Where do you go to get a lease option buyer or an owner finance buyer qualified to get a conventional mortgage and cash you out?

These same people may be able to qualify in a few years with some help and guidance. Come hear from an expert in this arena as he discusses credit, how it impacts the marginal borrower, and how to resolve their issues. For more than 20 years, Hurtis has been working with lenders and attorneys to help their clients understand and improve their credit issues.
Founded in 1992 and incorporated in 1997, The Barrington Financial Group, Inc is a mortgage consulting company that specializes in assisting banking and mortgage lending institutions with their prospective home buyers who are having difficulty in qualifying for a mortgage.

Yes, I said ONE deal a day. I will show you 7 ways to find 7 deals in 7 days, and find all the deals you need as well.
I will be sharing with you everything you need to know about how to find deals quickly and with using very little money, if any at all. If you have a phone and have access to a computer, you are in business.
I will explain the whole process: the small but vital details, where to find deals, how to find the sellers and how to stay focused in order to find one deal a day.
Here are the items I will share with you:
- Where to find deals
- How to sell them in a flash
- What market to choose
- Where to get the list of prospects
- What kind of properties to focus on
- Where to get the money from for these deals (Only if you need them)
- How to partner with me to use a list of over 6,000 cash buyers
- And much, much more
EARLY BIRD BONUS: I believe in rewarding action takers and entrepreneurs that are willing to do what it takes in order to change their lives or have the desire to get better at what they are already doing. Therefore, I will offer some bonuses. As a special bonus this month for all “early birds,” I am offering the following:
- A digital copy of my book, “Extraordinary Results by Ordinary Investors”

