Real Estate Investing Club Shows Michigan Investors and Homeowners How to Secure Private Money for Investments

How a Real Estate Investor Finds Private Money for Building, Rehabbing, Buying Foreclosures, and Property Investments Alan Cowgill uses Private Lenders, not banks; to fund his real estate purchases. By doing this, he has created his own private bank of $2,000,000 in funds. Alan looks for "Win - Win" situations, where the seller, the lender, and the eventual homeowner can all "Win". He is not a Realtor, but a Private Investor. When ask about the business Allen Cowgill Said “I started my business by using banks, savings, credit cards, lines of credit, creative techniques with sellers (like land contracts or lease/options), and partners. Once I was self-employed, I was concerned that it was going to be harder to get loans to purchase properties. I had always been unhappy about how long the banks take to get the job done. I had it take 4-1/2 months on a house without a furnace. The bank didn't know if they wanted to make a loan on that kind of house, but that is what my rehab business is all about. Buy them ugly and fix them.

Just think, if I would have used a private lender on the above deal, I could have bought, fixed & sold the house and pocketed $20,000 by the time I got to the closing table with the bank. With private lenders, I have the funds available all the time. When a good deal comes my way, I can grab it because I know the money is waiting for me. While my competitors are scrambling around applying at the bank, I've made an offer and closed the deal. My rehab crew is all over the property like ants before the competition knows what happened. I love having private lenders for my business. So, a major benefit is SPEED to purchase a property. Let's look at another major benefit of having private lenders. My first private lender was my Mother. My Dad had passed away in 1989 and Mom had insurance money. She proudly invested it on bank certificates of deposit (CDs). When I became a real estate investor, I learned about finding private lenders and so I talked to Mom about it. She loaned me $5,000 and received 10% interest in return. I paid her monthly just like her bank did with her CDs. She was delighted and so was I. As my use of private lenders increased, I learned that some of them didn't need monthly payments and so I started to structure my loans so there was no payment until the property is sold. This is a huge benefit. Think about what this has done to improve my monthly cash flow. Now my Mom will always get monthly payments from me because she is retired and depends on that income. So, the second major benefit is improved CASH FLOW. One doesn’t have to make monthly mortgage payments, just let the interest accrue”

On Thursday, Alan Cowgill will discuss: • Why Use Private Lenders And The Importance Of Them • Building Your Credibility • Lead Generation • Closing The Deal • Rule Book Date: Thursday, January 18th, 2007 Time: 6:00pm to 9:00pm Location: Laurel Manor, 39000 Schoolcraft Rd, Livonia, MI 48150 Register NOW by Calling 248-762-0800 www.megaeveningevent.com Agenda: 6:00—Structured Networking 7:00—Update from Founders 7:30—Private Money Expert, A.

New Real Estate Lease Option Agreements

CD on Renting to Buy, Lease with Option to Buy, and Step by Step Instruction Forms


Beginner or an experienced investor, there is a tool that one will absolutely want to include in the "toolbox" of investment strategies the LEASE WITH OPTION TO BUY. It doesn't matter whether ones investment is "buy and hold" or "find and sell", one must arrange for exit strategies from ones properties to control the cash flow and liquidity.

Mark Maupin, Mr. Lease Option said “I’d already done two lease options, but after attending Mark’s seminar I realized that I’d made some mistakes. I hadn’t signed the purchase agreement at the right time, so my tenant is not on the hook as Mark was explaining. I went back and talked to my tenant and did what Mark had showed me how to do. Now they have paid me $5,000 down. I have another $8,000 note, and they are paying me $300 per month (on the note) until they buy the house. So I’m making extra cash flow and they are going to buy my house within one-half year.”

You can reap many benefits with a Lease with Option to buy program: • Significantly higher income and longer term tenants • Committed Tenants who take pride in ownership, by making improvements to the property • Creating Sales that could not of happened otherwise, at much higher market prices Does this sound intriguing? A lease option allows the Investor to provide the tenants an opportunity to own that is otherwise unavailable, so one can generally expect five times the number of responses on a lease with Option to buy than a regular "For Rent" ad. Once in the property, tenants who are taking pride in ownership and are often making improvements to the property. People looking to buy with a lease option are generally willing to pay a slightly higher sales price, often 15% higher, due to seller softer sales terms. In addition, receive a monthly payment towards the option fee (the fee being paid to grant the option) in addition to the monthly rent, thereby increasing monthly cash flow.

