&lt;img src="http://atlantareia.com/images/speakers/mark-jackson.jpg" style="text-align: right;float: right;margin-left: 15px;"&gt;Atlanta REIA is excited to announce that real estate appraiser and founder of Investor Comps Online, Mark Jackson, will be our special guest speaker at our Atlanta REIA Main Meeting on Monday, May 6th. In his presentation, Mark will be answering the first two questions EVERY real estate investor should be asking when evaluating a potential deal:
"How much can I acquire this house for?"
and more importantly... "How much can I sell it for?"
As an investor, having accurate comparable sales data AND KNOWING WHAT TO DO WITH IT is going to affect nearly EVERY aspect of EVERY single deal you ever do. It's one thing to have access to comps, but if you don't know how to use that information, it's not going to do you any good. So Mark is going to show us how to use this data to analyze potential deals the right way.
httpvh://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kYQqDL4LNcU
Mark will also introduce you to Atlanta REIA's new "REIAComps.com" evaluation system which provides valuation analysis for most homes in the U.S., as well as ongoing training that will help you become a valuation EXPERT in no time.
Mark will show you how to access the BEST comparable sales date in Atlanta and for ALL the major markets across the country WHEREVER you are, all from REIAComps.com!
So come out an join us on Monday, May 6th at 5PM at the Crown Plaza Ravinia where Mark will be sharing his timely message to help Atlanta REIA's members, friends and followers discover "what you don't know about comparable data in your market area" so you can evaluate real estate deals more effectively and maximize your profits while minimizing your losses. Get ready for a game changing evening! We hope to see you there!

      <title>Learn to Earn Mailbox Money with Bill Cook at Atlanta REIA Feb 4, 2013</title>
      <description>Mon, February 4th at 5:30 PM @ Crowne Plaza Ravinia, AtlantaAtlanta REIA Main Meetingwith Bill Cook on"How to Earn Mail Box Money"at the Crowne Plaza Ravinia on February 4th
Atlanta REIA Members Can Attend at No Charge.Guests Can RSVP Online Now for $15 or Pay $20 at the Door.
&lt;img src="http://atlantareia.com/images/speakers/bill-cook.jpg" style="text-align: right;float: right;margin-left: 15px;"&gt;Atlanta REIA is very excited to announce that local real estate investing expert and leader of North Georgia REIA, Bill Cook, will be speaking at our Atlanta REIA Main Meeting on February 4th at the Crowne Plaza Ravinia in Atlanta which starts at 5:30 PM.
Bill Cook and his wife Kim have been investing in real estate in Georgia for over 18 years. They own a fair number of single-family rental homes, they flip houses, plus they do a lot of note and option deals. But the one unique thing they do that gives them the highest yields on their investment dollars and jam packs their mailbox with money is their mobile home investments… that's right, they buy ugly, used trailers!
&lt;img src="http://atlantareia.com/images/videos/bill-cook-feb-4-2013.jpg" border="0"&gt;
For example, they 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! They 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!
Join us at our February meeting if you want to see real-world examples - including pictures and paperwork - of what Bill and Kim do to earn their mailbox money and how they do it! There is no fluff… it will be all meat and potatoes!
Why do Lonnie Deals?
What is a Lonnie Deal and how does it work?
How do you find the right mobile homes to buy?
Which mobile home deals should you avoid?
How to work with park owners?
How to find sellers?
How to buy a "trailer"?
How to sell a "mobile home"?
What to do if the buyer doesn’t pay you?
When is the best time to do Lonnie Deals?
Examples of real deals that Bill and Kim have done...
And much more!
Come spend the evening with Bill on February 4th and let him teach you how to earn all the mailbox money you can handle in 2013! Also, be sure to check out Bill's two latest articles on mobile home investing:

America is on sale right now and if you're not making obscene amounts of money in real estate right now, you're missing the best opportunity of your lifetime to get rich. Come spend the evening with Ron where he will teach you can make 2013 your most profitable year ever! You will learn about...
Making Big Money With No Money Or Credit – Ron will show you where the big money is in real estate and how you can get it with NO money, credit or risk on your part.
Making Huge Profits On Over Leveraged Houses – Ron will show you how to control houses without ownership and make a minimum of $5,000 per house 3 to 4 times a month.
Getting Rich In Your IRA and Pay No Taxes – Ron will teach you how to use real estate to grow your IRA to a MILLION DOLLARS in less than five years without you ever personally contributing another dime.
Where To Find The Best Deals Even With Hot Competition – Ron will show you the best tool he's ever used to absolutely ensure you never struggle to find deals and it only costs pennies to implement.
Where To Get The Money To Buy Bank-Owned Deals– Since banks require cash to purchase their properties, Ron will show you where to get the cash to buy bank-owned homes that won't come from other banks or require credit or qualification.
Purchasing a Beautiful New Home for Your Family – Ron will show you how you can purchase a new home for your family in the next 45 days and never fill out an application, apply for a loan, or put up a down payment.

