Don DeRosaJoin Don DeRosa every month at 5PM SHARP at our Meeting-Before-the-Meeting that we like to call the High Tech Home Buying Creative Deal Structuring Subgroup one hour BEFORE the Tampa REIA Main Monthly Event.

There is nothing worse than losing a deal because you didn’t know the right things to say when negotiating with the seller. Does the fear of this happening prevent you from achieving your goals? Negotiating may seem scary to many people because they are afraid of offending the seller and don’t want to go in with a “low-ball” offer. Don DeRosa is here to help!

Don is a leading expert on negotiations and he wants to share with you what he knows to help you overcome your fears and achieve your goals. On Thursday, Don will be teaching:

  • 3 variables to every negotiation
  • How to recognize non-verbal clues and use them to your advantage
  • How to plan and gather information for successful negotiations
  • How to use state of the art tools to do all your negotiating for you

Negotiating does not have to be something that makes you shudder. Don’t miss this great opportunity to learn about successful negotiating from an expert real estate investor who negotiates killer deals every day!

Each month, Don will teach you about different real estsate investing purchase and sale strategies to put more money in your pocket as as well as state-of-the-art tools and techniques you’ll use to evaluate deals and figure out how to make them work. You’ll learn to work less and earn more so you can spend more time where you want, when you want and with whom you want.

If so, please join us Wed at 6:30PM at the Property Protege Group hosted by Don DeRosa and Dustin Griffin. This Month we meet at the 1727 Coachman Plaza Dr, Clearwater, FL at 6:30PM.

ALL TAMPA REIA MEMBERS ARE WELCOME TO ATTEND THEIR FIRST PPG MEETING AT NO CHARGE, but seating is extremely limited, so arrive early to get a seat.

In a competitive market it is absolutely essential that you understand how to make offers very very quickly. It could mean the difference between a complete waste of your time because someone beat you to it,or the deal of a lifetime.

Understanding your numbers and your ability to quickly assess ARV (After Repair Value), repairs, holding costs and selling costs are the corner stones of every successful real estate business. Knowing how to do this and do it accurately is not very difficult. However, doing it accurately and QUICKLY is something totally different.

In this session, we are going to show you how to not only figure out what your ARV is quickly and accurately as possible, but also show you how you can make offers lightning fast. We’re also going to show you how to run your entire business from the palm of your hands.

Becoming a mobile real estate investor is more important now than ever before. Being able to do your due diligence, evaluate properties, sign contracts and manging everything from contract to close right in the palm of your hands is no longer just a nice thing to have. It is now an essential part of every real estate investor. It will give you the edge that you need in a very competitive market place.

We will show you:

  • What are the most important questions to ask sellers every time you meet them (16 to be exact)
  • How to determine After Repair Value in seconds
  • How to SWAG repairs lightning fast so you can get your house under contract before anyone else
  • How to sign contracts, order title and finish all your paperwork before you ever leave the sellers house
  • How to perform hours of due diligence in minutes just by a few clicks of a button
  • How to find sellers in seconds
  • How to eliminate old antiquated filing systems and put it in the palm of your hands
  • How to never lose information every again
  • Plus a whole lot more…

If you want to take your real estate business to the next level, then you don’t want to miss this meeting. We look forward to seeing you there!

Expert Negotiating Tactics
The Ultimate 1 Day Workshop on How to Easily Negotiate with Sellers to Create Win-Win Situations!
A Full Day Workshop with Don DeRosa
Saturday, November 16th, 8AM-6PM
Ramada Tampa Westshore
1200 N Westshore Blvd, Tampa, FL

“I like to think of sales as the ability to gracefully persuade, not manipulate, a person or persons into a win-win situation.”” ~ Bo Bennett

Don DeRosaWas your stomach tied up in knots as you walked in to your first deal? Mine was! Have you done enough deals so you feel comfortable negotiating? Or does it still give you butterflies? How would you like some tips to make negotiations much easier? To get that bargain-basement price, and still meet your seller’s needs? Then this upcoming Expert Negotiating Tactics Workshop on Saturday, November 16th is for you!

There’s no real mystery to negotiating. We do it every day, in every relationship. Your family negotiates every time you decide what to watch on TV. You negotiate with your spouse every time you figure out who is going to pick up the kids from school. You’re already doing it you just don’t realize it. But for some reason when people say the word “negotiation” people get nervous.

