I bought in at the lowest tier after avoiding my friend for a few years. For many of the reasons listed above I will not sell it. I'm not exactly new to realestate, but I still feel really inexperienced. I grew up with parents who did realestate, own a few properties and help manage a commercial property. All that being said, I purchased in an area that has an active community of honest and motivated individuals. I think this is key. It's not part of the "education package", but it's a great bonus if you're fortunate enough to be by a community. The larger offices Livestream monthly trainings for a reasonable fee. I recently watched a full day training with Garrett Gunderson. Sure, all of the stuff can be found for free, or relatively inexpensive through books, but I am someone that does better with a little structure. For all of you dying to know what's in the secret sauce... Or what the classes are all about about, just check out the books and YouTube channels of the instructors. They are all at the top of their game in what they do. Overall, I'm happy with my purchase and the things I've learned have already saved me more than what I paid. Hope that helps answer the Renatus question once and for all.
