Anyone from novice to experienced investor will appreciate all the material we’ll be covering. This is a hands-on workshop, looking at REAL deals, so bring your laptops please!

This workshop takes place in a relaxed classroom setting. This is the perfect environment for attendees to ask and have answered all of their real estate questions. This weekend is stand alone OR is the first step in preparing for our upcoming spring Road Trips.

What is the weekend all about ?

→ Where should I invest ← Where we live has no bearing on where we invest. We find lucrative locations and travel to them. You’ll look at various markets and find your home location might be the best place to live but not to buy!

→ Analyzing the Deal ← You’ve found a diamond in the rough or a money pit???? Everyone has a different level of understanding of construction and actual real estate costs. We have painstakingly created checklists for plugging in all the variables. The numbers don’t lie. Find out if that deal really is a deal BEFORE you commit. You’ll appreciate the intricately detailed process all of our stock has passed prior to purchase.

→ How to build your team ← You know what you want, now you need a team to make it all happen. All successful people know how important their inner circle is. Trusted advisors, key employees and partners will make or break your success. We’ll show you how to build your team, what your team should consist of, and what each team member needs to contribute. Your team must be carefully constructed in order to obtain all the legal, accounting and professional services necessary to build your acquisition processes in the correct order. This foundation is critical to your success.

→ Setting up your Asset Protection plan ← As difficult as it is to acquire wealth, it’s even harder to keep it. Make sure your assets are protected and your wealth should be preserved for years and possibly even generations. This is not something to think about too late in your planning. Protect what is yours.

→ Managing your Portfolio ← You’ve accomplished the painstaking process of putting stock in your portfolio. Now it’s just as important to properly manage your investment dollars. We will go into what our back office management systems consist of. They are a constant work in process! We will also show you how to take the profits, tax deferred, and roll them into other lucrative deals with your predetermined exit plan-1031 Exchange. Your carefully executed exit is just as important as your thoroughly planned entry into your portfolio.

→ Putting it all together ← We will take our entry into one of our markets in painstaking detail to pull all of the above topics together in real life investing! Our goal is to have plenty of questions and answers during our process, accomplished by creating intimate groups. All our concepts will be demonstrated with actual documents and project documentation so you can see what really goes into making our venture so successful. We really love what we do, we love talking about and sharing our passion for our work. We look forward to having you share this exciting aspect of our lives with us.

Nyrik and Linda Huuskonen started buying real estate 23 years ago. They bought at the height of the market in the late 80’s. The painful mistakes they made then caused them to come up with a formula for buying real estate that ensured their long term success. Nyrik was able to retire from his contracting business at age 38 and devote his attention to his passion - real estate. They now own real estate in five states and are proud to have had their daughter join them at the age of 17 in building her own portfolio. She is 20 years old now and manages her five properties as well as working in the family business, located in Peabody MA.

Nyrik and Linda are associated REIA members and have been guest speakers at many New England REIA’s. The success shown to members of those REIAs who have participated in their worshops and road trips have earned them several repeat invites as guest speakers.

Nyrik and Linda have successfully taught many New England investors how to purchase properties and grow their portfolios. Perhaps YOU will be their next million dollar portfolio owner!

They will teach you:
* Buy Real Estate Investments with minimum 20% ROI
* Find and purchase single and multi family homes for less than $20k
* Create long term multi-generational wealth

5:30 - 9:00 pm

What makes the… “Buy Low, Rent Smart, Sell High” strategy so attractive today is that, unlike many models, the investor’s profits are not dependent on real estate appreciation. In fact, real estate appreciation is just one of six profit sources in the “Buy Low, Rent Smart, Sell High” strategy.

Topics that Andy Heller will cover:
* Why Fortune Magazine recommended the Buy Low, Rent Smart, Sell High program
* Why today’s COOLING market is a RED HOT opportunity for investors
* Buying Low: Learn about the untapped fortunes with bank-owned real estate
* What types of properties can you buy from banks
* Why a MOTIVATED tenant is the key to landlording fortunes
* How the “typical” lease options minimize, not maximize, an investor’s profits
* How to make a fortune in real estate AND help your tenants at the same time
* Achieve your REGULAR RICHES: Real estate fortunes for regular people… without the hassles
* and so much more!

Who Is Andy Heller?
Andy Heller real estate Neither Andy Heller nor his real estate partner Scott Frank, ever intended to become full time real estate investors. However, in their approximately 40 years of combined real estate investing, they have developed a long term real estate investing strategy that has allowed them to make loads of money while minimizing their time, effort and headaches.

On a part-time basis, while involved in successful non-real estate careers and putting their families first, Scott and Andy have bought, rented and sold approximately 100 homes. Additionally, in many years, they have made more money in their 2-5 hour a week “side real estate investing job” than in their 40+ hour per week day job.

Over the years, Andy and Scott learned a lot. They eventually developed the “Buy Low, Rent Smart, Sell High” program, which is a grounded and realistic wealth generating method. You can use it to buy one home, or dozens. Andy and Scott are living proof that it can be done, and it does not take a lot of money or a lot of time….just the desire to make it happen.

In 2005, FORTUNE MAGAZINE recognized the “Buy Low, Rent Smart, Sell High” program among the top five real estate wealth building strategies. After the Fortune recognition, requests came in for Andy and Scott to speak and teach others what they have learned during their real estate investing career. Shortly thereafter Andy and Scott formed their educational company called “Regular Riches”. Andy and Scott selected the name “Regular Riches” to show that “regular guys” and “regular gals” just like them can achieve real estate riches.

Andy was born in Canada, raised in Florida, has lived for many years in Georgia and California, and has studied real estate markets throughout North America. He has helped countless people in their efforts to realize their dreams, and he is ready to share his knowledge to simply and easily put you on the road to financial freedom.
