Ever since the 1st edition of my book
The Complete Guide to Buying and Selling Apartment
Buildings came out in 2001, I have had many, many requests to
provide instructional services such as coaching, mentoring, and training
through a seminar and/or so-called "boot camp" format. The problem for me,
however, was that I was always so busy doing my own deals that I never had
time to put a program together for investors like you who want to learn all
there is to know about buying and selling apartment buildings.
After doing in excess of $100 million in personal buy/sell real estate
transactions, I am at a point in my life where I am ready to back off doing the
deals and begin sharing what I have learned with people like you! So, all new
for 2012, I am now personally teaching real estate workshops that will help
investors learn step-by-step how to buy and sell apartments
.
1. I am not
interested in trying to pack a room full of 500 people to provide a cursory
overview of the apartment business. I instead will limit the number of
students to a very small group of investors who will be taught personally by me
and
NOT by
some inexperienced trainee. Limiting the class to such a small size will allow
us to interact with each other in an informal setting and thereby improve the
learning environment for each of you. There will be plenty of time along the
way to make sure all of your questions are answered.
2. I am not interested in charging exorbitant fees like many of the boot camps that range
anywhere from $7500 to $25,000 (and more!). The fee for this 3 day workshop is
instead a modest $3500, which is less than half that charged by most others. I
want to provide a select group of individuals with the opportunity to learn
first hand how the apartment business works without breaking the bank!
3. I am not interested in providing you with a bunch of useless information that only
leaves you with more questions than when you started just to turn around and
try to sell you another expensive program that answers those questions. I
instead will teach you by examining in great detail several actual examples of
real apartment deals. We’ll analyze them together so that before Day 1 is
over, you will know and understand what makes a good deal and what doesn’t.
4. I am not interested in presenting you with a lot of classroom theoretical nonsense that
is likely to confuse you. I instead want to teach you the practical
application of analyzing apartment deals as it applies in the real world. This
means that on Day 2, we will go out and personally kick the tires on several
different apartment buildings. It’s like shopping for a new car. You compare
and contrast all the different features of the vehicle and then determine
which one represents the best overall value. There is a wealth of information
to be learned by walking actual apartment properties. This will definitely
increase your understanding of the multifamily business by light years.
5. I am
not interested
in presenting all of this information to you only to leave you frustrated by
not knowing how to use it. I instead want to provide you with the tools so
that you can go out and begin buying your own apartment deals. Taking our car
analogy a step further, this would be like giving you a new car without giving
you the keys to it! Day 3 will focus on how to put the financing together for
an apartment purchase, the current state of capital markets and the near term
liquidity outlook for financing, as well as what to look for in an effective
property management team. We’ll also get into the remarkable opportunities
that exist
