Now, Lee county on February 4, Lee county on February 4, we got 79 parcels being auctioned. Parcels are pieces of land. Parcels are property.

Because y' all was so big in Florida, I'm just giving y' all 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 in Florida. Then I'm gonna do four more based on what cities y' all just told me y' all are from. Now, don't be just going on your wish city where you wish you had a piece of property. You tell me where you from, because I want y' all to pull up at the auction, okay? I want y' all to pull up at the auction. So we got Broward County, February 19th. February 5th, we got Marion County. These are going to encompass all the counties in Florida that y' all been asking me for. This one is one of my. This is actually my favorite in Florida. Polk County. Polk. Polk County, Florida, is my favorite auction in Florida. Florida, you get ownership right away. You go to the tax deed. I'll share information with you guys on how you can check liens and things like that. But I really buy from land banks, which you don't have to do that stuff. And then there's a live in person auction for those of you that like to pull up in person and go to auctions. But those of you that want it, like, like, this is the best way to do it. You go in person because everybody can't be there at the same time. You gotta go in person. Go in person to the Polk county auction. No, no, that's. Those are online. What? Polk, Marion, Broward, Lee county, and Putnam are all online auctions. You can do them from the comfort of your own home. Sitting home, drinking coffee, tea, whatever, chit chat with your friends. You can do it there. You don't gotta go. Lee County, Levy County. Somebody tell me how you pronounce this. Is it Levy or Levi? Levy County. February 10th at 10am There's a live auction, like in person auction. Y' all can actually go to and grab these properties. And you get ownership of the properties that day. It might take two, three days for recording, but you get ownership of them. All right, that's 355 S. Court Street, Bronson, Florida. 355 S. Court street, bronson, Florida. Yes. I took. I gave these to somebody who was in my high level mentorship. And y' all just went to Florida, so I just started giving y' all Florida. All right, so I see we got Houston. The Houston Land bank is where you can get properties from. We got Atlanta. Fulton county is another one of my favorites. Right? You can get acres of land in Fulton county from the Fulton County Tax Deed Auction. Just Google it. It's gonna pop up. I'm you before me.
You.
You didn't know what to Google. So this information wasn't as relevant as it is now. Now that you know what to Google, the information makes a lot more sense. Right? Man, my memory ain't that good. Who is that? Hanno? My memory ain't that good to remember the date. Just Google it, man. You gonna get there and you're gonna be like, yo, good looking out, Charles. I appreciate you. All right, now, look, here's what I want in return. Here's what I want in return. When you Google these auctions, I want you to screenshot it, tag me in your stories on Instagram, and say, thank you, Charles Noonan. That's all I want you to do. If you Googled it just now or when you Google it, screenshot it, tag me on Instagram and put it in your stories. Thank you, Charles Noonan, for the information. That's all I want y' all to do. I just Gave y', all, like, oh, some of y' all could. Could get net worth of, like, $50,000 increase based off of what I gave you. Somebody said Delaware. So we got the Wilmington Land Bank. Wilmington, Delaware Land Bank. Wilmington Land Bank. They got three programs. One, if you want to live in the house, it starts at a dollar. Two, if you want to renovate the house, it starts at like, $2,000. Three is $4,000. If you want to renovate and sell. That's their flip program. So you guys can grab those properties in Wilmington, Delaware, which I love Delaware. I ain't even gonna lie. Yeah, y'.
All.
I do be saying I love a lot of places, right? I do be saying I love a lot of places, right? The reality is I don't. I only love certain places. All right? Now I'm just gonna go crazy and over deliver because somebody said Missouri. Somebody said Missouri. If you from Missouri, shout it out. E, I love B. I'm. I will not. I will block you if you do not go to this auction right now. I'm gonna give you. If you do not go to this land bank, screenshot it, and tag me in your stories, right? Here's the name. C, I love B, Kansas City City Land Bank. Kansas City Land bank, right? It will also give you the Missouri. No, the Missouri is the. Oh, I gotta. I gotta get back to you. Missouri is Missouri. Tax revenue. Look up tax deeds, Missouri. But do. Do it, like, do it in this order and then screenshot it to me and then tag me on Instagram. When you find it, I'm going to tell you it. Because this is a dope killer. When I say killer, killer, killer, killer, killer spot. Like, this is under the radar. This is part of my $25,000 mentorship I'm sharing with you right now. You're going to have to do a little bit of work, Charles. Got a lot of work for you. You're going to have to do a little bit of work. Google this. Whoever finds it first, I'll send you $5 U.S. no, $25, right? Whoever finds it and screenshots it to me first, meaning whoever I put it in my stories with, I'll get y' all 25. The person was supposed to send me their cash app from last night. Didn't either, by the way. Here's what you gotta Google. Everybody could do this, right? Missouri Tax revenue, Tax deed sale, Missouri Tax deed sale, Missouri Tax Revenue Department. Google that until you find it. It's there. And here's what's killer about that one. Nobody knows about it. I got a whole presentation I don't got to get into, but whatever. Nobody knows about this auction, right? Nobody know about this auction. But it's like, size, like, over the counter. You do an application for the. For the property. You pay. I think it's like, maybe 10, 15, or $20 per application. Then they're going to send you an approval a month or two later, saying you got approved, and then they'll give you, like, week to buy the property. This is one of my favorite auctions. This is one of my favorite. This is. I ain't gonna lie. This is. I was torn between Kansas City. I was torn between Kansas City and Missouri. I was torn between those two. I was torn. But it is what it is. All right, let's get to it. So I gave y' all all the auctions. Now. Now it's my responsibility. So once I gave you all that information, you actually can't leave because it's my responsibility to teach you how to go to those places safely. You can't leave because I gave you all 25 auctions just now. It's my responsibility to teach you how to go to the auction and not make a fool of yourself. It's my responsibility to teach you how to go to the auction and not make a fool out of me. All right, so here's what I'm gonna do through this presentation. I'm gonna get through it rather quickly, but what I want to do, my goal through the presentation is to go through some of the things that you should not do right when