Buying Houses Subject-To Online Workshop on May 23, 2020
Posted on May 10, 2020 byThe MOST POWERFUL Way on the Planet to Buy Houses With None of Your Own Cash or Credit!
with Don DeRosa & Dustin Griffin
Register at AREIA.us/Sub2
The real estate market is and has always been a very competitive industry, but with the looming global Covid-19 crisis and with lenders beginning to increase their lending requirements, there is going to be a major change in our market.
The days of the Seller being in control and able to sell their house at will and for top dollar is rapidly changing.
With over 33 million people filing for unemployment, this will certainly impact the dynamics of what options the Seller has when trying to sell their house. Inventory will begin to climb and houses will begin to sit on the market which in turn will create higher foreclosures for banks and a more challenging experience for Sellers trying to sell their house FAST.
However, that shouldn’t stop you from fulfilling your dreams of being a real estate investor. In fact, this is exactly the type of economy where Real Estate Millionaires are made. True wealth in real estate comes from buying low and selling high. This will be the perfect opportunity for any investor that understand this fact to make money in the next few years. But, only if you understand how to buy houses with little to no money or credit.
If you really want to make money in real estate, then don’t do what everyone else is doing. Do something different. Do something that few people know how to do. That something is buying houses “Subject To”.
In this New environment, the Seller will be looking for alternatives if they can’t sell their house for all cash. That alternative is selling “Subject To”.
Buying “Subject To” is when the Seller conveys the title of their property to you via a Warranty Deed (ownership), but the note and security instrument (mortgage or security deed) stays in the Seller’s name and then you simply make their ongoing payments.
This technique allows you as the investor to OWN properties without having to go down to the bank and qualify for them like a traditional sale.
On Saturday, May 23rd, we will be showing you how to buy properties with little to no money out of your pocket and not having to use your personal credit. Learning how to buy “Subject To” is by far the MOST POWERFUL real estate technique on the planet. It allows you to control millions of dollars’ worth of real estate with next to no money or credit. At this online workshop, we will show you:
- How to find these diamonds in the rough
- How to evaluate each deal
- How to structure a deal in less than 10 minutes, so you make a minimum of 20K profit
- How to use my simple formula to know exactly what to offer the Seller
- What to say to the homeowner to get them to say yes
- What questions to ask
- What paperwork is needed
- How to make sure you are protected
- How to find the money to buy every deal you want
- And many more nuggets
So, if you want to learn how to put this SUPER POWERFUL technique in your real estate tool belt, then you don’t want to miss this event. Learn it today so you don’t look back 5 years from now and say “I could have made a lot of money back in 2020 if I had learned how to do that!” Don’t make this mistake… Act TODAY and make the future you’ve always dreamed of!

If You Own Any Properties in Your Own Name, You Have A Huge Target on Your Back the Size of Georgia!
The real estate market is and has always been a very competitive industry, but with the looming global Covid-19 crisis and with lenders beginning to increase their lending requirements, there is going to be a major change in our market.
Fact: 1 in every 12 people in this country will be involved in a lawsuit this year.
Fact: Frivolous lawsuits are a $5 Billion Dollar business affecting many unsuspecting and innocent people each year.
Fact: Every year at least 40,000,000 (forty million) lawsuits are filed throughout this country costing us millions of dollars.
Over the years I have figured out different ways to use the Land Trusts to keep your personal real estate business information confidential while at the same time using a trust to wholesale houses acquired from banks and government agencies.
If you act now before its too late, it will be nearly impossible to find out exactly what you own and where your treasures are located.
Why not make it a guessing game for anyone that wants to sue you trying to figure out what you own and what your real estate portfolio is worth? If you use the Land Trust correctly, they will never know for sure what properties you own, or if you own any properties at all.
Ask Yourself These Questions:
- Do you need to be sure that your heirs can transfer title to your properties as they see fit without being tied up in probate?
- Do you need to protect your property from liens and judgments caused by issues that are not your fault, such as those from business partners, ex-spouses or other family members?
- Do you want your investment properties to be better protected from lawsuits that may arise from an auto accident for which you are unjustly sued?
- Do you want to keep liens or judgments related to your property from being reported to your personal credit report?
- Do you want to keep governmental inspectors, regulators or corporate investigators from knowing where all of the properties you own are located, and possibly linking a problem at one property to all of the others you own?
If You Answered YES to Any of These Questions You NEED to Know More About How the Land Trust Can Help Protect You From Lawsuit Happy America!
Join me, Larry Harbolt, on Saturday, May 30th from 9AM to 5PM at the LAND TRUST ONLINE WORKSHOP with Atlanta REIA.
Here is some of what you will learn at the Land Trust Online Workshop…
- What Is a Land Trust and What Does It Do to Help Make You Invisible and Protect You?
- Why Owning a Property in a Land Trust Keeps What You Own Private?
- How to Own Multiple Properties without Anyone Ever Knowing.

Brian Lauchner
Posted on May 7, 2020 by
Brian purchased his first piece of real estate in 2008. Making the leap out of the financial software industry, he jumped full time into real estate as a wholesaler and rehabber.
Gaining traction as a wholesaler, Brian expanded into other strategies including land trades, private lending, rentals, and buying/selling on terms through owner finance. He’s seen first-hand how becoming a deal architect is required to get deals done at today’s seller’s “kitchen table”.
Brian also realized the reality of wealth building using real estate secured assets which inspired him to dream of connecting people and educating others so they too can build wealth using real estate. Brian has been teaching and consulting investors since 2017 and is very excited to bring his passion and experience to the NoteSchool team.
Brian is a family man first, he’s married to his high school sweet-heart Chelsea, and has two amazing kids that drive him to be a change-agent in the world.
