How to Find Deals in Today’s Real Estate Market
This first of a series is designed for the investor who wants to get started in real estate investing and profit with single family houses.  Discussion will include how to find deals, both where to look and what to look for…. and what to avoid.

The following months’ topics will discuss how to estimate repair costs quickly to determine if you have found a deal and the 3 steps you’ll do next to bring home a check for your profits.

Investing in Vacant Residential Building Lots
Have you considered purchasing a vacant building lot? A fire damaged house? A condemned structure? Don’t let a lack of knowledge keep you from what can provide above average opportunities. This will provide a preview to the Aug. 14th Property Tax Foreclosure Auctions & Vacant Residential Building Lots Seminar and Tour.

New Home Construction
Continuously changing rules can make you wonder if rehabbing is for the birds.  Would it be easier to just build a new home as your next real estate venture?   Brent has mastered building quality, energy efficient homes on existing in-fill properties using non-bank financing and self-funded equity.  Attend to find out the secrets of Brent’s success.

Ask the Experts
Everyone knows networking is the key to success in any business.  REIN members readily share knowledge and expertise on the many facets of real estate investing.  Bob Potter, Scott Plemons and several other REIN members will answer your questions based upon their experience with properties they have bought, rehabbed and/or sold in the Nashville area.

WHEELIN’ & DEALIN’
