Are You A New Investor Who Doesn’t Know Where To Start? Or, An Old Salt Who Can’t Find Deals – Or You Can’t Find Cheap Enough Money to Buy Properties?

The Truth is many investors only know one way to buy property… with Cash. And now that banks are not lending to just anyone, where do investors turn? The investor today is likely dead in the water unless they know how to Buy with Creative Owner Financing and learn how to Sell with Creative Owner Financing. Larry Harbolt has over 30-plus years of experience doing just that. That is why he has been called the Master at teaching how to buy houses with No Money and No Credit using Creative Owner Financing.

Larry will be with us at our Atlanta REIA Main Monthly Meeting on June 4th and again for a full-day Saturday Training Workshop on June 9th for what could prove to be a career changing and life altering event for you, your family and your business.

How would you like to be able to buy 3 to 6 properties a month without using your own credit or any real money? What would that do for your lifestyle if you could churn out 5, 10 to 25 houses a year making money – helping others get started? All it takes is the proper training and the dedication to get the job done. That is exactly what Larry will do for you. Larry is going to show you how to:

• Learn How to Wholesale at Lightning Speed = Pay off Debts & Stable Cash Flow!
• Learn How to Buy Properties Without Banks! = No Credit and No Money
• Learn How to Become Wealthy Owning Properties That Are Paid Off in 8.3 Years!

How can you sell a house before you’ve ever purchased it? Well technically you can’t since you don’t own or control it yet, but the point is the property can be as “good as sold” before you ever buy it by having a ready, willing and able buyer already lined up and ready to go. Perhaps you’ve been hearing a lot of buzz lately about “reverse wholesaling” lately. It is really nothing new… it just means finding the buyer first and then finding the buyer a house rather than finding a house first, putting it under contract and then finding a buyer. Basically your buyer(s) tell you what the type of property they are looking for and you go find it for them. This makes sense right?

A big part of having the house “sold” before you buy is having an active buyers list of ready, willing and able buyers such as wholesalers, rehabbers, landlords, tenant/buyers, first time home buyers, etc. This month at the Beginning Investors Group (BIG), Rock Shukoor, leader of the I Love Marketing Group is going to share the online and offline tips and tricks that he uses to build his various buyers lists and keep them current.

Rock will teach you…

• How To build a buyers list using social media such as Facebook
• Why social media is important to an investor
• How to set up an automated system for your social media marketing
• The ins and outs of mobile media marketing

Social media is something 2 out of 3 people use today. Register to attend BIG on Wednesday May 23, to know how to put this powerful media to work for you. People with tickets will receive Rock’s E-book “Go Mobile Now or Die”. This is definitely a BIG meeting you don’t want to miss!

I look forward to seeing you at BIG on Wednesday May 23, 6:30pm at Chef Rob’s Caribbean Cafe at 5920 Roswell Rd in Sandy Springs.

Oprah Winfrey knows about a $40 Billion Dollar niche, and Russ Hiner has the Insider’s Secrets on how you can get your piece of the pie! Ever wondered what happens to the all of the money at a foreclosure sale when there’s a bid over the amount of the mortgage? What about when there’s an over bid at the tax sale-where do those funds go? Russ will show us where there’s money that’s FREE for the customer, and abundant for you.

Russ is speaking at Atlanta REIA West on coming Monday, April 21st. Here’s what you’ll learn at this very special evening:

• Where to find this $40 Billion Dollar niche that the Government is not entitled to.
• These funds are called “surplus funds”, “overages”, “excess funds”, even “unclaimed tax sale funds”.
• Why the Government calls it “escheating” when they take this money into their accounts!
• Gain an understanding of how this simple process works
• Where to find your share of this specialty niche
• Where and how to find who this money rightfully belongs to.
• How to talk to the prospects who are entitled to receive funds—so you can convert them into your customers
• Learn how to counsel your customers to give them their money, so you can get paid
• Learn how to build credibility for yourself… quickly
• Where to find the resources to get this done for you, so you can cash checks over and over again!
