I'm a novice investor.  I just joined AZREIA the night before last and attended my first Beginner's Series class last night.  I wanted to drop you a quick note to let you know how enjoyable the class was.  Those two short hours were so informative.  Thank you for putting together and leading such an awesome organization!  I'm looking forward to attending this Monday's meeting.  I'll see you there.

"I wanted to thank you again for taking time to meet with me yesterday. The information and council I received have been unmeasurably helpful and I now have many new ideas and plans that I know will bear fruit when implemented."

"Thanks again for the great weekend at the New Investor Boot Camp. It was tons of information to absorb, but I really got a lot out of it. You and the tem are the best!"

Kevin Dunbar

 

"Thanks for running a great organization. I've learned a great deal being an AZREIA member. My greatest lesson has been that I know very little and that networking and utilizing your good quality vendors is instrumental to success."

Emmerich Knoebl

 

"I just wanted to take a moment to thank you and Joan for all your hard work. I don't know about other members, but this organization is a dream come true for me. I found out about it at just the right time for my long term goal of becoming a successful real estate investor. The networking and educational programs are invaluable in helping me achieve my goals."

Lori Campbell

 

" I've been an AZREIA Investor Member since January and I've made strides as a real estate investor that I never could have made without AZREIA. I used a Business Associate for financing, who connected me with an agent. Now, I'm a member of a land lording subgroup. I am excited to continue, perhaps with some new avenues of investing that I know about because of AZREIA meetings and education! I could be a poster child for AZREIA except I know there are many others out there like me who've benefited from AZREIA and will continue to thrive. Thank you very much!"

Tom Healy

 

"I just wanted to thank you again for all your efforts with the New Investor's Boot Camp. It was exactly what I needed to be able to get started as a real estate investor. The people that you got together as facilitators and panel members were outstanding and the wealth of information I received exceeded my expectations by far."

Sasanne Lange

 

"Keep up the great work. I recently purchased a property from the trustee sale and sold the property 2 1/2 months later (DEcember 2003) for an $82,000 profit. I would never have been doing what I'm doing without the knowledge I've learned from AZREIA."

Scott Lydy

 

"Thank you so much. You know I think you are doing a fantastic job. I say that to everyone I speak to at the monthly meetings or whoever I tell to join AZREIA. I am super particular and your customer service has been flawless."

Debra LeMore

 

"I attended my first subgroup meeting last night. I just wanted you to know what an incredible value it is going to be for me, possibly the greatest value I receive from AZREIA and that's saying a lot!. It was, and I'm sure will continue to be, awesome. The networking and mentoring are great. Thanks."

Jeff Thornburg

 

"Please give yourself a HUGE pat on the back! (or two!) Although we have not been able to attend all of AZREIA's meetings due to work schedules and keeping our small little properties functioning in the black versus the red, we do follow the progress of AZREIA through your updates and the website. The accomplishments that you have achieved for AZREIA over the last 6 months are astonishing -- if only I had the time to be there for every meeting, but at least I can read about it in the Meeting Summary! Keep up the great work!"

Shelly Klie-Buckee

"I want to write and let you know that this meeting was great.  I appreciate you getting the place for the meetings.  It was easy to hear what was going on and see the speaker. You put alot of work into AZREIA and it shows.  I know I don't say it enough so I'll say it again. I'm so glad I joined AZREIA you have made it a great experience for me.  I was brought up not to get involved. Thanks for your insight."

Thank you for coming to Phoenix and for blessing us with your incredible dreams. I look forward to a long relationship with you and your organization. Yea Rah!!!!!! You hit a home run big time!"

Catherine Tucker


"Mr Dobbins did a great job last night.  He was a good speaker, showed a sense of humor and gave real, usable information.  He was very specific about writing things down, screening tenants and serving notice .  I particularly liked his suggestion of recording conversations - that REALLY avoid some problems!  He also made me feel very comfortable with is manner and demeanor and I would not hesitate to go to him for further legal advice. Thanks for a great evening, a great speaker and a great new venue!!!"
 

Ralph Guariglio

 

"It is time to give you a hearty THANK YOU for all of the work that you and your staff do. Sharon and I look forward to each and every Third Monday. The current meeting place is great, parking is convenient and the excitement is always welcomed. Mondays entire sessions were great. Thanks again and we will see you next month." 

Harry and Sharon Whilden

 

"I just wanted to congratulate you on another successful evening last night. It appeared to me that there were many new members and guests in attendance. I know that I was busy for the whole networking session meeting new people that have not been to previous meetings. This must be very exciting for you. It was extremely encouraging to me to see the great networking and the continued growth of the organization. I have had clients of mine that have been real estate investors for many years tell me how much they enjoy the monthly meetings. I just wanted to drop you a line and tell you to keep up the good work."

Andy Werner

 

"I just wanted to let you know that I have a fix up property under contract, we close Aug 25. I got it for 76.9, it needs about 10k in work and should appraise for 115. Thanks for all your help."