you go to the auction. And I'm gonna go through them quick because, like, we kind of need this stuff. Number one mistake people make when they go to the auction, they don't bring enough money. If you want a property that's $1,000, bring $3,000. Just safely bring triple the amount. Two reasons you may get into a bidding war, you want to at least get up to the amount like they usually auction for what's old and back taxes. If you get into a bidding war and you're in person, you could stop at the double the tax amount. Because once it starts to go over, like, it'd be hundreds of properties. Let the person take that one, overpay for it, let them have it, and then you're going to have a backup list of properties. And you typically want to get a property at what the. What the bat. Taxes are that are old. So if you plan on spending or you like a property and they tell you the price is a ousand please bring $3,000 with you. Here's a quick little tip, too, Dana, you'll appreciate this. Here's a quick little tip. Find out from the auction. I'm gonna show you how you liquidate a credit card real quick. Make sure you pay attention. If you catch it, you catch it. If you don't, it wasn't for you. Find out from the auction, right? Find out. Guys, if y' all getting any value out of this, put a fire in the chat, please. If y' all getting any value, just put a fire in the chat. Just put a fire in the chat. If y' all getting any value. All right. Find out from the auction. Because people don't like to carry a lot of cash. Find out from the auction if you can send them money ahead of time. If you could send them money ahead of time, use a credit card. Send them money ahead of time. So if you're trying to spend three grand, send it to them with a credit card. $3,000. Now, here's how you liquidate. If you only spent a thousand, they're not going to put the $2,000 back on your credit card. They're going to give you a check for the $2,000. Now you have just liquidated the credit card. If you don't spend no money, they're going to send you back the entire amount. If you can't pay direct with the credit card, you simply ask them for an invoice or request for payment of the amount of money. $3,000. You go to this site, every single person right now, put this site in the chat. Melio. M E L I O, everybody. I know it sounds weird. I know you probably never heard of it. Put that site in the chat right now. M E L I O, everybody. Y' all gonna get 0% interest. Credit cards. You leverage the credit cards, put the property on the credit card, Sell the property. Right? Sell the property, get the money back, pay it off before the interest even hits. Pay it off before the bill even comes. If you doubled your money, you did phenomenal. You got miles, you got points. You doubled your money. And you look good amongst your credit card company. That's killer. No. M E L I O. Some of y' all didn't spell it right. That's okay. Just check your counterparts in the chat. Number two, biggest mistake. I don't want y' all going to the auction. And this is. This happens, and it's so embarrassing. Some of y' all go to the auction, they go so fast. You miss your property, then you gotta be the only one person that raises their hand and say, hey, yeah, I missed my property. Could. Could you go back? It's the most embarrassing thing. It's the most embarrassing thing. And then what do they say? They talk to other people. Yo, how'd you get here? Who told you about. Oh, yeah, Charles Noonan did. And you missed your property, so you. Oh, so Charles. So now they say, oh, Charles ain't teaching right? Right? Now they say like, yo, he ain't teaching right? Yo, don't mess with him because he ain't teaching right? The reality of it is that one individual ain't pay attention. So they flew all the way to Tulsa, Oklahoma, Got. Got the auction list, got the whole spreadsheet, did everything they supposed to do. The guy on the microphone went way too fast, missed their property. Now they're telling everybody Charles Duna sent them. At least I got to tell y' all up front, pay attention to the auction. Understand? Your. Your sale number, your parcel number, and sometimes they call it a CS number. Learn all three of those. I just gave you all the auction information. You're going to search the auction list. You'll see one of those three numbers for sure. Parcel number, CS number or sale number. Pay attention. They'll give you the sheet. When you get into the auction, they're going to give it to you. They're going to give you the sheet. Trust me, I've been to 100 auctions already. They'll give you the sheet of the auctions. Find your property as soon as you get there. Number three. You don't get that first property, you make a fast decision. This is the third worst thing you could do at the auction. Third biggest mistake you make fast decisions about. And you make fast decisions and buy a bad property just because you want to leave with something. So we got people that fly all the way to Tulsa, Oklahoma. First property comes up, they get into a bidding war. They don't get it. Now they in panic mode because I guess they thought nobody was going to be at the auction. They thought it was the only person that's going to be at the auction. I don't know why, but sometimes it happens like that, sometimes it don't. I'll be spoiling y', all and I'll be taking out of auctions where it be little people, it'd be just a few people. But some auctions got a lot of people. So here's what happens. You get dressed, you think you're gonna kill it. You go all the way to the auction. Flight, air, hotel, Rental car, go to the bank, get your cash. You got your cash tucked in like nobody know you got cash when everybody know you got cash, right? You at the auction, see all these strange looking people, they looking at you because they know you ain't a regular, but they like, what the hell is he doing in our town, in our city at our auction? He's just saying, hey, I got the same information, y' all got the same information. Y' all been getting the same information, y' all been using and getting rich off for a long time. Now I'm getting some of it too, right? But then you make a fool out of yourself because Bob over there gonna go against you and get your first property. So now you sitting there, now you mad at Bob. I'm gonna just keep it real because I'll be mad at other people when. When we don't get our property. It's a natural reaction. It's human nature. You mad at Bob. So you looking at Bob. Bob, Bob going for something. But Bob is going for the backyard of the property that he owns, right? Or somebody else owns. So Bob is bidding on a property that is landlocked. And you have nothing. You can't do nothing with it. But you gonna sit there and you gonna outbid Bob, right? You gonna get a landlocked property that Bob and his neighbor said, hey, let's just buy this thing. And we could have bigger barbecue, but you going hard, and you're gonna outbid them and win it. And then you gonna come back to me and say, hey, bro, I got this property I really can't use. It's landlocked. So what do I do? And the answer is, you gotta go ask Bob. Bob, do y'. All. You or your neighbors want to buy this thing from me? They gonna look at you and laugh. Maybe they gonna offer you less than half. Or you gotta ask Bob and his neighbors for an easement. An easement is like. And if you pay close attention, you'll see this stuff. An easement is like a little walkway through the person's property that gets all the way to the back that allows you access. A flagpole easement is that kind of easement where the property ends up looking like a flag. Now, I can't draw no flag with my hand. It look. It look like that, right? Whatever. I know. Whatever, right? So you would have to ask for a flagpole easement. Never think you're done. You can always sell properties from the auction. They sold it to you. You can always sell properties in the auction. All right. So here's some best practices that I gotta give y'.
