Robyn Thompson’s Rehab Workshop Just Got Even Better!
VACTION RENTAL BONUS DAY!
Doubletree Hotel Roswell
1075 Holcomb Bridge Rd, Roswell, GA
Robyn Thompson is the nation’s leading expert on buying properties at deep discounts, renovating them at lightning speed and selling them quickly for huge chunks of cash.
Robyn has trained thousands of real estate investors and we are fortunate enough to have her coming to Atlanta for two full days to teach cutting edge strategies that will produce huge profits and cashflow in today’s competitive market.
On Saturday & Sunday, November 13th & 14th, 2021 from 9AM to 5PM Robyn will be teaching her 2 Day Rehabbing & Vacation Rental Workshop at the Doubletree Hotel, 1075 Holcomb Bridge Rd, Roswell, GA.
Robyn has rehabbed over 450 properties in her 22+ years of investing in up or down markets. In 2012, Robyn also started focusing on buying drop dead gorgeous houses in really nice neighborhoods with seller financing and keeping them… many at ZERO percent interest.
Lately, the number one challenge real estate investors have in the this extremely competitive real estate market is how to locate high profit deals to rehab or to keep for passive income.
At the Workshop, Robyn is going to share her top 4 marketing strategies to find the best rehabs and keeper properties so you can beat the competition hands down.
She is also going to teach you how to make multiple offers to sellers so you have a much higher probability of getting the seller to say YES to your offer.
She will show you step by step how to build a large portfolio of keepers and vacation rentals that will produce massive passive wealth for you and your family to live off for many years to come.
The amazing thing with vacation rentals is they make 2 to 3 times the cash flow of a regular, long term monthly rental. In fact, her low maintenance portfolio throws over $60,000 in income per month and she will show you exactly how she did it.
At the Workshop, she is going to teach you how to evaluate keeper properties thoroughly, so you avoid the ones that erode all your profits and you will learn how to create and make multiple offers on only the good houses that can boost your passive net worth.
On Saturday, November 13th, Robyn will be teaching you how to renovate houses for huge chunks of cash and on Sunday, November 14th, she is going to share with you her secrets on how to buy and hold gorgeous higher caliber properties that produce more cash flow, have much less vacancy and maximum appreciation in a very short time. You will avoid all the headaches that go with long term rentals and low end problem tenants.
As you can see this 2 Day Rehabbing & Vacation Rental Workshop will be packed full of knowledge, excitement and education. We look forward to seeing you at this great event on Saturday & Sunday, November 13th & 14th. Register Now!

Posted on October 26, 2021 byA Hands-On, Online Workshop for Any Investor Who Wants to Know, Understand & Run Their Numbers Like a Pro!
When it comes to running a profitable real estate investing business, it’s all about knowing your numbers. If you’re off on your numbers, you may barely break even on a deal or even worse… lose big time!
You’ve probably heard the saying… “You make your money when you buy and you get paid when you sell”. This means YOU MUST KNOW YOUR NUMBERS BEFORE YOU BUY SO THAT YOU WILL GET PAID WHEN YOU SELL! You don’t want to over pay for properties, especially in today’s real estate market.
So when it comes to knowing your numbers…

Creative Deal Structuring Online Workshop – October 23, 2021
Posted on October 6, 2021 by
How To Make the Most of the Upcoming Tsunami of Foreclosures
Learn How to Structure Creative Deals Like a BOSS
with Don DeRosa
With housing inventory at an all time low, it has become increasingly more difficult to find deals. Notice I didn’t say GOOD deals, I said deals in general. If you are homeowner, in the market to buy a house, it can be a very frustrating task. Especially when it seems everyone is bidding on the same home and willing to pay ridiculous prices. It can be even worse if you don’t have the cash to compete with buyers that do. However, this is about to change. I am about to change your life and how you look at real estate deals forever.
Fortunes are NOT made when you buy in a SELLERS market. Fortunes are made when you buy in a BUYERS market and then, sell in a Sellers market. With the number of mortgage defaults at the highest level it’s been since 2008 the writing is on the wall. As an investor you need to be prepared. Prepared to take full advantage of the upcoming chaos that is about to happen. But, in order to take advantage of this chaos you must be armed with the proper tools and the exact steps to take before it hits. That is why I have created this brand new seminar on the how to handle this foreclosure tsunami like a BOSS.
While everyone is fighting over the small pool of retail buyers there is an entire segment of homes that will need solutions to their financial problems. These homes do not fit the normal mold of a good retail sale. They may possibly be over leveraged, need repairs and are in severe financial distress, which most retail homeowners won’t want to deal with or even know how, but are ideal for the smart educated creative investors. Time to elevate your game.