Well, for one thing, negotiation is a form of sales. In other words, buying is selling. Because when you make an offer on a house, you’re hoping to sell your offer to the other side. And being a salesperson scares a lot of people.

If you are lacking this confidence as an investor then this might be the most important workshop you attend all year. In order to be an expert negotiator, you need to make sure you are:

  • Meeting the seller’s needs
  • Building rapport with the seller
  • Believing in your offer
  • Providing the seller with an objective basis for your offer
  • Overcoming the seller’s objections

Negotiating does not have to be something that makes you shudder. After this workshop, you will feel confident and have the knowledge and tools at your disposal to be able to walk into any negotiation feeling fully prepared to create a win-win deal.

At this workshop, you will learn about…

  • 3 variables to every negotiation
  • How to recognize non-verbal clues and use them to your advantage
  • How to plan and gather information for successful negotiations
  • How to use state of the art tools to do all your negotiating for you
  • How to overcome all seller objections when buying a house
  • How to create win-win deals so that everyone leaves happy
  • And much, much more!

Don’t miss this great opportunity to learn how to be an expert real estate deal negotiator!

with Joe Dillon

Joe DillonPlease join us at Tampa REIA Main Meeting on Thursday, October 10th from 5PM to 9PM at the Ramada Tampa Westshore located at 1200 N Westshore Blvd, Tampa, FL where our special guest speaker will be Joe Dillon who will be talking about Advanced Wholesaling Strategies on “How to Structure a 7-Figure Wholesaling Operation to Generate Massive Amounts of Leads & Have Consistent Deal Flow!”

Let’s face it. The wholesaling business isn’t as easy as we thought it would be, especially in a competitive market like Tampa Bay. However, we all want that freedom that a truly automated real estate business can can give us, so what do we do?

In Joe’s presentation, he’s going to cover how to structure your Real Estate Company so that you can build a business that runs without you and be well on your way to earning 7 figures like you’ve always dreamed.

Joe says “The first thing we’ll go over are the different stages of scaling your business. There are different actions you need to take at certain points of scaling your business. We’re going to cover what these stages are, how to know when to go to the next stage, as well as common roadblocks you’ll encounter at each stage.”

We’ll dive into the 3 departments of a Wholesaling business: Marketing, Acquisitions, and Dispositions. We’ll cover the key processes you need to implement within these departments to have an optimized operation. You should have a sophisticated Marketing plan every month so you can generate a ton of leads at low cost.

Next, you need to convert as many of those leads as possible into contracts, so we’ll cover ninja Sales tactics to close more deals and lead management to manage your leads better than ever.

Lastly, once you have more contracts I’ll teach you Dispositions hacks so you can increase your average deal size by 20-30%.”

RSVP NOW and you’ll leave the meeting with a ton of golden nuggets to implement and a well-rounded vision for your New Advanced, Automated Wholesaling Business!

Don DeRosaAre you tired of waiting for deals to fall in your lap? When you drive neighborhoods looking for properties, do you know what to look for? Do you feel like you waste a lot of time driving and not getting anything accomplished? Does the thought of talking with Sellers face-to-face make you nervous? Do you avoid knocking on doors because you’re afraid you don’t know what to say when someone comes to the door?

These are all very common fears that many beginning investors face when seeking out their first few deals. Learning how to deal with these issues early on can make the difference between your success and failure.

Dustin GriffinIf you would like to overcome common challenges such as these, please be sure to join Don DeRosa and Dustin Griffin for this full day Driving for Dollars Workshop & Field Trip on Saturday, October 12, 2019 from 8AM-6PM at the Ramada Tampa Westshore at 1200 N Westshore Blvd, Tampa, FL where you will learn “hands-on” in the class and in the field…

Driving for Dollars

  • How to find dozens of properties every time you leave the house
  • What things you must have with you at all times
  • What software is critical for your success
  • What to look for when out and about looking for opportunities
  • How to track down and find the owners of vacant properties
  • How to put a follow up system in place to track every prospect

Door Knocking & Talking with Sellers Face to Face

  • How to overcome your fear of talking to sellers
  • What scripts to use for practicing talking to sellers
  • How to ensure you get invited in the house
  • What marketing material you need to have with you
  • How to handle objections without knowing all the answers
  • What marketing to leave behind if the owner isn’t home
  • All this and more…

For the field trip, you will be paired up with another classmate and literally go into the field and drive for dollars, door knock and talk to live sellers as well as seeking out and finding vacant properties. If you follow our instructions, you will likely finish the day with several very hot leads.

