One of our members heard Walter speak and asked him if he would consider coming to St. Louis as our special guest.  He said YES!

Walter Wofford
Founder, Walter Wofford Realty

Walter Wofford has been an active real estate investor in the Jackson, MS area since 1981.   During his career, Walter has bought and sold over 1000 houses and renovated neighborhoods in his market.  He specializes in developing passive income by creating tax free net worth and cash flow through seller financing in the affordable housing area.

Walter is also focused on improving his local community with Affordable Housing for 1st time Homebuyers in his market.  A market very similar to the St. Louis area.

He teaches others how to help tenants become homeowners by creating short term discounted Seller Financed Notes using OPM (other people’s money) with Trusts and IRAs for cash flow and wealth generation.

His methods combine using wholesaling, OPM (other people’s money), retailing, note creation, and Retirement Account investing with Trust Entities and by doing so creates cash flow and builds his and other’s current net worth, creating profits for both today and in the future . . . tax free.  An unbeatable strategy for today’s liquidity crisis, and it can be successfully used in the St. Louis area.

If you are ready to really start doing less work and put on your thinking caps and make MUCH MORE, by creating a huge passive income stream that will last for generations, then you’ll love Walter’s presentation.

Seating is limited to 100 people so REGISTER NOW to reserve your seat.

It is not often that an organization translates into so many benefits.  However, the STLREIA™ is such an organization.  We joined and have been very pleased. The mini help sessions allow for a broad base of information covering many relevant topics regarding the "joys" of being in the home rental business. Topics can range from great bargains for appliances, materials, or great contractors to how to deal with pets, pest, or poor tenants.  We always enjoy the main speaker as well. We have learned many helpful tips even though we have been in the rental business for 25 yrs. The best part about being a member of STLREIA™ is that all the great tips generally translate into some cost saving measure or a way to increase your income.  And lastly, the monthly newsletter is wonderful. It's a win win situation.  We live 150 miles south of St. Louis and though we can't make every meeting, we find every trip rewarding.

The STLREIA™ is an excellent organization for anyone who owns investment real estate or wants to own real estate.  There is something for everyone, from the experienced investor to the first time buyer.  The monthly meetings are well run, informative and fun.  There is an excellent mix of speakers from the local experts to the national gurus.  There are also plenty of opportunities to network with those who know more than you, as well as the opportunity for you to share your expertise in mentoring others.  The monthly newsletters are an added bonus and are filled with interesting articles and tidbits. Having been a member of several REIAs in various cities, I highly recommend this one!  Come early to attend the monthly help clinics, and ask about the networking lunches.
