Hello Everyone! Please join us on Tuesday, July 16th at 1:00 PM for the Tampa REIA Onsite Renovation Group (ORG) hosted by Jim Miera, to learn all about finding, funding, fixing, and flipping houses (or holding) for big profits.

Join us on July 16th at 1PM at 5215 101st Ave N, Pinellas Park, FL for another great rehab learning opportunity where we will feature some creative tricks of the trade to add value to your rehabs!

This rehab project, being managed by Kevin Mika, is a block house with unique character that was built in 1962 and is a 1 bedroom, 1 bath being converted to a 2 bedroom home. This 815 sq feet house is getting a new roof, new a/c and a whole new personality and is 20% complete!

We all look forward to sharing the story, facts & figures as this house also has some unique financing too! Don’t miss this new exciting on-site case study! RSVP Now on Meetup or Facebook and we will see you there!

The Tampa REIA Onsite Renovation Group is an exciting new educational and networking group that focuses on the acquisition, renovation and retail resale (fix & flip) or rental (buy & hold) of single or multi family residential homes in the Tampa Bay Area. The purpose of the group is to allow both new and experienced rehabbers and investors to meet, network, share knowledge and learn from each others successes and mistakes while getting “hands on” experience at real rehab properties.

The Onsite Renovation Group meets on the 3rd Tuesday of each month at 1:00PM at an active renovation site, build site or rental property which will vary from month to month and be announced prior to the meeting on the Tampa REIA Calendar.

Come join us to learn how to rehab houses for big profits the right way… you will be glad you did!

There are three basic reasons businesses fail, Management, marketing and money. During this month’s meeting I will be showing you how to find all the money you need from people sitting right next to you when you did didn’t even know it.

During this meeting, I’m going to show you that four out of every 10 people you meet have the potential to be your private lender even though you don’t even realize it.

I will discuss the “Do’s and Don’ts” of borrowing money from private individuals. Often times you hear people say “you don’t need money to buy real estate” and although this is true, the reality is that it is so much easier with money.

So, if you’re interested in finding out how you can find all the private lenders you can get your hands on, then be sure to attend this session. Here’s just a few of the things that I will discuss…

• How to create an elevator speech
• What to say and what not to say to Potential private lenders
• How to structure of them
• How to find them with a few simple questions

These are just a few of the questions I will be answering, so please come out and join me at 5PM if you want to learn how to get private individuals to lend you money to fund your deals.

At 5:00 PM in the Main Lobby, we have a Vendor Trade Show that lasts throughout the meeting where you can come out and meet many of our participating Business Members and Vendor Guests who help sponsor our meeting. See a full list of our vendors and sponsors below as they are added.
