Learn About Some Great Passive Investing Opportunities
2022-05-07 09:00 - 10:30 (America/Toronto) | Online event
Traditionally, when someone mentions passive real estate investing, it is usually in reference to the “Buy and Hold” strategy of owning a Brick and Mortar property and collecting the rent without doing much in the way of additional work. While that is ONE way, it is not the only way. There is a seemingly endless variety of opportunities to invest in real estate other than these traditional ways. There are Stocks, Trusts, Joint Ventures, Notes, Becoming the Bank, and many, many more.
During this session, we’ll start to explore some of these options, and break down a few interesting Passive Investment Opportunities.
Passive income, or Mailbox Money is the ultimate goal of most real estate investors, yet it can seem daunting, and seem too far down the road for those who are new, starting over, or looking at diversification options.
The truth is, that passive income options are available to anyone, you can likely start (get in the game) for as little as $500, and you too will be an active investor.
During this session, we’ll have a good discussion, and explore the possibilities of some popular options, what to look out for, and teach some other creative ways to be a passive investor that you might not otherwise think about. Specifically, we’ll discuss:
-Crowdfunding
-JV Opportunities
-How to be the bank
and others.
We’ll take a quick look at opportunities like Fundrise, Realty Mogul, Million Acres, and maybe a couple more.
We’ll also cover land contracts, including a couple horror stories.
As always, it will be fast-paced, information filled, and designed to teach you something you didn’t know before while networking, and connecting with other like minded investors. I hope you’ll join me!
The A2REIC is about NETWORKING, DEALMAKING, and Group and 1:1 Coaching. We have LOTS of new Programs and Opportunities coming down the road in 2021, and we’d love to help you on your journey.
Our sessions are fast paced, information filled, and we provide great resources to do your own Deeper Dives. Each session gives you the opportunity to build your professional network, seek out off-market deals, and otherwise gain additional knowledge utilizing the MASTERMIND Principle.

They will spend nights in churches and community centers along the route, and thanks to the many volunteers your donation helps fund some of the homes they are working on. Briqlie is trying to raise $6,000 to get her on her trip!

Briqlie started biking with Start the Cycle in it’s first year, as she has grown she has stepped into a jr mentor role and while doing her own training for the 48 mile Ore to Shore in 2019, she made sure her brother and some of their friends and teamates got to get some practice miles in as well. The last few years she has happily stepped in helping where she could with her teamates on Thursday night rides.

Rainmakers: Finding and Discussing Off Market Opportunities
2022-04-30 09:00 - 10:30 | Online event
Finding Deals and Analyzing Deals are the bread and butter of EVERY successful investor.
Let’s face it, when a property hits the open market via the Multiple List Service, every investor and their brother gets pinged about it, and the most aggressive investors will have an offer in the listing agents email within the first hours of it being on the market. That is the main reason that you will need to learn how to “go upstream” and find those opportunities before the AVERAGE investor even knows they are available.
The RAINMAKER concept is about not only FINDING opportunities, but about CREATING opportunities. You’ll have to join us to learn just how to do that.
I believe we can use the knowledge, connections, and leverage of the group for the benefit of all, when we choose to tap into it. As promised, the Rainmakers will meet once per month to find and share new opportunities. You should join us.
When you ask any real estate investor what their biggest obstacle is, to a person they will say: “Finding good deals.”
The Rainmaker Team was formed to attack that obstacle head on by LEVERAGING the experience, knowledge, resources, and TIME of our 2100+ members to the benefit of all.
**THIS MEETUP IS FOR YOU . . .**
If you’re a REALTOR with deals to sell and upcoming opportunities.
If you’re a WHOLESALER with Inventory to move.
If you’re a FLIPPER looking for your next deal.
If you’re a BRRRR investor looking for your next deal.
If you’re a BUY & HOLD investor who wants to be more PROACTIVE.
If you want to MEET and NETWORK with other active investors.
Anyway, you’re invited to join us to learn the Rainmaker strategies to find off market deals for yourself, and leverage the efforts of your network of fellow investors to put them to work for you to bring deals to you.
We leverage our membership, and implement innovative and aggressive marketing plans that focuses on a mix of GEOGRAPHIC Farming, and DEMOGRAPHIC Farming to find motivated sellers and other opportunities.
We routinely discuss opportunities in multiple Motivated Seller Categories. SPECIFICALLY, we are pursuing leads from the following target markets:
1. Via NETWORKING through our growing membership
2. Via GEOGRAPHIC Farming
3. VACANT PROPERTIES
4. ABSENTEE OWNERS
5. BUILDING CODE VIOLATIONS
6. HIGH EQUITY OWNERS
Come join the party, join the fun, and don’t come empty handed! We are pursuing and doing deals that will never see the light of day on the internet.

