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

November 21st:
Bring What You Have.

What’s the best thing about being a member of a community of over 900 local real estate entrepreneurs?
That’s easy: it’s the ability to leverage other people’s knowledge, experience, efforts, money, credit, and connections to build YOUR business faster.
At our November 21st meeting, REIA of Greater Cincinnati is giving you the chance to do exactly that, with our giant, guided “haves and wants” session.

Find out FREE on either October 4th or October 5th!

- 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

Interested in Notes and Mortgages?
You Should Be…
And this meeting teaches you why
Investing in notes and mortgages is probably the hottest strategy of the last decade, and for good reason. Performing and defaulted “paper” is much more available to individuals than it used to be, and the returns are crazy.
But there’s more to notes and mortgages than just buying or flipping them—you can also use them to get more offers accepted, or turn your rentals into TRULY passive income…and that’s why you need to get more familiar with the powerful strategy.
Join us August 1st to learn more, and get the chance to buy or sell notes at our early meeting. Learn more, RSVP or get your free first-time guest pass HERE.
