The class examines the process of selling or buying real estate owned by an estate.

What and Why of Probate?

You'll learn why we have a probate process, the steps to a typical informal probate in Colorado, and at what point in the process a property can be sold.

When is it necessary to probate, and when is it not?

- Not all properties must go through the probate process. You'll learn the implications and requirements of beneficiary deeds, deeds held in trust, joint tenancy, and tenants in common.

Personal Representative and Contract Authority:

- Does your seller have the official authority to act on behalf of the estate? We'll cover the process of personal representative appointment and what needs to take place BEFORE signing contracts.

What special closing requirements are involved?

- Whether the property was held as joint tenancy, tenants in common, or with a beneficiary deed, we'll cover the requirements necessary to properly transfer title for each scenario.

This class covers the changes and new forms effective January 1, 2022

This is two classes in one!

The first half of the class will cover the Return On Investment Quadrant™, and the second half will cover how to use the new spreadsheet!

Yes, you read the title right. Cash flow is NOT everything when it comes to analyzing real estate deals and creating wealth. It’s near impossible to find strong cash-flowing properties in Denver today as you could 9 years ago. Does that mean you shouldn’t invest? Invest out of state? Wait for the next crash?

"No" is the answer to all of the questions. Well, you could, but you’ll miss out on a lot of wealth creation.

Ask yourself, "Why are institutional and savvy investors pouring money into Denver?” It’s not because of the amazing cash flow or legalized marijuana. They don’t analyze properties with silly rules (such as the “1% rule”) or get hyper-focused on cash flow. It’s because they go beyond cash flow and use sophisticated deal analysis.

This class will introduce you to the Return On Investment Quadrant™. You’ll learn:

- The four ways of making money in real estate.
- How to manipulate the four ways to earn the return you want.
- How you can consistently make a 10% return without depending on appreciation or cash flow.
- How to analyze a deal beyond cash flow.
- Case study #1: A buy-and-hold rental
- Case study #2: A house hack

We’re not reviewing deals from 2011. No, we’re reviewing deals purchased from the MLS in 2020. This is a foundational class. We will teach additional classes in the future that build upon the principles taught in this class.

Investing Experience: Beginner to Intermediate.

Prerequisites: A basic understanding of analyzing properties.

Who is this class for: Investors and Agents.