Player Development Session with 9 holes
2022-04-29 17:30 - 20:30 | Northville Hills Golf Club, 15565 Bay Hill Drive, Northville, MI, 48168, us
I’ve been talking with Jordan McArleton at Northville Hills about a program he is setting up for this year. His “Player Development” program is aimed at giving instruction like he did with his college players he coached. The session will start with some range time for about an hour and then we move to the course to try and get 9 holes in with Jordan working with us along the way. The program works for any level of golfer.
This would be a trial session that I arranged for our group, cost is only $40 and includes the range time, cart, and 9 holes (if we can get it in.) I thought we would be able to give him some good feedback on the program afterward. Since this would be a reduced rate, Jordan asked that we bring cash or be able to venmo or paypal.
This seems like a great way to shake off the rust before the season gets going!
As with all of my events, it would be great to be able to stick around afterward for a beer or soda either at the club or nearby place. Not required but its a great way to get to know each other.

"Best American Science Fiction & Fantasy 2021" Editor: John Joseph Adams
2022-04-24 14:00 - 16:00 | Online event
Book of the Month:
“The Best American Science Fiction and Fantasy 2021”
Editors: John Joseph Adams, Veronica Roth
This month we are keeping a beloved Sci Fi Book Club tradition alive. For the seventh year in a row will be reading the newest edition of a short story collection called The Best American Science Fiction and Fantasy. It has been a Club favorite each year and takes a good look at the current state of science fiction by highlighting some new and established writers in the genre. Each story has to meet certain criteria that you can read up on at the editor’s website and are chosen without the author’s name attached.
Stories are selected by John Joseph Adams and a new guest editor (this year is Veronica Roth, best-selling author of the ‘Divergent’ series and ‘Chosen Ones’. I recommend coming back around to the Introduction by Roth until you’ve read the stories, it sometimes contains spoilers. The Preface is worth it, for sure! It describes the selection process.
Let us know in the Comments below which stories you like and feel free to skip one if you’re not digging it. There are always plenty of perspectives and approaches to the format in this collection.
“The Best American Science Fiction and Fantasy 2021” is available in paperback via Amazon and other online booksellers and is also available via the New York Public Library.
To join a Book Club meeting, all you will need is YOURSELF! If you haven’t had a chance to finish the book, we still would love for you to join us in the discussion.

Learn How to Become a GREAT Property Manager
2022-04-23 09:00 - 10:30 | Online event
Property management is much, much more than screening tenants, signing leases, and fighting over security deposits.
Each property is like its own business. You need to know how to manage that business PLUS a whole lot of legal restrictions and requirements unique to being a Landlord. There are also BAD Property Managers and GOOD Property Managers. We will challenge and teach you not only how to become a GOOD manager, but how to become a GREAT Manager, and in doing so, will contribute to future success that you may not realize.
During this fast paced and information filled 90 minute session, we’ll cover the following topics:
–The full and proper screening or testing of an applicant’s credit, criminal history, rental history and ability to pay.
–Lease contracting or accepting rent using legal documents approved for the area in which the property is located.
–Maintenance issues, Contractors, Building your Power Team.
–Fair Housing.
There are many facets to this profession, including managing the accounts and finances of the real estate properties, and participating in or initiating litigation with tenants, contractors and insurance agencies. Litigation is at times considered a separate function, set aside for trained attorneys. Although a person will be responsible for this in his/her job description, there may be an attorney working under a property manager. Special attention is given to landlord/tenant law and most commonly evictions, non-payment, harassment, reduction of pre-arranged services, and public nuisance are legal subjects that gain the most amount of attention from property managers. Therefore, it is a necessity that a property manager be current with applicable municipal, county, state and Federal Fair Housing laws and practices.

