What’s Happening at Atlanta REIA – January 15, 2025

Whether you’re a first-time investor or an experienced buyer looking for a new, less-competitive property class, condos and co-ops are worth considering. Learn what to look for and pitfalls to avoid in this 1/2 Day Masterclass with Linda Baumgarten.

Condos and Co-Ops Might be the “Secret” Property Class You’ve Been Looking For…

Most real estate investors don’t even THINK about condos as properties to wholesale, or retail, or invest in as long-term rentals.

So if most of your competitors aren’t considering them, does that mean that maybe…YOU should?

Linda Baumgarten did, early on in her real estate career, and ended up renting and flipping them more of them than we’ve ever seen one person do, and, ultimately becoming an “ender” from those investments.

That’s why we’ve invited her to come share what you need to know to do the same thing, like:

• Why what you “know” about condos might be old news—you’ll be surprised to find out how big the demand actually is, and who the primary buyers and renters are today.
• The many advantages of condos and co-ops over single family homes, and the biggest challenges they have as investments.
• Which condos should you invest in, and which to avoid. This section alone will save you a ton of wasted time.
• How you find them, evaluate them, and finance them, all of which is a little different than what your used to .
• The one key document you MUST, without fail, have before you close.
• Plus tons of real life examples of how you can flip them for quick cash, keep them for long-term income and appreciation, and maybe even find one for yourself…
