Access to money is a key component in the success of a real estate investor. The more access you have, the more opportunities that will be available to you. Come out this month to the Beginning Investors Group (BIG), where we are excited to have our good friends Mark and Anne Lackey as our special guest speakers. The Lackeys have raised close to a million dollars using a proven method that they will share with us. The meeting will take place on Monday, July 20th at 6:30PM at Hudson Grille located at 6317 Roswell Rd in Sandy Springs.

Finding private money is a huge challenge for many investors. Banks are generally not too helpful to investors, especially full-time investors who don’t have high earning full time J-O-Bs. Many sellers want cash, which leaves you, the investor, stuck trying to make deals work without access to the funds. By implementing the steps that the Lackey’s will teach you, your business will be able to take off to new heights!

Mark and Anne will show you…

• 5 ways to fund your deals without using your own cash or credit
• How to find private money lenders
• A proven strategy to ask for the funds you need for your deals
• An overview of all the necessary paperwork you will need

Come prepared to roll up your sleeves and start working on your private money pitch. This will be great meeting where you will gain confidence in your ability to find and secure private funds. Don’t miss it!

Mark and Anne Lackey are well known around Atlanta and across the nation as Real Estate Investors, Authors, Speakers and Educators as well as REALTORs. They coach and train hundreds of US and Canadians to a successful real estate career. Mark and Anne have written multiple Best Selling books and developed multiple Educational Programs and systems for many areas of Real Estate Investing.

Today, Mark and Anne control and manage over $3M in passive income producing residential properties, (aka rentals) in their own portfolio, and manage $23M of income producing properties for other investors. Each year they find, fix-up and flip multiple properties for profit and have transacted over $35M in real estate over the past 5 years alone. They operate multiple businesses and they do everything together.

See you at the meeting!

This month at the Beginning Investors Group (BIG), we are excited to have our good friend and local real estate investing expert, Don DeRosa, as our special guest speaker. Don will be teaching us the basics of rehabbing houses for big profits. The meeting will take place on Monday, June 15th at 6:30PM at Hudson Grille located at 6317 Roswell Rd in Sandy Springs.

Are you new to real estate and the thought of purchasing an ugly house that needs lots of work terrifies you? Maybe the thought of a rehab is exciting to you, but you haven’t actually followed through with it yet because you fear that you do not have enough knowledge about funding and fixing houses to take that plunge. Rehabbing houses can mean BIG PAYCHECKS, but they can also come with VERY EXPENSIVE LESSONS if you don’t know what you are doing.

Please join us this month at BIG as Don helps to take away the guesswork behind what it takes to quickly and profitably rehab houses.

At the meeting, Don will teach us…

• What to look for in a rehab property
• How to evaluate what rehab is needed in a property during your pre-purchase inspection
• How to determine what you should fix and what you should not
• Where you can get the biggest “bang for your buck”
• How to estimate repair costs
• Should you do the repair yourself or hire someone else to do it for you?
• How to pick a good contractor
• And much, much more!

Don DeRosa has successfully completed many of his own rehab projects. He is also an author, teacher, coach, and national speaker. Don has trained thousands of new and experienced investors alike and helped them build their wealth in real estate. Don’t miss this opportunity to learn from an expert.

And that’s just the beginning….Don will be teaching a 2 Day Rehabbing 101 Workshop in July where he will teach you much more detailed information about rehabbing and even take you out to SHOW you some rehab projects in progress. This is an amazing opportunity to get some practical, HANDS-ON education into how to successfully rehab houses.

We look forward to seeing you at the meeting!

Do you think that investors find their deals through luck? With St. Patrick’s Day upon us and lots of symbols in the air about luck, there are some that really do believe that finding a deal is all about luck. Let Don DeRosa show you how to create that “luck” any day of the year. We will have time to examine two leads and determine if they are a deal or a dud. Please bring us leads that you are working on, we will randomly choose them, and let Don show you if there is in fact a pot of gold at the end of that rainbow!

After the conclusion of the BIG event (after 9:00 PM), we will be hanging out at the Hudson Grille for Late Nite Networking also known as the “Meeting After the Meeting”.

New investors have many questions. Questions that could be used as an excuse to not make a move to do the deal. You have found what you believe is a winner. The numbers look good, it’s in a nice neighborhood with great schools. What may happen next is where a lot of new investors choke. How do you make the offer? What is a good offer? What do you say? Is it a contract? What should be in it? Is there a template or “offer form”?

If you want to know how to construct an acceptable offer, then join us at the Beginning Investors Group (BIG) on Monday, January 19th, at 6:00PM at Hudson Grille located at 6317 Roswell Rd in Sandy Springs and let Regina Sitterley, a successful, dynamic local investor, show you how she creates her offers and gets them converted into contracts!

