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.

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.

Let’s Make a Deal Meets on April 11, 2016
Posted on April 11, 2016 by
The “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 2nd Monday of each month at 6PM at the Hudson Grille located at 6317 Roswell Rd in Sandy Springs, GA. The focus of the group is to take new investors through the entire process of repurposing distressed home. Each home is purchased by the group and is completed as a Joint Venture. An experienced rehab investor then leads the group through the rehab process. Risk of loss is mitigated through the use of a consistent system for rehabbing homes, and through the use of experienced contractors. Our goal is to purchase a new property at each of our meetings.
During the meeting, we will identify a property, hard or private money lender, and a contractor. We will finance the deal using a participating money lender, all of whom attend the meetings. Do not leave your checkbooks at home because we buy properties at each meeting.
The sponsors of the “Let’s Make A Deal” group have successfully repurposed homes in California, Texas, Georgia, and Florida. If you are a new investor looking to be a participant in a home rehab project, then this is definitely the group for you. Please keep in mind that everyone who attends “Let’s Make A Deal” is required to participate. The minimum size of the investment will be determined by the purchase price of the home presented at the meeting.
Come on out and check out the meeting. We would love to have you join our team! We are looking forward to learning and earning with you!

Our next All Inclusive Marketing (AIM) Group Meeting is Wednesday, April 13th at 7:00PM at the Hudson Grille located at 6317 Roswell Rd in Sandy Springs.
Do you have all the leads you could ever need?
Do you want to lean how to find deals that others are looking for and cannot find?
Marketing has been one of my strong suites and I am very proud of the results I have produced over the years from most of my campaigns. It is time to showcase my guerrilla marketing skills and show you how to find at least one deal a day.
Yes, I said ONE deal a day. I will show you 7 ways to find 7 deals in 7 days, and find all the deals you need as well.
I will be sharing with you everything you need to know about how to find deals quickly and with using very little money, if any at all. If you have a phone and have access to a computer, you are in business.
I will explain the whole process: the small but vital details, where to find deals, how to find the sellers and how to stay focused in order to find one deal a day.
Here are the items I will share with you:
- Where to find deals
- How to sell them in a flash
- What market to choose
- Where to get the list of prospects
- What kind of properties to focus on
- Where to get the money from for these deals (Only if you need them)
- How to partner with me to use a list of over 6,000 cash buyers
- And much, much more
This is a must attend event! We will meet at our usual location at the Hudson Grille at 7:00PM and be there until 9:00PM and then hang out and have our Late Nite Networking. I look forward to seeing you at the meeting!
