A Lunch & Learn for Realtors, Investors & Self-Employed Professionals
About this Event

Stop losing real estate opportunities because of how your tax return is structured.

If you’re a Realtor, investor, business owner, or commission-based professional, you may be making great money — but showing too little income on paper to qualify for the properties you want.

That means:

❌ You can’t move quickly on off-market opportunities
❌ Your purchasing power is limited
❌ Investment plans get delayed
❌ Wealth-building slows down

This practical, strategy-focused Lunch & Learn will show you how to align your tax planning and mortgage planning so they work together — not against each other.


WHAT YOU’LL LEARN

✅ How mortgage lenders really calculate self-employed income
✅ Which write-offs can reduce your borrowing power
✅ How to legally structure your taxes for future home and investment purchases
✅ A year-round planning approach (instead of last-minute scrambling)
✅ How Realtors can help their clients become qualified buyers sooner



BONUS: Bring a self-employed client, investor, or business owner as your guest — at no extra cost.

Be the professional who connects them to a strategy that allows them to grow their wealth.



WHO SHOULD ATTEND
  • Realtors
  • Real estate investors
  • Business owners
  • Self-employed professionals
  • Commission-based sales professionals
  • Anyone planning to purchase property in the next 1–3 years