All.
It's my responsibility. I just gave y' all 20 something auctions. It's my responsibility to teach you best practices when you go. So here, what you do, here's what you do. Research double the amount of properties that you want. If you want three properties, research six, research nine. Have enough properties that if you miss the ones that you like, it's okay. You could. You got backups. You got backups. Trust me, you feel just as good walking out of there with backups than you do with the first ones. It's okay. All right, get funding a month before and liquidate through Milio or plastic. So you could use those platforms to either liquidate or you could use them to actually go in early to the auction. Remember how I told you guys a lot of auctions will allow you to pay them up front because they know some people come with a lot of cash. You can give the auction your money first before the date of the auction. It's either through a form, there's a number of ways. If it's wire, that's phenomenal. You just go to Milio with the wire instructions and you just wire the money to the, to the, to the auction. Here's the best part. They're gonna eat, they're gonna mail you a check back. So you just liquidated your card. Now if you liquidated it and you paid it, you get the points. You get the benefit of the credit card company knowing that you paid early. Those are called client held days, meaning you only held the money for X amount of time. So you actually get rated higher with that. So when it comes time for increases and stuff like that, it's easy to get them. I, trust me, it's easy. I got, I just got one. All right, get the list ahead of time from the county and learn your parcel number and sale number. Because you never know what they'll call, what they will call at the auction. Some auctions going to call a parcel number, parcel number 890-05-0. Whatever the case, you got to know that at the auction you have to know your parcel number. They're going to give you a list, right? They're going to give you a list with whatever. If it's 600, they will give you a list of 600 properties. They may go in order of that list. You got to immediately find your properties. Bring a highlighter, find your properties, highlight them, know where they are so that as they're calling them and going super fast, you don't miss out on yours. Because I promise you one thing in an auction is absolutely certain. They are not going backwards. Because you missed your number, somebody else took it, somebody else sold it, somebody else bought it, they skipped you. Whatever the case may be, they're not going backwards. Guys. Comment the word auction if you see value in anything that I taught you so far, just put the word auction if you saw value. Oh, oh, oh. I'm so sorry, I did not introduce myself. I didn't introduce myself. I, I just thought because y' all was asking me states and everything, I didn't even introduce myself. I'm Charles Noonan. I'm the founder of the Land Bank Team. I grew up lower class neighborhoods, really poverty stricken neighborhoods. And I found this picture where I was a security guard way back, right? So now y' all know that's me, right? So some say I look the same, but I don't look like, you know, like that, that. But whatever. So I grew up as a security guard and I also worked a bunch of odd jobs like ups. And yes, I did actually work in a pizzeria. So for those of you that are watching, right, that could be why Italian food's my favorite food. I don't know. But for those of you that are watching right this live, that's a picture when I was a security guard and yes, I was a 6, 4 and 190 pounds. I, I wish I could get back to that, but that's a whole nother story. And then, yeah, I was doing odd jobs like security. I say that to say, like, had I had this information now instead of 400 properties being owned debt free, I would have had 4,000 like on a security guard salary right now you can go to one of the 15 auctions that I just mentioned and buy properties and level up. It's not for the rich only. It's not for, it's not for the wealthy, it's not for the real estate developers and things like that. It's for everybody, UPS workers, if they had the information. Oh, shout out to Karen who did both. Shout out to Karen who did both. Let's go. I love it, I love it, I love it. But I show that to tell you guys that you can go from working in a pizzeria, you go from working ups. We can go from security guard to where I am today. I own over 300 properties. I don't work a 9 to 5. I never will. I travel the world. I enjoy helping others pick, purchase, profit and protect investment properties. I'm also A licensed builder. There's a picture of my license right there. Y' all can take my. I'm a. You know, I'm a. Scream out my license number. Everybody. Put my license number in the chat right now. Put my license number in the chat for everybody that was a security guard, UPS, FedEx, DHL, Kinko State, all of that. Like. Like, put my license number in the chat because I'm a builder. I could build. My builder's license number is 29990 in the state of Alabama. Let's put that in the chat, y'. All. No, y' all got it wrong. Come on, bro. Bruce 2 is on the screen. Bruce 29990, go look it up. I encourage you. Go look it up. Find it. You find it. A Better Business Bureau. You can find it on what Birmingham site? Wherever they do the site. All right, So I helped a lot of y', all, right? And to. From, for account perspective, certainly over 2,000 so far, right? Easily 2,000. Because some of y' all on here got properties. If you got property for me, just put a fire in the chat. I appreciate it, but I got over 2,000 people. Properties. That is families impacted with multiple properties, which is kind of crazy. I know Charles McNeil got one in Birmingham last week. I love it. All right. This year I'm only helping. They got me to help 10 more people last night. They got me to help 10 more. So I gotta change that. I'm helping 510 people in 20, 25. That's it. Like. Like, I ain't doing no more. This is my group. We do parties, we do events. Oh. If anybody's in New York, I'm doing an event this Friday. Dme event. DM me the word event. Y' all could come out. We gonna have a party just like this. Just like this on Friday. New York City.

