Real Estate Programs

[JamesK]

Every night I see a ton of TV show ads on how to make cash with real estate programs. Programs like "Winning In The Cash Flow Business" by Russ Dalbey, "NO DOWN PAYMENT Program" by Carleton Sheets, "Multiple Streams of Income" by Robert Allen. I'm thinking about purchasing one of these programs and wanted to know if anyone already has and their feedback on it.

First off solidq is respectfully full of shit. I worked with an older guy when I sold timeshares who had a wife that bought the carlton sheets course and turned 3 houses over for profit in like 6 or 8 months time i think it was. She had no college or real estate background. I've also run into someone who went the russ whitney route. Payed 2 grand for a 3 day course, learned a whole shitload of useful shit and put it to some good use. In fact there were real estate agents at the classes. If i had the money and time to take the classes if they ever came around my area I'd go. He said the russ whitney guys will pretty much hold your hand if they have to to get you to buy a home for profit. And you get free tech support if you have any questions on anything, ever. You think those people at those russ whitney success gatherings they hold are all actors? Nigga please.

for a novice, these programs/books aren't bad. they get you thinking outside the norm when it comes to financing and creative selling.
the creonline.com website is a great suggestion(ton of good info there.)

Unless you have a 700 credit score? How the hell are you going to buy with 0% down?
It is a requirement of mortgage companies that you must put 20% for invesment properties. There are ways to get around this though, but you would have to be dishonest.

Dude without soundling like a cock here, have you ever even taken a look at these programs or gone to any of the classes that they offer, that is, if the course offers them? Ever hold a conversation with someone who has been through it and had it work for them? From what I've been told it's not about finding any house and saying ok i want it, it's about more or less finding people who neeeeeeed to sell, then using a whole slew of different tactics to take it off their hands below appraisal and turn around for a quick sell. You oftentimes don't need jack shit in credit.

it's 10% investor required now not 20% but you can get around that too with creative methods

*EDIT and by creative I don't mean dishonest. There's just no way to go into all this in an EF thread.
