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.

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:
