This broker introduced us to the banker who would finance our deals, from there, the rest was history. Within two months, we were able to buy the two multi-family properties we wanted to purchase after doing our due diligence. In addition, just recently with the new real estate model of Strongbook “Turnkey Real Estate” introduced by Dr. Teresa R. Martin to us, the members, we closed yet on another property. Within Three years we acquired three properties. Furthermore, by our association with REIA NYC, we became involved with the Elite Program, a superior coaching program where one can be coached on how to purchase bigger multifamily properties. With their help, we are currently in the process of acquiring a bigger multifamily property. Our fourth property in such a short span. Results you are seeing after using our membership/product/service Being in REIA NYC has tremendously helped us further our real estate investment. We would strongly suggest this association to anyone who is serious about moving his real estate endeavor to join REIA NYC. Describe what the process of working with Dr. Teresa R. Martin like Dr. Martin tells it like it is. From the very first time we met her, we knew she was a “gogetter” and as well as someone who pushes her members to take action. We listened to her and practiced what she taught us. Every month, she brings a different topic to the members. Education is a priority to her and she makes sure that we are kept abreast of any new economic or political matters that might affect our real estate affairs. How you feel about the end result The membership cost that the members pay is nothing compared to the knowledge, the value, the education that we receive as members. We are indeed quite content that we joined this association.
