Make Me An Offer I Can’t Refuse!
March 23rd with Bill Cook

Bill CookA common mistake made by real estate investors is to forget why they knock on a seller’s door. By “forget,” I don’t mean the seller answers the door and the investor stands there with a stupid, lost look on his face. I mean the investor doesn’t understand the basic objective of why he’s there at the seller’s home.

Do you know the ultimate objective of meeting with sellers? I mean, why are you there? What’s the purpose? Is it to be given a tour of the seller’s house? The reason an investor knocks on a seller’s door is to get to the kitchen table. You want to get to the kitchen table so you can ask Pete Fortunato’s famous question: “Why are you selling such a nice house like this?” The answer Pete’s question allows you to get a better understanding of what the seller wants and why he wants it. Having this information allows you to structure an offer around the seller’s unique wants and needs.

Come join us at the Atlanta REIA Wild Wild West Group on Monday, March 23rd at 6:30PM at Cherokee Cattle Company located at 2710 Canton Rd in Marietta, where Bill Cook will show YOU how to take the “what” and “why” you get from the seller at the kitchen table, and construct a win-win offer that helps the seller get from the uncomfortable situation they’re in, to a situation where they’re more comfortable and willing to do business with you.

Remember: If your offers don’t help your sellers to improve their current situation, they’ll turn your offer down flat! So remember the ultimate objective of why you meet with sellers: To make them a written offer!

If you want to know how to make offers that can’t be refused, you need to be at this event!

Join us and you will learn:

  • When Should You Make An Offer?
  • How Do You Make An Offer?
  • What Is The Difference Between A Contract And An Offer?
  • What Is The Best Kind Of Offer Paperwork To Use?
  • How You Can Make 5 Written Offers A Day.
  • And much, much more.

Bill and Kim Cook are a husband and wife real estate investing team. They live on a horse ranch in Adairsville GA, and have been investing in real estate since 1995. Their investment portfolio is made up of single-family rental homes, mobile homes, a small mobile home park, plus notes and options. They built their business simply by knocking on sellers doors and making offers the seller can’t refuse.

Keeping it Legal When Raising Private Money to Fund Your Deals
with Jim Hitt

Jim HittCome join us at the Atlanta REIA West Group on Monday, October 27th at 6:30PM at Cherokee Cattle Company located at 2710 Canton Rd in Marietta, where Jim Hitt will be showing YOU how to keep yourself out of legal trouble when you are raising private money for your investing. Raising money from strangers is not as simple as you might think, especially when you have to deal with SEC guidelines and a real estate market that has brought about countless negative media headlines. Despite the negative headlines, the real estate market is ripe with incredible deals — deals so good we will be talking about them for decades.

Raising the money necessary to fund these deals is one of the biggest challenges for many investors. Banks are extremely tight and cash is king since sellers want cash! Raising private money isn’t always as simple as asking family, friends and contacts. Sometimes you have to engage strangers and somehow convince them to start writing you checks or wire money all without violating SEC guidelines.

You will learn:

  • How To Find Private Lenders
  • How To Negotiate For The Best Deal
  • The Legal Aspects Of Raising Funds
  • How To Not Run Afoul Of The Law
  • And much, much more.

Jim is the founder and President of American IRA. He is also a successful investor as well. Come and network with Jim and other fellow investors.
