All,

I am just stating out and am interested in small apartment complexes.  I am considering purchasing a small apartment home study course produced by Lance Edwards.  I was wondering if anyone had any experience with this program.  Any insight would be more than welcome and I would love to hear any suggestions that anyone has related to alternatives.  

Best Regards,

Ryan McLean

I did attend Anthony Chara's boot camp. It was far more realistic than, say, Dave Lindahl or Lance Edwards--who tend to portray buying apartment buildings as being as easy as falling off a log. After the boot camp, Anthony divided the attendees into groups within which we completed homework for six weeks, the results of which were discussed each following week. (Many in the groups didn't do the homework or quit altogether.) Anthony's techniques obviously work, but I'm not sure you couldn't learn the strategies (map out time to research, then research the metrics of the areas you wish to buy in, call local brokers, establish rapport, find apartment buildings at a fair price, go out and raise the money to purchase them, and manage your properties) from a book on Amazon such as "The Complete Guide to Buying and Selling Apartment Buildings." In fact, NONE of these workshop leaders tell you anything you couldn't get from a good book for a fraction of the cost or right here for free at Bigger Pockets.
