Super Helpful!!! Are there any other questions that we should ask a Title Company?

How do you know you have a Good Title Company?

Hello,

I'm new to bigger pockets and am here looking to build relationships nation wide...and world wide! The sky is the limit, right?! I am still a fairly new investor and am still working on building my power team. 

My WHY is to help people have a second chance at becoming home owners. We all have a past and life happens that can hurt us tremendously to the point of losing our home. I want to inspire people to be inspired so that they can go after and achieve their dreams while reminding them that they are worthy enough to realize those dreams.

My current strategies are Wholesale, Lease Options, and Private money lending. 

If you'd like to network with me or have any referrals please let me know!

Target Markets: Cincinnati, Detroit, Orlando, Canada - Windsor and London ON.

Thanks and I look forward to hearing from you!

-Pamela Mallory

I'm a current Elite student and have been very happy with the information from the classes. There will be many people who have decided not to go with them, which is fine. Everyone ends up paying for their education differently.

For example, my local REIA group is always advertising workshops on different strategies that Elite offers, as well as being part of the "fast-track/success" group so you can learn more, have more support, and really be successful in Real Estate. Everyone has their sales pitch. These classes they offer are cheaper per say as they're sold on an individual basis. However, they are not always full weekend workshops and you don't get recordings or refreshers on the classes.

Elite is expensive up front! I will not argue that at all. However, you can say i'm used to paying a lot of money for education because i've completed 2 Bachelor's degrees - One from University of Western Ontario (my home town) and the other from University of Cincinnati, to which I paid out of state the entire time I was there. Both I paid out of pocket...wasn't good enough for any type of scholarship either time. So I value education very much...and let me point out that I am not doing anything with either degree!...smh. C'est la vie!

When you compare individual strategies that Elite offers vs other mentoring/classes you find available, it works out to be about the same. You have to see how you learn best, what your finances are, and what you're willing to commit to.

I have nothing negative to say about Elite.

-They have been supportive.

-They have allowed me to take refreshers in Canada even though i signed up in the States.

- Life happened, and i'm currently in an extension period (I highly encourage you to complete everything in the original allotted time because this is just dragging it out as a student and you start getting cold fee if you're not in constant action) - This would status is probably the only real negative I have to say about them.

- The instructors/mentors in the US are a little bit more distant as in, they're not as available as they are in Canada and it's simply because of the Student to Teacher ratio. Canada is still a baby, so the instructors/mentors, up to now, still have the time to "hold your hand" if you will.

- Student resolutions is there to help! They have been super responsive and are quick to solve any issues I may have come across.

In the end, you have to do what you feel is best for you!

I was able to deduct practically everything and it did help my return out. I had signed up with Elite in November and didn't even have an LLC yet. My CPA was able to help me a bit, but my Elite Instructor in the 3 day course gave us some guidelines on how to deduct.

They fell into different categories of education, software, mentoring, and a couple of other things that I can't remember. 

You can ask your CPA to look at your receipt and see how things can be broken down so you can deduct all of it. 

Hope that helps!
