THE PRESENTERS

T.J. McKinney

 

T.J. McKinney is an active investor in the Chicago area real estate market specializing in foreclosures and foreclosure marketing. He is also founder of ilFLS.com, Illinois investor’s #1 local data source for foreclosures, auctions and REOs, and educates local investors on the realities of profiting in the local foreclosure market.

 

T.J. has been investing in Chicago Area real estate and specifically the foreclosure market for the past 8 years. T.J. started as a hard money lender for a foreclosure investor, but after seeing the money that could be made took the leap of faith to go after his own foreclosed property deals. After initially acquiring most of his properties by ‘door knocking’ homeowners in foreclosure he realized he had to develop a better system. Today, he acquires most of his properties through auctions and his preforeclosure marketing system which includes an integration of traditional mailings, door knocking (by others), and a strong online presence
