Wendy Carpenter & Landon Erickson
Storage Units
Storage units are hot right now! We took the plunge, bought a fixer-upper facility, and lived to tell about it. We'll tell you about the challenges we faced with taking over a facility managed by drug dealers and how we turned the place around in less than a year...and then bought two more locations! Small, poorly managed facilities can reap big rewards.
- We are both part-time investors. Wendy is a professional firefighter and Landon is a freelance commercial diver
- We bought our first facility in 2018, bought two more locations within a year.
- Currently also own an SFR that was the first toe-dip into real estate investing. It was the project that sparked the interest while also giving us some very valuable (albeit expensive) lessons in investing.

How & Why to Source Deals from the MLS
Traditional wisdom tells us the best deals are off-market. But what if it's the opposite? What if the best deals are on the MLS? As it turns out, Seattle metro area flippers buying on-market have outperformed those buying off-market since 2012. Absurd? Join us June 5th at the Kitsap Meals & Deals to learn strategies and best practices for sourcing deals from the MLS.

Close More Deals with Greater Profit Per Deal without Pressure, Rejection or Fear
With Dan Doran
The bottom line in this business is about buying more houses at greater profits. It all starts when we buy. Sharpening your skills in this one critical area may be the most important use of your time ever. A lot of folks in sales and negotiation think the key is to learn to "handle" objections. Yes, objection handling is a vital skill...but it’s far more important to understand the emotional appeal that compels your prospect to “take action now”. Learn to uncover and use these hot buttons and you’ll make far more money (and have far fewer objections).
Learn the Magic of Creating Rapport
Selling without rapport is like parking your car in the garage without first opening the door... it can be done, but what a cost. Learn what the pros in every field know about opening the "channel of communication" that must be unlocked in order for you to begin the sales and persuasion process. And learn the single biggest mistake most make and how to avoid it forever so you will close more deals. Dan Doran has been a professional sales trainer and salesman for nearly thirty years. In that time, time has trained over 4,000 salespeople in over fifty different business categories. He has dedicated himself to the creative real estate niche for the last seventeen years. His talk will take all the mystery out of closing. A few secrets and a great presentation and it’s actually quite easy....here is what Dan will be covering at our meeting on May 23rd.
Overcome the Most Common Objections
Confidence in selling comes when you know that you can handle anything they throw at you. Preparation and practice of the “right words” said in the “right way” makes you a confident negotiator in every situation.
Answer & Overcome the Most Common Objections in Advance
Why wait for them to come up on their own? By answering them in your presentation before they come up, you’ll close more business with less stress and your clients will enjoy it more too. This one secret can be the key to endless referrals from happy clients.
Close More at a Higher Average Profit
Scientifically controlled split tests repeatedly prove that you’ll close a higher percentage and do so at an increased profit if you use a professionally prepared presentation. This course delivers that presentation and gives you the words to say and how to say them.
Don’t Want to Sell? No Problem, Have Dan Train Your People for You
How would you like to have Dan train your acquisition people for you? This home-study course does exactly that! Imagine replacing yourself in the field so you could spend more time with family and friends doing what you really love to do. This program lets you Make More Money, Enjoy More Free Time and Expand Your Business
Use the "7 Laws" Effortlessly and Make More Profit
If you’re familiar with the 7 laws you know that using all of them all of the time will make you a master at selling. Unfortunately, it could take years of practice to make them a habit and master their application.
Be a master now with the 7 laws built right in. Memorize a few simple lines and you are the master and you close more sales for greater profit per deal.
Present Tonight with Cheat Notes and Visual Aids
The presentation book with "cheat" notes on your side lets you go into the seller’s home tonight with confidence. The tabs make it easy to jump from one section to the other if you need to answer an objection or respond to a question.
Close the Deal NOW Using Modern Software
Imagine playing audio clips with photos of your best clients. No more being put off with, "I want to talk to some of your clients". Talk to them now!
Answer the old stall, "I need to think about it" with... "That’s what Mary Smith originally said too. Listen to what she has to say now..."
Make All Your Prior Real Estate Training Pay Off
As you know, the key to real estate is creating leads and converting those leads to cash. Sales Mastery takes all your prior training to a new level. By closing more deals with more profit, you literally add tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of dollars to your bottom line.
Quantum Leap Your Income
It may sound hard to believe... yet a relatively small improvement in your sales skills can mean quantum leaps in your income:
For examples, go from closing "1 in 10" leads per month to "1 and 1/2 in 10" leads per month. No big deal, right? Now go from an average profit of $30,000 per deal to $40,000 per deal. This system shows you how.
What happens to your income? Well, you go from taking down $360,000 a year to $720,000 a year... AND YOUR INCOME IS DOUBLED!
Who couldn't use an EXTRA $360,000 this year? Or even half that?
The Truth According to the Clients
From Zero Percent to 50 Percent Closing
"Sales Mastery ROCKS! I have used the Sales Mastery presentation 2 times... The 2nd time I used it I bought a house –- $29K in equity - Yeah! That is after making about 20 presentations (before Sales Mastery) and not getting even 1 deal.
Tara Tooley, CO
$100,000 in My First Month with Sales Mastery
My first month using Sales Mastery I brought in just over $100,000 for my best month ever! My wife tells me I’m actually getting better looking with each new deal. I’m a fan for life.
Dutch Andrews, VA
$112,000 in One Day!
My first day with Sales Mastery and I was grumbling under my breath, “Why am I going out on these leads that have no motivation”? Well I saw 4 sellers and bought 4 houses for $112,000 profit. I’m convinced!

