SEMINAR SCHEDULE
6:00 - 6:20 - Taylor Rens: How to File an Eviction Without Costly Mistakes
Navigating the eviction process is often the most daunting aspect of property management, yet mastering the legal roadmap is essential for protecting your cash flow and maintaining professional boundaries. This seminar strips away the complexity of the filing process, guiding you through the precise statutory requirements and documentation needed to regain control of your asset without costly procedural delays. By understanding the specific "why" behind each filing step—from the initial notice to the final judgment—you will gain the confidence to handle difficult tenant situations as a business decision rather than a legal crisis. Learning these mechanics doesn't just save you on attorney fees; it ensures your investment remains a predictable source of income rather than an expensive legal liability.

 

6:30 - 6:50 - Jeff Bertrandt: Navigating the Appraiser's Invisible Checklist to Maximize Your Next Deal
The difference between a record-breaking profit and a stalled closing often comes down to a single appraisal report, yet most investors leave this critical milestone entirely to chance. This session strips away the mystery of the valuation process, providing a tactical deep dive into the specific metrics, hidden red flags, and "invisible" checklists that appraisers use to judge your finished project. By learning how to see your flip through a professional lens, you will gain the ability to strategically align your renovations with high-value adjustments, effectively defending your ARV and ensuring your next deal closes at its maximum financial potential.

7:00 - 7:20 - Tanya Holland: How to Read a Closing Statement Like a Pro
Stop treating the settlement sheet as a formality and start using it as a diagnostic tool to protect your bottom line by mastering the high-level overview of every credit, debit, and prorated fee. This session equips you to navigate the complexities of the closing statement with confidence, ensuring you can quickly identify inaccuracies and "junk fees" before they quietly drain your deal's profit.

7:30 - 7:50 - Kesha Wilkinson: Setting Up Your First Mid-Term Rental
The mid-term rental strategy offers a lucrative middle ground between the stability of long-term leases and the high-yield, high-intensity demands of short-term stays. This session deconstructs the essential infrastructure required to attract high-quality professional tenants—such as traveling nurses and corporate relocations—who require stays of 30 days or more. By mastering the specific property standards, furnishing essentials, and placement platforms unique to this niche, you will learn how to command premium rents while significantly reducing turnover and wear-and-tear. Understanding these setup fundamentals allows you to transform a standard asset into a specialized solution for a high-intent market, maximizing your cash flow without the constant management of a vacation rental.
