Virtual Online Meeting!
FREE Online Creative Deal School! with Bill Cook and Vena Jones-Cox
Wednesdays, December 1st-January 26th
6:00 to 7:30 p.m. Central Time
When we heard about this, we just HAD to let you in on it…
Mega-creative dealmakers Vena Jones-Cox and Bill Cook are teaching an 8-week, online series of workshops to increase your understanding of the whys and how-tos of “Creative Finance” deals, ranging from getting owner financing to working creatively with partners and private lenders.
These aren’t your basic “What’s a subject to? What’s a lease/option?” kinds of workshops; they’re hyper-focused on making sure you have the skills—and inspiration—you need to actually DO them.
If you know something about why creative deal structures are so profitable—especially in a market where ALL the prices are “too high” and where competition is fierce, this series is definitely for you, because you’ll get actionable advice on how to get out there and actually DO them.

Wednesday, December 8th : The Missing Piece in Your Seller-Finance Negotiations—How and Why to Use a T-Bar When You Talk to Sellers. You don’t need to “convince” sellers to do creative deals, or “talk them into” it: you need to understand what their pain points are, and then graphically show them how they’ll be better off taking your offer. That’s called a T-bar, and we’ll show you how to use it and WHY you should use it, every time.

Wednesday, December 15th : How to pick the right seller finance strategy for any property One of the struggles in constructing creative deals is knowing WHICH tool—subject to, seller-carryback mortgage, lease/option, private loan, partnership, option—to pull out for a particular situation. In this session, we’ll not only show you how to narrow down your many choices to the right one, but also give every live attendee a flow chart that makes it easy.

Wednesday, December 22 nd : It's a creative deal, but is it a GOOD deal? Not necessarily: even no money down, no qualifying deals can be alligators that will eat you alive if you buy them.

Wednesday, January 5th : 5 ways to structure deals with private lenders and partners. Not every seller can, or will, finance deals for you; that’s when you bring in people with money. If you’re doing that CREATIVELY, you’re not paying hard money rates, or splitting deals 50/50, but you’re still leaving your ‘money person’ happy, satisfied, and wanting to do business again. We’ll also discuss how to FIND private lenders and partners. Door prize drawing from names of attendees actually ON zoom: Vena’s “How to Be a Successful Private Lender” course.

Wednesday, January 12: How to make a small IRA, 401K, Health Savings Account, or CESA into a big one with creative finance deals. The only thing better than doing creative deals is doing creative, TAX FREE deals. The problem is, most of us don’t have enough cash in those plans to buy whole houses…which makes creative financing the perfect way to take a little bit of money and turn it into a lot.

Wednesday, January 19 th : What to do before you get the deed. Sloppy due diligence, paperwork, and disclosures are the #1 thing that make creative deals go bad, sometimes YEARS after the fact. So let’s go through the checklist of what you need to do after you’ve gotten the contract, but before you close, so that your new investment stays a good one years or decades later.

Wednesday, January 26 th : Bill and Vena fight over the best way to talk to sellers about creative deals. By now you will have realized that Bill and Vena have very different approaches to doing deals, and that this difference in styles is what gives you the chance to see what fits best for you. “Negotiation” of creative deals with sellers is no exception: Bill’s a face-to-face guy, where Vena likes nailing down the deal on the phone. Bill likes to chat for hours, where Vena thinks that sellers don’t want to be asked about their deceased pets. In this session, they’ll lay out their processes and make their arguments for why their way is the right way, so that you can make your own decision that Vena is right. Door prize drawn from ALL REGISTRANTS (you don’t need to be present to win: a free pass for 2 to the Ultimate Creative Deal Structuring Workshop, February 4th-6th in Tampa, AND 2 free
