Talent vs. Skill

Posted on February 6, 2017 by

Quick question for you: Are you talented? Or do you have skills? THAT is the question of the day.

What is TALENT? Simply put, it’s what you’re born with. Your God-given gifts. Your natural tools. For example, the ability to run really fast or sing extremely well. Other examples would include being mathematically-inclined, naturally charismatic, graceful & coordinated, or naturally artistic.  Read More→

Posted on January 30, 2017 by

Jack KudronI’m originally from Massachusetts and moved to South Florida when I was 19.  I worked full time while putting myself through college, graduating from Florida Atlantic University with a degree in Marketing.

I’ve been investing in real estate for the past 30 years.  I started at the age of 21 with a 1/3 investment in a house in South Florida. We sold the house and split the $21,000 profit 3 ways, each receiving $7,000.

I then started buying properties on my own. I couldn’t afford a lot back then, so I moved into them, sleeping on the floors and using a cooler as my refrigerator.  I sold one house at a time, increasing my net worth over time.

Beginning in 1986, I moved 8 times within a 6-month period, selling the homes while I lived in them, until I could finally afford to buy a condo on the beach.  Read More→

Mike CherwenkaMike Cherwenka is Atlanta’s leading expert in residential quick turn real estate. Mike has wholesaled and fixed and flipped over 2,050 single family homes since 1996 and is known as the “Godfather in flipping homes”. Mike has also acquired 93 rental properties on the Atlanta Housing Authority Section 8 program.

Mike is known for literally transforming blighted communities into beautiful neighborhoods. His niche is “MAKING MONEY IN THE HOOD”. A true “TRANSACTION ENGINEER”. Nobody find bargains like Mike.

Mike believes learning the skills to fix and flip residential real estate correctly is the surest way to achieve financial freedom. Unlike most of the educational speakers on the circuit who have not even flipped a handful of properties, Mike is the “real deal” flipping 2-3 properties weekly. It is safe to say Mike has more experience than anyone in the market place.

A true “Rags to Riches” story on how Mike overcame $100,000 in debt to becoming a multi-millionaire through real estate investing in 1996. And lost several millions during the real estate crash of 2008-2013 and had to start all over again. Learn the TRUTH in achieving financial freedom. What really works and how to achieve it.