Come on, Deborah, don't do that now, Deborah, you gonna interrupt my whole thing right now. Let's see if we could bring her up. Where is she? Where is she? Invite us presenter. Now. Deborah has no clue. She said she brought two properties last night for $220 something dollars. I just asked her to come up. I. I don't. I ain't see Deborah, and I don't know how long. If she can pop up in here, she can. If she can't, she can't. But I gave y' all the places to go do it for yourself anyway, which is kind of crazy. God, just think about my life where people pull up on me all the time and they'd be like, yeah, I bought two properties from the info you gave me. I bought four, I bought eight, I bought ten. I changed my life. I gave some to my family members. I gave one to my daughter for graduation. I gave one to my son. And, like, it's so. It's such a blessing. All right, if Deborah can't come up, she can't come up, but I invited her to come up. Even though we got to get out of here the next 20 minutes, right? All right, so here, 2025, I want to show people that are highly motivated individuals that I want to change, that want to change in 2025. You have to be willing to change. You can't be in the Same mode as 2024 and get this, different results in 2025. Doesn't work like that. There's three places you gotta be willing to change. First place is identity. You actually gotta become an investor. I know you, you. I had to become. I had to go from security guard to real estate investor. Whether you doing it, you transforming half and half, security guard in the morning, investor at night. You gotta figure it out. The event's gonna be in Brooklyn, Karen, all right? You have to change your identity. You have to be an investor. And that's just up here, okay? You got to be willing to make a financial change. Deborah Smith Owens said she bought two properties last night. Like last night. Last night, which is crazy, right? She bought two properties last night for $220 something dollars, which is sick, right? Crazy. You gotta be willing to spend that money. You gotta be willing. I know where she bought it and I know she ain't gonna see it. You gotta be willing to trust your training. You gotta be willing to trust what you know, the education and everything. Oh, here she comes. Here she comes. Deborah, how are You.
I'm. Well, how are you doing?
I'm doing, you know, you just made my day. Even if I was having a horrible day, you know, like, you just made my day. You know that, right?
Yes.
But it happens every single day.
It does.
Like, literally. I don't know how often you tune into stuff that I do, but this literally happens every day. I almost can't get through a webinar, and I didn't even market or promote this. I can't get through a webinar with somebody popping up saying, charles, I got two properties. I got three, I got one, I got five, I got six.
Right.
All right, here we go. Now I got to put you through some questions. Did you see those properties in person before you bought them? No. I know.
No, I did not.
Let me ask you another one. Did anybody check your credit before you bought those?
No.
So you don't got to have good credit. You can have horrible credit.
Absolutely you can. Yep.
Did anybody call your job and do an employment verification before you bought those two properties?
No.
Did. Here's my other question for you. So no credit check, no background check. They checked if he was a criminal.
No.
No criminal. No criminal background. His check. No credit check, no employment verification. Could have had bankruptcies, Nobody knows. But you won the two properties.
I did.
How much did you pay for each? Because all you just put in the chat randomly interrupted my thing, my webinar, my real estate news rule that you bought two properties last night for less than $225.
Well, I heard materion say last night that I see.
We got a thing going on. Right.
Right. That he. That he had all those properties. Like, I just wonder if I still got it. Right. I wonder if I still got it. So he said he had bidded on some properties and walked away and didn't even know he had won them.
Right.
So I wonder if I can do that. So that's what I. Oh, you.
So you tried it. All right.
Yeah. Two properties. One was 110. One was 115.
One.
One. And both of them are near. Well, what. And I did my little bit of research. One is near. Both of them are near a golf course. Yeah. Within. Within 10 minutes of a lake. So it's like, I won.
That's amazing. He's looking like, now he gonna want to. He's like, congratulations. So y' all know what we do whenever somebody gets a property? Right. We all jump in on account of three because we are a community. Everybody put in the chat. Congratulations. One, two, three. Congratulations. Deborah. Smith, always.

Now, please, let me calm down. What are you going to do with the non properties?
Well, I thought I would. Well, some of them I've already given gifted to family members, so I've got some that I want to flip.
Okay.
