Bill Cook is Teaching at BIG Online on May 25, 2016
Posted on May 19, 2016 byLearn the Quickest, Easiest & Most Affordable Way To Get In Front Of Sellers
A Live Webcast with Bill Cook
Register for Webcast @ BIGOnline.AtlantaREIA.com
Here’s the big picture: You must let everyone know who you are and what you do. The goal is to have all the folks in your area call you if they are considering selling their property. Your next task is to separate the folks who WANT to sell from the folks who NEED to sell. And finally, when you find a motivated seller, you must be able to creatively structure a win-win deal, as well as be willing to pull the trigger quickly – ’cause great deals don’t hang around long!
By far, the MOST effective thing we do to accomplish the above goals is knocking on sellers’ doors and asking Pete Fortunato’s famous question: “Why are you selling such a nice house like this?” Nothing, nothing, nothing works better than knocking on sellers’ doors!
I know that, in this day of iPads, websites and high-tech gadgetry, many will disagree with me. That’s fine. But realize that, for the most part, the ones who disagree with me have NEVER gone out knocking on sellers’ doors. Think about it: What’s the point of websites, direct mail campaigns, squeeze pages, dialing for dollars, etc.? Isn’t it to get you face-to-face with a seller?
If you want to learn more about how to get face-time with 8 out of every 10 sellers, join us on Wednesday, May 25th at 7:00 PM ET for a Special Webinar where Bill is going to tell you about the Quickest, Easiest & Most Affordable Way To Get In Front Of Sellers!
No Charge to Attend ONLINE for Members or Guests!
If you are really serious about upping your investing game, You should NOT MISS this webinar! Read More→

Nothing But Paperwork Workshop on June 3, 2016
Posted on May 17, 2016 byHow To Properly Complete Real Estate Investor Contracts & Paperwork
In Person in Buford or
Online via GoToWebinar!
Do real estate contracts and paperwork scare the daylights out of you? Do you wish you had a better understanding of how to fill out all the paperwork that comes with being a real estate investor for each and every deal you do? We have the solution to your problem!
On Friday, June 3rd, 2016 at 9AM, (1) in person at 1960 Skylar Hill Drive, Suite D, Buford, GA or (2) Online via GoToWebinar.com, we will teach you how to be a paper pushing real estate pro. We are going to show you how fill out all the paperwork that you use on a daily basis to become a real estate investor and more importantly, a “transaction engineer”.
Paperwork like:
- Purchase and Sale Agreements
- Authorization to Release Information
- Power of Attorney
- Land Trusts
- Beneficial Interest
- Appointment of Trustee
- Assignments
- Leases
- Options
- Disclosures
- And many other documents that you will use on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis depending on the kinds of deals your doing.
Here are some things that you will learn:
- How to fill out all the documents needed to protect yourself from potential legal issues
- How to explain each paragraph to your sellers, your lenders, and even your buyers so everyone is informed and comfortable with the paperwork
- How to write in the financing terms – the payment structure, who’s paying closing cost, who’s doing the home inspections, what the closing dates are, and who is the closing attorney
- What steps need to be taken when someone defaults on an agreement
- What paperwork needs to be notarized
- What paperwork needs to be filed at the courthouse and what paperwork is private that nobody sees
- What kind of disclosures you have to offer, such as:
- Seller Disclosures
- Lead-based paint
- Asbestos
- Radon
- Agency disclosures
We are also going to show you how to take all of these mounds of required paperwork that you will use on a daily, weekly, and/or monthly basis and put it all in the palm of your hands! We will show you how to make the mounds of paperwork into electronic files that can be filled out within seconds versus minutes, hours, or in some cases, days.
We are also going to share with you the 8 things that could blow up your real estate transaction if you are not careful:
- The seller doesn’t have the authority to sell
- The purchase and sale agreement is signed improperly
- The purchase and sale agreement has the wrong or in adequate legal description
- Earnest money is handled improperly
- Allowing the seller to stay in the property after closing without the right possession agreement
- Failure to indicate clearly what the seller gets and what the buyer gets so that everyone understands
- Failure to get all of the initials and signatures to make it a valid sale
- Failing to give proper disclosures
- Not allowing yourself enough special stipulations or out clauses to protect you from losing your earnest money
If you want to take the fear out of filling out contracts and completing the paperwork properly and want to organize and systematize your real estate documents, this is a one day training event you don’t want to miss! We hope you will join us!

This month at the Atlanta REIA South / Multi-Family Commercial Investing Group, on Wednesday, May 4th, we are excited to announce that Michael Ventry, Business Development Specialist with Advanta IRA Administration will be our special guest speaker. The meeting will be held at 6PM at Club E Atlanta located at 3707 Main Street in College Park, GA. Mike will be talking about how to use your IRA to fund real estate projects and earn tax-free passive income.
Have you ever thought about being a private lender but don’t know enough about how it all works in order to make an informed decision? Mike is here to help shed some light onto the subject for you. During his presentation, Mike will be discussing the various types of loans that his company has seen their clients make out of their IRA accounts as well as all the benefits that come along with being a private lender.
Mike will also talk about…
- Non-Recourse Loans
- Disqualified Persons
- Potential Pitfalls of Private Lending
- Examples of Transactions Executed by Advanta Clients
- And much, much more!
Mike has over a decade of experience in the mortgage banking industry. He has an exceptional background in providing superior customer service and communication to his clients. Mike holds an MLO license with the federal and State of Georgia Departments of Banking and Finance. IN his current role, he assists new clients and investors by providing them with the education and knowledge to learn about self-direction. Mike is also a frequent attendee at real estate (and non-real estate) networking groups that meet in the area.
You definitely do not want to miss this meeting and learn from Mike Ventry and hear all about how to earn the big bucks by “being the bank.” There will be a lot of learning and great networking. Make sure to bring your business cards and deals to discuss.
