Posted on February 5, 2014 by& Communication Skills
For Business Leaders
with Special Guest, Ariel Ghing
The all new Atlanta REIA All Inclusive Marketing (AIM) Group (formerly the “I Love Marketing” group) meets on Monday, February 10th at 7:00 PM at La Madeleine located at 1165 Perimeter Center West, Atlanta, GA. We are very excited about this meeting and our guest speaker and star maker, Ariel Ghinga, who will be talking about how to use “Public Speaking” to help grow your small business.
You may be thinking that public speaking is not for you and that there is no way anyone could drag you on to any stage to speak. Well, whether you realize it or not, any time you speak in public, regardless of the number of people in the audience, it is public speaking. Your communication skills are perhaps one of the single most significant skills you can acquire that will help you soar to the top of your chosen profession. You can use these skills regardless of whether you are speaking with one person, such as buyers, sellers and customers, or to thousands of people.
Ariel Ghinga is a skilled public speaking coach who has helped many professionals and entrepreneurs grow their businesses through his time-tested and proven public presentation techniques. His breakthrough programs on public speaking and leadership have enabled participants to soar to financial heights using his advanced immersion methodologies on communicating effectively.
Come join us at AIM on Monday, February 10th to learn how you can sharpen your speaking and communication skills. This is a rare opportunity you don’t want to miss!
After the conclusion of our All Inclusive Marketing Meeting, we will be meeting at a nearby restaurant for “Late Nite Networking”. We will announce where will be meeting at the AIM Meeting. So come and join us for the AIM Meeting and be prepared to stay late and network and have fun with like minded real estate investors, marketers and other professionals late into the evening!
The Atlanta REIA All Inclusive Marketing (AIM) Group (formerly known as the “I Love Marketing” group) is a new networking and educational meeting led by Rock Shukoor and Dustin Griffin for like-minded real estate investors and small business owners who enjoy marketing and are interested in taking their business to the next level through creative marketing techniques.

Although many of the examples we cover at the meetings will be geared towards real estate investors, the techniques and strategies learned can easily be applied to any business. AIM meets on the 2nd Monday of each month at 7:00 PM at La Madeleine located at 1165 Perimeter Center West, Atlanta, GA.

“Mr. E” moved to the Atlanta area just 3 months ago and is already doing 2-3 deals consistently in the Atlanta market right now. He is not a known speaker or superstar. He isn’t in the spotlight. Yet he is quietly cranking out successful deal after deal and making things happen!
Tony Robbins says, “If you want to be successful, find someone who has achieved the results you want and copy what they do and you’ll achieve the same results.” This is the guy you want to copy!
We’re pulling back the curtain to have a rare look inside “Mr. E.’s” business and daily life–no fluff, no theory, no pie-in-the-sky promises–just real info form a real-life mover and shaker. He has promised to be candid with us and answer questions like:
Come out and discover what it is you want and need to know to make 2014 your year of prosperity and success! Come early, as seating is limited!
- What are the biggest keys to his success?
- What does he know and do differently than most people to produce great results? (isn’t that what we ALL want–results?)
- What does his daily life and business look like?
- What kind of deals is he doing to achieve great results?
- What is his average profit per deal?
- How does he find and finance his deals?
- What sets him apart from the crowd?
- What do you want to ask him?
After the conclusion of our Wild Wild West Investors Meeting, we will be hanging out in the meeting room at the Cherokee Cattle Company for “Late Nite Networking”. CCC will be offering the best desserts in the area and awesome libations from their full bar for our members and guests. Come eat, drink, network and have fun with like minded real estate investors and other professionals late into the night!
The Atlanta REIA West Monthly Meeting is an Atlanta REIA Subchapter led by Leslie Mathis that is held on the 4th Monday of each month at 6:30 PM at the Cherokee Cattle Company located at 2710 Canton Road in Marietta, GA. Atlanta REIA Members can attend for FREE and guests for $5.00. Show up at 6:30 PM to eat and network before the meeting officially starts at 7:00 PM. Buying your own meal is optional but highly recommended and greatly appreciated since the Cherokee Cattle Company allows us to use their meeting room. There will be lots of learning and lots of networking. Bring your deals and your haves, wants and needs to the event.

The Beginning Investors Group Has a Record Turnout in January 2014
Posted on January 22, 2014 byYes, you read that right, 116+ people gathered together at January’s BIG meeting for a record turnout. We listened to an action oriented, powerful presentation made by William Crowley on Credit Restoration. William informed us of a lot of points that many of us did not know about our credit reports and history. He delivered his 4 step system to restore credit and facts about the UCC code. William touched a nerve that a lot of us have… Many of us are slaves to debt and our credit history. William is driven by his passion to help us break those chains of credit slavery.
We also expanded our meeting agenda. We have started a “First Deal” segment, where we will highlight members as they do their first deals. Congratulations to Bernard Lawson and his partner Esther Walker of BE Property Investors LLC for taking the “leap of faith” and getting into the game. Congratulations to Jason Baines too who did his first “subject to” deal. If you are a first time investor and a regular attendee of our meeting, we want to hear about your first deal!
Mike Cherwenka of Goldmine Properties also spoke about the in’s and out’s of Wholesaling during his long real estate investing career. Rock Shukoor also taught us “How to Wholesale Like A Pro” during Late Nite Networking.
Dustin Griffin also spoke on the benefits of having an Atlanta REIA membership and updated us on some of the exciting new subgroups that Atlanta REIA is forming now. He also updated us on how our members can participate in the new DIY Network TV Show called “First Time Flippers”. If you want to know more details, just go to First Time Flippers. The information is free, just place the order to download the information. Read More→

