A Primer About Why You Want to Buy Apartments, Not Houses…

Why NOW is the best time to get started
in note investing
(Plus the basics of seller financing)
Like every other strategy in real estate investing, investing in (or flipping) notes and mortgages as a distinct ‘cycle’. When note holders are worried about the economy—say, because there’s a 5.5% nationwide mortgage default rate, or 10% of Americans are unemployed—they get more anxious to sell, and at better prices.
That makes right now a great time to get started in this business, which coincidentally can be done 100% at home, with a phone and laptop, and never requires visiting a property. And the world’s leading expert in how to DO the note business from your kitchen table is Donna Bauer, who started that way herself, about 1,000 deals ago.
Register for our online meeting August 6th, and she’ll share how you can do it too; Join us at 7:30 pm or at 6 for our early workshop about the basics of “Seller Financing” by clicking this link.

LIVE networking picnic
Yep, we're gonna try it...
a live networking picnic at Great Wolf Lodge
Yep, we're gonna try it...with masks, social distancing, and all that, of course...and only if the governor doesn't tell us not to, of course...
That's a lot of "ifs", we know, but so many members have asked for a chance to meet in person (and we get it...networking is a HUGE benefit of membership!) that we decided to give it a try, and see what happens.
We'll be in Great Wolf's outdoor area (which only holds 48 people at 6' distances), with box meals (which is all they're allowed to serve), but that's OK, 'cause you're there to reconnect (not physically, please!) with your fellow members.
If the weather doesn't cooperate, we'll be in their big ballroom (which also only holds about 60 people with appropriate distancing)
If you're sick, stay home.
If you're too nervous to be around other people, we get it. There will be another awesome online general meeting in 2 weeks.
But if you're one of the MANY who's been pushing for a live meeting, bring your mask, gloves if you want, and be there!
Because of the limited space and the fact that we have to order food, ONLY pre-registered attendees will be allowed in. Please register HERE
...and let us know if you change your mind!

And Cutting Your Taxes…
Real estate investing is well-known for being a “tax advantaged” investment, but not too many people know about the two BIGGEST tax advantages: getting to build wealth by paying ZERO taxes, at least for a while, by investing in “Opportunity Zones” and by using the money in your self-directed IRA to do deals…

- You have a retirement plan that’s getting you crazy-low returns, and you need to boost those right away
- You don’t have a retirement plan, and you know you need one, and you need to start with a small contribution and build it FAST
- You know people with money in retirement plans, and you want to learn to work with them to to fund YOUR deals
‘Cause that’s what you’re gonna learn.

What if Your Real Estate Business in 2020
Was More Profitable AND Easier AND More Fun?
Success in real estate isn’t just about the money in the bank: it’s about whether you’re enjoying it, and fulfilled by it, and working on the parts of it that are most productive AND the most within your “genius zone” (yeah, you have one).
If you’re looking to build a business that doesn’t just produce wads of cash, but also contributes to the world, and your community, and that you’re excited to be part of every day, take an evening to learn exactly how to create THAT business in 2020.
Our super-special guest speaker, Shaun McCloskey, has literally coached the most successful real estate investors in the U.S.—names you’d know, and people with businesses you want for yourself—in this process. It’s been 2 years since he’s made an appearance at a local Real Estate Association, so this is a “don’t miss” event.
Whether you’re brand new, or have a real estate business that isn’t…quite…what you’d hoped for, you’ll leave this meeting with a plan to build a business you’ll love, instead of just one that meets your financial needs. RSVP or get a first-time guest pass HERE

To Get Rich?)
Find out FREE on either October 4th or October 5th!

- What’s REALLY happening with prices, inventory, rents, and regulation in our market, right now, and what that means to YOUR strategy over the next 12-24 months
- How the coming recession will affect apartments and single family homes, and the opportunities and challenges it presents for wholesalers, retailers, landlords, and note buyers
- How the retirement of 10,000 baby boomers a day opens up entire new strategies in real estate investing
- How changes in technology mean that finding off-market deals is easier and cheaper than ever before—even for those of us who aren’t “technical”
- What the recent and proposed increase in the requirements for “conventional loans” do to you, and how investors ALWAYS get money to buy houses when it’s hard to go to a bank and qualify for a loan
- How to make money selling houses when home buyers AREN’T buying
- How to recognize when you should be stocking up on properties, and when you should be selling them—and strategies for doing that, when the time is right
- How the tidal wave of new property regulation and litigation affects you (and how to fight back)
- When the next 2007-like crash is likely to come, and how to be one of the people who profit from it
- Resources that can move your real estate business forward faster, help you avoid mistakes, and give you the connections you need to succeed
