Talking to Sellers & Making Written Offers on May 14, 2015 with Bill Cook
Posted on April 20, 2015 byat the Doubletree Suites Tampa Bay
with Special Guest Speaker, Bill Cook
Tampa REIA Members Can Attend at No Charge.
Guests Can RSVP Online Now for $15 or Pay $20 at the Door.
Tampa REIA Members Please RSVP on Meetup.com
if you have a meetup account.
Many people have been asking for it, and we are excited to announce that Bill Cook will be our special guest speaker this month at our main monthly meeting on Thursday, May 14th at 6PM at the Doubletree Suites Tampa Bay located at 3050 North Rocky Point Dr West in Tampa, FL. Bill will be teaching us how to talk with sellers and make profitable, written offers on the spot.
When you meet with a seller, do you know what to say? Do you know the most important questions to ask? Can you make a written offer right there on the spot?
Again: Do you know how to make a written offer right there on the spot?
The #1 reason most would-be real estate investors fail is because of F-E-A-R! The fear of not knowing what to say, and the fear of a seller’s reaction to a low offer. What if you could make a safe, full-price offer to every seller?
How can you tell if fear is holding YOU back? Here’s an easy test: 1) How many sellers have you met with this month? 2) This year? If YOUR numbers are less than YOU think they should be, why are they less? Are you even tracking these two most-important numbers?
Remember: The alpha and omega of successful real estate investing is getting face-to-face with sellers and making a lot of written offers!
Do you want to SEE how to do this in action? Do you want to SEE where the best deals are right now? At Tampa REIA’s meeting on May 14th, Bill Cook will explain what he says to a seller, and how he makes a written offer right there on the spot!
Sure Bill can talk the talk, but he also walks the walk!
But wait… there’s more…
Get ready for something VERY special…something almost no real estate investing teacher will do. On Saturday, May 16th, Bill will spend the day with a select group of investors in neighborhoods SHOWING YOU how he knocks on homeowners’ doors, gets 8 out of 10 sellers to invite him in, and how he makes written offers right there on the spot!
When was the last time you spent the day with an experienced dealmaker getting face-to-face with sellers and making written offers in the real world? Ever?
Will you learn something new at the May 14th and 16th events? You bet! Will you see things you’ve never seen before? Positively! Will you be able to take what you’ve learned and put it to use the next day? Absolutely!
Bill & Kim Cook have been investing in real estate for more than twenty years! They’ve built their business square on the back of knocking on sellers’ doors. They have tons of experience at creatively constructing and funding win-win deals. Their investing portfolio is made up of single-family rental homes, mobile homes, a small mobile home park, plus notes and options.
10 Things You’ll Learn At The Meeting:
- The #1 cause of investor failure
- The two most important things an investor must do to succeed
- How to conquer the fear of meeting with a seller
- The most important thing you see at a seller’s house
- What is an offer – how is it different from a purchase contract
- How to write a win-win offer
- The difference between a terms offer and a price offer
- The two most important tools that every real estate investor needs to carry
- Is it crazy to offer $1 million for a $125,000 house – bet the answer will shock you!
- Those attending get a FREE copy of Bill’s Offer Form
Several people missed out on hearing Bill speak the last time he was here and have been asking when he was coming back for over a year now. Do not miss the opportunity to learn from this amazing and successful real estate investor!

Tampa REIA Main Meeting on February 12th on Short Sales & Pre-Foreclosures with Kimberlee Frank
Posted on February 1, 2015 byat the Doubletree Suites Tampa Bay
With Short Sales!
with Special Guest, Kimberlee Frank
Tampa REIA Members Can Attend at No Charge.
Guests Can RSVP Online Now for $15 or Pay $20 at the Door.
Join us at Tampa REIA on Thursday, February 12th at 6:00 PM at the Doubletree Suites Tampa Bay located at 3050 North Rocky Point Dr West in Tampa, FL with our special guest, Kimberlee Frank, who is a Florida Real Estate Broker/Agent, active Real Estate Investor, Author, Trainer, Mentor; and Short Sale and Negotiating Expert.
Perhaps you’ve read Kimberlee’s column in The Profit Newsletter called “Foreclosures Gone Wild”. Perhaps you even considered pursuing short sales as one of your real estate investment strategies, but avoided doing them because “others” have told you what a pain they can be. Well, Kimberlee is Still Makin’ Money with Short Sales, so why can’t you? And she and her Student Partners have less competition, because Investors are listening to people, the wrong people, who say short sales are impossible. That’s a LIE! She’s working on a deal right now that she and her Student Partners short saled and now they are rehabbing it for a profit of $65,000. Does this interest you at all?? Please be sure to join Kimberlee at our next Tampa REIA meeting where she is going to set the record straight about short sales and how you can profit handsomely, when you know how to do them right.
Kimberlee is going to spend the evening updating us on the current state of the short sale industry, the pros and cons of doing short sales, and her tricks of what’s working now and what’s not. She is going to break down the whole short sale process step-by-step and tell you how you can make profits of $20,000 or more without spending nearly as much time doing the deal as you might think.
And for those who are really interested in pursuing the Big Income from short sales and pre-foreclosures as a serious life-changing strategy, Kimberlee will be back with us on Saturday, February 14th, for a full day workshop called “Foreclosures Gone Wild.” Attend both trainings and walk away with a new plan of attack for your 2015 income! We hope to see you at the meeting and the workshop!
*Please Note: Meeting agenda is subject to change.
