As 2018 starts to wind down and come to an end, many of us are looking back on 2018, reflecting on our successes and mistakes and getting refocused and re-energized about 2019. Did we achieve everything we wanted to this year? If not, why not? Will 2019 be better?

If you have taken the time to look back on 2018 compared to where the real estate market is today, you’ve probably started to notice some changes. Are we still in a sellers market? Are some some areas and price ranges hotter than others? Are days on market going up or down? Do you know what’s going on and where the market is headed?

If you don’t know the answers to these questions, don’t sweat about it. Instead, join us at the Atlanta REIA Main Meeting on Monday, December 10th from 5PM-9PM at 3125 Presidential Pkwy, Atlanta, GA with Don DeRosa, Dustin Griffin and a Panel of Local Real Estate Experts.

Aaron Cotteral RE Agent	Lorraine Beato RE Agent & Investor	Kenneth Igwe Hard Money Lender

Our panel will consist of Aaron Cotteral, an excellent real estate agent who likes to hustle for his clients. Lorraine Beato, who is half real estate agent and half real estate investor. and Kenneth Igwe who is a hard money lender. These guys know their market inside and out and are going to share their opinions with current and future real estate market based on their stats and experience.

Part 1: Together, during the first part of the meeting, we are going to talk about the current real estate market, where we’ve been, where we are now and likely where we’re headed in the New Year.

Part 2: During the second part of the meeting, Don DeRosa and Dustin Griffin are going to talk about where YOU have been this year, where you are now and your plans and goals for the future based on the changing real estate market conditions. We want to empower you and help you reach and exceed all your financial goals in 2019!

So if you want to talk about where the real estate market is going in 2019 and more importantly, where YOU are going, Take Action, RSVP Now and Come Join Us! We look forward to seeing you at the meeting!

*Please Note: Meeting agenda is subject to change.

Join Don DeRosa this month at the High Tech Home Buying Creative Deal Structuring Subgroup (AKA the “Meeting Before the Meeting”) as he discusses how to multiple offers to every seller you talk to. Don ies going to show you ow to take any potential deal and make up to 3 offers on every house

Making multiple offers increases your chances of getting a contract ten fold. He will show you ow to make an all cash offer and several owner financed offers on every deal will allow you to offer the seller more money than simply offering one, low, all cash offer.

If you’ve got deals you’re working on, bring them and Don will help you figure out a few offers so you can make some money!

Don DeRosa is a part time real estate trainer and mentor and full-time real estate investor who actively buys, sells, hold, fixes and flips properties for huge profits now and long term cash flow later.
