JACK MILLER coming to the SJREI

I attended the Jack Miller & Peter Fortunado seminar in Reno a couple of weeks ago - it was very informative and there were lots of seasoned investors to network with which made it even more enjoyable. These two have been around for multiple cycles and have a good solid approach to teaching without the fluff, and no upselling. It was well worth attending.

Jack is 79 years old, and has done every creative deal imaginable in real estate - the seminar was chock-a-block with insights including the fact that Jack has done 500 plus deals with only one traditional loan in all of those transactions. We also got clarification on the fact that sales numbers are up because foreclosures are now being included in the numbers as sales. There are opportunities that we need to be gearing up for and increasing our creative financing knowledge is key with all of the banking meltdowns that are occuring around us.

Jack spends his summers in Reno, and winters in Florida - so before he leaves to hibernate in Florida this Fall we have secured him to come do a day seminar at the SJREI on Saturday, September 6th. This is really a coup for us as we have never had him present to our group before. Jack is old school with lots of great information to share; no product sales just content - so mark your calendars.
