How to Make a Flipping Fortune Wholesaling Crappy Houses
Watch the Webinar Replay
with Don DeRosa

Don DeRosaDon DeRosa is a part time real estate investor trainer and mentor and full-time real estate investor who actively buys, sells and holds properties each month for fun, profit and long term cash flow.

The topic of our next webinar is “Wholesaling Houses” which is the business of buying houses in need of major repairs at really low prices and selling them to other “fix and flip” or “buy and hold” investors at wholesale prices. In other words, finding bargains for bargain hunters.

Wholesaling is a great strategy for making quick cash with very low risk and without using any of your own cash, income or credit. Because of this, wholesaling real estate is one of the quickest and easiest ways to get started investing in real estate because anyone can do it with a little training and effort.

If you want to learn more about Wholesaling, watch this Webinar Replay we recorded live with Don DeRosa on April 13th, 2016 where he shared the Wholesaling Strategies you need to succeed and take you step-by-step through the entire wholesale process.

What Box???
A Full Day Creative Real Estate Investing Workshop with Bill Cook
April 16th from 9AM-5PM
Doubletree Suites Tampa Bay
3050 N Rocky Point Dr W, Tampa, FL

Bill CookReal Estate Investors in the know, understand that to be successful, it’s NOT about working outside the box. It’s realizing that THERE IS NO BOX!

Be sure to join us on Saturday, April 16th at 9AM at the DoubleTree Suites Tampa Bay at 3050 N Rocky Point Dr W in Tampa, FL for a Full Day Workshop with Creative Real Estate Expert, Bill Cook. At the Workshop, Bill is going to help you think through deals that seem impossible and show you how all deals are possible!

This nothing-else-like-it seminar was born with a phone call. Bill Cook was working a deal that had six moving parts. Trying to simplify his offer, Bill called his good friend Pete Fortunato. Pete helped Bill construct an offer that reduced the moving parts from six down to two. The seller accepted Bill’s offer!

Afterward, Bill wrote a newspaper column titled: Pete Fortunato – The Greatest Outside The Box Thinker. When Pete read Bill’s article, he sent him a two-word email. All it said was: What Box?

The lesson: All deals are possible – There is no box!

An investor’s two most powerful tools are curiosity and imagination. If kept in a box, both will die! To thrive, your curiosity and imagination must be allowed to run free so they can creatively construct and fund win-win deals.

Remember: Deals aren’t found. Opportunities are found. Deals are constructed!

One of the biggest problems investors face is trying to put together deals using boilerplate thinking and boilerplate documents. Sadly – for most investors – if the square peg isn’t fitting in the round hole, they give up on the deal. Their inside-the-box thinking keeps them from achieving the huge success that’s right at their fingertips!

Attend this event and get these all-important questions answered:

  • How do you make impossible deals possible?
  • How do you creatively construct and fund win-win deals without going to banks?
  • What’s the fastest, cheapest and most effective way to get face-to-face with sellers?
  • What are the most important questions to ask a seller?
  • What’s the most important thing you see at a seller’s home?
  • Why do sellers NOT want cash?
  • Why do single-family homes make the best rentals?
  • How can you get an 80% yield from a mobile home?
  • Why is the deal after the deal so important to future wealth!
  • What types of deals are working in today’s market?
  • Why is real estate investing a team sport?

Get all this for a mere $49 per person for Gold Members, $69 per person for Silver Members & $99 per person for Non-Members and Guests.

Register Now!

PLEASE NOTE: Workshop prices will increase to $69/person for Gold Members, $89/person for Silver Members and $129/person for Non-Members and guests after early registration expires, so register now and save!