How to Build Your Wealth In6 Hours Or Less A MonthUsing A Completely New ParadigmWithout The Stress Of Risky Investments
That’s a BOLD promise!
Anyone who is familiar with George Antone and his proven advanced strategies know they are in for a treat because George always fulfills on his bold promises! George, a 3-time best-selling author and thought leader in the finance and investing space, has blown the lid off a new paradigm no one is teaching; or even talking about, until now! Imagine low-risk and low-stress strategies that are implemented one time and placed on autopilot to work FOR you starting ASAP – all in 6 hours or less per month! In fact, keep reading for a $100k+ strategy that will be revealed in this presentation! No, this is not a “get rich quick” strategy, but a fascinating way to tweak finance to make it work for you in amazing ways!
The traditional methods of building wealth can be grouped into 3 main categories: Investing, Trading and Saving. These traditional methods work; however, they require a lifetime commitment of learning and implementation.
George has been working on this new paradigm, a 4th method, called “Hacking Finance” – that promises the ability to LEARN and IMPLEMENT each financial strategy within a total of 6 hours or less, and then place it on autopilot to keep working for you! …and you are about to walk away with one of these $100k+ “shortcuts” just from this presentation! This is NOT an overnight $100k+ strategy, but something you implement one time, and it builds over a number of years into $100k or more on autopilot.
What if you are already investing or lending? Quite simply, these methods will increase your existing returns tremendously! Come discover from George’s #1 trainer how to boost your yields by combining this system with your existing investments! That’s exactly why we’re excited to have Paul Rossano, George’s top trainer, as our guest speaker this month; sharing this unique and creative new way to approach finance and investing. Paul will also be sharing this new paradigm, and will give you details of ONE of those strategies that banks use (called “floats”), that you can use to skyrocket your wealth. Paul will demonstrate what you need to do the very next morning at your local bank to increase your wealth by $100k+ over a number of years on autopilot without the stress of risky investments… and this is just ONE of MANY strategies! Some people work hard.
Others work smart. This is working smart!
If you want your path to financial freedom made easier, then this is something you cannot afford to miss out on! It just might be what you are looking for! With a few financial tweaks and this different approach, you’ll find you have more time and money to work with than you thought. Leap forward financially with less risk, less stress, and more time to enjoy life! Join below and experience what George’s inner circle is using to build their wealth and peace of mind, in a relatively short period of time. This is truly exciting stuff to know and we’re excited it’s being shared with us!
See you there!

