Jeff will teach you…

• How to run your business efficiently
• How to have SMART GOALS
• How to create Strategies and Tactics to keep you on track to reach those goals
• And much, much, more…

With more than 25 years of experience building and leading corporate teams in the financial industry under his belt, Jeff brings a passion like no other to the practice he formed in 2008 as a Public Speaker and Business Coach with ActionCOACH.

Jeff has found that a great many smart people are unable to find their way to true success. While their innate or developed skills and talents have carried them to a point of significant achievement, they still can’t quite reach that golden ring.

By helping them define and develop processes, systems, and an infrastructure to support their goals, Jeff assists clients in closing that final gap, often reaching culmination in both their professional and personal life.

We look forward to seeing you at the meeting!

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!
