Dear Fellow Real Estate Investor,

Stop ForeclosureDo you know a homeowner who can answer yes to any of these questions:

  • You are at risk of losing your home and other properties
  • You are running out of money to pay your loans
  • Adjustable interest payments increasing soon
  • Have sellers calling you facing foreclosure
  • Short sales too long and frustrating, not big enough discounts
  • Loan Mods not working, still owe too much
  • In over your head and want an easy way of the mess
  • Facing foreclosure? Want a new way to stop it that actually works?

Look, its not your fault. This economy is the result of a deliberately orchestrated financial time bomb. And you are left holding the bag while the elite “banksters” in their corporate jets and yachts are laughing… well… all the way to the bank.

But there is a secret “Achilles heel” to the bankers. It gets them pale as a ghost. Ever heard of Regulation Z? Well, its just one of the amazing laws that let you beat the banks at their own game.

And we on Tuesday July 24, 2012 at 7:00 PM ET, on a special webcast, we will reveal a “secret source” system that at no upfront cost to you, will scan your mortgage documents for violations that turn the tables on the banks: Read More→

How to Use a Financial Calculator & More!
with “Cash Flow” Tom Boyer

HP 10BII Financial CalculatorIt’s no secret that there’s no better time in history to buy real estate than right now.  Deals are abundant and many sellers are now open to owner financing.  And there is certainly no shortage of buyers who want to take advantage of lease purchase and owner finance deals in today’s market conditions.  All this sounds very exciting and great opportunity exists for those who know how to work the numbers and structure deals to work in their favor.  Are you among the enterprising elite who know how to do this to create win-win situations for all parties involved?

Maybe you’ve wondered how the bank figures out the monthly payment on your mortgages or other loans.  Are you just getting started in the real estate game, finding words like amortization and PITI have you a little intimidated and confused?  Maybe you’re just now getting back into real estate investing, so some time has passed since you’ve run numbers with your financial calculator.  A good overview and quick refresher course would be great to hone your skills as you get back in the game.

Tom BoyerJoin us at the Atlanta REIA West Monthly Meeting on Monday, July 23rd at 6:30 PM at the Cherokee Cattle Company in Marietta, GA as we bring “Cash Flow” Tom Boyer for an evening of enlightening education and fun as you learn.  Cash Flow Tom will be sharing in very simple language and easy to follow steps how to use a financial calculator to figure out the numbers you need to know to be successful in this business. 

He’ll run through scenarios and examples of deals and show you how to calculate and run the numbers on them.   He’ll take the time to explain the most common financial buzzwords and what they mean for us as investors.  He’ll also answer questions you have on these and related topics.  You’ll leave this evening feeling confident and equipped to go out and get your piece of this amazing real estate pie!  This is surely one evening you won’t want to miss—see you there!

*Attendees are strongly encouraged to bring their financial calculators and pen and paper in order to get the most out of this evening’s presentation.  We also invite attendees to bring a note to analyze (NOT a property), so you can see exactly what goes in to figuring the numbers on that note.

Heat of the Summer Admission Special — Members, bring up to 2 guests for FREE! Non-members just $5, and you can bring a guest for FREE! As always, admission is FREE with your Atlanta REIA Membership. See you Monday evening! Read More→

Stefan KasianPOSTPONED: Will Reschedule ASAP – On Tuesday, July 24th at 7PM we have an exciting webinar for you that will spill the beans on a done-for-you killer tactic to turn the tables on any bank and convert a mortgage mess into a pile of cash.

Hi, my name is Stefan Kasian and I am an ex-Wall Street insider – turned real estate investor with nearly 2 decades of real-world in-the-trenches real estate and deal making experience that I will share with you on how you can put the latest dirt on the banking scandals that keep hitting the news daily—to work for you.

Its starting to catch on: many homeowners and investors around the country are fighting back at the banks for their abuses. Maybe the mortgage broker or bank screwed you, and your interest rate isn’t what they promised.

Maybe the bank promised you a loan mod but not you are facing foreclosure. Or maybe you are still current but the market moved against you or someone you know and now you are saddled with debt but you want to do the right thing.

Register Now!

In this rare once-only webinar on Tuesday, July 24th at 7PM, I will have a very special friend who will teach you a revolutionary secret that is silently changing the real estate world forever.

  • This process works on any types of properties, residential or commercial, current or past due.
  • A simple “litmus-test” to see if your property qualifies based on common banking violations. Hint: it’s not the violations you think—often these are behind the scenes but we show you how to find out anyway.
  • This killer strategies Can work on investment properties or residences, or if you are an investor, it can work on your seller’s property too.
  • Why most “forensic loan audits” are a waste of your money unless you have this “missing step”.
  • Stop foreclosure for 36+ months and counting…and keep your home…it’s done for you—real live testimonial proves how its done.
  • Imagine the boost in your cash flow when you settle your mortgages for pennies, at a fraction of interest rate you are paying. No loan mods, no refis, no credit checks.
  • How folks just like you went from a mortgage mess of a property to a bona fide “FREE AND CLEAR” house: the hype, the risks, and true facts.

And this is not risky, pie-in-the-sky stuff. This is a solid lawful process done every day behind the scenes, special deals being made with banks you won’t hear on the news. It’s just starting to hit the investor world—be among the privileged few who will have the know how to turn deals other investors snub into amazing cash cows.

 And best of all, there is no upfront charge to get started.

The Chaos of Foreclosure Morning

Posted on July 3, 2012 by

Bartow County CourthouseMost mornings I’m at my desk and working by 4:30 a.m. This is especially true on the first Tuesday of each month – this is the day Georgia’s foreclosure properties are auctioned off.

If you’ve seen Kim and me at the auction in Bartow County, we usually look calm, cool and collected…everything under control.  Just wish you could see us a few hours before the auction starts – the picture is VERY different!

Foreclosure morning is chaos around here.  Papers are flying around, computer keyboards click furiously, our foreclosure book is flipped through continuously, and the phone rings incessantly!  It truly is something to behold. 

As an example, let’s look at what happened the morning of last month’s foreclosure auction.  Read More→
