Multi-Residential Properties. Why buy one house when you can buy multiple houses. That’s right; investors don’t have to buy just one unit, when they can just as easily buy 10 units, 50 units, or even 100 units! It’s called “economies of scale." Buying multi-residential properties is the focus of LAC-REIA's June meeting. And don't worry about financing, because investors can form partnerships, limited liability companies, and corporations to raise the funds to acquire these properties (and LAC-REIA has lenders waiting in line to help you with the financing). If this type of investing is your goal, then don't miss this month's meeting, because we have the #1 authority on multi-residential.

SPECIAL GUEST SPEAKER. Guest speaker will be Brad Sumrok, visiting from Dallas, Texas. Brad is America's leading experts on multi-residential apartment buildings. Brad is an author, speaker, and investor. Brad will be speaking on “How to Find, Finance, Calculate Value, and Manage Multi-Residential Properties." Last year, Brad's presentation was LAC-REIA's largest attended meeting of the year. As a result, several members purchased apartment buildings on their own and/or in partnerships.

DATE & TIME: Thursday night, June 8, 2023, 6:30 to 9:30 pm.

LOCATION. Iman Cultural Center, 3376 Motor Avenue, LA 90034 (between National and Palms).

PARKING: Metered street parking. Plus, there are also two FREE parking structures just two blocks away. The first structure is at the northeast corner of Motor and Palms. The second structure is at the northeast corner of Motor and National. From either lot it’s short two block walk to the Iman.

FREE ADMISSION: Admission to our meetings is always FREE (complimentary), but reservations are recommended.

Foreclosure Forum. If you’re new to real estate investing, foreclosures are the best place to start. Why? Because there are more foreclosures than any other type of distressed properties and the strategies are easy to learn and apply. Plus foreclosures are increasing every month! If this is for you, we’ve got the perfect space to start your journey. Attend our upcoming LIVE In-person “Foreclosure Forum”! At our Forum you will learn everything you need to find and buy foreclosures.

Our Foreclosure Forum is scheduled for Saturday, May 20, 2023, 9:00 am to 5:00 pm. This Forum is hosted by the Los Angeles County Real Estate Investors Association and the Ventura County Real Estate Investors Association. In this intensive Forum, you will learn how to:

      Understand how the deed of trust leads to foreclosure.
      Differentiate between judicial & non-judicial foreclosure.

1. Find foreclosures.
2. Stop the foreclosure while you negotiate a sale.
3. Structure the deals.
4. Negotiate with property owners.
5. Negotiate with lenders.
6. Buy at the trustee’s sales.
7. Buy REOs.

There has NEVER been a more exciting time to become a real estate investor (either full-time or part-time). The market has leveled off, interest rates have spiked, the pandemic-related forbearances and moratoriums are over. As a result, foreclosures are increasing. Your time is NOW!

Featured Speaker: Our speaker, Lloyd Segal, is "America's Leading Foreclosure Expert," best-selling author of "Foreclosure Investing” and “Stop Foreclosure Now.” Lloyd was the winner of the USA Today Book award for the prestigious "Best Personal Finance Book of the Year" in 2018. Plus, Lloyd has personally bought and sold numerous foreclosures throughout Southern California. So forget all those silly info-commercials and reality TV shows. Learn from the guy the Wall Street Journal called "One of America's Big Flippers."

Date & Time: Saturday, May 20, 2023, 9:00 am to 5:00 pm.

Location: Iman Cultural Center, 3376 Motor Avenue (between National and Palms), Los Angeles, CA 90034.

Women Making Moves (& Money) In Real Estate. Both men and women invest in real estate. But honesty, women have certain “challenges” that men just don’t have to think about. Men, you may have no clue what we’re referring to, but women know exactly. So please join us at the Los Angeles County Real Estate Investors Association monthly meeting, Thursday night, May 11, 2023, 6:30 to 9:30 pm, where you will learn how to confront these challenges and become a successful real estate investor.

