This month’s meeting will be held at property being rehabbed by Dee Adewunmi located at 1085 White Oak Ave SW, Atlanta, GA.
This property is located in the Oakland Historic neighborhood. It is an English Vernacular revival Tudor house built in 1940 that was 3 bedroom, 1 bath, 1013 sqft home (see Original photo). Prior to Dee acquiring the property, the existing structure was heavily altered by a previous investor without the required permits and the project was abandoned (see Before photo). Dee purchased the property as-is in March 2019 through the FMLS.
The City of Atlanta wants the house to be restored to this English Vernacular Revival style character (see Original photo). Upon completion, the home will be 4 bedrooms (2 master suites on 2nd floor) with 3 ensuite bathrooms and about 1900 sqft. There are 2 story high vaulted ceilings with an all open concept. Dee even replaced the fire chimney which was destroyed by tree and previous investor.
The house is about 85% complete. Dee has had the interior doors and trim installed. She is working on kitchen cabinets this week and should have the interior painted by the time of our visit. So RSVP Now and come check out Dee’s 2nd major historical rehab project!

How to Raise Private Money
with Don DeRosa
There are three basic reasons businesses fail, Management, marketing and money. During this month’s meeting I will be showing you how to find all the money you need from people sitting right next to you when you did didn’t even know it.
During this meeting, I’m going to show you that four out of every 10 people you meet have the potential to be your private lender even though you don’t even realize it.
I will discuss the “Do’s and Don’ts” of borrowing money from private individuals. Often times you hear people say “you don’t need money to buy real estate” and although this is true, the reality is that it is so much easier with money.
So, if you’re interested in finding out how you can find all the private lenders you can get your hands on, then be sure to attend this session. Here’s just a few of the things that I will discuss…
- How to create an elevator speech
- What to say and what not to say to Potential private lenders
- How to structure of them
- How to find them with a few simple questions
These are just a few of the questions I will be answering, so please come out and join me at 5PM if you want to learn how to get private individuals to lend you money to fund your deals.

One thing I know for sure, real estate markets come, and they go. At times they get hot, and other times they cool off in every area of the country. Over the 40 years I’ve been in the business I have seen the market conditions change numerous times. One thing I’ve learned over the years is, depending on how you buy properties makes a vast difference of how much profit you make from the deals you do.
On Monday, June 10th, I will be sharing what I have learned why slow markets and economic conditions never will be a factor to your business ever again. I will be sharing the “7” reasons why most investors are not making the kind of money they should be making. I know not everyone suffers from all of the “7” issues, but I will guarantee everyone is suffering from one or more of these simple to change matters. Once you are aware of what is challenging your success, it will be much easier to maximize your profits in your real estate business.
Let Me Ask You – Which Type of Investor Are You?
- Thinking About Becoming a Real Estate Investor but Don’t Know How to Get Started?
- Already an Investor Who Would Like to Be More Effective Finding and Buying More Properties?
- Already Successful as An Investor Who Wants to Move to the Next Level?
Whichever Box You Checked You Don’t Want to Miss Hearing Me Monday Evening! At the Meeting, I Will Share With You:
- Those “7” Reasons Why Most Investors Fail Today. Do You Suffer From Any of These Issues?
- Why Market Conditions and Economic Cycles No Longer Need to Have An Effect On the Way, You Do Your Real Estate Business.
- How to Quickly Recognize Which Deals are Money Makers and Which Are Money Pits.
- Immediately Recognize the Highest and Best Use of Each Property to Maximize Profits.
- Where to Find Property Your Competition Have No Idea Are Available.
- How to Structure Offers Giving the Seller What They Want, and You Get What You Want. It’s All In the Numbers.
- I Will Show You How to Quickly Eliminate Your Competition. They Won’t Have a Clue What You Are Doing.
- Why You Won’t Need Money or Good Credit to Buy Real Estate.
- You Can Use a Little Known technique to Give the Seller Quick Cash You Don’t Have Without the Need to Borrow.
- How to Create the Perfect Wholesale/Flip Deals.
- How You Can Create Huge Profits Without Having Property Ownership.
- Answers to your vacation rentals questions and more!
I will be showing everyone who attends Monday, June 10th a new strategy I have never seen anyone else teach that I have been using for years that has given me the ability to do deals others can’t. With this one idea can increase your bottom line $100,000 or more every year. You don’t want to miss this technique. I have decided to share with all who want to make more money and do more deals.
Be Sure to join me June 10th, and again Saturday, June 15th for a full day Creative Deal Structuring Workshop where I will be sharing the ideas very few investors use In today’s market.
So, bring a notepad, bring a friend, and get to this meeting since it could dramatically affect your monthly cash flow and real estate investing business forever! RSVP NOW & DON’T MISS IT!