And then. And then we're gonna build on some as well.
Okay. You got a builder?
No, I'm looking at you.
I don't got my license. Don't get me in trouble. I don't have my license in. In that city. I know the city. I'm not gonna say it. I don't have my license in that city.
Not yet.
Ever?
No, not yet.
However, I'm gonna give you a licensed builder right now, live on Newsroom. Right now. Watch this. Because you just had the heart to say, like to just type in that you caught little two properties. Okay? I respect it. Now I'm gonna reward you for that. I'm just waiting for your name to pop up in my phone. It's coming. It's coming. I'm gonna send you the builder right now.
Okay, perfect. Send me the builder.
Give me the first. Give me your phone number. Give me, like, the first three, because I know I got it in my phone. Go ahead.
989.
80. Got you. It ends in two. Seven, right?
Mm.
I got your phone number. Look at that. All right, tell me if you got it.
Hold on, Let me see. Yes, got it.
You go. There you go. Now, don't be sharing my people info, all right? Now, thing about that. Here's the best thing about that, Deborah. He owns a hardware store.
Really?
So all the supplies he's getting, super inexpensive.
Okay. Yeah, yeah.
Yes, yes, yes.
Okay, cool. Thank you for that.
That's my guy. Call him. Let him know I gave you the number. Let him know you got nine properties. We got somebody building there with 30 properties already. And there you go. I'm so happy to have helped you. Now, if anybody was on the fence about coming to Birmingham or by or the only thing that I have to offer today is coming with us to Birmingham. If anybody was on the fence about coming to Birmingham, what would you tell them?
If you have ever wanted to write your own story, Birmingham is going to give you the opportunity to create longevity. Long after you've left this earth with your family generational wealth, you can create that. But if you've ever wanted to write your own story and no one has given you the roadmap, you, Charles, have given us the roadmap to dream. Not only dream big, but dream in a massive way where we can put things in our family's hands. You know, put land in their hands, put property in their hands, start them off where we never would have believed we could have started. And one thing I will say is that my husband always believed in leaving something for the kids, and he passed away in 2021. So I have to carry his legacy on, even though he's not here. And I'm doing that in a way where I'm giving back and letting them see his dreams realized. Yeah.
That is amazing. I can't wait to see you. I can't wait to see you. Like, it's just like a family reunion is.
Yeah.
It will be like kind of like a little. Sort of. Kind of like a family reunion type of thing going on because we all. A lot of us know each other. A lot of us have been around for a little bit of a while.
Right.
And a lot of us have a lot of properties and are doing some special things, so.
Right, right.
Yes. So I'm so happy for you. Thank you so much for coming up. I'm sorry I had to pop up on you. I didn't know you hair done, scarf cooking chicken. I didn't know what was going on. Just know if y' all gonna be putting stuff in my chat that. Right. If y' all gonna be putting stuff in my chat about how much properties you got, I may call you up, because people just don't believe it.
Right, right.
They don't believe me when I say I have resources where you can get a property for 300. I never say hundreds like you got because it's just unbelievable. That's. That's less than someone's cell phone bill.
Right, right, right. That's true.
Never say that. But you guys say it. Now they got two people not to believe.
Right.
Or somebody's gonna believe it and say, wow, she don't look like, though, you know, I gonna be up here telling stories. Yeah.
I wouldn't. I wouldn't Miss Birmingham for the world. It's just like, it's my plus one. And I. We talk about it almost every day. And she's like, I don't know what I'm gonna be doing, but I'm following you. I said, listen, you're in good company. You gotta be.
Always learn at your own pace. There's no. I show you guys. I teach everybody. I offer you. Some are gonna do it today, summer, some are going to do it tomorrow. Some are not. I didn't talk about that town for almost a year. And then today you. You tried to do a Monterey rod, and you just went for what? Right?
Listen, I had.
I had to.
I had. Look, he had already wrote. He did the road map. It's just me to follow it, right? It's like, okay, if he could do it, I could do it.
So you get on the path when you. When you feel comfortable, just like, double Dutch, you jump in.
When you.
When you feel like, you jump in. Not something double, just. But I grew up on the block where everybody played, so whatever.
Yeah, yeah.
Hopefully y' all get it. All right, Deborah, I want to let you go and thank you for coming up.
Oh, you're welcome.
Thank you. We'll talk soon, and I'll see you in less than a month. We actually only have 30 something tickets left.
Oh, wow. Y' all need to get a ticket, because I don't know anybody that's putting you in rooms where you're. You're gonna win. If you're just in the room, you're gonna win because you're in the room. So definitely Birmingham.
Unbelievable. So, yeah, let me. Let me. Here, I'll let you go. Thank you so much. Call my guy Charles. Tell him I said hello. Call him right now. Don't call him before. All right, all right.
All right. Thank you.
Talk soon. Thank you.
Bye Bye.
