Lease Purchase Mastery with Mike Mathe At Chattanooga REIA Main Event on August 2nd
By Chattanooga REIA on July 29, 2018
RSVP on Facebook or RSVP on Meetup
Please stop what you’re doing, RSVP on Meetup or Facebook, then mark your calendar for the upcoming Chattanooga REIA Main Monthly Event on Thursday, August 2nd, from 6:30PM-9PM at Hilton Garden Suites, Hamilton Place, 2343 Shallowford Village Dr, Chattanooga, TN
At this event, we have special guest speaker Mike Mathe, acquisition specialist with the Pink International Real Estate Academy to show you how you can use Master Executive Lease Purchases to make a minimum of $10,000-$25,000 plus on every deal!
Executive Lease Purchase is a structured agreement that doesn’t require you to lay out capital to control premium properties.
These are simple agreements with sellers where the seller agrees to accept payments towards the purchase of their home for a predetermined price, monthly payment and time frame.
They then can offer that home for sale to folks who can afford to buy a home but cannot walk into a bank and qualify for a traditional mortgage today.
They then can offer that home for sale to folks who can afford to buy a home but cannot walk into a bank and qualify for a traditional mortgage today.This platform is like nothing else you've seen out there.
Please RSVP and join us at the Chattanooga REIA Main Monthly Event on Thursday, August 2nd starting from 6:30PM to 9:00PM at Hilton Garden Inn Hamilton Place located at 2343 Shallowford Village Dr, Chattanooga, TN, and Ramon will show you why “Fixing and Flipping” is much better than wholesaling. If you don’t believe it, come out and see Ramon and he will show you why he strongly believes this is true and why you should too.
You may think you know about creative financing investment strategies, but you will be blown away by the systems, processes, scripts, and essential details that make up this strategy.
Not to mention the fact that these deals average $10,000 – $25,000 each without using any of your own money or credit.
ATTENTION FLIPPERS AND REHABBERS!
As a special bonus, Mike is going to reveal a secret that not many real estate investors know or understand, but he will be unveiling his Triple YOUR Flip strategy.
When you see the math on these deals you will be shocked. Mike will explain exactly how his terms back-end system can add two, three and in some cases four-times the profit margin to your traditional flip.
Join us and you will learn…
You won’t want to miss the secrets to developing immediate and consistent cash flow in this new challenging real estate environment.
All this is happening at the Chattanooga REIA Main Monthly Event from 6:30PM to 9:30PM on Thursday, August 2nd at Hilton Garden Inn, Hamilton Place, 2343 Shallowford Village Pkwy, Chattanooga, TN.

"Why Fixing & Flipping Is Better Than Wholesaling" with Ramon Tookes at Chattanooga REIA, June 7th
By Chattanooga REIA on May 31, 2018
As the market continues to get hotter and hotter, more investors are jumping in to take advantage of the trend. Some will be successful investors and others will not. That’s just the reality of the business. Many are not successful because they don’t have the proper resources. Many are not successful because they don’t have the proper training or guidance. Many are not successful because they don’t have the right plan and/or exit strategy.
What’s your plan and/or exit strategy for your real estate investment business? Is it buying and holding? Is it wholesaling? Is it fixing and flipping? All three are very good strategies when they’re used properly, but there is a “myth” that wholesaling is the best way to start investing… but this month’s speaker, Ramon Tookes, strongly disagrees!
Please RSVP and join us at the Chattanooga REIA Main Monthly Event on Thursday, June 7th starting from 6:30PM to 9:00PM at Hilton Garden Inn Hamilton Place located at 2343 Shallowford Village Dr, Chattanooga, TN, and Ramon will show you why “Fixing and Flipping” is much better than wholesaling. If you don’t believe it, come out and see Ramon and he will show you why he strongly believes this is true and why you should too.
Join us and you will learn…
Here is your chance to learn the difference between Fixing & Flipping VS Wholesaling. If you have been feeling stuck or unsure of where to take your real estate investing ventures, RSVP NOW, JOIN US, and when you walk away, you will feel educated and even inspired to help more people solve their real estate problems!
Ramon Tookes is a real estate investor, coach, author, wealth builder, public speaker, radio celebrity and developer with 20+ years of experience in the industry. Ramon currently oversees the daily operations of The Tookes Group, a firm that he founded in 2005, specializing in real estate investment consulting.

By Chattanooga REIA on April 30, 2018

You have probably heard it in the past, you definitely will in the near future, that success in real estate investing always revolves around making written offers. Halllowed real estate investor Bill Cook even says, "making written offers is the Alpha and Omega of real estate investing".
Just what is a written offer? How do you do it? What should it include? Is it an enforceable contract? I'm sure you have numerous other questions about written offers, which is why we have as our guest presenter at our May 3rd Chattanooga REIA Main Event, writing offers practitioner and expert, Joey English.
Joey is going to show you the who, what, when and how much of making written offers.
For Example:
During this event, Joey will walk you through real world deals, how he came up with the offers, and how he got them accepted. He’ll also teach you how to confidently make creative offers to both realtors and private sellers alike so that you can have them accepted too. RSVP NOW & DON"T MISS IT!
Joey English began investing full time in 2010 along with his wife Ashley. They founded Focus Property Solutions LLC based in Calhoun, Georgia. They have had numerous real estate investing successes and follow the teachings of Jack Miller, Pete Fortunato, Bill Cook and Dyches Boddiford with a number of other investor influences.

RSVP for BIG this Thursday. Interactive Discussion, Getting Attention!
By Chattanooga REIA on April 16, 2018
This month, is our quarterly interactive discussion with ALL attendees. Do people know what you do? What can you do? If people do not know you are a real estate investor, then how could they know how you can help them? Other successful investors have a number of avenues that they have used to varying degrees of success. Come out to BIG this Thursday to hear and if you have some ideas yourself, let's hear them. This will be a fun, informative event, so RSVP now!
Please RSVP on Facebook or Meetup and then come out to the Beginning Investors Group on Thursday, April 19th at 5:30PM at Wally's Restaurant located at 6521 Ringgold Rd in East Ridge, TN.
Have you been a “real estate investor” for several months or even years without doing your first deal? What is holding you back? Fear? Lack of money? Credit Problems? Lack of Focus? Are you afraid you will screw it all up?
Why make such a big deal about your first deal? Well, it’s the hardest deal you will do, but once you get through it, your belief in yourself and real estate investing will rise dramatically. You will be on your way to becoming a true real estate investor.
BIG will have experienced local and regional investors speaking and leading interactive exercises on relevant topics on a beginners level. We also have mentors attending that can take you by the hand and can walk you through that first deal. So please join us on the 3rd Thursday of every month. Arrive around 5:30PM so you can get some delicious food at Wally's in East Ridge.
The Chattanooga REIA Beginning Investors Group (BIG) hosted by Alan McDonald, is an educational and networking special interest 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 Alan McDonald, who will be bringing in local and regional 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 this group is to help new investors get their first deal and help new again investors get their next deal!
The Beginning Investors Group meets on the 3rd Thursdays of each month from 5:30 PM to 8:15 PM at Wally's Restaurant located at 6521 Ringgold Rd, East Ridge, TN just off of I-75 at Exit 1. BIG is FREE for Chattanooga REIA Members. Guests and Not-Yet-Members will eventually pay a fee, but for now, there is no charge for anyone that attends. This is a “dinner” group and we kindly request that you buy dinner and/or drinks since Wally's 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.
