Home warranties are worthless, and never use that contractor again, he is looking to rip you off whenever he gets a chance(or he's a moron that doesn't know pricing).  You should be below 5k to replace the a/c only.   You have to replace the a/c, there is no choice, a tenant may be ok with a window unit as a band-aid short term but any tenant that accepts a window unit for the long term isn't a tenant you want.   And ain't no one dealing with no a/c in august.  Get it done asap or lose a tenant and have the expense and a vacancy.

We always meet the first Tuesday of every month and have local pros speaking on their REI expertise. No sales, No BS, that's why we charge so we can pay for the room.

This Tuesday Night July 2nd

Jeffrey Richman- Subject to is what he do

Scott Patterson- Negotiating FTW

FREE Beer to the select 25

Cost is $20 or 2 for $30

Jeffrey Richman- He has been around the block a few times, too many times actually. Once he went so fast around the block, he ended up in a ditch and had a long recovery to get back to real estate. As he sat in the hospital, he knew he had a higher purpose. That purpose was to try to pass on the knowledge of subject to's he had gleaned from all of the REI gurus of the southeast. He's been in their circles and has done more subject to's than there are medal rods in his body and that is a ton. This brings him here to the trenches where he will live out his purpose training the minion grasshoppers the intricacies of subject to's. Come learn from one of the masters so you don't end up in the ditch of has been real estate investor wannabes.

I will be presenting on the often neglected, but critical aspect of real estate- Negotiating. Sorry but that’s my highest and best, but you will for sure learn a technique to save or earn you thousands. I used one last Friday and got the bank to eat 10k and I’ll tell the tale or brag, same thing.

umm, get a job and figure out the business over time and then phase out your job or quit when your pipeline is full.  I don't care what the gurus tell you, it's not realistic to become full time starting from zero.  Can it happen, sure, but I don't know anyone that's done it.  Come to my meetup, Real Estate Investing Trenches, you can search facebook or meetup.

This Tuesday June 6th!

JJ Leonidas – Wholesaling Survival Strategies

Scott Patterson- Rehabbing 101

New!- FREE Beer (25) by Harry Marsh Law and TnT Staging
Cost is $20 or 2 for $30

Sugar Creek Brewing 

Charlotte NC

Holy cow, wholesaling and rehabbing in 1 meeting. Maybe I should throw in an ebook, a pile of paper (oxford comma) and a 90 minute coaching session. Wow, I could sell tickets for 2k! But wait, there’s more, David Roberts is man enough to share his biggest loser deal. It wasn’t enough to hear about Joe Myers loser, the fans have spoken and losers are so much fun to learn from if they ain’t yours. If you act now you will also get to hear Tatiana Murga teach you how to increase your dollar bills through staging.

Back to our spectacular main event, JJ Leonidas: JJ puts the ustle in Hustle. He started out scrapping in the landscaping business providing for his family and somewhere along the way got tricked into going to a real estate meeting. He rarely missed a meeting, he went to absorb and get some biz. You needed something done and JJ could do it or knew how to get it done for you, it was done. He just wanted to be around the action so he could learn the game. And learn the game he did. Now JJ “The Hustle” Leonidas has got the wholesaling game on checkmate and he’s going to slow down just enough to share some of the strategies he picked up in the trenches and give back the way he learned the business. If you miss this meeting and the tips, “The Hustle” will be sharing, well then I don’t want to hear your whining about how you can’t find deals.

Oh yeah. I will be doing a presentation on Rehabbing 101, so you will be primed to do both ends of the business and know enough about rehabbing to complement your new crushing wholesaling strategies. Sorry for the late notice, but if you don’t have the first Tuesday marked in your calendar then you when are you going to realize we bring it each and every month. Boom Baby!

Go to the outskirts of Charlotte.  You shouldn't be investing out of state to begin with, your costs will be much higher with less control etc.  You will lose much more than investing locally and will find out why the locals passed on your deal too late.

Updated Event Info

Ka-Peugh! Same Bat Time, Same Bat Place

This Tuesday April 2nd, Sugar Creek Brewery Charlotte NC
Edward Peugh- Creative Financing Strategies and Topics
Scott Patterson- Many Options with Real Estate Options
New!- FREE Beer by No Fear Investments - Travis Howard Cost is $20 or 2 for $30
Ed Peugh is in the trenches this month. I was going to go find a bio on him somewhere, maybe detail how he went full time, how he amassed cash flow with real estate and associated businesses. Maybe he volunteered to save starving orphans and the whales simultaneously. The bio might even mention his evil twin brother, Taylor and how they manage the businesses together. It would probably mention he is a coach in a well-known master mind and speaks at their seminars and it may even be coming to Charlotte soon. Who knows what it would say. I just know Ed knows his stuff, and will deliver the goods on creative real estate financing, and besides, I'd rather just write some quickies on him and why you should pay attention to him and you probably have already heard of him before anyway and I can't believe you are still reading a intro about him. But regardless, you are still here and Ed will be speaking on creative financing this Tuesday and it will be awesome. 
My Topic- Many Options with Real Estate Options.
Options are probably one of the most powerful under-utilized strategies in real estate and they are rarely covered. There's so many ways to utilize them and I will try to remember and cover as many as I can.
Sponsor- No Fear Investments We now a monthly sponsor and they sponsor the meeting by giving away 25 beers! Boom what other meeting has Free Beer?

We always meet the first Tuesday of every month at Sugar Creek Brewing Co. so we can have some adult beverages while we hear a local speaker present on their real estate investing expertise.

We do charge $20 for one or 2 for $30 to cover the cost of the private room, and there isn't any selling.

6:30pm Sugar Creek Brewing Co.

215 Southside Dr, Charlotte, NC, US

90% education, 6% fluff, 4% inappropriate humor.

Drink some beers and get some EDU

Go to Meetup.com for the PayPal links to pay, or you can pay at the door.

Thanks for your support.

other info- we will have our own private bartender (beer pourer) and a limited menu for food. You may bring any promotional material about your business, wholesale needs etc to distribute, as there won't be a "networking" opportunity during the meeting. But plenty of networking after.
