What’s Happening at Atlanta REIA – June 1, 2026
Posted on June 1, 2026 byAtlanta’s HOTTEST LIVE, In Person
& Online REIA Club! See For Yourself…
In Today’s Atlanta REIA Update:
- TODAY, TUE, JUNE 2ND at NOON: Onsite Renovation Group at Finished Project in Atlanta, GA
- WED at 7PM: Property Protege Group Coaching in Duluth

Tues, June 2nd at NOON
299 Flowers Pl NW, Atlanta, GA
Project by Better Built Blocks
Tuesday, June 2nd @ NOON: The Onsite Renovation Group with Don DeRosa and Chrissy Griffin will be meeting at a newly completed build located at 299 Flowers Pl NW, Atlanta, GA 30314. This property is now finished and listed!
“299 Flowers Place stands as a landmark moment for B3 — Better Built Blocks — our first development in Atlanta’s historic Washington Park neighborhood. B3 is a community-first real estate enterprise operating at the intersection of development, transactions, and technology, built on a single thesis: overlooked neighborhoods are not liabilities. We show up where capital has turned away, building homes and futures that belong to the people already rooted there. What sets B3 apart is our deliberate balance of for-profit development and nonprofit advocacy — growing neighborhoods without displacing the people who made them worth investing in.
It is only fitting that our debut in Washington Park be grounded in the spirit of Herman Perry, the visionary Black entrepreneur who built an empire in Atlanta during the early 20th century. Perry’s Citizens Trust Bank, Standard Life Insurance Company, and countless real estate holdings helped shape the economic backbone of Black Atlanta at a time when systemic barriers made such achievements extraordinary. Washington Park itself was among the neighborhoods his vision helped cultivate, providing Black Atlantans with homeownership opportunities and a place to build generational wealth. With 299 Flowers Place, B3 carries that torch forward — honoring Perry’s legacy by continuing the work of building, owning, and investing in Black communities from the inside out.
Central to our approach is a deliberate strategy to develop within the Atlanta Beltline Overlay district. This isn’t accidental — by building within the overlay, any subsequent property tax increases triggered by rising values are absorbed by the Atlanta Beltline Partnership, not passed down to longtime residents. It’s a structural solution to one of gentrification’s most insidious side effects: neighbors being taxed out of the communities they built. On the nonprofit side, B3 Partnership, Inc. fights the battle on a different front — launching community-driven platforms like Southwest Living ATL to dismantle the negative stigmas that have long suppressed investment and pride in Southwest Atlanta’s 83 neighborhoods. Together, these two arms of B3 work in concert: one building the blocks, the other building the narrative.
Beyond its rich history, Washington Park offers residents an unmatched collection of amenities that few neighborhoods in Atlanta can rival. The Atlanta Beltline runs through the community, connecting residents to the broader city on foot or by bike. Washington Park itself anchors the neighborhood with a pool, tennis courts, a football field, and a gym — all within walking distance. A MARTA station provides seamless access to downtown, which sits just minutes away, giving the area a vibrant, connected urban feel. And with Mercedes-Benz Stadium just around the corner, the energy of major events, concerts, and championship moments is practically at the doorstep. For B3, 299 Flowers Place isn’t just our first development here — it’s proof that Washington Park is one of Atlanta’s most compelling places to live, invest, and grow.”

Tues, May 19th at NOON
1633 Carter Rd, Decatur, GA
Renovation by Visions Group LLC
Funded by Chip Cagle of Longhorn Investments
Tuesday, May 19th @ NOON: The Onsite Renovation Group with Don DeRosa and Chrissy Griffin will be meeting at a newly completed rehab located at 1633 Carter Rd, Decatur, GA 30032. This property is now finished and under contract!
This beautifully transformed home at 1633 Carter Rd has been fully renovated by Natasha Turner of Visions Group LLC, with funding provided by Chip Cagle of Longhorn Investments. Originally a 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom home offering approximately 1,400 square feet on a generous 0.37-acre lot, the property has been thoughtfully redesigned to maximize space, flow, and functionality.
The original layout featured a closed-off floor plan where only the living and dining areas were visible upon entry. The former carport had been converted into an additional room, and while the home featured original hardwood floors throughout most of the house, the kitchen flooring was inconsistent with the rest of the home.
Today, the property has been completely reimagined into a spacious 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom home. The former carport conversion has been transformed into a true owner’s suite, complete with a newly added private bathroom. The kitchen has been opened up to create a seamless view into the living room, enhancing the home’s flow and functionality. A stylish island has been added, making the space ideal for entertaining and everyday living.
Design upgrades include:
- New hardwood flooring installed for consistency throughout the home (with the exception of the primary bedroom)
- Hardwood floors stained a rich medium brown for a warm, modern finish
- New carpet installed in the primary bedroom for added comfort
- Accent walls for contemporary character and design appeal
- All new windows
- New interior and exterior doors
- Brand new HVAC system
- Newly created dedicated laundry room
Both bathrooms have been fully upgraded with luxurious finishes, delivering a modern and elevated aesthetic throughout.
This renovation blends thoughtful design, structural improvements, and high-quality finishes to deliver a move-in-ready home that meets today’s market expectations while maximizing value on a spacious Decatur lot.