At this event you will learn:
- How to buy real estate without using banks using creative techniques, even if you have no cred or cash
- How to attract the most motivated sellers to call you
- How to prescreen them like a Pro, so you don’t waste time on non-motivated sellers
- What questions are the right ones to ask the Seller and which ones get you nowhere
- How to evaluate COMPS, determine “After Repair Value” and calculate guaranteed profit
- How to make sure you NAIL your repair cost in this rapidly rising lumber price market
- How to formulate 3 different offers on every home you want to buy
- How to get a wholesale profit of 5k or more, and keep the property for cash flow as well
- What are the 11 creative BUYING strategies every investor must know, like “Sub To” wrap around mortgages, Sandwich Lease Options, etc…
- Why someone will be glad to give you the deed to their home, in fact they may even pay you to take it off their hands (Yes this happens)
- How to create three different pay days on every deal that you do. (Upfront, cash flow and backend)
- How to match the BUYING strategies with the seven main SELLING strategies to make you recession proof.
- Why the due on sale clause is not as important as you originally thought
- And a whole lot more…
Once you learn these time tested strategies and techniques you will be able to take this market by storm and ride this massive wave straight to the bank.
Come join me Online on Saturday, October 23rd from 9am – 6pm
I look forward to seeing you all there. Register Now!
Buying Houses Subject-To Workshop with Don DeRosa on Sept 11, 2021
Posted on September 7, 2021 byin Today’s Real Estate Market
Online Workshop with Don DeRosa
My name is Don DeRosa. I am a real estate trainer, mentor and full-time real estate investor actively buying, selling and holding properties each month for huge profits and long-term cash flow. When I first started almost 24 years ago, I thought I wanted to be a wholesaler and flip contracts because I thought I needed a bunch of cash to buy and hold, or buy and rehab houses. I was like everyone else starting out in this business. I didn’t have lots of money, so I thought wholesaling was the easy way to go.
Boy was I wrong. Fortunately for me I was introduced to a buying technique called “Subject-To” by a friend. This is a technique where the Seller deeds the property over to you (you own it) but leaves the loan in place and you simply continue to make the existing payments (you don’t have to go to the bank and qualify).
Well I must say this technique changed my life. Within the first 30 days of learning the Subject-To technique I bought 4 houses for one dollar each (yes, you read that correctly) and I have been buying them that way ever since.
I no longer have to sell the “Golden Goose” to make lots of money. Today I am working furiously at buying properties “Subject-To” using the existing financing on the seller’s home instead of having to go to a bank or a hard money lender for funding. This allows me to buy multiple properties fast, without coming up with all the purchase funds on the front end.
Subject-To is the perfect strategy to use in today’s market where easy funding is not readily available for investors to buy pretty houses. Buying houses “Subject-To” the existing finances is by far the most powerful technique is real estate today. You can control and own an enormous amount of real estate with very little money. Understanding how to get sellers to finance your deals is the ultimate investment strategy.
If you’re a person who doesn’t have a lot of cash, or doesn’t have good cred or simply doesn’t want to use your cred, then you need to attend the upcoming Tampa REIA “Subject-To” Workshop where I will be teaching you how to effectively use this technique. Learning this technique may very well be a life changing event for you like it was for me.
Join me for the “Subject-To” Workshop on Saturday, September 11th from 9AM to 5PM and I will share with you, many of the Subject-To tools and techniques I use every day to create winning deals for myself as well as my buyers and sellers.
I will demonstrate how to apply these strategies, tools and techniques, and show you exactly how to evaluate the lead, determine your exit strategy, structure the deal, negotiate with the seller and get the paperwork done almost instantly and without any of the hard work you normally do to get your deals done.
By the end of the presentation, you’ll know how to buy houses…
- Without using your own cred
- Without having to sign personally on a note
- Without having to qualify for a mortgage
- Without having much money
Also…
- How to recognize a “Subject To” opportunity and buy with little or no money!
- How to evaluate any lead and decide whether this is a winner for you and how much money you’ll make before you make your offer
- How to combine buying strategies and exit strategies – that work right now, in 2021
- How to structure a deal in less than 10 minutes, so that you make a minimum of $20,000 on it, choosing from multiple purchase and exist strategies
- How to determine the seller’s hot buttons so you can craft a deal the seller can’t refuse
- How to use my proprietary tools to negotiate for you, so you never let your emotions talk you into making a bad deal!
- And how to find all the money you need to do these deals so you have zero money out of your pocket.
Join me as I really, really drive these points home and give you all the Subject-To details you need to succeed in real estate investing. Once you are armed with my training and the tools, you will be able to do deals you never thought possible! RSVP NOW & DON’T MISS IT!

Find Your Fit in Real Estate Investing with Roger Blankenship at the Beginning Investors Group

with Roger Blankenship
Join us at the Beginning Investors Group (BIG) on Monday, June 21st at 6:30PM at the Hudson Grille in Sandy Springs located at 6317 Roswell Rd in Sandy Springs with our special guest speaker, Roger Blankenship, who will be discussing “How to Find Your Fit in Real Estate Investing!”
