Which Deal is the Best Investment?
with Frank Iglesias
Join us on Monday, November 16th as Frank Iglesias walks us through THREE different new construction deals.
his won’t just be a presentation where you sit and listen. Frank will put three actual deal scenarios in front of the group and have attendees analyze each opportunity to determine:
- Which deal makes the most financial sense?
- How do you evaluate the numbers?
- What should you look for when analyzing a new construction opportunity?
- Which deal offers the best potential return?
- What factors can make one deal a better investment than another?
This is a great opportunity for beginner investors to learn how to look at new construction deals, evaluate the numbers, and develop the confidence to recognize a good investment opportunity.
Come ready to participate, analyze, ask questions, and learn!
You don’t learn how to recognize a good deal until you learn how to analyze one! RSVP Now and join us at BIG to Learn More!
Atlanta REIA Members can attend the meeting at no charge and not-yet-members can RSVP Online for $15 or pay $20 at the door.
About BIG…
The Beginning Investors Group (BIG) is an educational and networking group for new investors who are just getting started in real estate investing as well as “new again” real estate investors who’ve taken a few years off and are looking to get back in the game.
BIG is hosted by Don DeRosa who will be bringing in local and national real estate experts to teach new investors how to survive and thrive in our ever changing economy and real estate market. The entire purpose of the group is to help new investors get their first deal and help new again investors get their next deal.
This is a “dinner” group and we kindly request that you buy dinner and/or drinks since the Hudson Grille allows us to meet there. There will be lots of learning and lots of networking. Bring your deals and your haves, wants and needs to the meeting for discussion.
As always, Atlanta REIA Members can attend the meeting at no charge and not-yet-members can RSVP Online for $15 or pay $20 at the door.

Learn How You Can Buy Houses Without Banks, Credit Checks or Getting New Loans
Keller Williams, 1960 Satellite Blvd,
Suite 1500, Duluth, GA
What if your next deal didn’t require a new mortgage?
You find a property. The seller needs a solution. The opportunity looks promising—but getting a new loan becomes the obstacle.
Subject-To investing gives you another strategy to explore.
Join Don DeRosa for a full day focused on understanding how investors purchase properties subject to existing financing, evaluate the opportunity, communicate with sellers, and address the risks involved.
You’ll go beyond the headline of “take over payments” to explore the conversations, numbers, paperwork, and responsibilities that determine whether a deal makes sense.
Learn the Strategy—and What to Watch Out For
Taking over payments is only one part of a Subject-To transaction. You also need to understand the seller’s situation, the existing financing, the property’s condition, and your plan for the property.
This workshop brings those pieces together through practical instruction and real-world deal examples.
Understand How Subject-To Investing Works
- Learn what it means to buy a property subject to an existing mortgage.
- Understand how this approach differs from obtaining new financing.
- Explore where the strategy may fit—and when another approach may be more appropriate.
Find and Talk with Motivated Sellers
- Identify homeowners who may benefit from a creative financing solution.
- Explain the process in language sellers can understand.
- Address questions about payments, credit, and ongoing responsibilities.
- Recognize potential opportunities among leads you already have.
Analyze the Numbers and Structure the Deal
- Evaluate the existing payments, property condition, and expected expenses.
- Consider potential cash flow and exit strategies.
- Learn how to negotiate terms that address both your needs and the seller’s situation.
- Recognize warning signs before moving forward.
Understand the Paperwork and Ongoing Responsibilities
- Explore the documents used in Subject-To transactions.
- Learn about payment handling and servicing.
- Understand why insurance and documentation deserve careful attention.
- Identify questions to discuss with qualified professionals before closing.
Recognize and Manage the Risks
- Understand due-on-sale clauses and why they matter.
- Examine the seller’s continuing exposure when an existing loan remains in place.
- Learn about common mistakes and circumstances that may warrant walking away.
- Understand why “no new mortgage” does not mean “no risk.”
Work Through Real-World Examples
- Follow how potential deals are evaluated.
- See how seller conversations, financing, and property details affect the structure.
- Discuss what worked, what did not, and why.
- Build a clearer process for evaluating your next opportunity.
Who Should Attend?
This workshop is designed for:
- New investors who want to understand creative financing before pursuing a deal.
- Experienced investors looking for another way to structure an acquisition.
- Wholesalers who want to recognize opportunities beyond a traditional cash purchase.
- Landlords exploring ways to acquire additional rental properties.
- Investors with seller leads who want to ask better questions and evaluate more options.
You don’t need previous Subject-To experience to attend. Bring your questions and a willingness to look at deals from a different perspective.
Spend the Day Learning with Don DeRosa
Don will lead you through the strategy, seller conversations, deal analysis, and practical considerations involved in Subject-To investing.
The goal is to help you understand more than how a deal starts. You’ll explore what needs to be considered before closing and what responsibilities continue afterward.
Learn the process. Understand the numbers. Ask better questions. Make more informed decisions.

Add Another Strategy to Your Investing Toolbox
A financing obstacle doesn’t always have to end the conversation. Understanding Subject-To investing can help you recognize possibilities—and distinguish an opportunity worth pursuing from a problem worth avoiding.