Atlanta REIA Members Can Attend on Zoom Webinar
This event was not supposed to happen quite like this. We originally planned a full training on how to fix and flip and rehabs. Then something changed…
After a short session on artificial intelligence at the March Tampa REIA Meeting, people kept coming up and asking the same question… “Can you teach more of this?”
So we made a decision. We shifted the entire event.
The Saturday Workshop is now a full day, in-person, hands-on training focused on how AI is changing real estate investing right now!
PLEASE NOTE: Even though this event is being held live in Tampa, FL, Don will be broadcasting it live for our Atlanta REIA Members & Guests who wish to Register to Attend on Zoom Webinar.
A Quick Video Message from Don DeRosa
What You Are About to See
There is a major shift happening in this business.
Some investors are starting to move faster than ever.
They are analyzing more deals.
They are making better offers.
They are getting to sellers before everyone else.
And most investors have no idea how.
This is not something coming in the future.
This is happening RIGHT NOW.
What This Training Will Show You
During this full day session, you will see a completely different way to run a real estate investing business.
You will learn how to:
- generate consistent seller opportunities
- approach conversations with confidence before you ever pick up the phone
- evaluate deals quickly and accurately
- structure offers based on real numbers
- move deals to buyers faster
And most importantly
How to turn your business into a system instead of a series of tasks.
Why This Matters
Most investors are still doing everything manually.
They write their own marketing
they analyze one deal at a time
they spend hours researching properties
The investors who understand how to operate differently are pulling ahead.
They are making faster decisions.
They are seeing more opportunities.
They are closing more deals.
Who This Is For
This training is for:
- new investors who want a clear path
- active investors who want to move faster
- investors who feel stuck doing everything themselves
- anyone serious about building a more efficient business
What You Walk Away With
You will leave with:
- a clear process you can follow

A Message for Tampa REIA Members from Dustin…
Let me be straight with you: AI is moving FAST!
A lot of people think they have a few years to figure out how to use AI.
I’m not sure if you even have 3 months since it is moving and evolving so quickly.
This isn’t hype… It’s the reality of the day and age we now live in.
We’ve never seen anything grow and move this quickly.
And if you don’t know which AI tools actually work for your real estate investing career or business right now, it’s going to cost you.
There’s a huge flood of tools out there. Most are a waste of time and money.
You need to know what works and you need to know NOW!
That’s why Tampa REIA is hosting a FULL DAY AI Blueprint Workshop on April 18th in Tampa, FL from 9AM to 5PM. Atlanta REIA Members & Guests can attend on Zoom Webinar.
This event is being taught by Don DeRosa, a 25+ year real estate investor and coach who is not only using these AI tools in his own business, but is also sharing these secrets with his inner circle of coaching students.
He’s pulling back the curtain and showing you exactly what’s working TODAY — not theory, not hype, but real tools producing real results.
Now is your chance to learn them too!
No overwhelming complexity.
Just a step-by-step blueprint you can plug directly into your business the moment you leave the room.
You’ll have a clear path and plan for you to implement AI into your real estate investing career, your business and your life.
Imagine analyzing a deal in 30 seconds instead of 30 minutes or generating a full seller script before you ever pick up the phone.
Imagine eliminating hours of repetitive tasks, automating follow-ups, and making smarter offers with less effort.
After attending this workshop, you can immediately start using AI to find more deals, make better offers, eliminate busy work and so much more!
Registration is open. RSVP NOW and join us! This will be a learning experience you won’t forget!
If you wait, you’ll be learning from the investors who attended this workshop.
Don’t get left behind — secure your seat now and stay ahead of the curve.
RSVP Now and I hope to see you there!