All right, man. Magic just happens. I don't plan this stuff. I really don't. So here. I told you guys, you got to be willing to change your identity. You got to be an investor. She didn't change it to an investor. When I gave the information and changed back out, she changed into an investor. Saw those, thought about the sites I gave her, and then she went back and bought two properties because she's an investor. Right? The financial. Now that was a small financial. That's a small financial obligation right there. $225. Right? For two properties, not one, but for two properties. It's just insane. But that's the type of information that I give guys and then impact. She talked about impact. She talked about having impact. And that is something that it's not for you. It's the most unselfish thing that you can do. You see these people here who brought their kids, this is for them, this is for your kid. This is the most unselfish thing that you can do to have impact is give somebody a piece of land. Taxes are super cheap. You can do your due diligence and your homework and you get properties that have taxes for $40 a year. Okay? That's impact. You gotta be willing to make impact. I don't want my information to be in the hands of people. That's not, that's not about these three things. Don't just buy one and just disappear. Like that's not cool. You either gonna build on it, you're gonna sell it for a lot, a lot of profit and have impact on yourself financially. You're gonna get, give it to somebody. You're going to do a community garden. There's so many things that we teach that you can do with land and with land. Bank houses. For the $1,000 house thing, guys, you can go to the Detroit Land Bank. It's called building Detroit.org and that's the land bank where you can buy the $1,000 houses. I bought 40 of them. I know a thing or two about those because I've been around the block a little bit. After I got out of UPS and security, man, I was busting my hump to really figure out a way. So Here we go. Four years ago, I bought 300 properties in Birmingham. I read every, every morning, just like Warren Buffett does. For three hours per day. I study the real estate markets very, very closely. That's how I'm able to get people properties for $200. Hello. Sad but true. The worst cities in the country is get the most money. For years, developers have been investing in the worst cities and making millions and billions of dollars from this strategy. The strategies, the cities that are the worst. Think about New York City. The Bronx was burning. Brooklyn was dangerous. Everything was horrible. We started to get federal funding, federal money, federal money. We started to redo the roads. We started to redo section 8. We started to redo programs like HAASA. All these programs, programs, programs. Federal government. Helping, helping, helping. Boom. My neighborhood's $2.5 million. The Bronx is a million dollars. Can't get anything less. The whole city is just absolutely turned around. It's called gentrification. Right here's the worst cities in the usa. These are Just three. Detroit's one of them. That's why I wanted to give you guys that building. Detroit.org website. I'll read the other ones too. St. Louis, Missouri in Memphis, Tennessee.
Yes.
I gave y' all those land banks already, so you're welcome for those. All right. The next city, though, the next city that's gotten so much money and development is Birmingham. I'm going to just read these to you. You take the titles, you go do the research. I'll send you the link. If y' all want to come invest with us in Birmingham, y' all can. The website to invest with us is let's build birmingham.com. we gonna go rapid fire. Because I spent five minutes with Deborah that I really, really didn't even plan to. Governor Ivey announces growth projects pumping $7.7 billion in new investment into Alabama economy and generating over 10,000 jobs. That's part of gentrification jobs. Housing, Housing market. Oh, wait. Why is this skipping? Perfect. Birmingham city council approves funding for senior housing. Here's one. I got to move up a little bit closer. The complex includes medical, commercial, retail and housing components and is expected to generate $2 billion in economic impact. All right, there you have it, right? The proof is in the pudding. Birmingham approves $15 million for new family fund center at their crossplex. Tuesday. The Birmingham mayor Randall Woodfin, if you look at my stories, he just thanked me. Check my stories. Tonight, Randall Woodfin just thanked me. Announces the approval of $15 million for construction of a family fund center Crossbacks. That is downtown Birmingham. And there's the articles. Guys, just google this stuff. Read. It's only going to take you 15 minutes. This is a house that I built and that's why I did the conference. Let's build Birmingham. This has no dirt. I mean, no. This has dirt. No grass. This is where my grass grew. You can grow grass in Birmingham. So don't let your contractors when you build, tell them you want to do seeds and hay. It grows really quickly. They just got to go water it. But it grows. These are pictures of a house I built from land that I bought in Birmingham. This is a group where we just did like a visit. I enjoy you guys company, honestly. For those that want to come hang out Friday, just DM me event or. Or Friday, whatever. I'll send you the invite if you got Tara's number. X Tara for it, but just DM me. I'm also going to talk about it tomorrow and mentorship for those that are in mentorship. Mentorships closed but if you're in, you're in. And you'll be at this event tomorrow in Brooklyn, New York. Birmingham, Alabama is awarded $20 million federal grant for workforce investment. They bring the jobs, they bring the. They bring the. They bring the companies. They pay the companies to come. So they incentivize the companies. Company got 40,000 employees. Not 40,000, 4,000 employees. They'll pay them tax credits, all kinds of money to come there. Now their workers have to go there. If they're work now their workers got to go there. If their workers don't come now, they're posting jobs, people are moving there. That's how you generate revenue throughout the city, through things like this. All right? It's all planned out. There's no secret to how gentrification starts. That's me and the mayor. I was telling him exactly what I'm doing with Birmingham. There's 99 neighborhoods in Birmingham. And this is where I built my first two houses and then now decided to throw a conference. Let's build Birmingham. It's a national conference. The first time we are having 500 people in one room. Okay, 500 people in one room. And we are going over. Let me see, let me see. Here we go. I took a pause because I'm putting the link in the chat right now. Here's the link in the chat, guys. If anybody wants to come with us, I'll tell. Oh, who. Rocky. Look at Rocky. Thank you. Rocky. You have to be on staff because you a step ahead of me already. You put everything in there already. Perfect. There's