As we near the Five Star Conference 2024, set for September 24-26 at the OMNI Hotel in Dallas, the list of guest speakers and educational offerings continues to grow.
Real estate agents continue to face various levels of adversity throughout their careers, and if you are looking for ways to increase revenue, the Real Estate Solutions Session is for you. This session will teach you how to tap into alternative revenue streams by using skills already possessed, and open new pathways on how to invest in the right opportunities to grow your real estate portfolio. During this session, attendees can engage with their peers in small, interactive table discussions on key topics impacting agents.
The Real Estate Solutions Session, set for Wednesday, September 25 from 9:30 a.m.-11:30 a.m. will be highlighted by two panel sessions and a keynote presentation from Bill Bymel, CEO & Chief Investment Officer of First Lien Capital LP.
A real estate investor and broker for more than 20 years, Bymel currently serves as CEO & Chief Investment Officer of First Lien Capital LP, a privately owned distressed mortgage investment platform he founded in 2021 which owns more 700-plus residential mortgages and REOs in more than 30 states valued at greater than $100 million. With experience in all asset classes of real estate, asset management, portfolio servicing oversight, and mortgage finance, First Lien Capital is shifting paradigms in the industry by establishing new relationships between investors and borrowers through the creation of win-win resolutions to sub-performing, non-performing mortgages on residential and commercial real estate.
Establishing New Streams of Revenue
After Bymel’s keynote, two panel discussions will highlight the session, “Alternative Revenue Streams” and “Build Your Real Estate Empire.”
Adaptability is a huge advantage to REO agents, no matter what the market is doing. The “Alternative Revenue Streams” panel will detail how real estate agents can utilize their skillset and knowledge to create new opportunities and increase revenue streams. Have you identified or exercised all options? Experienced panelists who found success through creative and alternative ways will help you discover new opportunities you might not have considered.
And while in the real estate space, nothing is built overnight, “Build Your Real Estate Empire” will explain how adding investments and companies to your portfolio is a challenge that the session’s panelists have plenty of experience with. Learn about beneficial investment opportunities from some of the industry’s best minds and how to build your real estate empire brick by brick. Find out where to start, how to grow, and what to avoid.
