We meet with investors and start-up real estate agents who frequently have the goal of “owning 10 rental properties” or “building passive wealth through real-estate.” These are terrific goals and we have helped many investors reach these goals, but most people we meet with don’t know where or how to start towards these goals. This class will show you multiple ways to buy your first investment property and get started on the path to real estate wealth. We’ll show you real-world properties that were recently closed and give all of the details of how the property was found, how it was financed and what sort of returns are being made on each property. This is a great class for the first-time real estate investor or a great refresher for seasoned investors to learn how to use some alternative strategies to acquire more properties.

This class comes with one free CE credit.

If you have customers who want to buy a house but are worried because they don’t have 20% down, then this class is for YOU! We’ll show you how to buy with $1000, no money down and how to even get money BACK at closing.