- evaluate deals quickly and accurately
- structure offers based on real numbers
- move deals to buyers faster
And most importantly
How to turn your business into a system instead of a series of tasks.
Why This Matters
Most investors are still doing everything manually.
They write their own marketing
they analyze one deal at a time
they spend hours researching properties
The investors who understand how to operate differently are pulling ahead.
They are making faster decisions.
They are seeing more opportunities.
They are closing more deals.
Who This Is For
This training is for:
- new investors who want a clear path
- active investors who want to move faster
- investors who feel stuck doing everything themselves
- anyone serious about building a more efficient business
What You Walk Away With
You will leave with:
- a clear process you can follow
- real examples you can apply immediately
- a new way to approach deal flow and decision making
- a better understanding of how to operate at a higher level

Monday, March 16th @ 11:30AM (LIVE in Dunwoody): The Atlanta Landlord Luncheon meets at HOBNOB Neighborhood Tavern located at 1221 Ashford Crossing, Atlanta, GA.
The Atlanta Landlord Luncheon is hosted by Chip Cagle of Longhorn Investments and Chris Littleton of PMI Atlanta and meets on the 3rd Monday of each month for lunch at 11:30AM.
Loans for Real Estate Investing – A Roundtable Discussion
This month our moderator is Chip Cagle of Longhorn Investments. There won’t be a formal presentation, because we’re going to talk about loans and financing around the table while we eat lunch.
We’ll discuss how leverage can be used to super charge your real estate investments. Do you ever run out of funds to buy more properties? What is the opportunity cost of missing out on deals when this happens? What is the return on investment (ROI) when you use cash, versus when you use leverage?
Come Network with the Pros and enjoy a good lunch at HobNob Tavern near Perimeter Mall. There is no cost for this event, except what you order at the restaurant.
We invite all investors and landlords to come share their questions with the group while we network over lunch at the Hobnob Tavern.
Hosted by Don DeRosa with Lender Panel
After a long hiatus, The Beginning Investors Group (BIG) Meeting is BACK at Hudson Grille, 6317 Roswell Rd in Sandy Springs, GA.
Beginning Investors, before you buy your first deal or your next deal, you need to know how you’re going to fund it.
Join us for a LIVE Lender Panel with some of the most active real estate, investor friendly lenders in the market:
Barbara Martey with Mortgage Express Solutions
Chip Cagle with Longhorn Investments
Joe Castaneda with Duke Allen Capital
You Will Learn:
- How investors are getting deals funded in 2026
- Hard money vs. private money vs. creative financing
- What lenders actually look for before approving a deal
- Mistakes that get investors denied
- How beginners can get funding for their first deal
Live Q&A – Ask the lenders anything
Location: Hudson Grille, 6317 Roswell Rd in Sandy Springs
Date: March 16, 2026
Time: 6:30 PM (order food at before start)
Tickets: Non-Members RSVP Now!
If you want to buy investment property, this is the room you need to be in. RSVP Now. Seats are limited.
Atlanta REIA Members can attend the meeting at no charge and not-yet-members can RSVP Online for $15 or pay $20 at the door.
The Beginning Investors Group (BIG) is an educational and networking group for new investors who are just getting started in real estate investing as well as “new again” real estate investors who’ve taken a few years off and are looking to get back in the game.
BIG is hosted by Don DeRosa who will be bringing in local and national real estate experts to teach new investors how to survive and thrive in our ever changing economy and real estate market. The entire purpose of the group is to help new investors get their first deal and help new again investors get their next deal.
This is a “dinner” group and we kindly request that you buy dinner and/or drinks since the Hudson Grille allows us to meet there. There will be lots of learning and lots of networking. Bring your deals and your haves, wants and needs to the meeting for discussion.
As always, Atlanta REIA Members can attend the meeting at no charge and not-yet-members can RSVP Online for $15 or pay $20 at the door.
Tues, March 17th at NOON
1664 Temple Ave, College Park, GA
Current Phase: Permitting
With Don DeRosa & Chrissy Griffin
Tuesday, March 17th @ NOON: The Onsite Renovation Group with Don DeRosa and Chrissy Griffin will be meeting at 1664 Temple Ave, College Park, GA 30337.
1664 Temple Avenue, better known as “Temple Grove,” is a value-add renovation and vertical addition in Historic
College Park, GA, converting a 1,766 SF single-story ranch into a 3,131 SF two-story luxury long-term rental.
The original foundation and first-floor framing are being retained. The completed project will deliver five
bedrooms and five-and-a-half baths. The rear lot has been identified as a strong ADU candidate and a detached
unit is likely to follow in a subsequent phase.
This is the first collaboration between Gina and her mother Easter. Gina has completed multiple residential
construction projects across metro Atlanta spanning group homes, inner-city revitalization, and Buckhead new
construction. Easter brings fifteen years as a property insurance adjusting manager, five years managing an
85-unit condo portfolio in Memphis, and real estate licensure in both California and Tennessee. Easter recently
completed her battle with breast cancer — and this project is how they are choosing to move forward together.
Their shared goal is 100 doors in five years — single family and small multifamily — as a joint legacy portfolio
for Gina’s two sons.
College Park is within their core buy box for its ability to support forced appreciation through value-add
renovation and strong short-, mid-, and long-term rental demand. Key demand drivers include Hartsfield-Jackson,
Delta Airlines headquarters, the Porsche Experience Center, Tyler Perry Studios, and Woodward Academy two to
three blocks away. The future adjacent $1.5 billion Six West mixed-use development adds long-term appreciation
upside.
The original plan called for a craftsman facade. A setback line discovery during permitting required a full
exterior redesign. Rather than default to a market-safe alternative, they chose French Country Modern — a finish
level and architectural language not currently represented in the neighborhood. The interior specification
includes tadelakt lime plaster walls, microcement floors, unlacquered brass fixtures, and dramatic veined stone
vanity tops. Fifty percent of materials were sourced directly from Fushun, China, with in-person QC conducted
before the first shipment was loaded. Three deliveries are scheduled with the first material shipment arriving
in thirty days.
This asset is being built to hold. Current Phase: Permitting
If you want to learn about fixing and flipping houses for huge profits, mark your calendar and join us at the Onsite Renovation Group!
Atlanta REIA wants to thank New Western and Longhorn Investment for sponsoring the Onsite Renovation Group.

