How to Get to the Top of the List
Do you wish you could land more great deals from wholesalers? This month, find out how to get to the top of wholesalers' Buyers Lists — and how best to work with them now that HB62 has passed. Hear from Attorney Jenny Fields, Realtor (and Dispositions Coordinator) Jessica Yu, and Dispositions Expert Jenna Laemmle.
Register now for this March 23rd event at Woodhaven Country Club!
Good wholesalers are very popular people! As an investor, you probably want to know how best to build relationships with them and become the people they call first once they’ve locked up a deal.
That’s what our March main meeting is all about! You’ll find out the rules and best practices of working with wholesalers from our three panelists,
You’ll learn about:
- What to expect when working with wholesalers
- What you need to do to perform
- How passage of Kentucky’s House Bill 62 (the “Wholesaling Bill”) changes things, and what the new rules are
- How to build good relationships with wholesalers (and not tick them off!)
Please be through the buffet line and in your seat by 7 p.m. on main meeting night. Have your questions ready.
Early Meeting: The focus is on "March Insurance Madness" as Greg Nalley from Nelson Insurance addresses the room. Do you have the right dwelling coverage? Do you know what co-insurance is? If you don't know when you enter the room, you will by the time you leave! And have your insurance questions answered too.

New Louisville Mayor Addresses KREIA Investors
A little over a week before the Nov. 8 election would decide which man would become Louisville's next Mayor, the Kentuckiana Real Estate Investors Association invited candidates Craig Greenberg (D) and Bill Dieruf (R) to KREIA. We asked them to discuss their platforms and offer possible solutions to investors and developers in doing business and working to find answers to the city's housing problems.
Both candidates commiserated with investors regarding government delays and red tape each had personally experienced in trying to move their own projects forward.
The candidates spoke at the beginning of KREIA's Oct. 27th main meeting ("2023 Real Estate & Economic Forecast") at Woodhaven Country Club.
