Bring Pen, Paper & Dress Accordingly for
Home Inspection Tour

Gordon Catts, Alisha Spence & Catherine McFarlandWith the scarcity of listed properties, tight inventory of investor type deals, and the changing market, it’s critical to be able to look at purchase and re-sale prices objectively, know your rehab/repair expenses, and avoid overpaying for a property. With the intensely competitive market, it is imperative that you know how to determine if an opportunity is a “Deal” or “No Deal”, be able to “pull the trigger” quickly and beat your competition.

At our Due Diligence Workshop on Saturday, November 1st at 1960 Skylar Hill Dr, Suite D in Buford, GA, you will learn from three dynamic real estate investor professionals… Professional Investor Gordon Catts, Certified Housing Inspector Catherine McFarland, and Realtor/Investor, Alisha Spence as they show you how to determine accurate property values, repair estimates, property inspection and methods to determine what an investor should pay for the property and much more!

Here are some of the things you’ll learn:

  • How to know the differences with a property’s rental income and it’s value
  • Reliable sources of “comparable” information
  • What an investor should pay for the property
  • Identifying the target market for the property
  • How to utilize public and near public information
  • How to inspect the property
  • What is a deal or not a deal
  • Pitfalls to avoid
  • And much more!

But that’s not all. You will actually go out into the field to inspect and value a real property, hands-on.

You will have THREE real estate professionals teaching you some very critical lessons when it comes to being a successful real estate investor. Take advantage of this rare opportunity and sign up NOW! Seating is limited, so the longer you wait to register, the more likely your space will not be there.

Is It a Deal or No Deal?!?
with Don DeRosa, Russ Hiner, Rock Shukoor, Gordon Catts & Dustin Griffin

Download Lead SheetMany beginning real estate investors are often thwarted by trying to determine if an investment opportunity is a “Deal” or “No Deal”. Some new investors jump on every potential deal that comes along because they are afraid to let one get away. Others can’t seem to “pull the trigger” on a deal because they’re afraid to make a mistake. All new investors face the same challenge: How do you know if you’re looking at a good deal or not?

First of all, what could be a good deal for one investor might not be for another. Establishing your personal buying goals and criteria will help eliminate “No Deals” from your consideration quickly. After that, it’s a matter of knowing how to “size up” a good deal by knowing what to measure and how to calculate your potential profits and expenses.

Don DeRosa, Russ Hiner, Rock Shukoor & Dustin Griffin

On Monday, September 15th at the Beginning Investors Group (BIG), we want you to Bring YOUR LEADS (Download Lead Sheet) where Don DeRosa, Russ Hiner, Rock Shukoor, Gordon Catts & Dustin Griffin will pre-screen and analyze them, construct a few potential offers, and call the Sellers and get you an appointment and/or make deals on the spot (time and noise permitting of course).

Atlanta REIA – August 4th
Buying Houses “Subject-To”
In Today’s Real Estate Market

with Don DeRosa

Atlanta REIA Members Can Attend at No Charge. This month,
Guests Can RSVP Online Now for $20 or Pay $25 at the Door.

Don DeRosaDon DeRosa is a part time real estate trainer and mentor and full-time real estate investor who actively buys, sells and holds properties each month for huge profits and long term cash flow. Today Don is working furiously at buying properties “Subject-To” using the existing financing on the seller’s home instead of having to go to a bank or a hard money lender for funding. This allows Don to buy multiple properties fast, without coming up with all the purchase funds on the front end. This is the perfect strategy in today’s market where easy funding is not readily available for investors to buy pretty houses.

Join us on Monday, August 4th at 5:00PM at the Atlanta REIA Main Monthly Meeting at the Salvation Army Building located at 2090 N Druid Hills Rd NE, Atlanta, GA 30329 and Don will share with you, many of the subject-to strategies, tools and techniques he uses every day to create winning deals for himself as well as his buyers and sellers.

Don will walk you through real world, actual deals, step-by-step to demonstrate how to apply these strategies, tools and techniques. In fact, you can bring your deals, and he’ll show you exactly how to evaluate the lead, determine your exit strategy, structure the deal, negotiate with the seller and get the paperwork done almost instantly and without any of the hard work you normally do to get your deals done.

By the end of the presentation, you’ll know…

  • How to recognize a “Subject To” opportunity and buy with little or no money!
  • How to evaluate any lead and decide whether this is a winner for you and how much money you’ll make before you make your offer
  • How to combine buying strategies and exit strategies – that work right now, in 2014
  • How to structure a deal in less than 10 minutes, so that you make a minimum of $20,000 on it, choosing from multiple purchase and exist strategies
  • How to determine the seller’s hot buttons so you can craft a deal the seller can’t refuse
  • How to use Don’s proprietary tools to negotiate for you, so you never let your emotions talk you into making a bad deal!

And if this is not enough, Don will be back with us on August 23rd for a one day workshop called “Making a Fortune Buying Houses with No Money and No Credit” to really drive these points home and give you all the subject-to details you need to succeed in real estate investing. Once you are armed with Don’s training and the tools, you will be able to do deals you never thought possible!

Atlanta REIA – July 7th
Join us for an Expert Panel Discussion on…
Understanding the Ever-Changing
Atlanta Real Estate Market

Atlanta REIA Members Can Attend at No Charge. This month,
Guests Can RSVP Online Now for $20 or Pay $25 at the Door.

We are very excited about our next Atlanta REIA Main Meeting is on Monday, July 7th at the Salvation Army Building located at 2090 N Druid Hills Rd NE, Atlanta, GA 30329. This month we will be having our monthly vendor tradeshow as usual, but will also be having a Expert Panel Discussion on “Understanding the Ever-Changing Atlanta Real Estate Market”. Gordon Catts will be moderating a panel of real estate experts consisting of Rhonda Duffy of Duffy Realty, John Holman of HomeVestors, Robert Locke of Crown Management and John Mangham with Starker Services.

Power Panel

The Atlanta Metro Area real estate market has changed dramatically since this time last year. Perhaps you’ve heard there is an “Atlanta Inventory Crisis”.

  • Certain areas have gone from a buyer’s market to a seller’s market due to the inventory shortage of available homes for sale at auction or on the MLS.
  • Many Realtors are not only struggling to get listings, but also to find suitable properties for their buyers.
  • Some area property values have risen close to 2007 levels. Many home owners who have been “under water” may be close to break even in these areas.
  • REO Brokers are reporting that banks are not releasing foreclosed inventory. Instead, they are reportedly selling off blocks of pre-foreclosed (“bad paper”) and foreclosed homes to large institutional buyers.
  • Shadow inventory is alive and well and some of the foreclosure firms have laid off staff. The number of pre foreclosures is down and yet it is not consistent with delinquencies.
  • Out of state and foreign buyers are active in the market and Atlanta is a favorite destination for real estate gurus once again.

To learn more about the changing market conditions, be sure to join us at Atlanta REIA on July 7th to hear a panel of local real estate experts discuss their opinions on the Atlanta Real Estate Market. This is your opportunity to hear from folks you don’t normally get to hear from who truly have valuable first hand insights into the Atlanta Market. So please bring your questions and do not miss your chance to learn what’s hot and what’s not in the Atlanta market.

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!
