Would you like to become a marketing machine and the “go to person” in your market?

Do you want to learn how to find deals others are looking for and cannot find?

Then join us at our Atlanta REIA North monthly meeting to learn how to find one deal a day. The meeting will be held on Wednesday, January 27th at 6:30PM located at 1960 Skylar Hill Dr, Suite D, Buford, GA.

Do you have all the leads you can need?

Marketing has been one of my strong suites and I am very proud of the results I have produced over the years from most of my campaigns. It is time to showcase my guerrilla marketing skills and show you how to find at least one deal a day. Yes, I said, ONE DEAL A DAY. I will show you 7 ways to find 7 deals in 7 days, find all the deals you need at will. I will be sharing everything you need to know on how to find deals quickly without using any money, very little if any. 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 to find one deal a day.

At the meeting 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
• 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. I am offering the following:

1. A digital copy of my book, “Extraordinary Results by Ordinary Investors”
2. A trip from 2

This month on Thursday, January 28th at 11:30AM at the 5 Seasons Brewing located at 5600 Roswell Rd, Joe Thompson will be talking about getting your year started off the right way with setting goals and making a plan to execute. Join us on Thursday, January 28th at 11:30AM!

The First Step Every Plan Needs to take a step. Did we really just say a plan needs to take a step? It does not even have legs! Well, the plan needs to take the step – the question that you should be asking is “in what direction?” It is not surprising to hear that most new business fail in the first year. Why is that? With any endeavor if you do not know where you are going, how can you get there? You must establish a destination and your plan needs to move in that direction.

If you stop and think about a destination and take the time to print out a map and chart a course, your chances of success are going to be far greater. You just need a good map and someone who knows the roads – like Atlanta REIA. Before we get to the map, let’s discuss destinations: If you are going to start a real estate business, what is your revenue goal for year one? What is your five year plan? What is your projected gross margin? What does it take to make a profit in your business?

If you are going to become a full time Real Estate Investor, which of the vast number of strategies, techniques and systems are you going to be using? How many deals do you plan to close each month? What are your exit strategies?

If you, like the rest of us here are going to profit from this current real estate market, what are you going to focus your attention on? Short sales, foreclosures, flips, rehab’s, rentals, lease purchase, notes, mobile homes, multi family, commercial, etc, etc? Do you have sufficient funds to do the type of deals you are going to target? If rental property is your goal, how many rentals do you plan to acquire and over what period of time?

Whatever you destination, a plan of attack and a step by step, turn by turn map of how to get there is what you need. You need to make sure your route is sound and that you take the best roads – that you use the best vehicle to minimize costs, save on taxes and protect yourself from the others out there.

The Atlanta REIA Commercial & Multi-Family Real Estate Group is an educational, networking and call to action subgroup, led by Steve Brown and Bill Ham that is designed to help real estate investors take their investments to the next level by successfully investing in commercial real estate. You will meet the experts and the behind the scenes players in the game of commercial real estate investing. Come join us and learn to invest in commercial real estate for fun and extreme profits.

The group meets on the 4th Thursday of each month from 11:30 AM to 1:00 PM at the 5 Seasons Brewing located at 5600 Roswell Rd (map). Please note that the Commercial & Multi-Family Real Estate Group meets just prior to the Have’s and Wants Meeting which is from 1:30 PM until 3:30 PM. So please come enjoy both of these back to back meetings and get the most out of your day!

The “Let’s Make A Deal” group is a subgroup of the Atlanta REIA led by Lynn Overall and Don DeRosa that now meets on the 2nd Monday of each month at 6PM at the Hudson Grille located at 6317 Roswell Rd in Sandy Springs, GA. The focus of the group is to take new investors through the entire process of repurposing distressed home. Each home is purchased by the group and is completed as a Joint Venture. An experienced rehab investor then leads the group through the rehab process. Risk of loss is mitigated through the use of a consistent system for rehabbing homes, and through the use of experienced contractors. Our goal is to purchase a new property at each of our meetings.

During the meeting, we will identify a property, hard or private money lender, and a contractor. We will finance the deal using a participating money lender, all of whom attend the meetings. Do not leave your checkbooks at home because we buy properties at each meeting.

The sponsors of the “Let’s Make A Deal” group have successfully repurposed homes in California, Texas, Georgia, and Florida. If you are a new investor looking to be a participant in a home rehab project, then this is definitely the group for you. Please keep in mind that everyone who attends “Let’s Make A Deal” is required to participate. The minimum size of the investment will be determined by the purchase price of the home presented at the meeting.

Come on out and check out the meeting. We would love to have you join our team! We are looking forward to learning and earning with you!