the link. Well, here's what you get with a ticket to let's Build Birmingham. We only. And this is the realest and truest number. I don't, I don't inflate numbers. I've already achieved impact just with Deborah owens alone getting two properties under $225. I don't have to like inflate or fudge things and numbers and things like that. I just don't need to do that. We literally got about 32 tickets left. 32 tickets left. The link to get to Birmingham is right there. Let's build birmingham.com. but aside from the ticket, let me just explain to you guys what you get with the ticket. You get entry to our two day event where you can network with other members such as Deborah, Rocky, Bruce, everybody's going to be there. Basically, like our whole team's going to be there. All that are building in the same neighborhood. You're going to get 10 free, 10 master classes included. Like 10 classes where I go in detail, teaching you guys everything you could possibly need to know about Birmingham, about how to buy land, how to pick the land that you need, how to purchase it, how to profit from it, how to build. I'm introducing you to architects, builders, the bank, everybody. Like, I'm giving my entire group of resources to you at this conference. You'll meet them, you'll be in the room with them the exact same time as the conference. They're going to go up and teach and come sit down right in the room right next to you guys. It's going to be absolutely insane. All right, 10 free masterclasses that will teach you how to pick, purchase, profit, and protect your first investment property. Right? Learn from the bank who will lend with just a 500 credit score. So our lender will lend to you to build with just a 500 credit score. It's happened before. She came on in one of the master classes and spoke. So you actually get to hear with a ticket today. You actually get to hear from the lender that she lent to people who have just a 500 credit score. You can also structure your loan with no payments for six months while you bill. Those are a little bit of higher level. Those are for people who built four or more properties. So you can't do that yet. Here's the good thing, though. As a lender, as a new developer, as a new builder, they're willing to lend to you with no experience. I have my builder's license. My builders have their builder's license. Everything's on file with the lender. So it makes it really easy for you guys to get loans to build through the lender. No worries on experience. They'll let you use mine or our contractors. There's a couple of contractors shout out to Manny, who got his builder's license. Steve, who got his. Russell, who got his. All licensed, licensed builders. Licensed builders, okay? All licensed builders are going to be building. You're going to be able to meet with contractors and build your own relationship with them. You're going to be able to meet with the architects. I already had two architects come into the group and speak and teach and educate. Guys, it's so hard. Y' all have no clue. It's so hard to find an architect to work with you. They just don't. They ain't cool like that to where they just pick up the phone and start working with you. They work with who they want to work with. Okay? So this is huge. The architects have 10 sets of plans for you. To pick from to build the house that you want for yourself. Learn how to travel for free to the conference by earning 6 miles and points per dollar spent. So here's what happens. The passport abuser is a good friend of mine and she's like the queen of travel in America. She's been on every news station and she came in and she taught how people can travel to the conference for free if not for like the super low. All right, Learn from, learn from and build relationships with three different companies that will build from you. Learn from Realtors. The realtor that I work with that sells my properties, finds them, sells them, does whatever, runs comps. You'll be able to meet and work with my realtor. Learn from and build relationships with three different companies that will build for you. Learn from realtors who can buy land for you, sell your land or your house. Learn how to execute on different exit strategies. You got section eight, you got how to sell, you got group homes, pre construction, selling, furnish finder, Airbnb, VRBO travel, nurses, and pad splits. All that information will be given to you or taught to you as part of your ticket property tours on multiple locations. You'll see properties that are just being built. You'll see one, properties that are in phase one, phase two, and phase three. I'd like to show y' all a little tidbit, but I can't because they say I'd be giving out too much information on Friday. Y' all know I like to party, but I cannot dance. There's a networking mixer on Friday, so. So you guys will get to hang out and network with these people. This I can't explain enough how important building a relationship with people is. Building a relationship before you do business is extremely important for the simple fact that when you build a relationship and you call them, it is completely different. It's a completely different phone call. When you have a relationship with somebody versus you just cold calling, These people are going to give you their cell phone numbers. These people going to give you their office numbers with their assistant and tell their assistant, hey, I met Mike at the networking mixer. I can't tell what a networking mixer is, but it's a really, really nice place, right? High end, really nice place. I met Mike here. Mike is one of our people. Make sure you send them this whatever. If he calls, pick up the phone, send it right through because this is my guy. I promise you. I spent about 10 years in corporate America and I dominated their relationships. Is how every. They all grow. That's why they all Play golf together. That's why they all go out and hang out amongst each other's families. Because when it comes down to business, they know each other's kids, wives, husbands, family, friends. It's easy to pick up the phone and do business with people once you really get to know them. So that's why we have the networking mixer. If you feel like you don't got enough money, you feel like you don't got enough experience, come to the conference, meet somebody at the networking mixer that could help you. Come to the conference and meet somebody there that's willing to partner with you. Somebody posted in our group. Now, they this. They want to split a hotel with someone, which I thought was pretty cool. I'm like, hey, like, this is really like family at this point. You guys are sharing hotels, you guys are sharing properties. You guys are like. Like, this is just amazing in itself, what we're building. I haven't spoken to Deborah until she popped on here and told me she got all of these properties. But it's like we just spoke yesterday. I asked her if she had a builder. She said no, I sent her a builder just like that. So I want you guys to build