To jump start your success in the New Year with the Atlanta REIA Beginning Investors Group (BIG), we are excited to have special guest speaker Rick Girgis, principal and founder of Equitable Consulting, Inc., at our meeting onMonday, January 18th at 6:30PM. The meeting will be held at the Hudson Grille (http://goo.gl/iaUAwT) located at 6317 Roswell Rd in Sandy Springs, GA. (http://goo.gl/iaUAwT) Rick will be talking about regulation compliance and how it relates to the Dodd Frank Act and much more.

Rules and regulations that investors must adhere to are always changing and it is important to stay informed about them. As a new investor, you may not even be aware of many of these laws and it can be quite overwhelming to try to understand it all. Rick is here to help! Equitable Consulting, Inc. is a Consulting Firm for investors and Mortgage Lenders, and a Residential Mortgage Brokerage and Commercial Lender serving the south east since 1999.

Rick will be discussing…

• Residential & investment underwriting criteria from institutional funding to private lending and how it pertains to stabilized properties, rehabs, and new construction.

• Pitfalls to watch out for in each of the above types of investments.

• Relevant ratios you should be aware of and use in making investment decisions.

• Investment strategy basics for deal #1, buy & hold, and fix & flip properties.

• And much, much more!

This meeting will give the beginning investor a solid foundation to begin building their real estate investing career and will refocus the seasoned investor to matters of most importance. You will not want to miss this great opportunity to illuminate your business with the insight of a seasoned consultant and jumpstart 2016 in the right direction. You will also gain a fundamental understanding of lending products, regulation compliance, and learn the associated opportunities available to Atlanta REIA members.

We are looking forward to seeing you on Monday, January 18th at 6:30PM at the Hudson Grille (http://goo.gl/iaUAwT) located at 6317 Roswell Rd in Sandy Springs, GA. (http://goo.gl/iaUAwT)
