When you find a seller with a real estate problem that you can’t solve by buying for cash at a discount, Creative Deal Structuring gives you many more tools in your toolbox for you to solve their problem…giving YOU more ways to PROFIT! Leslie will share with you those tools.
You’ll learn:
- 4 Different Deal Structures
- What you must get from your motivated sellers to structure deals that will solve their problems
- 3 Ways You Can Make A Profit Using Creative Deal Structures
- And answers to your questions and much more!
Leslie began her real estate career when she found herself broke and living in her parents garage after following the traditional path of “get a degree (she got two), get a job, and live the American Dream” failed her. With no money and no cred, she had to find a way out of her situation. When she was introduced to buying real estate without using her own money or cred, she embraced Creative Deal Structuring with a passion and was able to leave her job shortly thereafter. Leslie has never looked back, using Creative Deal Structuring to build financial freedom for herself. She wants you to know that you can do it too!
