How to attract all the private money you need, to buy all the real estate you want.

There is more capital out there, right now, seeking a home, than in any other time in our lifetime. And what’s more is that people have a huge amount of their savings in cash, or highly liquid assets. Further, more investors are turning to alternative assets classes such as real estate in order to boost the yields they achieve on their savings and retirement accounts. How do you find these people, and how do you get them to invest in YOU?

The three main points I will be covering:

1. All the capital you could ever want is out there waiting for you.

2. There are simple concepts to successfully attracting capital.

3. With the proper presentation & attitude you can quickly attract capital to execute your real estate strategies and achieve your goals

What you will hear:

• How to make yourself attractive to private money.

• How to find equity investors, and how (and why) to work with a hard money lender.

• Where to go to meet people with money to invest.

• 100% OPM (Other People’s Money) – Why you should be using a combination of a private money debt and equity.

“ahh, I loved it.”

M.R.

“It was a great class . . . I liked the way you went on the overall process from end to end. The spreadsheet was also pretty good. 

I wish we could go a little more in depth on the analysis – what other metrics beside the three you presented are important, for example.”

G.A.

“Thank you for the lecture last night! It was highly beneficial and helped me refine the details.

Most beneficial was the detailed review on how to evaluate a property and see all the available materials. “

Z.W.

“I think the class cover pretty thoroughly the different aspects of investment. although I have gone through some of them, it is still very helpful to walk through in details again. What was beneficial most is the information you provide on how to collect data and do research on the area, the properties,  how to make one to one comparison on the investment properties,  as well as organize them financially.”

H.R.

“The class was great an I had a great time; I liked that we went over the process in a very organized way, which left almost no room for questions. Seeing the documents was very helpful and having a hands on experience in researching a property was valuable as well . . .”

S.R.

“The class last night was definitely very helpful! The cash-flow excel breakdown is definitely the critical piece missing previously! ”
