How to Structure Real Estate Deals Using Seller Finance and Notes
Learn how seller finance and notes can create cash flow and new deal opportunities with 40-year investor Eddie Speed
**FREE TICKET** šļø https://www.eventbrite.com/e/how-to-structure-real-estate-deals-using-seller-finance-and-notes-tickets-1984826171509?aff=cicmeetupapp
Most real estate investors only know one way to make money:
Buy the property. Fix the property. Rent it or sell it.
But thereās another side of real estate that can create cash flow, flexibility, and opportunity without only focusing on owning more property.
At this monthās Columbus Investors Club, Tiffany and Josh High are sitting down with Eddie Speed - a real estate veteran with 40 years of experience who has closed more than 50,000 note deals. He has spent decades helping investors understand how to structure deals through seller finance and notes, and how to think more like the bank instead of just the buyer.
This will be a practical conversation around a part of real estate most people have heard about, but very few truly understand.
If youāve ever wanted to know how to create more opportunities in deals, generate cash flow in a different way, or understand how seller finance actually works in the real world, this is a night you want to be in the room for.
Youāll walk away thinking about deals differently, seeing new possibilities, and understanding how creative structuring can open doors that traditional investing alone canāt.
**What Youāll Learn**
* How seller finance works in real estate deals
* How notes fit into real estate and create opportunity
* How to structure deals more creatively
* How investors generate cash flow by focusing on the payment
* How to think like the bank instead of only focusing on owning the property
* How this strategy can create flexibility in todayās market
**Open Q&A - Ask Eddie Anything About**
* Seller finance and how to use it in real deals
* How notes work in a practical, beginner-friendly way
* Creating cash flow without only relying on rentals
* Structuring deals that others might miss
* How experienced investors think differently about financing
* Common mistakes investors make when they only focus on the property
**Why You Should Be in the Room**
Because the investors who win in the long run know how to do more than just buy houses.
They know how to structure.They know how to create terms.They know how to see opportunities other people miss.
This is the kind of conversation that can expand the way you think about real estate entirely.
Come ready to learn, ask questions, take notes, and connect with people who are serious about growing in this business.
**Reserve your free seat now - and be part of the conversation.**

Data & Analytics Wednesday - The Data-Driven Brand
**The Data-Driven Brand: Using Analytics to Shape Perception**
Can you use analytics to improve tacos? This being CBUSDAW, we think the answer is probably āyesā, but weāre not sure how to implement or test this theory.
For our April meetup weāve got Sara Kear, CMO of Condado Tacos, to investigate this delicious question. Sara will explore how she blends quantitative data and qualitative customer feedback to shape brand positioning and drive business decisions. We all know that marketing and analytics go way beyond attribution. Sara will show how Condado uses customer insights to inform product and pricing strategy.
Sheāll also highlight how Condado leverages customer feedback at scale to influence operational priorities, positioning marketing as the voice of the customer across the organization. In the last 12 years Condado has gone from one location in Columbus to 52 locations across 10 states, so weāre guessing thereās more to that growth than really good guac (though the guac probably helps).
Ultimately, this talk focuses on the intersection of art and scienceāusing data to inform creativity and build a brand that resonates with customers in a measurable way.
**About Our Speaker**
Sara Kear is Chief Marketing Officer at Condado Tacos, where she oversees brand, restaurant design, menu and pricing strategy, off-premise including catering, and customer data strategy. Since joining in 2021, she has helped grow the brand from 19 to 52 locations while building a data-driven marketing organization focused on loyalty and customer insights. Condado has since been named to the Inc. 5000, recognized as Breakout Retailer by Chain Store Age, and consistently ranked among FastCasualās Top 100 Movers & Shakers.