Learn How You Can Buy Houses Without Banks, Cred Checks or Getting New Loans
Keller Williams, 1960 Satellite Blvd,
Suite 1500, Duluth, GA
Interest rates stay high. Buyers fail to qualify. Deals fall apart at the closing table. Meanwhile, a small group of investors keeps closing, deal after deal, by stepping into the seller’s loan instead of applying for a new one.
This is not theory. This is how properties change hands every week using "Subject To". The seller signs the deed. The existing loan stays in place. You control the property. When you know how to structure the conversation and the paperwork, you open a doors most investors never walk through.
If you are tired of losing deals over financing, this workshop changes the way you invest. You stop depending on approvals and start solving seller problems that others cannot.
What Makes This So Powerful
- You buy when other investors cannot
- You solve problems for sellers who feel stuck
- You control property with less cash out of pocket

The Paperwork and Structure
- The documents used in Subject To transactions
- How deals are structured to reduce the chance of issues
- How insurance, payments, and servicing are handled
Dealing with Risk
- Where investors get into trouble and how to avoid those mistakes
- Red flags that tell you to walk away
- How to protect yourself while taking over payments
Finding the Right Sellers
- How to spot homeowners open to terms
- Marketing angles that attract sellers who need this option
- Turning leads you already have into Subject To opportunities
Real Deal Walkthroughs
- How real Subject To deals were structured
- What worked, what did not, and why
- How these deals turned into profit
This Is Not a Sit and Listen Event
You see the structure. You hear the conversations. You leave with a clear process you can apply to your next lead.
Who Needs to Be in This Room
- Investors losing deals because buyers cannot get loans