Jeff Thornburg

 

"Alan, thanks so much for putting on such a great meeting last night. I really enjoyed it and signed up for membership in AZREIA. I have been trying to do this on my own and was getting a little discouraged. It was great making so many good contacts with other people in the same industry."

Corey Keating

 

"Thanks so much for setting up the Options Boot Camp. Not only did we get great information from Barney Zick, but we met and learned so much from other attendees."

Chris Hudson

 

"I really benefited and learned a lot from Barney Zick this past weekend.  Great boot camp.  Your meeting have been very educational.  We appreciate the excellent leadership you have provided to the AZREA group.  Thanks you."

Thomas Sparks


"Good to see you Saturday . . .as always . . .at the Diaz Seminar.  You've been a great help to me.  1 Example of many . . . had you not E-mailed me about the Zick Seminar (since I was unable to attend the July AZREIA meeting) I would not have known to sign up for the Barney Zick Seminar.  That info from the Seminar helped me to do my two options. Elmer Diaz's Seminar was terrific as well."

Larry Goodson

 

"Thank you for a good meeting last Monday night. It is so reassuring to know that I'm never more than 30 days away from getting another good investing idea. It saddens the people at the brokerage houses to know that so many people are now in charge of their own financial investments! Thanks again for the hard work you do. Each time I attend I can tell you have put your heart into it."

Sandy Bennett


"I know you are very busy, but I wanted to just take a minute to tell you that I thoroughly enjoyed the presentation last night. I have been impressed by everyone I have met so far in AZREIA. As a beginning real estate investor it is hard to know where to go for answers. I look forward to learning much through this organization. Thank you to you and the AZREIA staff for all your hard work and dedication. You make it easier for people like me to get started. Thanks!!"

Patti Thompson

"Thanks a lot for putting together another great meeting. Don was a wonderful speaker and he was very informative. You have done a terrific job in getting quality speakers and putting together great meetings."

Andy Werner

"The class on Foreclosures with Mike was really good. The combination of gift of gab, excellent knowledge and great speaking qualities made the time fly by fast for a 6 hour class. There were a lot of good questions from the attendees that made for some good examples. The Foreclosure class was our second time to have a class with Mike and a third time to hear him speak. He definitely keeps you interested and entertained with his examples of what really happens. We do recommend his class to other investors. We have been really excited in AZREI and look forward to joining the subgroups and volunteering where we can. We have also gotten other investors interested in attending."

Brenda Gouge

"The AZREIA staff members approach their responsibilities with enthusiasm and dedication. The result is a highly professional organization committed to meeting and exceeding the needs of its members. The monthly AZREIA meetings provide an excellent vehicle to develop one's business. The meeting forum offers the opportunity to network with fellow investors, develop one's power team and gain insight from the educational speakers. Becoming a member of AZREIA has been a positive experience!"

Mary McMahon

"Just wanted to say that you're doing a great job. I really like the way the monthly meetings are conducted, the direction the association is going and the opportunities membership provides. I'm especially looking forward to participating in one or two of the small focus groups. Keep up the good work."

Jim Johnson

"It was a very enjoyable meeting. I know you said Dolf would be speaking for over an hour and a half, but it just flew right by. I could have listened to him talk another hour and a half. It was enjoyable and educational. Thanks!"

Randy Moore

"AZREIA has far exceeded my expectations, and even hopes, for an investor-centric organization. Instead of being dominated by real estate brokers who have their own agenda, it is driven by and for the investing public. Many thanks and keep up the good work!"

Jim Rowland

"I enjoyed last night's meeting on 1031 exchanges. I feel you are doing a wonderful job of creating a professional organization, and I can see many true benefits to being a member. My compliments to you and your staff."

Fred Meisenheimer

"Kamala and I thank you for your commitment to the success of AZREIA. We both enjoyed the meeting last night and look forward to becoming more involved."

Mike Jackson

"Just a note to say, WOW, that was a great meeting! Congratulations on another great success."

John Tucker

"Just a quick note from my hotel room in Sacramento to tell you that you did a nice job last night at the inaugural meeting. It was worth rearranging my flight schedule to attend. This organization has been needed in the Valley for quite some time. Again, a hearty congratulations."

Stuart Gethner

"At last we have an Association dedicated to the professional real estate investor in Arizona! The inaugural AZREIA meeting contained a wealth of information for everyone from the novice investor to seasoned veterans. The presentation on the goals and objectives of AZREAI was crisp and punctual and Mike Maloney, the guest speaker, was both informative and humorous. I believe the AZREIA focus on networking and education will ensure the long-term success of this valuable organization and I'm looking forward to future monthly meetings and the opportunities they provide to meet fellow real estate entrepreneurs and to become a savvy real estate "expert". Keep up the good work!"

Robert Hazlett

"My wife and I attended the AZREIA meeting on Monday and are really excited about the opportunities offered by the organization. We really enjoyed your talk as well as the guest speaker. We hope that you will continue to find speakers that are as energetic and informative."