“Hi I’m Roger Blankenship, Host of the nationally syndicated radio show, “Flipping America” and I’m going to be in Atlanta Monday, June 21st, 2021 at the Beginning Investors Group (BIG) to talk about getting started in real estate investing. Although my show is called Flipping America, I don’t believe flipping houses is for everyone. In fact it’s not ideal for most people. But I do believe that everyone – including you – should consider real estate as a part of a balanced investment portfolio.
We have documented at least 86 career paths in real estate and real estate investment. Many of those have variations with different asset classes and strategies. I honestly believe there are more than a thousand ways to make a million dollars in real estate. One of them is probably right for you.
But how do you figure this out? I’ve watched hundreds of people over the years and seen people both flourish and flop. I’ve also seen some of the people who failed at one thing do really well at a different thing. And I’ve started noticing patterns among people who do well. So a couple of years ago I started building profiles of successful people in different areas – wholesalers, flippers, builders, rental investors and lenders. What we have learned is that successful people in each area have certain characteristics and life situations. Those who lack those qualities struggle and usually don’t do well.
What if there was a way every person could figure this out BEFORE they begin? Perhaps we could help people save time and money by pointing them in a direction that gives them a better chance of succeeding. This thinking led to the “Find Your Fit” Presentation I’m bringing to Atlanta Monday night. I will be speaking at the Beginning Investor Group, a sub-group meeting of the Atlanta REIA. The meeting begins at 6:30 pm at the Hudson Grille in Sandy Springs. After the presentation I’ll stick around and answer every question anyone has about getting started in this great business. My personal goal is to train 1000 real estate millionaires. And I hope YOU will be one of them! See you at BIG!
Your daily routine should consist of enhancing your mental, physical and emotional health. With a consistent routine, everything aligns in the right direction. By applying all of these actions, this will change your Life!! There will be distractions, life will happen, but your WHY should keep you on the right path!”
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 Dustin Griffin 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 Member can attend the meeting at no charge and not-yet-members can RSVP Online for $15 or pay $20 at the door.
Commercial Real Estate Investing Master Class with Marco Kozlowski on June 19, 2021
Posted on June 8, 2021 byA Half Day Commercial Real Estate Master Class with Marco Kozlowski
Doubletree Suites Tampa Bay
3050 North Rocky Point Dr West, Tampa, FL
Or Attend Online via Zoom Webinar
Join Atlanta REIA or Renew Your Membership Between June 1st & 19th and Attend at NO CHARGE!
Due to the incredible response we’ve received from Marco Kozlowski’s presentation at Tampa REIA last month on how to find discounted U.S-based real estate and buy as many units as you want, using NONE of your own money…
TAMPA REIA is excited to announce that we’ve asked Marco to come back for an encore presentation. This time, it’s a full, 3-hour masterclass on Saturday, June 19th from 9AM to NOON at the Doubletree Tampa Rockypoint Waterfront located at 3050 North Rocky Point Dr. West in Tampa, FL or Online via Zoom Webinar.
Register for the Commercial Master Class Now!
In this Master Class, Marco’s going to show you:
- How to exclusively use other people’s money to buy as many multis as you want, regardless of credit.
- Case studies on how this was done (he has hundreds of video testimonials of successful students, and new deals every week)…
- How to get heavy discounts on multis, starting today…
- How to pull thousands out at closing on your 1st deal…
- How to guarantee your results (as long as you follow a step by step process…)
- How you can do ALL of it part time… never leaving your house… on your laptop (yes, including closing)
- Ask as many questions as you like so you can start immediately
This is the best system I’ve seen if you want to add a new passive-income source to your life (or get WAY more units if you’re already an investor)…
… That can not only protect you against economic downturns like we’re in now… but allow you to profit from them FAR more than during normal economic times (while feeling good about helping people at the same time.)
His average student is able to retire in about 3 years. With what’s coming, he expects that time to be cut in half.
Obviously we can cover Marco’s system in a LOT more detail with a full 2-hour masterclass, so I highly recommend you block out a couple of hours tonight, turn off distractions, and watch it in full.
Register for Marco’s Master Class Here
*PLEASE NOTE: Tuition price will increase and will be per person after Early Registration Expires. Register now and save! You can choose to attend In Person or Online during checkout.
BTW, if you’re interested in Marco’s system and are wondering how you can get started, he gives you a way to get his help buying your first 3-5 unit property.
It will “net” about $200 per month (per unit), meaning your first asset will generate $600 – $1,000 per month… forever.
Oh, and he’ll show you how to pull out $3,000 at closing (which is more than the cost of the program).
If you believe in the power of real estate to make you wealthy and want more passive-income in your life, this is a no-brainer. Register for Marco’s Master Class Now!