Mr. Lease Option, a Professional real estate investor and renowned speaker, Mark Maupin, is an expert on the implementation of lease options and other investment tools. They have been a part of his investment strategies for the purchase and sale of over 3,500 homes. Through his seminars and learning products, Mark is now making his broad base of knowledge available. One can specifically, learn how to: • Find the right tenants • Determine credit worthiness • Help tenants gain credit worthiness • Get above market rents Plus one can learn how to prepare a: • Landlord Favorable Rental Agreement • Seller Favorable Option to Purchase • Promissory Note • Buy/Sell Agreement Learn about important tax considerations when employing a lease with option to buy as an exit strategy Included Documents: There are two copies of each form included with this program; one has been completed with examples for illustrative purposes, the other is blank Exhibit A: Landlord Favorable Rental Agreement Exhibit B: Seller Favorable Option to Purchase Exhibit C: Promissory Note Exhibit D: Seller Favorable Buy/Sell Agreement

Southeast Michigan Real Estate Club Has Panel of Real Estate Experts for December 21, 2006 Meeting

Billboard Expert, Investor, and Speaker Gives Real Estate Secrets on Outdoor Advertisng

Billboards have been around for many years in the USA. The industry has drastically changed due to city and county regulation and zoning issues. Though they are very powerful and give the client the largest exposure for their dollar to the general driving public, billboards are considered ugly, unsightly and detractors from scenery in this earth friendly world. Many pioneers of the industry have found and do not share the huge cash flow from a well placed, 40 foot high by 14 foot by 48-foot sign. Usual nationwide income ranges from $1000 to well over $4000 per month. The zoning and permitting regulations have forced billboard developers out of the business but persistence in every endeavor is the key to success. Large or small boards are based on the income they can generate for the owners. Approval like any commercial development endeavor is a methodical venture.

There are family fortunes being made in the billboard business and it can be a generational pursuit for cash flow. Once the boards are generating income they have a multiple income value of up to 10% the yearly income. Very similar to the multiplier of the commercial and industrial property standards for valuation. If a billboard can be located on a major freeway or thruway with 40,000 cars per day it can generate a large income stream to its owners. The cost to erect a billboard is very competitive and is based largely on the cost of steel tubing for the structure. Many large advertising companies have moved into this industry over the years and look for more acquisitions as they are presented. Many independent billboard operators have owned and maintained their boards for many years with no loss of income.

National advertising companies will master lease the site from the independents and promise a preset monthly income or even a prepay of up to 20 years for the purchase or the lease of an easement to access the board for their own uses. The national firm can then pay the independent as an example $2000 per month and potentially create a gross income stream of $10,000 per month on a well-traveled road location. The largest current trend is the LED board inserts, which allow full daylight and night visibility to the tenants on the board. I believe the most watched is the video web driven site in downtown New York City. Check it out when you watch the ball drop in Times Square this New Years Eve!

Mr. Winter and his Students are pursuing various sites with potential in the Midwest cities for new boards or purchasing existing boards from independents that have no desire to push the income envelope. Many large advertisers are in many cities across the nation today looking for more value to reach people. The ever-decreasing market share of the newspaper industry has caused commercial industry to look for other more productive use of their advertising dollars for the most impact on the next generations. Billboards are one of the most profitable commercial investments due to the low cost of entry and with the largest net income for the amount of capital invested. There are many national finance companies for financing locations due to the cash flow opportunities.

Pat Winter, Mr. Commercial Real Estate, and his students from his Commercial Master Mind are pursuing many potential sites and will continue to build their portfolio. Once the site is approved it has developed a value that can be resold. You don't have to erect the sign. The permit is the most time consuming process and once completed will create value for the developer or investor on the next step of the income stream.

“Mr. Commercial Real Estate”, announces a new release in his Mastermind Group Workshop series on real estate investments, “Billboard Investments.” The new DVD video workshop is designed to clarify the process for making successful billboard investments. Mr. Winter states that billboards are an often -overlooked investment opportunity that is making a major comeback, though the advent of digital technology. The program includes information on prospecting, networking, acquisitions, sales opportunities, profit potential, selling future income streams, three-dimensional billboards, mini-billboards, zone requirements, finding an experienced sign company, cost and financing.

Mr. Winter identifies for investors the biggest players in the billboard market, and lets investors in on secrets the general public don’t know. For example, very few new billboards are built these days so the major players seek out Mom and Pop billboards, and then use their national contacts to bring in national billboard tenants. Pat’s video shows investors how to get in the loop on this lucrative advertising industry that is a less expensive than print or TV advertising.

As Pat points out, “Zoning is the biggest issue.” The video informs potential investors how to deal with zoning requirements, including B4 and C4 zoning requirements, in which nearby residents must be notified of pending new billboards. He discusses the minimum amount of space required between billboards. And he provides detailed information about billboard cost and the profits that investors can realize from billboard investment.

Author Announces Release of Action/Thriller

Christopher Hudson just announced the publication of his novel, Northern Cross. Published by Velluminous Press, the book is available on amazon.com, borders.com, and barnesandnoble.com.

