Hey Michael,

A couple of guys showed up that hadn't I seen lately: Justin and Johan, don't know if either is your cousin?

I think may have a shot at success, we'll see if they and some of our regulars complete a beginner assignment I sent.

Thanks, Mike

A few years ago, I’d go after EVERY Real Estate Deal EVERYWHERE that I could! Singles, Condos, Multis, Commercial, Industrial and even Land!

and Robbie would say:"You’re like Jack and the Beanstock, You go after single families and come back with Magic Beans!" (actually a 3 or 4 family investment property, killer deal;-)

The result - A lot of wasted time.

Mainly because there are different metrics to qualify these transactions as Good Deals. So Friday evening, at Kelly’s Roast Beef, let’s get focused!

By the Bye 2019 is almost half over and I’m way behind on my projects… This Focusing on Our Areas, Guidelines, Metrics and using Check Lists, WILL help!

I’ll share my Guidelines for those Singles (Flips, Wholesaling, Renting or You’re next Home), Condos (the easiest Flips), Multis (Condoing, if you can find ANYTHING to buy) & How I’ve been getting in front of Sellers! & using my ToolKit.

I look forward to see you Tomorrow evening 7-8:30pm at

Kelly’s Roast Beef, 165 Endicott Street, Danvers, MA 01923

PS I’m around tomorrow to check your Home Depot, 4 discounts program with You and make sure you get everything coming to you! First make sure you’re still a current member! And we can make sure you’re signed up correctly.

PPS From John Jackson - 8 Ways to Market to Sellers:

1. Pay wholesalers for the leads they throw away!
   Wholesalers get a ton of leads that don’t have the equity they need. Have them send you their throw away leads, and the ones that you are able to lease option, you simply pay them a fee for that! Maybe $1,000 as an example.
2. Call FSBO's
3. Call FRBO’s
4. Send direct mail to listed houses (unless you are an agent)
5. Send direct mail to absentee owners with LOW equity
6. Skip trace absentee owners with LOW equity
7. Hire bird dogs to find FSBO, FRBO and For Lease Houses
8. Contact investors to lease purchase their houses

Your security is our top priority; take these steps to help fight fraud

1. Help us get in touch with you:
   • Keep your contact information up-to-date, especially your mobile number.
   • Download the Mobile Banking app and turn on mobile app alerts. When we detect unusual activity, we’ll notify you; be sure to respond quickly to our security and fraud alerts.
2. Review your account activity regularly and report suspicious activity promptly.
3. Create a strong, unique password for each online sign-in – and use additional security features when available.
4. Protect your devices by installing antivirus software and keeping your operating systems, applications and web browser up-to-date on your mobile phone, tablet and computer.
5. Stay alert to online threats. Avoid clicking suspicious links or responding to emails or texts urging you to act quickly. Do not provide personal information like your account numbers, PIN or Social Security number.

Know how to identify and avoid scams

If you provide your information or send money to a scammer, there is often little we can do to help get your money back:

Never trust caller ID: Always validate a person’s organization by calling them back through an official phone number.

• Scammers may pose as government officials, law enforcement or even Bank of America employees to steal your personal information.
• Zelle® should only be used to send money to friends, family or others you trust and not to buy goods or services from people you don’t know.*

Know how to identify red flags. In many of the most common types of scams, you may be:

• Pressured to send money
• Threatened with law enforcement action
• Told to purchase gift cards and provide codes as a form of payment
• Asked to cash a check for a stranger
• Instructed to make a cash deposit for sweepstakes
• Offered more than you are asking for something with a request to send the overpayment elsewhere.

PPPPS (last one) We had Tom St Jean, THE Insurance guy in our area, speak to us last month. He mentioned how he has many callers who’ve had recent increases in their Premiums. I didn’t pay much attention. However, in the last week I’ve received 3 renewals that had increases. My Home up 6%, 3 Family in Marblehead, up 18%, 3 Family in Salem, up 10%. So if you’re getting Increases, it may be worth it to shop with Tom!

Of course we meet just north of Boston, Massachusetts and a little South of New Hampshire.

PS Folks please don't let your Membership lapse, You're liable to lose your Home Depot Benefits, especially the 2% cash back and we can not get that back for you, once you've expire or lapsed!

Of course we're located just North of Boston, Massachusetts and a little south of New Hampshire.

So we do need more understanding of how the Probate system does work when someone has not taken the time to put their Affairs in order! This workshop will teach you How that system does work!

Good afternoon Folks, 4/4/19 1:04pm

Simple Question...

Why are there so MANY Probate Horror Stories?

*Many Decedents haven’t done any Preparation for their eventual Demise.

*Their Affairs may be complicated and hard to manage.

*The Executrix/Executor could have trouble finding What’s Owned and Where it is.

So these Probate Cases could take Years to Legally settle. Even Uncontested Probate takes 5-6 months on average…

*There could be problems with Greed: “Ma said she wanted ME to have ____________ !”

*Heirs can misbehave and just take things!

*Honest disagreements can occur - Who would want an interest in an expensive property that will appreciate significantly, if it requires payments (tax, Insurance, heat, water & sewer) when one of the Heir’s cashflow is low and the other Heirs aren’t interested in selling right away?

We’re down to just a few seats left for this Sunday, Cornerstone of your Assert Protection Plan so make sure you Register ASAP and we’ll meet at Peter’s this Sunday April 7 10-1pm DesignGroup47.com 47 Newbury Street (Route 1 North, just before Sonic carhop) Peabody, MA 01960

According to AllLaw

Typically, many of the assets in an Estate don't need to go through Probate. If the deceased person was married and owned most everything jointly, or did some planning to avoid Probate, a Probate court proceeding may not be necessary.

Once Jonathan has taken care of your Cornerstone Plan:

Will, Living Will, HealthCare Proxy & Power of Attorney You will have no need to waste time in the Probate Court system. (and have your Affairs listed Publicly.)