Guest Speakers: This month we have a unique panel of four women who are kicking butt in Real Estate? These women have been in the trenches, confronted and conquered challenges, and know how to swing a hammer (though they’ve learned they don’t have to). And that’s what they will share with you. Their stories are as different as their personalities, but they all share two things in common: They are successful at what they do and they earn a good living doing it! Attend and learn what advantages women have when investing in real estate. (Men; you can attend too, but at your own risk.) During this panel discussion, you will learn:

• How to find deals in a changing market
• Meet experts in development, flipping, wholesaling & raising money
• How to structure deals with multiple exits strategies in mind
• The key resources to grow your real estate business
• Unlock your full potential as a real estate investor
• Why women are smarter, tougher and better-looking than men

Panel Members. Our moderator will be the incomparable Deborah Razo, President of the Women’s Real Estate Network (“WREN”). Deborah is an investor, including fixing and flipping houses, residential construction, and multi-residential properties in the U.S. and Puerto Rico. The panel will feature Cindy Coleman discussing note investing, Courtney Jones discussing wholesaling and creative financing techniques, and Jen Maldonado discussing raising capital for your projects. All of these successful ladies are members of WREN, a group formed by women investors, for women and about women.

Wholesaling. When it comes to real estate investing, the easiest way to get started is wholesaling. Why? Because you don't need any money, you don't need any credit, and you earn your profits within days (not months). Second, you're not actually taking title to the property, so you avoid all the risks. With wholesaling, you're simply get a property under contract and then sell the contract (not the property) to another investor. If this sounds good, then you need to attend our April LAC-REIA meeting because we have the #1 authority on wholesaling.

Special Guest Speaker. Our guest speaker will be Cliff Gager, the man who invented wholesaling. Well, not really, but he makes it easy to understand and implement. With Cliff, you will learn how to find real estate "deals" and how to wholesale them to other investors, sending your real estate career into overdrive!

Cliff started his real estate investing career as a mortgage broker in 1991. His specialty was helping investors get loans to buy investment properties. In 1993, Cliff transitioned into flipping houses. He would find great deals on houses, fix them up, and sell them for profit! Over the years, Cliff discovered that if he simply locked a property under contract and then assign (aka “wholesale”) the contract to another investor (rather than fixing and flipping it himself), he could get his money faster and easier (with no risk or capital), and do more deals! So while he continued to fix and flip, Cliff was much busier wholesaling deals whenever he could. Now Cliff brings his 30 years of real estate investing experience directly to the people who need it the most. During Cliff’s presentation, you will learn how to:

• · Find deals to wholesale
• · Calculate your profit margins
• · Find buyers (i.e. other investors) for your wholesale deals
• · Make the deals profitable
• · Use trusts for profits

Fixing & Flipping Houses. Everyone dreams of flipping houses, but very few ever really do it. Why is that? Rehabs are fun and challenging, and the profits can be enormous. Plus, compared to other investments, you receive your profits in months (not years). So why don’t more people do it? The answer is simple; people don’t know how to get started. They don’t know where to turn, what to do, or who to trust. Well, stay tuned, because we have the answer.

Guest Speaker. The answer is Don Costa, our very special guest speaker at our March meeting. During his presentation, Don will cover four crucial topics: (1) How to find houses to flip, (2) How to finance your purchase, (3) How to rehab your property, and (4) How to flip your house quickly for fun and profit. Specifically, Don will be discussing:

• Finding the perfect flip
• Funding your rehabs the right way
• Systems to manage your team & timeline
• Tips to cash flow as you grow
• Maximizing your exit (getting the most profit out of each flip)
  
  

If you’re already fixing and flipping houses, or just getting started, you’re going to love Don’s presentation! Don is going to explain why “fixing & flipping” is the most lucrative (and most fun) strategy in real estate investing. Plus, he has plenty of real estate experiences and examples to share with you. Most importantly, he has actually done it with hundreds of rehabs in California’s competitive market. Don is going to show you how to get started and be successful.
