“Hello everyone! The market is shifting quickly, and with millions of people struggling to make ends meet, it’s only a matter of time before we see a significant slowdown. Perhaps you’re already seeing it now. Homes sitting on the marketon the market longer, prices will drop, and investors will need alternative ways to sell when the traditional methods start to fade. But here’s the good news—these changes create new opportunities for those who are ready to recognize them.

While we’re not in a full-blown buyer’s market yet, history shows it’s inevitable. Now is the time to prepare yourself by learning non-traditional selling and renovation techniques to maximize your profits and minimize your risk.

The days of making quick, full-price sales with a simple cosmetic rehab are fading. That’s why it’s crucial to learn these alternative strategies before you need them. In this session, I’m bringing back tried-and-true methods that haven’t been used as much recently, but could be your secret weapon in the coming market shift.

If you’re someone who wants to stay ahead of the curve and be ready to thrive in a declining market, then this presentation is a must. Here’s what we’ll cover:

• The 9 reasons houses don’t sell and how to avoid them
• How to sell houses without realtors to maximize profits
• Creative financing techniques like owner financing, lease purchasing, and renting for higher returns
• How to add 20% more profit to every deal and sell faster
• Preparing your home to sell in a challenging market for quick results
• Maximizing exposure in a slow market to get your property noticed
• Renovation strategies for a stale or declining market
• Why staging is critical and what it should look like in today’s market
• Negotiating without an agent for maximum profit
• Choosing the right exit strategy to fit your specific deal

By the end of this webinar, you’ll walk away with the tools and knowledge to sell houses fast, no matter what the market looks like. Remember: You make your money when you buy, but you get paid when you sell. Join me as we dive into the strategies that will help you get paid fast, even in a challenging market!” REGISTER NOW

These common challenges above can happen to anyone! But this doesn’t have to happen for you anymore. Once you learn the “exclusive” principles, practices, & strategies you can use to quickly overcome what is standing in your way.

So Register for the Webinar below and join the fun while I share these tactics that the world’s best and most successful entrepreneurs use to get out of the “rat race and on the fast track” of life.

It has been a minute (18 years) since I have been on the public stage. I still recall, a well known professional speaker referred to me as, “The Steak and Potato and not the Sizzle”! I will admit, I harbored a resentment. Today, because of a life changing spiritual retreat experience, I have learned to surrender, lean into it and that being VULNERABLE IS A STRENGTH TO BE EMBRACED! Especially, if I authentically want to connect with you, make an impact and help you achieve YOUR SUCCESS!

My higher power, created me with the DNA of an Engineer, a Teacher, a Trusted Advisor. My philosophy is simple, “Don’t accept your life. Lead your Life”. My mission is to learn, apply, and teach “what works” to help the person, “I” use to be… With that said, we offer specialized training and coaching you wish you had back then to grow your business or fulfill your calling, easier, faster, cheaper and without so much struggle.

Find Your Next Opportunity In The Next 88 Days, or Marco Is Totally Screwed!

Be sure to RSVP Now and Join Us for our next Atlanta REIA Main Meeting & Vendor Tradeshow on Monday, July 8th from 5:30PM-9PM at the City of Light located at 3125 Presidential Pkwy, Atlanta, GA with our special guest speaker, Marco Kozlowski, who will be teaching you how to generate MASSIVE CASHFLOW by WORKING ONCE and GETTING PAID FOREVER!

Would you like to replace your active income with passive income? In this market? With these interest rates? With an election coming up and a war happening? And my car needs repairs? And I’m hungry and need groceries!

While everyone else is struggling to find deals and access capital… Marco and his tribe are licking their chops.

This unique system helps you find and negotiate massive discounts from motivated sellers that are easy to find (if you just know where to look)… with no marketing costs, no direct mail, no websites, no phone calls, no drama.

If you want to be on the active side and find deals with monstrous returns, you’re gonna love this presentation.

If you’re lazy and just want to have your money work harder for you than you ever did for it, Bring. Your. Depends*. (that’s an adult diaper, in case you’re a young whipper-snapper under 90). *Marco made me say that, he insists on having fun in everything he does – you’re gonna love him.).

Once you join Marco’s tribe, you’re uniquely positioned with specialized knowledge and connections that only the super-rich and elite typically have.

Marco’s values are simple: serving others at the highest level makes you wealthy.

You will discover:

• How to find sellers that need help
• Get access to “Wall Street Money” that needs to be used immediately
• Know where to find vetted, top quality, dependable property management to take care of your properties with a service-forward attitude (I know if you’ve had a bad experience, all of those words should never be together when it comes to property management… but it’s now solved)
• And a few other surprises that will put a smile on any grumpy face…

If you love serving people and making money doing it, don’t miss this! RSVP Now!

Atlanta REIA Members Can Attend for no charge.
Guests Can RSVP Online Now for $20 or Pay $25 at the Door.
