ABOUT OUR SPEAKERS

Zachary went from a bartender to a Real Estate Expert, Coach, and 3x bestselling author of Real Estate on Your Terms, The New Rules of Real Estate Investing, and Sell With Authority for Real Estate Investors. He’s the CEO of Smart Real Estate Coach, a partner in multiple 7-figure businesses, and co-host of the Smart Real Estate Coach and Not Just A Transaction podcasts.

At the age of 25, Zach decided to leave the world of bartending and personal training and jump into the family business. It was one of the first big risks that he took in his life, as nothing was guaranteed. Plus, he knew absolutely nothing about real estate. Through hard work, in-house training, and implementation, Zach has now completed over 100 deals and, on top of that, he coaches students around the country on how to buy and sell property just like his family still does. Now, as a group, they buy and sell 25-30 properties a month with a predictable and scalable system, controlling between $60-$80 million of real estate at any one time with little to no money in the deal and no banks involved.

Zach has over 6 years of experience and now runs all operations of Smart Real Estate Coach, on top continuing to coach his students and Associates. He has an amazing wife Kayla and two small children, his son Remi and his daughter Bellamy. He is a prime example of how to be successful both in business and at home.

Anthony Chara is a seasoned Real Estate investor that has investing and property management experience dating back to 1993. After 16 years working for a fortune 500 company and traveling extensively it was time for a change. Mr. Chara gave up his lucrative Area Manager position in which he managed 35 electronic technicians in 7 states and a $3M budget so he could spend less time traveling and more time creating wealth for his family. He turned to full time Real Estate investing around 2004. He has also started several service and/or education oriented companies.

Presently, he's managing member of Apartment Mentors and founder of Success Classes. He has owned or managed several successful companies during the last 20+ years. Mr. Chara owns or has owned properties in Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Nevada, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Texas, Belize and Paraguay.

He has taught several thousand aspiring RE investors. Mr. Chara also volunteers and supports several worthy charities such as the American Red Cross, Denver Rescue Mission, Habitat for Humanity, St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital and the Wounded Warrior Project.

Mr. Chara turned to Apartments full time in 2004. He’s owned, partnered and/or has syndicated over 2000 apartment units around the country since that time. These units range from 31 units in 1 complex in Pennsylvania to 410 units in 4 complexes in Indianapolis. Some of his partnerships include a 100 unit complex in Longview, TX, a 31 unit complex in Pottstown, PA, a 100 unit complex in Macon, GA, a 48 unit property in Lebanon, OH, a 60 unit complex in Burlington, IA, 9 units in a Hilton Hotel complex in Belize and Green Houses & Orange Grove lots in Paraguay.

In 2006, Mr. Chara decided to capitalize on recent RE market trends to offer superior technical training to RE Investors specifically targeting commercial investing with an emphasis on Apartment complexes. Mr. Chara’s techniques teach people how to analyze properties to see if the Buyer can increase cash flow and value for themselves and their investors.

Having reviewed several other gurus in the marketplace that specialize in Apartments, he set out to design and implement the best quality Apartment Investing training class in the market today. He taught his first class in September, 2006, and he believes very strongly, based on the testimonials that he’s received, that he has achieved this goal.