relationships in the same manner in which I built over the years, but I want you guys to do it in one weekend. So we got the networking mixer on Friday, right? We got the networking mixer on Friday. Saturday we getting straight down to business. Okay, Saturday ain't no jokes, ain't no laugh, ain't no haha. It's straight business, straight work. We get into it. I'm teaching you guys. If y' all thought I taught a lot here, wait till y' all see the deck for this conference. I'm a teach like, like never before. All right, you're also going to get, at the conference, access to our credit and funding specialists. So we've had our credit specialists in the group speak and teach and things like that already. You guys get access to my credit and funding specialist now, but at the conference, you'll be able to meet them and talk to them in person. There's. Yes, there's going to be a special funding session there where you can get live funding right there. It's like, absolutely freaking crazy, but if y'. All. Oh, part of the bonus classes. We did live funding and got $225,000 in one. In like one hour. So that's like, super crazy. All right, guys, let's get to questions and answers because we are actually right on time, even though we had a guest speaker, Deborah, come in Here and just go like, she just made my week, honestly. Oh, Ms. Tamara is phenomenal. Yes, she is. So I see we got some stuff in the Q and A. Somebody said, oh, that's earlier when you guys were asking questions. Anybody got any questions? Put it in the chat. Not the Q A. Just put it in the chat. That way I don't have to go back and forth. Just put your questions in the chat about the conference. Let's go. It's not what you know is who you know. Yeah. Those relationships are absolutely everything. They're. They're everything. Having relationships with people get things done so much easier. And then it's like a chain. So if I know you and I have a relationship with you, just like with Deborah, I sent her my builder. She's going to use my name. He's going to treat her with the same level of respect and integrity as he treats me. So it's super easy. I live in Maryland. Does this work if I want to invest in Birmingham? Of course it does. Like, absolutely none of us really live in Birmingham. Out of 500 people, there's probably going to be 50 people that live in Birmingham. We're gentrifying the city of Birmingham. So if you live in D.C. and you want to invest in Birmingham, it's perfect, people. So we have, like, eyes, ears. I'll teach you how to put cameras on your property so you can see everything. Our builders will communicate with you daily and send you information back and forth, like, daily on your build. So you get to see everything. They're trustworthy, they're vetted. It's very different. This is a very unique situation. Go to. Let's Build Birmingham to grab your ticket. Let's Build Birmingham to grab your ticket. All right, now, anybody else have any questions? I see somebody put some questions in the chat. I see you got questions here. Yes. The date. I'm sorry, I didn't say the date. The date for the conference. January. I'm sorry. February 21st to February 22nd. February 21st to February 22. Don't try to fly into Birmingham. They have very little flights that weekend because we bought them all. Go to Atlanta and drive two hours. It's actually Central Time. So if you. If you got to Atlanta at 4 o', clock, you drove two hours, you'll be in Birmingham by 5 o'.
Clock.
You actually gain an hour because it's two hours away, but it's Central Time, so you actually gain an hour. The link to the website to buy your ticket is let's build birmingham.com. i know. Deborah got her ticket. Rocky got her ticket. Bruce Sherman got his ticket. We got a. I can't. I cannot start to name them, but we have, like, 470 tickets sold already, so we got less than 30 tickets left available. Guys, any more questions before we sign up? Because we are, like, nine minutes overboard. Nine minutes over time, but I don't care. Deborah Smith Owens was, like, amazing today. Any more questions? So we got five. We got time for one more question. Ruth said she got platinum. Congratulations, Ruth. Oh, oh, oh, oh. I left. I'm not going to talk about platinum because it's sold out already. So we're just going to leave platinum where it is. Sorry, Ruth. I know you want to brag about your ticket and all that, but I can't get into what platinum gets because it's kind of, like, too crazy. Do you have an option to get the same info from the conference if we cannot attend? Specifically how to build from the ground up? Yes and no. And mentorship, but mentorship is closed, so call this number. You may be able to get in and learn how to build from the ground up. Maybe, maybe not. It's 917-795-5413. Just asked for Rosa.

This isn't about us for today. It's about helping us for tomorrow. Karen, does the general ticket participate in Friday's mixer? No. General admission is the conference. Only VIP gets the mixer. General admission will get to meet Everybody because the 10 master classes we've already had two builders, two architects, the trust attorney, passport abuser, and the lender all in there. So you'll be able to meet them, but you just won't. There's an opportunity to upgrade. You cannot upgrade to platinum. Platinum is completely sold out.

You're late. She runs the programs and kind of manages the numbers that we do. So in our meeting in October, we call it our 10. 2. 10 months in, 2 months out in October. We said we only wanted to do 500 people. She's increased that because of last night to 510, but that's fine. Like, I can do an extra 10 people. No problem. I live in Philadelphia.

We do fight, but not a lot. We just. We. We've. We've been nine years together and just grown together. And we're very professional about what we do, and I'm passionate about helping people, and she gets to play a big role in helping people herself. So there we go. I need you to help me online because I'm an investor and I live in Nigeria. DM Rosalie, I hope you're on the call, but, yeah, Rosalie is amazing. She is. I'm blessed to have her. I am blessed, guys. Yeah. So if you're in Nigeria, you gotta just get to new. You gotta get to Birmingham, get to Atlanta and just drive over. We don't really do much without a state out of the country, investors. Because if you're here, you're here. If you're not, that's fine. But this is. This is only for the people that are going to be in the room. I want you building relationships. I want you building friendships. I want you building partnerships. This time in this era, in this day and age, we have to do it together. We have to. Everybody else is partnering. Everybody else is locked in as family. Everybody else is looking out for each other. We can't do it alone anymore. We got to do it. We got to do it strong. We got to do it together. That's the only way we're going to succeed. Can't do it by yourself anymore. Can't. All right, guys, that's my time. Thank you for watching this episode of the Real Estate Newsroom.
