"EPA CERTIFIED RENOVATOR" TRAINING

Do You Work with Real Estate?  You Must Be LEAD SAFE CERTIFIED as of April 22nd.

To all owners, realtors, investors, property managers, contractors, electricians, plumbers and painters. Do you ever engage in any level of renovation? If so, read this:

Any renovator, from owners to contractors, from plumbers to electricians to painters, who disturbs lead paint while working in a pre-1978 home, school or day care center, now must be Lead-Safe Certified.  If you’re not, you can face tens of thousands of dollars in fines. Plus, you put the health of yourself, your workers and your customers at risk, which could result in lawsuits. One simple 8 hour class certifies you for five years. It’s that easy.

Since April 22, 2010, there are new Federal rules regarding how you perform any work that disturbs lead-based paint in homes, child-care facilities and schools built before 1978.  You now must be EPA certified and follow specific work practices to prevent lead contamination.

Failure to follow the new rules can result in federal fines of up to $32,500 per day or up to 5 years in federal prison, or both. Don’t take a chance - it’s not worth it.

How To Become an EPA Certified Renovator:

In just one day, John Adams will teach you how to meet all EPA requirements and become an “EPA Certified Renovator.”

John Adams Presents

“The MetroVestAtlanta.com REO Bus Tour”

Get on the bus for a tour of South DeKalb County’s “Real Estate Owned” homes. Each house you visit will be available that day for purchase at a giveaway price, regardless of current condition. Financing is available!

Throughout the day, we will hear from mortgage providers, people in the construction business and property managers all discussing today’s situation with Bank Owned REO properties.

Who Should Attend:  Investors, Realtors, Lenders, Prospective Buyers, and anyone who might want to buy a super-bargain house and either do the rehab themselves or have all the work performed by the pros.

You will see abandoned dumps and finished products, and everything in between.  And Snap will be there to answer all your questions and explain the rehab and rental strategies.
 
Saturday, August 21st, 9:30 AM to 4:00 PM
 
Your $49 fee includes the bus tour and lunch.  You must make reservations.  No walk-ups.
 
There is limited seating and the seats are filling fast. ACT NOW before you miss the bus.
 
We will be meeting at Suburban Plaza, 2643 N. Decatur Road and Church Street, Lower Level, Decatur 30033 (beneath Hancock Fabrics, in the arcade.)
