Atlanta REIA Members Can Attend at No Charge. This month,

Jim BanksA rare exciting opportunity is coming your way on Monday, September 12th at the Atlanta REIA Main Meeting at the Doubletree Hotel Roswell located at 1075 Holcomb Bridge Rd, Roswell, GA where our special guest speaker will be “Mr Probate” Jim Banks. Jim will be showing us how to tap into a massive amount of available properties that we can purchase for up to 60% below market value that most people don’t even know about!

Did you know that there is a hidden market that is continually underserved and full of property that needs to be sold… from real estate to valuable personal belongings? There is an unpublished market with millions of available properties that haven’t been exposed to the general public yet, waiting to be bought at deep discounts. Investing in this hidden market is known as Probates Investing.

Probate is the governing process for the liquidation and distribution of a person’s assets to their heirs after they pass away. And just so you know, there is often no greater motivated seller than someone inheriting a probate property they don’t want and can’t afford to maintain from a thousand miles away!

At the meeting, Jim is going to show you how to build your own lucrative probate business, how to find properties and other personal items worth buying, best practices for buying and selling, and how to maximize your profits for big gains. Jim will equip you with all the tools you to make probate investing success. Jim will show you:

  • Why Probate Real Estate Investing is incredibly profitable
  • How to Find Probate Properties BEFORE they are advertised to competitors
  • How A Probate Investor Can cut costs and bring closure to the estate sooner
  • How you can beat brokers before they even know about the property
  • How you can become a valuable asset to the settlement of the estate and make a profit
  • How to market to these motivated sellers
  • What to say to these motivated sellers once you find them
  • How to buy probates up to 60% below fair market value
  • And much, much more!

Stop competing with average investors over the same properties and learn how to tap into this lucrative market that will never ever run dry. TAKE ACTION, RSVP for this Meeting Now and join us and learn the secrets of buying deeply discounted probate properties for massive profits!

As always, Atlanta REIA Members can attend the event at no charge and Non-Members can Register Online for $20 or pay $25.00 at the door. Be sure to bring your business cards and flyers and join us for an evening of real estate deals, vendors, networking, education and fun! See you there!

Sept 12th Meeting Before the Meeting
with Don DeRosa

Don DeRosaAre you spending money on marketing and not getting any deals? Are you able to take any lead and make a deal out of it? Do you know how to make multiple offers that actually get accepted? Are you using technology to your advantage? If the answer is “NO” to these questions then you MUST attend this subgroup meeting.

Would you like to learn how to structure deals so you can buy houses with little or none of your own cash and none of your own credit? 15 hours a week… That’s all you need! Imagine… taking any seller lead and being able to create a winning deal out of it… Making thousands of dollars where you thought there were none. No more wasted marketing dollars. No more wasted phone calls. No more wasted time.

Join Don DeRosa at the High Tech Home Buying Creative Deal Structuring Subgroup on Monday, September 12th from 5PM to 6PM at the Atlanta REIA Main Meeting at the Doubletree where he will be teaching about a wide variety of topics each month. Don will teach you about the state-of-the-art tools and techniques you’ll use to evaluate deals and figure out how to make them work – so you can work less and spend more time where you want, when you want and with whom you want.

Some topics Don will be teaching about include:

  • Using Apps on your iPad or other mobile device to evaluate deals on the go
  • Creative Techniques such as Wrap Around Mortgages, Sandwich Lease Options, Subject-To, Seller Financing, and more
  • How to be a transaction engineer.
  • How to be a problem solver.
  • And so much more…

Bring your deals and Don will walk through them step-by-step and he’ll show you how to easily evaluate the lead, determine your exit strategy, structure the deal, negotiate with the seller, and get the paperwork done in a snap.

Its an amazing time to be a real estate investor. Don’t look back 5 years from now and wish you had acted. Learn how to buy right… Learn to Make More and Work Less, Right Now!

New Date, Time & Location!

Don DeRosaLynn OverallThe “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 3rd Thursday of each month at 6:30PM at 5 Seasons Brewing, 5600 Roswell Rd, Sandy Springs, GA. The focus of the group is to take new investors through the entire process of repurposing distressed home.

We are no longer asking you to bring your checkbook, however you will be disappointed if you don’t because these deals will be purchased by someone, and you will have the first opportunity to profit from them.

Funding for these deals will be provided by our sponsors, Angel Oak Prime Bridge & Barnett Capital. Each group desiring to participate in the deal will form an LLC, identify member responsibilities, open an operational bank account and fund holding costs for the deal and execute a purchase contract for the property. Your projects will be overseen by a professional engineer and an experienced rehab investor.

Our goal is to have fun, make a profit and learn how to properly rehab a property. We will also provide the buyer and the neighborhood with homes that are shining examples of what we, as investors, do for the economy and the community.

Bring your checkbook or not. Either way, you will walk away from this meeting with knowledge and tools to help you become a better investor.

No less than three properties will be presented at the meeting. Each will meet the Angel Oak 65% or 100% financing criteria. Come join us and do your first rehab!

Don DeRosaAre you spending money on marketing and not getting any deals? Are you able to take any lead and make a deal out of it? Do you know how to make multiple offers that actually get accepted? Are you using technology to your advantage? If the answer is “NO” to these questions then you MUST attend this subgroup meeting.

Would you like to learn how to structure deals so you can buy houses with little or none of your own cash and none of your own credit? 15 hours a week… That’s all you need! Imagine… taking any seller lead and being able to create a winning deal out of it… Making thousands of dollars where you thought there were none. No more wasted marketing dollars. No more wasted phone calls. No more wasted time.

Join Don DeRosa at the High Tech Home Buying Creative Deal Structuring Subgroup on Monday, August 1st from 5PM to 6PM at the Atlanta REIA Main Meeting at the Doubletree where he will be teaching about a wide variety of topics each month. Don will teach you about the state-of-the-art tools and techniques you’ll use to evaluate deals and figure out how to make them work – so you can work less and spend more time where you want, when you want and with whom you want.

Some topics Don will be teaching about include:

  • Using Apps on your iPad or other mobile device to evaluate deals on the go
  • Creative Techniques such as Wrap Around Mortgages, Sandwich Lease Options, Subject-To, Seller Financing, and more
  • How to be a transaction engineer.
  • How to be a problem solver.
  • And so much more…

Bring your deals and Don will walk through them step-by-step and he’ll show you how to easily evaluate the lead, determine your exit strategy, structure the deal, negotiate with the seller, and get the paperwork done in a snap.

Its an amazing time to be a real estate investor. Don’t look back 5 years from now and wish you had acted. Learn how to buy right… Learn to Make More and Work Less, Right Now!
