LEVERAGE OUR KNOWLEDGE AND RESOURCES – 2018 is Your Time To Make Your Dreams Materialize

Let’s connect.

You may want to meet me in person.

Why? I’ve been mortgage-free since age 39 (in California, where a decent home averages about $1M), and I own a lot of rentals that pay me monthly cash flow, which allows me the freedom to produce investing magazines and travel the nation hosting real estate events!

It’s a Fun JOB. I’ve had three offers to sell my business, but when you don’t need the cash, the bottom line is not as important as your freedom, happiness and the ability to have TOTAL control over your day…

If YOU want to Change Your Life…

BE MY GUEST FOR BREAKFAST: http://REALTY411expo.com/RSVP

In addition to teaching you about Real Estate, we will give you the latest information on: Multifamily Investing, Crowdfunding, Notes, Private Money, Cryptocurrency, FOREX, Tax Liens, Out of State Investing, California investing… and…. even, How to Produce a reality TV pilot to submit to the networks who are looking for stories and talent RIGHT NOW!

Leverage is the Answer.

If you, like most people enjoying a new year, are questioning how you can make more money in 2018 — then you need to learn about leverage. What is leverage?

“The use of a small initial investment, credit, or borrowed funds to gain a very high return in relation to one’s investment, to control a much larger investment, or to reduce one’s own liability for any loss.” (Dictionary.com)

Whether it be investing in real estate, which is a tangible asset, or investing in paper or digital assets (such as stocks, FOREX, or the latest craze cryptocurrency), the principle is the same. And, leverage can increase your bottom line faster IF the right investment is chosen.

A person can also leverage their time, money and connections to make a maximum impact and get from point A to point B faster and with less effort. We’ll discuss this after a quick illustration about how leverage can create a windfall… quickly.

Leverage is what catapulted my investment career many years ago, and it was a great learning lesson on appreciation and the leverage of existing capital.

At the time, Southern California was going though an upswing. The markets were appreciating nicely and I knew it was time to get in to leverage my time and resources for maximum profit.

I utilized funds from a recent home refinance to put a down-payment on a four-unit property, which was of fair market value, but a total fixer-upper.

Before I made the offer (beating out several others with a wonderful technique I will disclose in another article), I made sure the property would pay itself off every month from the rents. Important: I also saved some funds from the cash I had to do the work needed on the property. In this transaction, we were were actually going to be negative every month about $400, but we decided to proceed.

Thanks to an appreciating market and our diligence in research in finding a value-add property, we soon saw amazing equity. As easy as this sounds, behind the scenes, months of daily work went into this.

To find this diamond of a deal, I had to be on alert for months, scour the internet for deals, drive around my target markets, plus engage in busy work on other deals that went absolutely nowhere.
Hard work is always rewarded, and within 18 months, we were in escrow again selling the same four-unit complex we purchased for $428,000 for a new price of $676,000. We took an $80,000 boot (cash) upon the sale and did a 1031 Exchange on the remaining balance to four multifamily properties out of state.

By investing outside of California, the equity from one single four-unit property was used to LEVERAGE into 24 apartments – 4 four-unit buildings.

So as you see, here are a few examples of how leverage can be used to Maximize your Time, Resources and Funds.

It was wonderful to receive that $80,000 check for my efforts and to go from owning a small complex to a portfolio of properties in two states!

The rewards of LEVERAGE have been duplicated over and over in my life, and now I’m lucky enough to be in a position to give back this and so much other first-hand knowledge that I have accumulated throughout my 20-plus career as a landlord in California and other states.

One of the ways I do this is by publishing REALTY411 (our alternate cover is Real Estate WEALTH), as well as REI Wealth Monthly.  When I started 11 years ago, I was a one-woman machine and handled everything: sales, design, marketing, reporting… you name it, I did it!!  Now, I have an international staff and two offices in Santa Barbara County, plus I travel the country hosting LIVE EXPOS!

Last year, we produced 27 events in nine states, which brings me to how YOU can leverage this.

LEVERAGE YOUR TIME WITH US!

REALTY411 IS THE ORIGINAL REALTY INVESTOR MAGAZINE AND EXPO COMPANY

Now that you know the key to going from one level to the next is by catapulting yourself though leverage, I invite you to join me as we grow together at our events.

Without a doubt, I was able to leverage my time due to the amazing knowledge I’ve accumulated from so many years of hosting events, where I learned from some of the most active and successful investors and entrepreneurs around the country!

Our events are COMPLIMENTARY because we truly want to share the day with you and hope to positively impact your life. Be sure to visit REALTY411expo.com, our event website, for our Spring 2018 schedule (or see information below).

Announcing Launch of the Bay Area Commercial & Multifamily Real Estate Investment Club

By

NEWLY-FOUNDED BACOMM UNITES INVESTORS IN BAY AREA

Wilson Investment Properties is launching BACOMM: Bay Area Commercial & Multifamily, a real estate investment club that caters to investors of all experience levels looking to advance from rental homes and move up to the big leagues of commercial and multifamily real estate investing.

Members will also have the opportunity to invest passively in institutional grade investments for as little as $50,000.

Active in many real estate investment associations, Mr. Wilson is a frequent speaker whose candor and competence makes him an audience favorite.

The first meeting will be taking place on January 25, 2018 from 7 – 9:30 PM PST at 4500 Great America Parkway, Santa Clara, CA 95054.

Meetings will be held on the 4th Thursday of every month. Visit Meetup.com/bacomm for details.

If you can’t make it to the live event, join us each month on Facebook LIVE at fb.me/bacommclub. Events are always free to attend.

Announcing speakers Rick Knauf, Colliers International Executive Managing Director of the Bay Area Peninsula and Richard Smith, 4 decade real estate investor and tax professional!

We are pleased to announce our first speakers for the January meeting: Rick Knauf: Colliers International Executive Managing Director of the Bay Area Peninsula, speaking on lessons learned from a seasoned broker and investor.

Richard Smith: CEO of Richard Smith & Associates and 4 decade real estate accountant and investor, speaking on how to make the most with the new 2018 tax bill.

Through decades of involvement in real estate investment groups, we have found that the majority of resources focus on rental houses. There is very little quality education and networking that focuses on commercial and multifamily assets or how to best select and utilize syndications, unless they cater directly toward brokers, lenders, or established investors.  BACOMM will cater toward those transitioning into investing in commercial and multifamily assets, and it is the first club of its kind.

Tom K. Wilson founded Wilson Investment Properties as a provider of turnkey rental houses and then progressed to commercial real estate after realizing the benefits of deal size and economies of scale. The company is now a provider of high-quality multifamily and commercial syndications with data-driven metrics for savvy investors. Mr. Wilson has always been a believer in free education, and BACOMM is one of his ways of giving back.

Tom K. Wilson is a 5 decade real estate investing veteran who has bought and sold over 4,000 units and over $450M of real estate in 6 states. Active in many real estate investment associations, Mr. Wilson is a frequent speaker whose candor and competence makes him an audience favorite.

He is the weekly host of the Real Estate Radio POWER Investing on KDOW 1220 AM.
