How to Make Impossible Deals Profitable with Bill Cook at Atlanta REIA on Sept 10, 2018
Posted on September 7, 2018 by& Vendor Trade Show
3125 Presidential Pkwy, Atlanta, GA
Atlanta REIA Members Can Attend at No Charge. This month,
Guests Can RSVP Online Now for $20 or Pay $25 at the Door.
If you’d like to turn all your “impossible” leads into “possible” and “profitable” deals, make sure that you don’t miss the Atlanta REIA Main Meeting on Monday, September 10th from 5PM-9PM at 3125 Presidential Pkwy, Atlanta, GA with local real estate investing expert, Bill Cook!
We’re continually told that to reach our full potential as real estate investors, we must work outside the box. At the beginning of Bill’s discussion, he’ll explain why this advice is wrong. It’s not about working outside some box that counts. To reach our full potential, we must realize there is no box!
To be a successful real estate investor, consider this: The job of a real estate investor is not to buy, sell or rent houses. Our job is to solve people’s real estate problems.
Do you want to achieve financial freedom? Then don’t go out looking for “deals”. Instead, go out looking for problems to solve and people to help. In other words, look for peoples’ uncomfortable circumstances. This one shift in your thinking can completely alter your life’s financial outcome.
Think of it this way: When you go out, are you looking to do FOR people or TO people? You already know that “FOR” attracts and “TO” repels. Each day, are you attracting or repelling business?
To make all deals possible, you only need to do five things:
- Get face-to-face with sellers
- Be curious and ask questions – a LOT of questions!
- Draw up a T-bar
- Understand a teeter-totter offer
- Put your offer in writing
At the Atlanta REIA meeting, as we talk about creative deal structuring, you’ll walk away with a clearer understanding of these five most-important things.
You’ll also see examples of a number of our creatively constructed and funded real-world deals. In addition, we‘ll answer these four deal-making questions:
- How was it found?
- How was it structured?
- How was it funded?
- And once bought, what did we do with it?
Finally, here are a number of questions we promise to answer:
- What’s the fastest, cheapest, most effective way to get face-to-face with homeowners and sellers?
- What is the best way to learn how to creatively construct and fund a deal?
- What type of deal is the safest to do, and still offers the highest yields?
- What is the best way to get owner financing or find private money lenders?
- When a seller calls, what two questions should you ask?
- What’s the best way to determine a property’s value?
- What’s the most you should pay for a property? (This answer will floor you!)
- When an investor is sinking, what two questions do I ask to determine the cause?
- Is it possible to make five written offers each day?
- What needs to be your daily goal?
- What does it really take to succeed at real estate investing?
If you’ve been wanting to turn all your impossible trash leads into profitable cash deals, join us at Atlanta REIA on Monday, September 10th to find out more! Take Action and RSVP Now! We look forward to seeing you at this month’s main meeting!
*Please Note: Meeting agenda is subject to change.

This month’s meeting will be held at newly completed rehab project located at 77 Glenrose Cir SW, Atlanta, GA being managed by Maria Rosenswike who is an active rehabber and frequent attendee at our Onsite Renovation Group.
This was a 1032 sq ft, 3 bedroom, 1.5 bath home built in 1963. It was a vacant, ugly, run down house that needed lots of updating. Maria gutted the entire house, added 280 sqft for the master bedroom, changed the roofline, added a new front porch, a 12 x 16 deck in back, new fencing and a gate. Everything is new from roof to foundation… new flooring, new tile, new sheetrock, new electrical, new kitchen, new baths, new outdoor living space, new everything.
At the meeting, you will see how Maria transformed this old house into a modern day home that buyers are looking for. Maria also renovated the house next door which recently sold for $210K at the end of June. So join us and come see this house now before it’s sold and learn some valuable lessons on how Maria did it!

