My Latest Deal: From the Publisher
Meet the Publisher: Linda Pliagas
Hello, thanks for connecting with me!
In addition to my career as a real estate investor and publisher, I am also a licensed real estate agent in California and produce real estate expos around the state and throughout the nation. Please join us!
Come discover techniques that can help YOU understand real estate and skyrocket your portfolio.
Our events offer information on a variety of real estate niches, plus fantastic networking. These VIP events are responsible for bringing together the TOP leaders of real estate. Many people often end up doing business with the people they meet at our events around the country. For most events, we don’t even charge an entrance fee because it’s truly my mission to just motivate people and help them realize that great things are possible.
TRUE STORY: I met my own personal private lender at one of my events in California, he lent me $150K to close my last deal for half a million dollars.
In fact, I have purchased three single family rehab properties in California in the past 18 months totaling $1.5 million, pretty good for someone who put themselves through college by waiting tables – I come from humble beginnings!
MY LATEST DEAL: Purchased 3/2 single family property in Santa Ynez Valley for $435K; Trustee sale, we beat 3 other offers, including one priced higher! My husband and I invested $18,000 into the rehab and we just got a BPO (Broker Price Opinion) only 7 months later for $650,000. That’s $197,000 Gross Profit!! **
My favorite part of the deal? I used the same tile man that Oprah Winfrey hires… WOW!!
Our national events have reached thousands of investors around the country and in California. We work with the top REIA plus Independent Real Estate Clubs around the country. I personally attend many clubs including my local Santa Barbara REIA. I’ve been landlording for 20 years and I have a wealth of knowledge, so my mission is to help others gain the confidence, information and resources they need to succeed in real estate.
I hope you can join us at one of our LIVE events around the country, please come say hello to me!
**Results are not typical. Please remember real estate investing is risky and could result in a loss of capital. Please invest responsibly and always seek the advice of a Trusted Financial Adviser, Attorney, CPA, Broker, and/or other professional BEFORE purchasing real estate.

☑Achieve a Level of Security That Affords You the Lifestyle You Desire
☑Create an Executive Level Cash Flow and Make a Positive Difference
☑Gain Access to the Next Significant Wave of Real Estate Investing Opportunity
…They Can Help YOU.
With 77,000,000 baby boomers, there is an unstoppable “silver tsunami” of opportunity in senior housing. How do I know that… because after 30+ years of investing, being in business and traveling the world training people how to financially succeed… all I’m focused on is residential assisted living care homes for seniors. Why…because the opportunity is tremendous and the cash flow is VERY, VERY generous.
►10,000 People a Day Are Turning 65
►4,000 a Day Are Turning 85
►70% Will Need Special Accommodations for an Average of 3 ½ Years
Many seniors will need to live somewhere other than in their own home or apartment. Today, they are currently paying me $3000-$6,000 a month for housing and related support services. This could be you!
According to Forbes, the average investor has gained only a 2.6% net annualized rate of return for the last 10 year period and hasn’t fared any better over longer time frames. The 20 year comes in at 2.5% and 30 years is just 1.9%. Those who ventured into the real estate market have seen up & down times. Some tried flipping properties for excellent profits, but chasing equity deals has become much more difficult.
PLUS, LEARN ABOUT PROPELIO with the CEO!
Daniel Moore’s Bio:
In 2008, at the age of 23, Daniel Moore bought his very first investment property. Since then, he has learned his lessons very carefully, so that, by the age of 28, he became a full time investor, and was inducted into Robert Kiyosaki’s Rich Dad Hall of Fame. He completed more than 60 properties last year alone – ranging from wholesales, rehabs, sub2s, wraps, short sales, mobile homes, and a million-dollar new construction. From this varied experience, Daniel has accumulated extensive first-hand, real world knowledge on the “how-to’s” of real estate investing.
Daniel teamed up in 2014 with Nate Worcester, in order to create a software service company that would meet the operational needs of serious real estate investors. They spent two years designing and testing a unique online platform. Today, “Propelio.com” is the result of their combined efforts – delivering access to real time comps, reducing waiting time to make offers on discounted properties, to improve lead flow of motivated sellers, to keep the phone ringing, and provide a deal management system to help investors stay organized.