with Don DeRosa
Hey folks, Don DeRosa here… I’d like to personally invite you to kick off the monthly Atlanta REIA Meeting with me on June 10th at 5PM Sharp.
At this special session on “Buying Houses Subject-To” I will show you how to buy your next 1) personal residence, 2) long term rental or 3) short term vacation rental without having use your own cash or cred or having to go to the bank for a loan.
Many people believe that stocks and bonds are the way to wealth in America. Many people also believe that you have to buy multiple properties a month to be successful in real estate. Well, I am going to show you how neither of those two statements are true.
I’m going to show you how quality beats quantity every time. At the meeting before the meeting I am going to show you why real estate is the IDEAL investment strategy to create wealth hands down.
I will show you how to build a pretty healthy retirement nest egg on only a few properties. I will share how buying properties using other people’s money and other people’s credit is the only way to go.
You will learn:
- Why income producing properties are SO important
- How real estate is the one true tax shelter
- How simply utilizing TIME is the BEST way to creating wealth
- How to retire wealthy simply buy walking to the mailbox every month
- How to use small amounts of cash ( or none at all ) to buy all the properties you want and need.
Join me at 5PM SHARP on Monday June 10th and learn arguably the BEST wealth building technique on the planet!

with Ramon Tookes
Join us at the Beginning Investors Group (BIG) on Monday, June 17th at 6:30PM at the Hudson Grille in Sandy Springs located at 6317 Roswell Rd in Sandy Springs with Ramon Tookes on “Learning the Steps to Successfully Managing Repairs & Renovations!”
One common source of angst among new real estate investors is dealing with contractors and fear of the actual flip! The two most common methods are to 1) hire a General Contractor or 2) manage your own rehabs. Another 3rd viable alternative is to hire a Project Manager to be your eyes and ears for your rehab.
No matter what method you choose, every single rehab requires some level of day-to-day management. But once you define and develop a system that works for you, the fear will dissipate and you will feel confident with this highly profitable investment strategy.
Come join seasoned 24+ year investor, author, coach and wealth builder, Ramon Tookes at the Beginning Investors Group and learn how to:
- Interview and hire a General Contractor (GC) and sub-contractors
- Manage the schedule
- Manage the budget
- Find and negotiate bids
- Maintain Quality of the Rehab
- Procure Materials
- Answers to Your Questions and More!

Onsite Renovation Group Meets June 18 at Georgette Black’s Massive Rehab Project

Tues, June 18th at NOON

Atlanta Area Renovation Projects
Please join us on Tuesday, June 18th at NOON for the Atlanta REIA Onsite Renovation Group (ORG) to learn all about finding, funding, fixing and flipping houses (or holding) for big profits right here in the metro Atlanta area. This month’s meeting will be held at property being rehabbed by Georgette Black located at 2072 Dekalb Ave NE, Atlanta, GA.
This is Georgette’s first rehab project. She purchased this home as a 1950’s cottage that was only 963 sqft with 2 bedrooms, 1 bath and in terrible condition in the Great Lake Clair Neighborhood. The plot she purchased was part of 7 being sold and this was actually split into 2 plots and she purchased the larger of the two with the house on it.
Because the home was in such terrible shape, Georgette had to do a complete rehab and tear the house down to the foundation. She has turned it into a 4 bedroom, 3.5 bath, 3500 sqft home with a 2 car garage. It has a huge front porch, a large rear deck and an open floor plan throughout.
The house should be completed and staged by the time we visit the property on June 18th. So RSVP Now and come check out this MASSIVE Rehab project being completed by a 1st time rehabber!
The Atlanta REIA Onsite Renovation Group (ORG) is an educational and networking group led by Dustin Griffin and Don DeRosa that focuses on the acquisition, renovation and retail resale (fix and flip) of single family residential homes. The purpose of the group is to allow both new and experienced rehabbers and investors to meet, network and share knowledge and experience with “hands on” access to real property.