Door Knocking Field Trip with Bill Cook on September 29, 2018
Posted on September 1, 2018 byCHANGE OF VENUE
Meet at Dunkin Donuts, 5558 Peachtree Industrial Blvd, Chamblee, GA
When it comes to learning about real estate investing, we can all agree that getting face-to-face with sellers is where the rubber meets the road. No classroom training or roll playing takes the place of sitting at a seller’s kitchen table, asking the hard questions, creatively structuring a win-win deal, and memorializing that agreement in a written offer. NOTHING!
If you want to SEE the fastest, cheapest, most effective way to get face-to-face with motivated sellers, then join me, Bill Cook, for a day full of door knocking with real sellers on Saturday, September 29th from 8:30 AM – 6:00 PM at Dunkin Donuts, 5558 Peachtree Industrial Blvd, Chamblee, GA. We’ll spend the day out talking to sellers and constructing win-win deals at their kitchen tables.
What’s the fastest, cheapest, most effective way to get face-to-face with motivated sellers? When you see a For Sale sign in a seller’s yard, get out of your car and knock on the seller’s door. It’s as simple as that!
I know what you’re thinking: The seller will slam the door in my face; the seller will yell at me; the seller will tell me to get lost or call the cops!
I know something else, too: You say this having never spent a single day out knocking on homeowners’ doors – especially out knocking doors with someone who has done it for nearly 40 years!
Some of the Questions I’ll Answer While We’re Out Door Knocking:
- Which homes should you go to?
- How and where should you stand when at the seller’s door?
- What should you carry with you?
- What do you say when the seller answers the door?
- What do you do if no one is home?
- Why will 8 out of 10 sellers invite you in?
- What are the best types of neighborhoods to work?
- What do you do after the seller invites you in?
- How do you get to the seller’s kitchen table and why it’s THE place to be?
- What are the MOST important questions to ask a seller?
- How do you construct a win-win offer?
- What do you do if the house is vacant or bank owned?
On Saturday, September 29th, 2018 at 8:30 AM, I’ll be taking a select group of real estate investors out door knocking. We’ll be meeting in at McDonald’s, 5493 Peachtree Industrial Blvd, Chamblee, GA at 8:30 AM SHARP for check in and breakfast.
Just think, you have the opportunity to spend the day out meeting with sellers in the real world with someone who has made his living knocking on homeowners’ doors for more nearly 40 years!
I promise you’ll come away with some really great stories, plus a couple of big Ah-Hah moments that can dramatically change the course of your real estate investing life! Register Now!

On the webinar, I asked David to tell you how he got started just a few years ago and how he and his business Vesado became successful so quickly in a highly competitive market like Tampa, FL dominated by our friends at New Western Acquisitions, NetWorth Realty, Homevestors and others to numerous to mention.
I also asked David to tell you, that if he had to start all over again from zero, knowing what he knows now, what if anything he might do differently in 2018 to start anew.
If you want to learn to go from zero to hero from someone who has been there and done that and was in your shoes just a few short years ago, register for the webinar now at BIGO.co and join us on Tuesday, August 28th at 7PM ET to learn how you can do it!

This month’s meeting will be held at a nearly completed rehab project located at 1860 S Gordon St SW in Atlanta, GA being managed by Malhar Bhagat.
The house was purchased as a 2/1, 1200 sqft with an additional 1200 sqft unfinished basement that Malhar is converting into a 4/3, roughly 2200 sqft home with a finished basement. The entire back of the house was rotted so Malhar is rebuilding most of the back of the house and opening up the floor plan. He took the house down to the studs, and in some parts, down to the foundation for renovation. The house is currently in the trim out phase and should be completed within a month.
There are many lessons to be learned on this project and all the projects we visit, so come join us and see the transformations for yourself and find out more how you can get involved in fixing and flipping houses!

Contractor Impossible at Atlanta REIA West on August 27, 2018
Posted on August 22, 2018 byRehab Projects
with Roger Blankenship
No Charge for Atlanta REIA Members, Guests $10 at the Door.
Join us for this Atlanta REIA West Real Estate Event at 6:30pm on Monday, August 27th at The Cherokee Cattle Company at 2710 Canton Rd in Marietta where Roger Blankenship will show you how to find, vet, interview, hire and manage contractors.
There are two important factors that determines your success in real estate investing. The most important determining factor in real estate investing is your purchase price. This is great because you are in control. The second most important determining factor in your success is your renovation process, cost, and result. This will either make you or break you, and unfortunately, a good bit of this is not in your direct control. Why? Because you will likely be hiring a contractor to do the work.
Our industry is filled with horror stories about contractors and the renovation process. While no system can make this perfect, our system can help you take huge strides toward your goals. The procedures I am going to show you have been perfected over hundreds and hundreds of fix and flip projects. We learned a lot of lessons in the school of hard knocks and you will be the beneficiary of what we’ve learned.
Wouldn’t you rather learn from others mistakes instead of making them yourself? Come see us on Monday, August 27th and let Roger show you:
- Why you should be in continuous contractor hiring mode
- That you should trust your feelings if you’re feeling a little leery and what to do about those feelings
- What are the absolute red flag issues to prevent you from hiring
- How to investigate a contractor’s back story
- How to check their current licensing status
- The Eleven Essential documents you need for a bulletproof project and where to get them for free
- How to conduct a signing ceremony for your construction agreement
- How and when to visit your project

Does talking to Sellers on the phone make you sweat? When you drive neighborhoods looking for ugly properties, does it stress you out because you don’t know what to look for? Does the thought of talking with Sellers face-to-face make you nervous? Do you avoid knocking on doors because you’re afraid you don’t know what to say?
These are all very common fears that all beginning investors have when seeking out their first few deals. Learning how to deal with these issues can make the difference between your success and failure.
If you would like to overcome challenges such as these, please be sure to join Don DeRosa in a two day, hands-on workshop where he will teach you…