April Guest: Bethany Finch
Looking for investment strategies and diversification? Can't quite get a handle on this wholesaling thing? Pretty much figured out the flip thing, but running out of deals or want to reduce your tax bills? Wanting to get into rentals but have no idea what BRRR is let alone how to manage one? How do you buy where you can afford when it's 5 states away? What are short term rentals and why would you want to do that? Want to gain even more passive income and invest in multifamily, but don't know how to start? Why all the hullabaloo about opportunity zones and syndications?
This month's Bellingham REAPS meetup we will dive into all these questions. Joining us will be Bethany Finch from American Made Home Solutions. They have over 25 years property and asset management in multifamily and single family, 30 years teaching and coaching experience, a decade of working with nonprofits and private corporations, construction and even translating experience. Bethany is passionate about helping others find ways to give them resources that will help them in their own family's and businesses and will help grow our community. So bring your questions and your friends and join us on April 24th, you'll be glad you did!

It’s YOUR Responsibility to Capture Your Tax Deductions
Your accountant or CPA can only be as good as the information you give them! Join us at the next REAPS Kitsap meeting as special guest Pat James focuses on how to capture ALL the tax deductions legally allowed by categorizing expenses the right way. It’s not about who does your taxes, rather what information you give them! The emphasis on personal and business taxes includes strategies used for legally reducing your overall tax burden.
About Pat James
Patrick James, president and CEO of United States Tax Relief LLC. He is an active real estate investor (including Notes) and has dedicated his entire career to helping people capture ALL the tax deductions legally allowed through implementing specific strategies allowed by the IRS. His marketing expertise was instrumental in launching a tax reduction program with a former senior trial attorney for the IRS. Together, they created a Tax Reduction program that teaches people how to take advantage of every possible tax deduction in order to minimize tax liabilities and becoming audit proof in the process.
Patrick graduated from the University of Portland in 1986 with a degree in Economics, Social Studies & Psychology. The year he graduated he was inducted into “Who’s Who in Colleges and Universities”. In 2002, he became president of a national tax education firm, which specialized in financial and tax education.
Patrick has been a guest on more than 1,000 radio and television talk shows and was featured in Explanations and Newsweek, It's Your Money (a New York Times best-seller). He was also the recipient of the Business Man of the Year 2002. He has spoken at over 1,000 conferences to groups as large as 62,000 people with such luminaries as:
*Alan Greenspan *Suzi Orman *Robert Kiyosaki *Magic Johnson *Kevin Harrington*George Forman *Tony Robbins *Jay Leno and many others.
He has written two books, Secrets of the Self-Made Millionaires and How to Save Thousands on your Taxes.
His program is so successful, Members of the hit TV show “Shark Tank” have become clients.
Taxes are the single largest expense most families are faced with today. With all the 2018 changes, you can discover thousands of dollars in additional deductions that were never available before including the new 20% deduction for Qualified Business Income (QBI). Even if you don’t have a business, the average family of four will save on average $10,000 this year on their taxes by understanding and implementing these strategies.

That mission - learn how to buy and sell houses without using your money or credit, reducing risk, building and protecting cash flow and wealth, and doing it all in a few hours a month. Ron is a master of making the fastest and easiest money in real estate using automation, delegation, and systems so you can work less and make more. He is the trainer’s trainer and is credited with changing a lot of lives, launching new careers, and creating many multi-millionaires.
Remember, you can bring deals Thursday night to the REAPS meeting, and you have another chance to bring Seattle leads on Saturday and watch them get processed. All morning while Ron is teaching, Lynette will be calling the leads you bring and making Seattle deals. This is not a seminar – it’s a deal-a-thon! Ron and Lynette always get 5-7 deals during the Saturday event but if you bring a few leads on Thursday night, you get a head start!
After lunch on Saturday Ron will go through all the negotiated deals and show you what to expect on the front-end, what the monthly cash flow will look like, and what to do next. Ron is making this special trip to Seattle for REAPS. He’s only attending our meeting Thursday night and only REAPS members will be invited to Saturday’s event.
There is no workshop like this anywhere. It’s the only place you’ll see live Seattle deals done while you watch. Click here to get the info on the Saturday event and watch this video to bring leads on Thursday and Saturday. You may never get this opportunity again. By the way, the first 40 to register for Saturday’s event will get a free dinner with Ron and Lynette on Friday night. Don’t wait until the meeting to register.