Hudson describes his novel as an action-packed romantic adventure about aviation and international intrigue, colored with vivid descriptions of the wilderness areas of Michigan and Canada. Hudson says, “Northern Cross is a story of the heroic struggle of a man and a woman who must overcome deception, danger and overwhelming odds to save their lives and their love.” He goes on to explain, “The protagonist is George Ashton, a commercial pilot who has an ideal life, the perfect wife, and a brilliant future. But then a specter from his past comes back to haunt him. As a college student, George was involved with a radical political group and was conned into a caper that went murderously wrong. Now the ringleader has returned to blackmail George into flying an illegal and highly dangerous mission. George finds himself being manipulated and exploited by an old friend, and he soon discovers that in order to reclaim his life he must risk everything.”

Christopher Hudson was born and raised in Michigan, where he developed a deep love for the natural beauty of the region, which he says is reflected in his novel. He lived for several years in northern Michigan, but better job opportunities lured Hudson back to the metropolitan Detroit area where he became a self-described “on-and-off denizen of cubeville.” He worked for several major training and marketing firms, producing scores of industrial films and training programs, but he devoted leisure time to creative writing, resulting in two screenplays (one of which is currently being considered for production) as well as several short stories and video scripts. Hudson is also a private pilot, outdoor sports enthusiast, and an avid golfer.

According to one reviewer, “Northern Cross is more than an exciting adventure tale. The author’s experience as a private pilot and a nature lover add a dimension of realism to the novel that rings true.”

Amateur Boxing Series Comes to Southeast Michigan with Kick Off Event January 19, 2007
Al Low’s History of Successful Events Causes Rush for Tickets

Mr. Al Low, Chairman of the Michigan Boxing Commission will be hosting a series of amateur boxing events. Low has a long history in boxing and was Leon Spinks manager for seven years back in Spinks’ heyday. Low has promoted three of Thomas “The Hitman” Hearns fights in Detroit, one of which was the largest attendance in the history of Michigan boxing at Joe Louis Arena. Low has also worked with Emanuel Steward and many Kronk boxing fighters based in Detroit. There will be a few Kronk boxers competing on opening night at 59 West.

How cool is that to see a big league promotion being brought to our own area rather than have to travel all the way to Detroit to see quality boxing? 59 West in Highland Twp. will be the hosting facility of an amateur boxing event starting in January 2007. January 19th will be the first in a series of on going boxing events to be held every six weeks at the local Highland hot spot. The event will be held in the 59 West banquet hall and will include dinner and twelve exciting bouts featuring boxers from the Metro Detroit and surrounding areas.

Mr. Al Low’s most recent event was held at Mt. Brighton in November and was a huge success with the attendance well over 450 screaming fans. Ask anyone who attended and they’ll be sure to tell you the 14 fights were some of the best entertainment in the area. Tommy Hearns was in attendance signing autographs and gladly posing for photos for 2 ½ hours. Mr. Frank Garza was the ring announcer for the evening bouts. Garza has 20 years of experience in the ring as a professional referee and is presently ranked as one of the top 10 ring officials in the world.

Prior to that event at Mt. Brighton, the bouts were being held at the Family Fitness Center and training facility in Brighton. When the last event drew a crowd of just over 400, the decision was made to start looking for bigger venues. Hearns was training at the Brighton facility for his upcoming bout with his son Ronald Hearns for his upcoming bout. It inspired Mr. Low to work toward building and running a world-class training facility in the local area that is attended by both amateurs and pros alike. A portion of the proceeds goes to help promote the different boxing clubs in the area. It is all about the kids and helping them with boxing competitions and with life in general. Past sponsors have included the UAW Region 1A of Taylor, MI and their support has helped to make this a very successful event.

Contact Al Low at 248-390-1873 for sponsorship packages and ticket information. You may also contact Dan Collins at 248-529-3377. Be sure to get tickets in advance as the last few events were filled to capacity. Tickets go on sale December 8, 2006 for the 59 West events. The dinner event will be hosted by 59 West facilities, which is a 48,000 square foot, state of the art entertainment facility. The facility also includes two Banquet Halls, ten billiard tables and a bistro area, the West End Restaurant, an entertainment room and 59 West Fitness Center, Highland, Michigan 248-889-3304

Discover the Secret of How Young Unemployed College Graduates Can Generate Massive Amounts of Passive Income

Mr. Commercial and His Out of Work Student, Reject Offer of $150,000 for Billboard Permit, On His $5000.00 Cost Project

Mark Maupin, member of Nation Real Estate Network LLC, said “Mr. Pat Winter has exemplified it again by showing that what people say is not true. He does it by getting a billboard permit to install a Billboard. What is even better is that the process was not all that hard and he is giving his secrets way. Pat has also advised National Real Estate Network that he has two more billboards underway.”
