Thank you everyone for your valuable feedback including "Doug". The company does have very positive grade with the BBB but if you go on BBB website you will also see how many unhappy customers they have. 

Fortunately, after the 3 day workshop i called corporate and they were able to refund me my whole 3k. So i can say they waived their 3 day refund policy.Very happy with that. I wish i would of known about bigger pockets before taking on this seminar. If there is one thing my dad has taught me its "No one has the corner on knowledge", "if it sounds TOO good to be true, then it probably isnt true". 

The reason for my hasty decision was because I'm in a little bit of tough situation financially. I feel like Real Estate investing is a good way to start doing something else. I am a Union Ironworker(building skyscrapers) or was, making 75,000+ a year. Last year i had a I-beam tip over and break my leg Instantly! Surgery, lots of physical therapy, and year later I'm no where near 100% and i don't think i will ever be according to the docs. One of the worlds most dangerous jobs, go figure. So now I'm at home trying to not let me time go to waste while I'm still healing. Most likely won't go back to doing that job. So as you can see my desperation to provide for my family wife and 2 kids.

Ive done some research and found out i can join a local REI group. I've also looked into getting my real estate license. My wife has been very supportive and also wants to REI and do it together as a team. Ive also started reading the free book from bigger pockets. I know i can learn real estate investing without these guru companies, I've seen/talked to successful real estate investors with out going to these programs. i was just naive and desperate. Again i appreciate everyones feedback. If there is anything else anyone can help me with as far as what else i can do with my time (education) so that i can benefit and keep learning i will appreciate it!

@Logan A. i have not. Where can i find out about them? Is this where i would find out about a school?

My wife and i are trying to get started in Real Estate, Does anyone have any recommendations as far as courses or a school we can go to so we can obtain our license. We eventually want to be investors in real estate ( wholesaling, flipping homes) but feel like obtaining our license won't be a bad idea. The more we know and dedicate ourselves the better. thank you for your input. We live in the los angeles area.

2-3 weeks ago i attended a Free Seminar- Winning the property wars with doug hopkins (he wasn't there). Im so Eager to start a Career in Real Estate investing so i thought there was no loss in coming. I would give it a shot. After they promised me the whole world and that i would become a very successful real estate investor they convinced me to purchase the 3-day Real Estate Accelarator workshop for $2,000 where i will be taught to flip homes, and they also made purchasing tax liens seem very very lucrative through there "tax liens buyers club" so i gave into there bait and that was $997. i attended the 3 day seminar and I'm extremely disappointed. First two days were about raising your credit card limits and how successful our coach was and that if we didn't purchase the 42k program we would be losers in life in the world of real estate. Has anybody gone to the workshop and been able to get your $2000 refund? In my opinion it was a waste of my time and money. So upset at myself for falling for this stupid $3,000 trap just to pitch us another sale...Has anybody been able to successfully get a refund past the "3day no questions asked" policy??? Any opinion on how to pressure them to give me refund??