This month at the Beginning Investors Group (BIG), we are excited to have our good friend and local real estate investing expert, Don DeRosa, as our special guest speaker. Don will be teaching us the basics of rehabbing houses for big profits. The meeting will take place on Monday, June 15th at 6:30PM at Hudson Grille located at 6317 Roswell Rd in Sandy Springs.
Are you new to real estate and the thought of purchasing an ugly house that needs lots of work terrifies you? Maybe the thought of a rehab is exciting to you, but you haven’t actually followed through with it yet because you fear that you do not have enough knowledge about funding and fixing houses to take that plunge. Rehabbing houses can mean BIG PAYCHECKS, but they can also come with VERY EXPENSIVE LESSONS if you don’t know what you are doing.
Please join us this month at BIG as Don helps to take away the guesswork behind what it takes to quickly and profitably rehab houses.
At the meeting, Don will teach us…
- What to look for in a rehab property
- How to evaluate what rehab is needed in a property during your pre-purchase inspection
- How to determine what you should fix and what you should not
- Where you can get the biggest “bang for your buck”
- How to estimate repair costs
- Should you do the repair yourself or hire someone else to do it for you?
- How to pick a good contractor
- And much, much more!
Don DeRosa has successfully completed many of his own rehab projects. He is also an author, teacher, coach, and national speaker. Don has trained thousands of new and experienced investors alike and helped them build their wealth in real estate. Don’t miss this opportunity to learn from an expert.
And that’s just the beginning….Don will be teaching a 2 Day Rehabbing 101 Workshop in July where he will teach you much more detailed information about rehabbing and even take you out to SHOW you some rehab projects in progress. This is an amazing opportunity to get some practical, HANDS-ON education into how to successfully rehab houses.
We look forward to seeing you at the meeting!
Atlanta REIA Members Please RSVP on Meetup.com
if you have a meetup account.
After the conclusion of the Atlanta REIA BIG Meeting (after 9:00PM), we will be hanging out at the Hudson Grille for Late Nite Networking also known as the “Meeting After the Meeting”. Stick around, have some dessert, a drink, network and have fun with like-minded investors and real estate professionals as we hang out late into the night!
*Please Note: Meeting agenda is subject to change.
If you become an Atlanta REIA member before midnight, June 14th, you may attend this BIG Meeting at no charge as well as other great Atlanta REIA Meetings, plus get great discounts on other Atlanta REIA Workshops.
BIG is an educational and networking special interest group, hosted by Dustin Griffin 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 start investing again. The entire purpose of this group is to educate and inspire new investors working on their “first deal” and help new again investors get their “next deal”. Please join us on the 3rd Monday of each month at Hudson Grille located at 6317 Roswell Rd in Sandy Springs.
Determine Your Wholesale Market at the Atlanta Wholesalers Group on June 16, 2015
Posted on June 2, 2015 byNot if You are This Guy…
with Special Guest, Rodrigo Afanador
June 16th, 7PM, Hudson Grille
6317 Roswell Rd, Sandy Springs, GA
Atlanta REIA Members & Guests, Please RSVP on Meetup.com
if you have a meetup account. Non-Members can also attend at No Charge
Here in Atlanta, we are blessed to have more opportunities to do deals than most places. With a population of more than 5 million, opportunity lies everywhere. However, it is extremely difficult to actually DO deals everywhere. So, we take our maps and carve out our small areas. Those small areas still easily have a population of a couple hundred thousand people though.
What if you could leverage the knowledge of someone who is doing deals consistently with a target area of under 20,000 people? Rodrigo Afanador does just that and is very excited to share with us this month at the Atlanta Wholesalers group meeting on Tuesday, June 16th.
Rodrigo is a good friend of mine and does his wholesaling in Asheville, North Carolina. While Asheville has 80,000 people compared to Atlanta’s 5M+, Rodrigo still takes his target market down to around 15,000 – 20,000 people for 80-90% of his business. He is also a newer investor who hasn’t been doing this for too terribly long, but has gone full time now and is creating his own success story each and every day.
Rodrigo has a valuable story because each and every one of us can relate to at least some part of it. We all were new investors at one point or may still be a newer investor and he has taken the plunge into doing this full time like so many of us also have or hopefully plan to be able to do.
I know that you will learn a great amount of information from hearing Rodrigo speak with us about how he gets his business done in a market where most people would say “there aren’t enough houses to find deals.” His knowledge is abundant. His story is inspirational. And his efforts are greatly rewarding.
You won’t want to miss Rodrigo share his story and learn his tricks for success. Come ready to do business while you are here as well.
My name is Frank Iglesias. Come join us on Tuesday, June 16th at 7PM at the Hudson Grille located at 6317 Roswell Rd in Sandy Springs as we network, do what is now our standard deal analysis at every meeting and then we will dive into our topic for the evening! See you there!
Atlanta REIA Members & Guests, Please RSVP on Meetup.com
if you have a meetup account. Non-Members can also attend at No Charge
This Atlanta Wholesalers group is primarily for wholesalers who are serious about the business and not just “trying” Real Estate out. Frank started this group to work with other wholesalers who are serious about building their business using the utmost of honesty and integrity. We are looking forward to exploring how we can grow together in our local market. We hope you will join us!
Try Symphony Tools to Sync Your Blog to Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn for 3 Months for FREE
Posted on May 30, 2015 byI have been using a Facebook app for several years called “Networked Blogs” to sync my blog posts with both Facebook and Twitter. Recently, Network Blogs converted their services over to a new product they call “Symphony Tools” or “Symphony” for short. Whereas Networked Blogs was a free service that is being discontinued over time, Symphony is a brand new paid service that is more powerful and user friendly than Networked blogs ever was.
I use Symphony Tools to sync 4 of my blogs AtlantaREIA.com, TampaREIA.com, CharlotteREIA.com & SavannahREIA.com with their corresponding Facebook and Twitter Pages.
For example, every time a post a new blog post to AtlantaREIA.com, within 5 minutes, my blog post is automatically posted to both Facebook and Twitter. In fact, Symphony automatically checks my blog RSS feed for new posts every 5 minutes, 24/7/365 and posts any new posts or updates to my blog. This means all I have to do is keep my blog updated and Symphony will keep my Facebook and Twitter pages updated for me so that is one thing less I have to worry about doing.
I’ve been using Symphony for the past several months and it has worked flawlessly. Initially, due to the migration from Networked Blogs to Symphony I had a few problems and lots of questions.

Their support staff was very helpful and answered my questions and addressed my problems quickly.
Overall, I’ve been very happy with the new Symphony tools and I think you will be too if you are an active blogger and user of Facebook, Twitter and/or LinkedIn. In fact, if you are interested in social media, here is a special link you can use to Try Symphony Tools for 3 Months for FREE! Read More→
