Section 8 Courses

Imdad Rahman

Posted

I've come across some online courses, particularly those by individuals like Tom Cruz and Section8Karim, who claim to provide valuable insights and strategies for successful Section 8 investing. However, I can't help but feel a bit skeptical about the legitimacy of these courses. It's challenging to distinguish between genuine advice and potential scams in the vast sea of information available online.

I'm curious to know if anyone has enrolled in courses offered by individuals like Tom Cruz or Section8Karim. Do you feel that these courses provided valuable and actionable information, or did you find them to be more of a sales pitch?

Thanks in advance for your insights.

Hey Imdad, I haven't taken any of these courses (not need) but I've talked to several folks that have. I'm not sure if it's these guys specifically but people are paying $5,000 for some S8 guru.

It's insane.

Section 8 is not complex. I could send you a handful of articles that would give you the basics and you'd be fine.

I have 14-doors in Detroit and 3 of them I've placed S8 tenants in. I never took a course and just figured it out as I went. Again, it's not at all complicated. Save your money, do some Google'ing and you'll be just fine.