As a new real estate investor, you might not realize it yet, but you will go through three distinct stages of your real estate investing career if you stick it out to the very end.

There is the beginner stage when you need cash now like you need oxygen to breath. Next is the intermediate stage when you start to build your cash flow and residual income and really start to crank things up. And finally there is the final stage when you become an “Ender” and are able to retire and comfortably live off your investments. Each of these stages require different amounts of time, energy, resources and education to master.

Join us at the Beginning Investors Group (BIG) on Monday, November 17th, at 6:00PM at Hudson Grille located at 6317 Roswell Rd in Sandy Springs where you will hear from four dynamic, successful investors in the different stages of their investing career. Dorsie Boddiford, Kim Cook, Regina Sitterley and Leslie Mathis will share with you their history, their goals, and give you insights on how to be successful during each stage. This is your opportunity to hear from investors you don’t normally get to hear from in this format who truly have valuable first hand insights into the different stages of their investing careers. You will be able to ask them questions about the challenges they have faced and have succeeded.

Many new investors may not realize that over the time of their investing life, they will move through various stages of their career. There is the beginning investor (or newbie), the intermediate, and the mature investor. Each of these stages require different mindsets and goals.

We will also have a Creative Deal Structuring interactive session with Russ Hiner and he and Rock Shukoor will be telling you about their upcoming “Ugly House Boot Camp – Part 1: Wholesaling” 3 Day Intensive Training on Nov 21st – 23rd at the Atlanta REIA Office in Buford, GA!

After the conclusion of the Atlanta REIA BIG Meeting (after 9:00 PM), we will be hanging out at the Hudson Grill for Late Nite Networking also known as the “Meeting After the Meeting”.

Many beginning real estate investors are often thwarted by trying to determine if an investment opportunity is a “Deal” or “No Deal”. Some new investors jump on every potential deal that comes along because they are afraid to let one get away. Others can’t seem to “pull the trigger” on a deal because they’re afraid to make a mistake. All new investors face the same challenge: How do you know if you’re looking at a good deal or not?

First of all, what could be a good deal for one investor might not be for another. Establishing your personal buying goals and criteria will help eliminate “No Deals” from your consideration quickly. After that, it’s a matter of knowing how to “size up” a good deal by knowing what to measure and how to calculate your potential profits and expenses.

On Monday, September 15th at the Beginning Investors Group (BIG), we want you to Bring YOUR LEADS (Download Lead Sheet) where Don DeRosa, Russ Hiner, Rock Shukoor, Gordon Catts & Dustin Griffin will pre-screen and analyze them, construct a few potential offers, and call the Sellers and get you an appointment and/or make deals on the spot (time and noise permitting of course).

Whether you’re a novice or an experienced user of hand held devices such as smart phones and tablets, chances are your device will do a lot more than you know. If you would like to learn to leverage the power of your handheld technology, Don DeRosa has some tips and tricks that he would like to share with you that will make your real estate investing business a lot more easier and lot more profitable.

Using an iPad or smartphone effectively isn’t always intuitive as we would like it to be. They often require training, patience, and practice. But mastering these digital devices requires willingness – the willingness to ask lots of questions even if you think they’re really dumb. The fact is, changes in technology have given us productivity potential that was unimaginable 20 years ago. And like it or not, smart devices are here to stay and are likely to only increase in their complexity. And whether you keep up with this technology or fall behind, your competitors are embracing these devices and are raising the bar for you as well.

If you want to gain the cutting edge you need to succeed, RSVP for BIG, bring your smart phone and/or tablet and join us at the Hudson Grille on Monday, Aug 18th at 6:00PM at Hudson Grille located at 6317 Roswell Rd in Sandy Springs and let national speaker, mentor and active real estate investor Don DeRosa show you how to better leverage your smart devices.

At the meeting, you will learn:

• Don’s favorite apps to research properties and put them under contract
• How to automate your investing as much as possible
• Evaluate properties with a few taps
• And Much, Much More!

Don says, “What a difference my iPad and iPhone have made on my personal life and my real estate investing business. They have allowed me to load my entire life into one small device. My iPad can communicate with my staff, manage my expenses, and give me directions to the next house. It can find neighborhood comps, and take high-quality pictures and video. It can “park” pictures or contracts or handwritten notes in the cloud, so my staff and I can both get to them easily. It can keep my calendar and tell me when I need to be at my son’s hockey game. And most importantly, it can save me enough time to be at that game.”

Whether you are just starting out or you’re a seasoned pro, if you want to take your investing to the next level, RSVP NOW and DO NOT MISS this event!
