We Hit the Nail on the Head!

Time Magazine dubbed him "the best-selling Realtor in America". He is an award-winning and internationally recognized Realtor and speaker, who has closed on over 10,000 real estate transactions in a 30-year career. Ralph Roberts, real estate mogul and entreprenuer, will be speaking for one night at the REIA of Macomb's second monthly meeting on February 22nd, 2007. This is a huge opportunity for all of us, as Ralph has shared the stage with the likes of Hall of Fame NFL quarterback Joe Montana, General Norman Schwarzkopf, and Rich Dad author Robert Kiyosaki. Ralph will be sharing secrets on how to make huge profits in the current Michigan market, along with his usual repertoire of wisdom he has attained through his illustrious real estate career.

The State of the Market
In this market we are faced with a veritable clearance sale on housing. Now is the time to buy! With the right tools and knowledge, finding and negotiating the sale of a home is almost as easy as it can get. Current market conditions allow for many different exit strategies. You could buy and hold until properties appreciate, fix and flip, or buy and sell via lease option. Many news sources and naysayers believe that this is an impossible situation, but through our own personal experience we have seen that this is a time of opportunity if you have the right means. To learn and network with those that are making things happen in this market every day, join the REIA of Macomb, and start making things happen!

On January 25th, 2007 real estate investing in Macomb County will change forever.

A new organization has been founded by two of Macomb County’s most active real estate investors, Nathan Mayes and Dylan Tanaka. They are taking on the task of assembling a dynamic club for all walks of real estate individuals to attend. They are highly focused on investing in Macomb County.

Throughout southeast Michigan there are many great organizations for individuals to attend to learn, grow and network with like minded folks. To date there wasn’t a group like this in Macomb County that focused on all forms of real estate investing.

The REIA of Macomb's mission is to provide an entrepreneurial atmosphere for real estate investors to learn, teach, and network. They are open to any and all interested in the world of real estate investing. With members ranging from licensed agents and mortgage brokers to commercial investors and first time landlords. There is no "minimum of deal, or homes that you must have closed or owned" to be a part of their organization.

Each meeting will have a different topic focused around investing in Macomb County real estate. Their doors open at 6:00 p.m. for "extreme networking", while the structured meeting begins at 7:00 p.m. and usually will last until 9:00 p.m. The address is 31327 Gratiot Ave. Roseville, MI 48066, the Concorde Georgian INN. There is a map and directions on the website to the conference area that where the meeting is held. http://www.REIAofMacomb.com

The cost to joint the REIA of Macomb is $89 a single membership, and $119 for partners. Tables will be set up in the room for investors to bring their current deals or listings.
The founders' main focus is to promote a high level of networking each and every meeting.

After being at one of the REIA of Macomb's meetings, you will look at real estate investing in a completely different light.