Foreclosure &amp;amp; Short Sale Groupwith Bob Massey
&lt;img src="http://atlantareia.com/images/speakers/bob-massey.jpg" style="text-align: right;float: right;margin-top:5px;margin-left: 15px;"&gt;On January 7th at 3 PM, Bob Massey will be having his quarterly meeting at Total Wine &amp;amp; More located at 124 Perimeter Center W (see map). Bob will be giving a presentation you don't want to miss! He is going to be going over the details of a $875,000 short sale he just closed that most investors would have abandoned months ago. Instead of giving up, he modified his strategies and ended up making more than if everything had gone according to the original plan! He is also going to be discussing mortgage fraud, securitization issues, and foreclosures. The banks have been defrauding homeowners for years, and we now have a way to use that to fight back against the banks and do some pretty incredible deals while helping underwater homeowners across the country.

Atlanta REIA Main Meetingwith David Tilney on Property Managementat the Crowne Plaza Ravinia on November 5th Atlanta REIA Members Can Attend at No Charge.Guests Can RSVP Online Now for $10 or Pay $20 at the Door.
&lt;img src="http://atlantareia.com/images/speakers/david-tilney.jpg" style="text-align: right;float: right;margin-left: 15px;"&gt;We are excited to announce Property Management Expert, David Tilney, will be our guest speaker at Atlanta REIA on November 5th at the Crowne Plaza Ravinia Hotel located at 4355 Ashford Dunwoody Road in Atlanta, GA. David has been involved in the real estate business since 1978 and property management since 1981. He has invested in rentals, notes, foreclosures, tax sales, IRS liens and leasehold interests. David has become the "go to" guy for management of single family homes and loves being a landlord. He looks forward to hearing from his tenants, but often feels like the Maytag repairman who rarely gets a call.
As a landlord or a potential landlord, do you have questions on any of the following issues?
Security deposits
Property showings
Rent collection and late fees
Lease vs. month-to-month
Property inspections
Fair Housing
Re-keying locks
"Make-ready's" and capital improvements
Pets
Applicant screening &amp;amp; background checks
Rent increases
Evictions
Tenant property damage
If you answered "Yes" to any of these issues, be sure to attend the Atlanta REIA Meeting on November 5th and be part of the discussion! David will answer questions, brainstorm problems and force you to think about your rental business in new ways. He will share ideas about how to increase income, decrease expenses and generate more free time.
Here's what a few local real estate experts have to say about David Tilney...
"If you are going to be successful in real estate investing, you need to have good landlording skills. David Tilney has the best landlording system around and is well worth learning, if you are a serious investor." - Dyches Boddiford
David is a wonderful teacher... a real been-there-and-done-that landlording guy. He teaches like no one else. His ideas are unique. David will help you become a better, smarter, more successful landlord." - Bill Cook

Never Step Into a Bank Again!And Buy All the Houses You Will Ever Need to Become Independently Wealthy! with Special Guest, Larry Harbolt
Are You A New Investor Who Doesn’t Know Where To Start? Or, An Old Salt Who Can’t Find Deals – Or You Can’t Find Cheap Enough Money to Buy Properties?
&lt;img src="http://tampareia.com/images/speakers/larry-harbolt.jpg" style="text-align: right;float: right;margin-left: 15px;"&gt;The Truth is many investors only know one way to buy property... with Cash. And now that banks are not lending to just anyone, where do investors turn? The investor today is likely dead in the water unless they know how to Buy with Creative Owner Financing and learn how to Sell with Creative Owner Financing. Larry Harbolt has over 30-plus years of experience doing just that. That is why he has been called the Master at teaching how to buy houses with No Money and No Credit using Creative Owner Financing.
Larry will be with us at our Tampa REIA Main Monthly Meeting on September 13th and again for a full-day Saturday Training Workshop on September 15th for what could prove to be a career changing and life altering event for you, your family and your business.
How would you like to be able to buy 3 to 6 properties a month without using your own credit or any real money? What would that do for your lifestyle if you could churn out 5, 10 to 25 houses a year making money – helping others get started? All it takes is the proper training and the dedication to get the job done. That is exactly what Larry will do for you. Larry is going to teach you how to:
Wholesale at Lightning Speed = Pay off Debts &amp;amp; Stable Cash Flow!
Buy Properties Without Banks! = No Credit and No Money
Become Wealthy Owning Properties That Are Paid Off in 8.3 Years!
Create Non Recourse Financing and Never Gamble Again!
Sell at Lightning Speed! Don’t Be a Puppet to a Bankers Whim!
Become Wealthy and Be Done in 3-5 Years!