Learn to Become an Expert and Disciplined Deal Analyst
2022-04-09 09:00 - 10:30 | Online event
Analyzing Deals and Finding Deals are the absolute bread and butter of this business. There are lots of ways to do both, which meand there are a lot of potential rabbit holes to go down that take you nowhere. It takes time to learn the correct formulas, the correct resources to find accurate numbers, as well as practice, discipline, and, most importantly, YOUR plan and your strategies to achieve the results that you want.
During this session, we’ll highlight the importance of creating a plan, sticking to that plan, and how to analyze deals based on different strategies. As usual, we’ll provide you with a hotsheet of current opportunities to analyze, take a LIVE look at a deal or two, and teach you how to become an expert, and develop the discipline you need to become proficient at this critical skill.
As always, or sessions are fast paced, information filled, and we often have the benefit of other experienced investors on the call who share with us their tips, ideas, and methodology of DEAL ANALYSIS. We look forward to seeing g you there!
I cannot stress strongly enough the value of belonging to a supportive community like the A2REIC. Real estate investing is not easy, but it is made easier when you have encouragement, support, knowledge, and experience of fellow members to help you along your journey.
Moving into 2022, each Saturday Session will be in TWO Parts:
PART 1: Laser Class on Evergreen Investment Topic
PART 2: Hotsheet Discussion of NEW Inventory, Off Market Deals, and Leads.

Investor MasterMind Session
2022-04-02 09:00 - 10:30 | Online event
***”Analyze the record of anyone who has amassed a great fortune, and many who have amassed modest fortunes, and you will find that they have either consciously or unconsciously employed the use of the MasterMind principle.”*** –Napoleon Hill
A mastermind group is a peer-to-peer mentoring group used to help members solve their problems with input and advice from the other group members. The concept was coined in 1925 by author Napoleon Hill in his book The Law of Success, and described in more detail in his 1937 book Think and Grow Rich.
The basic idea is that none of us is as smart as all of us, and that everyone knows something that you don’t. Other benefits are that your MasterMind group can act as your own personal Board of Directors for your investing business, and members can help you develop more knowledge and resources to help you reach your goals.
During this session, we will discuss Second Quarter 2022 goals. I believe a 90 day time frame is the perfect amount to focus on throughout your career. It helps you keep on track towards your longer term goals.
Whether you are having a challenge in creating goals, or have some goals that you need some help with, this session is for you. I will begin the session with a quick overview of the Goal Setting Process, how to crystalize your strategies, how to best manage your time, and, most importantly, provide help, encouragement, and other resources for you to begin to take action! I have utilized MasterMind Groups for many years, and like Hill says, it has been a critical element of whatever success I have achieved, and I know that many of the most successful real estate investors I know, participate regularly in MasterMind Groups and events. I look forward to seeing you there!
The A2REIC is about NETWORKING, DEALMAKING, and Coaching. We’d love to help you on your journey.
Our sessions are fast paced, information filled, and we provide great resources to do your own Deeper Dives. Each session gives you the opportunity to build your professional network, seek out off-market deals, and otherwise gain additional knowledge.

Spring Training: Learn Investing Fundamentals
2022-03-26 09:00 - 10:30 | Online event
In the sports world, each season begins with a return to learning and practicing the fundamentals. Whether you are a rookie, or a twenty year veteran, the best and most successful players know that their success comes from learning, practicing, developing discipline, and utilizing their fundamental skills. These elite athletes will also tell you that doing the fundamentals is not the most exciting or glamorous part of the sport, but is the most important, and are the skills needed to achieve their goals.
At A2REIC, we have developed our own list of fundamental skills you need to develop, and topics you need to get a working knowledge of. This list has been developed not only by our personal experience, but by the personal experiences of hundreds of other successful investors.
Much like building a foundation of a house, learning the fundamentals is helping you build a strong foundation for your real estate investing “Home.”
During this session, we’ll give you a high level overview of:
–The Planning Process
–Creating Strategies
–Analyzing Deals
–Learning to Estimate Rehab Costs
–Learning to Find Deals
–Learning to Negotiate
–Learning Contracts
–Learning Due Diligence
–Learning Multi Family
–Learning Property Management
–Learning to Network
And much, much more.
We’ll do a deeper dive into these topics in upcoming weeks, and at the end of the next 90 days, you will have a strong knowledge base, and more confidence in yourself when you develop and practice these key skills. We look forward to seeing you tomorrow!
The A2REIC is about NETWORKING, DEALMAKING, and Coaching. We’d love to help you on your journey.

