Hi BP community, Just curious if anyone has attended Than Merrill's Real Estate class and what they thought of it. It is advertised as a free 2hr class about flipping houses in the New Jersey area. Thanks for any input. Frank Ruopoli

For any educations, you will pick up a lot of valuable information if you are a complete beginner. I am all for education value up to $1,500. Preferably under $1,000. I much more prefer to include two-four days live seminar with it. You will learn a lot. It will save you more than a year of experience if you were trying to pick it up on your own utilizing free info and/or books. Nuggets of the courses are normally not even available on any free sites. That edge alone should be worth at least the tuition. However, never sign up for mentoring or coaching that values more than $3,000. 

Just like cell phone companies, they will be super nice to a potential and/or new clients. Once you become a client their job ends there. I had many many unfortunate experiences with famous gurus. Avoid coaching or mentoring at all cost if possible. If someone made their course intentionally omitting some valuable information and/or do not even provide a support via forum or email on their products only to upsell mentoring is a crook. That is my opinion. Have a great Memorial Day Weekend.