How to Supercharge Your Social Media Using AI
with Don DeRosa!
Join Don DeRosa on March 9th 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.
Most real estate investors post on social media and hear silence.
Few likes.
Few comments.
Few leads.
Meanwhile a small group of investors publish content every day. Their posts reach thousands of people. Their phones ring. Sellers contact them first.
The difference is not experience.
The difference is systems and AI.
On Monday night at the Atlanta REIA meeting, Don DeRosa will show how investors use AI to multiply their social media presence and dramatically increase engagement.
This session shows how investors produce weeks of content in hours while reaching more sellers, buyers, and partners.
You will see how modern AI tools produce video, voice, and written content at scale.
Topics covered:
- How investors produce daily video without recording every day
- How AI generated presenters create professional video content
- How synthetic voice produces narration and podcasts fast
- How automated posting keeps your social media active every day
- How to turn one idea into 20 pieces of content
- How investors increase engagement and inbound leads
You will see a live breakdown of how one idea turns into posts, reels, shorts, and videos across multiple platforms.
No complicated tech background required.
These tools allow investors, agents, and entrepreneurs to reach thousands of people with consistent content.
If your social media feels quiet, inconsistent, or ignored, this session will change how you approach marketing.
Seats fill quickly at Atlanta REIA meetings.
Be in the room by 6PM sharp.
Attend in person to see the full demonstration live.
Show up early. Bring a notebook. This presentation moves fast.
Join us to find out for yourself 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 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. RSVP Now!
Atlanta REIA Members Can Attend for no charge.
Guests Can RSVP Online Now for $20 or Pay $25 at the Door.
At 5:00 PM, we have a Vendor Trade Show that lasts throughout the meeting where you can come out and meet many of our participating Business Members and Vendor Guests who help sponsor our meeting.

Tues, March 3rd at NOON
1633 Carter Rd, Decatur, GA
Renovation by Visions Group LLC
Funded by Chip Cagle of Longhorn Investments
Tuesday, March 3rd @ NOON: The Onsite Renovation Group with Don DeRosa and Chrissy Griffin will be meeting at a newly completed rehab located at 1633 Carter Rd, Decatur, GA 30032.
This beautifully transformed home at 1633 Carter Rd has been fully renovated by Visions Group LLC, with funding provided by Chip Cagle of Longhorn Investments. Originally a 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom home offering approximately 1,400 square feet on a generous 0.37-acre lot, the property has been thoughtfully redesigned to maximize space, flow, and functionality.
The original layout featured a closed-off floor plan where only the living and dining areas were visible upon entry. The former carport had been converted into an additional room, and while the home featured original hardwood floors throughout most of the house, the kitchen flooring was inconsistent with the rest of the home.
Today, the property has been completely reimagined into a spacious 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom home. The former carport conversion has been transformed into a true owner’s suite, complete with a newly added private bathroom. The kitchen has been opened up to create a seamless view into the living room, enhancing the home’s flow and functionality. A stylish island has been added, making the space ideal for entertaining and everyday living.
Design upgrades include:
- New hardwood flooring installed for consistency throughout the home (with the exception of the primary bedroom)
- Hardwood floors stained a rich medium brown for a warm, modern finish
- New carpet installed in the primary bedroom for added comfort
- Accent walls for contemporary character and design appeal
- All new windows
- New interior and exterior doors
- Brand new HVAC system
- Newly created dedicated laundry room
Both bathrooms have been fully upgraded with luxurious finishes, delivering a modern and elevated aesthetic throughout.
This renovation blends thoughtful design, structural improvements, and high-quality finishes to deliver a move-in-ready home that meets today’s market expectations while maximizing value on a spacious Decatur lot.
If you want to learn about fixing and flipping houses for huge profits, mark your calendar and join us at the Onsite Renovation Group!
Atlanta REIA wants to thank New Western and Longhorn Investment for sponsoring the Onsite Renovation Group.

Interest rates stay high. Buyers fail to qualify. Deals fall apart at the closing table. Meanwhile, a small group of investors keeps closing, deal after deal, by stepping into the seller’s loan instead of applying for a new one.
This is not theory. This is how properties change hands every week using “Subject To”. The seller signs the deed. The existing loan stays in place. You control the property. When you know how to structure the conversation and the paperwork, you open a doors most investors never walk through.
If you are tired of losing deals over financing, this workshop changes the way you invest. You stop depending on approvals and start solving seller problems that others cannot.
What Makes This So Powerful
- You buy when other investors cannot
- You solve problems for sellers who feel stuck
