Join us on Thursday September 15, 2022 to network with local real estate professionals and learn from Attorney David Lebwith about the sales process from offer to closing.
One of the most asked questions from newer investors is about the sales process.

  • What do the contracts look like?
  • What does an attorney have to do behind the scenes to make sure the sale goes through?

Join us on Thursday August 18th 6p-8pm!

We've had several members and guests ask about the business side of real estate investing. How they should set up records, tax advantages, how to keep track of expenses, etc. So, I asked the hero who has been helping me for years to come in and speak to help my investors get everything straight in their real estate investing businesses.
