"The Hidden Market: The Wave of the Future", by Tony Youngs, on GaREIA's Blog:

The Hidden market consist of all those distressed properties you have seen in neighborhoods where there is no pride of ownership. You know, the ones with high grass, peeling paint, overgrown bushes etc. Usually they are in nice neighborhoods. They can be vacant or occupied, but none of them have for sale signs, no ads in the paper, not on the internet or MLS and because of this, nobody knows these homes can be bought. Maybe you pass by them every day and never even give them a second look. There are also hidden markets that are not obvious, I will teach you how to discover those opportunities also.

About the Speaker

Tony Youngs began his real estate investment career after attending a seminar in 1986. By applying the techniques he learned, he was able to make a profit on his first deal equal to a year’s wages at his regular full time job as an aircraft mechanic, an occupation he eventually gave up forever.

Tony found his niche in the foreclosure industry and has mastered the art of tracking and acquiring properties in every stage of the foreclosure process, from pre-foreclosure to REO. He is the author of the amazing “Hidden Market” System, a system of finding and acquiring properties with no for sale signs, no advertising, no competition, whatsoever, and  the “7 ways to profit from one foreclosure” system. These discoveries have earned Tony prestigious speaking engagements at some of the biggest real estate events in the world, with audiences of 30 to 80,000 people.

Over time, Tony has been involved in more than a thousand successful real estate transactions. He has negotiated with approximately 480 distressed property owners per year, averages close to 1,000 property inspections, dealt with hundreds of loss mitigation departments, and since the great foreclosure crisis began in late 2007, he visits and makes 75 offers per month, nationwide. Tony has attended foreclosure auctions in just about every state in the nation and established hundreds of contacts from cash investors around the country. Tony has done about 1,100 title searches per year by mastering the courthouse records rooms in all fifty states.

Tony has been a featured guest on countless radio and television programs, and has contributed articles and information to several magazines and data collecting services, including RealtyTrac.

What GaREIA members are saying about GaREIA:

"Steve Laube's Mastering Passive Income course gave me the tools I needed to perform a much-needed assessment of my current portfolio and business model, as well as create a budget. Steve shares his wealth of knowledge and experience, and personalizes this course by setting aside time to work with each student one-on-one. This course gave me the ability to make some big decisions, one of which included identifying and selling an under-performing property.

Managing a portfolio of sing family homes on your own can be very intimidating. Joining GaREIA is one of the best decisions I have made. It has given me a support system of other real estate professionals that are here when I need questions answered. No matter if it is finding a sub, help with a lease issue, or how to file evictions or tax appeals, the people here are so supportive, open and honest with their knowledge. I am not sure I would have made it in this business without GaREIA."

                 --Clair L. 

"I have purchased, renovated and rehabbed two rental homes in the past year. Through GaREIA, I was able to meet fellow investors that helped:

---vet my purchase decisions, giving me peace of mind

---provide advice such as how to handle lead based paint

---find a hard money lender who could help me secure my second property quickly

Plus, I saved $170 with the Behr paint discount that paid for my GaREIA membership within a few months!  I also received a nice gift card from Home Depot with GaREIA's 2% back rebate incentive program, which was $100. So my ROI, just on hard money costs alone is 81% ($170+$100)/$149 (membership).  Not bad!!

The Dealmakers and Intown Rehabbers Subgroup meetings are my favorites and always worth the time. My husband could not believe that people truly cared and helped each other. Then he met some of the folks when my house was being highlighted at the Intown Rehabbers' meeting - and then he understood.  Thank you GaREIA!"

             --Melissa U.

We hope to see you on June 12th!
