Jay ConnerJoin us Monday, October 3rd at 5PM at the Atlanta REIA Main Meeting at the Doubletree Hotel Roswell located at 1075 Holcomb Bridge Rd, Roswell, GA where real estate and private money expert Jay Conner will teach you “Where to Get the Money Now” to fund all of your real estate deals.

Jay will teach you how he turned his real estate investing business into a seven figure money making machine in less than 2 years using a simple, step-by-step system that enabled him to raise $2,150,000 in less than 90 Days.

Jay’s specialty is acquiring private money for his renovation projects. And whether you know it or not, the difference between the rich and the just getting by in today’s real estate market.is “Private Money”. A large part of Jay’s business is based on people putting up the money to make a loan so he can buy all the ugly houses out there that need renovated. Jay always gets a big check when he buys a property and doesn’t even make monthly payments on his loans! It is possible… come find out how!

Is your Real Estate Business Suffering because of any of these problems?

  • Short on cash and can’t do deals?
  • Don’t know where or how to get the cash?
  • Feel sick because you lost out on a great deal and watched another investor with the money pocket your profits?
  • Lack the confidence to raise money?
  • Frustrated and feel stuck?

If you answered “YES!” to any of the above questions, and if you’re even remotely interested in transforming your real estate investing from a hobby to a thriving 6-Figure business that churns out thousands of dollars in passive income month after month, this may be the most important meeting you’ve attended all year!

All this is happening at the Atlanta REIA main meeting on Monday, October 3rd at 5PM at the Doubletree Hotel Roswell located at 1075 Holcomb Bridge Rd, Roswell, GA.

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!

Atlanta REIA Wild Wild West
Wholesalers Roundup
at Wild West Group!

With Rock Shukoor, Peter
Vekselman & Vince Ohasiligwo

September 26th @ 6:30PM, Cherokee Cattle Company,
2710 Canton Rd, Marietta, GA

No Charge for Members. Guests Pay $10 at the Door.

Rock Shukoor, Peter Vekselman & Vince OhasiligwoDo you want to get started in Real Estate Investing? Wholesaling is a great way to get started since it’s a win-win-win deal for all those involved. You find an unwanted property, put it under contract to buy from the seller, then sell it immediately to a cash buyer. The seller gets rid of an unwanted property that needs repairs, and the buyer gets a property that they can fix and flip or rent out. The money you make in the middle between your buy price and your sales price is a nice paycheck for you!

Wholesaling is a great way to generate quick cash while learning today’s highly competitive real estate market, making contacts in the business, and building your cash buyers list. You can get started without using your credit, you don’t need a lot of cash, and you won’t take big risks when you do it right. Build a good name for yourself as a wholesaler, and you’ll have no shortage of cash buyers eagerly waiting to buy your good deals!

Join us this month at the Wild West Real Estate Event as we excitedly bring you a powerful panel of very mature, knowledgeable, seasoned investors who are ACTIVELY wholesaling single family houses in the Atlanta market, right here, right NOW! The Panel will be composed of Rock Shukoor, Peter Vekselman and Vince Ohasiligwo and is being hosted by Leslie Mathis.

If quick cash with little risk sounds great to you, then you definitely want to attend the Wild West Meeting this month!

What you will learn:

  • Where to find wholesale deals
  • What formulas to use to tell if a house is a deal or not
  • Where to find cash buyers
  • How the closing attorney you use can make or break your deal
  • And Much, Much More…

We’re taking questions ahead of the event, so email them to Leslie at LeslieMathisMentor@gmail.com from your cell phone right now!

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!
