My name is Steve, President of Action Jackson Buys Houses and founder / CEO of Steve Jackson & Associates. Most call me “Action Jackson”. Why? Because, I make things happen sooner than later! And more importantly, for my clients.

These are common challenges that can happen to anyone! But this doesn’t have to happen for you anymore. Once you learn the “exclusive” principles, practices, & strategies you can use to quickly overcome what is standing in your way.

So come on out and join the fun while I share these tactics that the world’s best and most successful entrepreneurs use to get out of the “rat race and on the fast track” of life. You don’t have to repeat the same mistakes, you don’t have to take twenty seminars to figure out what works for you, you don’t have to do the hard work that I did. I will show you a systematic, money making machine that you can rev up and set loose. Come join me, Action Jackson at Tampa REIA!

Here’s what you’ll learn:

• 10 step wholesaling blueprint to earn an extra $10k in less than 30 Days, part-time with NO tenant Hassles

• Anyone who has a desire to learn & apply simple ideas to STOP “wearing all the hats” and get YOUR LIFE BACK (Find your “who” not “how”)

My philosophy is simple, “Don’t accept your life. Lead your Life”. My mission is to learn, apply, and teach “what works” to help the person, “I” use to be… With that said, we offer specialized training and coaching you wish you had back then to grow your business or fulfill your calling, easier, faster, cheaper and without so much struggle.

What You Walk Away With

• A complete marketing plan built around AI and automation
• Templates for ads, messages, and follow up
• A clear system to generate and manage seller leads

If you want technology working for you instead of you chasing deals all day, be in this room. Reserve your seat now and build a marketing system that produces seller calls consistently.

Interest rates stay high. Buyers fail to qualify. Deals fall apart at the closing table. Meanwhile, a small group of investors keeps closing, deal after deal, by stepping into the seller’s loan instead of applying for a new one.

This is not theory. This is how properties change hands every week using “Subject To”. The seller signs the deed. The existing loan stays in place. You control the property. When you know how to structure the conversation and the paperwork, you open a doors most investors never walk through.

If you are tired of losing deals over financing, this workshop changes the way you invest. You stop depending on approvals and start solving seller problems that others cannot.

What Makes This So Powerful

• You buy when other investors cannot
• You solve problems for sellers who feel stuck
• You control property with less cash out of pocket
• You create opportunities for cash flow, flips, or long term holds

What You Learn in This Full Day Workshop…

Talking to Sellers About Subject To

• How to explain the process in a way sellers understand
• How to answer fears about cred, liability, and payments
• The exact flow of a Subject To conversation from start to agreement

The Paperwork and Structure

• The documents used in Subject To transactions
• How deals are structured to reduce the chance of issues
• How insurance, payments, and servicing are handled

Dealing with Risk

• Where investors get into trouble and how to avoid those mistakes
• Red flags that tell you to walk away
• How to protect yourself while taking over payments

Finding the Right Sellers

• How to spot homeowners open to terms
• Marketing angles that attract sellers who need this option
• Turning leads you already have into Subject To opportunities

Real Deal Walkthroughs

• How real Subject To deals were structured
• What worked, what did not, and why
• How these deals turned into profit

This Is Not a Sit and Listen Event

You see the structure. You hear the conversations. You leave with a clear process you can apply to your next lead.

Who Needs to Be in This Room

• Investors losing deals because buyers cannot get loans
• Wholesalers who want another way to close
• Landlords who want long term holds without new financing
• Anyone serious about learning how property moves when banks slow down

Every day you wait, more deals pass by because of financing. Investors who know Subject To step in and take those opportunities.
