Real Estate Investing with None of Your Own Money or Credit Ben Walhood will Show You How, with 3 Simple Techniques!
Real Estate Investors Education Event:
What’s preventing you from getting started in real estate and growing your passive income streams? Is it a lack of money? Lack of great credit? STOP MAKING EXCUSES! Every day, people with fewer resources than you are buying real estate and earning Financial Freedom. Ben Walhood will teach you how they’re doing it and how you can too. And if you do have cash to put down on your next deal, Ben will show you why you should NOT use it. If your income and net worth haven’t been growing as fast as you had hoped, register for this event now!
Ben is a real estate investor operating predominantly in the suburbs of
Chicago, IL and Tampa, FL. His primary strategy is to fix-and-rent residential properties in working class neighborhoods, including condos, single family homes, and apartment buildings. He has been a landlord since 2005 and left his neurosurgery sales position at the end of 2013 to pursue his passion full-time.
Ben typically purchases properties using financing from a combination of hard money and private lenders, then works with community banks and securitized commercial lenders to refinance into a lower rate.
He has been interviewed by CNBC and the Chicago Tribune, and he has been a featured guest on the Bigger Pockets Podcast, the Freedom Real Estate Investing Podcast, the Best Ever Real Estate Podcast, and Target Market Insights with John Casmon.
He is the former President of the Chicago Area REIA, the largest non-profit REIA in the state of IL, President of Apex Renovations Inc, and Founder of Apex Landlord Services, LLC.
Ben currently lives in Cedar Rapids, IA with his wife and 4 young children. He enjoys water skiing, motorcycle racing, and traveling with his family.
