Our Mission is to increase our members networks and their ability to access the resources necessary to increase their business.” This session is all about making deals happen, so bring in your have’s and wants and share them with our live audience. It gets even better… we will be video recording the Speed Marketing Session and putting it on AtlantaREIA.com for 24/7 playback. This is a great way to spread the word about what you may have or want with our members, guests, friends and followers online and off. Come join us, bring your deal flyers and share your haves and wants and make deals happen!
Shooting Photos & Video, Uploading & Tagging on Facebook
Bring your digital camera to the Atlanta REIA Meeting and Party and take lots of pictures and videos of you and your friends during the event. After the Speed Marketing Session, Dustin Griffin is going to show you how to upload pictures and videos to Facebook from your PC or cell phone and tag yourself and your friends if you don’t already know how. Using pictures and video is a great way to network and make friends in-person and to continue networking online long after the meeting and party is over.

Atlanta REIA Charter/Founding Member Status Ends in Jan 2011
We founded the Atlanta Real Estate Investors Alliance back in June of this year, had our first meeting on July 5th and have been getting stronger and stronger each and every month thanks to your help and support. Our Charter Membership Drive, which began on October 4th, will end on January 31st, 2011. This does not mean that you can’t still become an Atlanta REIA Member, it just means that you will not forever be classified as a “Charter” or “Founding Member” of the Atlanta Real Estate Investors Alliance. If you do choose to become an official Atlanta REIA Charter Member, it will be a designation and honor that you can put on your “resume” for many, many years to come. We will also be forever listing you on our website, as well as a plaque at our headquarters, as an official Atlanta REIA Founding Member of organization. This way, many years from now, you can look back and say I helped make Atlanta REIA the #1 real estate investor alliance in the South! Join Atlanta REIA Now! Again we thank you for your support!

Atlanta REIA December Meeting & Christmas Party is TONIGHT!
Posted on December 6, 2010 by
We at the Atlanta Real Estate Investors Alliance want to wish you and yours a very Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays! On Monday, December 6th starting at 5:30 PM at the Doubletree Hotel in Roswell, GA, we are having a very special Atlanta REIA Meeting and Christmas party. Atlanta REIA Members may bring guests at NO CHARGE and non-members may attend for FREE as well. Come one, come all and celebrate the holiday season with us and many other Atlanta real estate investors, entrepreneurs and professionals.
From 6 to 7 PM, I’ve asked several of our good friends, business members and fellow investors such as Jeff Nix, Mark Galey, Joe Thompson, Erven Kimble, Karen Bershad and a few others to address our group about what we have going on at Atlanta REIA and are planning in the near future.
From 7 to 8:30 PM, our good friend, guru and very successful commercial real estate investor, David Lindahl, will be our main speaker for the evening and will be talking about how to successfully invest in commercial real estate and make a fortune in today’s real estate market. Dave is NOT one of those real estate gurus who is all talk and no action. Dave currently owns over 7200 commercial units and is still actively working the business. In fact, we did a short webcast with Dave yesterday, live from Huntsville, Alabama where he was overseeing some of his properties there. Click here to listen to the webcast with Dave. If you attend our December 6th Meeting, Dave has a special gift for you… FREE Tickets to his Wealth Conference on December 11th and 12th in Buckhead. This is an event you don’t want to miss!
