July Meeting, Thursday July 8th
 

Topic: Total Asset Protection

Speaker:  Lynda L. Sands, JD, MBA
 

 Almost 200 lawsuits are filed EVERY MINUTE in the US, and as a Real Estate Investor, we need to know EXACTLY what kind of entity protects US best. Investors are like snowflakes, no two are alike!

Our next meeting, July 8th, will feature Lynda L. Sands, JD, MBA who will guide you in making the best choices for asset protection. 

Even successful real estate gurus who teach aspects of real estate investing tell you NOT TO WORRY about how you hold your assets— go buy property and worry about this later. It’s like telling you to go buy a plane and fly it, but don’t worry about the FAA or TSA. Recipe for disaster!

You don't know when:

o you will be sued

o you will be incapacitated

o you will be divorced

o you will die (or your partner or spouse will) or

o your partner (or spouse) will steal your money 

 .....and you cannot prepare for disaster after it strikes!

 IF WE ARE SMART & SAAVY ENOUGH TO FIND A GOOD DEAL, BUY PROPERTY AND MAKE A PROFIT, WE CAN LEARN TO RUN OUR BUSINESS PROFESSIONALLY

 o You need a structure that fits you at YOUR stage of business—one that will evolve with you.

  o Learn the concepts that will grow WITH YOU, whether you have one property or dozens of properties.

 o Her goal is to make you self-sufficient in understanding how to choose your business structure.

 April 8th 

Topic: Street Smart Guerrilla Marketing

Speaker: Dave Berens

Are you tired of making dozens of offers on REO properties only to constantly lose out to the competition?
Are you frustrated that the REO deals are drying up, and the prices for REO’s are climbing? It's time to broaden your horizons and "go old-school"! With all of the industry hype over REOs, we've forgotten our good ol' source of property leads: the homeowner.
 
Be sure to join us on April 8th and learn how to get your phone ringing with homeowners who are motivated to do business with you!
 
Dave Berens is going to show us the best Marketing Campaigns to attract sellers and, most importantly, what to say when they call. He will also teach us where to get the best bang for our marketing buck. 
 
We can’t sit around and wait for the banks to accept our offers. The last counter-offer Dave received came with an e-mail from the agent which said that he was competing with 40 other offers!  So let’s let the REO chips fall where they may. But in the meantime, it’s time to get back to basics and get those sellers on the phone!

As if the meeting could get any better, we will be raffling off a seat for Dave's Creative Investing: 101 class scheduled for Saturday, April 24th!
