening In 2021. Make sure you are ready to enter that room with confidence by being prepared. Come join me to make sure you are headed in the right direction.

Join us at the Meeting-Before-the-Meeting each month where Don will teach you about different real estate investing purchase and sale strategies to put more money in your pocket as well as state-of-the-art tools and techniques you’ll use to evaluate deals and figure out how to make them work. You’ll learn to work less and earn more so you can spend more time where you want, when you want and with whom you want.

Onsite PropertyPlease join us on Tuesday, December 15th at NOON for the Atlanta REIA Onsite Renovation Group (ORG) to learn all about finding, funding, fixing and flipping houses (or holding) for big profits right here in the metro Atlanta area.

Stephen & Lena JonesThis month’s Onsite Renovation Group meeting will be held at Stephen & Lena Jones’s newly newly renovated home located at 2320 Shasta Way NE, Atlanta, GA. Here is a little bit of information about the project that Stephen sent us…

Onsite Property“2320 Shasta Way is located in a quiet neighborhood in a section of unincorporated Dekalb running parallel to I-85 and Briarcliff Road near Lakeside High School. Like many houses in the neighborhood, the property is a ranch-style, four-sided brick home on a full basement, with a large, flat lot. The owners of the house kept the houses up very well, but had never updated it in any meaningful way, and sold it because they lived too far away to manage it as a rental. In June we purchased the house for $285,000 and it had three bedrooms, two baths plus a full bath in the basement.

We recognized from day one that the house was going to be very challenging due to the basement stairway being located between the den, living room and kitchen; and furthermore, the house footprint was very small, at around 1600 square feet. Lena and I realized that we would have to choose between having three bedrooms on the main level or having a large master suite. We also had to decide whether it was worth the money moving the stairway. To achieve an ARV over $550k we would need to make sure the house had four bedrooms, three baths.

Lena and I decided to keep the stairway where it was, but continue to open up the layout by spanning the main structural wall over the stairway and adjusting the kitchen to work around the obstruction. Knowing that a large portion of the buyer pool in the area consists of empty-nesters, and further that the house was a walk-in ranch, we decided to sacrifice a bedroom upstairs in order to deliver a large master bathroom and walk-in-closet. We framed in two bedrooms in the basement and replaced all systems and mechanicals in addition to 90% of the drywall in the house. Lastly, the 28-foot long carport was easy to convert into a garage with enough space left over for a large storage closet and mudroom. The house is currently under contract for $632,000 though we built the deal around a planned ARV of $550,000. The renovation, which was self-managed, cost $145,000.”

It’s been a full year this month since we saw one of Stephen & Lena’s rehabs, so please RSVP NOW and come join at Onsite for this rare opportunity to see one of their Gorgeous Rehabs!
