Special LIVE Masterclass: Advanced Creative Deal Structuring
in a Changing Market with Bill Cook - Sat, October 19, 2024

 

We are so excited to invite you to a LIVE Masterclass where our special guest Bill Cook, one of the best speakers in the nation, will show you CREATIVE ways to construct win-win deals in this changing market.

Heard the phrase, The cheese has moved?

Last year, home values were skyrocketing, rent rates were through the roof, and short-term rentals were 100% occupied. My, the difference a year can make!

Today, home values are leveling off, rental rates are coming down, and too many short-term rentals are sitting vacant.

Obviously, the cheese is on the move. What do we do? Do we play like Chicken Little and run for cover? Or do we recognize this for what it is: a great time to pick up our creative-deal-structuring toolboxes and go out and find people to help and problems to solve?

If you started investing in real estate after 2012, creative deal making may be a foreign concept. It’s likely the only tool in your deal-structuring toolbox is the proverbial Big Damn Hammer... you know, a 70-cent-on-the-dollar-all-cash offer.

Ever wondered about all the other ways an offer can be creatively constructed? Creatively funded? Creatively held? Creatively exited?

You are in for a special treat at MREIA in October! We are honored to have Bill Cook come to our wonderful community and share his best techniques and creative-deal-making tools in action!

SEPTEMBER MAIN MEETING HIGHLIGHT:
 LEGAL EAGLE NIGHT - "Ask the Lawyer" Panel of Expert Real Estate Attorneys

A full house and a lively Q & A with our knowledgeable panel of distinguished Attorneys (Felicia Ekejiuba, Harry Frieland & Michael Mirne) made MREIA’s Legal Eagle Night” a rousing success.

Questions from the audience touched on Landlord/Tenant issues and law, real estate contract law, using land trusts and other real estate law and legislation.

Harry Frieland gave an update on the “Corporate Transparency Act”, what members need to do to comply.

Other topics included an update from former MREIA VP Anthony Uva on the “Community Wealth Preservation Act” and the consequences that this poorly written bill has had on the Sheriff Sales and actually hurt the very people it was supposed to help.

When the bill was signed by Governor Murphy in January you may recall we told members what a fiasco it would create, and yes, we were correct!

Did you happen to miss this great meeting? Replay will be available to our members in the Webinar Recordings' section of our website shortly.

AUGUST MAIN MEETING HIGHLIGHT:
MREIA August Main Meeting - Food & Friends & Fun = A Great Event!!

The forecast was for rain but the Gods were smiling down on MREIA. The Day turned out beautiful and dry (during the picnic, that is!).

We want to thank all the MREIA members who came and shared in our annual picnic at Thompson Park in Lincroft.

There was a Bluegrass / Old Tyme Music Festival at the park. Unfortunately it was on the other side so we could not hear the bands but all in all, a great day.

I want to give a special thanks to Irina, Andrea, "Chef Anthony", Dave F, Ralph, Kimberly and Baronda for helping make the day a success.

Quotation Mark

I sincerely hope you like what you do, as well as like the people you work with. After all a good part of your life is spent working so you might as well enjoy it. But if you are one of those 5/7ths people, who live for the weekend, and yearn for something better, something you enjoy and can start doing part time, real estate investing may be for you.

There is no business quite like real estate investing. You can control large amounts of property with small amounts of cash and safely leverage your way to real wealth and prosperity.

But you need to do it the right way. Educating yourself as to the proper way to structure deals that benefit you and the other parties involved is of vital importance. Also learning how to manage and renovate properties is also of the utmost importance.
