WHAT YOU WILL LEARN FROM THE MAIN PRESENTATION

Meeting Topic: Commercial Real Estate Development with Lasenta Lewis-Ellis

So who is Lasenta Lewis-Ellis and why should we listen to her? Well, Lasenta is a self-made success in the world of commercial real estate. She started as an unemployed, single mom with no money and is now a mover and shaker in the South Carolina Midlands. Lasenta has connections in Richland County and beyond, she knows the laws and the people who make them, and she knows how to leverage those resources for the best results possible.

When Lasenta started in real estate and purchased her first residential property in 2000, she owned and managed LLE Construction Group, LLC. She had no money but learned enough, on her own, to be able to purchase her first commercial building in 2014 for $75,000. That property is now worth $450,000.

Bring your questions and plenty of business cards! Bring your deals as well, you just may find a buyer for them here!

WHY ATTEND

Are you looking to break into real estate but don’t have the money to invest? This hands-on, no-fluff workshop is designed specifically for beginners who want to learn how to wholesale real estate deals with zero startup capital.

In just one action-packed day, you’ll learn how to find deeply discounted properties, put them under contract, and assign those contracts or double close them to cash buyers — all without needing to buy the property yourself.

WHAT YOU'LL LEARN

• Wholesaling 101: What it is and why it works
• How to Find Motivated Sellers (even in competitive markets)
• Scripts & Tools for talking to homeowners
• Contract Basics – What to sign and what to avoid
• Building a Cash Buyer List (who actually close)
• Using Assignments & Double Closings to get paid
• Marketing on a Budget (free and low-cost lead gen)
