If you limit yourself to deals that a Realtor can find on the MLS, you will starve in this business. But if you develop relationships with wholesalers PLUS have a CONSISTENT marketing plan of your own, you can make a very nice living, and build tremendous wealth over time. I have friends and business associates making money in EVERY area, in EVERY market. Those who say it can't be done are just making excuses (sorry if that offends anyone).

I've been investing exclusively in the markets that someone on here said were "too saturated" for nearly 14 years, and have consistently flipped 12-15 houses per year.  I've done it in 2003-2004 when there were less investors, from 2005-2007 when everyone and their uncle, brother and half sister were buying real estate, and in 2009-2012 when financing was scarce, buyers were few, and prices were falling.

In this business (and any entrepreneurial pursuit), you can either make excuses or make money.  It's up to you.  It's not easy, it requires hard work, determination, discipline, etc...but you can flip houses in EVERY market, and make a good living, with or without 100% cash.  Go to Jared Irby's meeting when you get a chance, and I bet he can show you how.

“Fix & Flip Fortunes, Part 3 – Creative Rehab Funding”

-THURSDAY, May 19th, 2016 @ 7 pm, Daphne Civic Center-

The greatest challenge that most beginning (and experienced) investors face after FINDING a great renovation project is how they are going to FUND their new investment opportunity. In the same way that FIRST TIME homebuyers typically need some down payment and closing cost assistance, those pursuing their first renovation property many times do not have the necessary capital to make the deal happen on their own. That’s where the world of CREATIVE REAL ESTATE INVESTING techniques and strategies come into play, and can help even the most neophyte investor get that first deal under their belt, and on their way to great success in the business.

At this month’s PIG meeting, Matt Robinson (PIG Founder and Head Instructor) will be sharing some of his most effective (& profitable) secrets on how to find MASSIVE amounts of available money to fund not only your purchase of a fix & flip property, but many times the complete renovation costs as well. This is another one of those “can’t miss” meetings, so make sure you join us LIVE for this incredible educational event!

Grab your smart phone and mark your calendars for  THURSDAY, MAY 19th at 7 PM in Daphne, AL at the Daphne Civic Center.

“Fix & Flip Fortunes, Part 2 – Valuation & Deal Analysis”

-THURSDAY, April 21st, 2016 @ 7 pm, Emerald Coast Convention Center-

There’s an old adage in real estate that says, “you make your money when you BUY real estate, not when you sell.” You REALIZE your profit when you sell, but the truth is that if you don’t BUY it right in the first place, there will never be a profit at the end to realize. That’s why this month’s PIG meeting is absolutely CRITICAL to your long term success, and one you shouldn’t even think about missing!

Of all the creative real estate investing strategies, perhaps the most popular and exciting is “rehabbing” or fixing and flipping houses. For years now, cable television shows have depicted the highs and lows of renovating real estate for profit. But while the major mishaps and expensive mistakes highlighted on these shows might make for interesting television, they could financially ruin a beginner or intermediate investor, and drive them out of the business altogether.

So, at this month’s PIG meeting, Matt Robinson (PIG Founder and Head Instructor) will be sharing some of his tips and tricks on determining a properties value, as well as how to perform a basic analysis on a potential renovation deal to see if it’s worth pursuing.

Here are just a few things you’ll learn at this powerful workshop…

—> How to Accurately Determine a Property’s Value WITHOUT Calling an Appraiser

—> How to Avoid the Top Mistakes Investors Make when Estimating Value

—> How to Effectively Use Your Local Property Appraiser Website to Research Potential Rehabs

—> How to Determine Whether a Deal Will Qualify for Private or Hard Money Lending

—>And SO much more!

“Fix & Flip Fortunes”

-March 17th, 2016 @ 7 pm, Daphne Civic Center-

Of all the creative real estate investing strategies, perhaps the most popular and exciting is “rehabbing” or fixing and flipping houses. For years now, cable television shows have depicted the highs and lows of renovating real estate for profit. And yet even with all of the dire warnings, major mishaps, and expensive mistakes highlighted on these shows…we still CAN’T GET ENOUGH!

Why is that?!? As a rehab addict myself, I can tell you that there is just no greater feeling than taking the neighborhood eyesore and turning it into the crown jewel. Neighbors come over to thank you, the previous seller is impressed by what you did with “mom’s old place,” and the new homeowner is thrilled with their new purchase, a place to call “home.” It truly is an incredibly rewarding experience, and one that everyone should experience at least once in their lifetime.

At this month’s PIG meeting, Matt Robinson (avid rehabber and real estate flipper) will be sharing his insider tips and tricks to creating a highly profitable rehab business in your spare time, even if you have no money, no credit, and no previous experience. Does that sound like an infomercial sales pitch? Perhaps it does, but Matt can back it up with his real life experience! He’s flipped dozens of homes in this area, all while working full time as a youth pastor…his true passion and calling in life.

Here are just a few things you’ll learn at this powerful workshop…

— How to Find “Below Market” Deals for Pennies on the Dollar, with Built-in Equity

— How to Effectively Analyze Potential Deals so You Don’t Overpay, Over-improve, or Undervalue When You Sell!

— How to Find (and Qualify) Potential Contractors, and Make Sure You Don’t Get Taken in the Process

— How to Avoid the Trap of Renovating to a “Specific Taste” and Appeal to the Largest Possible Buying Audience

— And TRULY, SO much more!
