We will be meeting at MTAC Properties offices at 504 Chickamauga Ave in Rossville GA.

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, October 4th, from 6:30PM-9PM at Hilton Garden Suites, Hamilton Place, 2343 Shallowford Village Dr, Chattanooga, TN

Prepare to be surprised when you hear about mobile home investing. What could these homes that are still often thought of as “temporary” has to do with long-term moneymaking strategies? Quite a lot actually.

One unique thing that mobile homes do is it gives you the highest yields on your investment dollars and jam packs your mailbox with money. That’s right, by buying ugly, used trailers!

For example, if you buy a used mobile home in a mobile home park for around $3,000, do a quick clean up and fix up, then sell it for $9,000 with $500 down at 18% interest with payments of around $275 per month for around 4 years, The results of this simple deal are eye-popping! You can quickly turn $3,000 into $12,000 while getting a yield of around 100%! Try matching these results with ANY other type of real estate investing vehicle. And here’s the best part, you don’t need a lot of money and there is very little competition!

A common mistake many real estate investors make is comparing their know how to that of someone who’s been investing for decades, someone who has done hundreds of deals and made thousands of written offers.

Join us at our October monthly event if you want to see real-world examples – including pictures and paperwork – of what Mike and Joey do to earn their mailbox money and how they do it! There is no fluff… it will be all meat and potatoes! Make the decision NOW to attend our October 4th event and prepare to be schocked and amazed!

Bill Cook told us at Chattanooga REIA recently that real estate investing is simple, but it isn't easy. What about those people on TV that fix and flip houses? They make it look like it's a piece of cake. People, please remember, TV is for entertainment and fantasy. I will take the advice of someone who has realised their goals in life through investing much quicker than someone who is on TV just to entertain me.

As a new investor, it's a scary feeling of not knowing what to do, how much to offer, how to figure repair costs, paperwork, marketing to buy then to sell. Sounds like alot? There's even more that I can't go into here for sake of brevity.

One thing that I have seen my real estate teachers do, when they want to learn something new to them, is find someone who is already doing what they wanted to do and find a way to partner up with them. You can learn much more than any course could ever teach you when you partner up with someone with experience on a deal or a problem.

Why would an experienced investor want to partner up with me?

• Experienced investors want to do more deals
• They want to save time
• You can act as an extended sales arm of the investor
• They want to give back to the community

This Thursday, September 20th at BIG Chattanooga we will have several investors in the audience that we will interview about why they partner, who they will work with, the kind of deals they are looking for, and you will have the chance to ask them questions as well. This is not a presentation, more of a discussion or brainstorm session. You will learn much more in this manner as opposed to a teacher/class type of setup. We want you to interact, get information that you can use, be inspired and leave motivated to find and solve real estate problems.

RSVP NOW on Facebook or on Meetup and join us on Thursday, September 20th at 5:30PM at Wally's Restaurant located at 6521 Ringgold Rd in East Ridge, TN. Be sure to have a delicious supper from the menu or from the buffet at Wally's Restaurant. DO NOT MISS this event!! RSVP TODAY, and We will see YOU at BIG Chattanooga!

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 inspire and eduacate new investors to 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.

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, September 6th, from 6:30PM-9PM at Hilton Garden Suites, Hamilton Place, 2343 Shallowford Village Dr, Chattanooga, TN.

Bill Cook and Don DeRosa are both successful, been-there-and-done-that investors today. Each has been investing since the mid 1990’s. They have conducted separate successful REIA’s. They share several of the same teachers that they have learned from. There is little in real estate that they have not come across. They are both national speakers and teachers. Combined, they have more than 40 years of creative deal-making experience. Both gentlemen are highly sought-after for their advice and wisdom to help other investors find their success.

Now, imagine what they were like when they were little baby real estate investors. What did Bill and Don know about real estate investing, creative funding and entities? As they are going to demonstrate at the Chattanooga REIA Event, they didn’t know much about real estate then. You will find it hard to believe some of the things they did and even what they didn’t do. It will shock and surprise you!

How did Don and Bill survive the long, hard hours, the frustrations, the failures, and the difficulties? What kept them going when they hit numerous brick walls? Yes, they experienced trials, tribulations just like you. They also discovered some secret ingredients along the way to begin to experience success.

A common mistake many real estate investors make is comparing their know-how to that of someone who’s been investing for decades, someone who has done hundreds of deals and made thousands of written offers.

How did Bill and Don move from basic, bare-bone deals, to deals full of imagination, creativity and profit– deals that don’t involve institutional funding? What did they do that was game-changing? Make the decision NOW to attend our September 6th Event and find the answers you seek.

Here are more items you will learn from this One-Of-A-Kind Event:

Join us and you will learn…

• You’ll see one of Bill and Don’s most recent deals – how it was found, constructed, funded and what they did with it.
• Next, you’ll see one of the first deals Don and Bill did back in the 90’s. Their lack of creativity will astound you!
• What steps did Don and Bill take to prevent their failure?
• What are the top 10 reasons 90% of would-be investors fail?
• What are the best ways for you to learn about real estate investing?
• What are the top 10 things Bill and Don did that allowed them to achieve financial freedom and how you can do that too?
• Answers to your questions and much more!

