Atlanta REIA Meeting Updates

Wed, May 7th @ 6:30 PM in Atlanta, GA
The Creative Deal Structuring Group
Learn All About Creative Deal Structuring with Russ Hiner

Russ HinerCome join us at CDS on Wednesday, May 7th at 6:30PM at Craftbuilt Offices located at 644 Antone St Suite 10, in Atlanta, where active real estate investor, mentor, coach and regular article contributor to Atlanta REIA’s The Profit, Russ Hiner, will show you 3 real examples of deals he has done using creative deal structuring. Creative Deal Structuring is used when the “normal” methods of buying properties will not work in a win-win situation.

As you should know, there is always more than one way to structure a real estate transaction. The way investors do it is with “Alternative Strategies”. Attendees will learn many of these alternative strategies and know when, where and how to apply them as needed. Applied wisely, you can acquire as many great investment properties as you can get your hands on without ever having to use your own cash or credit.

We will be looking at 3 real-life examples of properties I have done. You will also get a handout that will show you how to push, pull and squeeze to make a great deal! You will know there are great ways to make sure the owner gets what they need and put money into your pocket.

You will learn:

  • How To Look At Opportunities For Profit
  • How To Structure The Deals For Maximum Profit
  • How To Perform Quick Due Diligence
  • How To Do A Deal On An Upside Down House
  • Where You Can Push Negotiations
  • Any much, much more…

Door Fees are: Atlanta REIA members $3. Non-Members $5 per person. Seating is limited! Get there early!

CDS is a group about creative deal structuring and how to apply it in your everyday life and business. If you’re looking to obtain tools, get knowledge, and feel better about structuring real estate transactions for profit, then the Creative Deal Structuring Group is the right group for you.

CDS is led by Russ Hiner. Russ is currently focusing on the need for his experience in assisting people who face “the people business” issues everyday to get a resolution and “real life” solutions. Russ is also on of the leaders for the Atlanta Homebuyers Society. He is also a sought-after keynote speaker and trainer of sales and communication skills.

Please join us on the 1st Wednesday of each month at Craftbuilt Offices located at 644 Antone St. Suite 10 in Atlanta.

Where to Get the Money Now
with Jay Conner

Jay ConnerWe are excited to announce that real estate and private money expert Jay Conner is our keynote speaker for May. Jay will teach you “Where to Get the Money Now” to fund all of your real estate deals. He will teach you how he has built his buying and selling houses business into a seven figure income in less than 2 years on automatic using a simple, step-by-step system (that anyone can duplicate) which enabled him to raise $2,150,000 in less than 90 Days.

Jay is going to share the knowledge he’s acquired while creating a 7-Figure annual income in his own Real Estate Business with you! 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” into today’s Real Estate World…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 a property cheap and take advantage of the bank-owned real estate bonanza that’s going on out there right now. Jay always gets a big check when he buys a property and doesn’t even make monthly payments on his loans!

If you’re remotely interested in transforming your Real Estate Career from a frustrating 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 attend all year!

Join us at the meeting and Jay will teach you how to:

  1. Never miss out on a deal because you don’t have the money to fund it
  2. Step-by-step, how Jay raised $2,150,000 in 90 days
  3. Get an unlimited amount of funds for your deals
  4. Tap into Jay’s Private Lender Data Feed of over 8000 private lenders who are waiting to fund your deals
  5. Get 2 big checks every time you close a deal… one when you buy and one when you sell

FREE BONUSES JUST FOR ATTENDING: Jay will be giving away several bonuses for all those who attend:

Jay Conner' BookFree Gift #1: Jay’s National Best-Selling Book – “The New Masters of Real Estate: Getting Deals Done in the New Economy”: This book, packed with quality content, shows you how Jay built his house buying and selling business to a 7-Figure Income in less than 2 years on how he now runs it on autopilot!

Jay Conner' CDFree Gift #2: “The 5 Myths About Private Lending-Exposed!” CD: On this CD, Jay not only reveals 5 myths about private lending, but he will also tell you the amazing discovery he made that helped him raise $2,150,000 in private funds in less than 90 Days!

Jay Conner' VaultFree Gift #3: Jay Conner’s Secret “Unlock the Vault” Resource: Discover how to find Existing Private Lenders right in your local area who are ready and willing to fund your deals regardless of your credit or experience!

Learn to Cover Your Assets
& Avoid Unnecessary Risk!

with Special Guest, Attorney Doug Shaddix

Doug ShaddixYou’re working hard to put together a real estate portfolio to financially take care of you and your family.  Have you stopped long enough to be sure you’ve done what’s necessary to protect those assets?  John D. Rockefeller once stated, “Own nothing, but control everything.” Basically what he meant was ‘what you don’t own can’t be taken from you’.  

Join us as at the upcoming Atlanta REIA Wild Wild West Subgroup on Monday, March 24th at 6:30PM where Special Guest, Attorney Doug Shaddix, will show you how to protect your assets so people can’t take them from you on a whim.

Attorney Shaddix will be covering all of the ways to protect your assets… corporations, LLCs, trusts, Wyoming or Nevada LLCs, offshore and more. This insider info is how the “in-the know” wealthy do business to grow and protect their assets and keep their name off the public record!  Join us Monday for “don’t miss” info, including:

  • When is the right time to STOP buying and selling real estate in your own name and START forming entities to do business in?
  • Which entity should you consider using for your deals?  (Yes there is a BIG difference here… learn it before it’s too late and Uncle Sam gets in your pocket WAY too deep!)
  • How do you structure your empire for maximum asset protection and lowest taxation?
  • True stories of those who failed to protect their assets and what happened to them

We’ll be meeting Monday night at the Cherokee Cattle Company at 2710 Canton Road in Marietta (just off I-75) for a great evening of fun, must have information for any  investor, drinks, desserts, and great networking!  Doors open at 6:30pm, so come on in and order dinner and get some networking in before the meeting officially starts at 7pm.  There will be great door prizes too!  Come on down and bring a friend! Atlanta REIA Members get in FREE and guests are just $5.00 at the door.  

BTW, you may submit questions to Attorney Shaddix via my email address at leslie@happytrailshomes.com and I will be sure to get them to him. He will address them on Monday evening at the meeting.  See you there!