We visited this house back in November when it was undergoing a moderate renovation including some re-framing and a lot of wiring and plumbing work. The renovation is now complete giving us the opportunity to critique the renovation and point fingers to things that may have been done differently. Parking is spacious but the driveway is steep, so you may want to park next door Sykes park.
The Onsite Renovation Group, led by Aaron McGinnis of Craftbuilt Properties, is an new educational and networking group that focuses on the acquisition, renovation and retail resale (fix and flip) of single family residential homes inside the I-285 perimeter and the in-town neighborhoods. The purpose of this group is to allow both new and experienced rehabbers and investors to meet, network and share knowledge and experience with “hands on” access to real property. The Onsite Renovation Group meets on the 3rd Tuesday of each month at NOON at an active renovation site, build site or rental property which will vary from month to month. There is currently no charge to attend these meeting.

During his presentation, William will teach how to use the Fair Credit Reporting Act to greatly benefit yourself and your customers by deleting negative entries off their credit report in as little as 30 days.

- William’s 4-Step Credit Restoration Formula
- How to delete negatives off your credit report and dramatically increase your credit score for the cost of a postage stamp.
- How to get tax liens, student loans, late payments, collections, repossessions, charge-offs and even foreclosures and bankruptcies removed from your credit reports due to the Credit Reporting Agencies’ incompetence.
- How to use a Cease and Desist Letter to stop harassing calls from Collection Agencies.
- How to use the Fair Credit Reporting Act to your advantage.
- How to settle accounts with Collection Agencies the right way.

Would You Like to See Your 1st Deal On TV?
Join Us at BIG to Learn How You Could Be On DIY
Network’s New TV Show About First Time Flippers!
Atlanta REIA has been contacted by the casting department for the DIY Network’s new show called “First Time Flippers”. They are looking for first time house flippers in the Atlanta area to feature on the upcoming season of the show. The show is about whether or not two First Time Flippers can turn a disaster house into a dream home. The show will chronicle the highs and lows of finding, fixing and flipping a house as investors take on their very first deal. Will they make a profit or will they break the bank?
People that are featured in an episode of First Time Flippers will receive $5,000 for allowing the show to film their flipping experience. Since the title of the show is “First Time Flippers”, they are looking for people who really are fixing and flipping a house for the first time. They do not want seasoned pros or people who are already flipping houses for a living. Also, they said they prefer people who plan on doing the majority of the physical work themselves – it’s just not as entertaining to watch somebody buy a house and then hire contractors to essentially fix it for them. Plus, this show is going to be airing on the DIY Network, which stands for “Do It Yourself”.
Join us at BIG on Monday, January 20th to Learn

December 2nd Atlanta REIA Meeting with David Lindahl on Huge Monthly Cash Flows with Apartments
Posted on November 25, 2013 bywith Special Guest, David Lindahl
Guests Can RSVP Online Now for $15 or Pay $20 at the Door.
On December 2nd at the Atlanta REIA Main Meeting, David Lindahl will teach you how to create a $10,300 per month positive cash flow and become a multi-millionaire in five years or less by investing in single family houses and then transitioning into apartment buildings!
With more than 18 years of experience in Real Estate Investing, David Lindahl has rehabbed over 820 houses, and currently controls over 7,400 apartment units. Starting out as a struggling landscaper with no experience in construction, Dave would rehab single-family houses to “flip” for chunks of money, so he could buy apartment buildings. Within the first 14 months, Dave’s apartment buildings created a positive cash flow of more than $10,300 a month for him and his family and within three and one half years Dave became a multi-millionaire.
Dave then learned about the four phases of the Real Estate Market Cycle, what strategies to use in each cycle for maximum profit and the fact that at any given time there are 10 – 20 markets around the United States that are “Emerging.” Dave learned how to find these markets, and he created a system to buy in these markets and became much wealthier, much faster! He has done and does all of this without dealing with a single tenant! Now he is ready to tell you how you can do it too!
Today, Dave has earned millions of dollars renovating houses for resale. And, he controls over 7,400 apartment units with a monthly cash flow equaling what most people make in a year!
Join Dave at Atlanta REIA where he will teach you:
- How to Recognize Market Cycles and Use Them to Become Wealthy Fast!
- How To Find Good Quality Management Companies to Manage Your Tenants so You Don’t Have to!
- The 5 Steps To Creating Wealth Through Real Estate Investing
- How to Find Motivated Sellers of Apartment Buildings and Get Them to Call You!
- How to Analyze an Apartment Building in 3 minutes or Less to Determine if It’s a Deal!
- The 6 Value Plays that You Should Look for in Every Deal—Finding Just One Can Make You a Fortune!
- How to Explode Your Wealth Using 1031 Tax Free Exchanges!
- Why There is Far Less Risk Owning Apartment Houses!
- How to Refinance and Get Chunks of Cash—Tax Free!
- Many Other Money Making Systems and Strategies that Dave has Successfully Developed!
- And much, much more including answers to your questions…
Come join Dave and the rest of us at the Atlanta REIA Meeting on Monday, December 2nd at 5PM at the Crown Plaza Ravinia Hotel in Atlanta located at 4355 Ashford Dunwoody Road in Atlanta, GA and learn how to invest in apartment buildings.
