American IRA will be hosting Paul David Thompson for a webinar on acquiring cash-flowing commercial real estate without relying on traditional bank financing. After leaving a 17-year corporate career, Paul built wealth through single-family rentals, apartments, RV parks, and self-storage using creative seller financing strategies.
The discussion explores Paul's "Bankless Deal Architecture" approach, including how to structure seller-financed deals with little or no money down, negotiate using his three-option LOI framework, and capitalize on opportunities created by aging property owners. Attendees will gain practical strategies for scaling into commercial real estate while building greater financial and lifestyle freedom.
What You’ll Learn
1. Bankless Deals
Learn how real estate investors can create opportunities without relying on banks, perfect timing, or listings everyone else is already chasing. Paul will show why some of the best deals come from direct conversations with owners who may be ready for a simple, flexible exit. Viewers will walk away with a new way to think about finding cash-flowing properties before the crowd sees them.
2. Seller-Financed Freedom
Seller financing can give investors a way to buy real estate with more flexibility than a traditional loan. Paul will explain how the right structure can help a deal make sense from day one, especially when working with mom-and-pop owners. This topic helps viewers see how creative real estate investing can open doors that traditional financing often closes.
3. IRA Deal Power
A self-directed IRA can give investors more control over how their retirement dollars are put to work. Paul will discuss how self-directed retirement funds may fit into creative real estate deals, while helping viewers understand why education and proper structure matter. This gives attendees a practical reason to learn how alternative assets can play a role in building long-term financial confidence.
