“Negotiating is not something to be avoided or feared – it’s an everyday part of life.” ~ Leigh Steinberg

What does the term ‘negotiate’ conjure up in your mind?

  • A conflict where each side tries to ‘win’ by outsmarting the other?
  • A car salesman going to ”talk to his manager” about your offer, when you know he’s just going to get a cup of coffee and let you sit and stew?
  • A store clerk trying to convince you to buy something you don’t need, for more than you want to pay?

Do you get sweaty palms and a dry throat just thinking about negotiating with a homeowner?

I hope not! But if you do, rest easy, because it’s really not difficult, if you keep a few things in mind.  Read More→

Oct 2nd Meeting Before the Meeting
with Don DeRosa

Don DeRosaAre you spending money on marketing and not getting any deals? Are you able to take any lead and make a deal out of it? Do you know how to make multiple offers that actually get accepted? 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 cred? 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.

Join Don DeRosa at the High Tech Home Buying Creative Deal Structuring Subgroup on Monday, October 2nd from 5PM to 6PM at the Atlanta REIA Main Monthly Meeting where he will be teaching about a wide variety of topics each month. Don will teach you about the state-of-the-art tools and techniques you’ll use to evaluate deals and figure out how to make them work – so you can work less and spend more time where you want, when you want and with whom you want.

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.
  • And so much more…

Please RSVP on Meetup.com

Bring your deals and Don will walk through them step-by-step and he’ll show you how to easily evaluate the lead, determine your exit strategy, structure the deal, negotiate with the seller, and get the paperwork done in a snap.

Its an amazing time to be a real estate investor. Don’t look back 5 years from now and wish you had acted. Learn how to buy right… Learn to Make More and Work Less, Right Now!

 “Preconceived notions are the locks on the door to wisdom.” ~ Mary Browne

There is none other than August that are doing Bluetooth locks to the caliber of quality like we’ve never experienced before. August Lock System is something that is worth it. It works best with a Schlage deadbolt or other high-end deadbolt lock. It faces the interior door, so it doesn’t add a level of security that is significant. It is a convenience for the homeowner if perhaps they aren’t home and someone needs to attend to plants and pets.

The startup takes two steps to connect to a smartphone with the app pre-installed. The app does require a phone number and email. The subscription based security monitoring is worth it since the free subscription for the app is only as good as the deadbolt it is on.  Read More→

Smart Home
Technology Workshop
Learn How You Can Prepare Today’s Rehab with Tomorrow’s Technology
A Full Day Workshop with Don DeRosa
Sat, August 19th 9AM-6PM
1960 Skylar Hill Dr, Ste D, Buford, GA

Don DeRosaAre you flipping houses? Why not make them “Smart” like a High Tech Rehabber?!?

Smart home technology is not a passing trend. As we rely more on mobile devices, different industries are creating ways to communicate with them. Imagine a home experience where the only remote you need is your smart phone. Turn lights on and off, monitor home security cameras, close or open window shades, or know what’s in the fridge, all from your phone.

Logistically this next step makes sense. The homeowner is the user in this case, and the user experience should be seamless and easy to use. Integrating existing tech, smart home components give the user faster access. In some cases, smart home technology eliminates the anxiety around leaving for long periods of time. A property may be unoccupied, but it takes no time out of your own schedule to create the illusion of a presence at that location.

Come see Don on August 19th at 1960 Skylar Hill Dr, Ste D, Buford, GA and Don will share with you these techniques and more! Few companies offer a complete smart home system. There has been more user familiarity around individual components like Alexa by Amazon and the Ring System for home security. Don will teach you what the pros and cons are and what the estimated cost of it all can be.

Come To This Workshop and You Will Learn:

  • What Devices to Buy, Guide and Review
  • How to Setup and Install Step by Step
  • The Best Smart TV and Lighting Systems Guide and Review
  • Apps for Apple and Android Users that work with these Products

Don will go through comprehensive reviews, examining the pros and cons, of the following Smart Home applications::

  • Arlo Camera System Setup and Installation Tutorial
  • Harmony TV Guide
  • Ring Doorbell System Guide
  • Alexa by Amazon
  • August Home Smart Lock System Review and Installation Guide
  • Nest Thermostat Guide
  • Introduction to Samsung Smart Products
  • Smart Garage Door Tech Ideas
  • Voice Controlled Light Switch Technology
  • Bluetooth Light Bulb Technology for color therapy and audio

It’s the small things in an average day made easier. These minor changes can improve your chances of selling faster. The best part is that many of these smart home options don’t need to be hard wired.

Don will give you practical tips with real life examples. Prepare to be fascinated and blown away by what today’s technology offers, and what tomorrow can bring! REGISTER NOW!!

PLEASE NOTE: Location and schedule subject to change. Pricing is per person. No refunds 5 days prior to event. Register before early registration expires to save big time!

“I am thankful to all the souls, I meet in the journey of life.” ~ Lailah Gifty Akita

Touchnote App is a familiar app to many. It’s commonly used to create eCards for birthdays and holidays, as well as printing applications like greeting cards and framed photos. I have found a way to use this for my own needs that are unique to my business.

Using this app has freed up some of my time. How to gently and politely notify a homeowner that I have an interest in their home without knocking on the door and intruding on their routine. I’ve utilized the Touchnote App to reach out to these potential clients. I usually drive looking for vacant homes in particular. I just take a photo of the house and look up the homeowner’s address in the public tax records. I write a simple message explaining that I’m interested in buying the property. It’s so fast and takes the time and thought out of trying to reach out to these homeowners by phone or physically printing and paying postage on a postcard. The cost is $1.99, which is very reasonable. You can also reduce this price even more by buying in bulk, making the cost $1.50.  Read More→
