Jeff KallerWhile it may seem unlikely to convert EVERY lead you get to cash, you can indeed dramatically increase the number of leads you convert to paying deals by using a combination of previously unknown techniques. On June 9, 2011, we held a very special webcast with Jeff Kaller where he revealed many of these secrets to our audience. These techniques are a real game changer since no one has ever really figured out how to make money on every single person that calls. Read More→

Jeff KallerI just loaded a few videos you will not want to miss. A friend of mine is using foreclosure defense strategies to buy houses at steep discounts. Like REALLY STEEP DISCOUNTS. But he is also taking all his dead leads that the sellers do not want to sell no matter what the reason and turning them into cash. So his mail campaigns cost nothing, he gets free leads and uses the attorney group to buy these properties at an absolute steal. It’s a powerful one two punch that helps homeowners and give you a super competitive edge. Need I say more? After the video you can see Jeff live teaching how to live debt free using these Foreclosure defense strategies. Click here to watch these killer videos.

How to do “Subject-To” Investing
with Mark Durham & Attorney Bob Witcher

Robert WitcherLast month, local real estate expert Don DeRosa introduced our group to “Subject-To” investing. Due to overwhelming demand from our members, this month at our Creative Financing Group meeting on Wednesday, June 8th at 6:30 PM at Champps at 7955 North Point Parkway in Alpharetta, GA (map), subgroup leader and real estate expert Mark Durham and local real estate attorney Robert “Bob” Witcher will discuss in further detail how you can buy houses “subject-to” without qualifying for a loan and with little or no money down. Attorney Witcher will discuss the forms and language you need to use to protect yourself as an investor as well as your seller.

  • If you don’t have good credit or a lot of cash to invest, but want to get in the real estate investing game, you can get started by buying houses without qualifying for a loan or having a lot of cash.
  • If you’re renting and want to own, or if you’re tired of your current home and want to move, you can buy a beautiful new home in an nice neighborhood and possibly pay less than you are paying in rent or on your current mortgage, without going to the bank for financing.
