Learn Some Great Negotiating Skills
2021-10-16 09:00 - 10:30 (America/Toronto) | Online event
This Session is FREE for VIP Members and FIRST Time Attendees.
Negotiation is a lot more than “haggling,” and, in my opinion is one of the MOST valuable skills, yet LEAST taught when it comes to real estate investing. Negotiation is a fundamental skill, not only in real estate, but in life. Simply, you need it to get MORE of what you want – to sell more, keep costs down, get better deals, to manage better, to strengthen relationships, etc.
During this OVERVIEW session, we’ll share some proven strategies, and introduce you to what DOESN’T work., and More.
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.
NEGOTIATING is the 5th of FIVE FUNDAMENTALS that will be the subject of our first 5 sessions of the year. Other sessions are:ANALYSISRENOVATION ESTIMATINGMARKETINGNEGOTIATING
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.
COVID is changing how real estate is done. A2REIC will help you adapt to those changes in real time, and help you to succeed. I look forward to seeing you there!

Hey everyone!
We’ve just been invited to one of the biggest film premieres of the year! DUNE comes to theaters on October 22nd but this is a chance to see it a whole week early.
“Arrival” and “Bladerunner 2049” director, Denis Villeneuve has apparently always loved the Frank Herbert sci fi novel and when given a green light for any project he wanted from the film studio, he jumped at it. “Dune” tells the story of Paul Atreides, a gifted young man born into a great destiny and must travel with his family and their guard to a most dangerous planet. As malevolent forces explode into conflict Paul comes face to face with the future.
You’ll find the trailer here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8g18jFHCLXk
RSVP to the event here and also be sure you sign up at the link below. Each signup is good as an RSVP for you and a guest.http://wbtickets.com/DUNEtsfbc
Keep in mind that space is limited for this screening. The organizers strongly encourage all guests to arrive early as it is first-come-first-served.
Enjoy the movie!Cheers,Jon

Learn How to Estimate Rehab Costs
2021-10-02 09:00 - 10:25 | Online event
This Session is FREE for VIP Members and FIRST Time Attendees.
Rehabbing costs will likely be your biggest out of pocket expense, and it comes into play throughout your investing career, and no matter what investment strategy you use. In some cases, your rehab expenses might even be MORE than what you pay for a property. You cannot know too much, have too many resources, or have too many good contractors on your team.
During this fast paced session, we’ll focus on some of the fundamentals that are often overlooked or under utilized by the average investor. It never ceases to amaze me as to how unprepared most investors are when it comes to this part of the business.
During this session, you’ll learn:–How to research and write a Scope of Work.–How to create and monitor Project Management.–How to find great contractors and build bench strength.–Additional resources for a Deeper Dive.
Obviously, in just an hour, this is not a comprehensive course, but it will build on what we learned in January, and help you to get in the disciplined habits of Rehab analysis, planning, and execution.
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!

"Worlds of Ursula K. Le Guin" Virtual Screening TONIGHT!
2021-09-22 19:30 - 21:30 | IN
Hi all,
As part of their fantastic programming, the Brooklyn SciFi Film Festival will be hosting a virtual screening of the brand new documentary “Worlds of Ursula K. Le Guin” directed by Arwen Curry. Check out info and find the trailer below.
Join at 7:30pm for an interview with the filmmaker, Arwen Curry. The film starts at 8pm.
https://brooklynscififilmfest.com/event-ursulaRSVP on Meetup and at the BSFFF website for free by clicking “Get Tickets” and getting your free “Virtual Festival Pass”.
“Worlds of Ursula K. Le Guin” Description:Best-known for groundbreaking science fiction and fantasy works such as ‘A Wizard of Earthsea’, ‘The Left Hand of Darkness’, and ‘The Dispossessed’, Ursula K. Le Guin defiantly held her ground on the margin of “respectable” literature until the sheer excellence of her work, at long last, forced the mainstream to embrace fantastic literature. Her fascinating story has never before been captured on film.
Produced with Le Guin’s participation over the course of a decade, WORLDS OF URSULA K. LE GUIN is a journey through the writer’s career and her worlds, both real and fantastic — an intimate journey of self-discovery as she comes into her own as a major feminist author, opening new doors for the imagination and inspiring generations of women and other marginalized writers along the way.
The film features stunning animation and reflections by literary luminaries including Margaret Atwood, Neil Gaiman, David Mitchell, Michael Chabon, and more.