"Speaker for the Dead" by Orson Scott Card
2022-03-20 14:00 - 16:00 | Online event
Hi all,
Book of the Month:
“Speaker for the Dead” by Orson Scott Card (1986)
For this month we are returning to the theme of humanity and their communication with the other. With Becky Chambers’ refreshing take on interspecies relations in “A Psalm for the Wild-Built”, I think this one will dovetail nicely. I was hoping to get a poll up for this month but just don’t have time to research due to some sudden work stuff.
While “Speaker” is the follow-up to “Ender’s Game” it is spiritually very different. Gone are the days of battle school and intergalactic war. It is one of those few cases where I would say you could pick up this novel without reading the first in the series. That said, since we did just read “Ender”, this is a good follow-up. Card has said that “Speaker for the Dead” was the project he was actually most passionate about. That he had this short story about space battle school and needed to get “Ender’s Game” out before his publisher would go ahead with “Speaker”. They were even published in 1985 and 1986, respectively.
This Hugo and Nebula Award-winning novel is one of my favorites in the Ender’s Saga series. Enjoy and then we can close the door on Card. Looking for more details on it? Here’s the Goodreads link:

Learn About Student Housing w/ Guest Speaker Jason Hill
2022-03-19 09:00 - 10:30 | Online event
We’re pleased to announce that we’ll be joined by A2REIC member, and successful Student Rental owner Jason Hill. Jason has a great story about how he started, how he weathered a few major setbacks, how he stayed persistent, and is now operating a very successful property in a very competitive niche. He will share the good, the bad, and the ugly. What he did right, what he did wrong, and what he would do differently if he had to do it over again.
Student housing can be described as a Niche Within a Niche. It is considered Multi-family because most students are unrelated, but within the student housing world comes its own requirements, strategies, rules, regulations, upsides, and downsides, and as I have learned from dealing in student housing for the past 17 years, it requires a special mindset and approach that is different from other multi-family investments. Some investors love student housing, others won’t touch them.
Obviously, we are in the heart of a couple similar, but separate, and quite different student housing markets of the University of Michigan, and Eastern Michigan University. We’ll teach you those similarities and differences, but also equip you with some knowledge that you can apply to any College Campus market. We look forward to seeing you there!
The A2REIC is about NETWORKING, DEALMAKING, and Coaching. We’d love to help you on your journey.
Our sessions are fast paced, information filled, and we provide great resources to do your own Deeper Dives. Each session gives you the opportunity to build your professional network, seek out off-market deals, and otherwise gain additional knowledge.

Learn About Duplexes, Triplexes, and Quads
2022-03-12 09:00 - 10:30 | Online event
Many folks in the real estate investing world believe that the fastest way to wealth is through a sustained and systematic approach through investing in residential two-to four-unit multi-family properties. Most investors also believe that these types of properties are the safest way to invest as well.
The reasons behind this are many, but basically, the reasons include, if you do it correctly: They require less out of pocket money than others, conventional lenders like to lend on these more, and that the potential upside of these are better. We’ll cover these ideas and more at this session.
In reality, as you might well imagine, that with these types of properties being the most popular, competition is tough. That is where NETWORKING through this Club, and creative deal finding and deal making strategies come into play. We’ll discuss those too.
Specifically, during this session, we’ll also cover: How to use REALTORS to your advantage, Finding and Analyzing properties, Due Diligence, Making Offers, and more! I look forward to seeing you there!
