Thanks guys, I've read a handful of forums so far. ill continue to check them out.

Was wanting to find more info on mobile homes. Would really love to know the differences between working with them compared to houses. I know they don't hold their value like a house does but we have a growing mobile home population in my area and I feel it would be smart of me to get knowledgeable on the subject. So I'm looking for anyone who has recommendations for great articles, books or websites. There's so many knowledgeable people on BP I feel there's got to be a couple of gurus in here posting good info. Really looking for info on any special legality issues regarding mobile homes, buying and selling, lease to own, and any other great venues there are for working with mobile homes.

I read your links and they sound extremely similar to what I experienced. They have Master sells men there. Me and my team honestly flip-flopped back and forth the entire seminar about buying or not buying the schooling. The high pressure salesman got to be so much that I actually slammed my hand down on the table while firmly stating that it wasn't going to happen today and walked out in the middle of a meeting. I had told him several times I just didn't think it was the right time for our team to spend $30,000 on their program. (Which wasn't even the most expensive one) and he literally pulled me and my partner's away from the rest of the seminar and pressured us. 

I was told by a very Savvy man years ago that if someone says a deal has to be done today and is rushing it, then it's a scam and they want you to buy it before you find that out.

I also know from experience that golden opportunities aren't rushed. And if he was truly trying to help me and give me a one in a lifetime opportunity that he wouldn't be begging me to take the offer. No one begs you to let them help you.

Then the salesman says you're at a discounted rate in this deal is only going to be around for today.

However I know if it is a stable company and good opportunity then it will be here tomorrow because people do not stop things that work. Obviously my salesman didn't have that same thought process.

Thank you for all your input! I truely appreciate it! We will definitely check out out the books and continue to find good solid info. 

Do any of you personally know anyone who took the course? I was interested in hearing from someone who bought into the actual legcacy program. I seem to be finding alot of reviews from people who just did the 3 day training and not the actual legacy program. 

I appreciate all the great resources you guys are telling me about.

Jay I appreciate your input and I'm honestly leaning that way.

However the cost for that type of training isn't a 3 or 7 day course it's a 6 month course with classes and flying out a mentor to guide you on your first couple of real estate investments. They have made excellent points but honestly for the price I'd be able to buy my first property and start with a hands on approach which is honestly how I learn better. I would just love to learn the loop holes and finer points.

I'm not the smartest guy with books. However I am extremely good at reading people in person. And Everytime I get excited about a loop holes he explains he then hits the entire glass with scare tactic like " well you guys can't implement this yourself" and he had half the class chant I don't know nothing about real estate. That was a complete turn off for me.. I don't react well to scare tactics it honestly makes me give push back.

I won't lie I learned skmey great info in the 3 day course but it was only about 20% of the 3 days worth learning.. the rest was a pitch or success stories/personal experiences

Hello everyone!

My wife, myself and a friend of ours has been researching the real estate world for over a year now and we have been to the 3 day Than Merrill (Fortune Builders) and the Rich Dad 3 day schooling. Which is where we heard about this website. We're already $700 plus in on the Rich dad for the 3 day schooling and are considering doing the Legacy training however it is extremely costly. Essentially the three day schooling for both companies is half learning and half convincing you to invest in their more advanced schooling. Prices ranging from $19,000 to $53,000 for Rich Dad training.

I was just curious if anyone has done the advanced Legacy training and if it's worth that costly investment? We all have college degrees and already have enough debt. I would love to hear opinions as well as other great sources. I would love to meet people in the industry and possibly network. So please don't hesitate to comment.
