Jeff Rappaport - Jeff Rappaport began investing in real estate back in 1999 through an infomercial. Quit my job of 9 years as a Youth Director in 2000 to become a full time real estate investor. I borrowed $2,000 to live on while I started my new business. Began by buying and holding properties with no money down and taking over existing debt. In 2003, became an expert at negotiating short sales with banks on defaulted properties. My business continued to expand into rehabbing single family homes, commercial and land. Bought some land in 2005 with hard money and sold it in 2006 for a $2.1MM profit! During the real estate crash I lost everything! All of the properties I owned were foreclosed. I was left with nothing. I was broke!
I was out of real estate for 2 years before I decided that was my calling. I had no money and most of my real estate network was no longer in that space. I decided wholesaling was the best route this time around. Over the last 6 years I have built a wholesaling company comprised of 4 core individuals and a VA. We specialize in many different asset classes – single family homes, multi-family, land and commercial. We work in markets all over the country. My niche is creative financing and I use it regularly in my business.
I am the former VP of the Utah REIA, run two Meetups each month, part of several Mastermind groups, have an Apprentice program and have been doing a Creative Financing Podcast for over two years. I believe in education and have spent more than $400K on my real estate education and continue to do so to this day. I have experience in teaching real estate dating back to 2004 where I did seminars to now where I have several platforms including our Apprentice program and my Creative Finance program.