From Homeless to Real Estate Mogul in 4 Years
How to Overcome Adversity Through Creative Real Estate Investing
with Vicky Schettini
Anyone Can Register to Attend at No Charge!
Register Online at BIGO.co!

Vicky SchettiniMy name is Vicky Schettini. I am a single mom and in 2014 I was suffering from the empty nest syndrome. Living from paycheck to paycheck with only $25.00 to spare, I decided to build my Legacy and Wealth. I was ready to start investing in buy and hold properties. Desperately wanting and needing the security of passive income, I decided to move across country from California to Jackson, MS to be closer to my only daughter.

Things didn’t go as planned and I ended up homeless in a new town where I didn’t know a single person. I was on a mission to build my wealth and decided to do whatever it takes to succeed. I quickly started networking with anyone and everyone possible. I was laughed at and hung up on many times but failure was not an option, so I pushed on.

I finally found an investor who was willing to sell me one of his houses with owner financing. I had to be very creative in ways to come up with the down payment since I was broke. I was finally able to move into my new home and I only had $500 to my name. I taught myself how to rehab the property and put back on the market and had it rented within 4 hours! I have been creative in acquiring more properties and duplicating what I had done ever since.

In just short 4 years, I have exceeded my own goals. I own over 100 single family properties, 4 apartment complexes plus I am still to this day an active investor with a full team helping me. My portfolio continues to grow monthly. In the beginning, I didn’t have any money or credit, but that didn’t stop me from achieving my goals and dreams.

Today, my mission now is to help 1 million people just like me reach financial independence. I want to teach you what I did and how you can duplicate my system of success.

On the BIG Online Webinar I will teach you…

  • Creative ways to make money right away
  • The Bullet Proof Offer
  • Security
  • Be in the top 1% of wealthy investors
  • The unstoppable mindset
  • Answers to your questions and more!

If you have the drive to build your wealth, then I can easily teach you the rest. Please join me on the Beginning Investors Group Online Webinar on August 27th at 7PM ET to learn more! Register for the BIG Online Webinar Now!

How to Overcome Adversity Through Creative Real Estate Investing
with Vicky Schettini

Tampa REIA Members Can Attend for no charge.

Vicky SchettiniMy name is Vicky Schettini. I am a single mom and in 2014 I was suffering from the empty nest syndrome. Living from paycheck to paycheck with only $25.00 to spare, I decided to build my Legacy and Wealth. I was ready to start investing in buy and hold properties. Desperately wanting and needing the security of passive income, I decided to move across country from California to Jackson, MS to be closer to my only daughter.

Things didn’t go as planned and I ended up homeless in a new town where I didn’t know a single person. I was on a mission to build my wealth and decided to do whatever it takes to succeed. I quickly started networking with anyone and everyone possible. I was laughed at and hung up on many times but failure was not an option, so I pushed on.

I finally found an investor who was willing to sell me one of his houses with owner financing. I had to be very creative in ways to come up with the down payment since I was broke. I was finally able to move into my new home and I only had $500 to my name. I taught myself how to rehab the property and put back on the market and had it rented within 4 hours! I have been creative in acquiring more properties and duplicating what I had done ever since.

In just short 4 years, I have exceeded my own goals. I own over 100 single family properties, 4 apartment complexes plus I am still to this day an active investor with a full team helping me. My portfolio continues to grow monthly. In the beginning, I didn’t have any money or credit, but that didn’t stop me from achieving my goals and dreams.

Today, my mission now is to help 1 million people just like me reach financial freedom. I want to teach you what I did and how you can duplicate my system of success.

At the Tampa REIA Meeting I will teach you…

  • Creative ways to make money right away
  • The Bullet Proof Offer
  • Security
  • Be in the top 1% of wealthy investors
  • The unstoppable mindset
  • Answers to your questions and more!

If you have the drive to build your wealth, then I can easily teach you the rest. Please join me on Thursday, August 8th at Tampa REIA from 5PM to 9PM at the Ramada Tampa Westshore located at 1200 N Westshore Blvd, Tampa, FL to learn more! I look forward to seeing you there! RSVP NOW!