The Ultimate Fast Track to YourBusiness Success WorkshopA Full Day Workshop &amp;amp; Strategy Sessionwith Larry Harbolt on Sept 15th, 2012
&lt;img src="http://tampareia.com/images/speakers/larry-harbolt.jpg" style="text-align: right;float: right;margin-left: 15px;"&gt;Right now is the best time in modern history to buy real estate. Join Larry Harbolt on Saturday, September 15, 2012, and he will share with you his secrets on how to make money in today's real estate market. Larry will show you what you really need to know to buy real estate profitably with only $10 down, even if you have bad credit or are bankrupt!
At this workshop, you will learn:
Buy real estate profitably in any market or economic cycle.
Learn how to buy real estate when you have No money.
Buy real estate when you have No good credit.
Learn how to create the terms to make cash today.
Learn how to overcome seller objections like a pro.
Learn the right questions that will create Golden Deals.
How to create extra profit out of thin air on most of your deals.
Never have to beg for or apply for a loan again.
How to buy and sell all the property you want and never use a bank.
How to structure offers with no payments or interest and get the seller to gladly accept. This will drive your cash flow through the roof.
Why you can buy millions of dollars in real estate and never have a debt show on your credit report or be personally liable for a penny.
Build your income stream, like the banks have, acquire free assets, without investing a dime.
How to change the terms of the loan months or years after the closing and make the seller ecstatic to do so.
Build an empire from monthly cash flow and cure negative cash flow – The secret only a handful of people know how to do.
Big profits from the "deal after the deal". All seller-financed deals have back end profit centers if structured properly, and will cost you a fortune not knowing them.
How a few carefully chosen words you can easily master in minutes can potentially earn you big paydays when you're ready to cash out your seller.
Come and join Larry on Saturday, September 15th, 2012 for The Ultimate Fast Track to Your Business Success Workshop. Bring a new pad and a couple sharp pencils because Larry promises you will leave with New Methods, Processes and Systems that are Efficient, Effective and WHEN YOU WILL Learn them can be measured by the NEW CASH in YOUR bank account.

Atlanta REIA North Meetingwith Real Estate Appraiser, Donn MyersOn How to Accurately Determine Property Values
&lt;img src="http://atlantareia.com/images/articles/property-values.jpg" style="text-align: left;float: left;margin-top:5px;margin-right: 15px;"&gt;One of the biggest challenges facing both new and seasoned investors in today's ever changing real estate market is to be able to accurately determining a property's current market value. This is especially true with all the short sales, foreclosures, REOs and shadow inventory out there affecting property values. In the current market it is critical to be able to look at pricing objectively and avoid overpaying for a property. So how can you accurately determine a property's value you that you want to purchase and/or resell?
&lt;img src="http://atlantareia.com/images/speakers/donn-myers.jpg" style="text-align: right;float: right;margin-top:5px;margin-left: 15px;"&gt;You can start by joining us at this month's Atlanta REIA North Meeting on Wednesday, May 16th at 6:30 PM at 1960 Skylar Hill Dr, Suite D, Buford, GA with special guest and seasoned appraiser, Donn Myers, who will share his insights and experience with you. Donn evaluates properties for banks, mortgage lenders, asset managers, investors as well as doing appraisals and review appraisals for federal institutions. Donn has years of experience as a residential and commercial appraiser as well as an investor and is a longtime REIA member. Join us at the meeting where Donn will be discussing:
How is the current economy affecting the appraisal process?
How do you tell when a neighborhood has "bottomed out"
Are appraisers using REO's and Foreclosures as comps?
Can the appraiser use FSBO's as comps?
How current must the comps be?
Must the sale comps be in the same neighborhood as the subject property?
What outside pressures are influencing the appraiser?
How reliable are the free valuation web sites?
How can investors accurately determine the Current Market Value(CMV) of a property?
How can investors best determine the After Repaired Value(ARV) of a property?
What are the institutional investors currently buying?
What yardsticks are the institutional investors using to determine their purchase prices?
Answers to your burning questions and much more!
