Atlanta REIA Main Meeting
Dec 2nd at 5PM at the Crowne Plaza Ravinia
How to Create a $10,300 Monthly Positive Cash Flow Without Having to Deal with a Single Tenant!
with Special Guest, David Lindahl
Atlanta REIA Members Can Attend at No Charge.
Guests Can RSVP Online Now for $15 or Pay $20 at the Door.

David LindahlOn December 2nd at the Atlanta REIA Main Meeting, David Lindahl will teach you how to create a $10,300 per month positive cash flow and become a multi-millionaire in five years or less by investing in single family houses and then transitioning into apartment buildings!

With more than 18 years of experience in Real Estate Investing, David Lindahl has rehabbed over 820 houses, and currently controls over 7,400 apartment units. Starting out as a struggling landscaper with no experience in construction, Dave would rehab single-family houses to “flip” for chunks of money, so he could buy apartment buildings. Within the first 14 months, Dave’s apartment buildings created a positive cash flow of more than $10,300 a month for him and his family and within three and one half years Dave became a multi-millionaire.

Dave then learned about the four phases of the Real Estate Market Cycle, what strategies to use in each cycle for maximum profit and the fact that at any given time there are 10 – 20 markets around the United States that are “Emerging.” Dave learned how to find these markets, and he created a system to buy in these markets and became much wealthier, much faster! He has done and does all of this without dealing with a single tenant! Now he is ready to tell you how you can do it too!

Today, Dave has earned millions of dollars renovating houses for resale. And, he controls over 7,400 apartment units with a monthly cash flow equaling what most people make in a year!

Join Dave at Atlanta REIA where he will teach you:

  • How to Recognize Market Cycles and Use Them to Become Wealthy Fast!
  • How To Find Good Quality Management Companies to Manage Your Tenants so You Don’t Have to!
  • The 5 Steps To Creating Wealth Through Real Estate Investing
  • How to Find Motivated Sellers of Apartment Buildings and Get Them to Call You!
  • How to Analyze an Apartment Building in 3 minutes or Less to Determine if It’s a Deal!
  • The 6 Value Plays that You Should Look for in Every Deal—Finding Just One Can Make You a Fortune!
  • How to Explode Your Wealth Using 1031 Tax Free Exchanges!
  • Why There is Far Less Risk Owning Apartment Houses!
  • How to Refinance and Get Chunks of Cash—Tax Free!
  • Many Other Money Making Systems and Strategies that Dave has Successfully Developed!
  • And much, much more including answers to your questions…

David Lindahl BonusesCome join Dave and the rest of us at the Atlanta REIA Meeting on Monday, December 2nd at 5PM at the Crown Plaza Ravinia Hotel in Atlanta located at 4355 Ashford Dunwoody Road in Atlanta, GA and learn how to invest in apartment buildings.

The Goblins Are Coming!
Are You Afraid?!?

Fear MonsterDon’t let them scare you! Now of course we don’t get scared by the Goblins on Halloween, but many times we do let the Goblins scare us the rest of the year… scare us away from doing profitable deals.

After all, many of us get scared away from potential deals because we think they won’t work for us. Or we don’t know how to structure them correctly and get our agreements in writing. Or we don’t know how to negotiate to achieve a favorable outcome. Or we are simply afraid to talk to sellers our of plain old fear of rejection.

If the Goblins of fear, lack of knowledge, or the difficulty of a deal, or some other Fear Monster is lurking in your mind and is stopping you from finding and closing on a deal, we have the solution for you…

The King of Kitchen Table Negotiators, aka The King of Creative Seller Financing, Larry Harbolt, is teaching a Full Day Workshop this Saturday, November 2nd on creative buying and selling and negotiating deals that others don’t see or know how to structure.

Let Larry help give you the knowledge and confidence you need to tame your Fear Monster so you can make your real estate investments truly profitable for you and your family.

And TODAY is the last day to Take Advantage of the 2-for-1 Early Registration Special before prices go up and become a per person price.

Tom DiAgostinoTom DiAgostino grew up the hard way in the Monroe Housing Projects in the South Bronx of New York City. He seized opportunity and started his college career at CUNY and then Pace University, joined the Army ROTC and commissioned as a Second Lieutenant, eventually retiring from the Army. At Pace he did an internship at Reynolds Securities, a financial firm where he achieved a tremendous education in the markets, and has been heavily involved in the trading markets ever since.

His business career started in 1988 as a project manager for Orenstein Construction. It was then he purchased his first batch of Tax Liens through the tax sale process. In 1992, he struck out on his own and formed the company T-GRAM, Inc. an acronym for his bride of 24 years and 4 children, Thomas, Grace, Rick, Ann, & Maegan (he says he is the hyphen). He started as a site builder, then to a developer of small subdivisions, then to a Superior Wall franchise that set over 4,000 homes. Tom has kept current through education and seminars adding new tools to his business practice to stay on top of the ever-changing market place. Tom has been a rehabber, builder, and Tax Sale investor for the last decade. His experiences entail every facet of real estate, and throughout his career he has utilized tax sale properties for rehab projects, wholesales and rentals. Growing wealth by acquiring real estate for pennies on the dollar via Tax Sales is the foundation of Tom’s real estate business in Fortris LLC.
