About this Event
Are you running a group home but renting the property? It’s time to change that. Join Mo Simmons of Synergy Real Estate Group for an empowering Lunch & Learn designed to help group home operators transition from renting to owning.
You’ll learn how to build long-term stability, gain financial control, and qualify for funding options like DSCR loans and other real estate financing programs. A lender will be on-site to answer questions and take applications, and you’ll tour 2-3 properties ideal for group home use.
Enjoy lunch, network with other operators, and leave with a clear plan to own the roof you care under.
