Why the Real Estate Guru Programs Don't Work (and What Does Work!)

We've all seen them, the late night real estate gurus showing you how to make money in tax liens, foreclosures, brokering notes and the like. I know I have and I have even spend money just to see if there was something there that I didn't know. As a real estate and mortgage professional, I often found something of value which expanded my knowledge and put me in a better position as a real estate investor. But what about the average person who has no experience, can they succeed?

During these shows, you will hear success stories from seemingly average people who have above average success. There is always a disclaimer saying that the results are not typical however. Here is why they don't work:

1. We all have different learning styles. If you buy a video and your learning style is a reader, you might have some trouble absorbing the materials (and vice versa).

2. People are often skeptical of the upsells. Most of these companies will try to offer you coaching or hand holding services, but you called on the $39 offer, right? Not wanting to be sold, you decline all of the offers - but what you don't realize is that the odds dramatically decrease for your success without a coach or someone to walk through the process with you.

3. It's nearly impossible to go it alone. Most of your friends and family will give you a hard time about your purchase and you will very likely become quickly discouraged unless you find others to help you stay motivated. If you haven't done anything before it's always much harder and the success rate is always much lower.

4. You Don't Have the Resources. Investing in real estate takes lots of resources. You need attorneys to do title searches, appraisers to help you find value, contractors to estimate and repair properties, agents to help you sell your properties, mortgage lenders to help you finance your purchasers, property managers to help you screen tenants, and the list goes on.

Here is the Good News!

I am a part of a local real estate community that addresses each of the challenges above and then some, and gives you the best chance for becoming a successful real estate investor and entrepreneur. Here is what we've got:

1. Solid Training. You can learn the A to Z's of real estate from people who are currently investing in your local market.

2. Coaching. You will also have people that have "been there" who will eagerly help you, or even partner with you on your first few deals to help you achieve success.

3. Resources. Not only do we have the real estate professionals, but we have access to the properties that are ready for our students to move on.

4. A Proven System. Our system is hands down the best on the market. You won't find it sold on late night TV, but your neighbor just might beat you to it.

You will learn multiple real estate investment strategies, including:
- How to buy real estate with bad credit
- How to buy real estate without having any money
- Creating financing strategies
- How to earn short term profits in real estate
- How to creating passive income through real estate
- How to retire wealthy by investing in the right kinds of real estate
- How to help people facing foreclosure
- So much more!

If you are interested in learning the A to Z's of real estate investing to to take advantage of the rock bottom prices accross the valley AND learning how to help your friends, family, and neighbors that are facing foreclosures (and earning some money in the process), then call me ASAP at 800-453-9290. Our team has limited availability for the amount of people was can train at any given time. One last thought. Keep in mind that since 1963 the median price of real estate has increased every years except for two. Sure, we have seen some lows in the valley, but in real estate what goes down, must come up over time. Now is the time to get in the game.

I look forward to hearing from you and I wish you success!

Outpacing fiat currency with Real Estate!

Nice post Anthony!  Without a doubt, investing in Real Estate is an unbelievable way to generate true wealth.  Unfortunately, many of these programs play to the emotions of individuals offering life altering, get rich quick, promises.  What many programs don't tell you is that it does take a lot of time, education, and perseverance to start seeing legitimate results.  Failing is part of the process.

As with anything, true education highlights the good and the bad.

Roger, I agree that they can play on people's emotions, but as far as taking a lot of time and education, that is the value of the Nouveau Riche system, it cuts the learning curve way down by allowing people to work with and learn from those who are doing this on a daily basis.
