News on the flipping law

Robert Penfield (of Kelley Penfield PLLC) will be speaking at the Real Estate Investors Association monthly meeting on November 12 at the Hyatt in downtown Bellevue.  The meeting starts at 6 pm and you can register here

From REIA’s website description of the event:

The November REIA Monthly Meeting will focus on changes to Washington State’s Contractor law under SHB 1843 for investors purchasing flips and holds, and serving as lenders, through their entities and through Self Directed IRAs.  This REIA Monthly Meeting follows REIA’s meeting with the Department of Labor and Industries, attended by Bob Penfield for REIA, Sue Schindler, REIA’s Legislative Liasion and REIA Founders Fox and Shirley Henderson, and offers direct opinions from L & I that relates to our Members and Guests.  

A small portion of the November REIA Monthly Meeting will be dedicated to this year’s donation recipient, Phoenix Hope.  Phoenix Hope was founded by fellow REIA Member Julia Williams in honor of her late son, James Williams, because of his overwhelming sense of giving back and making A DIFFERENCE in people’s lives.  Phoenix Hope helps people who desperately need help but may not have woven their way through red tape in time to serve their most pressing needs.  One of the best examples that are recipients of Phoenix Hope is the King County Domestic Violence program.

We will be collecting NON-PERISHABLE FOOD, NEW UNWRAPPED TOYS AND DONATIONS.  Many of the recipients are victims of domestic violence, including children who range from 0 to 18, so please bring “toys” for boys and girls of all ages.  The food collected at our meeting will be included in Thanksgiving and Christmas baskets for as many families as we can provide for.  REIA will GLADLY furnish a meeting room to MAKE the baskets if Members and Guests would like to ready them for delivery!  Meetings we have conducted in the past have FILLED AN ENTIRE SUV with toys and food AND we have provided enough cash and check donations to buy LOTS of holiday turkeys and hams!  Please bring your donations and checkbooks and join us as we give back to the communities that we ALL make our profits in!

The first 50 REIA Members or Guests who donate non-perishable food, toys or money for those in need will receive a FREE CD from rehabbing expert Paul Esajian of A & E TV’s “Flip This House”!  You can give back to your community and learn a thing or two about rehabbing from Paul so…
