- "How to Get Started as a Real Estate Investor"Iman Cultural Center, Los Angeles, CA
How to Get Started as a Real Estate Investor. Everyone wants to become a real estate investor. The problem is people don’t know how to get started. Where do you go first? Who do you trust? Where do you learn the ins and outs? Where do you find deals? Who can help me? If this is you, listen up. We’ve tracked down the perfect educator to help you get started. He is Miami, Florida, but he is flying out to SoCal, specifically to help you get started. In fact, the title of his presentation is aptly titled “How to Get Started as a Real Estate Investor.”
An Evening with Justin Colby. After investing in real estate for over 18 years and almost 3,000 deals done, Justin has created a business that generates 7 figures in active income through wholesaling and fix and flipping as well as accumulating millions of dollars of rental properties (including 5 apartment buildings, 50+ single family homes, and 1 storage facility). Justin’s longevity in real estate is due to his ability to look around the next corner, adapting to changing markets, perfecting raising private capital, and focusing on lead generation (which allows him to not just wholesale and fix & flip, but also accumulate wealth through long term rentals). His success in real estate led him to start “The Entrepreneur DNA” podcast and “The Science Of Flipping” podcast, and REI LIVE (where he’s actively doing deals with his members).
At his presentation, you will learn how to:
+ Where to find good deals
+ How to determine property values
+ Where to find the financing for your deals
+ How to perform “due diligence”
+ Do I need partners?
+ Should I “fix & flip” or “buy & hold”?
