- NCREIA Online Seminar: How (and Why) to Do Wrap LoansLink visible for attendees
NOTE: RSVPing here does NOT get you a link: you'll need to register at our website, HERE, to do that.
Wrap mortgages are one of the most powerful tools in your creative finance toolkit.
If you’re a buyer/borrower, they let you get below-market rates and payments.
If you’re a lender or seller, they let you create incredible rates of return, with a lot more control than a typical 2nd mortgage offers.
But they’re also widely misunderstood… and often poorly explained by gurus… and full of traps for the unwary.
That’s why we’re bringing you this step-by-step, hands-on workshop with the Anita Johnson, BKA “The Wrapping Queen.”
At this intensive, interactive online event, she’ll walk you through:
- Why wraps are the best solution to a lot of “I need money for downpayment and repairs” situations
- How they work—and yes, you’ll FINALLY get it
- The 7 steps to successful wrap mortgage deals
- How to evaluate a wrap mortgage deal, step by step
- The collateral conversation: what matters, what doesn’t, and how to choose
- Anita’s Rules for Wrap Mortgages (follow these, and you’ll avoid 90% of the pain)
- How to minimize your risk and avoid costly legal or financial missteps
- How to explain wraps clearly and confidently to everyone involved
- Exercises to help you spot wrap opportunities and practice structuring them the right way
Whether you’ve never done a wrap before, or you’ve done a few and want to do them better, you’ll walk away with a repeatable model and more confidence than ever.
And we guarantee that, or your money back.
The workshop will be recorded, and all registrants will receive the recording—so if you can’t attend live, make sure to register anyway!

- NCREIA South Wake: Flipping Houses in Infavorable MarketsKeller Williams Realty Platinum, Garner, NC
Flipping Houses in Unfavorable Markets with Mike Otranto
Let’s be honest—flipping houses isn’t as easy as it looks on TV, especially in a shifting market. But with the right strategies and mindset, it’s still possible to find success—and Mike Otranto is here to show you how.
Mike is the owner of Wake County Home Buyers and Houseflow Depot, and he’s done over 300 deals in flips, wholesales, and brokerage. After relocating from NYC and building (and rebuilding) his real estate business in North Carolina, he’s created a system that allows him to consistently buy 20 houses a year—directly from home sellers.
In this session, Mike will walk us through:
- The current state of the market
- How to analyze deals when longer hold times are likely
- Case studies from recent deals (real numbers, real talk)
- How to position yourself for success no matter the market
Whether you're just getting started or adjusting your strategy, Mike brings the kind of insight and experience that can help you level up with confidence—even when the market isn’t in your favor.
Bring your questions, your notebook, and your hustle. This one’s going to be packed with value.