Listen, there is no magic pill that will turn you into an instant real estate sage. We all learn in small, individual layers – like layers of a cake. This is one of the reasons to come to events like this one. To lean on each other and find strength, and listen to knowledge being passed on to you from the now experienced investors. Get excited and RSVP NOW!

All this is happening at the Chattanooga REIA Main Monthly Event from 6:30PM to 9:30PM on Thursday, September 6th at Hilton Garden Inn, Hamilton Place, 2343 Shallowford Village Pkwy, Chattanooga, TN.

Bill will be discussing one of the best kept secrets in the real estate investing industry… Options!

When it comes to Options, most real estate investors have only heard of lease-options. Fact is, there are many types of Options. Investors are always finding new and better ways to use them because they’re a completely different kind of tool than anything else in real estate.

Options are a right, not an obligation to purchase. What on earth does this mean? When you sign a loan, it’s an obligation. When you sign a contract, it’s an obligation. But with Options, you’re paying for the right to make up your mind to purchase on some future date. With an Option, you have a risk-free or low risk choice as to whether you’ll perform or not in the future.

Most investors have no clue how to use an Option to control a property. Don’t believe me? Ask around. Options will allow you to step above your competition because you’ll be able to make more of the impossible deals possible! REGISTER ONLINE NOW!

Bill will Show You:

• What makes options so profitable?
• How can you control a $250,000 property for just $100
• How can you use an option to capture a property’s appreciation and amortization
• Who is most likely to give you an option, a buyer or seller?
• What is the best way to secure an option?
• How can options remove any excuse you have for not being in the real estate game

Have you heard what buying houses “Subject-To” is all about? Basically, buying “Subject-To” allows you to buy a house, pretty or ugly, by taking over (NOT assuming) the seller’s existing debt on the property, often without pulling any of your own money out of your pocket or using your credit. REGISTER ONLINE NOW!

Learn how to buy houses so…

• You don’t need credit
• You don’t have to sign personally on a note
• You never have to qualify for a mortgage
• You don’t have to have any money

Beginner or experienced real estate investors can immediately begin to use the techniques you learn in this class to take your real estate investing to the next level and beyond for years to come. Don will teach you six simple steps that you can repeat over and over again for an average profit of over $25,000 per property!

• Locating Sellers
• Prescreening Sellers
• Constructing Offers
• You don’t have to have any money
• Presenting Offers
• Finding the Money
• Selling Houses

You Will Also Learn:

• How to meet with the seller and make them feel comfortable with your offer, and how to avoid getting shut out of a deal
• Find the easiest ways to attract motivated sellers
• Twenty questions you should always ask a potential seller
• Avoiding the “due on sale” clause
• Exit strategies that will not only make you lots of money today but make you wealthy long term

During this event, Don will give you practical tips you can use every day along with real life examples. Be prepared to be blown away by what this amazing “Subject-To” technique, coupled with today’s technology, can do for you NOW and well into the future.

Be Sure to bring your iPad, Tablet or Smartphone!

I asked my good friend, David Minor, to join us on the next Beginning Investors Group Online webinar on Tuesday, August 28th at 7PM ET tell you his story on how he went from being a stranger in town with very little money, no real estate experience and no deals, to being one of the biggest wholesalers in Tampa, FL in under 2 very short years.

On the webinar, I asked David to tell you how he got started just a few years ago and how he and his business Vesado became successful so quickly in a highly competitive market like Tampa, FL dominated by our friends at New Western Acquisitions, NetWorth Realty, Homevestors and others to numerous to mention.

I also asked David to tell you, that if he had to start all over again from zero, knowing what he knows now, what if anything he might do differently in 2018 to start anew.

If you want to learn to go from zero to hero from someone who has been there and done that and was in your shoes just a few short years ago, register for the webinar now at BIGO.co and join us on Tuesday, August 28th at 7PM ET to learn how you can do it!

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.

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…

• How to find and qualify leads, and put sellers under contract using their one-of-a-kind script and approach.
• How to overcome common seller objections and rebuttals.
• Real deal examples, walking you through from A to Z, from contract to close.

This month at BIG Chattanooga, we will be reviewing and discussing the previous two month's topics. In May, we had Joey English showing us multiple aspects of the Purchase and Sale Agreement, and for June, we had Larry Harbolt discussing about How to solve the sellers real estate problem, not replace ourselves in the sellers position.

If you attended either or both these events, bring your notes, your questions, and your examples if you practiced anything that Joey or Larry spoke about. If you did not attend one or both events, come on down to Wally's anyhow. You will more than likely learn something new and or have an "A-HA!" moment that will help you in your real estate endeavors.

These interactive discussions are a new step in your real estate education. We want you there when the topics are presented of course, however, we did not discuss them as a group. That has now changed and for the better. Questions that you didn't have at the event, but thought of them afterwards, or perhaps you used one or several techniques our presenters offered and you would like to share them with the group. This WILL be encouraged because we all can learn from each other.

RSVP NOW on Facebook or on Meetup and join us on Thursday, July 19th at 5:30PM at Wally's Restaurant located at 6521 Ringgold Rd in East Ridge, TN. Be sure to have a delicious supper from the menu or from the buffet at Wally's Restaurant. DO NOT MISS this event!! RSVP TODAY, and We will see YOU at BIG Chattanooga!

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 problem solver.

BIG will have experienced local and regional investors speaking and leading interactive exercises on relevant topics on a beginners level. 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 inspire and eduacate new investors to 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.
