Ernie Vargas, PROBATE FOX program

[Anthony Johnson]

Hello BP,

Has anyone ever heard of and/or purchased a program called Probate Fox from a Mr. Earnie Vargas?  If so, then can you please give some honest feed back.  Thanks in advance.

I don't know Ernie on a personal basis however I think his stuff is ok.

He may have attended one or more of my probate seminars in the past. 

For a while Ernie was advocating the contacting of heirs of underwater estates in order to open probate and complete short sale deals. This practice has been stopped by probate judges who no longer allow the practice of super-priority orders to foul their courtrooms.

Ernie is a broker or licensed agent and operates as such. I've never encountered him in the field during a deal.

Most if the people who are trying to sell you something have another motive. Ernie resells court data and that will save you much time. 

Also, there's a lot of moving parts to many probate deals and it's good to have someone to bounce things off. That's important. 

While most of the players in this niche are not really active in the game, I think Ernie is. I've taught courses for other probate promoters, only to find out they're frauds as far as knowing anything about investing and just want the seminar income. I don't think Ernie is that way, however as a guy with a couple thousand probate deals under my belt, I haven't been inclined to take anyone else's training.

I go back to the 70's and have watched most of the info product marketing people turn out to be not what they pretend to be. I think Ernie is truly an active real estate guy who likes to teach.
