Rehabbing costs will likely be your biggest out of pocket expense, and it comes into play throughout your investing career, and no matter what investment strategy you use. In some cases, your rehab expenses might even be MORE than what you pay for a property. You cannot know too much, have too many resources, or have too many good contractors on your team.

During this fast paced session, we'll focus on some of the fundamentals that are often overlooked or under utilized by the average investor. It never ceases to amaze me as to how unprepared most investors are when it comes to this part of the business.

**During this session, you'll learn:**

* How to research and write a Scope of Work.
* How to create and monitor Project Management.
* How to find great contractors and build bench strength.
* Financing Options
* Additional resources.

Obviously, in just an hour, this is not a comprehensive course, but it will help you to get in the disciplined habits of Rehab analysis, planning, and execution.

I cannot stress strongly enough the value of belonging to a supportive community like the A2REIC. Real estate investing is not easy, but it is made easier when you have encouragement, support, knowledge, and experience of fellow members to help you along your journey.

Each Saturday Session is in TWO Parts:

PART 1: Laser Class

PART 2: Hotsheet Discussion of NEW Inventory, Off Market Deals, and Leads.

As always, you'll get the opportunity to NETWORK, make new connections, and build your Inner Circle and Power Team. I hope you’ll join us!

The Session is fast paced, information filled, and will leave you with an ACTION PLAN

**ABOUT THE A2REIC**

The A2REIC was created in June of 2008 as a safe space for both novice and experienced investors to Learn, Network, and Do Deals. I would love to help you succeed and be part of your success journey.

I’m also an experienced investor. I’ve held investments individually, in JV partnerships, and I’ve been involved in investing in Michigan, Illinois, Florida, and New Mexico. I’ve been involved in House hacking, condo conversions, single family and multi unit. As a REALTOR, I’ve been involved in close to 800 transactions in Michigan and Chicago

Everyone is welcome, no matter your level of experience.
Come to make new connections, discuss opportunities, and perhaps find your NEXT deal!

The purpose of the RAINMAKERS group is multi-fold:

* To help **EVERY member** create a customized and efficient deal funnel.
* To **SHARE** off market opportunities.
* To **LEVERAGE** our knowledge, resources, and individual NETWORKS for the benefit of each other.
* To **START** and **GROW** relationships with other investors and service providers.
* To **TROUBLESHOOT, MasterMind**, and otherwise encourage and support each other.

Real estate investors are lone wolves. You are in business FOR yourself, but by being an ACTIVE and ENGAGED member of the RAINMAKERS, you are not in business BY yourself.

RAINMAKERS is a safe place to FIND Deals, GROW your Network, and always LEARN something new. That’s the TRIFECTA of real estate investing, and what makes being part of this group a VALUABLE use of your time.

Please join us! Your RSVP is greatly appreciated. You’ll be glad you did.

**This Subgroup is for you:**

* **If you're a FLIPPER looking for your next deal.**
* **If you're a BRRRR investor looking for your next deal.**
* **If you're a BUY & HOLD investor who wants to be more PROACTIVE.**
* **If you’re a WHOLESALER building your Pipeline**
* **If you want to MEET and NETWORK with other active investors.**

And more!

RAINMAKERS is a COLLABORATION between A2REIC and Dirty House Buyers, because we know the power of collaboration, which leads to leverage.

The plan is to meet (at least) 2X/ month, with online communication in between. You must be a VIP Member (or plan to join as a VIP) in order to participate in this Subgroup. You may attend one meeting before making your commitment.

**MEMBERSHIP**

I have an Annual or Quarterly Membership Fee, which will be discussed at the event, and which compensates me for my time, expertise, and management of the group. Consider it an investment in yourself and your education. For the Fee, you get access to all classes, events, and unlimited coaching and consultation.

May's Welcome Wednesday Happy Hour!

The Session Room

Negotiation is a lot more than "haggling," and is one of the MOST valuable skills, yet LEAST taught when it comes to real estate investing. Negotiation is a fundamental skill, not only in real estate, but in life. Simply, you need it to get MORE of what you want - to sell more, keep costs down, get better deals, to manage better, to strengthen relationships, etc.

Negotiating is really where the rubber meets the road in making and closing the deal, and this session will give you a great overview of how to approach it.

**During this session, you’ll learn:**

* How to Build Relationships to Gain Leverage
* How to use Information to Your Advantage
* How to Overcome Objections, and propose win-win Outcomes.
* Strategies for Offers and Counteroffers.
* Using Concessions to Get to the Finish Line,

And much more . . .

As always, it will be fast-paced, information filled, and designed to teach you something you didn't know before while networking, and connecting with other like minded investors. I hope you'll join me
