Armando Montelango mentoring program
Has anyone tried the Armando Montelango mentoring program?
If you have your comments are greatly appreciated.
Can anyone recommend a mentor? How would I go about finding a good one? I want to get started in real estate investing but I definitely need a mentor. I was actually contemplating the Armando Montelango course but the price is outrageous and I'm not sure if they actually produce results.
FYI: I live in Montebello, CA.

Bump!*
Just wanted to bump this thread to the top so others can read it.
My partner and I went to his "free" seminar last night. The advertisement said he would be there with his wife. He was also going to tell us how to get hard money in our area.
YEAH RIGHT. He didn't show up, neither did his wife. Didn't tell us how to get hard money in our area. He did, however, send a very good speaker on his behalf to sell us his program. Since he is so generous he gave us a discount for being there, from $2,997 to $1,497! Wow!
The speaker did give examples on how to make some money putting properties that were in pre-foreclosure into trusts so that then you can take control of them and make a profit. Sounded interesting, but not worth $1,497. I figured that if I asked around here on BiggerPockets someone would fill me in on how this is done.
Again, free seminar, no Armando Montelongo (or wife) and all he did was hype up the crowd and try to sell the next seminar.
