"This Success Summit is an amazing opportunity to learn, network, and grow your business.  I look forward to attending every year and you should too!  Sign up now; you will be happy you did."

Aaron Lebovic
Director - Denver Board of Realtors

"It was fantastic! I was a beginning investor with only one property struggling to find the financing for my second deal. I’ve since closed 4 more deals that I wouldn’t have been able to do without Pine Financial. Also the networking opportunities have been great. Being able to discuss deals with other investors, find contractors and property managers has been crucial in allowing us to grow our investment portfolio."

Scott Eskridge

Mortgage Broker, Leader One Financial

"The Investor Success Summit was a powerful networking event for me and my company.  The educational value from the speakers was great and really opened my eyes to how I can improve and expand my business.  It was also the best networking event that I have been to in years.  Every person I spoke to, including vendors, added value to my business and I was seen as a value to theirs.  As a wholesaler, I could not have asked for a better event."

John Brokken, Investor

I'd like to thank Kevin, John, Charles, and all their presenters for putting on an excellent conference.  Whether you're an experienced investor or just getting started you'll find something useful.  No sales pitches, no "gurus", just timely information for investors trying to make money here and now.

Property Management has become an incredibly complicated business that is fraught with financial risk and legal liabilities, especially for owners managing their own properties.  This session provides a concise overview of recent trends and regulations that every investor must be aware of.  A majority of the time will be spent on decoding the recent ‘legalization’ of marijuana, and how to enforce your policy - whether you allow it or not.  The session, time permitting, will also dive into critical trouble-areas such as security deposit disposition, pest control, and essential elements of a rental application and lease agreement to ensure that both the renter and landlord comply with CO real estate regulations, and that both are protected in the eyes of the court.
